AFRAID OF POISON
AIMS Dickinson Drank of tho
Dregs of Poverty.
SHE DREADED THE PooRHoUsE.
It Was This Fear That Dethroned tho
Reason Of the Once Gifted Woman.

Her Expenses to the Asylum Paid by the
Poor Board-The Superintendent Says
Her Physical Condition IL Very Bad
She Was Too Proud to Make Known
Her Impoverished Condition.
WnKEsB ARE, Pa, Feb. 29.-Poor
Anna Dickinson" are the words on
everybody lips to-day. Her condition
is most pitiable one. It has been as
certained that she drank of the dregs of
poverty. For a year past she has been
destitute. She dreaded the poorhouse,
and it was this fear that dethroned her
reason. When it came to removing her
to the Danville Asylum the Poor Board
of West Pittston had to defray her ex-
penses.
She was waited upon by a reporter, &C.
companied by Superintendent Shultz,
during the morning. DIR. Shultx asked
her how she rested last night.
Chow did you restP" was the sarcastic
reply. ''Take me out of here" she con-
tinued. This is a conspiracy gotten up
by enemies; know what their object is;
they want to poison me-"
The doctor would allow no further
conversation with the lady. He said:
"The patient needs rest and good food
more than anything else. Her physical
condition is very bad. In fact, believe
if her body was built up her mental con-
dition would be all right. The superin-
tendent said that when the lady was
brought to the institution Thursday she
was inclined to be violent, but she ate
well. Yesterday morning she was in q
laughing mood.
DIR. Schultz further said it will be
weeks before he can give an opinion as
Tn the QrtS condition Che H.a
cured in a short time and may never be
cured.
Miss Dickinson was so proud that she
would not make known her impoverished
condition. Had she done so help would
have forthcoming from all parts of the
Union.
At one time her banker says her credit
was good for 100000. Her theatrical
venture almost ruined her.

COlOred Preacher in New Jersey Want-
ed by Connecticut Police.
ELIZABETH, N. j., Feb. 2S.-A negro,
who says he is the Rev. James NJ Rohrer,
has been arrested here on the belief that
he is swindler, known as DR.. Charles
Lewis, who is wanted by the New Haven,
Conn. authorities for fleeing a family
out of $193 in that city.
When arrested he showed a Baptist
minister's certificate of ordination.
Afterward he tore up the certificate,
and also four bogus checks for 81 200
each, payable on the Boston National
Bank. The checks were dated Kingston,
Jamaica.
He had book entitled ''The Art of
Writing Love Letters"
This dispatch Has been received from
Chief Bollman of the New Haven police:
"Cannot get requisition. The victims
will reach Elizabeth tonight. Hold him,
il possible, until their arrival. Prisoner
is an old offender and has done time in
State prison."
The question arises whether the Con-
necticut authorities can obtain the ex-
tradition of Bonner. IT is the general
belief that Governor Albeit will do az
Governor Hill did and refuse to recog-
nize any requisition that may be issued
by Governor Buckley.

Letters of Warning.
SCRANTON, Pa, Feb. sS.-Prioeburg,
Shree miles from this city, is excited over
report that two well-known mine fore
men have received visits and ominous
letters from Molly Maguires or White
Caps. William Leitenhan, a docking
boss was called upon about o'clock in
the afternoon by either a stranger or q
man very cleverly disguised.
He was asked if he was docking boss
for John Jermyn. He answered that he
was. The stranger then informed him
that he (the strangely was a member of q
White Cap band, and they insisted that
Mr.. Leitenhana surrender his position at
once. Should he fail to do so dire pen
atty would be inflicted.
Mr.. Leitenhan refuses to continue in
the position Of docking boss. The au-
thorities have made a thorough search
for the stranger, but have been unable to
find him.
Walter Jermyn, superintendent of the
mine, who is a son of John Jermyn, the
millionaire, and Mr.. Gilgallon, the out
side foreman, are in receipt of letters
warning them to give up their positions.
These letters bear the well-known seal
of the Molly Maguires, whose reign of
terror in this region is still we'll remeD-
bered. The notes of warning contain
crudely drawn collins and skulls and
cross bones.
