How to Play With Fire.

With the lengthening evenings of
autumn there arises demand for novel
indoor lmusements. An English paper
tells how such can be obtained, on
strictly scientific principles, in describ-
ing an entertainment at which the
writer was present.
The lecturer held up sheet of lnper
which he touched with the still glowing
wick of the candle. Instantly the
paper began to smolder, and it
smoldered up and down in narrow
line until it had written God save the
queen" which was the very last thing
we expected it would do.
Then other sheets of paper We're
taken and on some patterns were burnt
out; on others animals were drawn.
On the last there appeared very fair
sketch in stencil of the room in which
the lectare was given. This was mys-
terious. The papers were handed
round for examination, and though
some were held up to the light no
pattern could be found on them

Sensation in Connection with wisconsin's
Treasury suits.
MADISON, Wis, Oct. 90. Judge Sic
becker has caused sensation by announc-
ing that he will not try the interest suits
against the state treasurers because Of
certain reasons which he. refuses to make
public at t ais time The inference is that
the judge has been approached, but
whether al attempt to bride him has been
made or whether political influence has
been brought to bear upon him is mat
ter of speculation.
Attorney General O'Connor is dumb
founded and is loud in his denunication
OF those W.T. o have made it impossible for
an upright judge to try the treasury suit,
and the attorneys for the defendant are
equally indignant and want to know what
has happened. Judge Siebecker says that
If he made known at this time his reasons
for withdrawing it would be impossible
to get fair and impartial trial OF the
cases In the state Of Wisconsin. He
promises de velopmeuts hereafter.

BETWEEN DIVORCE AND MARRIAGE

erabIy Well Employed.


erabIy Well Employed.
BUCHANAN Mich, Oct. 26.-Mary Mach
EFT, of this city, married George Swear
niger at IL, and daughter was born to
them. They were divorced, and Swear
niger went to Colorado aud made for
tune in mining, while she married S. j.
Sherwood, who soon died. Shortly after
his death she was welded to George
Thompson. teller in bank here. A few
years rolled by and Thompson was sent to
state prison at jackson, and his wife se-
cured divorce. Immediately upon his
release he and Mrs. Swearinger- Sherwood
Thompson were married again.
Another Divorce and Swearinger Again.
A year ago he went away and his wife
got another divorce on the ground of de-
sertion, the decree being granted last
Tuesday. Ten days ago Swearinger, the
first husband, came back and a reconcilia-
ton was effected. Friday morning
marriage license was issued for Swear
niger to marry his former wife, and the
ceremony was performed by the Rev. J.
c. Colby, an old Methodist, who married
the same couple just twenty years ago
Swearinger, while in Colorado, married q
woman who died four years ago.
And Now Here Comes Thompson.
Mrs. Swearinger is now SO years old,
and in twenty years has doubly married
the same man twice, has secured three
divorces and has been widow. She was
a grandmother at 80. The peculiar feature
of the case is that two weeks ago Thomp-
son wrote to his ex-wife, inclosed some
money and said that be was going to re-
turn to her. The letter was dated San
Francisco, and was not received until the
day after the woman got her divorce.
Mrs. Swearinger is handsome, and from
the numerous offers cannot think mar
rage is failure.

GAVE DoNNeLLY A DOLLAR.

The Baconian Sage INDICATED by . Jury
of Twelve Men.
MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 26.-The fair name
OF Ignatius Donnelly, politician, littera-
teur, and philosopher, was damaged by
the St Paul Pioneer Press to the extent
OF Il. AT least SO found jury Of twelve
citizens OF Hennepin county at o'clock
Saturday evening. Mr.. Donnelly had
sued for s1oo. 900, but he was just as happy
as school boy over securing the verdict
for dollar. When he heard the result
he slapped his lawyer on the back and
said: Good! Good! Good I didn't want
the newspapers money, but sought vim
dicatiol. This got. The Pioneer Press
editor has been attacking me with most
evident malice for twenty five years, and
this squares accounts.
Charged Him with Plagiarism.
Judge Flandreau. who summed up for The
Pioneer Press, was very rough on the sage
OF Nininger. He said: "Why. Atlantis
Is the worst plagiarism a man could
write 1t is entirely from the French.
'Ragnarok' is the worst fraud ever per-
petrated. AS for that cryptogram, it is
the worst nonsense even inflicted on the
public. Dnnnelly's DR.. Huhuet is an
autobio yrapiy of himself. This man has
devoted his life to j. Donnelly. Every
thing Is done for him. He never did any
thing In this world but hold Office. He
hasn't ever created anything. When he
couldn't get in any other party he started
the party OF Donnelly and went it alone.
The Case Given to the Jury.
In closing the case for Donnelly Mr..
Wellington said. that the editor of The
Pioneer Press had been maliciously at
lacking Mr.. Donnelly for over twenty
years. The most important point in
Judge Hooker's charge was that unless
"they were satisfied Donnelly gave the
letter to the Washington correspondent
OF The Pioneer Press Donnelly was en-
tilted &c recover damages, even if only
nominal" The jury was nearly five
hours reaching a yer dict. Ten ballots
were taken in all the amount of damages
ranging all the way from $50. 900 to 81, the
sum finally agreed upon. Three jury
men were in favor of giving the sage

Then came the elderly man in evening
dress with the Song of the Cremationist."
The use Of the cemetery scene was appar-
ent in that part of the exercises. The
champion resurrectionist Of the world"
walked out upon the stage in Little
Lord Fauntieroy costume with polished
leather leggings. He twirled little
English fore-aud-aft cap in his hand. He
told the audience that night doctors,
cadaver catchers, body snatchers, stiff
raisers, vampires and overtakers were
simply pet names for grave robbers.
An Illustration from Life.
After the professional resurrectionist
had defended his business as the safe
guard of science and complained bitterly
OF the low prices that the Georgetown
Medical college paid for assistance in his
line, he demonstrated the way in which a
body is stolen from grave. A tall man
walked out from the wings and concealed
himself behind one of the mounds that
represented a grave. He was the corpse.
Then Professor Selden in his shirt sleeves
came on with long rope to which was
attached an iron hook.
Delighted the Audience.
He explained its use to the resurrection
list and the resurrectionist told the audi
ence all about it. Professor Selden and the
lecturer then shoveled imaginary dirt
from the grave for a few minutes. The
resurrectionist's muffled cry of glee in
formed the audience that the coffin had
been uncovered. The long rope with the
hook was lowered and the coffin lid was
pulled up to the geat relief and delight of
the audience. Then Professor Selden got
In the grave and pulled up the corpse.
Close of the Performance.
The resurrectionist brought out bag
and the corpse put his feet in it. A car
riage, drawn by horse with irregular
footsteps, rolled up of. the stage. Pro-
fessor Selden and the resurrectionist
caught the corpse by the arms and pulled
him off the stage, and the corpse aided
them by kicking. This delighted the au-
dience again, and there was tumultuous
applause. The elderly man in evening
dress glided out, and Immediately played
3Home, Sweet Home" and the audience
took the hint.

CHICAGO, Oct. 24-W. F. Burns, a ma
tive of San Francisco, lately engaged in
the secret service of the Gillian govern!
ment under Balmaceda, has been in Chi.
cago for nearly a week. During that time
he has been in every day communication
with the state department, and to-day he
will leave for Washington for a consulta
ton with Assistant Secretary Wharton,
which may result in adding to the seri-
business Of the present strained relations
with the CHILEAN government. Mr.. Burns
asserts TIL at while in Berlin he wss thrown
into prison without trial by the German
police at the instigation OF the Gillian
government, and he demands satisfaction
from Chill and Germany. According to
his statements he was in Berlin purchas-
ing arms for Balmaceda when the news
Of the Balmaceda governments fall was
received.
Thu ks Egan Must Come Home.
When asked what he thought of the
position Of Minister Egan, he said:
] don't think he can stay there Egan was
certainly hand in glove with Balmaceda, and
even if the junta are a lot of scoundrels as I
believe they are, they have The legal right to
turn him back to America. They are not
afraid of this country-none of the South
American nations are. All their dealings are
with European countries. Why, when the
United States sent the Tallahassee or some
other tub II Ecuador a year or two ago that
little country sent down to Chill to ask il Chilli
would help Ecuador in a fight with the United
States. Think of that!
Mr.. Burns declared with good deal Of
earnestness that he didn't believe Balma-
ceda was dead. He would not tell why.

Professor Charles w. Selden, A. NJ, NJ
D., Is not known to fame under that
name. He is a tall, athletic looking man
with a red face and mustache and hair
that are quite gray. An elderly man in
evening dress glided out from the wings
and seated himself at the piano. He
played a few bars and then broke loose in
a song called "The Old Sexton" in a voice
so well developed that the leaves on the
trees in the background rustled. Then
IAN eminent clergyman" who was down
on the programme for lecture on modes
OF burial, appeared, and after pouring out
little water from the pitcher and clear
ing his throat, began his lecture. The
clergyman was a round-faced, earnest
looking young man.
Approved of Body Snatching.
He recited piece about death and diff
ferent modes of burial, and whenever he
forgot his lines he deliberately took a
drink Of water and a man in the wings
prompted him. The supply of water was
exhausted before he wound up his speech.
The eminent clergyman approved Of body
snatching because it was necessary for the
advancement of science. He advised his
listeners to leave their bodies to the dis
secting room when they died.
Talked of Carving People.
The gray haired man in evening dress
then came out and sang II Would Not
Live Away" By this time the audience
was wandering what it was all about.
Then "a distinguished professor of surgery
appeared. He was to talk on surgery ard
dissection, SO the programme said. His
baggy black trousers and white stockings
that showed above low shoes strongly re-
sembled those of the eminent clergy
man." The audience knew that it wasn't
the clergyman, however, for he wore
stiff, white waistcoat and his hair was
long and gray. The audience also knew
that he was Frenchman, for he said "ze"
instead Of 3the" and his gestures were diff
ferent. He gave history of surgery with
the aid of the water pitcher and the man
in the wings. The French scientist also
approved of body snatching
