Natures Secret Secured.

DANBURY, Conn.,, November 3.-Con-
necticutt has a new prophet, James D.:
Waugh, of Norwalk. After sixteen years
study he claims to have wrestod q great
secret from nature.
Prophet Vaughn will not make his
method public yet for fear others may
claim the credit of his great discovery,
but in due time the public shall know all
he says.
According to Mr.. Vaughn's theory the
earth, as it revolves on its axis, generates
electricity by friction with thesun's rays,
and after certain number of revolutions,
The refuses to say how many,) the elec-
tricity gathers at a certain point on the
earth's surface, where it attracts air and
the moisture in the atmosphere until tho
vicinity is filled with it. Then myste-
rious something, which Mr.. Vaughn calls
"source," happens along that way and
comes into contact with the electrified
moisture and then there is trouble. There
is tremendous shock and the accumula-
ted air rushes violently in the direction OF
the sun.
Here's your cyclone, and this action
upon the atmosphere causes rain or SNOW
or hail, according to the temperature.
Mr.. Vaughn says it is amusing to read
in the school books the statement that
earthq uakes are caused by violent con-
vulsions in the interior Of the earth.
"That is all nonsense" says the prophet.
sEarthquakes are caused by the shock
produced when the electrified air is inva-
ded by this mysterious source"
And he can prove, he says, that the dis
turbance starts from somewhere on the
surface of the earth. He has reports from
Pennsylvania where an earthquake
frightened the people of an entire town
ship, while men who were at work in q
deep mine missed it all and were not at

Monument to Mr. Davis.

RICHMOND, VA, November 5;.A
committee representing the Ladies,
Hollywood Memorial Association called
on Mrs. Jefferson Davis to-day with
the view of expressing the desire of that
association to be allowed the custody OF
the remains of Mr.. Davis. Various places
of sepulture were talked of including the
grounds of the White House of the Con-
federacy.
Mrs. Davis said that her husband had
often expressed his aversion to any pub
lie, noisy thoroughfare as place of bur-
ial and had desired quiet, secluded place
for himself, where his whole family
might rest near him. She said she had
finally decided on Hollywood Cemetery,
but had not as yet decided on tho exact
spot. She assured the ladies that as soon as
her selection was made and the interment
took place, she would then turn over the
whole section to the Hollywood Memorial
Association.
Mrs. Davis has a son (Joseph) buried
in Hollywood. It is also the place OF In
terInent of some eighteen thousand Con:
federate soldiers. Mrs. Davis expressed
her earnest desire to make Richmond hel
future home, and said it was no longer a
question of anything but means. 1t she
can make satisfactory financial arrange.
ments she will soon be back here to speno
the rest of her days. The site OF the
monument to Mr.. Davis will be left in
the hands of the Davis Monument Asso-
citation.

She did not know She was Frt.'

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, November 9.-The
Kansas City Court Of Appeals to-day de-
cide.t the case of Eda Hickam against
James uickam, administrator of the es-
tate of Joseph Hickam, appealed from
Cooper County. 1t was reversed and re-
manded.
1t was the case of former slave who
was kept in ignorance of the fact that she
was free for twenty-four years after the
emancipation proclamation. Eda II LEX
am, prior to the war, was the property OF
Joseph Hickam, now dead. lie lived in
NIoniteau County. At the time of the
abolition of slavery in Missouri the plain
tiff was % years old. She had no educa-
ton and had been in the Hickam family
from childhood, and had very little ac-
quaintance outside of the family. She
says that during the war and until the
death of her cold master" she was not
allowed to leave the premises except In
the company of a member OF the family,
that she was not allowed to visit any OF
the members of her own race, and no
colored person, not even her stepfather,
was permitted to see her alone; that she
was never permitted to go to Church or
public gatherings of any kind, and lived
in absolute ignorance of the fact that the
negroes had been set free or that she was
free woman until the death of her mas
ter.
During the whole Of the time, from the
abolition Of slavery until the death of her
master, twenty-four years and five days,
she lived and served as his slave, in igno-
rance of her rights and without remune-
ration, except what she received as slave
food and clothes.
In December, 1889, the plaintiff present
ed to the Probate Court of Cooper Coun-
ty, for allowance against the estate of Jo-
seph Hickam, bill of 81 LAO, being S. a
month for her term of service. The case
was tried before jury, and the plaintiff
received an award of S7S5.
The defendant appealed to the Circuit
Court and verdict was rendered for the
defendant. The plaintiff appealed, and
this morning tho Court Of Appeals hand
ed down an opinion reversing the case
and remanding it for new trial.

Fact against Fiction.

There is no figment Of the Imagination
If it is at all within the limit of possi-
bilities-more curious or strange than
some things that actually happen. The
following is an instance in proof OF this
A few years ago Frank Millet, the
Well-known artist, war corresponding ana
story writer, published a short story in
leading magazine which had as its princl-
nal features tho mysterious killing OF q
Partisan artist in his own studio. web
of circrmstancial evidence led to the ar
rest of a model who had been in the habit
Of posing for him, But through scme
chain of circumstances, which the writer
of this has now forgotten, the murder-it
murder it can he callcd-was found to
have been caused by the discharge OF a
firearm through tho force of capillary at
traction. The firearm was used by the
artist as studio accessory, and was huns
in such a manner that he was directly IN
line with it. It's discharge occurred
when he was alono in his studio. Ihe
story was vivid and ingenious 11lGht OF
the Imagination. Now for it's parallel in
fact:
A recent number of the Albany La'p
Journal tells Of the arrest Of q man upon
the charge of killing his cousin. The dead
man was found lying upon lounge about
3 o'clock in the afternoon, with 32-call'
bre ball in his brain. The cousin, wDo
had an interest of 100000 in his death,
was alone with him in the house at the
time. The discovery Of the real cause Of
his death was due to the lawyer of the ac-
cused, who took the rifle from which the
ball had been fired, loaded and hung 1t
upon the wall, and then marked the form
of a man upon white sheet and placed 1t
upon lounge where the man had been
found. Then heavy cut-glass pitcher
of water was placed upon shelf above.
Tho temperature was 900 in the shade.
The pitcher Of water acted as sun
glass, and the hot rays OF the sun shining
through the water were refracted directly
upon the cartridge cham ber of the rifle.
Eight witnesses were in the room, and
few minutes after 3 o'clock there was
puff and report, and the ball struck the
outlined form back of the ear, and the
theory of circumstantial evidence was
exploded.
This is interesting, not only because the
real occurrence is quite as strange as the
imagined one, but because the fact came
after tho fiction and parallclled 1t so close

When the devil wants man he doesn't

he goes to Church.
"The Lord redeemeth the soul of his

Him shall be desolate."
The devil is always sure of catching q

Weeds never grow when watched, but

The best places in heaven will be filled
by those who have been the most faithful

The world is full Of people who would
rather 60 to hell in their OVID way, than
to go to heaven in your way.
It is hard to get the world to believe in
the religion of peopls who never take
their hands out of their pockets.
We have to comply with Gcd's condi-
tious to raise all ear Of corn, and we have
to do the same thing to obtain salvation.
There are people who pr"Aably think

There have been Pilates and Judasss

Train Robbery ut Omaha.

OMAHA, NEB., November 5.-Passcn-
gers on the Missouri Pacific train which
left Omaha at 1880 last night were treat
ed to an old-fashioned "hold-up" at West
Side Suburb at II o'clock. Four masked
men took charge of the train when it
stopped at the station, one covering the
engineer and fireman with rifle, while
the others. with drawn revolvers, pro-
ceeded to plumber the train. They APP
preached the coaches and ordered the
passengers to throw their hands up.
At the door they retreated and attacked
the mail car. BY threatening to blow open
the door with dynamite the messenger
was induced to admit the robbers. The
officers refuse to give any information as
to the amount of booty obtained, but it is
said that large sums from Kansas City
and st. Louis banks were taken. The Of
ficers went in pursuit of the robbers, who
are armed, but on foot.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
It is estimated that tho robbers who
held up the Missouri Pacific train last
night secured $4,000. West Sido is 4
small station on the line just outside the
city limits. The surroundings are such
MS to tempt those engaged in train rob-
berry, as hut little assistance could be rcn-
dered. When the trair reached Elkhorn
crossing, about mile beyond West Side,
and stopped to whistle, two of the robbers
jumped into the cab and covered the en-
gineer with revolvers. Others in the par
ty turned their attention to the Pacific
Express Car and held up Messenger
Green with couple OF miniature Calling
Guns at his head. Green was ordered to
open the express safe or have his body
perforated with bullets. Green opened
the strong box and was bound and cover
ed with revolvers: AS quickly as posi-
Die the entire contents Of the safe were
dumped into the bag. Switchmon and
baggagemen were compelled to walk back
down the track mile or two in order to
flag other trains After the hold-up the
train ran to Portal, eight miles distant,
back to pick up the fireman and brake
man. None of the passengers or crew
were hurt or robbed.
