Inc pIdcJICdI Joker Is generally 1901
Often he is worse-he is a fiend. Along
with the idiotic tendency Of his mind is
a devilish delight in torturing others.
Such people ought to be dealt with by
law.
The New York papers give the history
of Harry Woodson, a minstrel who is
now a maniac-the victim of practical
jokes He was, to start with, nervous
and timid fellow, and not TOO strong men
tally. Cruel hearted persons took advan-
tage of this fact to torture him for their
own delight
On one occasion while he was asleep a
lay figure was placed by his side in the
bed, the hand of which, covered with a
wet glove, was laid across his face He
| awoke, screaming with fright, and his
tomenters laughed while he lay with
ing, as he imagined, in the cold and
clammy grasp Of a corpse.
On another occasion, as he entered a
dark dressing-room, grinning. skeleton,
illuminated with phosphorus, confronted
him, lying ON a shelf He fell in spsams,
and while unconscious the cause of his
fright was removed and he never knew
whether he had seen a ghost or was tor
mented by some terrible hallucination.
On still another occasion Woodson,
While asleep in his room, was awakened
by scratching on his door and was hor
rified at seeing human skull swinging
to and fro near the ceiling. He was too
much frightened to speak, and his tor
mentors also frightened at his silence,
| burst open the door. He was found
curled up under the bed clothing insen-
sible The skull had been tied to stick
and poked through the open transom by
some foolish trickster who stood on a
chair in the hall just outside the door.
Once he found marble tombstone
with his name on it in black letters,
glowing with phosphorus, staring at him
from the foot of his bed; then his trunk
was nailed to the ceiling of the house so
he could not move it, and again sheet
iron stove dropped out of the flies on the
stage few feet from Inn.
The last act in the awful drama was
played on him at Omaha about two
weeks ago, He was warned by his tor
mentors not to set on the proper train for
Denver, where the show was to stop
next, because every seat concealed a
fiend waiting to take his life. He took
another train and was carried to FL Paso
where he was subsequently found, hope
less maniac. He is in constant fear of
death in some mysterious and violent
manner, and his mental condition is at
tributed to the treatment to which he
has been subjected
Besides wife who is an actress he
has daughter, five years Of age, who is
with her mother.
Could the fiends in the Internal regions
be more cruel at heart than the brutal
tormenters Of this poor fellow?

II doesn't follow because a man is not
in his right mind that he is not capable
OF making money. At least, that is the
testimony of an eminent expert in insan-
ty, who testified in the Field case in New
York the other day. This experttol of
patient of his own who had made
something like a million dollars during
the past twelve years, during which time
he has been undoubtedly insane. This
appears not to have been an exceptional
case, either, as this doctor informed the
jury that he had known great many
lunatics who were still in active bust
ness, and who had been marvelausly sue
cessful financially. Such testimony is
calculated to excite incredulity, but, as
1t comes from an expert, we suppose it
will have to be taken for gospel truth.

CONTESTED NOBLE ELECTION.

A petition was filed in the SUI
preme Court yesterday, to annul
the election of all the five Oahu
Mobiles chosen on February Sd. The
case is set for hearing on the Dist
of March, and the order and notice
have been published.
The petitioners contend, in brief,
that the descriptive matter and
names on the ballots should have
been in both English and Ha-
waiian, whereas English only was
used. The language of the statute
on the subject is as follows:
SECTION IS. The ballot for Repre-
sentatives shall be of white paper and
the ballot for Mobiles of blue paper.
Specimen ballots shall be of red or
green paper. The paper shall be of
uniform weight, thickness and of the
same sizing color. 1t shall bear no
word, motto, device, sign or symbol
other than allowed by this Section,
and shall be so printed that the type
shall not show trace on the back.
Besides the name or names to be voted
| for, it shall contain nothing excepting
| the words, ELECTION for the year"
| the name of the office and the name of
| the Division for Mobiles or District for
Representatives. And in the case OF
| a special election it may also contain
| the words specifying the term of the
office and also the words Especial
Election"
The native version contains, OF
course, the same matter, the words
in quotation marks being in Ha-
waiian instead of in English. The
petitioners claim that the meaning
of the statute is that the words pre-
scribed shall be in both languages
The effect of decision in favor
of the petitioners would be, in
theory, to invalidate all the cleo
tions held throughout the group
but, in point of fact, no such result
could follow, because to-day is the
last day allowed by law for contest
ing an election in the Supreme
Court. There remains, however
to the Legislature the power to pass
upon the election of it's members
and the same question could be
raised again there.
