CHAPTER XVII.

Gn1zZLE MEADE AND INDIAN JOE
The authorities immediately sent TO
Wills Hill, where Martin Lee hat bid
himself. But there was no sign of the
sail,r, nor wosthere eny evidence that
any ono had been there.
When the officers reported this, rumors
Of all kinds we're circulated.
First, it was said that although no sign
of Martin Lee was found. q hole was
there large enough to bury adozen IN.
Janet Lee and her mother, after making
way with Martin Lee, had called in the
witches cid, and had buried him so deep
he never could be found till judgment
day.
Second, it wassaid NJ artin was, like his
sister-in-law and niece, in league with
the devil, and had been caught by the heel
By the evil one and dragged down into he
earth, and thus was in hell then, where all
witches and their familiars were sure
TO go.
Third, the hole was deception 1t was
freshly made, as all could see, and Mar
tin was near at hand, and concealed him
self in it, but whoever put foot near 1T
slipped and fell into it, and was in niger
of being drag ed into the bowels OF the
earth. The officers, knowing this, and
fearin for their lives, reported no one
was in sight.
The manner in which the devil figured
in oil these stories demonstrated the hold
that fear of the evil one had on al the
people of Salem.
There we're sensible men and women
who were amazed at these stories, but
thev we're discreet. They knew that to
attempt to set the public right would but
subject them TO suspicion. They wisely
kept their own counsel, and were thus
undisturbed at their own tiresiles, where
as. had they avowed boldly what they af-
terwards averred, they might have saved
human lives, and lessened the period OF
the gre test folly ever known In Ameri-
can history.
Where was Martin Lee? If he was
murdered, where was he buried? the Off
GERS Of the law asked. And if he w,re
alive, why did he not make himself known:
If he were alive, yet did not show him.
self, and save his relatives from death on
the sca9old, wlat was his crime before
he killed John Winslow horse aid sheep:
These we're the questions the authori-
tie propounded, and which remained un-
ANSWERED.
Now, however, q new witness appeared.
This was Indian Joe, who related with
great minuteness of detail how he wit
messed Mortin Leo cut the horse and
lambs throat. Questioned why he had
not made the truth known at once, Joe
answered no stood in awe of the cruel
man. He feared that the man who did
these things would kill him. He also
feared, in case no stranger could be
found, the crime would be laid upon
him.
So now all Salem knew that Martin
Lee was a great monster, and had always
been monster, and was we'll out OF the
wsy. And because his own people hao

resolution rendering the acknowledgmen's
of the government and the people OF lne
United States to each OF the foreign govern
neats that co-operated In the CnlcaSo bAPo-
sition, was amended and passed.
GOTH DAY.-The entire day in the Senate
was taken up with the argument upon the
Silver Purchase Repeal bill, although some
minor legislative matters were disposed OF by
unanim Gus consent. Mr.. Teller (Rep J, 81
Colorado, and Mr.. Stewart (Rep.), oil Ne
yada. continued the speeches which they
have be en- delivering at intervals for severai
weeks and Mr.. Squire (Rep.), OF Washing,
ton. expressed his views in explanation ana
advocacy OF an amendment heretofore onered
by him.
10Th DAY.-The greater part Of the day In
the Senate was taken up In disposing OF
remnants of speeches by Senators Stewart
and Jones, OF Nevada, and Teller, OF Colo
RADIO. About four O'Clock, when their was
no one seeking the floor, Mr. Voorhees, called
for vote on the pending amendment which
was that offered by Mr.. PETER, for the free
C c)inage of silver and the re-enactment OF
the Free Coinage act OF 1887. After some
desultory attempts to postpone action, the
vote was taken, and the PETER resolution
WAS rel cted. This left the House bill,
known as the Wilson bill, with only one
amendment to it pending, that amendment
being the substitute reported from the FL
nance Committee, and known as the Voor-
hees bill. Unanimous consent was given TO
have the vote taken on the substitute, with
the understanding that the effect OF that
vote would be simply to let the substitute
take the place Of the House bill, and be open
to all amendments that might be offered to
it in other words, it simpliiled tho parlia-
mentary status. The vote on the substitute
was-yeas So, nays 9. The first amendment
offered to it was one by Mr.. Perkins, of Cali
fornia, for the coinage OF American silver,
with q seignorage OF twenty per cent Tor the
Treasury No final action was taken upon
1t, but several short speeches were made
list DAY.-After four important and inter
esting speeches, delivered by Senators VOL
colt, Sherman, German, and voorhees,. the
Senate proceeded to vote on various amend.
ments as they were offered. They were all
voted down. The only amendment which
came near being adopted was one offered by
Mr.. Berry, of Arkansas, to revive and re-
enact the Bland Allison bill, with its coinage
of two million silver dollars month. Alter
all the amendments were voted down the
bill was taken out of committee OF the wholo
(where it had been considered all this time)
and reported to the Senate. The bill is still
open to amendment in the Senate.

forcements
A detail Of six officers was summoned, and
at;11.15 the prisoner closely guarded was
taken out of the station, hurried through the

into the wagon in jIffy. The officers were
barely seated before the wagon was in
motion and, amid the mutterings OF the
crowd. was hurried off to the North Side,
where the prisoner was lodged In the county
Jail for safe keeping.

THE FAIRS FINANCES.
The Total Paid Admissions Expected
to Reach 2l,000,000.

With only one full week left Of the official
Exposition season a close estimate can be
given of the profits made by the hundreds OF
concessionajres in Jackson Park and the
Midway. Chief Clerk Blackman, OF the ad-
minstrations and collections departments,
figures that the profits of the concessionaires
will aggregate $4,000, 900, after deducting
the percentage to the Exposition, This rep
resents about 20 per cent OF the gross re-
cEipts. Most of the coneessIonaires have
made money after paying from 25 to 90 per
cent. into the Exposition treasury The
Ferris Wheel Company will pay q profit oil
about $3.50 900, after deductlng $50 900 for
cost and so per cent. Of the receipts paid to
the Fair.
But the men who will leave the Worlds
Fair with fortunes in their pockets are Col

by President Higinbotham when they
opened negotiations TO put the Wild West
Show on the ground that it was not refined
enough. They leased big tract OF land
Just outside the Fair gates, and reaped q
golden harvest

hour Monday was 19,72,996 and Superin-
tendent Tucker said the figures would 80 to

The proceedings in obtaining control oil
the city government in Cleveland by the
newly elected mayor should cause the
general assembly to lose no time in pass
ing law to establish a certain date Tor
school directors, councilmen, township
city, village and precinct officials TO take
their seats. The statutes say that they
shall appear and qualify within ten days
after the election; but still that does not
make It clear as 10 just what date
they shall assume authority. For instance
the mayor insists upon appearing the
day he receives official notice Of election
and assuming control, while the council
desires 10 wait until the ten days expire
