LIFE KEPT IN A SKELETON.
An Instance of the Power of Mind
Over Matter in Atlanta.


From the Atlanta (Ga) Evening Journal.
There is in the Providence infrmary a
man who is virtually dead, but whose
soul still clings to an cmaciated skeleton
by the wonderful power Of an active
mind
1t is a strange and wonderful case,
which puzzles the medical fraternity, and
which is causing special articles TO be
written in medical magazines.
But for the indomitabe will Of the
mans mind his body would have been
laid in the grave four months ago.
Il shall not die; | will not die.' is the
burden of his song, and he lives on, while
the human frame which is the tenement
of this power called mind, is dead, thing
of bone, fleshless and withered.
And behing it all, upholding and encour-
aging the mind to remain in control of the
wasted body there is a story of a convict
pardoned, who dreamed Of his mountain
home while behind prison bars, and now
that the shackles are off wants to see the
cottage and the trees and the green hills
again.
This is the story with its wonders for
the scientist and its pathos for the tender
hearted
w. D. Vaughan. young man from Ell
bert county, was convicted Of running an
illicit distillery-a moonshiner who made
mountain dew by the light of the
moon.
While confined in the Fulton county
Jail five months ago Vaughan, while at
tempting to open can Of oysters, pierced
his thumb with a sharp point of the tin.
A few days thereafter the wound, though
slight, became infiamed, and there was
evidence of blood poisoning
From the DOiSOniuQ the man became Ill,
and he was removed to the Providence In
firmary. where every attention was given
him. He grew worse, and was at last
thought TO be dying. Deputy United
States Marshal Mitchell telegraphed
Vaughan's father that If he wanted to
see his son alive he had better come to
Atlanta on the next train.
The father arrived, but the son did not
die.
During his sickness official pardon had
been given him liberty, and only disease
kept him from seeing the cottage home
and the mountain streams again.
AS he lay upon his bed unable to move,
scarcely breathing, the white lips muir
INJURED
u shall not, will not die"
The father was unable TO remain longer
and returned home.
The young man lived on, and is living
to-day, if the frail hold of the living mind
upon the dead body can be called life.
1t is human skeleton that lies immova-
BILE upon the couch, dead body with just
one spark Of life to keep the dust from re-
turning to dust again.
DR. J. McF Castor. one of the most
reputable physicians Of Atlanta, has been
attending Vaughan. In speaking Of the
wonderful case this morning, DR.. CASTOR
said
1t is indeed most remarkable case.

pies Of the power Of mind over matter [

not to die has been the only thing that

ing from st. Vitus' dance brought to
the hospital for treatment. The child
could not stand still or holds her hands
still, or even control her voice sutfic-
ientlv to say "Bonjour NJ. Luys." A
strong, well-buiit woman was hypno-
tzed, and the child's hands were placed
in hers. BY the aid of highly charged
magnets the nervous twItchlngs OF the
child were passed into the woman until
her strong frame was cOnvulsed by
them. She could not stand still, her
hands were in continual movement,
and, strangest OF all, when told to say
"Bonjour NJ. Luys," she spoke in the
same hesltatlng Jerking manner as the
child had done. The yOungster, on the
contrary, was perez ptiblv relieved, but

lasted Tor few hours at first, and SINH

Sometimes a debate may be won by

quarrel arose at Bagdad between
the two sects, the ShiiJes and the Sun
mites. The dispute disturbed the pub
lie peace, and the caliph summoned
the doctors of the two scots before him
for a decisive debate. The representa-
tive of the Shiites entered the audi
ence-room carrying his sandals in his
hand, instead of leaving them at the
door, as was customary.
The caliph inquired why he did this,
and the Shiite replied: Il always do SO
when | attend a reunion of learn ed
Sunnites. Is it not written that in the
time of the prophet a Hanetite doctor
stole the sandals OF a Shiite doctor"
The representative of the Haneiite
division Of the Sunnites FASTENED to
protest that this could not be true,
since there We're no Hanefites in the
time of MOhammed,
The Shiite apologized for his blunder.
Possibly" he remarked, the theft
was committed by Malekite."
The Malekite representative of
Sunnism promptly asserted that his
sect did not exist in the time of the
prophet, and the Shiite doctor then in
succession attributed the misdeed to q
Hambalite doctor, and then to u
Chafeite doctor. But the H6mbalites
and Chafeites present protested their

Thereupon the Shiite rose and adj

These Sunuite DOCTORS said he,

ties, and no Chafeites; then Sunnism

IND NJ IN Australia

In Australia, where population is
sparse and distances are great eOme re-
markable ieuts of endurance in horse
riding are credited to the mounted
police.
Trooper Power, in February, 1890,
whilo in purauit OF 81 norae- stealer
named John Smith, Travelled 766 miles
i'll 26 days without changing horses.
For one stage Of 80 miles he WAS wholly
without water, and the country was IN
such bad state for 80 miles that his
two horses had nothing to eat. He did
80 miles a day, on WORKOUT horses,
along dry stages, and with bad water or
no water at all to drink.
Trooper Wiltshire, Oh another ocCa-
sion, rode s. miles in y hours on one
horse. The same man travelled POO
miles in four days when he heard that
a comrade named Shirley had died of
thirst. He did not have macadamized
roads and plenty of fresh water like the
German officers; but he had broiling
sun to endure, sand hills to climb,
''mulga" scrub to penetrate ana was
sometimes compelled 10 take dead ami
mails out OF tie native wells before he
could use the water.-LOndOn NeWs.
