palm the trash upon her and keep the
real thing himself.
"By Jove" thought Mr.. Hydenseke,
~ do believe I've hit it," and, having
conceived this idea, he lost no time in
taking steps to test it. Obviously, the
first thing to do, if possible, was to
overhaul Dymock's' lodgings on the
chance of finding the missing jewels
there. This, as the lodgings were in
Bruton street. could scarcely be done
in the same bold and burglarious man.

Ninth Week OF Congress Promises No Better
Results than Previous Cnes.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-The ninth week
Of the present session of con zress begun
today, and the result Of the work so far
accomplished cannot be said 10
be encouraging TO persons who had
hoped for a speedy adjustment sf tue great
national question which caused the Issue
Of the call for the special session. TIE
present outlook Is towards q continuation
Of the debate which has been IN progress
for the last five weeks In the senate The,
renewed talk Of compromise legislation,
however, gives the impression In some;
quarters that the end may be near.
The list OF speakers has not been oom-
plet ed for this week. and IL may be as
sumed that when IL is, the names of fsw
repeal senator's will appear upon IT, and
the debate will be left almost altogether
TO the silver men. Three Of these-Teller,
George and Morgan-are entitled to the
door at any time TO conclude speeches
which they have begun, but not finished.
Mr.. Call of Florida has signified desire
to address the senate, but this is the only
new speech formally announced
The weeks business In the house will
be confined, so far as can be stated, to
continuance of the debate on the election
bill, under the order which will exhaust
itself on the 10th inst. The debate as far
as IL has progressed has failed to develop
any of that intensity of partisan feeling so
freely predicted Of il.

THE OPERA HOUSE ENTERTAINMENT.

DR.. Flint's entertainments, nightly, at
and entertaining, if not instructive. The
one trouble is the perplexity that comes to
the audience in trying to fathom the un-
questioned phenomena of an occult force
every phase Of which is a mystery. He
readily mesmerizes four fifths of all those
who go upon the stage. Such implicitly
obey his every hypnotic suggestion while
his yonng daughter readily passes into a
cataleptic condition in which all the
senses seem suspended and all organs
cease in their functions except the heart
and the lungs, and the lungs show no
activity until the enormous weight of four
to six hundred pounds is imposed. which
she sustalns while suspended between the
backs of two chairs, one at her feet and
the other at her shoulders. The tests in
the main are innocent and, he says. entirely
harmless. His daughter in answer to
questions put by the writer, among o.her
things said that she had been daily sub
jected to operations under the influence
since she was child of seven years, yet
she had never felt any harmful effects. 1t
is certain that she is bright. intelligent,
and rosy with youth She is endowed with
the same power in a remarkable degree.
But outside or over and above the fun OF
the thing is the incomprehensibe mystery
of the power of one mind or will over that
of another. Those who are unprecedented
will find an evening at the opera house
not without many compensatiEg returns
