CATHERINE HARRISON, WITCH.

A Paper on the Early Witch Lore of Con-

DR.: G. J. Hoadly read a paper on
''Catherine Harrison, Witch, " at meet

were undoubtedly executed for WITCH
craft in Connecticut, and there were
others about whom there might be some
doubt. This community was not swept
by the superstition as were some parts
Of Massachusetts,, but there were those
here who held to it.
Catherine Harrison was house serv-
ant before her marriage, and one Of the
daughters Of the house where she work.
ed made oath that she was a notorious
liar, Sabbath breaker and fortune
teller" The dispositions said she had
caused sickness to some people, death
to others, had an unholy influence over
animals, had been seen to appear as a
calf and change back to her own shape,
and that her form or face had frequent
~ appeared at peoples bedsides and
other unlikely places. At this trial she
was not convicted. She was arrested
again in May, 1869, and again commit
ted to Jail. At the following term of
court she was indicted, pleaded not
guilty and was tried before q jury. This
jury then failed to agree, and she was
remanded to Jail until court should con-
vene again in the fall. At that term the
jury rendered verdict Of guilty, but
the court was not satisfied. It obtain
ed an expert opinion on witchcraft from
some ministers, and still not being sat-
isfed referred the matter to the general
court She remained in prison until May,
1870, when the general court released her
on the payment Of the ':.just fees'' of the
trial and on condition she should leave
the state.
Catherine Harrison left the state and
went to Westminster, N. Y, but her
reputation preceding her the inhabit-
ants complained to the governor. For
some time she was placed under bonds
for good behavior. She was afterward
released. -Hartford Times.

An Eccentric Character.

It was at night, when the lower part
OF Broadway was as silent as a village
street. A lone cab was crawling along,
it's driver comfortably hunched forward
smoking a cigar. Suddenly there was a
crash, the sharp rattle Of broken glass
on the pavement, and leg protruded
through one of the cab windows. The
few pedestrians and one policeman who
heard and saw were startled, and the
observing Sun man had dismal forebod-
ings of having to go back to the Office
and write a story about mystery or
possibly the tragedy Of a Broadway cab.
But the driver remained comfortably
hunched, did not miss a puff Of his ci-
gar, and the horse logged on until the
policeman motioned to the driver to stop.
"What's all this?" he asked.
tits all right answered the driver.
*'But let's have look, said the OFF,
Ger.
He peered into the cab, which con-
tanned but one person, a man, who, OBJ
serving the officer, remarked in any
thing but tragic, in fact, in the friend
lest Of tones:
So 'F'ser, les all have 'nozzer.'
''Drive on," said the policeman and
added, But don't want any more of
this cab window smashing on Broad
way"
HE can't smash any MORE" the
driver said, gathering up his reins. "He
smashed the left door glass at Duane,
the front glass at Howard and the right
door glass here at Grand. He's all
right. He does this about once month. -
''G'ni', 'f'ser,' said the fare.
"Good night, sir" replied the off,

II wish I was dog" he said,

His wife bestowed her tenderest care

The gravest error she commits
Of all her married life
Who casts aside as "no account

She frowned and scowled upon he1

But smiled upon her pet.
I do not wonder that man

And wish himself dog.

On sweet revenge I'd feast.

Almsgiving ms Prnctfced Toward the Lat.
ter End of the Empire.
1t would be great mistake to sup
pose that pagan Rome did not know or
did not practice almsgiving. Under
the republic large sums were often dis
bursed to secure popularity and influ-
ence; but toward its close philosophy
promoted truly philanthropic, instead
of an ostentatious and selfish, expen-
diture- to succor widows and orphans,
to redeem captives, and to bury the
dead. From the beginning of the Sec
ond century. state aid was bestowed
monthly on the children of the poor
families.
When Antoninus lost his beloved
but not very meritorious wife, Faus-
tina, he founded in her honor q char
table institution for poor girls, who
were termed puellae Faustinae. The
example thus given was followed by
private individuals, and Pliny made
many noble gift during his life,
known to us through his not possess
ing the specially Christian virtue OF
concealing his own good deeds.
A lady of Tarracina gave eight thou
sand pounds to found an institution
| for poor children. and charitable
legacies wers not uncommon and
epitaphs were sometimes written
which Represented q dead man con.
graduating himself on having beer
| merciful and friend to the poor. A
society largely animated by so benevo
lent . spirit was ono prepared to ap

ORIGIN OF THE LIBERTY CAP


Known as the Emblem Of Freedom In the
Days of tho Roman Empire.
The liberty cap" that bag-shapcd
head-gear so often seen on the head OF
the goddess of liberty, and which sur
mounts the national colors on nearly
all our silver coins, owes its origin to
the Roman empire. where it was given
to slaves as sign of their manumis-
sieu. Tho principal significance of the
liberty cap to the American mind is
not, however, its Roman origin, but
rather its use as the official cap Of the
successive doges of republican Venice,
that model of the most stable govern
ment ever framed by man." In the
Doge's palace at Venice there is gall
lery full of portraits of the men who
ruled the republic for seven hundred
years, and the conspicuous place oc-
cupied by the liberty cap" in
these portraits shows its inn
portance as n national symbol
of freedom. It rather heightena
the significance of this ancient
symbol in the minds of good America re
when it is remembered that Emperor
Frederick Barbarossa humbled himself
before wearer of the liberty cap, :
and that Andrea Dandolo wore It on
the fourth crusade and at the conquest
of Constantinople. It occupied place
| in the forefront of the advancing hosts
that in the early part Of the fifteenth
century swept the Dalmation towns
and conquered the entire coast from

NORTH CAROLINA cHERokEEs,
Band of Indians whose Home is in the
Old North State.

A Band of Indians whose Home is In the
Old North State.
One of the most interesting places in
North Carolina, and yet one of the least
known, even by the people of the old
North State, is The reservation of
what is termed the Eastern band" of
the Cherokee nation. The history of
the reservation is strange one. When
the Indians in North Carolina were re-
moved by the government to the In
dian territory, by far the greater part
Of the Chcrokees left their old home
forever. But strong band retained
Land in three of the western counties,
| IN what was then almost wilderness.
A great tract of land was set apart as
a reservation by the state, and vol
! luminous laws governing these Chero-
kee lands were enacted.
For three score years or more these
"Cherokee land laws" formed large
part of the various codes, etc, and only
recently have been dropped from the
pages of such publications. They form
curious reading in their effort to mix
American law with Indian ideas, Gus
| toms, and rules as to land tenure. Orig
| inally the tract of land held by the
Cherokees was far larger than at pres
emit. It now comprises seventy-three
thousand acres and some Of it is this

ANIMAL REASONING.

in Person and In Feelings.
Many years ago padre dwelt in
Simta, and the padres vito used to
feed the monkeys that haunted. the
place every mor-ing, One day the pa
triarch of the lot whiled away his
time waiting for his breakfast by
throwing the contents OF the padres
dressing table through the open win
dow down the khud. The padre was q
merciful man, so he only loaded the
shotgun with the small scarlet berries
which the natives use for bead work
and gave the fleeing Hanuman the con-
tents of one barrel as he was leaping
from tree to tree through the Jungle.
During breakfast not vistage OF a
monkey was to be seen, and after
ward the padre went out and
his wife took mp her accus-
toned seat in the veranda. Pres
entity she became aware of the noise
less arrival of deputation. Two full.
grown monkeys were supporting their
wounded patriarch up the vcranda
steps. Slowly the sad little group ap
preached the lady and the two helpers
placed the wounded monkey in front Of
her and then withdrew little.
With q look of saddcst reproach th<
| old monkey placed his hands on his
wounds and, then held ont the palm
stained with blood, for the lady's in
spection, accompanying the action with
| . most melancholy little moan. Thu
