For fifty years this one task demanded all her patience and all her wisdom; of strength she had very little, but that was freely ex- pended. No journey was too long. no privations uncomfortable, no obstacles unsurmountable She went through all the United States, and through the European capitals, everywhere bringing about a more merciful and enlight- ened treatment of the insane poor. But the story of her wonderful work in this and other lines requires a volume to itself and such 1t has. fortunately. It is one that every woman should read: the record of an utterly unselhsh, con- secrated life. a life of toll, yet of suc- cess. of weariness and homelessness, and feebleness. yet of happiness and of triumph.

during the remainder of their lives as man and wife Bradley bought a tract of land near Bentonville. and was worth $25,000 when he came to this county. He was married twice In Kentucky. and has one son living by his second wife. He is connected with the Bradleys who are now prominent In politics in the Blue Grass regions. He owned several slaves. and his pur- pose in coming to Ohio was to liberate them and get them out of the juris- diction of slave state. Bradley's property in Kentucy was sold at a sacrifice. and he died in 1881 at the age of S7 years. He was very hard drinker and for several years prior to his death was totally blind. He had five children by the woman he adopted as his wife. three of whom are now living. Aunt Lucinda, as she was generally called. was woman of remarkabl intelligence, and during her life was never so i'll that her condition necessitated the calling of a physician, and seemed apparently we'll up to the time of her death, which resulted from heart disease.

Just as it turned the corner a man in a light open buggy tried to drive across the track. The grip car struck the buggy squarely, knocked the man out, and he fell sense1ess on the pavement.

------------------- TEE ONE THING NEEDED.

New Haven is blessed place to be In. It has Yale college. Center church, the old Green. the Historical Society, the Chamber of Commerce. societies of the Sons and Daughters of the Revolu- tion. a few Colonial Warriors. few Colonial Danes. Society composed of from one to three persons. and a hun dred thousand or more industrious. un- aristocratic and fairly human beings. But there is always a fly in the oint- ment. New Haven needs something more. If she Is going to be just what she ought to be. There is no volcano here. To be sure. political orators will soon be sending forth fire and smoke from their interiors. but they will not be real volcanoes. even while they are most violently eruptive. What we want Is real volcano, and 1t gives us pleasure to announce that we can get one cheap now. It appears that there is a grand clearing out sale of volcanoes going on in Iceland, and that bargains in that line can be had. For instance, in Copenhagen paper two volcanoes are offered for sale at the remarkably low price of $75O each. This opportunity should not be neglected. It will not occur again, and 1t will soon be lost unless 1t Is snatched, Let us buy a volcano and set 1t LID either on East Rock, or on the Green, If 1t were decided to place 1t on the Green it could be made a very inter- esting feature of life in New Haven. For instance. on the Fourth of July it could be turned on full blast and would add much to the variety, the pic turesqueness and the danger of that glorious day. It could also be used to add impressiveness to the return Of a
 victorious Yale crew or victorious ale ball nine. It could be introduced into politics with telling effect. For in- stance. when a candidate for governor should visit us he could be mounted on platform on the Green, the band could play See. the Conquering Hero Comes, the people could 7"holler" and the volcano could be let loose, Such a reception would give candidate the idea that he amounted to something and that the people were glad to see him and hear him try to talk on the issues of the hour.
 We must have volcano. Let's tenn porarily abandon the great work of making West river more navigable for clams and turn our attention to Ice lands volcano bargain counter.

near the depot. There was never any thing Impossible" to him. He was ready 10 undertake the hitherto unat- tainable at any time. and with as much seeming confidence in ultimate success as if solving some simple problem in everyday mechanics. A letter recently written by him to the London Times tells about his recent attempt to &C., eompllsh the navigation of the air. and as some portions of 1t have a general as we'll as personal interest. we repro duee them here for the perusai of our readers:
 In the first place. he says that he is not trying 10 make . fiying-machine for either freight or passengers, but simply for war purposes. He then con tinues: T am quite free to admit that the navigation of the air Is beset with a great many dangers; 1t Is also very dangerous to make high explosives or Are large guns. but 1t Is infinitely more dangerous to be within the range of the enemy's guns. What propose to do h to enable one to assail an enemy from & distance greater than the enemy will be able to strike back with the most powerful gun in existence. So l think 1t would be quite as safe for combat ants to employ means of assault as to employ the present means. which necessitates their approaching nearer to the enemy and having to receive its fire. l do not know that any one has ever invented system of warfare which Is perfectly safe. It Is known now to be possible to make machine that will actually fly at very high velocity; so nothing remains to be done except to learn how to manoeuvre 1t. In view of the decided advantage which flying machine would give Its possessor over an enemy. l do not think that in case of war European nations would hesitate to employ them even if one-half of the men navigating them were killed. At the present time no difficulty Is ever found in getting volunteers to make a torpedo boat at tack upon man-oe-war. something which is infinitely more dangerous than navigating flying-machine would be. as the latter might be paint ed black and make Its attack at night or in fog. when 1t would be quite i'm possible for the enemy to strike back. War, at best, is dangerous game, and those entering upon 1t are playing with dangerous instruments, whether they are guns, dynamite, or flying ma chimes"

IS HYPNOTISM?

Some men who are frank with them selves call themselves fools and idiots when they discover that they have been taken in and done for by a plausible schemer. And frequently they put a word before the noun which is intense ly descriptive. But perhaps these frank men do themselves injustice. Countess Constance Wachtmeister, who is known as the greatest exponent of theosophy since Madame Blavatsky, has recently attracted some attention by boldly claiming that swindlers and robbers often practice hypnotism on their vic tins with marked success. She re- lated instances in which sums of money had been eXtored by the employment of this occult force, and she made out quite case.
 It is evident that something IS the matter with people who do what a wealthy old farmer did the other day. He is, or was, worth s1oo,ooQ A smooth man came along and wanted to buy some land. They took a ride together, and they met another smooth man. He said he had been robbed, and pro- ceeded to show how it was done. Three cards were produced and manipulated. The farmer and the two strangers had sociable time. The farmer became interested in the game. He knew he could pick out the right card and, sure enough, he could. Soon he found him. self the winner of $5,0O0. But here came the hitch. He must show that he would have been able to pay $5,0O0 if he had lost, as the stranger was not playing against "wind." Nothing could he more reasonable. The farmer went to bank and drew out $5,OOO, and re. turned to his two tovial companions Stranger No. 2 after examining the package of money and pronouncins it correct, placed it in satchel, together with the $5,0ee which he had lost, and handed the satchel to the farmer The latter drove home in great glee, while the two strangers went their respective ways. And when the farmer got to a place where he could open his satche] without being seen he found paper where the money ought to be.
