Mrs. Browning wore her hair in long
ringlets, which. falling very much over
her face, and when seen in profile suggest
ed the unpleasing idea Of blinkers that
harshly cut across the graceful curves Of
brow and cheek. It was this style OF ar
ranging the hair that made Mrs. Brown
ing look. not old fashioned-for that would
have given touch Of sentiment-but
strangely out Of fashion. Her slight, pref
~ figure was rather disguised than set of
by garments that fell looping about her.
hut. thank heaven, she was entirely free
from the bad taste Of the self styled clever
women who acknowledge themselves to be
failures as women by aping masculine
stvle Of dress and address.
In conversation Mrs. Browning seemed
reserved. with certain proud aloofness OF
manner: at the same time there was lis
teninc reticence in her attitude that did
not help the playful tossing TO and fro Of
talk. Occasionally she flung her remarks
into the midst Of the discussion, and such
remarks were weighed, measured and full
Of sense and purpose. Il was evident that
Mrs. Browning had not thrown of the
habit acquired in the years Of silence IN
her darkened chamber Of conversing in a
a one sided way with the best books, which
is vastly different from conversing with
the best men.-Chicago News

The latest hynotic yarn from the Char

cessors into the shade. DR.. Luys. it ap-
pears, has been making experiments in
relation to what he calls the exterior
zationr Of the human body, and it is as
serted that be succeeded in transferring
the sensibility Of a hypnotized woman
into a tumbler Of water. When the
water was touched the woman WINGED,
and when it was swallowed she went
into deadly swoon. How the drinker
felt with another persons sensibilities
in his vi.als is not stated.
DR.. Luys next undertook TO transfer
sensibility from the woman to her pho
tograph, and succeeded so admirably
that when he stuck pin into the picture
the woman screamed. Not only this. but
the mark Of a scratch appeared upon hel
hand in exactly the spot where the pin
had been applied to the photograph Il

A remarkable example of the loss Of
gold by reason Of abrasion came to the
notice Of the Chicago customs officials
the other day. George W. Sheldon &
Co. sent $l5, 600 in gold TO the collector
to pay duties The sum was in equal
amounts. made up Of s.. $40 and SEQ
pieces. The teller found that the coin
footed up all right taken at its face
value, and il was sent over TO the sub
treasury. Pretty soon word came back
to the collector that the $4,000 in gold
was 81 1886 short weight and the deficit
would have to be made up before a re-
ceipt would be issued. Examination
proved that the coin had been abraded
TO that extent-nearly i3per cent.-Bos-

PROF. PRICE EXPERIMENTING
A New Witness Found Who
Saw the Buggy.
TWO MEN DROVE RAPIDLY OFF
heath's Significant Reply to
Remark About McWhirter's
Struggle.

FRESNO, March 16.-Thomas Seaward
was recalled to the stand this morning al
the resumption of the Heath trial. He
was s-eXamined at consid erab bile length
concerning his testimony given yesterday.
He stated that he had told Sheriff Hensiey
of what he had seen on the morning of
the McWhirter murder. Stewards testi-
mony before the Grand Jury was then
read by Attorney Foote and the witness
closely questioned concerning some differ
ences between this testimony and that
just given.
Il. Is. Parker. who was a saloon-keeper
here at the time Of the tragedy. said that
on March g. 1893. The witness met Heath
on train near San Jose, and Heath asked
him the question rather suddenly: "Wbo
killed MeWhirter?" The witness an
swered that he did not know, and asked
Heath if he did. Heath said he did not.
Professor Thomas Price was recalled at
the afternoon session. and stated that he
had made experiments with pistol shots
since he was on the stand last.
In COMPANY with Mr.. Thompson and
Detective McFarlane," said he, ~ secured
piece OF beef II by IA inches square and
! "a or inches thick and went t. the Bel
mont shootiDg-grounds. We put the beef
in FELLOWSHIP and shot into it with a
Colts pistol. 41-caliber. barrel Az inches
long, with short cartridges. Mr.. McFar-
lane did the shooting
SAT the first shot the pistol was held
against the cloth, and resulted in the
cloth being set on fire. and would have
burned up if Mr.. Thompson and had not
mt ha al 4
torn by the bullet. At distance of three,
six, nine and twelve inches the cloth was
set on fire, and powder marks showed on
an area over six inches in diameter. The
powder marks showed when the pistol
was discharged as far as ten feet from the
eluth."
The testimony of c. NJ. Carter, who lived
on Clark street. in Hsssell's addition to
Fresno, at the time OF the murder, formed
an important link in the chain of evidence
against Heath. He is now witness.
He said he was awakened by shots on
the morning of the murder. and heard a
buggy coming up the street. going north
1t was a two-horse buggy, and there were
TWO men in it. By rising. from his bed he
could look out Of the window into the
street. There were two dark horses, one
lighter than the other. and top buggy,
with top back. The witness next de-
scribed the clothes of the men in the
buggy. One of the men was larger than
the other.
At the other trial, while several persons
testified to hearing the sound of a buggy
coming from the McWhirter residence, it
could not be traced in any definite direc-
ton. Carter's testimony throws some light
on this.
NJ. M. Parson said he knew McWhirter
and Heath. He had a conversation with
Heath on September 10. 1892. and Parsons
remarked. What a fight it must have
been ?" referring TO McWhirter' struggle
with his assassins. Heath answered /:
"Yes, he stood up like a man."
