MRS. TYLER's LONG SPREE.

1t Leads to an Insanity Examination.
She Remembers Her Poultry.
Mary Tyler, q middle.aged woman
upon whose face the marks OF excessive
familiarity with a whisky bottle were
plainly visible, was examined in Judge
Shaw's court yesterday upon charge Of
insanity. It was shown by witnesses
that for more than year past she has
been more or less under the influence of
liquor, and that she has become a nui-
eance in the neighborhood where she
resides, much to the modification Of her
family. Her actions have been queer
and che has developed mania for
abusing her neighbors, charging them
them with imaginary crimes. and acting
30 insanely that her arrest on the charge
followed.
Mrs. TYLER listened to the testimony
in stupefied sort OF way, and seemed
to be at the time slightly intoxicated.
She did not realize until the exsmina-
ton was over what it was all about, and
then raised row.
The physician had thought it best to
send her to the county hospital for
couple of weeks, where she could get no
liquor, and see what her condition would
be at the end of that time. When Mrs.
Tyler understood what order had been
made she fatty refused to go, saying
that she had business TO attend to that
she must look alter her poultry. Dep
uty Sheriff Kearny mad hard work to
get her to 60 with him, but persuaded
her to go to Jail ON the pretense of see
ing the judge again. She made dire
threats of vengeance before safely
lodged in the hospital.

EDITORS HERALD II have information
from Professor Falb. of June 3D., which
should be of interest to you. He places
the present terrible explosions and loss
of life in the European mines as being
caused by the present planetary inhu-
ences.
"My statistics for 1SS7-8S-S9 show 43
explosions occurred on 26 critical DAYS.
which differed altogether but three DAYS
with nine cases from the critical day
predicted.
Zone original cause of the mine ex-
plosions is the attraction of the moon.
When the moon is at it's full it attracts
the power in the air to the higher
regions. Not only the air above the
eRrth's surface, but also that below, is
carried upward. Subterraneous gases
take the place of the air thus removed
from regions beneath the surface. There.
fore on the critical days the probability
of explosions underground ia greatly in
creased"
In the terrible explosion yesterday in
Wales this has been verified that many
