The Georgia Magnetic Woman.

Several distinguished members Of the
medical profession of New York city,
including Dr. Thomas II. Bailey, DIR.
Lewis A. Sayre and DIR. Reginald Sayre.
made a critical examination recently of
Mrs. Annie Abbott, Georgia woman.
Mrs. Abbott possesses the faculty
of increasing her ayoirdupois with
out the addition of material
weight, and to such an extent that an
ordinarily strong man can not lift her
from her feet She becomes an inert,
dead weight and can not be moved an
inch unless the experimenter permits
his hands to come in contact with each
other. This, Mr.. Abbott says, breaks
the electrical current which guides her
feet TO terra firma and she can be
lifted easily. There is another
condition, and a still more re-
markable one, which the ply
sicians will investigate with interest.
An ordinary tumbler is placed against
Mrs. Abbott's head and the investiga-
tor places his own ear at the open end
of the glass, when he hears a noise
which sounds like the singing of q sea
shell, accompanied by explosions.
Mrs. Abbott says these noises come
from the inside of her head and give
her the most exquisite pain. She is
unable to account,for the phenomenon.
On Account of His LandIady.
The death by suicide of benjamin J.
Smith, an engineer on the Southern
railway, at Atlanta, Ga, was given
curious turn in the coroner's inquest.
1t seems that Engineer Smith asked
his landlady, Mrs. Ida Davis, to accom-.
pany him to the circus. AS she had
another engagement, she could not do
so. He told her that he would sleep in
better world than this before morn
ing. He was found unconscious in his
room that night, two empty laudanum
vials by his side. He died an hour later

THE criminal docket was dis
posed Of yesterday, ten days onl!
having been consumed in it's clear
ance. There were more than 600
cases, and the markably short
t;me in which they were handled
beats any record of which We have a
knowledge Heretofore four weeks
have been set apart for criminal
work, and the time has always
been entirely consumed and the
docket left unfinished. The expens,
saved to the governmelt is an
item am uniting to several thous-
and dollars, all due to the efforts
OF a Democratic judge and Co
workers. The ARdMoREITE reit-
crates is former statement that
Judge Stuart is the right man in

IT WILL NOT Do.

The McRea bill provides that
all the lands t, be thrown open to
settlement in the KickapOo reser-
vation shall be sold at auction to
the high. st, and we lre<ume the
best bidder. 1t is urged in justi
tication of such a bill that it is
necessary t. "avoid the scenes of
of crime, horror AMI sufferi' G
which attended the opening Of
the Oklahoma and Cherokee Strip
lands."
Never mind about the horrors
Nothing can be wore than a
scheme which will give to wealth
such an ADVANTAGE that hnmeset k
ers without it will be practically
denied the privilege Of h me
seeking in the reservation, Not
more than 100000 acres will be
open TO entry in the Kickapoo
country after the Indian allOtments
are made. 1t is evidently the
purpose of land or cattle ring to
corner this land by bidding it in
AT a price which will be small in
comparison with the value, but
too large for the average boomer
who hangs along the edges of the
western reservations to pay. 1t Is
as deliberate a scheme of monOp.
oily as has been evolved out of the
conditions governing the acquire
ment of public lands in late years.
1t is a form of vice beside which
s0onerism appears virtue.
It is really unfi rtunate fol Mr..
McRae that he should have be-
come identified, at this session of
congress, with so maDy measures
which, like this one f 'r an auction
block on the public lands, will not
stand the test of close inspection
