UNCLE TOM GROWING WHITE.
A Georgia Negro Who Is sabie-Hued
Only In Spots.


DR.. Stelwagon lectured at his clinic
at the Jefferson college hospital in
Philadelphia, on the case of Thomas
Cleveland, negro, whose entire skin
has turned white save few small
patches on his face. Lately Cleve-
land, who is known as "Uncle Tom"
was exhibited at the clinic in behalf
of medical science by ID. Med. Lind
sey, who brought him from the South
and is making tour of the leading
medical colleges with him. Uncle
Tom states that he is about &C years
of age, and says that he was born in
the neigborhood of Washington d. c.,
either in Maryland or Virginia. At
an early age he and his mother and
brother were taken South and sold to
a planter in Hart county, Georgia.
Prior to the war he worked as plan
tation laborer, and since then has
been what is known as cropper, til
ling the soil on shares.
At the age of II his skin began to
turn white in patches. Now his en-
tire epidermis save few patches the
size of nickel on his cheek bones is
white. When these patches disap-
pear, which DR.. Stelwagon says will be
probably within year or six months,
Uncle Tom will be as white as any
man and have nothing to distinguish
him from Caucasian save his kinky
hair and the conformation of his head.
DR.. Stelwagon stated that cases of a
partial loss of pigment were not I'M
usual, but said that complete loss of
color like that of Uncle Tom was re-
markable and almost the only one on
record. This loss of pigment, the doc
tor said, was under the influence of
the nervous system. 1t was usually
associated with some nervous disease,
but in Uncle TOMS instance this did
not appear to be the case.

REMARKABLE WOMAN
Major ButterwOrth's Estimate OF
Miss Madeline Pollard.
He SAYS She Is an Actress Equal to
Sarah Bernhardt or Clara Morris
The Trial Denounced.

CINCINNATI, O., April T. Miss Pol
lard is an actress equal to Clara Morris
or Sarah Bernhardt," said Hon. Benjamin
Butterworth to-day. ''She can simulate any
passion or emotion, and it Is my opinion
that this is but the prelude to her going
on the stage. / cannot but think that that
was one of her reasons for bringing the
suit, and that 1t was brought in the po-
ntical and social capital for the theatrical
and dramatic effect it would have upon the
public mind. There was no excuse on earth
for bringing this suit. 1t is worse than
foul pestience-breeding contagion. Far
better it had been If yellow fever had been
spread broadcast over the land and had
entered every home in the country than
this mass of filth, whose pollution is felt
at every fire5ide. Had 1 been called into
the case three days sooner it would, not
prevented. And had l been a judge on the
bench 1 would never have let 1t come TO
trial.
There is no condoning Of Mr. Breckin-
ridge. / will not do it. He does not want
it. L believe he would discharge me from
the case if l did offer anything in extenua-
wrong, and especially has she done wrong
in bringing this suit. l do not think this
case will destroy Breckinridges usefulness.
He will stand for reelection. Miss Pollard
is the most remarkable witness ever saw,
or ever heard of, or ever read of. She has
her case thoroughly in hand; every detail
of it. 1 never saw anything like the tact
and art of this woman. If there is a time
when she has not a ready answer she viii
make a plea for sympathy to gain time,
and all the time her mind is active to coin
some nice phrase apt one in which to
reply. You remember when she pleaded
that / was hard on her. That was TO gain
time to think in critical moment. She
has nothing to gain If she wins her suit,

gone anywhere or done anything, and
word from her would have been law with
Breckenridge. She could have had what she
wanted. If Breckenridge loses he will move
for new trial; failing in that he will ap-
peal"

lie CARON STILL ALIVE
Report of His Death Intended to
Deceive FenianS.
He Is Said to Be on His Way to an En-
glish Colony Under Protection
of Detectives.

LONDON, April THE Admiralty and
Horse Guards Gazette says that a report
is current that Major LIE Caron, the British
government spy, who was so prominently
connected with the prosecution of the late
Charles Stewart Parnell, and who was an
nounced to have been recently in this city,
is not dead. The Gazette adds that rumor
has it that lie Caron is now en- route to
one of the most distant colonies under
government officers protection. 1t is add
ed that this disappearance of the British
spy is due to the fact that the detectives
who have been guarding lie Caron ever
since he was brought so strongly into pub
lie notice, discovered some time ago that
a Fenian plot having its ramifcations in
New York and other American cities eX
listed with the object of killing him. When
informed of the danger to which he had
been exposed, LIE Caron is said to have
petitioned the British government to en-
able him to leave Englalad for some distant
portion of the Queens domain where he
would be safer from the vengeance Of the
Fenians Prominent Irishmen who were
questioned upon the subject of Major lie
Carons alleged disappearance said that
they would not be astonished if the report
circulated by the Admiralty and Horse
Guards Gazette was true. but they all claim
to know absolutely nothing about the al
legged Fenian conspiracy to kill the British
SDy.
