Real Human Magnets.

\ remarkable story comes from the
upper Yakima. Two years ago Peter
Stromstadt located on a piece of land
near what is now known as Borax
Springs, his family consisted of his
wife and two children. A few days
after his settlement M. Stromstadt
discovered a spring close to the shack
he had erected the water of which
was strongly impregnated with iron,
but not unpalatable. Mrs Stromstadt
dug out and deepened the spring, and
since July 1893, the family has used
the water for all domestic purposes,
On the night of April2 heavy cleo
trical storm passed over the Cascades
accompanied by vivid displays of
lightning. The following morning
Mrs. Stromstadt, while kindling the
fire In the stove, found it almost i'm
possible to separate the stove litter
from her hand. Her husband, hear
ing her scream, ran to her assistance,
when to her surprise, he found that he
too experienced great difficulty in de-
taching any article of iron with which
his hands came in contact. Break
fast was finally prepared and the fam
lily sat down to the meal. The chill.
dren, two girls of and years, drank
their milk from tin cups, and on rails
ing the cups to their lips, found
themselves unable to detach the cups
from their mouths. Mr.; Stromstadt,
who is an intelligent immigrant from
Swe den, was nonplussed, and, while
unable to account for the wonderful
occurrences. still laughed at his wife's
excited declarations that the family
was bewitched. Mr.. Stromstadt has
written friend in town. He SAYS
that the small bed on which the chill
dren sleep IS upon roller casters, and
that i'll the morning the bed is invari-
ably pointing north and south. the
bed being little to the east of
north.

Academy of Sciences, to whom the
circumstan ces were related, states that
the Stromstadt family has become
saturatedwith iron, which was render
ed magnetic by the passage of cleo
tricity from the clouds to the earth
during the storm on the night of April

Burial Service Over Mass OF Steel
One of the strangest collins ever told
of is that for which the British war de-
partment is said to be responsible. The
story is that workman engaged in
casting metal for the manufacture Of
ordnance in the Woolwich arsenal lost
his balance and fell into caldron con-
tanning twelve tons of molten steel
The metal was ut white heat and the
man was utterly consumed in less time
than it takes to tell it. The war de-

and decided not to profane the dead by
using the metal in the manufacture Of
ordnance. and the mass of metal was
actually buried and Church of Eng

QUAY'S BATTLE IS ON.
There Appears a Good Pros
peCt for Two Conventions
Being Held.
HASTINGS MEN ARE BEATEN.
Never In the History of Pennsyl-
vania Politics Has There Been
Such a Struggle.

HARRISBURG, Pa. Aug. q. - Har-
risburg is in turmoil tonight, the like OF
which was never known in this State.
There have been many turbulent political
conventions in the capital of the keystone
State, but the crowds which have been
assembling since Sunday, as a preliminary
to the Republican State convention to-
morrow, far exceed in number and in
boisterousness any gathering that has ever
been here.
The streets are filled with marching
clubs and brass bands and buildings of all
kinds are profusely decorated. On the eve
of day which it was supposed would de-
eide the eventful battle for the control OF
the Republican party organization in
Pennsylvania between Senator Quay on
the one hand and Governor Hastings and
State Chairman Gilkeson on the other, the
factions are farther apart than ever and
the opinion is general here tonight that
two conventions tomorrow will be the
outcome.
Chairman Gilkeson, who refuses to act
with the majority of the 121 members OF
the State committee in the preparation OF
q IOll Vi QclcE dtcos ehO hAoJoiltv UclHS
Quay adherents, to-day secured possession
of the opera house from a theatrical COM
pany that was billed to appear there to-
night and late this afternoon placed sixty
or more able bodied men in the building
to hold it against the enemy. These
guardians will 'shold the fort" all night,
and should the Quay forces attempt to
secure an entrance during the night there
will surely be trouble.
One of the incidents of the day was the
report that Delegate Quigley of Delaware
County, who with the other delegates from
that county was instructed for Quay, called
on Governor Hastings this afternoon and
announced that it was all right 1t is
rumored that the Hastings faction induced
Mr.. Quigley to change his support from
Quay to Gilkes son.
The State Committee, of which ex-State
Chairman Thomas v. Cooper of Delaware
County was yesterday chosen temporary
chairman, met at the Lochiel Hotel at II
o'clock this morning in the quarters orig

Fate of Marshall, the Slayer of Hts
Brother-in-LdtC.
SUISUN, CAL, Aug. 27.-Marshall, the
slayer of his brother-in-law, Agee, who
was yesterday convicted of manslaughter,
was sentenced this morning by Judge Jones
to serve ten years in San Quentin prison.
The Judge told the prisoner that as all
possible Ieniency had been shown by the
Jury he would sentence him to serve the
extreme penalty.
The verdict of the jury has been received
with indignation by the people in this
vicinity, and also in the vicinity of the late
home of the man who was killed. The
actions of one of the jurors between the
adjournment of court Friday evening and
the opening Saturday morning were re-
garded with suspicion. James Smith of
Fairfield held out for acquittal, and finally
caused the others to agree to verdict of
manSlaughter.

Bayard of Chicago followed with a spring
ing step, full of energy and as fresh at the
end of the route as at the beginning.
California Commandery No. /, at the
head of the eleventh division, mounted
and wearing a regalia almost barbaric in
its munifcence of velvet, rode through a
constant roar of applause and cheers.
Every man among them was physically a
giant, and Commander Hurlburt was evi-

accorded him and his commandery by
the people of Boston. Oakland Com
mandery of California followed directly in
their wake, but on foot. These, too, were

and elegantly dressed. Their welcome
was scarcely less than that of their

and Missouri followed, and all drew forth
applause as they marched, especially the
Knights from st. Louis. who were accom-
panied by regular army band from the
Jefferson barracks.

press speaks in very plain terms of State
Agent Thompson, and are demanding his
dismissal. 1t appears that he is receiving
very liberal allowance from the National
society and from the State fund for chari-
ties, which sum is to defray the expenses
of his Office and pay salaries of assistants,
but the showing is only favorable to
Thompson's personal account. In the
bull-fght episode he made the public be-
lieve that there was to be fight, and thus
advertised what was considered in ad-
vance fake, and then he lacked courage
to act at the proper time.

vICTIMIZED THE RAILROAD.
One OF It's Trusted Employees
Thought to Have Made Away
With the Loot.

STOCKTON, CAL, Aug. 27.-The $4,000
stolen from the overland express near Sac
ramento, on the Yolo side of the river, on
the night of October II. 1894, has been Sc
cured. The company, however, has not
the money and is as much loser as when
Browning and Brady looted the express
car on that night
For weeks past, ever since Brady made
his confession, in which he told where the
gold had been secured, the spot near where
he said the money was hidden has been
patrolled by guards in the employ of the
railroad and express companies. Within
the past three days some one stumbled
upon the treasure and was not slow in
making away with it. The sacks in which
the gold had been buried were found
where on Monday they had been replaced
by the lucky man or men. The marks of
the gold pieces were still distinct where
the yellow double-eagles had pressed
against the sides of the sacks. It is be-
lieved that the gold was abstracted less
than forty-eight hours before the empty
sacks were found.
The finding of the sacks confirms the
story told by Brady when he confessed his
crimes, and gave the officers an account of
low DTOWHluS TOpUcu IHe Train anu now
both had buried the gold. Detective Gard
of the Southern Pacific Company had a
theory to the effect that the treasure had
been removed by Browning without
Brady's knowledge, but the finding of the
sacks disproves this.
One of the men who has been engaged in
the chase after the robbers and in search
ing for the stolen money said to-day that
it was not surprising that Brady failed to
locate his ''plant" of stolen treasure. as
the willows grow thickly along the banks
of the river, where the money was hidden.
the growth in many instances being as
much as foot a month.
The only thing that kept Brady in the
country after the killing of Sheriff Bogard
was the fact that he wanted to discover the
spot where Browning and he had planted
the coin stolen on the night of October Ii
of last year.
There is coming sensation with the
finding of the money. 1t is said that the
m an who found and made away with it is
none other than trusted employe of one
of the companies interested in finding it.
The officers are very reticent about the
matter, as they will have hard work to
convict the suspect. The detectives are
still busy on the case.
