Restored Speech aud Hearing.

The Sunbury Daily, in q recent
issue, relates wonderful case of the
restoration of speech snd hearing as
follows:
S. r. Conrad of East Sunburv, has
regained his senss of speech and
hearing. The restoration took place
Wednesday night. Many friends of
Mr.. Conrad were very much surpris-
eel Thursday when he talked to them.
On the ninth of November, 1894,
Mr.. Conrad was stricken with paral
ysis His entire left side was affect
cd. His condition Was very serious
and for eevsrsl weeks he lowered bs-
tween life and death. He slowly re-
covered and gradually regained the
use of his loft side. He was unable
to talk or hear.
About ten days ago Mr. Conrad
was able to hear the whistling of 10.
comotivs. His sense of hearing be.
came stronger daily. The sense OF
speech was restored to him while at
his home at East SUDBURY.
DR.. Stoner says that the effusion
of the brain has all been absorbed
and the depression on tho convolu
ton of hearing and speech has been
relieved. This is the cause Of the
restoration. Medical men are very
much interested in the case and DR..
Stoaer is receiving many congratuls-
tions On the recovery of his patient.

MexzofnntYs Memory.

Cardinal MeZzofanti had q memory
little short OF miraculous. DR.. Russell,
his hiographer, says that the cardinal
spoke with the greatest ease 30 Ian
guages; that he spoke fairly we'll Q:
that he used occasionally, but not
with any fiuency, II more; that he
spoke impcrfectly s, and that he
could read IL more. Taking, in addi-
tion, the number of dialects he used,
some SO diverse from the mother tongue
as to constitute a different language.
DIR. Russell says that the cardinal was
master of no less than IL 1 different Ian
guages and dialects. His German was
SO excellent that he was taken for n ma
tive of Germany. while his French and
English were equally pure. DIR. Tholuck
heard him converse i'll German, Arabic,
Spanish, Flemish, English, Latin,
Greek. Swedish and Portuguese at one
of the pope's receptions, and afterward
Mezzofanti gave him an original poem
in Persian and left him to take lesson
in Cornish. He knew several of the
American Indian languages and nearly
all the dialects of India.

his Lat was found in the creek, and
scores of people from Lykens and
Wiconisco went to work in search OF
his body. The stream was dragged
on Sunday and Monday when the
body was finally found. He was a

dangerous errors into which courts
may fall. While it if not necessary
to deny tie exercise of q certain oc.
cult influence by some persons over
others. it does not follow that any
person can be rendered irresponsible
in law or morals by the alleged sug-
gestions of any other person.
To admit such plea in bar Of
judgment after crime is proved is to
return to the insane policy of the
courts of old and OF New England
during the withcraft period. Crude
as were the times then, the hanging
and burning of persons as witches
was disgrace to the average com.
mon sense of mankind. and inflicted
an indelible stain upon the theology
and jurisprudence of the age. No
man of sense then witnessed, and NO
man of decent intelligence now con-
templates, tho course Of the church
and civil authorities of that period
without speechless shame and utter
contempt. It was the slaughter of
tho innocent IN about every Case. IL
was q brewing Of the hands OF JUS
tice in Judicial murder. Whatever
hypnotism may be, at least the
doers of crime must be held respon-
sible as principals or accessories, and
the acquittal Of Mcdonald was .
crime now approved by the Supreme
Court. OF course the alleged hyp-
notizer will not be executed. The
highest court in the land must halt
such perversiops Of justice and re-
buke the dense ignorance that gave
such verdict To permit such an
injustice would be to inaugurate
such a reign of terror as existed in
Franco q hundred years ago. 1t
would put every good citizen at the
mercy of the criminal classes. North

TOO MANY WIVES.

Louisville, Ky, April 11.--Freder-
ick Weimer, n wsil-to-do farmer from
Wodford county, near Versailles,
came to this city few days ago to
attend a sale of seventeen hogheads
of tobacco he bad shipped here
When he arrived Lere he had about
him 800 in cask, and Monday sold
his tobacco, which ne,ted Him about
the same amount. Then he went to
a saloon on Fifth street and began
drinking freely. While in a jelly
mood he said he was afraid TO 60 to
bed with so much money about him
aud remained at the saloon all night.
He told those in the saloon sbout
losing his wife lately, and said he
was very lonesome, saying he would
give $50 for wife.
Two backmen, William Hepler
and Martin Crane, have lately been
disputing the affections of one Effia
Cannon. domestic employed 10y n
family at Third and Bror d~ay
They agreed to waive all claim and
give her to Weimer for the $50. The
girl upon being seen consented to
the marriage, and they were taken
to Jeffersonviiis and married, Wei
mer giving each of the hsckmen S25.
Weimer and his bride missed the
train for Yer .siiles that night and
employed the two hackmen to take
them TO their destination.
This morning Wsimer's body Wa
found near Versailles Foul play is
suspected. The authorities are
working on the case.
A special to the Times from Yer
saiiles. says:
"TLs Corcner's jury returned q
verdict of s1icide. The testimony
at the inquest seems to show that
his suicide was superinducsd by a
plethora Of infelicitious matrimonial
experiences. He had wife AID
three grown daughters living at
Ripley, Ohio: another wife in Brack-
en- county; the Louisville girl to
whom he was married on Tuesday,
and paramour named Kate Oots, a
young white woman with whom he
had been living for year. Oots
testified that wife No. 2 cama to
Versailles six weeka ago. There was
trouble at that time between wife
No. 3, Farmer Weimer, his para
mour, and his children, and Weimer
had been cespondens over since, and
threatened to kill himself several
days ago. he WAS total abstainer
prior to his Louisville trip.

SENATOR dORGAN,s ADVICE

Washington, April 1l-Senatol
Morgan, chairman of the Senate For.
eign Relations Committee, was ask
ed to day how he regarded the sit.
uation in Venezuela, and replied by
saying: Il have no doubts that
Great Britains 9 ultimste purpose is
to press her frontier sufficiently far
into the interior to encompass the
rich gold fields Of that section,
tLoush b she will of course not dis
close this purpose in the immediate
future, but will rather confine her
demands to the territory at the
mouth Of the Orinoco river.
"Do 1 think the United States
should permit this aggression" he
asked repeating a question. II do
not. I think the direct question
should be put to Great Britain by
our diplomats, as to whether she
proposes either by purchase or con-
quest to extend her domain beyond
her present claims. In case of a
negative reply, I should advise that
tAo CAItcu kOLoio6 hoG AhtCl
fere with the settlement of existing
disputes, but I do not believe that
England could be brought to this
definite promise not to press her
boundaries further in that section,
because of the rich gold mines known
to exist there I am convinced, as I
believe most men must be who have
given attention to the question, that
England's desire is to control those
gold deposits.
Furthermore, it is evidently the
policy Of the present British admins.
tration to acquire desirable territol y
when it can do 60, as witness the ct
feet to secure Necker island in the
Hawaiian group, and her dispute
with France over African territory
1t is most probable that instead of
any definite reply to this
suppositious question, England
would evade it. In that event I
think we should invoke the Monroe
doctrine forthwith

Kane, well known young farmer
of East Donegal township, was driv-

evening, when his horse became

conviction, IN the courts Of that
State. The defence Of person in
dicted for murder, and who was
guilty of killing neighbor, was that
he was hyppotized by one Anderson
Gray, aud that hc was neither legal
ly nor morally responsible for the
act. The jury acquitted him, Gray
was arrested, tried and convicted

A Girl Collecting Experiences

Some Kansas girls are business
like. One Of them with four mar
ried sisters, received proposal Of
marriage last week and asked a
week to think it over. She went to
see all her married sisters. One
who used to be a belle had three
children, did all her own work, and
had not been to the theatre or out
riding since she was married.
Another, whose husband was a
promising young man at the time
she married, was supporting him.
A third didn't dare say her life was
her own when her husband was
around, and the fourth was divorced.
After visiting them and hearing
their woes, the heroine of this nara
tive went home, got pen, ink and
paper aud wrote an answer to the
young man. 1t would only be natur.
al to suppose that it. was a refusal,
but it wasn't. She accepted the
young man, and said she would be
ready for the ceremony within a
month.
