The following letter from the Rev. Dr.
E. r. Ollie is self-explanatory:
SAN FRANCISCO, March 6.
To the Editor of the Catl-SIR: In an address at
Odd Fellows all last Sunday afternoon VEN
tured to exercise the right OF an American citi-
zen and TO characterize the acts OF some of our
public servants at Sacramento In the course
of my remarks / said "The Assembly Commit
tee on Public Morals & amended the bill so as
to change the age of consent from Is, as en-
bodied in the bill, to is years. The amendment
was voted down, but Mr.. Bettman, the chair
man of the committee (who, l am told, keeps
eorner.grocery saloon) voted for the amend
ment."
in the Assembly yesterday, seems to have de-
MED having SO voted. and therefore append
an extract from newspaper report of the pro-
ceedlngs in question:
SACRAMENTO Feb. 2S.-The Assembly this
morning considered the amendment recon-
mended by the Committee on Public Morals,
making the age of consent 16. The House
voted down the amendment, leaving the age
under the bill 1S. The amendment was lost by
the following vote: Ayes Beti-
was misinformed as to the business in which
Mr.. Bettman is engaged, and so far stand cor
rected With regard to the other quotations
from my address to which Mr.. Bettman took
exception under his question of privilege,
made no sweeping charges against either the
San Francisco delegation or the Legislature.
expressly said OF the former that, "with few
honorable exceptions, the delegation is one of
which San Francisco may well be heartily
ashamed" and that statement reiterate with
all the emphasis l can give. If Mr.. Devine,
whom did not mention, but who also rose to
question of privilege, chooses to assume that
he is not one of the honorable exceptions, he
has my permission. He ought to know.
With regard to him and some other of our
legislators, refer to their legislative record as
exploited in the public press, as evidence that
my pleasantly (abeut guards being needed to
hold down the Capitol steps is scarcely an ex-
travagant hyperbole.
Butt have uttered no reflection, expressed or
implied, upon the many good and true men
who worthily represent the State at Saera-
mento. Z. r. Ollie.

to the Citizen from St. Augustine says:
Miss Blanche Chapman has fallen heir to

The Chapmans came to this city from
Gainesville Ca, about ten years ago. Mr..
Chapman was brickmason by trade. but
obtained position in the grocery store of
S. f. Bennett, where he remained five
years. To a few intimate friends Mr..
Chapman confessed the secret that Miss
Blanche was not the daughter of himself
and wife, stating further that they never
had had child. He silenced curiosity by
saying he adopted daughter. Blanche
went to the public schools, but was always
considered a dull scholar. She is now 20
years of age. She always dressed fashion
ably, and, being pretty girl, attracted
much attention in her stylish gowns. Not
long ago Mrs. Chapman and Miss Blanche
left here to join Mr.. Chapman in Jackson
vile, where he had removed. While the
family lived here they made few acquaint-
ances, and no one has known anything of
the mystery or romance surrounding the
life of the supposed daughter.

DAYS OF WITCHCRAFT-REvIyED.

Arts of Her Husba8d

Plaint of a Young Wife as to the Black
Arts of Her Husband.
BRAZIL, Ind, March 6.--The days of
witchcraft are revived at Brazil Two
months ago man named Stapleton, aged
60, married Miss Johnson, aged 16 years
Two weeks ago the wife left her hus-
band, returning to her parents, since
which she is controlled by a mysterious
influence under which she has spasmodic
spells. They prey heavily upon her both
physically and mentally. She alleges that
her husband has bewitched her, and seeks
redress in the courts. The most peculiar
phase of the phenomenal case is that by
his black arts, as the wife alleges, the hus-
band has transformed her into horse and
repeatedly ridden her under the cover of
darkness to the point of exhaustion.
The young wife's brother threatened the
life of her husband, whose son has filed
complaint praying that he be compelled to
execute bond for surety of the peace.
The situation is becoming complicated and
sensational.
