HOEFFER'S STRANGE ACTIONS.
The Dark County. o., Candidate for the
Legislature Creates Scene in His
thurch--A Mysterious Powder.

Greenville, O., Oct. 27.--The Rev c. W.
Hoeffer. the Republican candidate for the
legislature, charged with Offering the
Democratic executive committee to vote
for a Democrat for senator if they would
give him $3.50 for election expenses, APP
peared in the pulpit TO preach to-day. The
church was crowded. Stenogra pliers were
there to take down the reverend gentle
mans words He was late coming, but
was cool. He gave out the hymn and,
after 1t had been sung, arose. trembling all
over. He said that last night Il boy
walked me up at midnight at my house
and brought me a powder. which | took.

am morally certain II was not. | hoped it
would give me strength, but 1t had the
opposite effect. 1t will be impossible for
me to say anything. This powder has de-
ranged my mind
With that he fell into a chair, his head
leaning over the back, his arms hanging
limp. Women screamed and excitement
and confusion followed, Some shouted to
bring him water. BY some means he was
partially revived. He said he did not know
the boy that brought the medicine TO
al cross-questions he ans wered: MY lips
are glued" He repeated this answer TO all
God would show the church what to do
Then the preacher was carried home
where admission is denied to all callers
though 1t Is reported Rev Hoeffer is re-

that the reverend gentleman was not al
home last night, but stayed at a neigh

a Chicago Magistrate Dons tho Balloon
Sleeves

From the Chicago News.
Justice Underwood this morning
brought a mysterious looking bundle in
TO the Armory court and hid himself
from view in "a side room for several
minutes. When he emerged he closely
resembled one of those large. SUPER
abundant moths which fit around gas
llght on summer evening.
ON each arm was a huge blue polka
dotted Wldely-eNpanded sleeve as big as
the jib boom Of the Defender, and con-
tanning as much air as the fire balloon
al the Siege of Vicksburg. With these
gigantic appendages on his arms his
honor fioated to his chair, everybody
getting out of his way to avoid any
chance of smashing the wondrous
sleeves.
Excuse me, your honor, but what are
thOse?" asked Lawyer Lucas.
'ThOse?' responded his honor. WHY,
those are sleeves. | read I'm yesterdays
papers that large sleeves We're To be the

honor called time ON the first case
which was that of a tramp, who had
been sleeping on the lake front.
The tramp took one look at his
honor's get-up and then asked If this
was the new woman or the bearded lady
The court fined him s25 and didn't smile
