PICTURE IN THE GLASS.
Strange SpirituaIist Story from San
dusky.

Strange SpirituaIist Story from San
dusky.
An alleged manifestation from the
land of the spirits has been made III
Sandusky, o., which is inexplicable be-
cause of the relia bility of those who as
sert they witnessed it. Mrs. Elizabeth
Haines of Second street says she saw
the picture of her late husband IN the
mirror in the room he used to. occupy.
Councilman and Mrs. Henry Harris,
William Carter, Mrs. Thomas and a
number of others all testify to also see
ING the picture. When Mrs. Haines
brought photographer to make pct
ure from the glass it had disappeared.
Mrs. Haines is the widow of Henry
Haines, who died in Sandusky within
year past. During the late war he gained
considerable honor for an act of brav-
cry performed at the time of one OF
the many attempts to release the 500
Confederate prisoners who were con-
fined on Johnson's. island, about two
and one-half miles from Sandusky. lie
was the chief engineer of the Island
Queen, which piled between Sandusky
and the islands.
The steamer Philo Parsons, which
was then running between Detroit
and Sandusky was boarded at De-
troit by large number of Confederate
sympathizers who had planned to
capture the crew Of the Parsons, then
take the Island Queen, and later, I'M
der the guise of taking freight to
the United States steamer Michigan,
capture that gunboat and eventually
release the prisoners on the island.
The plan worked well enough no to the
capture of the Island Queen and
it was here that Haines demon
strated his bravery. That boat was
forcibly seized and, with a revolver at
his head, Haines was ordered to start
the boat. He refused and began a fight
which resulted in general melee, dur
ing which Haines was shot in the face.
None of the family has hitherto be-
loved in SniritualiSm.

A Large Gold Nugget.

There is great excitement near the
Reed gold mine in Cabarrus county,
North Carolina, due to the finding of a
24-pound gold nugget. The mine is
owned by o. S. and O. W. Kelly and j.
D. Lisle of Springfield, 0. Jake Shinn
picked up what he thought to be stone
Then he exclaimed: Boys. I've got it,
The nugget is the second in size ever
found in the United States. It is worth
$4,000. 1t was found three feet from the
surface of an old road, and came near
being. cast aside. Lisle has spent nearly
$4,000 in developing the property.
The mine has a noted history. During
the Revolution John Reed, a British sol
der, settled on Meadow Creek. Il He
picked out of that stream in 1903 81
pound nugget, and carried it home,
where it was used to hold the doors
open. Reeds wife induced him to carry
it to Fayetteville. A jeweler sent Mrs.
Reed calico dress and few pounds CT
coffee for it. 1t was the first gold found
in the United States. From the mine
260 pounds of gold in nuggets have been
gathered by surface miners.

New Rubber Product.

A new addition to the rubber industry,
which it is claimed will largely increase
the output of gutta-percha, is the collec-
tion and export of the dried leaves of the
gutta-percha tree. The extraction has
proved to be very profitable. giving an
the leaves yielding from to 10 per cent.
of their weight of the manufactured arti-
Gle. The natives formerly cut down a
tree to obtain the sap, and from this, if
percha. Fully as much can be obtained
from two pluckings of the leaves of the
same tree without injuring it, for it will
continue to put out fresh foliage, and
will live to seed and reproduce it's species.
This is important, as the best gutta-
percha trees do not bear fruit until 30
wears of age
