THE "ELEorMo GIRL" IN THE ORIENT.
Miss Annie May Abbott, the Georgia
girl whose prodigious feats of strength
created such sensation in this coun-
try few years ago, and gave her the
name of "The Electric Magnet" isnow
in China after having made tour of
Japan. In the latter country the
strongest Of the wrestlers were unable
to lift her little body from the floor,
or even push her over, while with the
tips of her fingers she neutralized their
most vigorous efforts to raise other
objects, which, under ordinary cir
cumstances, would have been the
merest tride. When she placed her
hand upon the arm of the champion
wrestler he was unable to lift an
ordinary cane from q table. The
Japanese scientists, however, repu-
dated the electrical theory which Miss
Abbott's manager usually suggests to
the newspapers. and attributed her
remarkable feat to hypnotic powers,
claiming that it was the force Of her
will instead of the strength of her
muscles that interfered with the action
of those who are engaged in the ex-
periments. In China she is creating
an even greater sensation, and the
native scholars accuse her oil receiving
aid from superhuman agencies. Such
feeling has been excited among the
literal that it is feared it may have an
unfortunate effect in stimulating anti
foreign and anti-missionary preiudices.
Chou Han, au educated Chinaman,
writes to Shanghai paper asking:
''Do not such exhibitions, as viewed
by Chinese, fully corroborate what
the natives have alleged against mis-
sionaries possessing uncanny powers,
and therefore confirm them in the be-
lief of the ability of foreign men and
women to stupefy children and bring
them under their influence for good
or eyilp The Chinese will certainly
conclude that If foreigners practice
this mystic power to make money they
will do so for the far higher object of
gaining converts and saving souls.
Natives who have witnessed Miss
Abbotts powers will never be per-
suaded to believe that among mission
aries there are not both men and wo-
men who possess the same power oil
rendering others subject to their will. u

TO INSURE A GOOD COMPLEXION.

A first and imperative condition for
good complexion and skin of fine
texture is that all the excretory organs
be kept in an active, healthful state.
Many people do not drink sufficient
water to encourage the kidneys to per-
form their duty, and are painfully
ignorant of the dangers which lurk in
habit of constipation. With these
organs in torpid state undue labor
is forced upon the skin, the pores OF

onerous work and clogged in their

ducts of the body, and hence arise un-
slightly blotches and pimples.

POLITICAL SITUATION AT boise
POpuIists Ccnsurcd for Their Self
fSh Action.

Boise, Idaho Sept. 1.-THE chief topic
of political discussion has been the dem
cratic-populist county fusion of yester-
day here Today the great majority Of
democrats are outspoken in denunciatton
because the silver republicans were ig-
nored. The democratic delegates were
elected six weeks ago, only with reference
to preferences for candidates for local
offices. For this reason they were con
trolled by local politicians, and did not
represent the political sentiment of the
democratic party.
The democratic masses recognize the
justice of the demand of the democratic
national convention to recognize and thus
help Bryan and free coinage in those
states which can be carried only by the
vote of the free silver republicans. Sew
eral delegates to the populist convention
refused to attend the joint convention to
ratify the nominations, showing a de-
CidCd opposition among the populists 10
nominate for a democratic convention,
Secretary Walsh, of the national dem
oCratC committee, remained here unu
this morning, laboring with the executive
committees for recognition of the silver
republicans. The silver republicans Off
cred every concession in the interest Of
Bryan and free coinage. The democratic
committee seemed willing to make the
needed concessions, but the pOpulists
would not yield. Mr.. Walsh went west
this morning, and will return to the east
Tuesday, when he is hopeful Of accomp-
fishing his object. No arrangement is
probable, however, because the populist
leaders care more for chance OF Sc
curing a United States senator than for
Bryan and free silver.
The silver republicans can not further
recognize the pOpuljsts, and a very ac-
tive campaign will be prosecuted by thS
silver republicans, 1t is also quite evil
dent that the unreasonable action OF the
pcpulists will be considered as Operat-
ing to release the democrats from the
state convention pledge to select soma
tor from the populist party.
| 1t Is reported tonight that the silver
| republican state convention will be con-
yened by the state committee before the
| state ticket is named, but the purpose
OF the same is not yet given out The
! Evening Mail, the state democratic or
gan, tonight admits that the political
situation In the state is serious from
/ party standpoint, because their national
committee is giving recognition to the
! silver republicans rather than to the
democrats. Senator Dubois is still In the
east. but Is expected home soon to enter
the campaign. In case the same Is rem
dered necessary to elect the free silver
republican state ticket.
