error by falsely charging the members of the
Legislature.
Like ours at bay the vile slanderers when
put to the proof hid behind 9 refusal to an
swer, and the senate under its lawful powers
committed them for contempt They took out
writ OF habess corpus before Judge Hug hes
in the Superior Court and were again COM
NIT TED to Jail Again they applied to the Su-
preme Court of the State for another writ and
again by the unanimous decision of that
learned court they are remanded to Jail. Now
like hounds, as they are, they skulk and hide
away from the Sheriff until writ is issued
by Judge Morrow of the United States District
Court and they are again remanded. Again
they appeal to the higher court SO that time
may pass and the Legislature adjourn, for
they have learned from their attorneys that
the Senate's power terminates with the ses-
sion. All the way through with cowardice,
fraud and falsehood this dastardly and lying
sheet has skulked and lied and slandered
Why, then, after acquitting me does it at
tack? Because A. M. Lawrence came to me
and wanted me to introduce in the Senate
resolution turning over the whole investlgG-
ton 10 the Examiner, and because l would not
do so and because / choose to push the inves-
CATION TO the end, and by so doing expose its
talsehood and libel to the public, ] am Sc
lected as the target for its venomous and ma
ncious attacks,
not in me nor in the Legislature, but In this
lying sheet, whose vile and corrupt reporter
and the vile and cursed A. M. Lawrence would
and did charge what they. and each OF them,
know to be false.
The wrong is not in furnishing these men
for contempt, for if they had any truth to
utter they could speak. Why should they sit
with closed mouths? Because the informa-
ton was confidential, they say. II confiden-
tial, why then publish it? Are published
communications confidential? What must be
the honor of man who will publish a lie TO
ruin aud injure and defame? What honor has
q man who will publish falsehood, charging
q man with crime aud then refusing 10 give
that man the source of his information?
The fact is that the Examiner has no infor-
nation. This Legislature was ma king an hon.
or attempt at bribery, and this vile and SEN
sational sheet-a curse to humanity, disgrace
TO our State and civilization, menace only to
decency and respecta bility--this purveyor of
falsehood and "a oral disease, finding that this
Legislature would adjourn with the grandest

Thrilling Experience of Hypnotic

Philadelphia, Nov. S.-A Weakened by the
awful sensation OF swiftly falling through
space, Daniel Wright, aged forty-One
wears, OF 21s Vine street, had the thrilling
experience at an early hour yesterday
morning oi finding that he had actually
jumped from he third-story window and
was dashinc TO what seemed To he certain

in his night 10 wn, and as tie white 10 ted fig
are spraHg from the window sill, fell Leavily
on the awning below, and then rebounde ed
off To the pavement, two men ran over,
thinking that they had seen an appa rition.
The injured man was taken 10 the Penn
sylvania Hospital, where IL was found To
the utmost establishment OF the physician,
that his chef injuries consisted Of three
fractured ribs OH the left side. His great
toe was broken and he was badly bruised
and battered up. That the man was hot
killed outright ~ considered mira culous.
For I,uu.iicr of years Wright Travelled
around the country as an hypnotic sub

he gave exhibitions in all the leaing
cities, from Boston 10 San Francisco. DR.

without exception the finest hypnotic
subject in the world. About three wears
ago Wright gave the business up, and re-
suIned biz trade of painting.
