SCARED INTO INSANITY.
Sad Result of IL Practical Joke ON an
Iowa Man.

POMEROY, To-, July 4. - That his
friends might enjoy a few moments
amusement at his expense Ralph Rey-
holds, of Calhoun county, is passing
his life in the insane asylum at Cla-
rinda. The old foolish ghost scare was
the jest practiced on him. In the pres
ence of a number OF friends he ex-
pressed his disbelief one night in the
manifestations of spiritualism, and
was promptly challenged to visit
bridge near by on which it was said
the ghost of a farmer recently killed
there still walked. Reynolds started
off. and on his arrival was met by
Sheeted figure-one of his companions,
who had preceded him to the spot
by a short cut - and frightened into
Unconsciousness. Brain fever ensued,
and when he was able to leave his bed
his mind was found to be hopelessly
shattered. After year in the asylum
he was discharged as cured, but soon
showed symptoms of returning mental
arrangement, and was returned to
Clarinda. Nearly two years afterward
he was again discharged. He had been
out only short time when he CHANGED
to pass by the same bridge, and in
stantly went raving mad for a third
time. The Calhoun county lunacy
board has just ordered him returned
to the asylum.

FREAK OF A NEW YORK MAN.
For Seven Years He MasGuerades as
II Woman.

NEW YORK, July 4. - For seven
years the young men employed at 2GS
Wooster street made love to Bessie"
the pretty forewoman in Wallners hat
factory at that place. She had nlack
eyes, glossy, raven hair, good figure
she was worth fighting for-until
now, when they have found out she is
a man.
Nobody suspected her. She wore her
clothes just like a girl, talked like
one, set the young men by the ears,
teased them, let them buy oceans of
ice cream, which she ate-all Just like
a girl. Perhaps they would have gone
on believing Bessie" was a girl If she
hadn't suddenly eloped with pretty
Sophie Goldstein, real girl this time.
They left this city three weeks ago,
and are living in Chicago as Mr.. and
Mrs. Max Feingold Sophie is pretty
and twenty-five. She worked in Rich
ard Bros paper box factory, also at
2OS Wooster street. Bessie" was her
friend. About two months ago Sophie's
sister was amazed to see Bessie" in
mems clothes. She asked Sophie what
this meant and was told that Bessie"
was a man and that they had been
secretly married. Feingold. or i"Bes-
SIZE" after she or he had his or her hair
cut, never went near the factory. The
employees there never saw him, her or
them in the new dress and were aston
ished when Abraham Geiger, an eS-
employe. wrote from Chicago that "Bes-
sle' was there as a married man, and
that Sophie. his bride. was with him.
Nobody at the factory could give any
motive for Feingold's disguise.

CAMP LAKEVIEW, Mimi, July A.
Last evening very high wind did con-

NORSEMEN BANQUET.
They Present Mr.. Arctander Il Tes-
timOniaI.

At a banquet rendered the executive COM
mittee of the Ole Bull Monument associa-
ten, by the Norsemens Singing society last
evening, at dulles hotel the organization
which carried the brunt of the labors IN
erecting the Ole Bull statue was dissolved
The banquet was a most meritorious affair,
well arranged, and the programme arranged
carried out with the same precision that has
characterized the work of the committee.
About seventy-fve banqueters sat down to
the tables and partook of the food well spiced
with Norwegian favors. The first toast of the
evening was pronounced by Bernt Loftjald,
chairman of the committee on arrangements.
His toast was Norway He mentioned the
propriety of dissolving the committee, whose
work had been realized May IT, Norways
independence day, on the Independence day of
America July 4.
The principal address of the evening was
responded to by Carl Hanson, ex-president Of
the singing society. His toast was "Arctan-
DER whom he characterized as the parsonage
who had concocted the ideas whereby the
work OF the committee was carried out to
a successful issue. Mr. Hanson presented Mr..
Arctander with beautiful gold medal as
mark of appreciation Of the Norsemen's Sing
ing society. On one side of the medal is

STRIKE Is ON TODAY.
Much Depends Upon the Action of
Pennsylvania Miners.

PITTSBURG, Pa, July 4.-The coal
miners strike will be on tomorrow.
The success of the struggle for higher
wages in five states depends on the
miners in the Pittsburg district. If
they fail to refrain from working the
movement will be a failure. Fully 100
mines were represented at the miners
convention on Saturday by seventy
five delegates. This is a larger at
tendance than at any convention
since the great strike of 1894.
One of the significant points about
the convention Saturday, was the fact
that no representatives were present
from the mines where ironclad con-
tracts and signed agreements exist.
These mines include the first pool Of
f. L. Robbins & Co., Borland mine Of
the Panhandle Coal company
SnoWden and Gastonville mines of the
Pittsburg & Chicago coal company and
the Oak Hill, Plum Creek and Sandy
Creek mines of the New York and
Cleveland Gas company. These en-
ploy about 5000 men, and the indica
tons are that if the men at one of
these mines refuse to quit all the dig
gers at the others will act accordingly.
A strong effort is being made to get
the cooperation of the river miners in
the coming fight. If they work they cut
quite a figure in supplying coal, as the
plyed by water routes. Operators are
making no efforts to cOnciliate the
miners. Not an operator can be found
who will say that the miners are en-
titled to what they demand, SO cents
a ton. No effort will be made to OPP
crate the mines unless it should be
the river mines, hence no trouble is
anticipated. =
Great apprehension Is felt as to what
course the vast number of foreigners
will take in the strike. They do not
conform to the customs Of the Ameri-
can-speaking miners and the latter
have very little influence over them
One of the points made by the opera
Torso is that more mining companies
have gone into the hands Of the sher-
iff this year then during any year N
the history Of the trade
The officials of the United Mine
Workers, Of the Pittsburg district
held a meeting today and heard re-
ports from various parts of the dis
trict. Each of these indicated that
the men would quit work The ques
ton Of securing sustenance for the
vast army of idle men is the most Sc
rious one confronting the officials.
The organization has no money in
It's treasury. The miners have been
unable to save anything and only
those who have little garden patches
will be able to live Independently dur
ing the cessation Of work
The exodus from the fourth pool to
West Virginia has begun. The West
Virginia operators are hiring miners
as fast as they apply for work. Those
who wish immunity from trouble seek
safety by fight into West Virginia,
where the miners will work unmolest-

AID FOR INDIA.
Definite Steps Taken by the Mill City
ORGANIZATIONS.

At Plymout' church yesterday afternoon,
large number of people assented to the plan
for assisting the starving millions OF India
in a substantial fashion. 1t Rev. Earnest
Bell, a returned missionary from India, now
secretary of the Chicago Indian Relief asso-
oiation who pictured the present condition Of
India in its true colors and made every heart
throb with pity, bringing tears to eyes in re-
Spouse to the dews Of pity that gathered on
mis- own lashes.
Before the meeting was over everybody was
bubbling with heartfelt enthusiasm,
men and women alike. The meeting ad-
JOurned to the lecture room, where organiza-
ton was perfected, with A. l.. Cloker, vice
chairman, and Earnest c. Brown, of the
Nicollet National bank, treasurer: ", p
Kirkwood, temporary secretary. The other
members of the committee were Rev. d. n.
OILS, Rev. c. b. Mitchell. A. W. Stevens, Rev.
Carey L. Morgan, n. w. Price, Nathaniel Nc
Carthy. This committee will select its officers
at meeting to be held later Monday even
ing, July u, at o clock, at the board of
trade rooms, a meeting Will be held, at which
Will be present persons to represent not only
all religious bodies, but all the trades. pro-
teSSlonS and societies as we'll 1t is the in
tenton of the central committee to reach
many such bodies as possible in the mean
time, in order that they may have repre-
Sentatives present, but if they do not reach
all, they ask that the societies meet of their
own accord and select delegate who may
be able to act in forming a branch commit
tee for the purpose Of canvaSSing his partic-
ular society or profession. In this way it is
thought that very large sum can be realized
in Minneapolis for the aid Of the sufferers.

Senator Nicely Caught.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, July 4.-Senator yelling
ton, of Maryland; is in a peck of trouble
One of his constituents is B. H. Warner, a
prominent business man of this city, who
has country home in Maryland. Mr.. War
ner secured from Senator Wellington several
strong letters recommending Mr.. Warmers
son to consulate. To Senator Welingtons
surprise the president appointed young War
ner to be consul at Lepsic. The senator had
no idea that the young man would be ap-
pointed without a personal appeal from him.
and now he is fighting the confirmation In the
senate. There are longtime bona fide resi-
dents of Maryland whom Wellington wants
appointed, and he is now trying to prevent
the confirmation Of a man whom he recon-
mended in writing. He did not realize that
Mr.. Warner merely wanted his formal in
dorsement, and that he brought other power
ful influences to bear to secure the appoint
ment The Republican senators are laughing
al Senator Wellington, and telling him that
he ought not to indorse a man if he doesn't
want 70 have him appointed. The young man

NO LARGE BLAEES.
Small Boy and FIrecrncker Haven't
Begun to Work.

The fact that yesterday there were but a
few fire alarms, and none of these of any
consequence, was probably due to the heavy
rain of Saturday night and the fact that a
general observance of the nations holiday
was postponed until today.
The first alarm was early yesterday morn
ing, when a box car, leased by the Mime
apolis Bedding company, caught fire on the
railroad tracks on Division F-:eet between
Fifth and Sixth avenues northeast. The car
was loaded with old rags, and much
damaged. Later in the day a still alarm was
caused by the breaking out of the same fire.
AT 2046 Second avenue south yesterday aft
sulphur and nitrate exploded and scorched a
room in the house. No one was burned
A shed at 1922 Eighteenth avenue south was
slightly scOrched by a stubborn gasoline stove,
but there was no loss.

HARMONY IN OHIO.
So Says Hanna's Secretary of the Re-
publican National Committee,

Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, July 4.-Mark Han
mas private secretary, Perkins, has
been interviewed by a local paper be-
cause he is now advanced to the dis
tinction of secretary to the Republ-
can national committee, and is also
the confidential custodian Of Mark
Hanna's senatorial boom. The sensa-
ton of being interviewed made the lit
tie man nervous; but, after plucking
at his symptoms of a blonde mus
tache, he bravely announced that all
of the factions in the Republican party
of Ohio are fairly reeking with har-
nony. Senator Foraker enjoys play
ing second fiddle to Hanna. EX-Chair-
man Kurtz is glad that he was snub-
bed by Hanna; and all of the Foraker
ties like to have Hanna stand on their
cornS.
That is the gist of the interview
given by the veracious private secre-
tary.
