MARRIED FOUR TIMES.
Underwood, Clark county, Ind, oc-
cupieS a promontory which commands
a view of the Ohio. Here Sarah Buffin,
a much-married woman, lives, who
was born Dec. 5, 1896. She has had
four husbands and has given birth to
twenty children. She survives them
all. Mrs. Buffin was born at Etowa
Ga. She was married early, but her
first husband died after a few years.
She married again, but was again left
a widow. She was married a third
time along in the 30s, and that hus-
band went to the Mexican war. He
also fought in the Civil war, but with
the North. Later he died a natural
death. During the rebellion, while he
was fighting in the North, their home
lands were made the backgrounds
of several conflicts. Gen. Sooy Smith
was in command of the Union forces
in one engagement and there he met
her. She gave him her house as head
quarters and for that and other kind
nesses she showed the northerners her
home was confscated by the South
and she was turned out penniless. Her
accident she again met Gen. Smith.
He procured a pension, and, boxing
her things up, put her on boat and
started her for Indiana. She landed
near where Underwood now stands
and began to make her home. While
en- route all of he possessions had been
stolen by deck hands, and when she
landed in Indiana she was practically
penniless. She went to work, how
ever, and a few years later was mar
ried fourth time, the groom this time
being Mr. Buffin. They lived happily
until he died a few years ago. In the
meantime she had buried all of her
children. She Is now dragging out her
existence en- a little eight-acre farm

days. From the same phenomena the suns
rotation at its equator has been determined
to be about 2670 days. This period CORE :
sponds almost exactly with that of the forces
detected within the earth's magnetic field
1858 days. This agreement is in harmony
with the supposition. that the true period of
the suns rotation is that at it's equator and
not at the mean of the sun spot belts.
PRACTICAL VALUE OF THE DISCOVER
les.
Although new to the popular mind today
this interesting theory that the sun and earth
are magnets was discussed by scientists forty
years ago, but dscredited and discarded on
what Prof. bigelow says were insufficient
magnetism as far as the earth-93, 900, 900
miles away-must be a magnet of greater
strength than could be admitted within the
category of probability. Recent observations,
however, indicate that the suns magnetic
force at the surface of the earth is nor
mally one-half intense that of q satur-
ated steel magnet, and occasionally ten times
as great.
When asked as to the effect his interest
ing discoveries might have upon weather
forecasting in the future, Prof. Bigelow said
that he had found an interesting connection
between magnetic laws and weather condi-
tions. Temperature and pressures in the
Northwestern part of this country have been
found 10 possess the period and the
same semi-annual inversion of the type curve
explained before-as those estimated for
the magnetic forces. The magnetic period

data dating back fifty years, will give to
meteorologists a new method of classifying

be found along the north shore. AS you ap-
proach the lower end Of the lake the banks
are OF clay, quite high and coming down
into deep water.
THE lake gradually grows narrow, and
before you are aware of its proximity you
are entering the Hootalinqua river, which
is the outlet of this large body of water. We
expected to find narrow river, but in
stead of that there was no current to speak
of for some miles. AS we proceeded down
the river, which is 1S0 miles long, the speed
of the current increased until it was run
ming at the rate Of about five miles an hour
The Hootalinqua is perfectly safe for any
rowboat and navigable for light draught
steamers through its entire length. The
same can be said of the rest Of the route to
Forty-Mile with one exception. This excep,
tion is the Five Finger rapids which any
boat can run with ordinary caution without
unloading. b'.t

w. H. Griffin, who made the trip from
Dawson City up to the head Of Tes-L;n lake
last fall, made the following statement to
me:
"Tes-Lin lake is about 240 miles long and
averages about three miles in width. A large
but sluggish river empties into it at its upper
end and here the Indians have their canoe
cache where they leave their boats during
their absence while goingf to and coming from
Juneau on their annual trips to dispose of
their furs.
Here, at the head Of the lake. we built
our boats and started on our prospecting.
There are three streams emptying into the
lake from the north. Two of these, the
Oklohene and the Netticene, quite large
and very swife. There is only one river run
ming in from the south. There is no part
of the lake that is not navigable for light
draught steamers, and the greater part of it
is extremely deep. In some places we were
unable to find bottom with 100-foot line.
The shores are for the most part rocky and
precipitous, but beautiful camping places can

SAN FRANCISCO Oct. 3O-In order
to facilitate the settlement of the es-

were placed in three dress-suit valises.
