Human Target for Bullets.

CHICAGO, ILL. July lO.-Five pistol
shots were fired to-day at the breast Of
Inventor Cassimer Zieglen, incased in
bullet-proof cloth. They were dis
charged from revolvers ranging in
calibre from 80 to A. Lieutenant
Sarnecki of the Austrian Army fred
the shots at a distance Of 10 PAGES.
Medical men were present with long
knives and probing instruments, ex-
pecting a catastrophe.
So convinced were they of the
invulnerability of the armor, however,
after three shots had been fred at
Zciglen, that DR.. T. Il. Westerschulte,
one of their number, allowed the
Austrian officer to make a target OF
him.
Zeiglcn's bullet-proof cloth had been
previously tried on dogs, sheep and
corpses, but to make the series of cx-
pcrimcnts complete it was necessary
to use a human target. Many people,
both men and women, offered their
services in this capacity for money,
but the inventor refused to permit
anyone to risk his life except himself.
To-day's experiments were held on
the roof Of DR.. L. G. Borland's private
hospital, Ogden ayenue and West
Twelfth street. A cabinet was made
Of wood and iron, with al opening
near the top where zeiglen was to ex-
pose his chest, covered with the bullet
proof cloth, to the aim Of Lieutenant
Sarnecki. Zieglen expresseduno fear
Of serious results and took it as quite
a Joke when one of the doctors wanted
to bid him good-by as he stood in
position to receive the bullets.
The first shot was from a 32-caliber
revolver. The minute the smoke
cleared away the spectators rushed to
the cabinet, expecting to see the little
priest seriously injured, if not dead.
Instead of this, he was smiling. The
conclusion, he said, produced a tenn
porary singing sensation, but that
was all.
Then a second shot from the sane
revolver was fired, with the same re-
suits.
For the third test, a 3S-calibrc Colts
revolver was used. Zieglen explained
the sensation this time as though
someone had poked him in the ribs
with his knuckles. There was no
lasting pain.
DR.. Wcstcrschulte became so enthu-
siastic ovcr the experiments that he
asked to take Zieglcn's place for a
shot. One shot from a 32-caliber re-
volvcr was fired at him. Beneath the
cloth he wore but a thin ncgligcc shirt.
yet he declared the conclusion hurt
no more than if someone had given
him a slight poke with a cane.
The last test vas with a big Colts
gun of 43, calibcr. Zieglen stood this
bullet as he did the rest, the only diff
ference being a little greater care.
After the tests, Zicglen was stripped
and examined, but not a mark could
be found on his body.-&. Louis

Charleston, S. G., a most cstimable
and accomplished lady. Seven chill
dren, three sons and four daughters,
blessed this union. He is the kind
est of husbands, the most indulgent of
fathers.
Judge Izlar is above the medium
size and of commanding presence. In
the abandon of social life he is at his
best. 1t is here that his amiability
of disposition finds full play. He
meets and mingles with his fellow
citizens on terms of perfect equality,
and has nothing Of hauteur or assum-
ed dignity about him. He is a
charming companion, afable and en-
tertaining. His genial wit, mex
haustible fund of anecdote and wide
information, united with his pleasant
bearing make him a great social favor
ite.
He has always dispensed a generous
hospitality, and is never happier than
when entertaining friends at his de-
lightful home. Judge Izlar is one Of
the kindest and most benevolent Of
men. His generosity is prodigal.
This is one of the striking traits of
his character. He gives to every
thing and to every onc who applies to
him for assistance. Every appeal for
charity meets a ready response from
him. His nature is so sympathetic
and generous that it is doubtful if he
ever refused an appeal for aid. He
seems to know no value in money,
and freely spends his income for the
good of others. Above all, Judge L.
lar is an humble Christian. While
the religious element is strong in his
nature, he is absolutely free from
narrowness and bigotry. He is a
devoted member of the Episcopal
Church.
Judge Izlar's life has been marked
by the faithful discharge Of every
duty, public and private. He is still
actively engaged in the practice of
his profession, and enjoying the con-
fdencc and esteem of those among
whom his life has been spent, and
for whom he has labored and loved,
with the promise of years Of use
fulness and honor still before him.
For this beautiful sketch Of the
life. of one of Cardinals most gifted
sons, I am indebted to a most distin
guished and able member of the Bar
Of the State. Respectfully,

Cursed God and Punished.
SpeciaL to atlanta Journal.

ADRIAN, July 14.-This community
is thoroughly aroused over the weird
rumor of a divine visitation which
comes from Troops Ferry, just be-
yond the Oconec river and about 20
miles from here. The story, while it
surpasses belief, is repeated in every
quarter and the people of the surround
ing country are wrought up to the
highest pitch of religious excitement
over it. The strange story follows:
One night last week several negro
turpentine workers we're playing cards
near the ferry. One negro had seven
dollars at the beginning of the game,
but lost steadily until at last he had
left only one dollar. Holding this
high above his head, he swore that if
he lost it, he would curse God. In
the next deal he lost it, aud in conse-
quence, he executed his oath.
No sooner had he done so, than he
was heard to scream, and his compan-
ions on looking at him, saw that sui
phurous flames poured from his mouth,
ears, eyes and nose.
Terribly frightened, they at first
ran away, but soon returned and en-
deavored to relieve his sufferings.
Water poured upon him was without
avail. A blanket was straightforward
and they attempted to wrap him with
it, in order to extinguish the flames,
but the would-be rescuers were kept
away by some mysterious power.
About four feet was as near as an ap-
proach could be made to the unfortu-
nate victim.
Then, thinking that the log on
which he sat was in some way respon-
sible for his predicament, they began
to saw it off near the point on which
he sat. The first incision Of the saw
caused blood to drip from it and to
fall, with the sawdust, to the ground.
An Ak was next sent for but it's use
revealed the fact that in every part
the log was filled with veins of blood.
Then they drew a moose of a rope
over the negro's body and tried to
pull him away from his position.
According to reports they might as
we'll have attempted to draw a star
from the sky. The rope in conse.
quence of it's contact with the body of
the victim, rendered as naught the
great strength of those who would
save him.
There he sits, rumor says, consum-
ing, yet with no probability of ever
being utterly always,
yet aot dead, living in and breathing
the fires of hell, crying for water,
which poured upon him causes him to
scream as mortal was never heard to
shrek before.
1t is said that people flock to see
him, but appealed by the sight, turn
and fee, some with a terror that is
pitcous to witness.
The children of Adrian are tcrroriz-
ed by the rumor and speak of it in
whispers of horror. Night is no more
welcomed, and sleep with them has
only the meaning of q Plutonlan
dream. Il. NJ. CIIETIIAM.

After repeated efforts the Board..has OBJ

This, coming on top of Mr.. Mayfeld's

strength to bis position. Mr. Mayfield,

is good one for the Boston capitalists
though it bears very heavily on other
Americans whose capital is invested in
Cuban sugar plantations. The Bostonians,
in addition to getting their sugar marketed
cheaper than their competitors can posi-
bly, do, bring back American gold, which is
received III payment, change it into de-
preciated paper currency at handsome
profit and pay the laborers on their plan
tations in this scrip. The whole transac-
ton has been SO profitable that their plea
against the United States intervening in
Cuban affairs, en- the ground of humanity
to the starving country people, was I'M
doubtedly sincere. Intervention on any
ground would interfere with the increased
dividends which the little group of Bos-
ton capitalists las been able to make out
of the misery and the gnawing distress Of
Cuba. They have assurance of labor
enough for their plantations, though the
rest Of the country population of Cuba
may be exterminated.

ROCkEFELLERs BUY A PAPER.
Go Into Politics to Protect Their
Local Interests.

Local interests.
A dispatch from Tarrytown to the New
York Herald says: Have the Rockefellers,
through their counsel, Howard H. Morse,
bought out the controlling interest in the
Press Record, local democratic paper,
published in this village? Such is the ques-
ton that is being asked in Tarrytown. The
Rockefellers have been fighting the asses
sors of the town of Mount Pleasant and of
the village of North Tarrytown, on their
assessments. 1t is understood they have
been greatly annoyed by these lawsuits.
and William Rockefeller one day last spring
remarked to Robert Henry. a sewer COM
missioner in North Tarrytown, that he or
his brother had never taken any active in.
terest in local politics, but that hereafter
they would.
The Press Record has for years been a
very strong democratic sheet. Last week,
In an editorial. 1t announced that 1t may
come out as an independent paper. The
editorials In the paper have been very
strong in favor Of the Rockefellers of late
and have been hitting the assessors hard.
The Rockefellers want to get their men
In power. With the influence of a paper
and with the large force of men which they
employ on their estates they could undoubt-
edly carry the election their way. Two
years ago John D. Rockefeller entered into
politics. and a warmer election was never
witnessed. Mr.. Morse. their present coun-
sci. was elected president over John Web
Der, who was thought tnvincible.

begun on some of the plantations has
given a rowing notiop that peace is on the
eve of prevailing. The crop is about equal
to that of last year, or a trife more than
one-fifth of what 1t was in 1895 The
chances are that the. cane will be ground
and the sugar placed on the market, vet
this will not be because of any protection
the military authorities are able to give. It
will be because the New York parties who
are to handle the product have arranged
to pay the tax the insurgent government
has levied. Their representative who has
been in Cuba has succeeded in his negotia-
tions and the word has been given to pro-
coed with the grinding. For every bag of
sugar that is warehoused so cents will he
paid, or nearly one-sixth of a cent per
pound. The agreement is ironclad and can
not be evaded, because the Insurgents
count the boys in the warehouses. The
financial resources of the revolution will he
materially strengthened through this source
of income.
How Boston People Work.
few planters expect to escape the tax.
The Boston people who have plantations
in the neighborhood of Cienfuegos are
among them. Their influence with national
administrations enabled them to get troops
enough detailed by Weyler to give ade-
quate protection to their plantations with
out paying either troops or insurgents.
In return they were able to show what
seemed to be proof Of ability to influence
Washington sentiment against recognition
of the Insurgents. They expect the same
protection under Blanco. with the same
equivalent on their part. The arrangement
