TRAPPING THIEVES IN INDIA.
Brahmin Who is the Worker o.
Seeming Miracles.

"A
Seeming Miracles.
From the Madras Weekly Mail.
The following extraordinary narration
of facts as they occurred, and which, we
are informed, were witnessed and can be
testified to by the members of three house
holds occupying large house in Bentinck
street, Calcutta, are SO remarkable that
it is worth the while of any scientist to
test them personally, as this can be easily
done on the occasion of any theft by do
mestics In house. 1t may be added that
every servant in Calcutta is a lively be-
lever in it's efficacy, and, if a thief, at once
ccnfesses. A Brahmin is the worker OF
these marvels. He is we'll known in Cal
cutta, and does not profess to work out
his method of theft detection for money,
but leaves it to those who employ him to
reward him if they think fit. 1t is said
that this is readily done, and that he makes
a good thing out of it.
A cook in the service of a family in the
locality alluded to intrusted his nephew
with a large sum of money to keep in de-
posit. The nephew alleged that he placed
the money in an earthen pot, which he
buried. The location of the exact spot was
confided to a friend. Shortly after this
the cook was informed by his nephew that
the pot and money had disappeared. With
summoned to discover the thief and the

traordinary procedure he adopted. and

Snakes In India.
From the London News

From the London News. -
Snakes are one of the scourges of India.
Thousands of people die yearly from their
bite. In the last twenty-five years the
number of deaths attributed to this cause
has reached the enormous total Of 433 $50
Snakes appear to be a much more deadly
enemy of man than wild animals. In the
same period wild animals have only killed
81 2S4 persons. On an average in India
10000 people perish yearly by snakes and
wild animals. The number of deaths in
recent years has shown a marked increase
In 1878 the number was q ,266. in 1s9S If
had risen to 24.335. Bengal is the most
dangerous province to live in, for the BEN
galese snakes are responsible for half the
deaths from snakebite The loss of cattle
has also been very great. Since 1875 about
a million and half animals have been de-
stroyed. Wild animals are responsible for
nine-tenths of the cattle killed. In 1895
for instance. 7,143 animals died from snake
bite, but 81 ,397 were killed by wild beasts.

Little Rock, Ark, Jan. S.-A special
to the Gazette from Fort Smith, Ark,
saws:
Justice in a more horrible form than
that melted out to Henry Smith at
Paris, Tex, was administered by a
mob on the Oklahoma border on Fri
day night to ]. Marcus McGeisy and
Palmer Simpson, two Seminole Indians.
They were charged with murder, their
victim being Mrs. James Simmons,
respectable farmers wife living in Ok
lahoma.
The crime was a most revolving one,
and the criminals were punished in
most revolving manner.
Mrs Simmons was outraged and
murdered, and her body was horribly
mutiiated. The crime rivalled in afro
city those perpetrated in the Creek ma
ton by the infamous Buck gang, the
members of which were hanged at Fort
Smith two years ago. The murderers'
mutilation of Mrs. Simmons so enraged
the neighbors that nearly the entire
populace turned out to hunt down and
punish the guilty parties.
The trail led the posse to the home of
McGeisv near Maud a small town in
the Seminole nation, where McGeisy
and Simpson were arrested. After Sc
curing their prisoners, the mob set fire
to McGeiSy'S house and barn, and did
not leave until they saw all of his
earthly possessions reduced to ashes.
The prisoners were then carried back
across the line into Oklahoma terri
tory, and near the scene of their crime
they were executed by Judge Lynch's
orders in the most horrible manner
that human hands and human minds
could devise. They were burned at the
stake. The Indians met their doom
with the usual stoicism of their race.
After life was extinct the mob allowed
the fires to die down, and then they
quietly dispersed to their several
homes.
No secret was made of the fact that
the Indians had been burned to death,
and this morning their charred bodies,
burned beyond recognition, were found
lying in the ashes of their funeral pyre.
Everybody in the vicinity seem to
know that the Indians were executed
for the murder of Mrs. Simmons, but
everybody appears to be entirely ig-
norant of the individuals who COM
posed the mob. Information was re-
ceived here of the terrible affair from
persons who saw the charred bodies of
the Indians.
Great uneasiness exists along the
Oklahoma border, and the impression
prevails that much more bloodshed will
follow the work of the mob.
This is the third instance of mob vio-
lence reported in the Indian Territory
in the last % years, and by a singular
coincidence the mob in each case came
from points outside of the territory.
