Is He CLAIRVOYANT?
What Prominent Physician Thinks
as Regards Johnstone's Powers.

Ever since his arrival in town Paul
Alexander tombstone has been the
source of almost endless comment In
speaking of JohnstOne's powers very
prominent local physician said:
4 believe he is clairvoyant. I have
followed his career for years and have
read of many of his exploits that cannot
be explained on the grounds of thought
transference or palmistry. For in
stance l saw him while blindfOlded
dive in lake after a hidden needle and
he found it. How could that have been
mind reading? I had him read my palm
the other day and he told me any num-
Der of things as regards my past which
l. at the time, had not in my mind. He
told me of my business and financial
affairs and advised me what to do. He
iagnosed for me my physical condition
and let me say in parentheSis that he
diagnosed the disease as it has never
before been diagnosed and he diagnosed
it accurately. Moreover he told me
how to treat the condition and 1 am al
ready receiving specific benefit. I want
to tell you that the man is simply a
revelation and while there may be some
thought reading and pa1mistry to it, he
goes way beyond either or both of these.
You understand that 1 am not talking
with authority from Mr.. tombstone, L
am simply giving you my IDEAS"
DR.. tombstone is giving palm readings
at $40 Harrison street. His fee is 81,
and his patronage is so large that at
times it is necessary to make an en-
gagement in order to see him.

A FIGHT ON USURERS
Has Been Inaugurated by ST. Louis
Police Officials.

st. Louis, Oct 3-Governor Stephens.
Police Commissioner Halves and Chief
of Police Campbell, who have inaugu-
rated a war on the usurers of this cfty
have returned from New York. where
they went to see officials of the Western
Union Telegraph company and get
them to rescind a rule under which en-
plOyes were discharged when served
with garnishment.
For years employees of the telegraph
companies, as well as those of railroad
and other concerns in St Louis have
suffered from the exorbitant interest
charges made by so-called money
sharks" for loans. In some cases a S
high as 40 per cent per month has been
paid by those luckless enough to have
to borrow money. This had become
such burden that it is said more than
one man has given up trying to pay &C
cumulated interest and committed sui
eide.
Recently the telegraphers of st. Louis
started a club to fight the usurers and
now the matter has been taken DID in
this city by Police Commissioner Harry
B. Halves, a prominent attorney, who
announces that he will proceed against
any of the usurers when proper cases
are presented, free of charge
1t is stated that while the party that
went to New York, failed to secure a
complete annullment of the rule calling
for the dismissal of offending employees
they did receive a promise that it would
be used only in the most fragrant cases.
The outcome of the fight is looked for
with interest as its results may be far
reaching.

BESIEGED BY BOYS.
Chicago Family Imprisoned
For IA Hours by a Mob.

Chicago, Oct. 3.-Isaac Schlesinger,
his wife and two children were held
prisoners fourteen hours at their home
in West Taylor street by a crowd of
200 boys. During most of this time the
family were compelled to go without
food, as their larder was empty. Fear
ing that an attack would be made upon
them Schlesinger barricaded the doors
of his home and waited for night to
fall believing that then the crowd
would dispense. 1t was not until II
o'clock at night that the family could
get out and inform the police.
The trouble started when Schlesinger
was chased by a crowd Of youngsters
near his home. While running one of
the boys fell and hurt himself.
Limping on one leg and crying pitt
fully the boy aroused the sympathy of
his companions and they vowed sum-
mary vengeance against Schlesinger.
The man was chased into his house
and an attempt was made to enter it,
but Schleisinger locked the door
A number of the boys went into the
side streets and called for help. The
crowd was augmented to 200 and they
surrounded the house of Schlesinger.
Threat were made by the crowd on the
outside and they demanded that Schle-
singer come out. Brickbats and other
missiles were held in the hands of the
Infatuated boys. Occasionally one would
throw q stone through Schlesinger~s
windows. but this damage to his house
did not bring him out. After waiting
ten hours a number of the boys sug-
gested that they break into the house
and drag Schlesinger into the street A
number Of them tried to kick in the
front door and Schlesinger barricaded

PRESSURE GREAT.
At the War Department for Discharge
of Volunteers.

Washington, Oct. 3.-Although there
has been less pressure for the muster
ing out of volunteers since announce
ment was made that the troops could
not be spared, the demand continues
with sufficient persistence to convince
the war officials that a reorganization
of the army will be necessary and that
some arrangement will have to be made
to secure a force for garrison service in
the islands and the states, which will
not be subject to the same difficulties
experienced in the case of the VOlun-
teers. Although the pressure for the
muster out of entire regiments is not so
great the demand for the discharge of
individuals has overwhelmed the de-
partment
There is scarcely a senator or repre-
sentative who has not presented re-
quests of this kind and there is a con-
slant demand for the discharge of one
man, or another upon some pretext,
which would not be deemed valid in the
case Of men in the regular army. Per
sonaI appeals are made by fathers,
mothers, wives, sisters and sweet
hearts. Every man in the department
who is supposed to have any influence
is sought to secure the discharge of en-
listed men, who have tired of the life of
soldering.
These requests and the demands for
mastering out have no doubt had their
effect in making the war officials seek
some more satisfactory method of army
organization for the purpose for which
the army will be needed in the future.

FUNNIEST NOTES.

Erske Davis was the first Turner to
climb the AZ foot rope to the top this
morning. In addition to this he came
down and without stopping went back
II feet. Mr.. Davis is a member of the
Marysville class.
One of the best jumpers of the high
rope among the cOnteSting Turner's is
Mike Herboldsheimer He is a member
ing vaulted five feet and ten inches
easily.
Fred Krause is one of the active
Turner's who is doing much towards
making the present meeting success.
Otto Kuehne looks after everything at
the funniest and sees that the work
is being carried out according to pro
gramme. He is an invaluable member.
The visitors came early to Turner
garden this morning. Before 10 o clock
a large number of interested spectators
were present to watch the classes in
contest.
There was much disappointment felt
among the Turner's because the num-
erOus engagements of Miss Rose pre-
vented her from attending the Garden
today and Witnessing a special drill by
the young ladies'
Between drills and contests the mas
cot band of LeaVenWOrth are always
ready to render a few pleasing airs
The rush for sandwiches is one of the
interesting features connected with the
present funniest. 1t isn't confined TO
the supper or dinner hours but is
steady thing. Rye bread and sWitzer IS
the favOrite.
While the young ladies do not give
public exhibitions on the horizontal
bar many of them can do some of the
difficult feats performed by the boys.
Such a crowd was present last even
ing that the gymnasium was perfect
lam and the dancing space was con-
fined to so small a circle that it made
the dancers dizzy going around.
