When the sullen waters of the Illi-
nois River gave up their dead In the
person of Mrs. Lucy Sommers some
time ago there was not only cleared up
one OF the deepest mysteries that has
ever occurred In Peoria, but at the
same stme there was evidence estab-
ished corroboratory of most extra
ordinary case of second sight
One night early In January Mrs. Lucy
sommers, who was visiting her sister,
Mrs. r. b. Craig at SD Fayette street
III Peoria, suddenly disappeared. She
had been Ill and suffering at times from
sl1ght attacks of dementia, though 1t
was not supposed that they were of
serious nature. But ON the night men
TONED she arose from her bed, and an
nouncing to her mother, who was
watching with her, that she was going
to get drink she left the room and
was never after seen alive. When she
did not return her mother gave the
alarm and the inmates of the house
turned out to hunt for her, supposlng,
or course, that in a fit of temporary
alteration she had wandered to the
house Of one Of the neighbors But the
most diligent inquiry failed to reveal
her whereabouts and then the family
became genuinely alarmed. A search
Ing party was organized and they set
out to find her. The ground was not
frozen and they soon came upon foot
prints IN the mud and going from the
house.
These We're followed as far as they
could be in the darkness, when the
party returned home to await the COM
Ing OF day before renewing the search.
When the morning broke, however, the
earth was frozen hard and the trail
abandoned the night before was hard
to follow. New parties were added,
and reward offered for the discovery
Of the woman dead or alive. The coun-
try was secured for miles In either d.
rection, but always without result.
Sometimes they fancied they had
discovered the broken trail, but these
fragmentary discoveries led to nothing
tangible. At last, In despair the reln-

tives invoked the aid Of bloodhounds.
The trail they followed was a devious
and winding one, running from the
Craig home, on Fayette street. north
by northeast to Glen Oak Park, thence
In westerly direction to Bradley Park,
outside the city's limits and on Its
western border. Here the trail grew
faint and 1t was only with difficulty
that It was continued to the Easton
farm. where It was lost, and the dogs
stopped and never after did they get
any further
At this juncture little Grace Holmes
appeared on the scene. She Is a child
about ten years old and especially
bright for her age Her parents are
uneducated people and not in the best
Of circumstances. She declared that
while lying In her bed at home more
than n mile from the Craig house she
had seen the unfortunate woman come
out Of the house, climb over the fence
and make her way stealthily to the
river, where she had plunged into an
opening left by the icemen the day be-
fore.
This statement was borne out by the
parents, who asserted that she had told
the story identically as repeated on
coming downstairs In the morning, and
that this was long before she could
possibly have had an opportunity of
learning the facts in the case from any
source whatsoever. The child was
questioned closely, but she stuck to her
story with a persistence that began to
disarm suspicion. She described the
garments worn by Mrs. Sommers Mt
the time of her departure, and to the
surprise Of her listeners her descrip-
ton proved to be entirely correct
!, At length in response to her earnest
solicitations she was allowed to go
out and point out the resting place of
the woman she insisted was In the
river. She started from the house ac-
conlpanied by her father and others
and followed the streets she claimed to
have seen Mrs. Sommers follow until
she came to the foot Of Spring street
From there she pointed out the eX-
act spot at which Mrs. Sommers had

ging party was at once put to work
searching the hidden depths to wrest
from them their secret. The hour
passed, the afternoon and the day, but
nothing was brought from the lake.
In strict justice 1t must be said that
the dragging process was not carried
on according to her directions. She
now declares that the net never touch
er the body reposing on the bottom of
the lake.
When 1t was known that the drag
ging had been unproductive those who
had based their faith on the child's
judgment began to waver and she was
denounced as a fraud of the most pro-
nounced type. Then severe cold
spell set in and the lake was locked in
Ice and the matter began to fade from
the public mind. Not so the little girl.
1t was useless to tell her that she must
be mistaken.
She declared that the body was still
In the water, that she could see 1t and
persisted In going to the river at in
teryals. During these visits she made
the acquaintance of Captain Hefele,
of the steamer Gazelle. She went to
the captain and solemnly asserted that
the body was fast to n snag In the bot
tom of the river. The captain paid no
attention to the child. regarding the
whole thing as one of her hallucina-
tlons. Again and again she went to
him, begging him to go and release the
body. Nothing would put her OFF. She
declared that she could see the body
and would not rest until 1t was re-
leased
At length there came day when the
waters of the staid Illinois were far
above their banks. The wind was
blowing a hurricane and when the oc-
cupants of cabin boat on the Taze-
we'll side of the stream looked out of
the window they saw what looked like
bag of some kind floating in the
water among the willows in which
their boat was fastened. A hasty ex-
animation convinced them that 1t was
human body, and upon rowing to Its
side 1t proved to be the body of the
long-lost Mrs. Sommers. When the

TRUTH ABOUT APPENDICITIS.
Some Mistaken and Popular Notions

Some Mistaken and Popular Notions
Corrected.
The vermform appendix, lnflamma.
tion of which constitutes appendicitis,
is n curious little offshoot from the
large Intestine near the point where II
Is Joined by the small Intestine. 1t Is
hollow tube about as thick as q lead
pencil, from an inch to several inches
In length, which communicates with
closed ut its free extremity. Nobody
knows definitely what its use Is, nnd
many think 1t has no use at all.
i, 1t Is a popular belief that infiamma.
ton of the appendix Is often caused by
the lodgment in It of a grape seed or
some similar little body, but as mat.
ter of fact this very seldom occurs, and
no one need deprive himself of deli
eious and nourlshlng fruit from any
such fear.
There are probably very few persons
of middle age who have not had ap
pendicitis, but fortunately they did not
know 1t. 1t is only when the lnfam
nation becomes severe, and involves
the parts about the appendix, that VIC
lent symptoms appear, and this occurs
in only n small proportion of cases.
The disease Is more frequent with
or old.
In mild cases the only symptom Is 0
slight dull or colicky pain In or neal
the right groin. When the infiamma
ton Is more severe, or extends to the
neighboring parts the symptoms be
come more pronounced. There Is 8
sharp pain in the abdomen, signs OF
dyspepsia-loss of appetite, nausea OF
vomiting and bowel dlsturbances-art
present, and there Is often slight fever
In the most serious cases sudden
violent pain occurs, there is a marked
fever, and the patient Is depressed and
presents all the signs of being very i'll

tom. The treatment of appendicitis Il
one of the points upon which doctors
disagree. Some believe that In nearly
every case cure will follow rest In
bed, milk die, cold applications to
the abdomen, and sedative remedies.
Others say that an operation is neces-
sary In every instance, and that this
should be performed the instant n dag
nosls OF appendicitis Is made, before
serious symptoms appear.
The proper course, here as elsewhere,
Is doubtless the middle one, for In

from the bottom of the river, being

around several times moved away

A Wonderful Engine.

The heart of man Is a wonderful
pumping engine. Let us try to form
some estimate of its work. In twenty
four hours 1t does an amount of work
which, If gathered up into one big lift,
would lift 124 tons weight one foot off
the ground. This calculation is made
by noting how much force the heart ex'
erts at one stroke, and by multiplying
its strokes and their work for the
twenty-four hours.

Mechanical Curiosities

The lie Droz family, Of Neufchatel,
in Switzerland, were famous makers
of mechanical curiosities. One of these
was a clock, presented to the King of
Spain, having sheep and dog attached
to it. The sheep would bleat in exact
imitation of a live one, while the dog
was placed in custody of a basket of
loose. fruit. If any one removed the
fruit, he would growl snarl, gnash his
teeth, and endeayor to bite, until 1t was
restored. Another was an oval gold
snuff box, about four and one-half
inches long by three inches broad, and
one inch and one-half thick 1t was
double, as though one box were placed
on top of another, with a lid for each.
One contained snuff. In the other, as
soon as the lid was opened, there rose
up very small bird of green enameled
gold, sitting upon gold stand. Imme-
diately this minute curiosity shook its
wings, wagged its tail, opened its bill
of white enameled gold, and poured
forth, minute as 1t was, being only
three-quarters of an inch from the beak
to the extremity Of the tail, such q
clear, melodious song as would have
filled room of twenty or thirty feet
square with its harmony.

In Memory.

Fell asleep in Jesus on the 18th
day of November. 1900, Willie
Howard, son of Sue ond Il. II.
Yates.
Little Howard has gone home.
His stay on earth is over. AS you
looked ON his pure and faultless
features you could realize the pu-
rity of heaven, remembering that
Christ has said. unless ye become
as little children ye can in nowise
enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
For five years the smiles of lit
tie Howard greeted all who came
near him. 1t would seem that his
visit here was to show us how
lovely and bright are the seraphs
of the golden city, and that he
might cause one to make greater
efforts to gain a home within it's
jasper walls. 1t will be Joy to join
him there.
Dear parents, weep not for little
Howard; remember that his days
and nights of pain are over; and
now he rests with the purified,
reckoning to you from across the
river to come to him. His smiles
are sweeter than ever before; the
little eyes that will never more be
dim with tears eageily watches for
the loved ones left behind; the
little tongue that could only sing
the sweet songs here is now sing
ing the praise of his Heavenly
Father to shout the glad hallelu-
jhas with the glori6ed throng. If
he could speak to you today he
would bid you not weep for him
as his sufferings are lnow past and
he awaits the coming of papa and
mama, sister and brother, How
great will be the reunion in the
sweet by and by.
He has crossed the silent river
And within the gates of gold!
There to tune his harp in glory
Till his voice In praises roll.
for our coming
There he hast oft before
We will find our little Howard
Not dead, but gone before.
How we miss our little Howard
And our home is now iorsaken
Though he is with the angels
Which like stars Gods crown adorn'
The cherished one is in heaven
With bright angels ever more,
He will wait and watch our coming
No. dead but gone before.

BRYAN'S PLANS.
Will Become an Editor and Pub
Usher at Lincoln.

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 15.-Wm.
], Bryan gave out the following
interview today:
Il haye for several years had in
contemplation the establishment
of weekly newspaper, and this
seems an opportune time for un-
dertaking it. l intend to devote
my life to study and discussion Of
public questions. I have taken
this method because it will best
accomplish the purpose which l
have in view. Through a paper l
will be able to keep in touch with
social, economic and political ques
tons. The paper will at the same
time, if successful, provide an in
come sufficient for my pecuniary
needs, and the work will allow me
more time with my family than 1
have been able to enjoy for several
years past.
Il expect to lecture occasional
ly, especially in college towns,
where I can speak TO students, but
my principal work will be done
with the pen, or perhaps l should
say, with the pencil.
"The paper will be called, the
'Commoner,' and will defend the
principles set forth in the Kansas
City platform. I shall be publish
er and editor, and Lincoln will be
the place of publication.
