Mr.. David Nation TestItIes,

Of himself and Ed Sample, of Medi-

her that saloons were outside the pale
of the law and could be abated in any
manner any individual may choose.
The court sustained an objection
made to the evidence and it was with
drawn from the jury. Mrs. Nations

the legality of action can be held re-

against the law. There is some talk

A HUMAN MAGNET.

During a thunder storm Thursday evening, Mrs Archibald Rankin, aged 65 years. received a violent shock from lightning totally paralyzing her, and, when restored to consciousness, she was subjected to an intolerable sensation of prickly heat, resembling being punctured by the points of q thousand needles.
 Some years ago Mrs Rankin was se- verely shocked by lightning, since which time she has been exceedingly sensitive and susceptible to it's infiu- ences. Even the ordinary currents of magnetism which pervade the earth cause her great distress. She has been styled the Human Magnet on ac- count of her keen susceptibility to all electrical disturbances. For years she has been compelled to sleep in bed on the legs of which are glass insulat- ors. She also sits in an insulated chair. Her case has been q puzzle to doctors for years.-Philadelph Times.
