We have just discovered that we
have a passing acquaintance with
the celebrated Captain Lucas, of
Beaumont, Texas, oil fame. He
visited at J w Rufus (where we
met hlm) winter before last on
several occasions. He was then
prospecting for deposits of pyrites
of iron, used in the production of
sulphuric acid. We recollect him
as quite a genial, pleasant, com
panionable gentleman; he told of
some amusing adventures while
sojourning in the mountain region
though we have forgotten wheth-
er it was in Georgia, or Alabama
that he had to seek refuge one
night in zero weather, with
family Of amazons. The house
hold of this mountaineer was
composed, excepting the old folks,
entirely of daughters every one Of
whom he judged to be six feet tall
and robust according and all such
experts in the use of an axe as to
make masculine wood-chopper
feel himself a back number. They
smiled pityingly when he COM
planned of the cold, and when he
warmed his plate the next morn

heartily congratulate him on his

Farmers wife Accused Of Being In League
with the Devil and Bsnished.

INDIANAPOLIS, June i3.-Mrs. Catherine
Ferry. the wife OF German farmer
OF Dubois county. has been driven
away from her homo by the threats OF
neighbors who charge her with being a
witch and say that abe has worked her evil
charms to their injury by causing the
death OF their horses. cattle and other live
stock. Yesterday one Of her neighbor's
horses became unmanageable and he ac-
cused Mrs. Ferry Of having bewitched 1t
and in his anger assaulted her and gave
her severe whipping.
1t appears that this was the signal for
the uprising In the neighborhood generally
against the woman. for when she appealed
10 some Of them for protection they also
turned against her and the local Magistrate
refused to interfere. II is charged that she
has the power Of evoking the evil spirit In
man or beast and that she has caused. the
death of several persons.
Mrs. Ferry is 90 years old and has been
a resident Of tho county for many years.
She says that tho people have been preju-
diced against her from some cause for three
orfour years, but 1t wa, not till neighbor's
child died two months ago and she at
tended the funeral that she learned that
she was suspected Of being In league with
the devil.
She denies that she ever harmed any
one or that she has been the cause. either
directly or remotely, Of the ills that her
neighbors charge against her.
