MAN Is TURNING TO STONE.
George Lewis of Cross Keys, n. J., Vic
tim of Strange Ma1ady.

George Lewis of Cross Keys, n. J., Vic
tim of Strange Ma1ady.
George w. Lewis of Gross Keys, n. j.,
is gradually turning to stone. Mr.. Lewis
about seven years ago found that his i'm
gers were beginning to get stiff and that
he could move them only with difficulty.
This stiffness crept up his arms and soon
from the elbow down the flesh began to
harden. The arms are now useless. The
skin is drawn tightly over the bones, the
sinews are contracted and the hands are
like marble. The prick of a pin or needle
is not felt, neither does Il cut show any
blood whatever. Mr.. Lewis feet and
lower limbs began to stiffen and harden
two years ago and are gradually becom-
ing useless. The skin on his face is also
drawing tightly over the bones and at the
present rate of progress of the disease he
will soon turn to stone altogether.

SUICIDE BY FORCE OF WILL.
Frank kIufsky Abstains from Food
for About Eight Weeks.

for About Eight Weeks.
Frank Klufsky, living at Is Pelton al
ley, Cleveland, undertook, about eight
weeks ago, to starve himself to death. He
has succeeded, and death has come to his
relief. His case is one of the strangest
ON record. He was always eccentric, but
ne had extraordinary will power, and he
used it to a degree few people could
equal in successfully resisting all at
tempts on the part of his wife, friends
and physicians to prevent his eXtraordi-
nary death. At one time he possessed
considerable means, but lost nearly all of
his money and worry over his troubles
weighed heavily on his mind. About eight
weeks ago he announced his intention OF
refusing to eat. He spent the days lying
on his bed in a stuffy little attic room
and meditating on his troubles. He be-
came savage and morose in disposition
and refused the food his wife prepared.
He fixed his death to take place as soon
as he had sold the little property remain
ing to him. Recently he made the sale,
turned the $500 which resulted over to his
wife, and seriously entered on the bust
ness of dying. True to his prophecy, he
passed away in less than a week after
the sale.

half brother in cottage in Mt. Vernon
avenue. He went to bed as usual and
his brother left him asleep when he went

an hour later the mother was awakened
by a scream issuing from her sons room
and rushing in, found him lying in his
blood, his brains having been battered
out with club or something of the kind.
Mrs. Meagher thought she detected re.
treating footsteps as she opened the hall
door, but saw no one. The police have
no clue to guide them in their search for

The recent bringing i'm of the great

further evidence that the Corsicana dis

BALLOON FLIES AwAY
MINE PEOPLE LAND SAFELY
NEAR PEscADERo. CAL.
Passengers Vivid Description of tho
Perilous Trip-Says He Would Not
Undergo Same Adventure Again
for Any Consideration.

The MIN occupants of the car of the
balloon which escaped from San Fran
cisco Saturday arrived safely Sunday in
that city. The balloon was landed near
iPescadero. fifty miles from the city, and
but II short distance from the ocean. The
balloon was in the air nearly two hours,
and ut one time was out ut sea, but was
blown back over the land.
Those who made the involuntary trip
were: ED L. Dudley, aeronaut; \. Il.
Dodge. Ed Foster. jr.: Walter Leon. C.
p. Nildcco1, j. +. Leonard. NJ. l.. EIo-
warth, John a. M. Swift and Mrs. j. L.
Gmnsalus. When the balloon broke its
bonds it sailed away in a southcrly dircc-
ton. South of Redwood City it strucl:
another current. which took it toward
the ocean, over the summit of the coast
range. Nineteen miles from La Honda.
and about six miles from Pcscadcro. lies
Beatty Thomson's place. Thomson was
up and out when the balloon came along.
and the graphing hook Slipped through
trees and raked along brnshy patches of
ground. by this time much of the gas
had been let out OF the balloon and the
power was weak: the rop that held it
snapped and the captive became a l7lna-
way and was sweeping along the ground.
When it came within Thomson's reach
he graspcd it and bore down with all
his weight. This stopped the flight.
Soon the balloon was brought to the
ground and eight ovcrioyed passengers
and the acronaut alightcd and took sup
per with Thomson.
\. IL. Dodge, one of the passengers. de-
sclibing the trip, said that the balloon
first started toward Oakland, and after
circling about for IL time drifted south
ward and became stationary for a short
period. Then in response to Il breeze
from the eastward it sailed over the San
Mateo hills and stood far out over the
ocean. The hearts of all the occupants
of the wicker cage We're filled with fear
as the prospect of being dumped into the
ocean stared them in the face. Twice.
according to Dolge's story, the balloon
dipped close to the surface of the water,
but rose again, each time. to Il consider
able altitude. Finally Il breeze from the
sea caught the balloon and carried it
back over the lame and after dragging
the cage through the tops of Il grove
landed it on Il hillside. six miles from
Pcscadero.
ut was Il terrible experience said
Dodge, "and | would not undergo the
same adventure again for any considera-
ton. Everybody was more or less
shaky, while the woman passenger and
two or three men were so sick that they
sat in the bottom of the basket through
on: the trip"
