BLIND AND 4 PEARL EXPERT.
4 Tennesseean Who Hunts for and Deals
In the Gems, Though SightIess.

KNOXVILLE, March Joseph Gossett,
aged AZ, of Clinton Tenn. the center of the
great pearl hunting industry, is totally
blind. but he hunts pearls as successfully
as any of the thousands of mountain peo-
pie who swarm along the Clinch and Holston
rivers looking for pearls.
Gossett was among the first persons TO
discover hat the Clinch River pearl existed
He was then hardly q. He sold his first
pearl for $50 and after that became an eager
pearl hunter.
While wadng in the river he contracted
malaria and lost his eyesight, but he did not
give up. The next spring found him al
the head of n gang of pearl hunters. and he
has since been persistent in his work,
He finds the mussels with his hands or
feet by the sense Of touch. After gathering
a quantity of the bivalves he will sit in his
boat and open them, slowly feeling in the
shells of tho mussel for the pearl
No sooner has he found one than he can
estimate its value in every particular except
as To the color For this element he trusts
his sister. Miss Malinda Gossett.
He lives in a suburb of the town in a
house which he owns He buys many
pearls. He has bought from pearl hunters
already this year 5000 worth of pearl
and states that he will handle four times
as much before the year has closed.
Il will go 10 New York next fall, he SAYS
Il intend to buy large stock and go with
my sister ! am sure that J would find
ready market instead Of dealing with the
brokers as / do
Gossett has never married and takes no
interest in anything but his profession. He
wears a glove on his left hand constantly,
as he saws that this is his pearl hand. I"

making purchases,

SKULL THAT HOPED.
Ghost story OF Poor Esquimau VINO Came
A-Courting Toe Late.

Here's a ghost story out Of the ordinary
that wes told by the young woman 10 whom
IL happened She is a young person not
given to romancing and she says she still
has. and can produce, the corpus dehcti.
Perhaps there's a little love tragedy in
II too. because il was sad, If he really liked
the lady, that he should have met her so
late in his career,
This young woman's brother went some
where zip along the northerly coast OF Green
land on a Government expedition and when
he came back he brought his sister an
Esuuimau skull which she put on her man
tel-piece II was one of thoee mantel-
pieces with rail about a half an inch high
all aroundit.
One afternoon the girl was reading by
the window in her room when she heard a
thump and looked up just in time TO see the
skull roll half way across the room toward
her She thought II was strange that the
thing should have rolled of the mantel-
piece because of the railing but she picked
il up and put n BACK without thinking any
more about II.
A night or two later after she had been
in bed and asleep for several hours, she
was awakened by another thunp. She sat
up in bed and listened, and bump! bump!
came several more thumps, not so loud,
but just like something solid hopping across
the floor.
1t thuinped all the way from the mantel-
piece until It got under the head Of her
bed, and there IL stopped. She couldn
imagine what it was and after listening
little longer and hearing nothing else
she lay down and went 70 sleep again.
She had forgotten all about the dis
turbance in the morning and got up and
went down to breakfast without noticing
anything out Of the way.
When she came back 20 her room the
chambermaid was there with the skull
In her hand
Miss Esther, isn't it funny9' said the
maid, Here I've found this skull under
the head Of your bed.
Then the young woman remembered
the noise of the night before and the way
che thing had tumb!ed of the mantel-piece
and rolled toward her several days before.
and she thought II was strange. too. Later
in the morning she told the brother who
had given her the skull about her exper-
iences.
well, that's rather queer said the
brother. THAT skull was given TO me by
a sailor who said he wouldn't have any
thing more TO do with IL because he couldn't
keep It from hopping across his room.
The sun., 1902-03-09

Look in my drawer and you will find there
a lot Of loose papers. Among them are
some which j wish you would take and
destroy at once
Mrs. Piper was in a trance at the time
and her hand was writing. She had no
personal acquaintance with the son ana
had never seen him.
DR.. Savage went TO the room and found
in the drawer the papers referred to. They
contained things which the young man
had iotted down and entrusted to the pri-
vacy of his drawer.
The experience Of a world-famous natur-
alist is also given. He once expressed con-
tempt for all spiritual matters, but was led
to make a study OF them by some personal
experiences.
He and other people organized circle OF
sixteen persons 20 investigate. None oil
them possessed mediumistic powers at hrst,
but as they went on psychic powers OF every
description were developed within the limits
Of their own membership. The naturalist
himself became an automatic writer.
One Of the members Of the circle had a
brother who before he died had promised
70 try TO communicate with the member
after death. The scientist tried TO get In
touch with his dead brother.
Soon his hand began 20 move making az
first meaningless ecrawls, but later II strung
letters together in the form Of words AS
he looked at what had been written II
he showed the scrawls TO the brother OF
the dead man the brother said with some
surprise; ,.,.
il has for me-
He then explained that his brother had
made up certain words out of his head
He had given these 10 the speaker and had
said
III can ever come to you l will bring
these as a test. II ! do not bring them you
need not believe that II is ]"
The naturalist had produced the identi,,
cal combinations OF letters which the dead
brother years before had made as a pro-
posed test for the living one.
The last experience which DR.. Savage
gives is that OF a young English girl who
was engaged To young American. lie
died suddenly.
Some time after his death she went 70 a
medium in this city. She made no ap-
pointment and the medium had no way
Of knowing who she was
The medium went into trance and imme-
diately the girls lover seemed 70 be present.
He recalled circumstances Of their acqualn-
tace and then said:
Il am glad that / have been able 20 save
your fathers life once or twice during the
last year
A short time afterward the father wrote
home from South Africa telling how he
was sitting in his tent one day when there
came upon him suddenly an unaccount-
able impression that he was in danger.
II was as though some one were trying TO
make him feel his danger and make him
move.
So strong was the feeling that he left his
place and went over TO the other side OF
his tent. He had hardly done so before
a shell struck the chair on which he had
been sitting. Had he remained there ne
would have been killed instantly,

LODGINGS AT CLUES.
4 system with Man, Con' eniences That
y spreading Here.

Clubhouses in New York tend to be
more and more like hotels, II used 10 be
that few clubhouses had accommodate
tions for dodgers. Now almost every
clubhouse has few dodgers, and the large
new houses of the past five years have
many rooms 70 let
One club found its lodgings 80 profitable

rooms and then found 20 many members
seeking transient accommodation that
IL put out all the permanent dodgers A
club with a score Of lodgings LET TO transient
tenants may reasonably expect an income
from this source Of from 5000 to $4,000.
Club lodgings usually cost a little less
than equally good accommodations at a
comfortable hotel. At these rates members
are glad To lodge at the club whenever
they have need of temporary accommoda-
tions in town,
- club lodgings are so much In demand
the length Of time that they can be occupied
has TO be regulated. A lodger usually is
restricted To from ten DAYS 70 three or
four weeks
Clubs that let lodgings usually keep
one or more vaets whose business IL is
20 brush, clean and press the clothes Of
dodgers The rule against tipping in clubs
il usually somewhat relaxed in the case
of the valet, when lodger demands Of
him more than the usual amount of service.
Clubs that have not "a large nonresident
list find II profitable 20 let most of their
lodgings 10 permanent tenants. There are
club lodgings that have been let To the
same tenants for twenty years, and some
that are held for tenants who pass half the
wear in Europe Only the largest clubs
rent suites ot apartments TO dodgers.
II is a pretty well recognized law OF club
life that a member is not bound 10 observe

Probate Judge of Marion County was
deemed necessary. but since the an
nouncement by Chairman Campbell of the
Democratic State Campaign Committee,
that the ballot had been corrected, II is
not believed that the legal proceedings in
stituted yesterday will be continued. The
end sought by the Republicans has been
gained.
Chairman Campbell today stated that
'as far as our party is concerned. we
will have a fairly conducted election"
Late this afternoon Chairman Campbell
received a message from Chairman White
of Marion County in which 1t was stated
positively that the mistake in the ticket
was made by the printer and that the
same was corrected three days ago.
Chairman Campbell says that there has
been much ado made about nothing.
