on about her.
AS she tells it now she was conscious
much of the time but when everything
was quiet her mind would wander All
of the time she was helpless and unable
to make a sign
During ner sleep she had many wonder
full dreams.
The history of the case goes back sew
eral years. She had an aunt. according 10
reports who was the victim of a long
sleep and never fully recovered her men
tai strength. The girls father had an at
tack of yellow fever in his soldier days
and his nerves have never recovered en-
tirely.
Two years ago the girl quarreled with
her sweetheart. The next morning she
was found in a wood, lying by a log. al
most frozen. and in a sleep similar to the
recent one Drs- Laswen of Alma and
Murffn of Patoka treated her and brought
her out after almost week. This last
time she quarreled with her sweetheart
on the Saturday before she went to sleep.

JANICE MEREDITH HOUSE.
Romantic Story Investigated to Death
by a Matter-oz-Fact Jersey1nan

New Brunswick, Oct. 2:.-Soon after
Paul Leicester Ford wrote Janice
Meredith" some of the scenes of which
are laid near New BrunsNick and the
Eaiitan river, there was a hunt among
the curious to establish an old Colonial
mansion which the author described as
baing the heme of the heroine and at
one time a Headquarters for George
Washington After a pretty thorough
canvass of all the mansions which
might be called eligible between here
ard Pound Frcok. the opinion of those
int rested seemed to center upon
Fopss three miles from this city which
has belonged to the Wells family for
geneI atians-
Lawrence Wells of New York city
bought the supposed Janice Meredith
home from his uncle recently and an
n0Ircca that he was going to spend
S5e.0o0 10 $4,000 in irnfs5uving it. He
brought an architect with him from
New YORK within a few weeks to carry
out his plans.
\ gentleman who is a stickler for lit
e.aTV authenticity wrote to Paul I4eices-
tor Ford shortly before he was killed

J8rice Meredith house, inquiring par
ticula1ly if it was the Wells mansion
NJ. Ford replied that no particular
structure could be pointed out az the
ABODE cf his heroine, as he had never
had one in mind.
Only today was this pretty story ex-
ploded by the gentleman who had re-
ceived the letter from Mr. Ford. Wheth-
er Lawrence Wells took any stock in the
Janice Mel edith tale is not known.

ends a remarkable case of hysteria-
The girl went to sleep at p. m. on Sun
day, September %. and was not reused out
of what appeared to be a sound slumber
until Wednesday, October S. Then for
days her mind seemed to be in the balance
as to whether to return to its normal
condition or not
During the entire time of her sleep her
pulse and respiration were normal The
pupils of her eyes retained their normal
condition.
What puzzled the physicians was her

an end. Ammonia fumes, ice applied To

give signs of knowing what was being

Prosperous Stockmen.

Special from Helena, Mont, says
The cattlemen and horsemen OF Mon
tana are now looking back on pros
porous year, if the annual report OF
the state live stock commission is
any indication of the years con-
ditions. The inspection reports for
the year shcw a total Of 81 arrests
for violation Of stock laws, the re-
suits of which were 81 convictions.
Twenty cases r still pending and
eight others jumped their bonds
Among the arrests were some very
important ones and considerable
has been accomplished in breaking
up notorious gangs Of rustlers which
had been operating successfully for
many years and as successfully
GLIDING the officers. The number Of
arrests of horse thieves was greater
than in any preceding year, which
is accounted for, possibly, in the in
creased value of horses. In com
pliance with the statute which pro-
vides for the payment for cattle
killed on railroads, there were 467
hides inspected and the roads have
been prompt in paying for the ami.
mails.
The work OF the inspection system
was most satisfactory. The total
number OF cattle shipped from the
state shows a decrease of about q
per cent from the previous years
shipments, there having been,a tota
of $1,000 head shipped during the
year. Including the supply used a
home and at the Indian agencies
within the state, the total beef out
put for 1901 was 1890 head, a ne
decrease Of 20 per cent. Of tn
total number inspected, there wer
5,843 strays. It . estimated tina
rs, 200 head of cattle on the Stoke
order were brought into the stat
and turned in on the ranges, {
which 376 were fine breeding stock.
The financial report shows a ba
ance in fund on January l, 1901, {

Cattle On Reserves.

Opposition is manifested by the
South Dakota delegation to the new
leasing regulations governing the
grazing of cattle on the Indian res
ervationS in thist state. Indian
Commissioner Jones has just called
for bids on several thousand acres of
grazing lands in the reservations
comprising the Cheyenne river and
Stand Rock agencies. 1t is propos-
ed to let land at about 4 cents per
acre, or as much as may be offered.
Representative Burk said that the
leasing of property is prejudicial to
the development and interests of his
state. He said that under the reg
ulations it would be possible for a
large company to secure permits for
all the lands to the exclusion Of the
small stockmen in the state. An
other objection urged by Mr.. Burke
is that there is no restriction as to
the number Of cattle that may be
grazed on Indian lands. Mr.. Burke
says that the policy OF permitting
long time leases would defer the
making Of allotments and opening tic
settlement Of lands included in the
South Dakota reservations. Mr..
Burke intimates that a formal pro
test will be filed with the commits
sioner of Indian affairs against the
leasing regulations about to be put
into force in Sonth Dakota.
A bill has been introduced by
Senator Gamble providing for th'
ratification Of a treaty with tn,
, lower Brule Indians, ceding to tn,
government about $4,000 acres o
; land in South Dakota. The bill ap
! propriates SO, 900 for the purchas
: of the land, a par6 Of which is to D
y used in the construction Of a fenc
; around the diminished portion OF tn
Lower Brule reservation. Wha
I remains after this expenditure is
. be utilized in purchasing stock fo
the Indians.
