QUAY MAY BE PROSECUTED.

Action for Soliciting Campaign Funds.
Washington, Oct 31.-There is good
ground for believing that Senator Quay
will be prosecuted for his violation Of
civil service law in allowing his name
to appear on the letter-heads of the cir
culars begging for campaign contribu-
tiOns from government employees.
Although the parties concerned will
say nothing about the matter it is I'M
derstood here that the papers in the
case either have been, or are soon to be,
turned over to the district attorney in
Philadelphia. This man Is one Holland,
protege of Quay's, whose enthusiasm
for the prosecution of his boss might

sional success in his office generally has
not been such as to win him distinction.
There are, in all these matters, many
opportunities for slips between cup and
lip, but it is assumed that the evidence
is so plain, and the attorney generate
opinions on the law so definite, that the
result of a real effort by the district at

A HEROIC REMEDY

Ireland is curious place. While one
half Of the population are clamoring for
the withdrawal of the rule of the ''ha-
ted Saxon" the other half invoke
witches. A so-called witch doctor ap-
peared in the police court at Ballygor,
County. Galway, yesterday, on the
charge of having obtained money by
false pretences. The accused was
small farmer in the district, and the
prosecutor another farmer named
Moore, who had for two months been i'll.
The accused met Moore, and told him if
he carried out his instructions he would
be as sound as rock.
AS a first instalment he demanded
about twelve shillings from Moore to
get through the preliminaries, and
when he came to the real "cure" he
said it would be necessary to have gold,
silver and copper coins. The sick man
provided sovereign, a two-shilIng
piece and penny. The witch doctor
then stripped him, wound him up in a
sheet and placed him sitting in a chair
In which were two red-hot bricks. The
poor patient underwent terrible agony,
but he bore it patiently, while the witch
doctor went on his knees and uttered
some unintelligible prayers. After the
burning the prisoner put the coins sep
arately into the sick mans mouth. He
refused to allow him to touch them with
his hand. Then he buried the coins and
told Moore he was cured, but warned
him against looking for the coins, say
ing that if any one dug the place up
they would very likely instead find a.
couple Of "dharkdiels" Gan insect credi-
ted by the ignorant and superstitious
with the powers of the evil one).
The police subsequently dug up the
ground where the coins were supposed
to have been buried, but none were
found there.-London Express.
