 The explanation Is that, American cxti. zens are being humbugged by this .Esoteric. insanity. A washinston daaly newspapers. it l. true, but daily that some how lives in the national capital-- is swing currency to the utterly prepos- terous pretensions of the "Dr. A. de may spread amongst the ignorant throughout the country. This ridiculous Washington newspaper today contains a story to the effect that "Dr. Albert ds o 'Sa Ss So q .s s. sion of the Washington Esoteric Cente. last night at 14l3 Corcoran Street, only members of the Esoteric Society being entitled to admission.

 TILLMANIAN TROUBLES.
 No more crazy than the followers of Martyr" de Sarak is the rich South Carolinian, one George M. Lindsay, who has been this week taken up and held here as lunatic. You know Washing ton Is the Mecca Of crazy persons, and tho popular impression that all of this ar lva Ap nd . erroneous.
 MT. Lindsay of South Carolina, who isn't half as crazy as Senator Wllman. and who could not be in a year as minutes, was arrested because he ap- peared to be insane, while Tihman is suffered to pursue his dangerous way unmolested. Still Lindsay wrote poetry, been charged against the pitchforker from State that was in the dead past repre- scented In the Senate by it's Calhouns, It's Hayneses and it's McDuffies. Lindsay wrote: -s-- Thou art but a faded flower. Found within my lady's bower:
 Stepped upon by her dear feet,
 Now l know thou art sweet"
 That's worse than Tillman. And this Lindssyaan exotic: E. "oh, Caroline, my Caroline
 As unSthy dressF1 spill my wine.
 The thought consolatory comes
 That we are but pair of bums."
 How tender is all of this, how exquisite ly soulful. after all of its horrible days of Tillmanism. noble old South Carolina still lifts its once proud head, cen it be in a madhouse. That State has been for so many years politically mad 1t is no little wonder that all of it's more self respecting people have not lied to the insane asylum for protection.
