SNOWY HAIRED HERMIT
LIVED IN UGLY CASTLE
Abode OF Strange Man Reached by
Ladders.

CLINTON. Iowa, May 3O.-About two
miles south of Minefesia Wis, on the
east side of the Mississippi River, is
mammoth and ugly shaped castle, in
which resides an old hermit with hair as
white as the driven snow and with
beard reaching nearly 10 his waist. This
Rip Van Wrinkle is said to be more than
100 ySsrs old, and has resided in this
strange place, in one of the most queer
structures Imaginable. for more than
fifty years. When this man-and no one
knows his name or whence he came. or
even particle of his past history-set-
tied in the place, where later he built
his strange abode, there was no one near
to trespass on his solitude, and he chose
an ideal spot to live the life of hermit.
His house is called Crazy Mans Cas-
tie, and the name is no misnomef. judg-
ing from its appearance. 1t is built on
piling and is constructed of driftwood
and pieces of wrecked boats. On each
of the four corners are steeples, tower
ing far above the rude roof. The build
ing is three stories in height. the two
upper floors being reached by means OF
ladders The interior is divided into nu-
merous rooms. uniformly arranged. The
house is large enough to accommodate
two or three families. At no time of the
year is there a stove in the building, and
when the thermometer begins to hover
around the zero point the old hermit
seeks the friendly shelter of a cave,
where he made his home before he con-
structed his rude house.
That there is some deep mystery con-
nected with the life of this strange her
nit of the Mississippi no one has ans
doubt who has known him for any length
of time, although he has but little to say
and will not talk of his past life, which
has always been shrouded in mystery. 1t
is said that when he first landed in the
vicinity he was well dressed and appear
ed to be man of considerable refine
ment Immediately he isolated himself
from mankind and soon adopted the hab-
its but little above those of the aborigi-
mes and each year he has grown more
barbaric in his way.

Strange Story of Mr.. and Mrs. Gra-
ham, of Kansas.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, May 30.-Frank
Graham, miner from Mineral, Kan.
has just passed through here with his
wife, whom he was taking back to his
home. after a chase of more than a

Without saying anything to his wife
Graham boarded the rear Of the same
train and made the entire trip to the
Eastern coast without her knowing he
was along. She learned ii all when, one
day in Salisbury. he called upon her

ribbon on her left shoulder, with her in
itiaIs printed thereon. He was to wear
one on his shoulder with her initials.
She came to the depot and looked and

Graham was watching her all the
time Mrs. Graham then started to
North Carolina and he followed At
Salisbury Mrs Graham went to the post
office and got two letters, one from her
husband and one from Haase. And then
Graham made his appearance, and soon
they started back for their home in
Kansas. Mrs. Graham was willing to so.
but on the way she decided that she

Annual Encampment.

1t was stated yesterday morning that
plans for the annual encampment OF the
National Guard had been completed.
This may or may not be true, but it is
certain General Harries, who is making
the arrangements. has not given out any
information regarding the outing, nor
Will he do SO until several days before
the boys leave Washington. 1t is
rumored that the boys viii be taken
down the river to point contiguous TO
Fort Hunt on the Virginia banks of the
Potomac. Camp will probably be estab-
lished there, and on different days de-
tachments viii be sent out on practice
marches. II is said a detachment
OF marines from the Washington
Barracks and one Of troopers from
Fort Myer, as we'll as part or all Of the
Fourth Battery of field artillery, viii
accompany the guardsmen on their out
ing. The men viii probably be trans
ported TO the camp on a specially char
tered steamer, while the Fern and Onei-
da, of the District of Columbia Naval
Reserve. Will carry the officers. Al
though General Harries has not an
nounced the date on which the encamp-
ment Will begin. some persons say July

GUARDS GOOD WORK
ON RIFLE RANGE

men, who unquestionably are two of the
NEST remarkable shots that ever should
cred rifles. are products of the District
o. Columbia and the Washington citizen
soldiery. They have both. by their ex-
cellent work, won positions on the team
which goes TO England on June 13 to
LIing back the Palma Trophy, which the
Britishers captured from the Canadians
las; year. The board of judges decided
ID have the men practice at Sea Girt
from Nav 80 TO June Is, in order to get
into condition for the match which
VII be held on the BlsleX range July Il.
Washington's two representatives ar
rived at Sea Girt yesterday, and imme-
dIately started practicing with the other
candidates. The work VIII be hard from
now until June Is, but as a result Of
the preliminary work, the judges hope
10 have the strongest team Of eight men
that ever defended the red. white, and
blue banner.
The National Rifle Association Of
America has cFlarge of the team, and is
at present striving to collect $4,000 with
which TO defray the expenses of the men
who Will go over TO England. The mem
bers of the team will be carried across
the pond in royal style, wined, dined, en-
tertained, and afforded every comfort.
All this requires money. and the asso-
citation purposes to get the required
funds by popular subscription New
York has three representatives, New
Jersey has several, and the District of
Columbia has two men on the team 1t
Is purposed TO have each of the cities
contribute proportionately to their rep
resentation. It is also said that most
of the New York and New Jersey regi-
ments will contribute 500 each.
There still remain thirteen days before
the team starts on its journey across the
"briny." but Lieut.. Albert g. Jones, see
rotary of the association. has received
only $3.ooe of the $4,000 which is to
be collected, leaving 5000 10 be procur-
ed yet.
| General Harries believes that Wash
/ ington's representation calls for con-
| tribution of about $500. but that amount
is not forthcoming simply because
the general says 1t should be contribut-
ed II is suggested that the guardmen and
their friends who are interested in rife
practice, and perhaps few or a large
number OF prominent citizens Of Wash
ington, contribute a dollar or two each
and in that way raise the much-needed
funds. II has already been commented
upon that while Washington has two
men on the team and claims that five
of the men on the team are products OF
the District of Columbia, she has not
as yet made any startling noise in the
financial camp.
General Harries is a member of the
National Rifle Association and is the
Washington representative of the or
| ganizatfon He would be pleased to re
ceive any contributions. however large
or small. from all persons in Washing
ton who have taken an interest In tho

Mere Curiosity.

A well known judge, who is as fla nous for his wit as for his corpulency, was much disturbed in mind by his tendency to ever increasing stoutness.
 He tried many remedies, but without any success. At length q friend sug- gested that he should take a course of trea at certain hot springs.
 He immediately set out for the place. sOiOurned for few weeks at it. man. aged to get rid of good deal of his superfluous flesh and returned home in most happy and jocular frame of mind.
 On the first morning after his return. when he was vending his way to the courthouse. he came to the butchers shop where his family were supplied with meat. Marching inside, he said:
 "Cut me off twenty pounds of pork"
 The butcher sharpened his knife and at once complied. The judge looked at the meat for minute or two and then walked off.
 "Shall send the pork to your house"' inquired the butcher, who felt that the judge had overlooked instruc- tions.
 "Oh, mo-" was the reply, given with a smile; 'T don't want it. I have fallen off just twenty pounds. and I only wanted to have an idea of how much 1t was."-St. Louis Republic.

Greatest World Power.

An idea is the greatest power in the world. Ideas have moved armies, made nations and created civilizations. Just as surely ideas tangibly affect our immediate material surroundings. The recognition of this truth is destined to revolutionize philosophies within the next few generations. It's farreaching results will constitute the revelation of the twentieth century, says Vim.
 One in Bethlehem of JudRa enunci- ated the truth many years ago when he taught what faith would accom- plish. We of succeeding centuries re- iterated the divine message as the merest platitude, utterly failing to con- prehend it's greater meaning. Now we find ourselves on the verge of an awak- ening to the true significance of thought force.
 This much we already knOw-that it is a mystery lowering on the border land between the material and the spiritual, to be approached with the reverent investigation which the in- spired man of science always brings to bear on the wonders of the universe.
