HYPNoTIsM IN COURT.
Wallen Children Arrayed Against
Stepmother in Virginia.

RICHMOND. Va, November 15.-The
fight at law between the children of the
late William Wallen and his widow, Mrs
Alice Wallen. for possession of the es-
tate, which is valued at SD.Ooo, was re-
sumed in the chancery court yesterday.
This is the second trial of the suit insti-
tuted bv the Wallen children for the pur-
nose of breaking their fathers will.
The old marbecutter left his estate to
his widow, who is his second wife. The
children of the first wife base their con-
test on the plea that their stepmother eX-
ercised a sort of hypnotic power over their
father. by eXerting which weird influence
she induced him to dsnherit them.
The original suit was decided in favor
of the widow. The case was taken to the
supreme court. by which tribunal 1t was
ordered back to the chancery court for
retrial. The proceedings now Will be the
same as if ii had never been tried in
court. The contestants will offer certain
new evidence, which they believe will
materially strengthen their cause.

FOUND NOAH'S DIARY
MIGHT HAVE DUG UP MEMOIRS
OF EYES GRANDMOTHER,

CHICAGO, November ia dispatch
to the Tribune from Detroit, Mich, says
An alleged copy ot Noah's diary. en-
graved upon a copper tablet dug up in
Michigan and offered for sale to a Wis
consin collector has resulted in uncover
ing one of the cIeverest relic swirdes of
recent years. A former secretary of state
is claimed to be implicated in the affair.
and with him are a university museum
curator and other Michigan men.
Michigan copper formed the basis of the
enterprise, which consisted in manufac-
turing ancient relics out of copper, paint
ing. them green to represent verdigris,
dipping them in corrosive acid and bury
ing them in mounds. after which they
were dug up by relic-hunting expedi-
tions under the leadership of the pro
mOters.
Antiquities to Order.
The affidavits of prom nent citizens that
they had seen the r lies dug out of the
ground We're sufficient to secure their sale
to credulous collectors. no one dreaming
only eleven months before. Indian cop
per implements, battle axes of leaf cop
per well-tempered srearheads and other
supposed rare and ancienty corroded rel
les that have been treasured in Michi-
gan and outside museums are declared
10 be bogus. with the result that all co.
lections of the sort are thrown under
more or less suspicion.
AS finishing touch 70 "A gigantic swim
die the reic manufacturers branched off
from Indian relics. They went so far
as to dig up in the presence of reputable
witnesses bronze tablets inscribed with
hieroglyphics and symbols of the biblical
deluge and the tower of Babel
The diary of Noah was offered to n
wealthy man of Wisconsin, WHO asked
the advice of a museum curator as to
accepting It, This man had had consid-
cradle experience with fakes, and warned
the relic patron to beware. Whether the
re,ic finally was sold cannot be learned
