HICKMAN ROOTsSAYS. MYSTERIOUS SEGUR. WOMAN WAS DRUNK

zdry Root, the hackdriver for Hickey Bros, arrested with Mrs.
 Theresa Segur, before daylight Tues
 day morning, after Mrs. Segur's cries had aroused the residents in the vicinity of the East End barns, to-
 day made a statement in which he shed further light on the strange events preceding the arrests. f4 I@ Root says his only mistake was taking the woman out in the hack in f the first place. She was intoxicated
 and boisterous, he says, when they left the ables. When they reached Avon park he became dubious over his
 chances for getting paid, and he ask
 ed the woman for her fare. She said
 she wouldn't pay, and turned to Zephyr Mennier, the nightwatchman accompanying. her. Mennier declar-
 ed he wouldn't pay. Then he started homeward.
 The woman had no occasion to
 make any such outcry a sshe did near
 the East End barns, for he made no
 attempt to rob her. Root says he
 has suffered greatly in reputation through his arrest and detention. He says further than he is ready to prove
 his statement that his mysterious passenger was badly intoxicated by
 the statements of saloon keeper and
 others who elected the woman from a neighboring saloon before she came into the stables.

STRANGER THAN FICTION.
Tha Way the Captain of q Slave

The Way the Captain of q Slave
 Trader. Was Convicted.
 Romance writers are often blamed for making the plots of their stories turn upon slight chances and improba- ble Incidents, but here is an incident in real life stranger than fiction.
 In 17o0 the cutter Sparrow brought the brig Nancy into harbor at Kings ton, Jamaica, under suspicion that she was engaged in the slave trade. But, although many circumstances pointed to this fact, no clear proof could be obtained, as the brig had no papers from which the charge could be sub stant4ated. The suspected vessel was therefore discharged, but the day be war arrived, bringing some documents that clearly proved her guilt.
 These papers had been obtained in a highly Improbable manner" While cruising of the coast of Santo Domin- amused themselves by fishing for sharks. One monster was captured and cut mp on deck, and in its stom- ach was found bundle of ships papers, the very documents flung over board by the captain of the Nancy when he was boarded by the Sparrow.
 Curiosity led the captain of the man. of-war to clean and examine the papers, and the result was that he brought them before the authorities at the nearest port The unlucky brig was condemned on this ronaant1ca1ly acquired evidence. = St. Paul Pioneer Press.

VAGARlEs OF WEIGHT.

How Can a Pound of Food Make One Three Pounds Heavier? Here are two personal experiences of my own that are equally striking. After having put on rather too much weight, probably through excess and other mistakes of food and drink, played 8. severe tennis match and lost seven pounds in weight Then I took glass of wine and at once by this put on two pounds. Then I took a meal slightly larger than usual and put on another two and half pounds, though the meal itself weighed only one pound.
 On another occasion when I had lasted for day or two and had natu- rally lost two or three pounds a day ate meal weighing about one pound and went up in weight not one pound, but three pounds.
 How can only one pound in food add three pounds in weight?
 How, in the case of other people, can three pounds-a day's food and drink-add nothing at all?
 In my own case one principle ap- pears, and this is that my nature is at any rate rapid in getting toward the normal, but comparatively slow in get ting far below or far above the nor mal
 A not uncommon but very striking phenomenon is that of the shampooer fin a Turkish bath in London. He finds that after his days work, which in wolves copious sweating and hard physical exercise and scarcely any thing to eat or drink, he goes up fin weight some two or three pounds mere ly by resting.-Eustace Miles in Netro- polit1n Magazine.

WashfnEton, April 22.-In the mid aIe of a speech on the Administration Senator Cuninins of Iowa, one of the leading insurgents stopped, and, de- uberateIy addressing himself to his Republican coneagueg. told them s111 their party. Briefly his argument was that the people were coming to believe that Congress paid more heed to the wishes of the interests than to those of the people. It was the most sweeping arrafgnment of Re- pubIicanism of today that has come So far from within or without the party, and it lAft4his associates dumb founded. Nd ply whatever was made to MT. nmins, and it was evident that h ssau1t left the Sen ate 1eaders in pleasant frame of what MT. Cunamins said can be taken ass the, expression of the feel ing that has been growing among the insurgents since they received the Joyful news of the retirement of Sen ators A1drich and Hale. A marked r.Iaange has come over their bearing that has been noticeable in every coIIoQuy on the floor in which they took part against regular. A note of defiance has crept into MT. Cum xIafns' usually suave rejo1nderss and yesterday, in contrast to his almost unvarying custom, he refused to have his remarks interrupted even by MT. tAIdrich.
 MT. Cummins was speaking on his amendment to give authority to the Interstate Commerce Commission to pass upon all rates agreed upon by Railroads before they should go into effect. He declared that the present provision of the bill would repeal the antf-trust law against railroad agree meuts, and asserted that the Senator who would be willing to repeal the anti-trust law. without providing an sRdequate, remedy in it's place would not meet the approval of the Re publicans of the country

Washington, April 22.-No attempt was made today to make political capital out of the decreased cost of food, recorded in United Press des- patches from cities throughout the country. Senators who are investi- gating the Thigh cost of living say they believe that the reductions are mainly the result Of natural causes unaffected by the tariff or any other legislation. !

clared he met Representative Robert E.
Wilson and received 500 Jackpot money
from him. Wilson is now under indictment
for perjury. Subpoena servers are looking
for him, but have failed to find him.

dnced a register Of the Southern hotel,
