12 DARWINISM DEVELOPED. |; The Development Theory Tested | in Wyoming County. A’ FAMILY LIVING AS SAVAGES. ——— A Brother and Sister Who Naked in the Forest Ran. A LESSON TO HUMANITY. Prrrstox, Pa, Feb, 9, 1876, For two years the authorities of the neighboring eounty of Wyoming, in this State, have been in a dilemma over a case that probably has no parallel in Jurisprudence, and certainly none in morals, and bave at last been relieved from responsibility in the matter by the decision of a Court of lenatico inquirendo. Tho. caso was that of William Parke, the “wild mute of Monroe township,” who, 1m conjunction with bis sis- ter, Melvina, also a “wild mute,” murdered a child which was born to the latter, and to which crime William subsequently added that of the murder of the sister and attempted murder of his father, Thomas Wells Parke. The facts in this unparalleled family history, as gleaned from official sources, are as fol- Jows. Their recital must awaken sensations of horror %m the orthodex reader, but the believer in the theory of Darwin may find in them cause for gratalation and encouragement :— Early in the fall of 1871. party of gentlemen were Bunting mm the mountains in the southern part of Wyoming county. Tne section is wild and sparsely populated, there being no villages within several miles, and only occasional clearings. While traversing the very deepest portion of tbis wilderness sone of | the bunting party was startled to sce a girl, entirely caked, jump from a clump of bushes near him and run with groat épocd, on'all fours, of into the woods and disappear. The hunter saw the strange being but a moment, and curious to learn something more in re- “gard to her if possible, he called to a companion who wasnear, and relating to him what he bad seen the two started in the direction the wild girl had taken, After proceeding about a quarter of a mile they came toa small clearing in the woods—a space covering few acres—in the centre of which was a miseravle barn-like hut. Near the door of this hovel stood not only the nude girl whose appearance in the woods had startled the hunter, but another naked being, tn the person of a boy nearly grown. The two, as the hunters approached the but and were discovered, ran swifuy ‘away to the woods, both uttering wild, harsh cries, as of terror. The two hunters looked in at the door ofthe hut A man was crouching down on the grouud—there was no floor—apparently cooking something in a fire, which was built ina hole dug In the ground. He arose at nce and came to the door, He was aman about fifty years of age, thin and wiry. Long, matted hair, nearly white, covered his head and face; his clothing was scant and ragged, and his bands and face had evidently been long unwashed, To his inquiry as to what the visitors wanted, they made known what bad drawn them thither, and asked him if he koew anything about the strange creatures they bad seen. The man answered, with a laugh— “Why, they’re my children, William and Melvina.”’ The man was very loquacious, and the hunters entered bis hut at bis invitation, and, without much in- quiry on their part, the following extraordinary family story was elicited from him:— A STRANGE PAMILY HISTORY. His name, he said, was Thomas Wells Parke. He was born in the township of Exeter, Luzerne county, in 1820, where he lived until be was fifteen years old, Since that time he had lived in the hut in the wilder- hess of Wyoming county. His father and mother both died there, and Parke buried them in the woods with his own hands. For twenty years therea‘ter he lived with his wife in the hut, baving married at twenty-six & woman named Mary Scarles, a sickly woman of twenty, subject to 5) ous, ist Insanity, She lived with NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1876—QUADRUPLE SHEET. rke had not been able to take care of his potatoes | tara and what he had left were frozen and rotted, Bull and Melvina at once resumed their wild life, aud all they bad to eat was the bark of trees and roow they could find under the snow, Parke made bis wants known to the community and occasional aid was sent to him; but, most mungularly, no move was taken to deal permanently with and bis children, objects of charity, certainly, if ever there were such in the world, Im this way they dragged through the winter, so nearly famished were the ‘‘mutes’” when spring opened that as the weather grew warm they seized on hzards and snakes, as they appeared on the edge of swamp bear the house, and devoured them adive. Parke avows this to bea fact himself, and others saw the horrid sight on one occasion. The children bad grown extremely violent since their return home. The boy, espectally, was ungovernable, and both his sister and father were subjects of bis The revolting diet just mentioned seemed to tucrease the brutish- hess Of their natures and they fought furiously every day. Theacme of horror was reached, however, when one ight in May (he girl gave birth to a child in the but ke, hearing its cries, took charge of it, The paternity of the child Parke attrivuted to one of the men who took the family away to exhibit, but admits robability of the girl’s brother being its father. sean ‘as it may, Parke took care of it until it was @ ome old, when one of the frequent furious outbreaks of his children took place, He was compelled to leave the but, and they tore the infant to pieces! He after- ward buried the remains, but believes that the mutes exbumed and devoured them, MURDER OF THR GIRL. A fow days afterward the boy stabbed Melvina in the ‘stomach with an old rusty case knife he found in the hut, and also cut her fearfully in other places. She escaped into the woods, and was found by her father dead ina pool of blood. He carried the body away to a remote place and buried it. SENT TO AN INSANE ASYLUM. The remaining “mute” now daily made deadly as- sauits on bis fasher, and finally the latter went to Tunkbannook, the county seat, and entered formal complaint nst bis son as a marderer and attempted murderer, ith great diffculty he was secured by officers, and was lodged in jail in Tunkhavnock. Et- forts were made to ciothe him, but he tore to threads everything placed upon his person. He was kept in jail for some months and then released, the authorities deing at loss to know what to do with him, He took at once to the woods, and up toa few weeks since roamed about as of old. He seems not to have dis- turbed his father until recently, when he attacked him and inflicted wounds that it was thought must prove fatal. He recovered, however, and his son was hunted through the woods and finally captured, He has been confined ig the insane asylum at Danville, where he will probably remain the rest of his days, and to which institution, or a similar ono, his father, it is said, will eventually follow, as be is considered as becoming hopelessly insane.

Neither of the children had ever spoken an intelligible word. They climbed the bighest trees with ease and no sign of fear, and lived in the summer and fall on nuts, roots, berries, &c.,and the father had reason to know that they hunted ground moles, feld mice and other animals, which they caught, killed andate raw. Long accus- tomed to digging for roots and hunting nuts, they had acquired the spat of waiking on all fours, and ram with great speed in that position, although they were equally agile and fleet op foot alone. WINTER EMPLOYMENTS, In the winter these beings—b .yet with all the Insunets of the brate creation—sbared the daily meal” Of their father, which consisted entirely o! potatoes and other vegetables, which he raised on bis “farm.” Bat ot the deepest snow nor coldest weather could force them to remain in the house, and they roamed the woods, eating whatever they could find, and digging with un- erring instinct down through the snow for hiaden roots. The girl was mere yontaresome than the boy, and frequently remained days and nights in the woods the most ‘rigorous weather. The boy had been eamed William and the girl Melvina AN INTERVIEW WITH THE CHILDREN, While Parke was relating the story of his wild chil- @ren they had both returned cautiously from the woods, and at firss pecred stealthily in the hut door; but Gnally growing bolder, they stepped in, all the time utiering the strangest cries and apparently talk- ing to one snotber ina bars gibverisb. By alternate coaxing and threats the father of the ‘mutes’ pre- vailed on them to approach the hunters. There was a strong resembiance between the (wo. Their faces were sharp and pinched, and had an old, worn expression, The cheek bones were high, mouths large, noses prom. ipent afd foreheads receding. The eyes were small aud restless, but, bright and piercing. The same seimi- idiotic smile characterized both countenances, and broke not ifrequently into a harsh laugh. The head of each was small for the body, and was covered with fan abundance of jong partway white bair, matted with burrs and twigs. The girl was of perfect physical devel- opment, save that ber legs from the knees down wero somewhat distorted, as were the boy's. This was caused, their father aid, by a Way they nad of sitting on tbe ground with their tegs bent up under them in s peculiar manner.

The was not satisfactory in regard to the ensemble, Titiens was the samo grand representative of the heroine as she proved herself to be at the first performance of this well worn opera Tagiiapietra won popular favor by his simging, and pearly neutralized the same by his acting. Brignoli sang the familiar numbers of ‘the title role commend- ably, but his acting was anything but agreeable, and Miss Beaumont again showed her utter meapacity to fulfil the requirements of a role 80 exacting as that of Azucena. The chorus and orchestra, under Maretwek's direction, were all that might be desired. GRAND OPERA HOUSE. iss Lucille Western, who may be termed, in tho truest sense of the word, a time-honored artist, ap- Peared last night at the Grand Opera House, before a large audience, in her very best part—Nancy Sykes, in “Oliver Twist.” The house on Eighth avenue origt- nally built for Italian opera has long ago proved such a failure for any kind of amasement that there is a degree of interest to-day con- nected with any one bold enough to undertake Ita management, Miss Western made a bold venture, and, judging from the performance last night, she has succeeded in drawing around her an excellent company. Her Nancy Sykes 1s a perfect, althongh necessarily a repulsive, characterization of one of the saddest episodes m Dickens’ works She bas toned it down consider. ably and considerately, and there is little now left of the former blood-curdlii representaticn with which New York theatre-goers are so familiar, Yet dramatic has been benefited by the change. Mr, Studley was an admirable representative of the brutal Sykes and Mr, Wallace played Fagin to perfection, ex- cepting only that at ‘gnee He dropped the whine of the thief manufacturer for the tragedian, The rest of the cast does not cail for special comment, The play was Et on the stage admirably. “Miss Western appears om onday evening in ‘East Lynne.” CHICKERING HALL, ‘The New York String Quartet, consisting of the fol- lowing eminent artists—Edward Mollenhaner, Max Schwarz, George Matzka and Frederick Bergner—gave tong The programme wes &@ follows:—1, Pri, for piano, yiolig and feelers.

A play with a thoroughly American flavor has not been produced at this theatre— the home of comedy—for a long while, and it is there fore the more gratifying to know that Mr. Wallack will play a double role, one of decided difficulty, tmd that the entire cempany, including Miss Effie Germon, who’ returns, will appear in the cast.
