A Winter Night's Tragedy 'in 2 Haunted House—The Hideous Dissecting Room — The Corpse Coms to Life Under the Torture of the Knife. (From the Ohio State Journsl.) One cold night in December, 1852, three young medical students met for a purpose in a third story, back room, of an unoccupied brick dwell- ing house, located on Market street, Louisville, Ky. The building hed been vacated for nearly a year, and had the reputation of being haunt- ed. What gave rise to that evil re- port will appear in tne course of this narrative. The students were in the year of their studies that bring them their longed for diplomas, and as they sat in this room drinking from a bowl of hot punch that had been carefully prepared by one of their number, they canvassed the many eventful incidents of their course at college, and speculated upon what the future had in store for them. The castles they built in the air were of the most brilliant description, and A KNOCK AT THE STREET DOOR that brought forth an_echo from cellar to garret of the dismal, cob- web-lined building that failed to draw their attention. It was repeated, and with a joyful ery of “There’s Limpy Jack,” ac- companied by a step on the hall that emphasizec the remark, one of their number called his comrades’ attention to the circumstance. They appeared to know the signal and to anticipate no further repetition, as they hurriedly left the room and went down stairs, one of the trio leading the way with a lighted can- dle in his hand. Ou reaching the ground floor they did not go to the front door, but with one accord passed into what had once been the dining-room of the families who had occupied the house. Here they found a door that led to the cellar. Opening this door they descended in the same order. The cellar was damp and noisome, and was a place only fit now as a habitation for the vermin that swarmed 1t. Picking their way cautioasly, stepping from plank to plank of the loose flooring that covered the earth, and causing muddy water to ooze above the boards at every step, they at last reached an object that appeared to be nothing more than a sack of po- tatoes. Upon lifting the sack, how- over, the head avd shoulders of A HUMAN SKELETON emerged from it, and fell to the ground. Reversing the sack in- stantly, in which operation his com- rades assisted, the man who held it seized the mouth and drew it to- gether, after which -he threw the canvass over his shoulder, and fol- lowed in the wake of the man with the tallow dip, while the third man of the party came last, and steadied the gastly burden upon the shoulders of his leboring compauions. In this order, and without a word, the party carefuliy traversed the cellar, and ascended the steps leading to the deserted dining-room. Here they halted to readjust the load that weighed heavily upon the man who bore it, but the journey was imme- diately renewed, and in a few mo- ments the party were back again in the comfortable room that they had left. The room was comfortable by comparison with the other depari- ments of the deserted dwelling. A warm coal fire was burning in a hearth of large dimensions, and the odor of the punch was very agreea- ble to the senses. But whatever comfort & non-professional man would have derived from spending a portion of a gloomy winter's night in such a room, the feeling would have speedily changed to one of hor- ror upon beholdiog the surround- ings. The room was filled on three sid=s with glass cases, some con- taining from three to six tiers of shelving, and others being free of obstruction in the space from top to bottom. There were eighteen of these cases. Each of these with shelves in them contained HUMAN SKULLS AND BONES tbat had been taken from the bodies of which they had formed a part, and there were also a large number of specimens preserved in bottles filied with aleohol. The heart, brain, liver, etc., were in this man- ner exhibited and kept in their nat- ural state. Others of these cases contained medicines and instru- ments used by medical men. The cases that were not shelved con- tained full-grown skeletons of men, women and children strung upon wires. In the ceuter of the room Wwas a table about ten feet in length, and raised about two feet off the ground. It was covered with black oil-cloth, and one end of it was raised—for the purpose of affording a resting place to the heads of oorpses laid upon this, the disseot- ing table. Upon re-entering the room the students lost little time in proceed- ing about their work. It was not a novelty by any means that they wereabout to enter upon, and yet they one and all manifested the keenest delight in the job. The sack was laid upon the table, loos- ened, and rullcd away, revealing the body of & man perhaps fifty years of age. He had been tall of tature and of great muscular de- velopment. No marks of violence 'were to be seen about the corpse as itlay stark naked upon the deathe cloth, and the face bore a pleasant expression, as if the passage from life had been accomplished without pain or vain regrot. After placing the body in a proper position, with the head upon the raised elevation, the students divested themselves of coats and hats, rolled up their shirt- sleves and fastened them above the elbow, and adjusted clean-looking cloths, reaching to their waists, about their necks. They then brought forth from under one of the glass cases & cedar-wood box about one foot in width by two feet in From this box about A DOZEN LARGE,GLEAMING INSTRU« MENTS, including knives and aaws, were produced and laid upon & chair pla- ced within reaching distance of the table. “I guess we'll find out now if old Jake Hinghaus was crazy or not ‘when he made that will,” said one of the students; to which another replied: “Yes, indeed, we will. It's no great interest to us; but if there is going tobe a fight over that ten thousand dollars of Lis, there will be some satisfaction in knowing for ourselves whether his real wife is entitled to it, e whether it should go to the children of his mistress, as he willed it. Do ycu know what the trouble was between-him and his wife?” ‘This remark being addressed to the third member of the party, he answered: I know no more than any one. ‘was a queer ol - mwould bave his tod. In fact, 'that's what killed bim, ss we all know of course. Well, it’s my oplnlnnduthhmuwunwuvery‘ recently, and the money left to his ‘o0ld gal’s’ children, because his wife was ‘given to quarreling with him about his drinking.” “Well, anyhow, we'll éatisfy our- selves to-night about that crazy story. For my part, I believe he ‘was as sane when he made his will as any of us, and I'll bet money we'll find the cause of his acting so strange the last few weeks was h’fizor on the brain, and nothing else.” These remerks from the first speaker closed the conversation, The men approached thetable. One of them, who seemed to be silently delegated.to perform the operation, held in his hand A GLITTERING KNIFE. The others caught the corpse by the shoulders and raised it to a sit- ting position. One of them held it there. The mau with the knife be- gan to cut at the base of the skull and around it. The other, placing bis fingers on the bloody opening thus formed, pushed them forward. The knifo cut clean, and in an in- stant the scalp was thrown forward upon the face, exposing the bald skull bespatered with blood. At this instant a tremor through the corvse; a second and a third succeeded ; A WILD SHRIEK followed; and with & cry of most soul-curdling agony, the supposed dead man leaped from the table. The students, affrighted to death, could ouly hurdle in & corner and gaze at theapparition. - Shriek after shrick followed, and the sufferer tore the bleeding scalp from before his eyes and gazed about hini with frothing mouth,” and looks of de- moniacal ferocity. When his eyes at last rested upon the students, he uttered a shriek wore appalling than its predecessors, and rushed upoa them. He seizud upon the one who had Leld his body in position ; with a grip of iron he clutched his fhroat, and with a giant's power bore him to the floor. It was a_question of life for the students or death for theirassailant. The man who had the knife realized thesituation upon the instant,leaned forward and plunged the knife to the hilt in the heart of the unfortu- nate wretch. With a Lorrible ery he sank down upon the body of the half strangled student, and in an instant a cold shiver that convulsed his frame, told that indeed he wasa. dead man. Now that the deed was done, the students looked at one an- other as if one and all were stupi- ged. Then, with the bloody knife above his head, the man who had committed the act called upon his companions to swear AN OATH OF ETERNAL SECRECY then afd there. With their left hands clapsed together, and their right hands on high, the three men swore eternal fidelity to each other in the great and damning secret that must forever darken their ca- reer. Thisdone, thebody was again wrapped up in a sack. A large sup- ply of combustible materials was then eoncentrated in the room and the torch applied. Ere the flames had time to spread, the guilty men were on their way homeward. The fire did its work effectually in destroying all the evidence of the crime. There were no living wit- nesses save the three participants. One of these (Alfred Burgess) was killed at the battle of Pittsburg Landing, while serving as a surgeon in the Union army; Robert Craw- ford, the man whose steady right arm had driven home that weapon of death, was killed upon an - nois railroad in'July 1869, and Or- son Holmes, the last actor in the drama, died but a few days ago in Parsons, Kansas. It Is from a little weekly ' paper, published in that place, that his confession, giying all the detailsof the horrible affair as related above was obtained. A Mule Willing to Go, [Loutsville Courler-Journa?.] A bad little boy in Portland lit a pack of shooting-crackers, and threw them into the street to see them ‘go oft.” One of Ike Bate- man’s mules came along and swal- lowed them before they ““went off.” The mule walked about fifteen feet and stopped. Things wasn’t acting right inside. He began to taste the smoke of fire-crackers. Helaid his left ear around against his ribs, and heard something. It was fhem crackers having fun. The mule picked out about three and a half miles of straight road and started. A negro met him about a mile the other side of the aims-house, going south, white with perspiration, with streams of smoke shooting out of his nostrils, mouth and ears, while his tail stuck straignt up, and a stream of blue and green smoke fol- lowed about ten feet in the rear. Tke found his mule yesterday morn. ing stuck half way through a farm. house uear Paddy's Run, still smoking. The man had got his family out and put 'em up into a lot of trees. Ike hauled his mule home, Wwhen he got cool enough, on adray. ‘The man is going to move his house further back off the road, and his wife and oldest daughter will be baptized when the water gets warm.
