SOFTY ELASTIC SECTION . | fus TO THE SPIRIT LAND. The Hashand of @ Medinm Called Away. In the Middle of Seance at Mercan- tile Library Hall, St Louls Republican, December 10, A death with very remarkable dra- matic surroundings occurred at the Mer- cantile Library hall lnst week. A Mrs. Mansfield, a spiritualistic medium, gave a seanse in the hall, and nearly 500 peo- ple were present. About 8 o'clock the performance commenced. It was the usual spiritualistic show, A cabinet was erected on the stage, and Mrs. Mansfield entered it and was tied with her hands behind her to a post. A finger ring was placed in the cabinet, and when the cur- tain was moved the ring was found on her finger. The curtain was again drawn to and when removed a second time the ring was discovered in the back of the medium’s hair. A whistle was placed on the table and sounds came from the cabinet of some one blowing on it. A bell which was placed in soon commenced ringing, and several other incidents of this kind occurred. Mrs, Mansfield took a woman from the audience in the cabinet with her once to allow her to converse with the spirit of a dead relative While the woman was in there a sister of hers in the audience fainted and had to be carrted out of the hall. She was soon revived, however, and resumed her seat. Finally, about 9:30 o'clock, the cabinet was removed from the stage by James Froderick Gean, the husband of the medium. He had been selling tickets at the box-office in the early part of the evening, and after he got through went back on the stage to help around. Mrs. Mansfield had been making some remarks regarding her performance and followed her husband into one of the dressing rooms to get something she needed. She found him lying at the door which leads from the dressing room into the hall. An assistant was immediately dispatched out after Officers Viehle and Allen, who were in the gathering. The patrolmen found Gean lying at the door and his wife bending over him, Officer Allen went out on the stage, and, without stating what the matter was, asked if there was a physician in the audience. ~ One man giving the name of F. A. Barrettrespond- od. He said he was not a practising phy- sician,but had studied medicine. Officer Viehle had also gone out at the request of Mrs, Mnnnliulti‘ to get a doctor. He soon returned with Dr. 1. A. Chancellor, No. 513 Olive street. Both Barrett and Dr. Chancellor pronounced (iean dead. Officer Allen then mounted the stage and announced thke death to the audience. Many of the people refused to believe it and pronounced it all a hoax to draw the performance to a close and defraud the out of theirmoney. Some of them trie? to break in the door of the room in which Geap and his wife were, but the police kept it barred and refused to admit any- body, It was some time before the crowd left. Chief Campbell, who had heard of the affair on the street, hurried to the hall and took charge of the body. Mrs. Mansfield re- to believe her husband dead, and thinks yet he is merely in a trance. She was taken home in a carriage by Mrs, Cahill. Gean’s body was removed to the morgue in the Chesnut street patrol wagon. His cash box was opened, and the money counted in the St. Louis tias company’s office by Chief Campbell, It was found to contain $195.50. snlmo' mindin' wy business, and | [} ’Gun was b i{un of age, and a native ol New York, He was a very floshyman, and is supposed to have died of apoplexy. e had W ropident of Chicago for me ti t 'Monday he arvived wife and was complaining I ok, was & membor 0?!

A QUEER MARRIAGE, A Brooklyn Young Man Forced to Marry a Girl by Her Uucle, Only 10 be Divorced by the Court. Special to the Cincinnati Commercial Gazetto, New Yorg, December 5.--Minnie F. Dawley sued her husband, Chas, . Daw- ley, in the supreme court, Brooklyn, for absolute divorce, alleging that she was forced to marry him by her uncle, Lionel Brown, a real estate broker of Fulton street. The facts in the case are of a sensational character. Dawley, who is a oung man, a little over 21 years of age, ived opposite to the plaintif. A flirta- tion sprung up between them. Dawley, as alleged, received some very encour- aging letters from the plaintiff, and the result was that he called upon her. One evening while they were sitting in the parlor the uncle entered, and as al- leged, drawing a pistol, informed Dawley that his day had come if he did not get down on his knees and swear that he would marry the young lady he was woo- ing, Dawley pleaded that he had visited the house merely as a neighbor, but his pleadings were of no avail, and the result was that he was comdelled to take an oath that he would wed the lady. The marriage took place the next day, the uncle furnishing the whole outfit. After the coremony Dawley left thenewly-wed- ded wife at her uncfix'n house and imme- diately went home. The next day he re- cieved a threatening letter, as alleged, from the uncle, notifying him that he mus come to the house immediately to see his wife and provide for her support. Dawley paid no attention to the Rttcr, and the result]was that he had not seen his wife until the suit was brought. The plaintift, who is scarcely nineteen years of age, and who is well known in the society of Brooklyn, appeared before the referee and corrobrated the story as told by Dawley. She said she would not have married Dawley had it not been for her uncle. Dawley putin no defense. This morning Colonel Johnson filed his report, with the supreme court, He finds that the marriage was null and void, and that judgement should be entered accord- ingly. prio Suciasa t MUY Lost Faith in Physicians, Why is it that 5o many persons use proprie- tary medicines, or patent medicines, as they are commonly called?

The Professor in a Museum Exercises His Memory and His Imagi- nation, Chicago Trivune, 8o you want to know something about snake bites,” said Prof. Worth, at the North Side museum, in answer to a (jues- tion of a reporter for The Tribune., ‘I was bitten by a snake,” continued the collector of curiosities, ‘‘and had a most remarkable escape from death., A snake bit me on the thumb you see, andjit had to be amputated to save my life,” and here he showed a very short stump of thumb on the left hand. *‘How did it happen?” “‘I was feeding the snakes with raw beef, as 1 had no birds or mice. There were sixty of them in the case, from two to six feet long. 1 had no stick in my hand—an unusual oversight with me— and had to push back any that tried to got out with my hand, Suddenly three of them made an attempt to escape in as many different directions. Thinking to lrifihtun them back I stamped, shouted, and struck at them with my hand. 'I'wo dropped back, but one of them stood his grouud and raised his head toward me- he was a rattlo-snake. I made a quick 8 at him, but he was quicker and urried his fangs in my tluun{:. 1 shook him back in the case, closed the lid, and, sucking my injured finger, hurried for the door and sent a policeman after an ambulance and a friend for whisky, 1 drank a quart of whisky and was uncon- scions in twenty minutes- The doetors took it for a case of alcoholism and pump- ed the whisky out of me, or I would never have lost my thumb. They had never had a rattlesnake bite to deal with and didn't know what to do, but the next time I got rattlesunke poison in me I treated it myself.” o you been bitten since" *No,but I havea fang that oneof them had shed into my thumb a few months ago. That was the first time I knew of rattlesnakes shedding their poison-fangs. 1 was cleaning out the case and some- thing scratched my thumb through the sponge. 1 toek it for a sliver at first,but when I came te look at it I found it wasa fang. I knew L was poisoned again,” *‘What did you do theni” ‘‘Why, 1 used ratdesnake violet, of which I made an infusion, and it quickly eured me. 1 was in the hospital three months the first tinke,and lost my thumb, The other is as good as ever, you see.” “‘Do you know of any other cases!” was ““¥es, Mr. Wallack, an actor, was bit ten ou the leg by a rattlesnake in this state years ago. He buried the leg in carth for twenty-four hours, and the gravity of the earth drew the poison and cured him, but every year within a day or two, or exactly upon the day on whiu{x he was Ditten, his leg turns spotted like the snake. A farmer in Tennessee, another acquaintance of mine, was bitten - one of (Len cotton-mouth moccasins. o latter ate nasty snakes; they throw ! out froth,and whenever this froth touches the skin it poisons, He made a tea of rattlosnake root, imbibed freely of whisky, and was cured, but every year the foot that was bitten turns the same color as the cotton-mouth moccasin.” I know of another man who lives in the snake regions of New York state who was bitten by a rattlesnake. He made a tea of rattlesnake violet, applied a_salve made of lion root, and cured himself. He was bitten on the ankle, and every year, same as the others, his leg becomes spotted like the snake. Another man whom I know was bitten on the leg by a rattlesnake while in the mountains, three miles away from any house. He made the best time he could to the nearest farm, but the limb was frightfully swoll en by that time, The woman there seemed to be considerably versed in rat- tlesnake bites, She ran out in the yard, caught a chicken, split it in two, and ap pliedit to the wound. It absorbed the poison very fast, turning green. Then she threw it away and applied another in the same manner until she had unsed 21 chickens and effected a complete cur This man’s leg, too, gets spotted yearly.” “‘Is this chicken cure common?” “Yes, but generally a much smaller number is suflicient. The case T spoke of was a bad one. re there any other cures!” “Yes. A madstone is a good thing. {I have in my collection, It cures rattle- snake and mad-dog bites, and is porous like pumice-stone. When you want to use it dip it in milk or tepid water to open the pores. Then you scarify the wound to make it bleed and apply the stone. It sticks like a leech for perhaps an hour, absorbing the poison till every pore is full, and then drops off. You clean it by dipping it in_the milk again, and keep on applying it until the poison is under control, but in case of a mad-dog bite it must be applied within the first five days, before the spasms set in, because after that the blood is so vitiated that the stone can’t absorb the poison quick enough to save life. These madstones are not be- lieved in up here, because people don't know anything about them. Down south, however, where they are known they are greatly used.” In digging the foundation for the new court house at Las Vegas tho laborers, old miners, saw symptoms of ** pay dirt.” They at once gave it trial, which resulted in striking it rich in geld.

A young man who was in the crowd at an up-town jeweler’s yesterday attracted a great deal of attention. His coat was of country cut and well worn, his trousers were baggy, and his shoes were of a de- sign new to New York. They were made of grain leather. Yet he worea high hat of the most fashionable shape and glossy exterior, and two clerks were piling up jewels on the show case before him. ““I'll tell you how it is,” said he; “I'm from Pittsburg, and I've come into a lit- tle money after working hard all my life. I've always said that I'd like to dress up first class from head to toe, though I real- ly never expected to be able to. Butnow I've got quite a sum of money, and I'm going to go home in as good shape as any man in Pennsylvania. ~What'll be the price of the best umbrella?”’ “Well,” said the clerk, ‘“‘we've got them at from $5 to $76—the gold-headed ones are $75. N e 1) ““Cracky!” said the young man, “I'll have to change m; tune¥ guess. Idon’t want to be a foo{ A silver-headed um- brella will do, and $20 will be an outside figure. You see, I didn’t know hew much things cost. First, I went and got silk drawers, silk unéershirts. and silk stock- ings. The stockings cost $5 a pair, and the shirts and drawers $10 apiece. I got two sets, and that cost $50. Then I got two shirts for $2 apiece, and a couple of dollars’ worth of collars and cuffs. The first time I got a setback was when I went fora hat. It wason Broadway. I ain't going off Broadway becauso I want the best. Well, I wanted the highest- prico hat, and they brought out_one for 5 the darndest-looking thing ever you saw. It was white, and made of otter fur, T got thus silk one for 10, and I guess this is good enough. I went toa tailor’s and got a nice black diagonal suit for $80, and s nice beaver overcoat, lined with satin, for $90, There may be higher priced clothes, but they suited me, and the tailor said there wasn’t anything bet- ter for me in the shop if I was the big- gest man in Pennsylvania. That’s what I want. ’'m close as a monkey on a float- ing log, but I'm going to fit out first-clsss just for once, if I save all the more the rest of my life. I've vot to wait here most a week for my clothes, and I'm pay- ing §3 a day indoors and about as much uuLdE:uru, ut I don't care just this once. He got a silver-headed umbrella for #20, He asked what a pair of sleeve buttons would cost, and was vigibly amazed at hearing that he might pay $100 for intaglios, and as high as 850 for gold ones, He got a pretty pair for $18, He paid 820 for a gold pencil and S5 for a silver toothpick, although the clerk showed him toothpicks for double the money. A setof a{lirt studs worth $120 staggerad him, and he got a moderately plain set for $10, He said he wanted a match-box, but on being shown one for $300 said that as it was the only one worth having, and yet was a ridiculous thing to pay so much for, he wouldn't buy any. Finally he came to the watches. *‘Now,"” said {IB, “I want & good gold watch, and I want one that I won't} be ashamed to haul out before any lady in the world, The truth is, I don't live in Pittaburg, but1 come from close by there, and there’s a good many swells where I belong, and I'm worth more than the whole of them, and I ain't going to take a back seat when 1 get there. 1 suppose you can show me watches for $500—" ‘*Seven hundred dollars, sir,” said the clerk; *“ our repeater and split-second watches are 870(11 But if you want a good, first-class watch, as good for all practical purposes as any that was ever made, tage one of these for $200." That is what the young man did, thuufih not until he had handled a $700 watch for several minutes most tenderly and with longing in his eyes. He vould afford it, he said, _but "he thought it would be foolish, **Curious thing!"” he said, quite irrele- vantly; *“I don't feel as if I had as much woney, after all. 1 came here to get the very best of everything, but I believe when I go back I won't have any of the highest-priced things, except shoes, hat, and underclothes. Now, I thought $7 would buy she best shoes on Broadway; but when I came to get them they cost %18, They are beauties, though. They have medium soles and patent leather up over the foot, about like a slipper, and from the leather up above the ankle they have what are called steckingets— that is, black silk uppers, with flesh-colored kid under them,’ “But they are evening shoes?” “‘Oh.are they! Well,I don’t know what they are. 1 guess they'll take the cake where they're going, day or night. Well, what do you suppose I paid for handker- chiefs—silk, of course. Why, I paid 85 each; and 5 for suspenders, and £5 for a penknife,” ‘‘We have come jeweled suspender at- tachments at 8120—very beautiful, in- deed,” said the clerk. “Oh, never mind the young man. He bought a comparatively plain vest chain, and a double one, for £45, and then said that he did not think there was anything else that he wanted except gloves,and he had priced them and found that the very best kids cost only 3, though he could pay $18 if he wanted sealskin. He jotted dowu his purchase on a card, and when he came to calculate the total he said that at first he thought it would reach £300, then 400, and now it was evident that by the time he had spent a week in town at 86 a day d pni\{ his fare back to his home #6560 would be about the full amount he would have expended.

Strange Changes in the Political Feel- ing, as Experienced by a South- ern Editor. Mr. J. C. Fowler, editor of The Bristol (Tenn.) News, was grossly insulted lately by the intolerant Bourbons of his section on account of his bold expressions of friendship for Mahone and the Readjuster cause. The persecution was so malig- nent and persistent that the report started that Mr. Fowler had made up his mind tg emigrate to escape it. The free circulation of this report called from the gentleman a sharp letter, of which the following is an extract: “In the twenty-three years I have lived in this county I have witnessed often the compensating swing of that public pend- ulum which beats and measures the strug- gle between thought and passion, vice and virtue. 1 have lived to see slavery declared to be of divine origin and a blessing to mankind, and then, before the expiration of a single senatorial term, the same people declare it had been a curse to our country, and they would not see it reestablished if they could. I have lived to see Abraham Lincoln, when dead, mourned as great, good and gener- ous by the same people who, four years previous, had denounced him as a chim- panzee and an idiot. I have lived to see Andrew Johnson run out of Tennessee, presed and pursued with weapons, and then welcomed back ag the deliverer of the same pecple. I have lived to see the same people who applauded the pulling of his nose and the slapping of his face in Bristol, in 1861, whoop and hurrah for him as an incorruptible president in 1865. 1 have lived to see Benjamin F. But- ler crowned with the governorship of one of the greatest states that fought the long battle of American independence, by the party a section which had previously outlawed him as a spoon thief,a degrader of woman, and an enemy of man. I have lived to see Horace Greeley denounced as the originator and developer of nation- al selition, and as the author of every southern misfortune and sorrow, and then quickly proposed and pushed for the loftiest pedestal of homor and power by one and the same southern puo- ple. “T have lived to see John E. Massey proposed and voted for as the representa- tive of Virginia in the American congress by the same party and people who, little more than a year previous, had denounc- ed him as the embodiment of all that dis- honor could mean or degradation imply. 1 have lived to see Hunnicut, like Mas- sey, stoned and egged in Richmond, and then voted for by the same people to represent that and their proud city in the congress of the United States, and after- ward live respected and die regretted on Virginia soil. I have lived to see Robert W. Hughes hooted by a state-line mob when he attempted to present his views as a candidate }or congress, and then by the same people pronounced a humane and model federal judge. I have been, and am now, engaged in a movement which some persons seem unequal to the task of comprehending or appreciating 1 have believed that liberalism and na- tional free suffrage, free education, free thought, and free speech restored, state sovereignity and the resumption of protec- tion by Virginia to all her weak and un- fortunate children were worth a struggle, and would command the respect of man- kind. 1 believe that struggle can not fail. 1 know public opinion will, in the end, always be just.” g AR ‘Why Be Downcast?
