Invalld Stace Childhood, Death Does Tta Work When Petriface tion Tteaches the Hoart ~S8kill of Surgecons Bafiled, mmerclal-Gazette, Ind.,, January 25,—A Miss Hsnnah Stoat, Hind's county, north of this city on the Indianapolis & Vincennes railroad, She was the daughter of Mr. cinnati ( VINCENNES, 2 woman, station, Miss d had been & helpless invalid since child hood. Several months ago your corre- spondent mado a visit to the home of this living curiosity and conversed with her, Sheeatin an_ easy chair, with her limbs doubled up, before the door. A younger sister was a constant_attendant. When Miss Stout was a child it was noticed that at times she would lose the uee cf her limbs, and complained of lameness and soreness in her jofuts, and for some time her parents thought she waa afflicted with a slight rheumatizin On account of ill-health her parents would not allow her togo outin wet weather, and kept her from achool al together. The child grew gradually worse, and finally sho became a helploss invalid, The physicians for miles around called in, but not one of them could diagnose her case. Uorrespondence was had with all the leading medical instltutions in the country, but little aid or eatlefaction could be secured, The strange malady that bad {aken posseesion of the gitl was watched closcly with preat interest, and it was found that her flesh was gradually becoming hardened. Her feet and limbs —both legs and arms—were becoming hard as a rock, and not an impression could be made in them by the touch. The invalid was not much of a sufferer from physical pain, but at times she would complain and become fretful, but as a usual thing she was quiet and far from belng talkative, She anawered the questlons put to her y your correspondent in a mechanical manner, not manifesting any interest in her condition, She could crochet, but it was wholly with a finger movement, and before she died her fingers stiffened and became ro eolidified that she could not even move them. She had only one kind of crocheting she conld do, and that was a stitch she had invented herself. She amused herself in this way by hours; always an invalid, sho had never learned to read or write, and her o | family thought it best not to annoy her mind with hard lessons. She was wheel- ed around in her invalid chatr, and the family was as patient with her as they ¥ |could possibly be under the circum- etances. The strange dizcase that car- ried her fo her yrave progressed 8o elowly that it was Imperceptible. For weeks not a sight of petrifaction was visible, Suddenly she would grow nervous and drowsy, and it was at euch times that tie family knsw the dreadfual malady had again commenced its work. Her feet and ankles and_the lower part of her limbs were stiff and hard as rock, and where fleshy substances ought to have grown the body was hard as stone. She could move her toes, but her limbs were as stiff asa piece of wood. Her arms were also immovable, so far as el- biow movement was concerned., She could move her fiugers back and forth olightly. Her forehead was hard as stone; so also were her checks., The main’ part of her body was the samc. Her neck inclined forward a little, but was hard, and not _the slightest impras- ion could he made in the flesh, ~ She was pale and looked like an invalld. Her cyes were dark and large and bright; her hair was brown and her face altogether intelligent and pleasant. The best medical aid in the country has been called in to discuss and diag- noso this most remarkable case, but phy- siclans from Philadel phia, Cincinnati and ‘hicago advised that bat little orno med- icine be given her, as her case was be- yond earthly comprehension and human as:istance, Her father, Mr, J. W, Stout, is an in- telligent and sgreeable gentleman, who has resided in t neighborhood for over a quarter of a century. He has studiod medicine eome, and his constant inter- sourse with eminent mewmbers of {he medical profession has given him much information concerning the sciencs of physiology, and he declares that he has never yei met & physician who could give any satls faction concerning the peculiar ailment that possessed his daugter. Ho eays the highest medical authoritics do uct quote a case of this kind anywhere in this country or any cther coantry on the face of the clvilized globe, He does not claim that she petriied completely, and 1is yet in doabt as to the resl nature of the ailment, but thinks that her welght, for 8 small woman was unnatara), Her weight has been estimated at from 300 to 400 pouds, and yet tho was a very small woman, delicate and short, and or- dinarily would not weigh one hundred pounds. Here is the problem that is puzzling, The opinions of physiclaus differ widely, and while living some clalmed that she was turning to stone, and others advan- ced the idea that she might be turning to bone, or ossifying. Yet it was held that her weight was entirely too great for the latter theory t» be plausible. ln either case the unfortunate conditlon of the woman was more remarkable and wonderful, and she has been examined by many incredulous people who were prone to belleve that the human family could contain a phenomenon so utterly and completely incompreliensible to the medical fraternity. The patient woman bore her affllction for over twenty five years, Ier father spent a fortune in his endeavors to cure his daughter of the strange complaint, but all his efforts In that direction were bailled, because, In spite of the fact that he sent fcr eminent pbysicians in the lewding cities, and took her to meny of the leading hoepltals, not a par- ticle of aid or relief could they glve her, and many good physicians said frankly to Mr, Stout that she woula never get well, and that as soon as the frouble reached bor heart she would die. When she caught cold it worrled her a great deal, and her system would then get out of order and her ailment grow worse, In this way she lived from childbood until death, ~ She was incapable of doing any- hing but crocheting, Her sister would rcad to her, but most of the time all these yeurs she lived sec would sit in her in- valid chalr and amuse herself looking out of the window. Her crochet work was an_oddity. She only worked one stitch and she would make this by the yard, ! and had several balls of It in the house. The trouble reached her heart and she died a peacefal death. BLIND ASYLUM, ©oh 1 Inc To the Editor of the Brr. The institution for founded in the year 1¢ uel Bacon, and this institation elgned to educate such children as wers unable to see sufficiently to be educated in our ccmmon schools for which the leg ™ ed with mpetence, The Principal 1gnor- ance a the blind was 5 by Prof. Sam was de- itlature appropriated the sum mnacossary to carry out the design of the institu- tion. Prof. Bacon being appointed principal of this institotion was well qualifed to insract thay children, he being a graduate of the Ohio for the Blind, also of the Harvard loge. Under his management all waspeace los itute col- and harmony, butthcse days have paesad, In the year of 1877 the supreme court of this state decided that this institution was not an educational one, but en asylum for the care relicf and protection for the unfortunate, and at that date Prot. Bacon was removed from the principalship of this institation to give room to oae J. B, Parmalee whom bad been removed from the lowa college for the blind on account of his ignorance and incompetency of conducting the same. The above named gentleman was a re. lative of Commissioner F. M. Davis, chairman of the board of said institution. As soon as he had taken chargo of eaid Institution trouble began, and the same we thiuk will continue as long as ho ro- malns there and has the power ia his hands. Several of the principal studies were dispensed with and some of the punils expelled from the institution for requesting to be instructed in_the same, and these pupils were obliged to go to other institutions to Tprocure an fedu- cation by which they might maintain themselves. Of late sowe of the parents becoming disgusted of the slow progress that their children were making in their studies, removed them to another Insti- tution, as they might procure a necessery education fcr the maintenance of them- selves. Besides incompetency In our instita- tlon, the same was sald of him in the managemont of the Towa college, which can be seen in the followlng, copied from the trusteea’ report: “It bacame necessary for the best in- tercst and success of the collego to make thorough and complete changes in the principal and teachers of said college. Since the appointment of Robort Casoth- eny the board flatter themselves that they have now in charge of the institu- tlon a principal of capacity, honesty, ex- perlence and determination, and with the assistancs of the present corps of teach- ers, instructors and employes to conduct and manage the college bencficlally and successfully. The spirit of insubordina- tion has cessed.” The reader will infer from that thatJ. B. Parmalee did not possess any of the above points. Tt Is to be hoped ; hat the present log- islature will remedy the defects by pass- ing a bill to maintain a college for the educatlon of the blind. 5 BraiNarp, Neb., January 3, 1885. o — The Washingion Monument, The Washington monument is sald to be one sixty-fourth of an inch out of plumb, This does not scem much, nor is there any probability that it will ever cause the monument to topple over. Very little things, however, sometimes make a great dlsturbance in the human system, The blood corpuscles are only the thirty-one-hundredth of an inch in diameter, and if they ars not fully sup- plied with iron their owner will feel weak and languid, and not worth two cents. Brown’s Iron Bittsrs enriches the blood corpuscles with iron, and imparts vigor to the whole physical machinery, curing ma- laria, indigestion, etc. Silos and Ensilage, ‘We have several times in months past given directiong for the building of silos, but from the letter of a correspondent we find that ail of our readers do not yet know what ensilage is, therefore we pub- lish the following by Dr. Thurber on silo-building: Asilois a contrivance for preserving green fodder in tho tresh state in a man- ner similar to that used in the canning of vegetables and fruits for humen food— by exclusion of air. A silo—literally a pit—is any air-tight recsptaclo, 1t may be bullt of stone, of brick, or oi wood. It may be constructed entirely below ground, entirely above ground, or builc into a bank and be partly covered and partly exposed. The important point belng that its walls ehall be air- tight.

The Bloody ville Revived by a Victim Crueltics of Anderson. A Strike for Liberty, To the Rditor of THr Bk, I your issue of the 27th inat, I notlec an account of Jeff Davis slobbering over the Liberty bell at St. Louis, aud also a letter from him to ‘‘the scciety of the Army and Navy of the Unlted States” of Maryland accopting honoraty member- ship in that soclety. Now this man Davls seems to be In- clined to ‘“epsak outin meetin,” and while he can do that littlething in a very echolatly and flowery way, he somehow will slop over where he ought to keep In, v bell remember Let him slobber over the Lib: if he wants to, We well when he asraulted the Goddess of Liberty herself, and with other leaders mado a desperate attempts to ‘“‘wade through elaughter a throne and shut the gates of mercy on all man- kind."” 1f Davls will talk and take occaslon to reiterate his professed love of state righta principles he and other ex.confoderates must expect their former encmies in war to reply to some of his utteronces. In 1882 Davis delivered an address before the Southera histories] society at New Orleans on_which occasion ho raked up Andersonville just to deny the trath of the reports that had been circulated about that hell of his. Speaking of Andersonville he said: “Tt is false! utterly false, that our people ever did treat prisoncrs with cruelty and I vain to want the fact shown as it can bo shown.” I presumo Davis meant by this to do- ny that prisoners were treated with cruelty at Andersonville and elsewhere by the confederates. If no, 1 know for myself that he is a liar, If, however, he means to exonerate the people of the south I will agree with him in that—for I know also that the people of the south were not responsible for the treatment of prisoners, but Jeff Davis and other confederate authorities wero, 1t is forgo‘ten that when certain confed- erates requestedfthe removal of Winder, commander at Andersonville, and the ap- polntment in his stead of s>me cne who would have *‘at least the fealings of com- mon humanity.,” This man Davis in. stead of removing him made him com mander-in-chief of all the military pris- ons in the confederacy. Winder's well-known cruelty and mur— derous practices seems to have recom- mended him to Davis for promotion. Davis wrote something olse some twenty- two years ago which may bear reproduc- tion just now. It was my miefortune to fall into the cluthes of J. D. & Co. as ono of a party of federal soldiers known as Mitchel raiders, After lingering in various dun- geons and jails for about four months in almost hourly expectation cf being put to death, part of the time in chains and irons put on by the brutc Leadbetter, and removed by the kind-hearted and gallant gentleman, *‘Pat Cleburne,” and having eeen our brave leader and ecven comrades led out to the scaffold where they were executed, the latter without an hours’ warning, though they had been in the handa of the enemy for more than two months, and eeeing and feeling that death, aye, worse than death, was grad- ually stealing over us, the suspense under which we labored 8o long becom- ing unbearable, we in our boyih simplic- ity wrote a lobter to Jefferson Davis ap- peallng to him for the assurance that wo should be treated as ordinary prisoners of war and exchanged as sucli, This letter was forwaraed through the regular channel. Mr. Randolph, secre- tary of war, forwarded itto Mr. Davis with the recommendation that we be held as hostages for confederates in the hands of the federals. But hanging the leader and one-third of his followers did not satisfy Davle’ thirst for blood as Is evi- denced by his endorsement on said letter a8 follows: “Inquire whether there is anything to justi fy a discrimination between thess and others who were execated for the same ullun;a l‘ OF course he failed to find anything to satiefy & dlscrimivation and instead of roplying to the letier, as a gentleman would have done, a court martial was convened at Atlanta, where we wero, for our trial which it was well-known would convlct us on the charga of baing spics, for “they were predetormined to con and closely packed in the silo, treading it down firmly, The fodder i3 covercd by boards or planks, upon which heavy weights are placed, the cover followlng the fodder as It settles. may be heavy logs, stone, or boxes filled with earth. When the fodder is taken out for feeding durlng the winter it may be quite unchanged, msy have an alco- holic odor, or even a strong odor of vine- gar. In either case the animals are fond of it; but as the alcoholic acetlc adors indicate that there has been some loss of nutritive matter by fermentation these conditlons are not desirable, and recent experiments tend to show that they may be avoided. Several power cutters are now made for the purpose of preparing the fodder for storing insilos. The term ensilage is applicd to the method of pre- serving fodder and to the fodder that has been thus preserved. The term ensilo is short, and well suited for the use of the word ensilage.

You sir, stand charged with the murder of de- fenseless prisoners who fell into your hand during the war of the rebellion, You know Capt. Wirtz was hung for these crimes, Evidently you were more guilty than he. Now, sir, I wish to ‘‘inquirc whether there is anything to justify a discrimination between you and Capt. Wirtz, who was executed for the same of- fense?” Yours truly, D. A. Donsky, Kearney, Neb,, Jan, 30, 1885, Sr——m— One of the Heroes of Gainesville Liv- ing in Wanr, MiuwAUKEE, February 2, —General Heory N.
