He quotes from the Nurtum writ- ing as follows: “In the year 3724 the Christ was taken prisoner. and in the year 3532 he was cruci- fied.” He points out that 3724 and 3532 are the same year, and adds that this is explained by the course of the moon through the -plane of the ecliptic. In nearly nineteen years the moon passes through the whole circumference of the heavens, and what he terms a great course is 28 times 19, which gives 532, and accord- | ing to this calculation Christ’s birth was | fifty-three years before 3671, which is 3618, the difference between the first date (3761), the accepted date, and the last (3618) would be 143 years. The letter continues: *It would be of the highest importance if this work of Abraham Nurtum could be found in the Vatican library or in_any other, and fur- ther light might be thrown on the events of the period of Christ’s birth.”” And this passage further states: ‘“What formerly they said in treatise Sanhedrin,” etc. In regard to the Apostie St. Peter the book says that he was the apostle of Christ and the first Pope, and suifered martyrdom at Rome, and this is an additional evidence for the position of the Roman Catholic church concerning the presence of St. Peter at Rome. This book contains mat- ters in regard to the early history of Chris- | tianity, the persecution and executions of Christians, and other things conzerning the church up to the year A. D. 1692.

We were deeply grieved upon parting, but we promised to write very frequently. I would not be ready to sail for Europe for two or three months, and Rupert—there being no railroads in the South in those days—took a sailing vessel for the Atlantic coast. I mentign these trivial circumstances for reasons which will presently appear. Although I had never been on deep water, I was familiar with the aspect of such minor vessels as visited New Orleans at that time, which was before the con- struction of the Eads jetties and the deepening of the Mississippi River; but I had never seen a large vessel, and there- fore I was amazed to discover that when Rupert left the lighter which bore him to the mouth of the river, and. clambered upon the deck of the large liner bound for the Atlantic, I too seemed to be aboard, and to be filled with admiration over the noble appearance of the ship. As quickly as possible afterward I consulted books giving full descriptions of such vessels, and discovered that what I had assumed to be a vision was correct in all its details. This had occurred to me one drowsy after- noon while I lay half awake on a certain couch of which I was very fond. At the time I was not familiar with the strange history of this couch, and unless you in- sist that it is necessary to a complete un- derstanding of the many peculiar circum- stances which afterward became associated with it I prefer not to give it, for reasons | which I shall make clear when I can see you again. Ishall say nowonly that it | was a surpassingly comfortable affair, that no one but myself could find any pleasure in reclining on it, and that my family had abandoned it wholly to my use. Rupert was to have put in considerable time during the voyage in writing to me, and T also was to write to him as much as | 1 could during that interval. I went about | my own agreeable task at odd moments, but one day a thing occurred which caused me to tear my writing into fragments. I had been so busy with social pleasures b wise with mine. doubt in my mind thatI had seen and conversed with him. of that episode was neither one of us to be together on the ship, so natural, simple and easy did it seem. or twice before the ship touched at Charles- ton.

This is the story as it was written by my | a drowsy afternoon, when the atmosphere old friend, Dr. Entrefort, that extraor-|of New Orleans had a special quality dinary Creole of whom I have printed ac- I shail premise its introduction here with the assurance that while I know him to have been of a be- wilderingly complex temperament and of a nervous organization having so fine and sensitive qualities as to set him widely his intellect and intelligence were of a com- manding order, his will seemingly invinci- ble, and, last of all, his sincerity unfailing. Following is his own account of a very extraordinary experience, Written at my which I alone seemed to feel and which fillea me with a peculiar soft throbbing of an infinite sweetness that I ever had a de- sire to repose on this couch; and those days were of rare occurrence. In my riper years I have given careful scientific atten- tion to this atmospheric phenomenon and to its effect on my own temperament and that of a few other persons whom I have discovered, but I have not space here, even should you desire that I take it, for setting out the remarkable discoveries which I have made. As I understand your re- quest, you want only a simple, straight- forward account of the tragedy in which Rupert figured so strangely.* I'had again stretched myselfon the couch under the favorable conditions which I have described, and soon thereafter, fall- ing into a state which for convenience we may call a doze, I suddenly found my- self with Rupert on the ship, which by this time was rounding the Florida Keys. At the moment when I appeared before him he was writing to me, but as we rap- idly exchanged all the news we had, his writing, through which I glanced, was of nouse, and he laughingly destroyed it be- ore my eyes. Upon awaking I did like- There was not the least The strangest part that 4t surprised This experience was repeated once She looked somewhat fright- I may say here that he never I will explain this some I must pass on now to the climax of As you are for One day, when, having reclined on the couch chatting with Rupert in Charleston while he was busily engaged in adjusting a powerful battery which he had contrived, aslight mistake on his part sent a killing current through his body. fell to the floor, livid and senseless. conscious of a violent shock of anguish to see him thus destroyed, and I awoke from my doze on the couch trembling violently, cold in all my members and bathed with a clammy perspiration. myself I cried aloud in my anguish, and my mother ran to my assistance. Forget- ting her injunction I exclaimed: Instantly he I was Unable to control “Rupert is dead! I have just seen him killed at Charleston.” My mother fell upon her knees at the and with preparations for my trip to Eu- rope that I had found little time to rest on my favorite couch. Indeed, it was only of * Entrefort afterward furnished me with docu- ments explaining the extraordinary things to which he alludes in this place for their use.—W. narrative, but this is no C. M. side of the couch, took me in her arms and instead of chiding me held me close, kissed me again and again and assured me over and over that I had been merely dreaming and that Rupert must be alive and well. This did not reassure me. I at once be- came violently ill. Did I not know that my friend was dead? Had I not seen him lying stark and livid on the floor? And I could not bear to lose him—1 could not give him up. Rupert had been of an exceedingly in- genious turn of mind, and electricity had been always an absorbing stutly with him. I knew as well as he that the refusal of his parents to indulge his bent and force him to become a surgeon would go for nothing; that his heart was in electricity, that he would devote his life to it in spite of all, and that he might make wonderfal dis- coveries in time. Hence, when I found him in Charleston conducting his electri- cal studies and experiments in secret I was not at all surprised. For this purpose he had fitted up a laboratory in an old aban- doned warehouse, where there was no dan- ger of discovery. And there he lay dead in this hidden place. Through the grief that I suffered over his death was thrust an infinite pity for the anxious waiting, hopeless searching and unending anguish of his parents. The next day after his death, feeling somewhat better, I took up a pen to write his parents and inform them of what had occurred and where the body might be found, when it suddenly flashed upon me to ask, “Even though he be dead why may I not be with him? If my conscious- ness can leave my body and instantly traverse the space separating New Orleans and Charleston, why may it not find him whithersoever he has gone?” The atmos- pheric condition was not suitable for the attempt that day; but on the following day arare good fortune blessed me—the day wasright, bul to my dismay I failed com- pletely. Instead of finding Rupert, though my will so to do seemed all-powerful, I aiscovered myself somewhere else. Where Iwasand what I saw are matters irrele- vant to this account and accordinglyZl omit them; but Rupert was not there, nor anywhere in the universe, L thought, nor could I even go to the place where I had left his body to the rats that swarmed in the warehouse; and then the temptation to believe that the ending of this life is the end of all assailed me with tremendous force. It would have become a conviction but for an extraordinary happening. Justas L was about to drag myself back to con- sciousness I gave closer heed to a peculiar sensation which I had frequently felt since Rupert’s death and had never felt before. I had been conscious of it, faint though it was, but ascribed it to the sadly shaken state of my nerves. But when I finally forced myself to seize and analyze it I realized that it was something new, strange and portentous. I shall not de- seribe it nor explain the process, mental or otherwise. by which I reached the conclu- sion that the soul of Rupert lived and that its intelligence and activity were ham- pered.by some terrible force, the nature of which I could not conceive. This led me into a profound and ex- haustive train of reasoning upon waking, but as not one person in ten thousand could understand it, and as it would be very long and complicated and I must obey your injunction, I omit it altogether. 1 will say only that I started overland for Charleston the following day, making all the haste that the generous co-operation of my vparents and abundant money with which they supplied me could accomplish. Arriving at Charleston [ went straight- way to the warehouse where my friend’s body lay. But was it there still? Nearly | ley Cycle Company $7: a month had elapsed since his death, and anything might have happened. If I should find the body destroyed by decom- position or other means, then the vital thing which it was necessary for me as my friend’s friend to do might remain undone for all eternity, and he so be lost to me and to his own noble opportunities for- ever. Iam compelled unwillingly, as a partial explanation of my fears and conduct, to state a few of the questions that presented themselves to me and that I was required to answer, as an explanation of my fears and conduct. Ts electricity the life prin- ciple? Is it the sublimated substance of the shadow under which Pythagoras so blindiy groped? Isit the unembodied, unchained force that organizes matter and gives to mind its character and potentiality ? If so, and it invade the body of a man in fatal volume, will it not find in the principle of his organism and activities a congenial essence which it may appropriate and as- similate and then pass on with a small ad- dition to its force? And if the volume be not sufficient to overcome and appropriate this life principle, but only to leave it crippled as a whole or in part by destroy- ing the balance which makes it effective: what then? 1In the first case it is clearly death, as we know; but what of the indi- vidual identity thereafter? In the second case—that was what I expected to find my friend’s. I was not at all surprised to discover the door of his laboratory locked, nor, on forc~ ing it open, to see my friend lying there just as I had seen him once before nearly a month past. [ was not surprised to ob- serve an absence of decomposition or of other harm. He lay livid and stark where he had fallen, his dry eyeballs fixed with that same look of agony on the ceiling. There was but one thing I could do to cure my friend of the crippling which his spirit had suffered—but one thing that could be done to restore him to me and himself. And it is hard for one friend to do this for another. * e cwl e e e e He is free and happy now, as I knew he would be, and we are often together as in the sweet old days of long ago. My secret has been kept to this day, when its keep- ing is no longer necessary. And the “‘assassin,” whose dagger was found in my friend’s noble heart, was never discovered. AFTER LIGHTER LICENSES.

A Restaurant Keeper Makes a Novel and Up-to-Date Bid for Patronage. A couple of enterprising restaurant keep- ers on California street, near Sansome, have taken advantage of the bloomer craze and have established what they call a bloomer cafe. The waitresses witl all be attired in cyclists’ uniforms, which the restaurant keepers believe will be ‘‘fetching.” They state that 1n this departure from the ordi- nary there are two objects in view, novelty and comfort. The novelty will be that it will be the first place of the kind in the City, if not in the United States, where women dress in bloomers. With reference to the other matter, the projectors state that the wait- resses will be able to move among the tables and handle the dishes and food with more freedom than as though they were incumbered with skirts. The project is a sortof a gamble, the men think. It will be either well patron- ized or be a dead frost with the public, and the fate of the scheme will be decided within forty-eight hours, the men believe. UNDER THE DEATH WATOH. Murderers St. Clair and Hansen in San Quentin. Thomas St. Clair and Hans Hansen, the mutineers of the bark Hesper, who mur- dered Mate Fitzgerald and were convicted of thecrime in the United States District Court, were taken to San Quentin yester- day to await execution, and will be under the constant surveillance by a death watch until they ascend the scaffold on the 18th inst. President Cleveland’s refusal to interfere in their behalf, word of which was received by the United States Marshal on the 7th, has deprived them of all hope and a con- stant watch has been kept on them to pre- vent attempt of suicide, St. Clair having threatened to end his life 1f possible before the gallows claims him.

These reductions were forced upon the Southern Pacific by the demoralization of rate compacts among Western railroads | resulting from a grand iree-for-all scramble | for Utah business. The consequence was | that Californian shippers were seriously injured, for the coveted trade of Utah began to slip away from them, and as freight on shipments over the Sierras from California decreased the railway company lost heavily. Merchants and manufac- turers have been clamoring for relief and the Traffic Association took the subject | under consideration witha view to making a fight before the Utah railroads at a con- ference of their officials to be held in Salt Lake City late this month. it was known that the Southern Pacific Company had the question in hand, and shippers have been anxiously looking for- ward to whatever relief measure the rail- road might adopt. The railroad did en- deavor to fix rates into Utah, but failed becanse the lines east of Ogden, the ter- minus of the Central Pacific, refused to make a joint rate. Failing in that, lower rates were made to Ogden, but these offered no relief and failed wholly in protecting Californian shipping_business to Salt Lake and other points in Utah. This new tariff, however, has been applied to Utah com- mon points as well as to the Ogden ter- minus, : Assistant General Freight Agent Sproule stated yesterday that the cats in Utah rates were made for the purpose of placin, Californian productsin Utah at rates equal to those from Western shipping centers. “We have made the cut to meet the dis- turbed condition in Utah business,” said he. *“The Eastern roads into Utah having been cutting and fighting for freight busi- ness to that State to the detriment of Cali- fornia. And the Southern Pacific has done this to help Californian shippers—to iveh them a chance to send freight into tah.' The commodities affected by the new tariff are belting, rubber goods, cartridges, demijohns, hosepipe, powder, shot, spices, lass, mineral water, and also sugar in car- oad lots from the Chino sugar factory. The rate on rubber belting from Chicago to Salt Lake has been $2 20, and from San Francisco to Salt Lake $2 14. For this reason the local rubber factory was shut out of competition, but now the rate is §1 from San Francisco to Utah, This is merely one instance to show the import- ance of the competiticn into which the Southern Pacific has been forced.
