The Board have expended for relief purpose*
tbo sum of $11,350.32. In addition to this, they
have largo quantities of medicines, clothing,
blankets, and shoos, and a number of sowing
machines, donated to them by other organiza--
lioua, among which are iho Chicago Relief and
Aid Society, tho Oorman-Atnorican Dispensary,

ties, they deviated from their policy,
having expended $1,539.40 for coal, $1,230.31 for
flour, ami $331.27 for medicine aud surgery.
They also aided tho Young Ladies’ Sowing So

also incurred in traveling. They wore aided by
Mr. C. Q. Trusdoll and Mr. Dledon, otherwise
they would bavo been obliged to pay out much
larger sums in assistance to their poor. They
are also indebted to tho following gentlemen for

LOCAL LETTERS.
INTERESTS OP im>B PARK AND LASS.
To tho Editor of The Chicago Tribune:
Hide Park, Oct. 3.— l'ho ordinance for tbe al
teration of tho names of tho streets of Hyde
Park appears to havo excited tho just indigna
tion and opposition of her citizens. Tho action
of Councilman in Hyde Park appears so often
prompted by what are not the requirements of
tho people that it is time there was formed a
ax-payers* association, which would look alter
their real interests. Without co-operation in
Chicago and Lake for a complete change in no
menclature, to havo a change only in Hyde
Park would be attended with great
confusion and great trouble; and
it is well to have tho ordinance repealed. Thors
can bo no doubt, however, that while a partial
change, such os that unadvisedly proposed for
Hyde Park, when made Irrespective of Chicago
and Lake, would create great confusion, if there
could be co-operative action groat advantages
would result to all. Bach a designation of
streets, such a nomenclature of houses, as
Philadelphia haa, if applied to those corpora
tions, would dissipate tho great trouble which
citizens now have Lu finding their way.
It is shown each year that tho north part of
Hyde Fatk, connecting as it does with Chicago
by continuous streets and with tho Town of Lake
by cast and west streets, yearly increasing in
density of population and in identity of interests,
are so situated as to require a distinct organiza
tion from what is to care for and protect the
more southern parts of Lake and Hyde Bark,
and that these intercuts are more identified with
Chicago. As it now is, those who have different
mid opposing views—those of tho southern parts
of ilydo Bark and Lake—control tho groat
population adjoining tho city, oud in
duce ordinances, such as that now exciting
iudiguatiou. It is doulrfid to call tho attention
uf the citizens who will next week assemble to
(ho groat d&ugor in which the railroads place the
women, children, and all who have to cross their
railroad tracks. How long will tho citizens sub
mit to havo tho lives of their families put iu the
greatest peril ? The Htock-Vard tram, crossing
m tho day the Drcxol and Clrand boulevards,
cioasmg tho dummy track of Cottage Orove ave
nue, crossing the other through streets, and
more especially Forty-nrst, Union, and
other near streets by short curves, run
their traius with forty or fifty cars,
so aa to cover at the same
time four ot five croßniuga, and ate driven by an
eugluo in tho rear, the bell of which oaunot bo
hoaui at the head of the car, and where tho man
(if any tnoie bo) caunot bo soon, cannot signal
to the roar car, cannot communicate so as to
slop the engine, thus putting in jeopardy, all the
while, children who are going to school. This is
a danger and a iiulhbuco winch should be abated
and receive attention at this nest meeting,
Tho citizens of Hyde Bark oud of Lake have
a common danger to fight uud a common inter
est to protect. A Citizens' Association alone will
enable thorn to free themselves from dm danger,
as, has boon found, i* the only method in refer
ence to tho nuisance of street-cars. \\

Tothi Raxtor ofThf Chicago Tribune
CnicAOo. Oct. 2.—ln your isauo of to-day la a
letter from your correipomlonl at Ann Arbor,
Mich., in wblcb mention (• made of the so-called
“flonjeopatbio College" which tbe Rogontsof
the Stale University established ae a branch of
the University. Itmayaewoll be stated hero
that it la very doubtful If the Regents lived up
(o the letter or spirit of the law in establishing
the Homeopathic Department.
The law passed by tho Michigan Legislature
reads os follows: " The Board of itegonta of tho
University of Michigan are hereby authorised
to establish a Homeopathic Medical College
as a branch or department of said Univer
sity, wblcb shall bo located at Ann Arbor."
The action of the Regents in appointing tiro
Professors, one of Theory and Practice,’ - and
one of •* Materia Medico," and calling Mem tho
Faculty of the Homeopathic College, Is a
glaring absurdity, and tho action of tlio Btslo
Homeopathic Society of Michigan, in ncccptiwj
each a traveaty to represent a •* homeopathic
college." was hasty and imprudent. Some of
the beet legal talout in Michigan, and in Chicago,
do not hesitate to give an opinion that tho action
of the Regents was illegal aud a fraud. It wilt
become a matter of grave doubt whether tbe
diplomas issued to homeopathic graduates will
prove of any value wh&tovor. It is also a mat
ter of doubt if tho Professors can legally draw
any salary for their services. If tho question
shall come before the Buprome Court, as it mav.
no homeopathic or allopathic physician would
testify that two Professors constitute a medical
college.
There are eight homeopathic colleges in tbe
United States, and none have less than ulnn
Professors, and tho majority have twelve or
more.
The Homeopathic College, established as a
department of the Boston University, has a
corps of ten or twelve Professors.
The idea that those two Professors, untried
and inexperienced, will bo ablo to cover the
whole ground of homeopathic therapeutics and
materia mcdica is utterly absurd, in homeo
pathic colleges, the chairs of surgery, physi
ology, chemistry, obstetrics, etc., aro all taught
in such a maimer as to show the relationship
which they bear to homeopathic practice.
The homeopathists of Michigan will sooner or
later find that they have boon duped, and that
the apology for a college will prove a disgraceful
failure. Homeopathist.
DDMMV RAILROADS.
To (ftsfdtler of Tho C/uciigo 'fnfcuni
Chicago, Oct It.— Can you inform the publio
whether or not the Citizens* Horne Hail way Com
pany, which you lately called attention to as
about to bosiogo the Common Council for a
right of way over tho principal streets of the
South Division yet unoccupied, is a steam or
dummy railway company ? If it is, it should bo
watched and opposed with uoabatod vigilance.
If steam Is in its charter in any form, it augers
no good to tho public, but rather an intention
sooner or later to appropriato to itself some
street for exclusive steam railroad purposes.
Tho word *• dummy" Is now an equivocal term,
and may bo applied to an accommodation train,
and Is so applied by the raihoads leading out of
this city. The charter of the above company
was not on record a few days ego, as required by
law, which fact looks suspicious. iNyomun.

TJIEODOUE TILTON.
Hit Lecture* in New York and Brook*
lyn»
Kew York Tinv.t Stpt 30.
Every available scat of too vast auditorium at
Cooper luetituto was filled last ovouiugoo tho
occasion of tbo deliver}* of Theodore Ti Hod's
now lecture outitlod “ Tho Problem of Life."
Injinticipatlou of a rush for seats tho Hall was
filled at an early Hour, and by
clapping, stamping, and general demonstra
tion!) of imiiauouce it was nought to Hasten
tho lecturer to the platform. Tho ladies formed
a large representation of tho general gathering,
ami its spirit and feeling was expressed m loud
eboers at every possible opportunity. Whoa
Mosers. Fullerton. Morris, and Pearsall, counsel
for Mr. Tilton in tho recent memorable trial, cn
torod the hall, their appearance was greeted
with loud cheers; and later, when the lecturer
presented himself upon the platform, ho
was the recipient of such an ovation
as no more lecturer could elicit.
It was manifestly baaed upon an
active sympathy in a cause he was supposed to
represent, not unmixed, however, with a natural
fooling of curiosity at tho character of bis utter
ances. Ho entered the platform unattended,
and Hinging his bat and overcoat on the floor,
without introduction began his lecture. Through
out its delivery there was an evidence of per
sonal fouling and interest unknown in his former
methods and styles, sod when, with impassioned
eloquence, ho made direct references to his re
cent troubles, bo exhibited a passion and force
which drew down loud cheers. Beginning his
lecture, be observed that tbe problem of life, of
which he would treat, was not that which Hux
ley, with his theories of protoplasm, vainly
sought to solve, but was that one which was as
old os tho ages, unsettled as tho sea, and yet
ever vital as human nature. For he supposed
that every man had had tho same fair share of
> human experience; that is, every man
who had gone far enough into life to
feel the burden and boat of tho day. Every mao
who stood at the altar of his marriage, and
looked Into tho cradles of hia children, and laid
away his dead in holluwod graves,—every such
man, in tbe hurly-burly of ovory-day life, asked
himself what was tbe function, the mystery, the
problem of every-day life ? Solomon, the wise,
expressed lus opinion of it when ho said, “ Van
ity of vanities, all is vanity." and Job, the pa
tient mao, said. “ Cursed bo the day in which 1
was born.’’ Ho board men daily luvoigblng
against tbe world, and yet ho thought that, as
Oud, who made it, called It good, it was unbe
coming in men, lor whom Ho made it, to
pronounce it HI. It was a rich, and groat, and
wonderful world, created, after Inlinito cycles of
years, for man’s happiness and love. In poetic
imageries ho portrayed the wondrous richness
uf earth, with Us productions so multitudinous
that tiio human mind hod not tho capacity to
grasp the catalogue. And out of this bounty
how small was each man's portion;! He would
accord to man tho attainment of all the highest
ambitions of tho crested universe, bo would en
dow him with all tho possibilities a fertile fancy
could suggest, and his possession as compared
with existing things was as the posses
sion of the midget of stately forest. Hence
while the world was groat tbe mao's share was
little: ambition was vanity, and the only chance
was to surrender it, aud obtain instead the
mastery over one's self. The problem of life
was to tlml out tbe duly of life and tofulllllit.
It was not the attainment of wealth, nor power,
uor fame, nor learning, hut was, iu his judg
ment. tbe development of human character.
Hnpposu it was the attainment of wealth, or
power, or fame, or greatness, how many men
attain their ambition, and how many names of
tliis ago will not posterity willingly lot die '<
Carlyle said happiness was'ebeap If men only
knew the proper merchant to apply to
for it; and, although he did not
think the market was glutted with It. immortal
and exquisite was that story of mo King whose
malady could be cured only by wearing tho shirt
of tho happy man, and whim he found him ho
hod no shirt. (Laughter.) A mau'e character
was not only in ins own keeping, but it was m
his own making. Ah I ho said, be meant charac
ter and pot reputation. A man's character nos
what he was : a man's reputation was what peo
ple imagined bun to bo. [ Applause.] Character
was one thing, reputation another, and
sometimes they wore as far apart as
the East and West, different as day
and night. Character and reputation! Why, the
greatest character in all history made himself of
no reputation. I'ublic men are constantly mak
ing and losing reputations as tho stats wont
down and came up; but there was this difference,
that a star that sots will rise again, but a star
that (alls is lost forever. (Loeg-coutmued cheer
ing.) The plants in the garden were not more
numerous than the types of character, as ex
pressed in asceticism and luxury, cruelly and
gentleness, pride and humiliation, nedlutloa
and mirth. Human nature, that ts many-sided
and myriad-minded; human nntare was stole
and epicurean. colihalo and social, brutal and
gnntte, austere and bacchanalian, infidel and
devout,—all those characteristic* existed In the
human heart. The wise men seeking to develop
the problem of life, looking at all these forces,
would undertake to deal healthfully with all,
abnormally with none. Pleasure was to be
nought and despised, pain to ho shunned and to
bo endured, and in the millet of all these contra*
rillee, lie asked, did it over occur to them what
basis had good character in the opinion of men,
and how virtuous virtue must bo to bo cardinal.
Proceeding to illustrate, bo said, the fortitude
wbieh enabled HcmvoU and Cramer to plunge
their hands Into the flro wae natural;
it had no reference for religion, the one
being a pagan, tbo other a Christian. Fortitude
was a capacity inherent in human nature, and
ho asked wan there any carnation of thamo
which rebuked a grumbling at a toothache or a
headache and dared to murmur at a heartache.
(Applause.] Moo say the spirit is willing but
tbo flesh is weak; that was a elaudor on human
nature. Fortitude bore pain; courage braved
peril, and which of these types was the more
precious? Gibbon said that the cheapest
courage was that which led men (o the battle*
held, and Dr. Johnson assorted that the
verr rarest quality in human nature was
moral courage. Ho insisted that John
Thomas ruled tho English public, while Miss
Grundy governs the American public. No man
in the face of public opinion would assort tin
fault if ho doubted the thirty-nine articles, or
deemed temperance a failure, or trial by jury a
farce. Eraslue Bronson said that whilo knool
mg in a Catholic church a negro knelt on each
etdo of him, but it would tako Marlin Luther to
reproduce that picture in a Protestant church in
Boston, Ho denounced tho prevalence of fatso
hood In politics, commerce, the pulpit,
and in tho ladies' boudoir, and
said that in this civilized nineteenth
century a man forgave on injury
at tbo expense of his reputation. Tho seven
wise men of Athens c&cb in lus turn expressed
his Idea of a ported form of government m tho
following manner: Where injury to ono private
citizen is treated as an injury to tho whole com*
nmnity; whore tbo law has no superior; whore
tho people are neither rich nor poor; where vir
tue is honored and vice condemned: whore office
is conferred ou good men alone; whore tho peo
ple are ruled hy public opinion, not by legal en
actment. and where tho laws speak with
more authority than the demagogues. In
no seven men of this age did such wis
dom exist; it did not exist in the society in
which bo moved, hut ho did not dwell among
his audiouco. (Laughter.] Illustrating tho im
pulses which actuated the ancients ovcu in tiioir
sports, he said fame alone was tho reward of tho
Olympian victors, and Herodotus did not doom
it beneath him to read his works in their pres
ence. What would bo said of tbo suggestion
that Mr. Bancroft should in those days read bis
eleven books at Barnaul's ihppodromo. ami
Longfellow should compose a poem specially for
tbo occasion ? Ho condemned in general,
by comparison with ancient customs, tbo
prevalent habits of tbo present day, aud
directing attention to tbo epitaph on tbo
grave of JofTursou containing tho simple inscrip
tion that bo wrote tbo Declaration of Independ
ence, bo said that from tho loader to the lackey
all clamored for a third term. Ho encouraged a
higher standard of education for children, and
derided tbo false system of public morals which
condemned to perdition in a woman what was
pardonable in a man. Mr. Tilton also inveighed
against tbo permcioussystom which was convert
ing religion into a pious fraud, pulpit nroachiog
to sentimentality, cultivated society to luxurious
sensuality, and, Humming up, ho said wo ought
to tako larger views of lire, higher views of duly,
and holler views of accountability. Tho con
cluding portion of his lectoro was graudly beau
tiful in stylo and delivery, aud occasioned re
peated outbursts of applause.
Sew York Tribune, Oct, 1,
Theodore Tilton lectured in tbo Brooklyn
Academy of Music last evening on "The Mind.”
Half an hour boforo tho lecturer appeared tbo
hooso was almost full. All tho balcony and
orchestra chairs were occupied, and extra seats
woro placed within tho orchestra rail. Tbo
first gallery could contain no more persons
without crowding, and tho apoor gallery was
about half full. Tbo audience was made up
about equally of ladies and gentlemen. Among
tho more prominent persons present woro Mr.
Tilton's former counsel, Messrs. Morris, Pryor,
and Pearsall, W. B. Libby, and ex-Judge Green
wood. George C. Leys and Joseph Loader set
not far apart in tbo front row, aud attracted
curiouß glances from chose who knew their
faces.
Applause broke forth promptly as Mr. Tilton
walked ont alotio with a quick, nervous stop in
front of tho curtain and sot down. It was con
tinued until, with a flunhed face, ho stopped be
hind tho lecturer s stand and motioned for si
looco. Thoro woro signs of fooling in his fnco
and voico when in a fow warm words ho ex
pressed his thanks for tbo grootlng bo bad re
ceived. Tho loctare wan full of dramatic
passages, which woro delivered with a tiro
and cffcctivouoßS (bat produced long rounds
of applauso. Abandoning his policy of tho even
ing before at tbo Coupor Union, tho lecturer did
not hesitate to make several direct and cutting
references to his recent troubles. Thoao woro
Greeted with bands of applause and a fow
issca. Onco wbllo speaking with groat
energy about tho inilnonco of tho moral na
ture over tho mind, Mr. Tilton unexpectedly
broko forth with these words: “Tou thou
sand. thousand pities that tho editor of the
Brooklyn Eagle forgot to surround himself with
good company." This came so unexpectedly
that tho hearers paused for au Instant as if m
doubt, and then began to cheer and clap their
hands, interrupting, tho lecturer for a full
minute. Near the close of tho lecture
he exclaimed, “I won’t a«k you how
many are honest, for that also might bo tak
en au au allusion to tho editor of tho Eagle."
Another reference to ono of tho moo who played
a prominent part in the late scandal Investiga
tion was evidently received by tho audience as
intended to bo cutting. The lecturer in quoting
examples of culture, said, "Horace 1). Clatllu
save ho hasn’t read a book in years. But it i-t
well known that Alexander T. Htowart keeps up
daily his classical studios. Which of thoao mou
sets the best example before young men ? Which
would ho tho best to lean upon in a dark day ? "

THE WARD WILL CASE.
“Cabbage John’s** Advice to tho
Captain.
A Ghost In Court, Who Talked In Ihc
German Language.
Ward’s Illegitimate and Crazy Son in
Ohio.
Blind Tribune, Oel. 9.
The question to begin on to-day was ; What
did Capt. Ward toll Mr. Marlin that Cabbage
John told biro? Ilia to bo remembered that
when Mrs. Martin is entranced aud delivering
tbo oracles of some ghostly revolator, she (loon
not oven know tho purport of tho message that
proceeds through her own mouth, nor does she
hud out what it is, unless told by some one who
hears it. Tbo Court ruled out tho question, and
Mrs. Martin proceeded with her testimony.
XIKS MARTIN nMOMKM.
Capt. Ward said ho believed ho had been well
advised by Cabbage John in regard to employing
Theodore Luce in the Crystal City Glass Works
enterprise. Ho brought to Mrs. Martin a speci
men of tho ore from Hilvcr Islet, had it assayed
or examined by Cabbago John, wbo described
the richness and location of the mine it came
from. Capt. Ward told Mrs. Martin in the pres
ence of U. K. Booth that ho had no doubt of tho
wisdom of 0. J.’s conclusions,and that ho should
follow them, in accordance with that shade's
advice he employed C. F. Hlewart to lake charge
of tho Wyandotte rolling mills, and Col. E. M.
Pierce, of Arizona, to hunt lor minerals in that
Territory. Mrs. Martin has been in the habit of
ascertaining tho character of individuals for
Capt. Ward by "psychometrizing" their hand
writing, specimens of which tho Captain would
bring to her.
Copt. Ward agreed to sell Mrs. Martin a lot,
and gave her tho lumber to build tho house she
now lives in. behind his own place, and ho
promised to take Lis pay for tho lumber in sit
tings, She had given tho Captain sittings when
she was ho sick oho hadjto bo bolstered up in bed.
While living ou Jelforson kvomto sbo had
spoken of wishing to go to California, but Capt.
Ward had toid her ho did not wish her to go ;
that ho wanted her to stay because bo wanted
Cabbage John to advise him in regard to bin
business. Hlio does not know whether or not
she is tho only person wbo is "controlled " by
Cabbage John.
"1 didn’t know but sbo had a patent ou him,"
explained Mr Chipman to Mr. Pond.
Capt. Ward came into tbo room once when
Mies Harris was there, and produced a memo
randum, saying that his husiootm was very im
portant, and that the communications ho receiv
ed from spirits in tbo East agreed very well
with those ho had procured from Cabbage John.
Ho often left subjects upon which tho spirits
wore to he consulted at the next interview.
“ How much time did ho usually plvo tho
spirits to look the business up for him?" asked
Mr. Cbipmao.
•* It was according (o tho oxtont and nature of
tho business." tho witness said. Tho spirits ad
vised Capt. Ward not to go into tho enterprise
urged on him by Joab Lawrence, Onco when
Mrs. Martin was at Capt. W.’s house, there wan
a blind old woman there called Aunt Hasan, who
wanted a sitting, and Capt* Ward told
Mrs. M. that ho wished, if she had an
opportunity, the would tell Aunt Hasan that
Fred was not his sop ; that ho (Fred) be
longed to bor bod Fbor. Unco, also, when
some of tho linen came dirty from tho laundry
sho was called on by Capt. Ward for an explana
tion of tbo phenomenon ; ho said tboro hnu boon
something put upon tho clothes that colored
them, and lie wanted her to corno and seo if tho
spirits through her could (ell how It camo there.
Hho corno, and thoro were present I’rof. Maybow
and others. When sho came out of her trance,
Fred stood before her angrily accusing her of
making him troublo. Sho thinks ho is m heaven
now—m tho spirit-land. While Frod was accus
ing her Capt. Ward broko in with on explanation
tl.at Frod accused her of declaring that tho
spirits sold that ho had put tho spots on tho
clothes to annoy Mrs. Ward, and that ho was al
ways doing that. Hho has often heard Capt.
Ward say that ho had received communications
from tho spirits toiling him that Fred was not
liis hod. Fred was younger than tho othor boys.
Cabbage Jobn ton off an idea that Senator
Chandler bod drunk so much poor whisky that
ho was not tit for bis place ns a legislator.
Jill. POM) CnOHH-EXiVMINES JOIN. MAUTIN.
Capt. Ward's ilrot business with tho witness
was ia MarcU, 1870. lu tho spring or summer of
1870, ho consulted &s to Hilvor Islet; this was
tho first business matter ho asked her about.
Coco thoro was & break in tho mine so that tho
walor came in, aud Cabbago John suggested an
idea of building a coffer-dam. Immediately af
ter tho Bitting in rofoiouco to Silver Islet, Capt.
Ward told Mrs. Martin that (bo should invest in
tho miuo. Cabbngo John was ono of tho lUO
spirits that over took control of Mrs. Martin ;
it was at Dr. Stone's, in Oswego, Cabbago John
talked Gorman through hor to a Gorman who
consulted him in tho s&mo language, which, by
tbo way, Mrs. Martin did uotunUorstand, It was
Dr. Stone that named tho apint “Cabbngo
John.'' There aro other aciontillo men who talk
through Mrs. Martin ; ono is Amos Wright, a
Now York lawyer; another is an Italian astrolo
ger ; another is Andrew Kurlbaldnis, a German,
who enables hor to sco when blindfolded. Sbo
does not understand Italian, but talks it when
tho astrologer spoake through her. Of other
spirits that have advised Capt. Ward through
this medium aro Senator Howard, Doan Rich
mond. and tho Indian girl Koniudawanda. Cab
bago John’s specialty was in reading character.
Once Cant, ward tufd Mrs. Martin Inal Senator
Howard bad asked him through her to send n
message from the Senator to Charles Howard
with reference to going into tho Arizona coun
try. As a general thing Cant. Ward consulted
Doan Richmond on railroad enterprises,
but sometimes Cabbago John spoko for
Mr. Richmond. In 1872 ho consulted Cab
bago John with reference to getting some
suitable man to unite with bim in putting money
into tbo glass-works. Ono of tho mon suggested
was Tboodoro Loco, who came to Mrs. Martin
and was pent by her to Capt. Ward at Cabbago
John’s direction. Afterward eho hoard Capt.
Ward say that ho thought Mr. Luce was a com
petent and good man for tbo situation. At a
sitting the day boforo bo died Capt. Ward con
sulted Mrs. M. with reference to hie wife and
some difficulties they bad had; also os to Beua
lor Chandler and Tube Owen, tho Captain's
nephew: with regard also to the currency ques
tion, ami an arrangement bo had made to get up
a secret convention, to moot in Lansing on the
12th of January, to sot on foot a campaign in
which tho ladies were to speak; bo said further
that ho h&d been advised by the spirits to accept
the nomination to tbo Sunato himself, and ho
believed ho would. Ho may havo boon at the
house an hour and a half or two hours. It was
a Now Year's Day. Cant. Ward has often con
sulted with Mrs. Martin as to his rolling-mills at
Wyandotte and Chicago. Once bo wanted to
know about Btewart’s taking charge of tbo null
at Wyandotte. John D. Boyle had wanted iron
on crudtt from tbo Chicago Rolling-Mill Compa
ny, and Warn bad asked ncr about that. Once
he asked her about a chemical process recom
mended by Cabbage John. Tho same spirit has
informed Capt. Ward that in a certain railroad
enterprise—she does not know what—ho was
meditating, he would Huocood, but tho company
would bo •• busted." as Capt. told her. and
its funds rendered worthless. Hho knows Bolo
man Gardner, but she never told Aunt Emily
that Gardner had threatened her that if she
didn’t come into court aud testify in this case ho
would charge her with being Capt. Ward’s para
mour, but she had heard of that roport as com
ing from a servant-girl whom site had dis
charged.
A OHOWr TAKES THC KTAND.
Mr. Pond—•• Con you cite an exhibition to
the Jury of a itanco state, and talk German to
thorn. Mrs. Martin?”
Mra. Martin (smiling)—" Yea, air." (.Sonsa
lion iu the audience.]
Mr. Pond—" Talk to them, thou.”
Kira. Martin promptly closed her eyoa, and,
with a slightly shuddering motion, passed into
the trance state. In a moment she yawned, having
the presence of mind, however, or the instinct,
to cover her mouth with a ueatly-glovod hand.
Then aho called "Mario," ana, after a little,
asked, iu language that was partly German, at
least, “ Whoia It that speaks with mo?” Now
the counsel waa nonplussed, and there was a lit*
tie bantering of Mr. i’ond, the Judgo telling him
(hot it was his business to ask her questions,
Tlio Judge also directed the stenographer to
lake (low u her utterances. Mr. Pond asked, in
English, that the spirit which bad possession
of the witness should make himself known,
liut the ghost scorned to reply to this. The
atenograj her, who ta accomplished in Gorman,
asked in a low tone '• Wur helssau sie ?” The
answer was " Andrew Enrthaldrus." Everybody
waa staring, and left the ghost to speak for him
self, which was unsocial to say the least,and the
spirit seemed to regard his treatment in that
way, (or he twice maae a remark iu recognizable
German that was understood to bo the expression
of a wish that some one would speak to him, for
b« couldn't it»y loog. ilut no mors questions
were asked, and after a trance of not more than
five minutes or so, Mm. Martin's oyos gave
symptoms of opening, Plio shuddered violently,
started forward, clutching the air with her hand,
and opened her eyes suddenly with a bewildered
stare like that of a person who hna been started
out of a sound sloop. Tbo following conversa
tion followed this exhibition :
Mr. Pond—" Can younlato wbat has bean tak
log placo i"
Mrs. Martin (solemnly)— *’No, air, I can
not. ’’
Mr. P. (sternly)—" Yon at&to that upon
your oatb ?”
Mra. M.—" Yea, air.”
Mr. P.—"Do you understand the Qomian
language?"
Sira. M.—"No, air t I understand a few
wmls."
"Mr. Cblpman re-examines s Tho proeewi of
psychometrizing letters lies in placing them npon
her forehead, whou alio sees (bo writer and la
ablo to describe bis character.
Mr. Pond asked tbo witnoaa to psychometrize
a letter, nnd she declined in aratbcretaloly man
ner, aaying that nho had an ofllco whore eho
would attend to business. Tho Judge docllocd
to Allow tljo mtroducllou of tbia performance,
and Mr. Pond excepted.
WIM.IAM n. ELT,
the young gentleman who ia engaged to Mins
Mary Watd, wan aworn, and idenliliod the anony
mous letter alleged to have been sent him by
Mra. Ward with the purpose of breaking off tho
match. Ho wan cross-examined somewhat clone
ly an to tho movementn of Capt. Wnrd’n Bonn Im
mediately ou, tho announcomont of his death,
and tho fact was ascortalnud that Milton caaio
up town at onco with Charles and tbo witness,
Mr. Kly, and loft tbo ntbora at tbo Moffat Block,
with Intent to call on n lawyor.
The next witness was
Mllß, JANH PEMINO.
Mrs. Doming liven in Madison, Clinton County,
0. Hho lived in Detroit three years, coming
boro about eighteen yearn ago. She know Capt.
Ward, becoming acquainted with him Rome tbroo
wookn after "ho camo boro. She bad taken up
her residence hero to practice as a clairvoyant.
Hero followed a discussion an to whether tho
witness should bo allowed to testify that Cart.
Ward had nti illogitinmto nnd crazy rod in Obit;,
tho purposo being to show that tbo first Mra.
Ward wan not to be hold ncouunlablo for tho In
sanity of his descendants. Tho form of tho
question was vatied ami tho testimony intro
duced, tho profononls constantly objecting.
Tho witness had known *ncu a child. Ha
mother was Kato Moran. Mrs. Doming bad
taken care of it at her houso. Capt. Ward had
spoken to her about it ns his child. Tho mother
was 1M yearn old at tho time of its birth. Capt.
Ward sent her to Mrs. Homing’s house, in com
pany with T. C. Owen, nnd soudiug a letter say
ing that ho would take care of it. Tho child Is
now at Mrs. Dcmlng’s houso, and in very insane
most of tho Unto, Uuviug boon ho from bis birth.
His mother nan sane.
Tho contestant* proponed to abow by (his same
witness that Capt. Ward was in tho habit of try
ing to buvo thoso in whom ho took an interest
examined clairvoyontly, in order to learn wlmt
lie could about tlicir character, and that ho long
ago attempted tide experiment with the present
Mrs. Waul when alio wan Mies Kate Lyon. Ho
waa niiHucccaaful, because Mies Lyon declined to
see tho clairvoyant.
SivnllotriiiQ- a Cent*
Dr. Gibbs, one of tho editors of IlaWa Journal
of Health, who ia himself an educated physician
and surgeon, while on a railroad train tho other
dav, was consulted hy ono of tho employes on
tho train in relation to bin httlo hoy,
who had that morning swallowed a cent.
“What have you done for him?” asked tho
doctor. “Wo gave him a dose of castor-oil,"
was tho reply. “ Good practice so far; as
soon at you roach homo give him tho whites
of throe raw eggs daily ; lot bis diet ho broad
and milk, and nothing sour." Thu directions
were followed faithfully, the whiles of the
eggs repealed every day, and tho dose of oil at
night; and on tho fourth day the cent was
discharged. It was one of tho now copper coins,
and considerably corroded by tho action of the
gastric Juices. Hinco fatal results often follow
tho swallowing of a copper com, tho Judicious
treatment navtaod in tins instance should bo re
momborod by alt who have tho enro of children.
Tho essential points to bo borne in mind are
simply tbaso: Albumen, or the whites of eggs, a
bland diet free from acids, and castor oil.
