op rE -— A STRANGE STORY ENDED. ‘ Were Fanny Sweet and Rachel Brown the Same Per- son.—She Lived a Double Life.—A Court Decides They Were the Same and Thus One Woman Has Fastened Upon Her Many Adventures.—Romance as Weli as Tragedy. The contest over the succession of Fanny Sweet Mills, upon which the civil district court of Louisiana passed finally on Tues- day, December 8, brought to light a series of stories so marvelous that a novelist would be accused of sensationalism if he gave them in any romance. On January 6, 1896, Mrs. Wm. R. Mills died in New York at the age of 70. She was the widow of one of the most distinguished members of the New Orleans bar, who had been the leading counsel in the famous Myra Clark Gaines case, which resulted in the city’s paying $2,000.000 to the Gaines heirs. Mill's fee in this case was one of the largest ever paid and made him independ- * ently rich, but he died soon after his suc- cess, leaving all his property to his wife. Every one in New Orleans knew who she was, the notorious Fanny Sweet, who for thirty years had been the wildest weman in the city. whose freaks, follies and wild escapades had heen one long succession of adventures. She was a woman of 54 when she met Mills, but such was the power she exerted over men that this lawyer of fine family and of high social standing and reputation av the bar made her his wife. She was 70 vears old when she died, and her death was a miserable enough ending even for a life so stained with sin and crime. Mrs. Mills was a wealthy woman, vet died of starvation.” She bad $100,000 in bonds in her armoire, but died of lack of «food. For three years before her death she was blind, but she was so filled with fear that some oue would rob her of her money that she lived alone. She was taken sick, and, having no one to call the doctor or get her assistance or food, she lay upon the floor until she died of starvation. She was found dead by a neighbor. Her death revealed-the romance of her life and 2 sue- cesston of tragedies. Mrs. Mills, or Fanny Sweet, made a number of wills just before she died, in which she left her money to several con- spicuous men in New Orleans. Most of them: would have gladly foregone the money to aveid the notoriety. She reyok- ed all her wills just before her death and died intestate. The state of Louisiana laid claim to the estate and seemed likely to get it, when suddenly two heirs appeared—Charles C. Brown, a respectable lawyer of Sacramen- to, Cal.. and Mrs. Mary McVey, an aged widow, of Huntington, W. Va., who claim- ed that Mrs. Mills or Fanny Sweet was their sister, Rachel Brown. It seemed a thoroughly improbable tale, forthe state of Lousiana had traced back Fanny Sweet's history and found that she was Minerva Seymour, an English bar maid, born in London in 1826. The evidence that Fanny Sweet was Minerva Seymour seemed com- plete and indisputable. She herself so de- clared repeatedly, so swore in her will, in her marriage certificate, and in her rela- tions, however confidential with her law- yers, she told the same story. She was born in London, she said, of good parent- age, but had been left an orphan when young, had run away from her guardian, grown up among the slums of Liverpool, had become a bar maid there, and had come over to the United States in 1846, when 20 years old. Arriving in New York in the ship Waterloo, commanded by Captain Allen, the state found several of her fellow travelers on the voyage who readily identi- fied Minerva Seymour with Fanny Sweet. She spoke, they said, with a marked cock- ney accent. Here comes in the extraordinary and in- comprehensible part of the story, for the .claimants to the estate declare that Fanny .Sweet was their sister, Rachel Brown, a native of Rome, Lawrence county, O., and descended from an old Virginia family ;and ‘the court has decided, in spite of the fre- quent declaratiods of Fanny Sweet herself and of her friends, lawyers and acquaint- ances, in spite of her wills and her marri- .age certificate, even in spite of her cockney accent and her landing in this country from Liverpool in 1846, that Fanny Sweet was Rachel Brown, and it has awarded all her property to the California and West Vir ginia claimants. The court was compelled to accept Minerva Seymour episode as true —it was so clearly proved—but passed it over as inexplicable, like the many meta- morphoses which Fanny Sweet indulged in | later in her life. Rachel Brown was born in 1326 in Rome, (0. She ran away from home when 1% years old and was completely lost sight of for years, but this created. no surprise, for it seems to have been the habit of the Brown family to run away. Her eldest brother, James, ran away a few years be- fore, and was never heard of afterward. Her eldest sister, Sarah, also disappeared, turned np years afterward in California, after marriage and ~dventure enough to fill a hook. it was regarded perfectly natural, and no one troubled himself about» her. The claimants to the succession have tried to follow the career of the runaway girl, but there are many long breaks in their records. They frankly admit that there are no traces | , of for two years, 1344 to 1846. No one has ever been found who saw or heard of her during that period. ‘That she became Fanny Sweet afterward is insisted, and it is equally clear that Minerva Seymour was also Fanny Sweet. The court fought shy of this dilemma. There is but one expr na- tion of it. The Ohio girl found her way to London in some way, picked up the cock- ney dialect, and picked it up so successful ly that she never lost it afterward. There are some absurdities about this theory, but it is the only possible one. It may been Rachel Brown’siden of completely de- stroying her former identity and cutting | herself off from ‘her relatives. She played the part well if this theory is correct, and vet her relatives got her money after all. Her brother and sister drop her career in 1544 and take it up again in 1346, when the | given, but there are hundreds of other in- multiplicity of | names caused much confusion landed from She drifted from | New York to New Orleans with a man | named Smith, and when she landed in the Crescent City she was Fanny Smith, n- stead of either Rachel Brown or Minerva Smith married her in New Or- leans, and there she was one of the gayest of the gay, and notorious at the Globe ball room as one of the wildest of the dancers. | It was during the flush times of the Cres- cent City, when money was plenty and morals at a low ebb, and when, amid the | fevers that then raged there. the universal girl whose subsequent the steamer Waterloo. Seymour. motto was: ‘A short life but a merry one.” It was a short life for Smith, who died of the yellow fever a year after his marriage, leaving a widow of 21 with noth- | When Rachel, therefore, ran off, | have | i ing in the world. New Orleans, lively as it then was, was too tame for the widow. She drifted down to South America, and when the discovery of gold in California started the wild rush to the Pacific coast Fanny Smith was among the first pioneers. She fitted into the wild civilization of the mining camps, and was the belle of Sacra- mento. She was the mistress of Rube Raines, who ran the biggest gambling sa- loon in Sacramento, El Dorado, while she was the head of a dance house, the palace. Fanny Raines, as she was now known, was perhaps as desperate and as quick with her gun as any man in California. She was un- fortunate in using it, however, for one of her first victims was Albert Putnam, one of the most reputable citizens of Sacramento. It was at the time that the law and order movement in California was organizing, when the people of the Pacific coast had grown tired of the crimes committed there, and of being ruled and domineered over by gamblers, murderers, and blacklegs. Mr. Putnam was one of those who took a lead in the movement for peace and order and when he was killed by the mistress of one of the worst gamblers in the town, the tragedy so stirred public sentiment that there seemed every probability that Fanny Raines. in spite of her sex, would be lynch- ed, but she had friends in Sacramento, and, strange to say, she ran across her missing sister, Sarah, there who, after marrying men named Swartout, McCormick and Green was then living in California, under the alias of Leah Duell. Her iriends hurri- ed her abroad a boat, got her away from Sacramento before the lynchers could find her, and she started for new fields, going first to Acapulco, Mexico, then to Panama, | where she met Abraham Hinckley, of New | York, who was engaged in business there. He was infatuated with the. woman, and took her to New York where he married | | her, and she dropped the names of Minerva | Seymour and Fanny Smith and became | | Maria Hinckley. She enjoyed her second | | marriage hut a year. She visited her hus- | band in Panama, travelled to Cuba and other countries and finally wound up in New Orleans, where she seemed to have 4 grown tired of manied life, for she hrought | suit for divorce and got it. | Then followed a curious episode in: her | i life which was largely responsible for the | decision of the court giving her property to the Brown heirs. Maria Hinckley, after wandering around the world, and changing her name at every place to which she went, after going through the most reiarkable proceedings to cover up her past and lose her original name. returned to Rome, O., her birthplace, after an absence of thirteen years. She came back as a respectable and well-to-do widow, to tind her mother dead. She built a handsome and expensive monu- ment over her mother’s grave, on which she had carved an entire poem, written by herself. Whether she was tired of her life of wandering and adventure and wanted to settle down to a quiet, respectable life, no one except herself could ever say. She un- fortunately got into a quarrel with her brother-in-law, McVey, whose wife got half her succession. » There were recriminations in which Mrs. Maria Hinckley was gener- ally successful, but they so disgusted her with her family that she again shook the dust from her feet and came back to New Orleans, where she changed her name and became Fanny Sweet. . It was just as the civil war broke upon the country. Willis G. Stephens secured the contract from the confederate govern- ment to supply the trans-Mississippi de- partment with gunpowder. He was to buy it abroad, and started for Europe via Mex- ico, as New Orleans was then blockaded. He had as partners in the business young Fred Sweet and a leading merchant of New Orleans. After traveling through Texas the merchant was surprised to find that Fred was a woman, in fact was Fannie Sweet, who found that male dress suited to her adventures, and who in after life went as often in trousers as in petticoats. The confederate agents got as far as the Rio Grande, where Stevens was taken danger- ously ill, and was nursed by Fannie Sweet. The nursing did not seem to agree with him, and when he died and Fanny came into most of his property she was publicly accused of murdering him ; but in those times of civil war the criminal courts were practically suspended, and although the charge of murder was made repeatedly, Fanny Sweet was never molested. She came back to New Orleans, said that Ste- vens was largely indebted to her, brought suit against his heirs, and secured a large part of his succession. From that time to her death Fanny Sweet never left New Orleans. She came a part of its criminal history. She built on the famous shell road, just on the edge of the city, a palatial mansion, surrounded by the bhandsomest gardens. There the wildest revelries went { on, and the police were frequently called on to restore order ; but she had friends and influences and defied all police regula- tions. Nothing afforded her more satistac- | tion. than to drive in a handsome carriage through the city. dressed in male attire, fir- ing her revolver in the air. This, however, was mere trifling, and there were several more serious episodes in her career at the | shell road house. A young man of con- | spicious family was murdered in her gar-- den. Then, a young woman was Killed | there, and there were whispers of Fanny's wild jealously and ungevernabie temper and her guickness to use her gun, but ic was during a period of the grossest police corruption, and no one cared to trifle with “Fanny, and the murder was never made “public ; but it was returned as a suicide. | | Sixteen years ago Fanny Sweet then well | beyond tifty, farther astonished the world | by marrying the distinguished lawyer, | i William R. Mills. The marriage shocked | Mill’s friends but it seemed to have heen a | | happy one, for when-he died, eleven years afterward, he Jeft his entire property to ‘his beloved wife,”” whom he styles “Fanny | Minerva Seymour Hinckley,’ including a large proportion of her aliases.

Efforts to Determine the Effect of the Rays Upon the Human System—Prof. Lannelongue Believes That the X Rays Discoveries Will Change the Treat- ment of Sunstroke. Discoveries of the properties of the X rays go on apace, in Paris, and the scien- tific world is watching with the closest in- terest the experiments that are being made to determine the effect of the rays upon the human system. At a meeting of the Acad- emy of Sciences recently there was a dis- cussion of the latest X rays phenomena, which was participated in by several au- thorities. Prof. Sorel of the Havre Lyceum declar- ed that he had found danger in_the use of the rays, they having caused in many per- sons violent inflammation of the lungs. Prof. Crookes, the inventor of the tubes bearing his name, which are used in de- veloping the rays, was present and took part in the discussion. He said that the effect of the rays was varied, and that some patients like the burning sensation pro- duced by them. Prof. Lannelongue, a distinguished French surgeon, gave an extremely inter- esting account of a phenomenon he had re- cently witnessed. He said that a number of children were playing in a courtyard in the shadow of a wall, the top of which was under strong sunlight. Suddenly several of the children began to act in a most pe- culiar manner, dancing around, each with his hand on his head, and crying out : “My head burns.”’ : Prof. Lannelongue examined the heads of | the children and found blisters on their scalps. In trying to account to himself for the phenomencen he wondered if the blist- ers had been produced hy X rays projected from the top of the wall. He instituted in his laboratory a series of experiments upon several persons. Some of these when ex- posed to the action of the rays were pro- tected by strontium glass. These were not ‘affected, but the other persons experiment- | ed upon who were not similarly protected were burned as the children had been. Prof. Lannelongue declare that he be- lieved that X rays discoveries would cause ‘a change to be made in the whole treat- ment of sunstroke. He added that the ancient Greeks were no fools wheif they covered their heads with brass helmets and their chests and backs with light metal cuirasses, which were impervious to X rays. Perhaps an anti-sunstroke helmet, he concluded, would be made in the future of strontium glass. ——*“I suppose you've got rid of the girl in the next room who played the piano ?’’ “Yes but there’s a woman in there now who keeps her husband awake half the night coaxing him for a new bicycle.” “Do you know the woman ?”’ “Yes ; she’s my wife.” ——“I hold to the theory thata man has the right'to do what he pleases with his own money.” “Of course you do.

There is no saying more true of any dis- ease than of Kidney Disease, that ‘you don’t know you have it, ’till it has you.” It begins in such a way that you don’t care about it.”’ It is “only a slight back- ache,” and '*will go away.” But it don’t. It stays right there, and you soon learn it is a peculiar ache and seems to be ver, deep seated. Well, it is. It is in the kid- neys agd it will stay there unless cured and nag the life out in its sapping and ainful way. We simply say to you, sto) 1t now, and permanently. When the bac aches is the time to do it easiest and best. A little fire is put out easier than a big one. First symptoms are more easily eradicated than chronic conditions. Doan’s Kidney Pills never fail in Kidney co plaints, in any stage. but we wish we might so im- press the fact that backache, is kidney ache, that all mav know the fact while it only takes a few doses to cure. We are a nation of newspaper readers, and rapidly learn the matters of every day interest. It is so in Pottsville, and the conditions are bettered whenever Doan’s Kidney Pills are known. Mr, A. J. Weber, of 124 Academy St. Wilkesbarre, gives his opin- ion of Doan's Kidney Pills. To use Mr. Weber's own words he said: ‘I was troubled very badly for about a year. At times I had sharp pains in the small of the back directly over and in the kidneys. They also extended up the back and caused severe headaches, a ‘catch in the back’ as it were, was often prevalent when stooping over or bending or lifting, or when 1 caught a cold, and colds always made me worse, affecting urination. I be- gan taking Doan’s Kidney Pills, and felt improved after three or four doses, and they helped r ght along until I got entire ly over it. I shall always recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills to others. Iam satis- fied they are a good remedy, and shall take them again if occasion requires it.” For sale by all dealers—price, 50 cents. Mailed by Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo N.
