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-

leans, and there she was one of the gayest
of the gay, and notorious at the Globe ball

When Rachel, therefore, ran off, |

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. After that

insisting to the last that she was originally
an Loglish bar maid, Minerva Seymour. |
For over ten months the court has heen bus-
| ily engaged in hearing testimony about her
i career, and has brought out the facts here

Properties of X Rays.
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.

who keeps her husband awake half the
night coaxing him for a new bicycle.”

“Yes ; she’s my wife.”

ik THE LIFE
STEATHILY BUT STEADILY, AND THE SYS-
TEM CANNOT STAND IT LONG.
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.”
