LOCATES HER SWEETHEART.
A Yonng Woman Adopts Male Attire and
' Traces Him from Cincinnati o Mew
Jersey.
New York, March 17. Miss Mary
TVhltmore last night found In New
Brunswick, N. J., under strange and ro
mantic circumstances, her sweetheart,
front whom she was separated a month
ago In consequence of his being obliged
to flee from Cincinnati to avoid arrest
on a charge of robbery. Friday after
noon a slender, refined-looking lau
walked Into the George street police
station. In New Brunswick, and asked
for a night's lodging. He told Police
Sergeant Kuhn. who looked at him with
surprise, that he was tired and cold
with walking, and that he needed rest.
The sergeant told the youth he would
give him a free lodging if he would
rake down the stoves in the station and
carry out the ashes.
While the boy. who appeared to be
about 17 years old. was working Kuhn
watched him, thinking it strange that
a young lad with so refined an appear
ance should appear In the role of a
vagrant. After a few minutes' con
versation with the boy after his work,
Sergeant Kuhn said to him: "I be
lieve you have been lying to me, and
you ure not a boy at all."
The lad looked defiant for a moment,
but under the gasse of the policeman
broke down and confessed. More than
to say that she was Mary Whltmore, of
Cincinnati, the girl refused to make
any explanation about herself. , Ser
geant Kuhn gave her a quarter to get
her supper, and told her if she would
come back afterward and see the chief
she would bo cared for.
After much urging and threatening
Chief of Police Harding persuaded the
girl to tell her story. Miss Whltmore
said that almost a month ago her
sweetheart, John Williams, had been
falsely accused of robbery and had to
leave his home to escape arrest. Hard
ly a week had passed, she said, when
the police learned that Williams was
Innocent and no further effort was made
to And him. He had said something to
his parents about going to see his aunt
at 1415 Fairmont avenue, Philadelphia,
but telegrams sent to that address
failed to bring any word from him.
"When he went away," Miss vVhit
more continued, "he was almost heart
broken, and my constant fear that he
might try to make way with himself
at last made me determined to go after
him. Without saying anything to my
parents, last Wednesday morning, I
took what money I had and started for
Philadelphia. There I learned that
John had started only a few hours be
fore for New York. His aunt said that
he was penniless and discouraged. This
was enoush for me, and I took the
first train for Trenton, hoping to head
him off. I. knew that he would either
get on a freight train or walk. At Tren
ton I exchanged my dress for a cheap
suit of clothes, believing that I would
be more safe In that attire. Then 1
went to Kahway, and began walking
toward New Brunswick, hoping that
by some chance I might meet John.
"About two miles from the place a
gang of rough tramps held me up and
stole every cent I had. I was terribly
frightened, and when they let me go,
hastened on until I reached this city."
The story touched Chief Harding and
he promised the girl to help her all he
could to find her missing sweetheart.
He gave her money to stay at a re
spectable boarding house and told a
policeman to go with her and try to
get her some clothing suited to her sex.
Just as the frail girl and the big police
man were about to leave the station
two young men walked in and one of
them asked for lodging. At the sound
of the voice the girl looked up and
cried for Joy: "Why, It's John! I have
found you at last." It was the young
man she had traveled so many weary
miles to find. He had been tramping
along railroad tracks and stopped for
shelter.
After the two had talked for an hour
In the chief's private room, the police
found lodging for them. This morning
they both started for Philadelphia, their
tickets having been purchased for
them. Williams said he would get
money there, so that he and his sweet
heart could get back to Cincinnati.
INDIAN GIRL DIVORCED.
Husband Brands Her with Skull and
Crossboncs Before Desertion.
Guthrie, O. T.. March 17. The first
divorce ever granted to a Kiowa In
dian, or. In fact, to any member of the
affiliated tribes of the Kiowos, Com
n nones or Caddoes, was granted In the
F.I Keno district court yesterday. The
plaintiff In the case is a full-blooded
Kiuwa gill named Bealhoo Koo. She
alleges that two years ago she was
abducted by a ha If -breed Caddo, named
Walter I'pday. and taken to Fort
Smith, Ark., but she escaped and start
ed for the Darlington Indian agency,
Oklahoma, on foot.. Upday followed
within a few weeks, and later married
the girl, the Indian wedding ceremony
being used.
The first night of the honeymoon he
branded a skull and cmsshones on her
arm and gave her a potion, which she
refused to take and which proved to be
poison. Within twenty-four hours he
deserted her. Recently Mrs. Upday be
came enamored of a Kiowa Indian, and.
upon being told that & marriage could
not take place until a divorce was se
cured, she enlisted the sympathy of
white friends. The court granted the
divorce and restored the girl's maiden
name.

THREE YEARS IN A TRANCE.'

The Patient Aronsod by New Speclfie
for F.pllcpsy.
Indianapolis, Ind., March 17. .Super
intendent Rogers, of the Western In
diana Hospital for the Insane, is treat
ing epileptic patients with a prepara
tion made from the thyroid glands of
sheep. The experiments have been so
satisfactory that he Is preparing to
give the matter publicity through the
Medical Journal.
Two cases, he says, have been remark
able In their results. One was that of
a patient who had lain In a trance for
three years, sleeping soundly at night,
but lying all day with his eyes half
open, evidently in an unconscious state.

Another was an epileptic, who had no
power of locomotion, but could stand In
any position placed for hours at a
time. The epileptic was entirely cured,
and the trance patient Is so far restored
.that he sits up and talks rationally.
On one occasion during the treatment
of these patlenta the medicine gave out
and the patients grew worse, but they
recovered readily when the treatment
was resumed.
THOUSANDS DESTITUTE.
Tropical Fruits Alone Save Many Cuban
Residents from Starvation.
March 17. Some idea of the devastation
already wrought by the war in Cuba
may be gathered from the fact that
fifty-seven towns have been destroyed
In the four western provlnccsi "
. Most of these towns have been burned
by the insurgents for resisting attacks,
or, because they were being used as
depots of supplies for government
troops. In some coses like that of Ca
banas, the troops demolished the town
to trevent the Insurgents from occupy
ing lt Very little of the destruction
has been done wantonly by either side.
In the general devastation of the
Pinar Del Rio tobacco warehouses have
been burned and the Indications are
that the cro? will not be permitted to
reach the coast. Banana and pine ap
ple crops will be Interfered with. Thou
sands of people are destitute, and were
lt'tiot for tropical fruits and the tropi
cal climate, starvation would be theirs.
General Weyler's decree. In ordering
the confiscation of property In Havana
and Pinar Del Rio provinces of all who
fall to report allegiance to Spain has
produced great Indignation. His de
cree against planters and others who
Contribute funds or aid to the Insurg
ents In any way, applies to the case of
American owners of estates, who have
bald money to insurgents for protection
,,to ineir property. General Pando, in
..command of the second army corps at
$anta Clara has Issued a proclamation
.calling upon every citizen to Join the
volunteers and dcelnrlng that all who
are able to carry arms and do not, do
.ao through weakness In their patriotic
sentiment. AH mayors of towns , are
directed to prepare lists of all who are
Indifferent or suspected, and send to
him.
Thursday 110 political prisoners or
suspects arrived In Havana from Santa
Clara, and were sent to Moro Castle.
