HE SLEEPS FOR DAYS.
Wonderful Manifestation of the Power
of tho Sages.
The Snces, who will appear at the
Academy of Music during the week be
ginning May 1!, are creating a pro
found sensation In Heading, where they
are now npppnring. The Herald of that
city, in sneaking of a man whom they
keep in hypnotic sleep, says:
Milton Hallsinger, n resident of
Johnstown, this state, 24 years of nge,
joined the Sages about six months ago.
He has slept continuously four days at
Montreal, four days at Pittsburg, and
two days here. Before taking a sleep
he eats n breakfast of dry toast, one
soft boiled egg and a glass of milk, and
nothing until he is awukened. His loss
in weight varleB from nine to twelve
pounds. He was hypnotized Monday
at 10 p. m. and awakened at 10 last
night. Yesterday afternoon ho was
shaved by Frank Terry, who says he
noticed no feeling by the subject more
than if he were a corpse.
"At 10.10 Mr. Hallsinger was awak
ened on the Academy stage. He made
several violent muscular movements of
the lower limbs and body, requiring
four men to hold him. He looked
dazed, and in a weak and uncertain
trend walked to (he dressing room.
where he was given a thorough rub
bing, u glass of hot water and some
toast. His pulse was 65, given by Drs.
ithoads and Hainan, who were on the
stage when Sage awakened Hallsinger."

AFTERNOON SESSION.
The first business of classls in the af
ternoon was the report of the standing
committee on overtures. This had ref
erence to the application of a number of
churches and other religious organiza
tions for aid from the classls. The ap
peals were read and referred to the
committees on missions.
Rev. J. w. Knoffenberger. president
of the Allentown college for women,
arrived in tho afternoon and was given
a seat as an advisory member and was
given the privilege of addressing the
classls.
The committee consisting of Rev. W.
H. Stubbleblne. Rev. F. H. Ruloff and
Rev. I. A. Eschback, to whom had been
referred the matter of giving a deliver
ance In regard to the use of the wafer
In the sacrament of the Lord's sunuer.
submitted the following report;
"wnereas, It has been the universal
custom and practice of the Reformed
church to administer the sacrament of
the Lord's supper in accordance with
the method of Its Institution by our
Lord Jesus Christ, wherein He says In
Luke xxll:19, 'And He took bread and
brake It and gave It unto them, saying,
"This is My body which is given for
you; this do in remembrance of Me."
"Whereas, a departure from this cus
tom Is a violation of the doctrine and
practice of the Reformed church,
"Resolved, that all ministers within
the bounds of the Wyoming Claasls be
nnd are hereby Instructed to abstain
from administering the acrament In
any other way than the time honored
and blessed way of our Lord nnd prac
ticed by the Reformed church."
CAUSED SOME DISCUSSION.
This report was brought out through
the Issue raised with reference to the
substitution of wafers for bread In the
communion service as a matter of ex
pediency at times. Some congregations
are anxious to have the wafer used In
stead of bread; this is not true so much
of certain congregations In the classls
us It is of certain. parts of the congre
gations. The report, of the committee
was taken up and discussed, during
which it was generally agreed that to
adopt the resolution would be acting
counter to tne desires of some members
of the Reformed church, who prefer
waters to ureau in the eommunlon ser
vice. Not to do anything which might tend
10 do too strict altogether, the report
was voted down with the proviso that
the pastors discourage the use of wafers
and make use of them only In enses of
aosoiute necessity, bick people for In
stance.
The request of St. John's Reformed
church of Freeland for the loan of $1,600
ror the erection of a parsonage was al
lowed by the classls.
At the evening session Rev. J. n.
Kershner and Rev. A. Houtz spoke in
behalf of foreign .missions. The clasBis
will adjourn this morning.

J. J. McDermott, proprietor of Mac's

his arm three large pieces of flesh
about fourteen inches long and three
Inches wide to graft Into the nnklo of
Joseph Moore, Mr. McDermott's step
brother.
Mr. Moore had his ankle seriously In
jured at the Plttston depot on March
If. At first It was thought lmpoasi
ble to save the Injured mumber but by
careiui treatment ami watenru ness on
the part of the nurses, it is believed
that the -patient will be about in a
short time.
Mr. McDermott weighs about 200

0T1IER HEADS WILL DROP.
Mayor Bailey Says Ho Will Send In Mora
Arpaintmcnts and Dismissals at the
Next Meeting of Select Connciu'
More are to follow.
Mayor Bailey stated to a Tribune re
porter yesterday that at the next meet
ing of select council he will send In the
names of six men to succeed the pres
ent assistant chief engineers and also
a few more police appointments. Who
the intended victims ure he would not
divulge.
None of the new appointees assumed
office yesterday. Chief Hlckcy said he
did not know when he would take hold
but thought It probable that he would
be at the head of the department Mon
day. HAVE NOT AS YET ACCEPTED.
Neither Holding nor Taylor put in an
appearance at headquarters yesterday,
although Secretary Beamish, by in
structions of the mayor, sent them of
ficial notification of their appointment
and confirmation. Mayor Bailey said
ho had not received any word from
either of them.
i'eter Hurrgerty, the other new pa
trolman, reported and had hia measure
taken lor a uniform. He is &! years
of age, stands ft feet 11 Inches In his
Blockings, weighs 210 pounds, wears a

nthletlc. He is tho champion shot and
stone putter of this region, and has
won many prizes in this and other lines
of sport. He resigns a position of fore
man In the heating department at mo
south mill to go on the force.
QUESTION OF ELIGIBILITY.
There wns some discussion as to tho
eligibility of Mr. Hlckey for the of
fice of chief of tire department as tnere
Is a clause In the Act of 1889 which
states that no councilman is eligible to
any office during the term for which he
is elected.
All doubt on this score, however, was
removed by an opinion from City So
licitor Torrey ttmt olllces such, as city
clerk, city solicitor and city engineer
are classed in the category "within the
gift of the councils" and not olllces
ke that of chief of the fire depart
ment, which are within the gift of the
mayor and concerning which, councils
have only a ratifying voice.
THE VOLUNTEERS UNIFORM.
Makos Its rirst Appearance on the
Streets of Scranton.
Tho first uniform of the new Ameri
can Volunteers to bo Been In this city
was worn yesterday about the streets
by Lieutenant Green, well known in the
central city as the War Cry girl. She
is now a lieutenant In the new move
ment and hoa charge of the Volunteer's
Gazette, the'ofiielal' organ.
The costume isof cadet blue flannel,
with plain skirt, plaited waist, cape of
the same material and a plain bonnctt
to match. Only one color enters into
the entire ciwtume and It Is by far
more becoming and neater than the
red jersey, blue skirt and showy poke
bonnet of tho old organization. A sil
ver budge worn as a brooch Is the only
thing to designate the order to which
the wearer of the uniform belongs.
The current b'sue of the Gazette,
which Is No. 4, contains a reproduction
of the New York Herald's Illustrations
of the Carnegie Hall demonstration, In
which Colonel Watklns and Captain
Mnsland are pictured alongside of Mr.
and Mrs. Balllngton Booth.
CAME DOWN FOR A LARK.
That is tho Opinion of the Mother of One
of tho Ulnghamton Girls.
Susan Tnlly and Mary Rourke, the
two Binghamton girls arrested at the
Instance of Proprietor T. C. Melvin, of
the St. Charles, for defrauding a board
bill, were given a hearing by Alder
man Millar yesterday morning and com
mitted to the county Jail.
During tho afternoon . the Rourke
girl's mother came down from' Bing-'
hamtnn and took steps to have her
daughter sent to the House of the Good
Shepherd. She stated that her daugh
ter works out, and while she was aware
that she was not ns demure as she
might lie she had no Idea that she would
be guilty of any-such escapade as this)
one.
She wns not aware of her daughter's
absence from Binghamton until she re
ceived a telegram from Alderman Mil
lar yesterday. She believes that the
girls had no other purpose in coming to
this city then to have a big lark and
then steal bnck to Binghamton. The
Tully girl, who is the older of the pair,
she would have nothing to say about,
except that she had respectable par
ents. DOINGS OF THE POLICE.

SHE SWALLOWED A MOOSE
loisgal Experience of Mrs. Martin
. Monahan, of I'rice Street.
RELIEVED OP IT YESTERDAY
Ejected from Her Stomach tho Body of
the Moaso She Gulped Down Three
Weeks Ago-Uow It All
Occurred.
i
Mrs. Martin Monahan, of 1.609 Price
street, yesterday morning ejected from
her stomach the almost wholly Intact
body of a full-tizcd mouse, which has
been causing her much pain and worry
for the past three weeks.
One nltiht about three weeks ago
she doe not remember the exact date
Mrs, Monahan woke from her sleep
with a choking sensation and before
coming to full use of her faculties felt
herself gulping down some large object.
She was greatly alarmed and racked
her brain for some explanation of the
strange happening. After thinking
deeply for some time she recollected
that the first thing that she realized
upon beginning to awake was that
something ran across her face which
caused her to half-unconsclously make
a pass with her hand to brush It off.
The next thing she remembers Is that
she was more fully awakened by the
choking sensation and subsequent gulp
ing which relieved It.
She wns not able to explain the In
cident until yesterday, when her stom
ach yielded up a good-sized mouse,
dead, of course, but only a little the
worse for wear.
There Is not the slightest possibility of
confounding the mouse with a piece- of
cheese, coagulated milk or any other
such substance as was the case of the
Providence fish story, it Is a mouse,
sure enough, and that It went through
all that Mrs. Monahan claims It did,
is not to be gainsaid. Mrs. Monahan is
a large woman of middle age, married
and the mother of a lurge family.
The explanation she offers Is that she
was snoring on the night when her odd
exierlenee began nnd his mouseshio
becoming startled by her attempt to
brush him away Jumped into the first
aperture he met, which, unfortunately
was her mouth and went to his death
and to cause worry and pain.
