Editor Swallow's wre3tle with the
Legislature is becoming interesting,
and the proper tLing for the Legis
lature to do is to give the Doctor the
right kind of a chance. His charges
relate to public affair and tho peo
ple will be satisfied with nothiHg
short of fair and open treatment in
every particular. The public had
been made to believe that the fire
that burned the Capitol building or
igic&ted between ceilings, but laat
week, defuro tho LegielahTo investi
gating committee, Charles Stock, a
firemm, testified, that he found fire
in a closet in the cellar of the build
ing. Stand back, fair play, give the
Doctor a chance.
The joint committee of tho Lcgi.
laiure inveatigating the H.u:i:!)urg
capitol fire, nsnde several eff.ri Ut
weak to get Editor Swallow to give the
names of persons who gave him in
formation as to crooked ways cn
capitol hill but he steadily refused,
because of the libel suite pending
against him. Ho however, declared,
that a woman who he had summoned
as a witness, was turned from him
by the present of a gold watch and
that another witness had been offer
ed three hundred dollars. Charles
Stock, a fireman, one of the Doctor's
w tnesses, told about cutting into the
cellar of the burning Capitol and
finding a closet on fire. He thought
this was evidence that the place had
uten urea by incendiaries. All
official accounts at the time of
fire had located the origin of
flamm at tho back and base of
the
the

open hearth grate in the Lieutenant
Governor i room on the second floor.
The democratic brethren, are re
joicing over the fact, that at tho late
municipal election in Chicago, the
democrats circled their mayor by a
targe majority. The election has no
significance relative to national poli
tics. The matter that caused., the
change in (he voting since last fall
was a local matter. It was the ques
tion of drink. The Republicans have
been trying to draw the lines on the
drinking habit and many of their
well meanirg men went so far as to
favor tho abo'iticn of the liquor
traffic. There is a large percentage
of ,;eop!e in.Chicagj w ho occasionally
take a drink, but are not habitual
driLkers and never drink to intoxica
tion, thej- despise the man who de
bau-hts b;'m.elf ss a drunkard. The
men who take a drink occasionally
because they believe it is good for
their health, aro tb.3 mr.a who turred
their votes against the republican
candidate for mayorship of Chicago.
They are a fines of men who believe
tho liquor abolitionist is as great a
crank a3 the man who drinks to
t'runkeness. So then the demoratic
brethren who have b?cn drawing
consoluii-jn from ths Chicago election
and rolling it as a sweet morsel ua-
nder tiicir tongue are learning that)
it was the liquor question and not
the politic.il question that defeated
tho republican candidate for mayor.

White Cannibals.
You have never read such a hor
rible story as told in MoClart's Times
oi April 6: from tho era of Magar
gee, a writer for the Times, under the
head of "Ssen and Heard in many
places." alargargeo says:
Hera is a singular query:
Dear Seen and Heard Duriag a
recent discussion in a debating so
ciety, of which I am a member, it
was stated, parenthetically, that can
nibalism has ever been confined to
8.ivag races. I contend that there
is no case oa record where white
men ale the fl.ab. of their fellows ex
cept when driven to i-ucb a dreadful
extremity by the pangs of overpower
irghungrT; for it Btascc, as was lh
case ia the Arctic r?i'3u among th

Was I right er wrong? a. r. h.
Philadelaala, April 3rd, 1897.
Careful reading oa the subject re
ferred to in the above mis-dvi led at
at first to the conclusion that tho cor
respondent was right, until in a law
yer's ofii'je the narrator, in a collec
tion of remarkable criminal triads,
happened across the most revelling
tale he has ever read and whi.h
proves that A F. L. ia wrong.
History contains no parallel to the
horrible cruelties and robbsries that
were committed by one Sawney
Beaue. a Seotc-bma., ia t se reign of
King James the First, bef ore that
monaich came to the crown of Eng
land by the death of Queen Elizabeth.
Sawney Besne was born abouh eight
or nine miles eastward of the city of
Edinburg, in th county of East of
Lothian, of parents who went hed
ging and ditching for their daily
bread and who brought up their
children to the same oenpation. As
he grew up, his disposition to idle
ness not permitting him to foliow an
honorable employment, he left his
father and mother and ran into the
country, where, following a most
wicked course of life and taking up
with a womon as vicious as himself,
they made their abode in a rock by
the seaside, on the shores of Shire
Galloway, where they lived for up
ward of twenty-five years. During
that time they bad boih children and
grand children, whom they brought
up so wickedly that they never separ
ated, kept no other company and sup
ported themselves entirely by rob
biug. What was worst, they never
committed a robbery without a mur
der. They never frequented any
market for provisions, but as soon as
they murdered any man, woman or
child, thev did not leave the body
bhinJ, bnt carried it to their den,
where cu'ting it up into quarters,
they would pickle them and live up
on human fliesh till they got auothtr
prey of the eime kind. But they
had generally more thsn they could
consume, and in tbe night time, but
at a grea!-. distanoo from their san- j
guinary mansion, thsy threw legs I
and anus aad some of tbos; they had
kiibd into tbe sen. wbica the tide I
frequently cast up at several puta of
tie country, to the great aei-inish-ment
of the behol.-Jers. Persona who
went about their lawful occupations
fell often into the bands of these
merciless canibals and never returned
home again.
This ra3 a gf-neral outcry n
moug their friends and relatives, in
so mueh that the whole country was
alarmed at snch a great and myster
ious loss of people, which frequently
happened in traveling into the weet
of Scotland. .Private spies were sent
out into ail parts, to find out. if pos
sible how these ucexplainable events
happened. For a length of titn
their strictest searches and inquiries
were to no purpose. However, sever
al honest travelers were tafceu upon
suspicion od wrongly "hanged upon
upon bre circumstances, besides
several innocent inn keep9rt, who
were also executed for no other rea
eon than that persons who had been
thus !ost were known to nave ia:n in
their houses and were s jppasod to
have been robbed and murdered by
them and their bodies privately bur
ried in obscure nlaces. To such an
extent was tbis carried f'lat several
in-keeners on the western road of
Scotland abandoned their busine
for fear of being nude like examples
and followed other employments, eo
that travelers were put to many in
conveniences for want of accommo
dations. However, after several had
betn executed and no one made any
confession on th gallows, but all de
clared that the were innocent of th
crimes for which thev died, this rig
orous way of proceeding was given
up.
Sawney Beano, with his wife, chil
dren and grand children, still pur
sued their barbarous actions with
impunity. Being somewhat numer
ous, thsy wonld aMack four, five or
tlx men ttgether if they were on foot
As for horsemen, two were the most
they would set on, and then with
such caution that an r.mbuscads was
laid to secure them, ride which way
the wcnld, provided that one or both
madi their escapo from the first as
sailant'. The place was solitary
where theso cannibals lived, and
when the tide came up, the water
ro:!e nearly two hundred yards into
their subterrauean habitation, which
reached almost a mile underground.
Conseqcenlly, if thev were ever seen
thereabouts by any person, it was not
in the least suspected thahsny human
beings resided in such a dismal place.
Tho number of people they had killed
was not exactly known, but it was
reckoned that in tho twenty-five
years that they had continued their
human slaughters they had washed
their hands in the blood of about one
thousand men, women and children.
At last the discovery of the canni
bals was thus made: A man and his
wife, the latter behind her spouse on
tbe same hors, coming one evening
from a fair, fell into the ambuscade
of these merciless wretchos, who at
tack them in tbe most furious man
ner. The man, to save himself as
weli as he could, fought bravely
against them with sword and pistol,
riding some of them down by main
force of his horse, from which his wife
in the conflict fell off. She was in
stantly murdered before the husband's
facp, and tho female cannibals forth
with cut her throat, sucking the
j blood with as great a gusto as if it
! had been wine. ' They even disem
boweled her and pulled oat all her
made tbe poor man make a still
moie obstinate resistance, he expec
ting the same fate if he fed into i he
bands of his assailants. Providen
tially it happened that about twtu j
or wirty passengers were riding tb-
way from the same fair which he hid
attended, aad Sawney Betue and 1 I
blocd thirsty claa withdrew, making
the best cf their way through a sol
tarv wood an.l .rBt.Jr f?l,i, .Lr-.
J
The attacked man, who was the
first to escape alive after foiling into
the hands of the canibals, told the
passengers what hod happened and
showed them tbo Moody spectacle of
bis wh, wbooi the murderers bad
dragged some distance oflf.

M'gitt struck them all with stupefac
tion and amazement. They carried
him to Glag3w, aud, relating the
m liter to the provost of that city, he
immediitely sejt to the King con
csreing the matter. In three or
four days King James cam in per
son to where the Bans had ihe'r
abDdo, he being desirous of seeing
the apprehension of tbe viliiau who
for so many years had been the psut
of tbo western part of bis kingdom
A body of about four hundied men
set out on horseback with the King,
who bad several bloodhounds with
him, and went with the bereft hus
band to the woods near which ha bad
been attacked, but fjuid no eius cf
any habitation whatever. They fc
lowed a path which led down the sea-
sidi. Tbe tide was out. Gaing a -
long tbe shore, they passed by tho
cava of Siwney Baane without taking
any notice of it aa a place of habita
tion until some of tbe bloodhound?,
running into it and setting up a
howling and yelping, the King and
his attendants came back and looked
into it. Seeing uothing on account
of the darkres?, torches were sent
for, and a great many men ventured
into the cave. There were several
intricate turnings and windings in
this private recess from mankind,
yet at last they came to the appart
ments of Sawuey Beaue, where, to
their great surprise, tbey beheld tho
legs, arms, thighi, hands and feet of
men, Women and children hung up
I ke dried beef and some limbs lying
ia pickle. In addition to these, tbern
wa a great mass of money, both gold
an silver, watches, rings, swords, pis
tol and a great quantity of cloths,
both linen and wouien, and infioit
other thiogrt. which had been stolen
from those tho cannibals had mur
dered. All tho plunder was siezsd and the
men took what human flesh they
could find and bnrried it in the sands
and Wrought out Sawney Beane and
his murderous family, which, beside
himself, consisted of his wife, eight
sons, six diughtrrs, eighteen grand
socs and fourteen granddaughters.
Tbey were all pinion el and carried
t Edinburgh. All tbo country, cs
they passed alonpr. fl jcked in multi
tude to see this cursed tribe. When
t iey arrived af. their journey's eud
they were put into fie tolbjot'a or

Gonld knpt a balance of some $30,000
in the Teutn Isatioual bank for bis per
sonal account, household exiicnses, eta
Bi'ing called west on a mission that
lasted several weeks, he left his check
book locked in the safe drawer, to which
Fisk had a key. Iii the office was a
clever yoang clerk whom Fisk had
caught in the act of imitating his and
Uoulil 8 signatures, the imitation of
Gould's being a facsimile. Within iui
hour after the wizard's departure check
book and clerk were together under
Fisk's supervision, and at his instiga
tion more than a dozen blank checks
were signed with tho name cf Jay
Gould, aud in the course of a month
tho $30,000 had disappeared, Fisk be
ing ut that time in the clutches of Josie
Mansfield.
On the very day of Gould's return
the bank sent a notice of overdraft. The
little man nearly fainted. He had sev
eral fits. His excitement waa intense.
He declared that there was a conspiracy
to ruin him. He hastened to the bank,
and tliey showed him the checks, signed
by himself they did not doubt, and he
raved and tore his hair. Nor could ho
doubt the signature. It was genuine,
even iu his own eyes. A rigid investiga
tion was started, which Fisk put aa
end to by informinat Gonld, with many
a poke in the ribs, that he had drawn
and used the money.
"Did Fisk make good?" an innocent
aeked when the story was told.
"Return the $30,000?" was the reply.
If Fisk had returned it, Wall street

Channel Island DrapotUm.
It is not generally known that some
thing approaching a military despotism
prevails in the Channel islands. Every
male adult born in Guernsey or Jersey
has to serve for a long term of years in
the militia, 15 years being the period
in Guernsey.
In addition to thin, all maloa nf 5V"
years of age and under, of whatever na
tionality, who reside in that island for
a year and a clay continuously have to
enter the militia and serve for 15 years,
or suffer flue, imprisonment or expul
sion. During the last two or three years a
great number or young Englishmen
have settled in Guernsey to go into the
tomato raising imlustry.
In criier to avoid tho military service
imposed by tho "states" as the gov
ciniui'iit of Gaeruticy is called thoy
make frequent trips outside their juris
diction either to England or to Jersey

MOVING A HOUSE.
When the present court house was
l uilt, almost a quarter of a century
a?, a large frame hcuss, was erect
ed on the north east corner of tbe
court bouse square, for county office
purposes. Protkonoiarv's effice, Reg
ister and Record9r's office, Sheriff's
and Treasurer's office. When the
' conrt house was completed, the frame
honed on the corner mentioned be
came a dwelling house for the clerk
of the board of County Coinmienon
ers . For a period cf twenty years, a
talk cf moving the ex-county office
house was occasionally indulged in,
but it was not till last winter that
matters of rem val wa re brought to
a focal point; and the bnilding was
sold to the highest bidder at a public
salt. Ex Sheriff Loudon bought
the bonee. He contracted with
Grant Kanffman to move it to a lot
on Washington street. Kauffman is
a carpenter, who for his age has bad
extersive experience in building
bouses and barn, and he set to woik
to move the ex-countv house in a
manner that was effective in get
ting it nicely eff its foundation cn
rollers on timbers on Third street.
The first real obsticle in tho way was
an electric light pole at tbe east end
of the jail. The pole wag taken
down and tbo houso was nicely en
tered on Washington street and was
being moved satisfactorily, till the
elbow at Squire Weidmao's house
was encountered, then and there
some one remarked "The house is
wider thin tbe street." Everything
c.tme to a halt. That was at coon
on Saturday. Measurements were
speedily taken, and sure enough the
house is wider than tbe street. When
tbat fart was learned Kauffman with
drew from the work, and of course
the five -spectators to every workmen
at the scene bad nothing more there
to eutertain tberu they too withdrew
All Saturday afternoon, two thou
sand town people talked about tbe
building and what should be done
with it. Some one said, the Luther
an congregation uhould buy it and
mevs ii onto their lot beck of tbe
parsonage and finish it for a Sunday
school room cr dwelling house. Oth
ers faiJ James MeCauley and Editor
Allison bQOUhi iuy it and put It on
heir Jot on the north side of the
" " " ' " 'u
its travels. Others said it could be
taken back lo Third street, up Third
street, to Cherry street, cut Cherry
strtet to Eist Point to Waihington
street, and down WoshiDcttn street
to the foundation tbat had been pre
pared for it en the south side of
Washington street. Others said,
why Dot buy tho trees that line tbe
north side of Washington street, cut
them down and lay timbers on tlie
pavement and then the house can be
moved t ) its intended destination.
' Others
said cut the house in the
middle and thcu it can be moved
along the fctreet without disturbing
the trees. Tho trees were the ore at
obsticles in the wbj; if the trees had
bteu cut of tbe way the pavements
could have beon utilized, and thus
plei ty room been had. The subject
wts threshed over and over on Sun
day. There wasn't a phase of it that
Was not worn thread bear by Sun
evening, and the village rested quie
tly on the eubjsct over Sunday nigbt
as if to prepare itseif for new devel
opercenls on Monday.
Tlie quietest man on Sunday was
Grant Kauffman. But when Mon
day ruuri ing came he was thero at
the hou? wir.h a furce cf men and
like 1 be great General for whom be
was named, he determined to move
that boose "on that line, if it takes
all Enranur." Tho roof waa speedily
tuken ff and the house was sawed
across the middle, and in two sec
tions is being moved to its desti
nation oa Washington street.

to yield to Hood's Sarsaparilla, which
purities and vitalizes the blood and
cures all such diseases. Kead this:
" In September, 1S94, 1 made a misstepand
injured my aukle. Very soon afterwards,
two inches across formed and in walking
to favor it I sprained my ankle. The sore
became v.orse; I could not put my boot
on and I thought I ahould have to give up
at every step. I could not get any relief
and had to atop work. I read ot a cure of
p. similar cabs by Hood's Sarsaparilla and
concluded to try it. Before I bad taken
all of two bottles the sore had healed and
the swelling had gone down. My
ia now well and I have been greatly bene
fited otherwise. I have increased in
weight and am in better health. I cannot
say enough in praise of Hood'a Sarsapa
rilla." Mrs. H. Blake, So. Berwick, Me.
