All newspaper readers remember Washington Irving Bishop, the mind reader, and how, a couple of years ago, at a gambol at the Lambs' club. New York city, he BALANCED ON THE BED. offered to give his friends an exhibition of his remarkable power. The test was a particularly difficult one, and before it was concluded, Bishop fell in a cataleptic fit. Some physicians who were present, after an examination, pronounced him dead and dissected him.

His mother and widow alleged that the scalpels had been used while Bishop was alive, and brought suit for heavy damages, but the case went against them. Bishop had frequently suffered from attacks similar to the one which carried him off. San Francisco has recently been amused, entertained and mystified by a man who seems to possess a power much like Bishop's and who resembles him in many other respects. His name is Alexander J. Mc-Ivor Tyndall.

He is the son of an English surgeon, and says that he is but twenty years of age. He has a remarkably fine head and a broad forehead, which serves to give him the appearance of extreme intellectuality. He always carries upon his person a card addressed to medical men, on which is printed a warning that, owing to his predisposition to protracted spells of catalepsy, extra caution must be observed before he shall be declared dead and turned over to the undertaker for burial. Tyndall arrived in San Francisco a few weeks ago, and at once began to give exhibitions of mind reading. These tests always threw him into a condition of violent mental excitement, and it was not long before he was in the receiving hospital suffering from catalepsy.

He remained in this trance nineteen hours, and after being released, although very weak at first, recovered his usual strength in two or three days' time. A couple of weeks later, however, Tyndall was back in the receiving hospital again in the grasp of his old enemy, which physicians unite in saying will eventually put him in his grave. During this cataleptic trance the surgeon, Dr. Williams, tried all sorts of experiments with Tyndall. He stuck a pin into his hand, ran a needle through the calf of his leg, balanced him in strange but nothing could disturb the regular breathing, which was as gentle as though the patient was a peacefully slumbering bale.

Tyndall is said to possess wonderful powers. He accidentally learned of his ability to "read minds," he says, when he was a mere boy, and he has assiduously cultivated it. Tyndall believes that a great many persons, with the proper training, could make themselves experts in his peculiar art. He professes to be able, under proper conditions, to become, for the time being, part and parcel, mentally, of the person whose thoughts he wishes to divine. Tyndall's father is anxious to have him give up his present occupation, but the young man says that he will stick to it as long as he lives.

LYNCHERS TO BE TRIED. They Hanged a Man In Broad Daylight and Must Answer for It. Eight men are now awailing trial in Darlington, on an indictment for murder in the first degree. THE COURT HOUSE AND JAIL. About the middle of last September An ton Siebolt killed James Meighan in cold blood, stamping him to death after he had rendered him unconscious by a blow from a wagon pin.

A few days later Seibolt was taken from jail: by a crowd of eight or ten men, who overpowered the sheriff and district attorney, and, weariug the clothes which were still stiff and hard with the life blood of his victim of the week before, he was strung up to a tree across the street from the jail. The lyuching occurred in broad daylight in the presence of about 200 citizens and several hundred boys and girls, pupils 111 a nearby school which had just "let out." The lynchers made no effort whatever to conceal their identity, and as the rope hey used was too short to admit of being tied, they hung on to it in full view of the crowd until their hapless vic tim was pronounced aead. haglit men, most of them relatives of the murdered Meighan, were indicted, as has been stated, for murder i 1 the first degree, but when the case was called at the last session of the court their counsel obtained a post ponement until the March term. Much interest attaches to the outcome of the trial, us some years ago three persons in Trempealeau county. who took part in a lyuching were sentenced to im prisonment for life, while many others were fined.

Can Sell Milk on Snnday. ine lawiuiness or selling milK to a duchess on Sunday has recently been agi tating a presbytery in the west of Scot land. Rolert Kelso, an elder of the Free Kirk, in the Isles of Arran, was in the habit of carrying on such trade. His min ister remonstrated against it as desecration. "In the camp of Israel Saturday's supply of manna was always made to serve on Sunday, and there should be no excep tion in the case of a duchess." The kirk session supported the minister and admon ished the elder.

The latter refused to sub mit, appealed to the presbytery, and that body, while praising the zeal of the session, forbade the admonition.

If we may believe the lore of our grandmothers, a good many of those events which are usually supposed to be hidden from the world till the time of their arrival may be divined in advance by means of the "cup which cheers." Most of these "signs," even, are well known at the present time, but here are a few with which all readers may tot be acquainted: When a bit of the stem or twig of the tea Is seen floating in the cup it is a sign that a "visitor" may b-j expected. If the stalk has a hard feeling when pressed between the thumb and finger the caller will be a man; if yielding, a woman. When the com ing of a masculine friend is thus indicated to a young lady, she should Bite him In two and throw him under the table; Ho will come if he 13 able. Another variation consists in stirring the contents of the cup swiftly around, as soon as the float is discovered, leaving the teaspoon standing erect in the center of the cup. If the "beau" floats around the edge of the cup, without coming near the spoon, he will in some way fail to make the contemplated visit.

If it touches the spoon and then sails away, his coming will be unfortunate; but if it adheres to the handle, remaining there till the contents of the cup become quiet, his coming will be assured, and its result will be all that could be desired. If a young lady would know the number of years that will elapse before her marriage, let her balance a perfectly dry spoon on the edge of her cup. Taking a few drops of tea in a spoon held an inch above the first, let one drop after another fall gently into the bowl of the one which is in balance. The number of drops required to "destroy the equilibrium of the spoon will probably be found to indicate the years which will pass before marriage. Should a single person by any chance have two spoons placed in or beside a single cup, it is a sign of marriage before the close of the year unless the event happens on the 31st of December, when marriage may be looked for during the following year.

If a young lady adds milk or cream to her tea before putting in the sugar, it is a sign that she is in danger of being crossed in love. If while the tea is being made the lid of the teapot is for any purpose removed and its return is forgotton, it is an indication that some one will drop in to share the repast! and an additional cup of the beverage should be prepared. Fill a cup nearly full of tea and drop in a lump of loaf sugar. If the small bubbles which rise gather and remain in the center of the cup it is a sign of fair weather; but if they seek the outer edge, a storm is indicated and its violence will be in proportion to the rapidity and energy of their movements. Newton Norton in Good Housekeeping.

Profits of Storage Companies. There is good deal of money invested in the storage business in this city, and its extraordinary growth illustrates the nomadic life of the New Yorker. Great warehouses have sprung up from year to year in various parts of the city. The more recent ones are built like prisons, and are as absolutely fireproof as stone and brick and iron can make such a building. They cost considerable money, but the obtained for the storage of household goods make it a good investment.

Every spring the New York householder is sure of a dozen cards from as many storage companies, sent on the general supposition that every householder is to pull up and go somewhere. The cost of putting your household goods in one of these vaults is ten dollars a van; load going and coming, and from twenty to fifty dollars a month while there. In fact, the expense of storage of this kind meets half way the expense of making a storage warehouse of your existing establishment and hiring a guard to stand over it. It may strike some people as funny that a man can't leave town and safely leave his bed and bedding outside of a burglar and fireproof vault, but that is about the size of it. The chief source of income to the storage companies, however, is that large class of married people who alternate between housekeeping and boarding once or twice a year or oftener.

New York Herald. Women Doctors Need Not Starve. The increase of women doctors in the city has been very marked lately and sev eral of them are now admitted as staff physicians at the hospitals and dispensaries. One great advantage that they seem to have over their rivals of the other sex is that they can tack out their sign and then go as professional nurses until business comes to them, the male doctor often has to starve through a course of a year or two, and then he frequently fails to make enough to keep the pot boiling. Women doctors are generally proficient nurses and they are trained by nature and study to care for the sick.

They can take a patient and prescribe for him, and then watch by the bedside until all is over. At the end double fees are demanded the regular doctor's fees for prescribing, and then the nurse's salary for watching and nursing the patient according to the prescriptions made out by herself. There is no doubt but a great advantage is obtained in this way, and the nurse and doctor are both held responsible for any mistake. Among babies and women the female doctor has a field, which she is gradually making a specialty. New York Times.

For Whom the Gospel Is Meant. The Gospel is meant not only for the wise and talented, for those of quick and keen mental powers, but just as truly for those of imperfect culture, for the dull and heavy minded, for the children in development as well as the children in years. All that God asks of us is that each uses aright such opportunities and powers as have been given him. Simplicity characterizes both the essential nature of the Gospel and the divinely chosen manner of applying it to human needs. "The wayfaring men, yea, fools, shall not err therein."

Mrs. Dennison, one of the prettiest of young wives in Sorosis, says she always wondered why men liked so well to marry widows until after she was married and saw how the woman who has been married knows the secret of married life, which is adaptability and tact in going around sharp corners. New York Sun. IT WAS A TERRIBLE GANG. The Rise and Fall of the Simsltes A Bloody Record.

"The Sims gang is wiped out." Such la the tenor of the latest dispatches from Choctaw county, and the adjacent section of Mississippi. All are ftone; the details run: Four or five were shot dead, nine or ten were hanged, including by one account Laura and Beatrice, daughters of Bob Sims, and all of Bob's sons and brotb. era, and a few others "disappeared" in ways not related. Take it all in all, it is the most dramatic, horrible, incredible, and altogether unexplainable of recent American tragedies. It began soon after the civirwar with the expulsion of old Bob Sims, a brave vet eran of the Confederate army, from the Methodist church for general recklessness of speech and demeanor.

He vas a rugged and muscular backwoodsman, an orphan reared no one knows how, wit a deal of native shrewdness and a wonderful "gift of gab," but of a wild, unbalanced intellect. He preached a compound of Mormouism, communism and anarchism, and soon had some sixty followers a terror to the whole community. All who offended him had to suffer. He cut out the tongues of cattle, cnt off their hoofs, shot horses and avenged himself in many other ways. He manufactured moonshine whisky and so the federal au thorities got after him.

His gang rose on the officers, killed one and badly wounded another, but one of the Simses was killed in the fray. The daughters, Laura and Beatrice, went to the governor and tried to make terms for their father, but threatened vengeance on all their enemies. The culmination came one night when several neighbors were gathered at McMillan's house and store. The Simses went with a wild band of fanatics, set the house on fire by throwing burning balls of cotton and turpentine, and as the inmates fled for their lives men, women and children were indiscriminately shot down. The details are horrible.

John McMillan leaped the fence with a child in his arms and was shot through the body. Old John Kennedy, with his grandchild in his arms, reached the woods and there was shot through the heart. Josephine McMil-lanrwith a baby brother in her arms, was shot down in the road and beat the grass and weeds around her in. her death struggles, while the baby lay screaming by with three buckshot in his leg. All around the burning building murder was in progress, murder such as only save Indians have heretofore done in AmtVica, and all this time the Sims gang yelled and blasphemed in language too horrible for publication.

i lauka Beatrice sims. Three were shot dead and ninny badly wounded, including Miss Uelle McKenzie. A child of seven years, but slightly wounded, was thrown into the (lames and literally roasted to death. The people rose as one man arid besieged the cabin of Bob Sims. lie and his gang defended it with Spartan heroism, shouting defiance, sing ing their peculiar songs and even playing the flute in the intervals of the liuttle.

A six-pounder cannou was brought, however, and they hiul to yield; and then the hanging followed. Bob Sims, Will Savage and Tyree Savage were hanged first, on the same oak tree, with the rope from Neil Sims' well. Then a general hunt for the others began. Neil Sims, a negro outlaw named Hur-ton and a few others had got into the woods, but a few were captured. The details are not given they "disappeared." Then a neighbor who had witnessed the night attack at McMillan's made oath thai he had seen Laura and Beatrice Sims in the attacking party cheering on the men, and their fate was sealed.

Lynching of women is such a revolting matter that a denial has been published, and it is even claimed now that one of the Sims men, Bob's brother Neil, escaped. Stage Robber and Ranchman. Abe Jones is a tough citizen, and has done much to boom the stage robbing in dustry in California. When he and Bill Howard "held, up" the Reading coach some time ago, however, they carried things a little too far, for not content with carrying off the valuables they maltreated a young woman passenger. A purse of was hung np for the capture of Abe and Bill, ABE JONES, "dead or alive." They were arrested, escaped and two days later Howard was killed.

A Modoc county rancher named Thompson tracked Jones to the mountains and made him a prisoner. Thompson isa giant in size and so "handy with a gun" that he can cut the spots out of a playing card at a distance of twenty rods. He gave Jones an exhibition of his shooting and then remarked: "Now Mister Robber'; not going to tie you up. I'll let you ny where within fifty feet of me, but as uJaim is a little uncertain beyond that and I might kill you instead of cutting off your ears, I think you had better be careful of your distances." It is almost unnecessary to add that Abe is now behind the bars, and that, as Mr. Thompson is not a patient man, he was promptly paid his share of the reward.

Wild Life Has Its Charms. Nearly every one has a certain vein of savagery lurking beneath the veneer of civilization, and for that reason many Caucasians voluntarily return to the primitive life of long forgotten ancestors. A missionary, who has arrived on the coast from the interior of Africa, says that one of the Europeans who took part in the disastrous battle between the Zarewsky expedition and the Wahehe natives, is now a prisoner in the hands of the Wahehe. Scattered through Africa are white men who are in bondage or have voluntarily taken up their residence there. Dr.

Nachtigal's servant is an example. He deserted his master in the Soudan, and at last accounts he was living near Lake Tchad, the only white man in that part of Africa. There was a novel entertainment at Raleigh the other day. Two colored thieves were condemned to receive thirty-nine lashes each, and spectators were admitted to witness the whipping at twenty-five cents a head. The gate receipts went to thr prisoners as a salve for their wounds.

0 Jllk How thai Portrait Was Fainted Is Told in a letter by the Artist. One of the leading lawyers of ew Jersey was some time ago engaged in the administration of an estate that involved, among other things, the ownership of a copy by Rembrandt Peale of his original portrait Washington and also a copy of Peale's father's portrait of Mrs. Washington The executor of the Peale estate was appealed to, and he furnished a bundle of old letters from the artist himself, which not only settled the question in litigation, but brought to light interesting information concerning those famous portraits. These letters have never been published. Peale died in Philadelphia in 18G0, and the letters to the executor were written in 1854.

Peale, it will be recalled, was only eighteen years old when he painted Washington's portrait. The following letter tells its own story of the way in which the artist painted the portrait of the Father of his Country. It is dated Philadelphia, March, 1S54: "By express I you a copy of my Washington, and shall with pleasure immediately finish for you a portrait of Mrs. Washington which I had begun for another destination some weeks ago. "When Washington sat to me in 1795.

the latter part of September, he came to my room at 7 o'clock, each time as he entered in the act of putting his watch in his fob, thus giving me an example of punctuality which I have since enforced on all my sitters. My father, an old acquaintance, kept him in conversation, which enabled me to study his countenance. It was a period of some anxiety with him, as he was hesitating whether or not to sign Jay's treaty with England: and further, he was doubtless disturbed by the publication of forged letters, which it was asserted were taken on the person of a runaway servant. No one ventured to speak with him on the subject, and he would not condescend un asked to deny them. My uncle, James Peale, a zealous politician, at the second sitting he gave me, bluntly addressed him, 'General, did you write those To which he replied, 'I never lost any letters.

No servant of mine ever ran away from He talked at ease on other subjects, but my uncle went out, telling his (Wash ington's) answer to everybody he knew, and in two hours all Philadelphia was relieved Of the scandal. "Before the invention of porcelain teeth on gold plates it was the practice of the dentists to fashion them from blocks of seahorse ivory. One of these sets was made by the elder Gardette for General Washington, but it was fortunate for me that he sat to me without them, as they were just finished and were clumsy and uncom fortable and distended his mouth so that he finally rejected them, and it was equally unfortunate for Stuart that his portrait represents him as he appeared for a short time with them, looking, as Judge Washington informed me, as though rinsing his mouth with water, and, as Stuart himself informed me, preventing him from holding any conversation (though ignorant of the cause) so essential to the production of an animated likeness. By sitting so early as 7 in the morning I had his hair before it was curled and powdered by the barber, after which hour Mr. Stuart's portrait was painted.

"I painted this portrait with but little reference to any pecuniary compensation, but for my own heart's satisfaction, to take with me to Europe, proudly to be valued as the portrait of the i ather of my Coun try and the revered of all nations. I never offered it to congress, but the senate flattered me into their acquisition of it by a unanimous vote, supported by Henry Clay, who declared that if he could have his will 'not only every room in the Capitol, but every house in the United States, should have this portrait of ashington. "It is now the reward of my enthusiastic excitement in producing it, and it is my devotional duty in reproducing them to gratify the taste and patriotism of those who think with Chateaubriand that there is a virtue in the looks of a great It is right that a paragraph should be added showing the turmoil that surround ed Washington at the time he sat for the picture to Peale in 1795. -He had just been summoned from Mount Vernon because of the excitement over Jay's treaty. While he was sitting to the young artist Jay was beine burned in effigy in Boston, and the intercepted dispatches of the French minister had but just led to a rupture between President Washington and Secretary of State Edmund Randolph that led to the latter's retirement in everlasting disgrace.

This old letter of Peale's throws a strong light on Washington's demeanor at that critical period. New York Herald. Who They Were. Not long ago two young girls were traveling "out west." As the train stopped at a station two ladies entered and took seats directly in front of them. Just as they were seated a stout lady came forward, greeted them effusively, and the trio kept np a lively conversation until the train started.

Then one of them said, "Sit down here near us," and, in a little lower tone, "Tell those girls to sit somewhere else." So the stout lady turned and said in the most freezing of tones: "I wish to converse with my friends and would like that seat. I am Mrs. President of this road." The girls stared at her an instant, and then one of them drawled: "Pleased to meet yon, I'm sure. I suppose you know 1 am Mrs. President Harrison, of Washington," and the other girl, settling herself comfortably in her seat, said, And I am Mrs.

Queen Victoria." There was an audible smile from the other passengers, and the stout lady went to her own seat in the rear. Cor. New York World. Teas for This Country. The teas imported into the United States embrace some of the choicest varieties grown.
