A HAUNTED MANSION.
he Home of the Woman who was Frozen
to I>eath on Long’s Peak.
In the centre of this beautiful manufac
turing city, says a Watcrburv (Conn.)
special of Sept. 29. stands a handsome
mansion by spacious
NV ide carriage drives and winding walks
approach it over broad, green terracc-s
and tinder interlacing foliage. Every
thing about it is arranged for comfort and
to please the eye. The mansion is of the
gothic style of architecture, most popu
lar 2d years ago, and has always been
h*oked on as one of the finest dwellings in
western Connecticut. As the city in
creased in population it grew around this
place the value of which was greatly in
creased by its central locality. But'now
the place is looked upon with a sort of
fear, and people instinetivelv shudder as
they pass it, dreading to loot up into its
proves and lawns through fear of seeing
some spirit of evil. This fear has increased
since the last tragic event connected with
place—the death of its mistress. Miss Car
rie J. VVelton. who was frozen to death on
Long’s I’eak, Colorado.
The house was first built by a wealthy
manufacturer by the name of Seoville.
Mr. Scoville’s second manager was un
fortunate, his wife being much addicted
to strong drink. Unable to remain in his
elegant mansion with her. he unceremoni
ouslv departed, and soon died, a broken
down man. The property then passed in
to the bands of Joseph C. VVelton. Presi
dent of the Watcrburv Brass Company,
and connected w ith about all of the man
ufacturing interests here. One night, on
returning from New York, Mr. VVelton
beard a commotion in the barn. Going
thither, be lound two of his horses loose,
and he went in the stall to separate them.
llis favorite horse kicked him in the
breast, inflicting wounds from which he
soon died, leaving no will.
The estate was divided between his wile
and only daughter, Carrie, the house
- ing to the wife. Amity ruled until the
mother tried to get the daughter into an
insane asylum. The household was then
I again broken up, and the house was left
to ghosts. One of the many freaks of the
sprites is the Itesmirehing of the door
knob ol the best chamber with a substance
like coagulated blood, which reappears
every morning after being wiped off.
Several families have attempted to reside
there since the Weltons left, but soon
gave it up, although not publicly assign
ing any reasons therefor. Mrs' VVelton
had returned to the mansion before going
to Europe, and the furnishings there now
belong to her, but the house is dosed and
wears a lorbidden look. All sorts of
stories are in circulation to-day alsiut the
old mansion, one of which was that the
daughter had be?n seen in the yard on
horseback at midnight. Although the
property was put in the market at a low
figure, it is impossible to sell it, as it is
firmly believed that a curse rests upon it.
ANOTHER Cl UK BY FAITH.
Miss Daisy l’errin’s Sudden liestoration
from Consumption to Health.
Miss Daisy Perrin, a beautiful girl IT
years old, living at 832 Hancock street,
Brooklyn, says a New York special of
>ept.2s, had been s ok in lied eight weeks
and had been given up by the physicians,
when Capt. s. VV. Pendleton, of the steam
ship Gulf Stream, called on her on Thurs
day, accompanied by his.wife. Ile knelt
by her bedside,' and for an hour prayed
fervently, with her. When he hud fin
ished Miss Perrin was strong enough to
get up and walk, although for weeks be
fore she had been unable to move iter
limbs. On Friday she went out and vis
ited some friends, and yesterday she v\ as
bright and cheerful.
Mr. Perrin said to a reporter yesterday
that he and all the family had abandoned
hope of bis daughter’s recovery. know
they thought I was going to die,” Miss
Daisy said, "and I felt it myself. When
Capt". Pendleton came in with his wife I
had just got over an attack of convul
sions. He said that I might he cured if I
had faith. I said 1 thought 1 had. Then
Mrs. Pendleton said that if he were going
to pray with me he had licttor do it at
• *nee before more convulsions came on.
Then the Captain knelt down and prayed.
It was not a set prayer, but one from the
heart, lie said to nie, ‘Pray not that you
will improve, but that your health will
return at once.’
••I said ‘mamma’ aloud, and that was
the first that they knew that the prayer
had been effective, for before I had ouly
been able to whisper. Then 1 sat up and
all my pain was gone. 1 took the bandage
from iny head, for it didn’t ache any more,
and th> n got up and was able to walk. I
know that it was the prayer, and that 110-
i>ody but God cured me, for nobody but
He could. 1 had not taken any medicine
for over a week.”
Capt. Pendleton lives at 373 Third
street. South Brooklyn. He is a fine-look
ing man, aliout 50 years old, with a great
gray beard and kindly blue eyes. The
Gulf Stream got into port a week and a
half ago. Capt. Pendleton is a Presby
rian and belongs to the Rev. I>r. Ta!-
mage’s church. He says that he has made
two other faith cures. Miss Perrin is an
Episcopalian and belongs to St. Stephen’s
hurch, tn Jefferson street. Brooklyn,
where she has been a teacher in the Sun
day school. The most remarkable part of
the cure is that her voice, which was al
most gone, has returned full and strong.

June 2s. going to London and Alexandria.
He received notice ol his exile while stop
ping on the Boland farm, near Peekskill,
and had only a few hours in which to
reach tue ship. The scene when Brother
Frank received the news is said to have
been a very affecting one. Brother Swe
rian, of I*o LaSalle Institute, New Y ork,
was the bearer of the sentence from
Brother Patrick, the head of the order in
France. They were at breakfast at 8
o'clock when Brother Frank was handed
his passage ticket and a letter from
Brother Patrick, saying that he must sail
at 2 o’clock. The news was so suddeu
that Brother Frank eould hardly speak.
Clasping his hands together he said:
••Oh, my God! must Igo without even
seeing mv poor brother?”
He cried bitterly, and it was with diffi
culty that the brothers could calm him.
He asked tao reason why he was not
given a day's notice at least. Brother
Siberian told aim the news came the night
hetore, and they did not wish to wake him.
Brother Frank finally said;
-I must learn to live humble, and if
this be my Muster's wish. I am ready to
go.”

Surgeon* Calteii to Remove a Plu.
Wallingford, Cons., Sept. 27. —A re
markable and successful surgical opera
tion has been performed upon the son. 10
rears old, of Tax Collector It. 8. Austin,
of this place, by surgeons in the New
Y'ork Hospital. Two weeks ago be swal
lowed a pin. with something wrapped
about its head, which he sucked in iu
stead of puffed out of his putty blower.
He suffered great agony. The pin stuck
out ol the reach of the surgeons. All the
most pronounced skill in the Btate was
summoned to try to extricate tfce pin. In
all, 16 doctors tried their hand at it. They
all said the pin must stay there and the
boy die in consequence. He was taken to
the New Y’ork hospital. The surgeons
there decided to cut open his throat. They
did so and kept him alive by inserting a
silver pipe connection between his lungs
and head. They probed for the pin, but
found that none of their instruments
would reach it. They sent to Philadel
phia and had the necessary instruments
made, and kept the boy alive in the mean
time. The instruments arrived and the
pin was taken out. With a day or two
more of delay the boy would have died.
He arrived home to-day, lively as ever,
and suffering only with a slight cough.

WHITING PAPER ON THE RISE.
Manufacturer* Hold a Convention at
Springfield anil I’ut I'p Price*.
Springfield, Mass., Oct. I.— The
Writing Paper Makers, a branch of the
National Paper Makers' Association, had
a special meeting here to-day to consider
the question of a reduction of the produc
tion of fine papers to counteract the bad
influence of the market caused by the
prohibition of the importation of foreign
rags, which has increased the cost of
paper stock. After thorough discussion,
the following was unanimously adopted;
Keenlced. That we will not offer our paper
for sale or receive ary orders therefor except
at an advance of price from 1 to 2 cents per
pound.
Reunited, That rather than sell our papers at
a less advance than that named in the lorego
ing resolution we will lessen our production
until the price of paper advances sufU 'iently
to cover the extra cost of rags and other ma
terial.

people are quite competent to control
their domestic affairs, and need
no lesson in political economy from the
government from which thevhad to wrest
Their liberty with arms, and against whose

thrust upon this country, as it was to de
feat her armed forces, whether they fought
under her own flag or that of the Confed
eracy.” They declare also in favor of the
Monroe doctrine, and heartily indorse

in the city of Baltimore and in the State of
Maryland, but in case of special
suffering or and stress in other com
munities mv said trustees shall
have power to use their discretion and judg
ment in relieving the same. As iu this clause
of my will I dispo-e of certain shares of stock
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company,
I deem it proper to indicate mv reasons for
making a disposition of that stock, as herein
provided. While the city of Baltimore holds
its large interest in the stock of that com
pany, and the Johns Uockins University, fol
lowing the advice and recommendation of its
founders, continues to be the proprietor of
such a large proportion of the company’s
shares, and while the shares of the
stock which 1 bequeath to my
trustees remain in their hands
or their ettcee-sors, I fee] confident that
these three large proprietors, co-operating
with others alike interested in the welfare
and growth of Baltimore, will control the
management of the roads in the interest of
that city.
HIS FAVORITE POLICY.
1 am therefore desirous that said trus
teesfttid their successors shall retain the
owner hip of tiie stock hereinafter mentioned,
in order to carry out the line of policy
liich I believe lias accomplished great re
sults alike beneficial to the city of Baltimore
and the state of Maryland, as well as to many
other State* aud communities which have
keen brought by the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad tuto close business relations
with the city of Baltimore. I lelieve
that the policy of the management of
this road so as to bring the greatest benefits
to that city has been wise for the road and
city, and also for the States and communities
reached by it and its co-operating lines. Mv
children, who act as my trustees, are well ac
quainted with the lines of policy J approve in
connection with the Baltimore and Ohio road,
whose improvement and development have
constituted a large part of the work ot my
life, and I have confidence that in represeul
ing I his State, they Will, as far as it is in their
power, co-operate with !he other proprietors
of the capital of the company in carrying out,
such policy, it is, therefore, mv will, and 1
order and direct that -aid trustees and tlieir
successors in t e trust shall, out of my estate,
hold 30,000 shares of the common stock
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
for 20 years after mv death, at which date a
d.stribution an l division of such stock, at the
option of the parties interested, shall be made
as follows, viz: One-third to my son, Robert
Garrett, one-third to my son, Thomas Harri
son Garrett, and one-third to my daughter.
Alary Jfi. Garrett.
IN CASE OF DEATH.
In the event of the death of either of my
sons, or daughter, then the one.third portion
belonging to such son or daughter shall go to
his Jr her heirs, executors, administrators, or
assigns, and during said period of 2!i years
after the daic of death, wild.* such stock is so
held by said trustees and their successors,
they shall pav the net income therefrom to my
said three children, in equal parts, during the
lives of ea:d children, and after the death of
any of my said children, then liis or her heirs’
share of said net income is to lie paid to his oi
lier heirs, subject to these specifications anil
devises.
The entire estate is equally divided be
tween his three children. These three
children are not only made trustees, but
also executors of his will. It is under
stood that 30,000 shares of common stock
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany, in reference to which the preced
ing disposition and directions are made
and given, constitute the individual bold
ing of that stock by the late John AV.
Garrett, and do not include the large
holding of that stock by the firm of Robert
Garrett & Sons, which, according to an
announcement which appears in the
newspapers, is now constituted of Robert
Garrett and Thomas Harrisoft Garrett.
Tlie Western Hate War*.
Chicago, Oct. I.—The roads interested
in the passenger business to the Missouri
river to-day openly quoted over their
counters a rate ot $9 75 to Omaha and
Kansas City. The regular rate is sl4 50.
This was done in accordance with a de
cision at the meeting yesterday to punish
the Rock Island Road for issuing 1,000
mile tickets in payment for advertising,
which tickets have found their way into
the hands of scalpers. The local east
bound freight committee met to-dav and
agreed to abide by Commissioner Fink’s
order making the rate on grain twenty
cents and on provisions twenty-five cents.
These rates are half way between the
regular tariff and cut rates.
Food Adulteration.
New York, Oct. 1.---Sotnetime ago the
health authorities were notified that deal
ers in and makers of egg noodles and ver
micelli were using chrome yellow in
making their products, because this sub
stance was cheaper than eggs or saffron.
After an investigation the Health officers
found that this was true, and to-dav ar
rested the members of the firms of Rieg
ensburger & Cos., K. Belling and Goodman
Bros., for a violation of the law governing
adulteration of food products. Other ar
rests will be made to-morrow.
A Chicken Thief Killed.
Danville, Va., Oct. I.— William A.

chicken thief named George Lee in
the act of robbing his hen house.
He captured the negro, who broke
loose and attempted to escape. White
shot and killed the thief after calling upon
him to stop, which summons was disre
garded. White promptly informed the
authorities of the occurrence, and at a
hearing to-day before two -Magistrates he
was discharged.

Virginia’* Tobacco Crop.
Lynchburg, Va., Oct. I.—-The tobacco
year closed with September. At the an
nual meeting of the Lynchburg Tobacco
Association to-day the Secretary reported
the sales for the year to be a little over
21,090.000- pounds, 300,000 less than the
year previous. It is safe to say that the
In-coming crop will be much larger, al
though it is cut short by the drought.

THE POLITICAL CONTEST.
Mulligan Letter* Yet Unpublished—Said
to be More Damaging than Those Made
rnbllc-ExUting Letter* About the
Union I’ariflc Transaction.
Letters from Mr. Blaine to Warren
Fisher, Jr., says a Boston special to the
New York Evening Post, are probably in
existence besides those which have
already been published. Whether thev
will ever be printed will depend on the
course f the campaign. Before the
second instalment of letters appeared
they were described to mo in part in a
way which corresponded exactly with
their appearance. My information now
is of the same character as before, and I
have just as good reason to Ixdieve that
these other letters exist as 1 had tour
weeks ago to think that Mr. Blaine had
written “burn this” to Mr. Fisher. 1 have
just as direct information that not by auy
means the most damaging of Blaine’s
epistles to Fisher have been published,
and especially that if one of them were
giveu to the public, “it would drive Blaine
from the country by the next steamer.”
All the remaining letters, so I am told,
have been given outright by Air. Fisher to
Mr. Mulligan as his own property to do
with as he sees tit. For these letters Mr.
Mulligan has been offered by a friend of
Mr. Blaine, mv informant states,.the large
sum of $130,000. But Mr. Mulligan re
plied that he had all the money he wanted
and that, at any rate, no amount of monev
would l>uv them; not SIOO,OOO, nor sl,'-
000,000, nor $100,000,000. This statement
was made in answer to the question
whether A!ulligan was trying to black
mail Blaine. Why the letters are not all
given out 1 cannot learn. But the ques
tion, weeks ago, “Why do not these terri
ble letters appear if they are in exist
ence?” was followed by their appearance,
and perhaps these others may appear.
Statements regarding oth r letters of
Blaine, which 1 have never before heard
mentioned, have been made to me
by a gentleman who says ho was told bv
a man who has read them. He says that
there are in the possession of the Union Pa
cific officials in this city letters written by
Air. Blaine which supply the missing link's
regarding the sale of Little Rock bonds to
the Union Pacific Road, and prove con
clusively? that the transaction occurred
which has been so positively denied by
Blaine. These letters, it is further as
serted, will never be given to the public.
The railroad officials hold them, but sym
pathizing with the Republicans, will not
permit them to get out.
TALK ABOUT THE CABINET.
Hatton Beginning to l'’eiirthat He Won't
be Postmaster General After Alt.
Mystery surrounds certain movements,
political and others, of the administra
tion, says a Washington special of Sept.
23. In regard to the Treasury Depart
ment the uncertainty is as great as ever.
Gresham himself is authority for the
statement that his appointment is only
temporary. There is almost as good au
thority* for say ing that less than ten days
ago Gresham accepted the offer of Judge
Drummond’s seat on the bench. For the
last few days there has been a hurrying
to and fro of members of the Cabinet,
specially Secretary Chandler, who is the
handy man of the administration just
now. Whether the present state of uncer
tainty is owing to an unusual manifesta
tion of Arthur’s constitutional disposition
to procrastinate and do nothing to-day
that can be put oil' till to-morrow or to
obstacles in the way ol a plan which he
lias tor tilling permanently the Treasury
vacancy, Cabinet officials profess entire
ignorance. Gresham out of the Post Oflic3
Department is the one thing accomplish
ed. Hatton, who has flattered himself
that he would be Gresham’s successor,
begins to listen curiously when friends
tell him that he will fail of it. When
asked for a reason why Arthur did not
appoint him at once, if be is going to do
it at all. he is without a sufficient answer.
To intimates he pretends to have reasons
enough for expecting to be Postmas
ter General. Persons professing to
speak from independent reasons say
that Arthur when he gets ready will
name the heads of the Treasury and the
Post Office Department at the same time.
This view gives Hatton comfort. He
thinks that he will be named when Gres
ham’s successor in the Treasury is, and
within the next two weeks. The theory
that Levi P. Alorton’s arrival is waited
for is still clung to by those who have had
it from the first. No interest of the gov
ernment suffers from this anomalous
state of things, though it is obviously not
one which is specially creditable. No
emergency can be pleaded for it. In gen
eral it is looked upon as a muddle pro
duced by Arthur’s indisposition to act till
a real embarrassment was produced.
CARLISLE ON THE SITUATION.
Predicting a Democrat c Victory in In
diana atul \Ve*t Virginia—Ohio Doubt
ful.
Speaker Carlisle arrived here to-day on
a flying trip from West Virginia, snys a
Washington special of Sept. 28. He spoke
at Grafton a day or two ago, and is to
speak at other points in the State. Talk
ing with your correspondent he said he
had not the slightest doubt that West Vir
ginia would be Democratic by a large
majority, probably fifteen or twenty thou
sand. “We are not only going to carry
the State,” he said, “but we shall make a
Congressional gain there, for we will beat
Goff in his district.”
“You think the next House is going to
be Democratic?”
“Undoubtedly.”
“You have been in Ohio, too, as well as
West Virginia?”
“\es; 1 spoke at Columbus the other
night, and also some other points in the
State.”
“What do you think of the situation
there?”
“I confess I can hardlv get my ideas up
to the point of believing that we shall
carry the State, aa our people there claim
that we shall. They are very hopeful,
and indeed confident, that the State will
be Democratic.
“As to Indiana?”
“Indiana will doubtless be Democratic.”
“Do you feel confident of the general
result?”
“Yes. I think there is little doubt of
Cleveland’s election. Of course it ail
depends on New l'ork, but those familiar
with the situation there say we shall
carry it. and if this is the case there re
mains no doubtof our success.”
MYRA CLARK G A INKS,
She is Not in Politics, out Loves Her
Country and Her Sex.
Mrs. Myra Clark Gaines writes to a
Washington paper in correction of a vo
ce ut statement by it about .. reception
given by Mrs. Candidate Belva A. Lock
wood last week as follows: “I wish to
correct the impression that I mado a po
litical speech on this occasion. On the
contrary, 1 made no' allusion to politics"
but merely related an incident which oc
curred in one of the courts of New Or
leans when I was called on to give the
story of my legitimate claim to the estate
of my father, Daniel Clark. Thinking Ibis
little episode in my life might pos
sess dramatic interest for those ac
quainted with my history, i told*
how 1 was unexpectedly called on by mv
sainted husband, Gen. Gaines, to argue in
my own defense in consequence h the
court hating suddenly dismissed mv
counsel, Mr. Bailey Peyton, from the case',
and how the jury, after listening to my
simple Element, unsustained even hy an
oath, jroui'ht in unanimous verdict in my
favor, a compliment never to be forgotten.
The perturbed state of my mind, which
for fifty-one years has been devoted to the
recover:.- of my estate and the perplexities
and anxieties which letral difficulties and
complications constantly occasion me, al
low but little time for the consideration
of the political issues of the day. lam
no partisan, but love soy country as a
mother loves be- child, and mv earnest
and constant prayer is for its luture hap
piness and prosperity.
