Z Reporter's Account of Her Perform ances. Several Georgia papers having recently published accounts of the alb-gal strange P< overs [kiss ssed by Miss Lula Hurst, a girl living with her parents near Cedartown, Ga., the Atlanta Constitution sent one of its staff to investigate the matter. The Constitution representative saw the young lady at her home, and sent to his pa;er the following ex traordinary account of his visit: Lula Hurst is one of the most singular looking gji ls I ever She has the strangest look in her dark brown eyes that ] ever encountered. It needed no reco le lion of her mysterious p. >wer to completely awe me whenever those untathomable orbs threw their weird fires into mine. In fact, I think I lost five pounds of flesh every time I caught that girl looking at me The neighbors had told me she was an un sophi-te ated country girl. 1 couldn’t se<? it. Away aroun 1 in the corners of her eves I could see lurking just the strangest expres sion I ever saw. IL r father told me she always took delight in mvstifying folks. My opinion is that her father doesn t understand her any more than the alleged scientists understand the rose tinted sunsets at West End. Freeman, of the Cedartown Advertiser and I under, of the Rome Courier, have both staked their sacred honor on Lulu Hurst's I eauty. It takes a rather gallant manto make up such a verdict. She is fifteen vears old. tmu udly large for her ape, and her wrist s are as big as those of a good-sized man. Instead of a handsome and willowy figure I found that she was inclined to be somewhat round shouldered, and her frame seemed to be remarkable more for its weli-developedmus cl -s t han for any statue-like beauties. In ‘■Wa I, of de'icately-ehiseled features and n sun .ike alal ader. as the enthusiastic one had told me she jos-essed, I found high cherk bones and a face with a considerable amount " color in it. Her nut-brown hair, stiff and II n illy, hung loosely from her head, its wild f edorn checked only by a blue ribbon bow fastened in some wav on the top of her hea l Her hair reached slightly below her shou’- d is, and heightened the awe-inspiring effe t o her eves and high cheek bones. She dressed p.amly to a I- markable degree-and, m Iced, she seems to be regardless of herper so:-al appearance. She is five feet three inches in height. This is what Miss Lula told me about the beginning of the mystery: "line night about two months ago I was Sleeping with my mother in my room. We -h' l * tired aliout nine, and were just get ting off to sleep, when suddenly the tied set wIW ''"J I*TPi>ig.' the like of wine ii I had never heard liefore.

My mother sa the noises were cau-ed by electricity, but o course, knew no hing of that. Imine 1 ateiy my father and the family all decidi t hat seine Chid powers were at work in in Mother said ‘Lula, put your hands on th chair. 1 did so, and thechair began to nrn amund. It amused the little children, and ke]>t it up for half an hour.

Mr Hurst laid an ordinary cuair upo the floor on its back. "Lulu, vou put you hand on it, said he. ' J The young lady stooped down, put the tic of two of her fingers to the back of th chair and immediately the piece of turn ture lK)gau to I a k around the room at ei\ tate as if slid along by some unset? power. The chair was then stood up and Mr Fonder and 1 were asked to hold it on th flow, lender took one side and I took th other. R e put our whole force to work t ,i? ‘V’ 111 ' Miss Hurst placed the palm of her hands on the back of the chair, an< it was soon flying around the room, over {lowering lx>th of us. creating a big stir an nearly knocking usdown. Miss Hurst then took the chair and place, both hau ls un ier the perforated bottom witl her palms upjs rmost. She took no h >ld oi it, but simply let it ret on her hands as i servant might Lave carried a waiter of flow ers. Thus the legs of the chair were abou three feet from the floor and the seat abou four and a half. Pon ler and I attempted t< put it on the floor, using all our might ant strength to do so, but the chair would not down. It continued to ri-c and fly around ii the air with the newspaper men swing+nr at each side. Mr. Hurst, a man weighlm n ar two hundred pounds.then got up into thi chair and sat there as calmly as if he were i boy sitting on a gate ]>ost. Thus Miss Hurs snpjiorte l the comb ned weight of the three 1 he total weight w-hich she thus supported oi the palms of her hands was nearly five huu are 1 pounds, or much more than the weigh, of two barrels of flour. It was indeed a-ton ishing, especially in view of th • fact that no a muscle twi he 1 an<i the sl.ghest flush did not mantle her cheeks. She was as calm anc unconcerned as if she had been twirling t summer hat by a string. “Does it not tire you:’’ I asked. “Not at all,' she replied. “ Do you feel any peculiar sensations?” “None whatever.” “ Doesn't it strain you?” “ Indeed, if this were a cane-bottom chair you would n it see the slightest strain on th< delicate canes.” What do you think about it?” “ I don't know a ivthiug about it,” I took a heavy hi kory walking-stick, and caught it near one end. Mr. J. N. Brown oi Chattanooga, might beside me ; Mr. J W Hinton, of >oial C rcle, and Mr. B. M. Cor nell. of Goshen, Ind., took the other side h i h couple lac d the other. We held on with both hands, the stick firmly pressed agrmso ea h man's che t To mv left the en iof the Bti k projected a fl.ot.

There is no doubt of one thing, and 1 men tion it briefly for the benefit of those who may choose to study the matter, and that i this: M hatever inanimate object she touched appeared to De charged with a force that im pelled it to move, and that, too, most vigor ously', and always from her, and with an ir resistible force. Her touch has no effect on animate objects. Mr. Hurst and his wife have grown very enthusiastic over their daughter s powers, and pr.qiose to take her on the read if she ca i make a success. She has certainly ere ated a big sensation in her s. ction of N< rtb Georgia Thejieople are talking of hardly anything beside the wonderful Lulu. The spiritualists are beginning to Hock to the scene and to write to her father and mother, and it may be that a few more weeks wit find her a full-fledged medium. A gentlemat who is neither a spiritualist nor scientist sug gests that perhaps Miss Lulu's powers were developed by the same causes that produced the rosy sunsets, as they are conternporan eons, and that they will" both take their de parture together. The negroes in Ce far val ley are afi a d of the young lady, and great alarm has taken possession of many of them who think she lias power to cause their death at will. Some local wi-e.vres accredit her with ani mal magnetism, others elet tricity, and still others the ‘‘odic influence" developed. Fot my r own part I have not made up my verdict yet.

MAN AND WIFE LYNCHED. Vigilante Execute Speedy Justice for a Cruel Harder. Some three months ago, says a Denver (Cold dispatch, Mary Rose Matthews, a bright, winsome little girl ten years old, was a-lopted from the Denver Catholic Orphan's Home by Mike Cuddihio and wife, living on a ranche ten miles from Ouray, a small min ing town in the southern part of the State. Saturday morning little Rose suddenly died, and was buried bv Cuddihie in a distant pa: tof his ranch. The little girl had been cruelly treated from the first, the neighbors said, and her mvsterious death and hurried burial aroused their suspicions. The coroner at (>uray was notified. He immediate y re paired to the ranch, found the grave and ex humed the body, when unmistakable ev,- dences of her cruel death were revealed. The body was covere 1 with knife w-ounds, one leg was broken, the skull crushed and limbs frozen. She had no doubt ben driven out in the winter to die. Cuddihie and wife were immediately arrested and placed in jail. Yes terday they were tried and both found guilty < I murder. About 1 o’clock thte morning a band of masked men went to the hotel where C udd hie an I wife were temporarily’ held in cust -dv. overpowered the sheriff's guard and took the prisoners away. They both cried loudly for mercy, but as they had ever been deaf to the pleadings of little Rose for mercy, so the vi Rants closed their ears to the cries of the prisoners.

At the third annual congress of farmen interested in the ensilage system in New York, over 200 agriculturists were present representing nearly every State east of the Mississippi. Dr. A. S. Heath, of New York city,presided. Prof. Miles, of Amherst cellege, delivered an interesting address on the sub ject of ensilage and the best l hods of pre serving green fodder.

Evans, known as the head of the “Shakers,” declared that the ensilage system had been used with much success by his people. Mr. John Mayer, superintendent of T. A. Havemeyer’s famous farm at Norwalk Conn., said there was twenty-four silos on the farm and that fifty times as many cattle were kept on the same ground by the ensilage 7s'em as before the method was used. The attle, he said, were also healthier. A reso ution was passed requesting the agricultural department to make an analysis todetermine the comparative value of the qualities of the nilk from ensilage and ordinary fed cows Professor J. P. Edwards, of Randolph, N A., said that he fed sixty cows on nothing but ensilage maize, and that they gave better milk and were in better condition than ever be'ore. Mr. Mayer, on behalf of Mr. Havemeyer. invited the congress to visit his farm in Nor walk and inspect the silos and cattle. A arge number acceptai the invitation.
