HIS HEALING HANDS. A- Ohio Farmer Who Banishes Tain by a Simple Touch, r. ' .j! llii Pittsburg Oi.i}>a!ch. “Do >llll si-e that white-haired, couutry lifd ‘oki.ig chap sitting in front of the Rod I.ion !I.Lv” asked a business miui of a friend whom ha met on tho opposite side of tJio street. “We.il. •■•Tint of him?" answered,theother. “H b- "ne of the most peculiar old chaps I .N<ei met,” said the first speaker. “He claims to be possessed of the ‘healing pow er.' and his touch is something wonderful. It makes vonr nerves fairly tingle. For my jigrt I don't understand it.'” This conversation was what led a reporter to look up the man with healing in his hands. He was found sitting outside the door smoking a regulation tobie, and quiet ly watching the passing throng. His hair and beard are snowy white, and worn short alter the country style, while his dress is more substantial and comfortable than rich and fashionable. Taking a seat beside him the reporter asked: “Are you the doctor?" “No, sir,” he answered, rather innocently. “Ain’t yon the faith-cure doctor that is stopping here?” “No, sir, I ain't no faith-cure doctor, but I can knock a pain out of you in a jiffy if I sets my hands on you,” he replied, with a good oral of animation. The interviewer was at a loss to know how to take the old gentleman’s answer—whether he meant that he would knock the life out of him for his impertinence, or that he would kindly relieve his physicial sufferings. As he did not take a threatening hold on the big dogwood cane that he carries, the inter viewer proceeded to explain: “I was told that you were a faith-cure or pow-wow doctor.” “I’m nothing of the kind. My name is Josiah Stouebraker, and I live down in Belmont county, 0., near Demos Postoffice, and I don’t have to pw-wow for a living. 1 am a farmer, and I do most of the under taking business in that section. I used to make uiy own coffins, but I don’t do it any more. You fellcvws up here make ’em cheaper than I can. “No, I am not up here after coffins; I just came up to see some old friends and'look around. I was here about twelve years ago, but it doesn’t loos like the same place. Then it was so smoky and dark that I thought I would have to get a lantern to see my way on the streets.” “Yes, there has been a great change. But I would like to know something about this pain cure.” “Well, young man, all that I know is that when a person comes to me and says: Si, I’ve a pain, so and so,’ and I put my hands on the plat “ and the pain goes away, or if I rub a wart or corn, they go away, and I’ve known cancers to disappear after I had rubbed them that way. “You needn’t laugh, young feller,” says he solemnly, as he laid his hand on the doubting Thomas’ thigh.” It may have been imagination, but his hand seemed as hot as fire, and sent thrills to the ends of the toes. “No, never laugh at such things; for you don't know what might happen. I have saved life, and while I do not travel on it, still 1 feel that whenever I can relieve suf fering I ought to do it. As I said before, I don’t have to, and am up here just to look around. “Do I believe in faith cures? Of course I do. Every Christian must believe in them. In the early days of the church all cures were effected by means of the laying on of hands, anointing with oil, and offering up prayer. Why may it not be just as good now? “I don’t know anything about magnet ism, galvanism, nor none of your isms. I only know that, if you have a rheumatic pain there in your knee, a tightness in your chest, or a pain in your head, I can drive it out. Now, you can call it whatever ism you pleaee. ‘•Do you believe the power is from God? or is it your own?” “Every good and perfect gift is from God; besides, we have no power of our own. In olden times the people possessed divers gifts; some the gift of prophecy, some the gift of healing, and others the gift of teaching. I reckon mine is the gift of healing. “Did you always have this power?” “Yes; but I didn’t know it until a gifted healer toJd me so. He said that I had a great deal of power, and he showed me how to use it. My wife, who had been an invalid for twenty years, and had been in bed four years, and only weighed about 50 pounds, now weighs 150 and is able to do her own housework. Why, sir, the blamed doctor bills kept me poor, and she got worse right straight along until I struck this. Then she quit taking medicine, and hasn't taken a drop since, and is now well and hearty. “Is there any mummery about It?” “Well, I didn’t come here to tell what I know about it,” he replied. “The weather has been so bad that I haven’t got out to see the town; but I am not needed at home, so I'll stay until I see some of the sights. I went in to see the operatic show the other night, and I tell you it beats any singing school [ ever saw. My sakes, but ain’t they a pretty lot of girls. They are almost too fine to be of any account on a farm. “Have you laid your hands on any one since you came here?” “Yes, on some of my friends; One lady had ail awful sick headache. She got better right off. Another, who is a great nervous sufferer, is feeling lietter than for a long time. One fellow, who laughed at the idea, laughed out of the other side of his mouth when his rheumatic pains left him. “Oh, you’re going to put it in the Dis patch! Well, kinder trim it up a little, and don’t go and say that I am a doctor, for I ain’t.” HE WAS A TENDERFOOT. How a Fly and Much-Traveled Young Man Was Imposed Upon. From the Nevada City Herald, To a native Californian who has sjient his life in the mines the “tenderheel” or “green horn”—the fresh, unsophisticated young inan from the East—is an object of interest. The Californian who has grown to consider the golden West his own broad empire, and the greenhorn legitimate spoil, begins to set snares and traps for him as soon as he dis covers that he is a st ranger in the land of gold. Every man who comes from the East is not a greenhorn. Rut every now and then a simple, unsuspecting youth will drop into “camp” and ask questions about every thing he sees and hears. These are the vic tims of the miner's guile, and they generally “go through their paces,” unwillingly enough, but much to the delight of the “natives.” Several years ago one of these greenhorns visited North Sun Juan. He boarded the stage at (Biuartsville, and all along the route he kept up u rattling conversation with the driver, who was none other timu Mr. S the owner of the line. The young man had traveled, he had, and he was fly. Ho had guttered olives in Italy, and lin'd washed his loot in the Amo; he had made love to a beautiful girl in the vineyards of Frauce, and he had been a cavalier servonte in Seville. Ho hod viewed Melrose Abbey “in the soft twilight.” and he had handled the Violas on the pampass of Brazil. In fact, he was a very much traveled young man, and his knowledge of the world surpassed conject ure. Ho was ft “bleed” all through, and he wanted the driver of the trails-Snmrtville and Jimnental stage to remember it. But tho inuoli traveled traveler had never met Mr. H. before, neither had ho over boon in tho mining regions. The driver listened patiently, and some times reflected on the uncertainties of life and the fitness of things mortal, and won dered when the personified Tower of Babel would fall down. The fall catne sooner than he expected. They were (Kissing through by an old claim. Kain hod fallen the night lief ore, and in the hollows of the lied rock were many pools of yellow, muddy water. This excited tho curiosity of the traveler from away hack. For the first time he turned to the driver for Intormation. “Oh, I say. What makes that water so yellow, you know!” Mr. S.'s eyes lit up with a dangerous light, and he smiled inwardly as he said: “That yaller water? W’y, that’s gold that makes that water yaller." “Aw! gold: You don’t say so. I thought K°’d was—er —a solid, you know.” “So it air, when it's boiled down,” said Mr. S. It’s in solution now.” The traveler’s eyes stuck out. “Do—aw—you menu to say that the gold in that water is—er--hold in—in suspension? Do they boil it down?” “Certainly they do,” said Mr. S. “They scoop it up in buckets and haul it to the boilin’ works. Then it's boiled and melted and shipped away.” The man of the world was puzzled. He forgot to pose or smite his delicate young moustache. Presently he said: “I should think it would be stolen if left out in this way.” Mr. S. turned to him and answered gravely: “Try it, young man! There’s alius a guard here—at least, most alius; but may be he’s gone to his dinner now,” he added. Do you want to get some of that gold?” As he asked the question he checked his team, and the young man was sorely tempted. “I suppose now that it would-er be ({rand larceny if caught at it, wouldn’t it; “Wuss nor that,” said Mr. S. Then in a tragic whisper: “Young feller, it’d be mur der!” The tenderheel from the pampas turnod pale. “Would they hang me for it?” “Well,” said 8., “that depends. You might plead insanity.” “Oh!” They drove on slowly and entered town. “I say,” said S., suddenly. “I see the guard just now lyin’ drunk in that saloon we passed. Now, if you want some of that gold you can go back and get it. Take a big bucket,” he added, as the young man climbed out. “Here, take mine,” he added, pointing to ahuge one sitting in front of an old well. The young mail was pale but determined, and as he took the bucket S.colled to him iu a genuine stage whisper: “Remember that we’re parduers.” The young man who nad washed his feet in the Arno sped away, and S eped on into town. Meeting two friends, i< told them of the would-be thief, and they agreed to give him a surprise. Arming themselves with repeating rifles, they went down the road and found their man. He was standing by a deep, slippery pool, and his air of de termination was gone. So was his hat and bucket. From all his garments poured tiny streams of the golden-hued solution. His teeth chattered and his knees smote together when they accosted him. They ordered him to throw up his hands. Great tears came down his face and he fell upon his kneees and begged for bis life. “Don’t shoot, gentlemen. I—l’ll pay for this. I’ll pay for the bucket; it’s in there — in the gold. Oh, don’t hang me, for the sake of my poor old mother. I’ll leave town at once. For God’s sake, gentlemen, don’t shoot. I only wanted a little bit as a curi osity. Here, I’ll give you a dollar if you’ll let me go.” They finally concluded to let him go if he would give them $5 and they got it. Then they fished his hat out of the slime aud put it on his head and left him. Where he went nobody knows, but he was seen next in Yuba county, where he was asking an old anti-slickens man when the train left for Missouri. THE MASSACRE OF PIGEON ROOST' The Story of a Tragedy Enacted In Indiana in the Early Days. Pigeon Roost, writes Mr. A. W. Tobias in the Madison (Ind.) Conner, was the name of a small settlement formed in 1809, and was so-called from the innumerable pigeons that roosted in that vicinity. It was situ ated five miles south of Scottsburg, the pres ent county seat of Scott, and near the beau tiful stream that bears the memorable name until this day. At the time of the massacre most of the men were away from home. In the afternoon of Sept. 3, 1812, Elias Payne and a Mr. Collings, while out bee hunting one and one-half miles, from the present site of Vienna, wore surprised and killed by a party of Shawnee war riors.. Scalping their victims, they hastened toward the settlement, which they reached about sundown. In one short hour one man, five women and sixteen children were struck dead by the ruthless tomahawks of the fleAdish'savages. Among the killed were Henry Collings and wife, Mrs. Payne and her eight children, Mrs. Collings and her seven children, Mrs. John Norris, her only child and aged mother-in-law—for the aged were spared no more than the infant. Mrs. Biggs concealed herself and children in a sink hole, until the Indians became busily engaged in burning and plundering, when she fled, and succeeded in reaching the resi dence of her brother. John Collings, son of William E. Collings, had just caught a horse to go after the cows. when he saw an Indian approaching in a threatening manner. He dropped the rein and fled, pursued by the savage, who was gaining on him, when lie heard the report of his father’s rifle, and saw the sav age fall with the blood streaming from his breast. He succeeded iu reaching the house in safety. There were in the house William E. Golfings (whom the Indians well knew, and from his unerring aim named Long Knife), his two children, John and Lydia, and Capt. Norris. The}’ kept the Indians back until about dark. They knew that as soon ns it was dark enough for the Indians to approach the house without being seen they would set Are to it and bum them alive. They therefore decided to risk the fieri is of escape. Lydia went first, then her brother John, followed by Norris, and lastly “Ixing Knife.” As the latter was passing the corn-crib an Indian fired at him. He immediately raised his gun to return the fire, when he found that the ball fired by the savage had broken the lock of his gun. He hallooed to Noitls to bring him the other gun. but Norris was like the Irishman. “Ho had a brave heart but a cowardly pair of legs,” and they car ried him away, leaving Colling* to fight the Indians alone with a broken gun. When thev crowded him too close he would raise his gun and pretend that he was going to fire, and thus frighten them back; for they knew, from the many shooting matches in which ho came out second to none, that it was folly to stand before his aim. In this way he reached the com flield, under cover of which he escaped. After plundering the houses the Indians set fire to them, and most of the dead bodies, being within the houses, were thus con sumed. However, some of the children were pierced sharp sticks left sitting against trees. Their horrilA deed accom plished, the Indians started northward. A| large force of Clark county militia soon* gathered from thd vicinity of Charleston, which reached the scene of carnage, where the smoking remains of the cabins and charred bod ms presented the most horrible spectacle they had ever witnessed. They immediately pursued the savages to the Muscatatuck, which they found so much swollen that they could not effort a crossing, and were compelled to give up the pursuit. They then returned and buried the remains of the victims in two graves, about cue hun dred yards east of the J., M. and I railroad, and near what is since known as the Pigeon Insist of Bodon cemetery. At present there is nothing to show where the graves are ex cept throe or four rough stones find a largo sassafras tree, which is said to have wit nessed the event, but is now thought to be entirely dead.
