Snr Bidfoid, July 19.—It is impossible

considerations stated in dollars and cents.
Some are youog and some are old, others
again are attractive in manner and in form,
but thi re aro still others who by the gcncrul
consent of mankind are conceded to be
pretty. The ladies are interested in them
became they are said to be beauties, and ix
there is one thing more than another that a
woman is bound to find out, it is what there
is in a another woman’s face that is said to
be beautiful. In the efforts to find this out
other little matters of detail come to their
observation, aud the consequence is that
what
THE OTHEB LOUIES
don’t know is not worth knowing. As for
the men, they are always interested in a
wood, for the benefit of the company’s
cr-ditors. The furnace was established
in 1882. The nominal capital stock of the
company was $500,000. The mines produce
valuable ores, but depression in the iron
business for the past few years compelled
suspension of the company.
It is snid that ab jut$150,000 of unsecured
d tbts will probably prove u total loss. Maoy
small creditors are ruined, and the stoppagi
of the works has caused much hardship
among tho miners and other operatives.
One of tho Grange county banks is said to
have lost $75,000 by the failure.

that the tugs were buried at times. The

A BTltANOE DELUSION.
Ohio Fanatics Who Worship a Woman as
Christ.
CixcnofaTt, July 17.—One of the most
remarkable religions manias of which there
is any record has broken ont in a little cir
cle in this city. A party of thirty or forty
people, most of them prominent and abovo
the average in intelligence, believe that
Mrs. John B. Martin, of Walnnt Hills, i*
Christ manifest in the Arab, and that her
sister, Mrs. John F. Brooks, ia tho Holy
Ghost. The followers of these two women
meet at Mrs. Brooks's bouso and worship
them both. Mrs. Martin has exerted
soma strange end wonderful in
fluence that has pnt them com
pletely in her power, and they are fanatics
ou the subject. One of the followers of
this woman-Chriat ia named Jerome. Ha
was a bookkeeper here for tbs Cincinnati
mveney of D. Appleton A Co., the New
York publisher*. He gave np his position
of $1,818) a year to serve the female Saviour
of mankind. To an Enquirer reporter who
saw him to-day he said in an earnest and
eloquent conversation: “I have seen God
face to face in the last half honr.
A young man named Cook, who works in
the auditor’s office of the Adams l-.xpn
Company, has also keen captured. He
resigned his position, end has attached him-
self to the new caste. They believe that ol
churches ere frauds, and the preachers a sat
of fools. Accounting for the fact that Christ
should manifest himself in a female
they say that in heaven there era no sexes
and the Saviour is as liable to appear in
a woman os in a men. Mrs. Martin, tna
•‘New t hrist,” and Mrs. Brook, the “Holy
Ghost,” they aay, are the only two perfect
women on earth, and that tna millennium
U at hand. This movement has been going
on qaietly for a year without becoming gen
erally known. The women seclude them-
selvn, and wUl not be seen by any one
who is not a worshiper, or vouched for
by one of them. Many have Mid their
homes and token houses near the woman
on the hill Those who have given up
their positions say they do net need aoik
or money. At! they need is apintual food,
and this will be furnished by the Lord,
just as it was furnished to the children
in the wilderness.

masher" until the culminating stage is
reached in the desire to transplant the
beautiful flower to some private garden.
The other ladies note and com
ment upon all these grades of admirers
and the young woman is criticised
aud talked about until one wonld think
that her ears would become flames of
fire if there was any truth in the old prov-
etb. But nothing of this sort happens to
the ears of the beauty and while at times
she may lament her fate and bewail the un
kindness of her sex, still her oheek docs not
palo nor her figure waste, but she continues
to bloom amid the speechless as well as the
fondly voluble devotion of her male ndmir-
Somehow it ia always at once appar
ent to the senses, when one enters a i oom
where one of these beauties is devoting her
energies to her daily toil. Thoro Is an at
mosphere of sweetness and light about the
room which perhaps may be attribu
ted to the floweta on her desk
some feminine trifles which relieve
the non-n-H hntio hartenness of the
’overnmeut office, but sach adjuncts are
ound in other rooms where ladies are at
work and so the explaoation is not adequate.
It is there, however, whatever the explana
tion may be and tho yonog man who lias
jnst bi-httn hi* career and the older youxti
man who bos been at it some years feel am
appreciate it, as soon as tiiey approach the
room. The lawyer’s clerk who has busi
ness before the department and the lawyer
himself as well ts the numerous army of
claim sgenta all know where the pretty girl
sits on her throne. She has the power of
making her circle of acquaintance very large
and in the course of time it actually bu
comes rather extended. Everybody tells
her that she is
TUE PBRTIEHT OIBL
in the department, and if the had not her
mirror aud the eyes of her admirera to con
vince herself of the fact she could arrive at
some conclusion ot this sort based upon the
flowers and truit that era sent to her the
smiling attention that ahe receives and the
invite ions ont to luuch. The hours devoted
to toil are enlivened by the occasional call,
tee brief stroll in the corridor, and while
the now era of reform may be supposed to
change all this, yet the pretty girl rises
superior to all such regulations. She re
cetves attention, she goes out to lunob, and
in tho evening ahe may be seen radiant at
the theater. Some nay that the pretty de
partment girl never gets married, but In
ever that may be ahe managsa to enjoy life
whila aha ia young, and ahe generally re
mains young nntrl some rival appears on
the scene with superior attractions. There
is a difference of opinion as to what ulti
mately becomes of the beauties ot the de
partments. Some think that ahe grows old,
while others assart that she gets married.
Veteran observers of deportment life main
tain that the ladles aeldunt gat married, but
this theory baa been oontradicted with con
siderable neat by others, who claim that the
matrimonial material in the departments '
as likely to oome into the active market os
similar material in fashionable society.
A MAN’S TBBUIULK LEAP.
He Attempts SulcMe by .lumping From a
Ledge or ltoeliM.
Rixihehieb, N. Y., July 10.—About 11
o’clock this morning people in the vicinity
of Genesee r»rk wore horrified to eco a inn
jump trim tho ledge of rocks over the falls,
a distance ot 130 (eel The authorities
conducted a search, and on the rocks in a
lump at the water's edge was found the
body of the unfortunate man. His clothes
were oovered with mud, and his head was
badly cut and bleeding from half a dozen
outs. He was • shapeless mass, and at brat it
was thought that death hud been instanta
neous, but this was not the case, and na
soon os ii was learned that life was not ex
tinct, a bed of branches covered with long
weeds was made, and the man was placed
upon it Everything win done to revive
him. For half au hour the labor was appar
ently in vain, the only indication of life
being an occasional twitchiDg of the month.
The efforts were renewed, however, and
about 11:30 o’clock the eyes of the
man were pertly opened and the
poor fellow breathed quite freely. The city
ambulance wh eh had been called arrived
shortly before 12 o'clock, und the meu
was carried np the steep bank. It was by
no meson an easy tank, aud more than once
it woB thought that the job was n hopeless
one. The declivity was muddy and slippery
and covered with long weeds, the ]>aths
hardly admitting free passage to one person.
Tim dilllnnltv under which the retiming
party labored may be imagined when it is
stated that at two or three points it was
nectssary to place the man they were car
rying on his side and turn a sharp corner
in thut way. The top of tho bank was fin
ally reached, and the man was placed in
tho ambulance and conveyed to tho City
Hospital.
Nobody could he found who was able to
identify the would-be suicide. In his pock
ets were a number or business cards ui vari-1
ous houses in Cleveland, an old card with
the name ”H J. Gonldsborough, Muskegon,
Mich,” written on it, a telegraph blank,
with the name of "J. J. Flaherty, South
Byron, N. Y.” A dainty little card bore
this imeription: “Bj this, myhandwritiup,

the man's name was Charles J. Gibbs, and
that he is a fresco painter. lie was a stran

AT BREAKFAST WITH GLADSTONE.
PiTTsnuno, Pa., July 17,—Professor Jean
Jarenaki, of Paris, spent yesterday in the
city cramming the methods of drilling gas
wells and casing off the water in them. He
left last night for the West, where he goes
to inspect the wonderful maguetie springs
ia tho southern part of Michigan, Piofes-
s ir Jarentaki is a Polish engineer, who has
I-.--;- : l- I1M.I- t'l '-I. ' r: -. i I.-V.-lupin, 'its.
He has written extensively of the develop
ment ot electrical machinery aud has pat
ented many appliances now used in France
in electric lighting.
The theory upon which he is now nt work,
is thut at some depth there may be found a
stratum of mineral which is heavily charged
with magnetic electricity which may be
brought to the surface and utihz d. This
theory has received partial continuation in
the existence of maguetie wells iu Europe
aud in this oouutly. As tho-e of Michigan
sre in a location which could bo usfd in
connection with tho power to build manu
factories, an essential which none of the
others possess, a syndicate of Frenchmen,
believers iu rite theory, has seat l’rof.s-or
Jarentaki ht-re to experiment upon
the subtile force. The wells aro now
flowing water from the depth of 890 feet so
highly charged with electricity that a knito
blade or a steel bar held in the water for a
few moments becomes highly magnetized.
The wate.s have became celebrated in the
vi’iDify ,nr it'—le hauling nnw«r when used
for nervous diseases or”dcliiUty. In con
nection with their history is the story that
while under way the drillers were astonish
ed to find that the atiing of tools became
magnetized, and that even the rope bristled
with the charge of electricity carried from
the tools. A steel lino used iu measuring
the depth became charged and it wns witu
difficulty that the well was put down to tire
water.
Professor Jarentaki from thess fact* has
become imbued with tho idea that th-
electricity can be fouud, collected and mas
tered, that when found it will turn the
wheels of many mills and without fuel or
labor will supply an almost inexhaustible
power. With this idea bn wilt visit the
wells end examine their history. If con
vinced of the presence of the force he will
at once have a well sunk to the stratum
which devo oped the electri-.-i-y before.
Should his venture prove a sncce.vs ha w i I
at once hi gin the practical test. A collector,
to which the wires leading from the
surface are attached, and which
will lie crowned with n gl
oep, will be pl.ic d in the bottom of the
Well, rvstiug ou ihe impregnated structure.
The wires wilt he h- avtly insulated to pre
vent the loss of power to tne caring of the
well, aud will lead to the experimental mo
tor sit nntsri on the surface. The negative
pole will lie connected with the earth. Thia
circuit, it ts expected, will be strong enough
t> develop tho fub power of the engine
and enal-le a calculation as to thb amount
of power wbicn may he taken from one
If the experiment proves a success, the
land will bu takcu up und wells drilled end
tower supplied for manufactories. The
french companies are under thn impression
that auy manufacturing enterprise, (or
which no steam for healing purposes is
needed, can be carried on with the eioolrical
power.

Mr. Heectier'e Itnpreealuus of the Fremler
lie Gleaned In Couvereatlon.
London, Jalyl7.—If Mr. Gladstone were
in America and Beecher had aaked him to
breakfast at his house on Columbia Heights,
in Brooklyn, every newspaper in the United
in iii uviniv xi, cicij uu" ijiujivi iu iuu
State* would have had a column or more
concerning the event, and if everything
that was said and done npon inch a historic
occasion were not faithfully chronicled the
fault could not bo laid at tho doer
of American newspaper enterprise.
Mid this to Mr. Beecher to-day
in the hope of extracting some
modicum of news as to what bed transpired
*t the breakfast to which Mr Gladstone
hsu invited himself and Dr. Parker to-day.
But he simply smiled aud held his peace.
"If anybody In Amerina feel* interested In
what occurred," aril Mr. Bi rcher, in n-
spci.se to my questions, "I should be glad
to gratify them, bnt respect for the sanctity
of hospitality forbid* my doing to. 1 was
Mr. Gladstone's guest and it would neither
be becoming in me nor respi-ctfal to him to
prate about what was said or done.”
“I do not hesitate to say that Sir. Gbvl
stone’s conversation heightened very much
the impression I had formed of him by his
public speeches. The breadth of bi* knowl
edge, hi* wonderful vivacity, the accuracy
of his fignrre and his historical statements,
the chastened enthusiasm and the versatil
ity displayed might have been expected in
a man at mid-life, but in one verging on to
eighty it was moatriking and wondertnl.'
It waa plain to be seen that Mr. Beecbe
wu very enthusiastic over the result of
his meeting with Gladstone, of whom and
his cause he has always been an admirer,
and that something htd transpired to arouse
in him ths expectation that even ptome rule
for Ireland was not such a hopeless cause
si the result of the elections would seem to
indicate. Dr. Porker wu u uncommuni
cative about the affair u lieechar. Fr»m
another ooarce come information that the
breakfast party consisted of eight, includ
ing two of the most prominent Home Rulers
in Parliament and two literary men well
known to the world. The break fast and sub
sequent talk lasted from 10 o'clock until
after 12, the conversation being largely
S ven to what hns b,. n thought to bo “the
•t cause." Mr. Gladstone wu vivacious
and fall of spirits, and gave strong hope to
his gouts that the end wu not yet by any
means. Mr. Be her preaches at West-du
ster to-morrow morning. Un Monday night

Nunvttu, Tens., July 19 —A sensation
al shouting affair occurred hern 1 ist night iu
which fire persons were injured, two of
them seriously.
P. N. Monahan bu been o-m-ting Miss
Laura Caitney for two years or more. Per
a time, they were engaged, hat Monahan
being very jealous, annoyed her so much
by watchiDg and fault-finding, that aho re
cently broke their engagement. Last night
Mtu Certney aud some of tho neighbors
were sitting in the parlor singing when
Monnhnn entered the room, pistol iu hand,
and, without a word, ihot Miss Cartncy in
the hud. He then shot John Him, tho ball

ed by n button, so as to prevent a fatal
wound. He next shot Mrs. Cartney through
that an. Mi Ospp, who Mm *
ed to disarm him, reoaivad a bul
through the hand.’.and stepping into tho
balL.Miiiudian then shot himself in the
head*. His own wound and that of Mia*
Cartney are perhaps fatal.
The affair caused thu greatest excitement
aud there were determined threats of lynch
ing; which wu only prevented by tho quick
arrival of the police, who carried him
jail as quickly u posaible. Monahan
delirious, and keeps repeating that Lvura'i
