HENRY MAULE, 1711 Filbert St FMLUJELPfllA, PI WIGGINS FEELS VINDICATED. lie tails Attention to the Fact That II I oret f. Irl 4 Vi T? AOAht FftptfiAnak! In 'Vnvnn. Ottaw a, Ont., Feb. 20. Professor E. Stone "Wiggins, the weather prophet, calls attention to prophecies he made early last year that 1SS6 and 1S7 would be remarkable for their storms and earthquakes in the Western Hemisphere and in Wettern Europe, and points to the recent earthquakes in France ana Italy as a fulnlla ent of his predictions. Continuing his explanation he says: "In beptember I lofcrmed the trnhed people of Charleston that they had nothing to ftar in the immediate future, for te earthquake wave had moved eastward. This is the earthquake that has just broken out in France and Italy. Oa the 221 of March it will appear in a modified form tili farther to the Eastward. Bat it is from September 19 to October 2 that this earthquake wave and its accompanying storm and tidal wave will most interest us and the people of Europe. For several years I have sought to imoress upon scientists the fact that earthquakes are caused by the shifting of the earth's center of gravity, by certain lunar conjunctions with the sun, and to this theory several German astronomers have given their adhesion. I have also pointed out that the most violent wnmir d'&tnrhanrpq ncr.nr rponlnrlir pvprv ighteen years, the time of revolution of the oon s node. So that these same phenomna will be repeated at the vernal and aumoal equinoxes of the years 1901 and i; . "A dispatch from Eerlin the dav after the earthquake sajs: The nincn here call attention to the fact that ?ev?ral days ago there was published a statement jiti (ueinDumr eciipxjui me sun wouia De acmranied bv extremely etronz seismic phenomta, tvwine to tbe coincident uiiuence oi the sua aLd mooQ on the earth. TBS PARK MOOX. "As solar eclipses occur twice every year and luaar conjunctions ever month, it is ciear that the sun and nioou alone could not produce this phenomenon, and hence I cited this as a proof of the existence of a second satellite to onr planet. ".My prediction of the Charleston earthquake and the severity of the press and public during that period assured me with no uncertain voice that mankind considers him the greatest enemy who gives unerring warning of future evil. In 1S61 1 inaugurate! the theory that comets travel through space by the positive and negative forces of electricity seated in the sun. For this I was severely taken to task by the scientists and the press, but to-day this theory is indorsed by all the great astronomers of both hemispheres. My theory of earthquakes is about realizing the same fate." PAUPERS HORRIBLY TREATED. Craeltt Practiced Upon tbe Inmates ot a Virginia Poor-Oous. LscnBtno, Va., Feb. 20. The Daily Advance publishes a startling sensation from Amherst Court-house, concerning the horrible condition of the county poor-house as developed upon investigation by the Grand Jury. The female inmates complained of treatment too appalling to be described, and abuse from Superintendent Sydney M. Dawson which it is hardly possible to believe. It is questionable if such a den of infamy could be found elsewhere. The poor women were almost naked an3 one was discovered in a cold room Turnout fixe weariDg only an old calico wrapper. Vermin and filth were found in every department. The county authorities furnish the superintendent with bed clothing for use of paupers, bnt the Grand Jury found only five blankets, and all of them were in the possession of a mulatto woman, a favorite of the Superintendent. It was also discovered that nameless crimes were systematically carried on to ouch an extent that it was dangerous for respectable dependents to be sent there. The Grand Jury disgusted, reported the facts to the court, recommendirg the removal of the Superintendent and his arrest, which the court ordered immediately. To the Public The agency of Dorman N. Davidson for the Continental Insurance Company of New York has been cancelled for cause, and the public will please take notice that said Davidson is not authorized to collect money - or transact any business whatever for said Continental Insurance Company. By order of the company. K. N." Lepskv, State Agent. Foraker a Itoom. (Philadelphia Times. TLe appearance of Governor Foraker, of Ohio, in the character of a Presidential candidate la one of the latest moves in national politics. His recent speech in New York, which he himself admits having made for the first time more than three years ago, is being made the occasion for a boom ia his behalf and evidences of a literary buraau in an active state of eruption are beginning to appear. Letters from "active Kepubhcacs" and alleged "Independents" with a big I are creeping into the anti-Sherman paper?, generally those which have been demanding Mr. Elaine's renomination. The purpose of Mr. Foraker's friends is to Counteract Sherman's growing popularity among the thinking members of the Republican party, and, 11 possible, divide the Ohio delegation against him. It is even hoped that the entire delegation may yet be bagged by the Foraker gunners. Eeyond a doubt, Mr. Fcraker will be in the field if there ia any possible chance of securing even the tali end of the national ticket, bat he will have to ret up early in the morning to beat John Sherman in Ohio if the other leading candidates keep hands off. as It is said they will. "ion will confer a gre.t benefit on your friend who außer with dyspepsia and all kiads of Indigestion, by recommending lhem the use of Angostura Bitten.

Tfca Republicans Stick to Thsir Party's Policy and Stubbornly Refuse to Vote. ReTolatlonUta of the Homo Mast Shoulder the Responsibility If the Appropiia lion 1U1U Fall to Pa. There were but few loiterers about the Senate doors Saturday morning and no excitement. Colonel Robertson played his little part as on Friday, he and the Door-keeper holding the same dialogue and with the same result. Most of the Republican members were in their seats and observed a stubborn silence as on the preceding days. The Uemo:ratic tactics were changed and their sulking colleagues were excused from voting. The proceedings were opened with prayer by Mr.'Howard, of St. Joseph. Mr. McDonald introduced a bill electing Mr. W. H. Drapier Legislative stenographer. Mr. Duncan (of Brown), for the Committee on Kducation. reported on Mr. Thompson's (ot Marion) bill for compulsory education. The report favored the amendment of the bill and its passage after amendment. It provides for the compulsory education of all children under fourteen years for at least four months during the year. The same committee reported favorably on Mr. Pleasants' House bill, concerning the rate of interest on school funds; unfavorably on Mr. Duncan's (of Tipton) bill, concerning a general system of public schools; and favorably on Mr. Dancan's (of Brown) bill, authorizing the trustees of the State University to sell real estate. Mr. Day's bill, extending the provisions of the Metropolitan Police bill to cities of a population over ltiOOO, was read the second time and a favorable committee report read. Mr. Schloss moved to concor in the report, and Mr. Barrett moved as a substitute the indefinite postponement of the bill. Mr. Barrett's motion was lost and Mr. Schloss carried. The bill was ordered engrossed. Mr. Fowler's bill, requiring foreign insurance companies to pay judgments, was read the second time, a favorable committee report concurred in, and the bill ordered en grossed. Mr. Biil'v's bill, appropriating $10 00) an nually for the use of tne Indiana State Board of Agriculture, was called up aad put upon it? passage. Mr. French, is speaking favorab'y to the bill, explained that the present appropriation was $1 5u0. He said that agriculture paid more than half of the revenue derived froia taxation. The State Board of Agriculture receives $1000 annually ($2.500 for printing the report) .md agriculture pays into the treasury Sl.fiOOSO, or more than 400 fold. Messrs. Bailey, Peterson and Berry also favored the bill. It passed unanimously, the Republican members being excused from voting. Tie bill of the Senator from Laporte concerning life insurance was taken up and passed. On motion of Mr. Rahm the roll was called and each Senator allowed to take up one bill when his name was called. On motion of Mr. Tharp the roll was from bottom to top. Mr. Sellers, from the Committee on Judiciary, reported favorably on the constitutional amendments proposed by the last Legislature. One provides that the term of county officers shall be four years and that the same man shall be eligible but once; the other strikes out the word "white" before the word "person.5 Both ameadments were adopted. Mr. Zimmerman's bill, providing for compiling and printing of a State series of school books by the State Board of Education, and appropriating $25,0"0 for compilation, was taken up when the reversed roll-call began. The majoiity of the committee to whom the bill was relerred reported unfavorably to its passage, the minority favored its passage. Mr. Zimmerman moved to substitute the minority for the majority report, and in support of his motion read from manuscript a lengthy argument. He thought that the frequent changes of text-books were a great bar to the education of the poorer classes. Mr. Duncan, o f Brown, for the majority of the committee, spoke against Mr. Zimmerman's motion, lie said that a competent teacher had estimated for him that $150,000 were now invested in tchool books in the State. Mr. Duncan thought that the passage of the law would amount to the confiscation of this property. Mr. Bailey and Mr. Thompson, of Miami, spoke favorably to the bill. The minority report was adopted and the bill ordered engrossed. The following bills were then called up, read Ahe second time, favorable committee reports concurred in and the bills ordered engrossed: Mr. Buckle's House bill to provide for a live stock sanitary commission and a State veterinary.

Carter, Assistant Clerk of the Senate. On motion of Mr. Sellers it was amended to be a Senate resolution authorizing payment. Mr. Barrett's bill, for the better government of the State Prisons, was ordered engrossed. Tbe Senate then adjourned to meet Monday at 2 o'clock. Representative Barnes, In conversation with a Sentinel reporter yesterday, remarked that hisfcounty (Clark) had become somewhat conspicuous since the investigation tl the Southern Prison began. "Who will be the new Warden?" "I can name tbe man," replied Mr. Barnes. "From the time I became satisfied that there would be a change in the Wardenship I have been looking over the field, and have foand do person who, in my opinion, has more of the requisite qualifications for the position than Captain James B. 1'aUon. Now, while Mr. Patton is not an extra 'mixer,' and has not the art of handshaking down to as fiae a point as some others, yet he is a plain, common-sense business man, and possesses the rare combination of Jacksonian firmness and unimpeachable honesty, and withal is a kind-hearted man. He would enforce strict discipline, but he would not tolerate the least cruelty to be practiced." "And his chances are good?" "A few days ago I started a petition rec

ommending him, and It took In the Home like wildfire, and when I carried' it over to the Serate the result was the same. I believe Patton will be the next Warden of the State Prison South." Assistant Door-keeper Bulger, of the Senate, who prevented Colonel Robertson taking possession of the President's stand on Thursday, has received the following letter: Cincinnati, Feb. 2", 1S7. Mr. David Bvlger: Dear Sir I have enjoyed the account of your handling Colonel Robertson yesterday so much tht I am moved to mention it to you. IIa vi air Ixen Director for many years in the Cincinnati Gjmcasium, I herewith tender you the freedom of that tnstitutioa when joa are here for your natural lile looking: at the matter in a purely proIetioual light. Yours truly, E. P. Beidsteeet. Accompanying the letter is a card, reading: "Admit Dave Bulger whenever he calls." Should the appropriation fail, and the State be embarrassed for the next two year?, it will not be difficult to fix the responsibility where it belongs upon the Republican revolutionists of the House. The concurrent resolution printed below was passed by the Senate on Thursday, February 21. Secretary Dixon took it to the House and was refused admittance. He then sent a note to Speaker Sayre, saying he was there with an important communication from the Senate, and had been denied admittance.

'On May 14 last," writes a Salem, III., correspondent of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, 'Mr.W. I. Gain, who resides near Iuka,8ome six railf s east of her, within a short distance of tbe Ohio and Mississippi Railway, soon after he and his wile had retired for the night, heard a noise like the crying of a babe, lie concluded it was the rustling of the wind or some other thing not unusual, aud was soon wrapped in sit e p. On his awakening the next morning the same noise was again heard by Mr. Gain. He arose, and hastily putting on his habiliments, proceeded from the house toward the railroad, from whence the noise came. To his great surprise, sure enough, enclosed in a sack was a baby, which be at once picked up and carrieito the house. Assisted by hia wife, the sack was opened, and upon further examination the babe was found tobe scarcely a week old, a female, considerably bruised, it unquestionably having been dropped from the east-bound express train as it pas3ed that point that night. Its eyes were terribly swollen, the result of its long night of crying out of doors in the cool air. The little stranger was at once cared for. and it was made as comfortable as its condi.ioa under tbe circumstances would permit. Many of the neighbors who had heard of the matter visited the Gain family and viewed the little waif. Some of them desired to adopt it, but Mr. and Mrs. Gain had previously concluded it should remain with them. The little foundling rapidly recovered, and its foster parents named it Pearl. They visited this city on last Thursday, and the presence of the little castaway here created no little interest among the citizens, many of whom saw it and marveled at its beauty and intelligent features. "While Mr. and Mrs. Gain are not possessed of much of this world's goods, little Tearl is as kindly cared for and as much loved by them as though she were in reality their true child.
