IXBisos, April 17. -The organization ol a lincoln League Club at Brown's Grand OperaIiou.se ia this city Friday night afforded the Republican State officers and Speaker Warren G. E&jre an opportunity to display their spreadeagle oratory and boom their little boomlets. Superintendent LaFollette was master ol ceremonies, assisted ably oy Captain Felix Shumate, late assistant doorkeeper of the House, who has spent the past week enthusing the boys la the vicinity. Say re arrived on the early aftersoon train from the west, thus eluding the committee which had been selected to receive him. The balance of the hippodrome, consisting of Grin. Carr, Lemcfce and others, came in at 6:15 trom Indianapolis, and were welcomed by the land and a sprinkling of the faithful, who escorted them to the opera-house. Two hoars were spcut in organising a Lincoln League Club, Dr. I'. C. Scull presiding. Speaker Sayre was chief orator, and he indulged In some very disgusting and silly talk. He said that the Democratic party never had but two positions Slavery and free , whisky: that if he had to pass through another session of the General Assembly he would counsel very vigorous measures In rjealirg witbrDernocrats, intimating that war would be declared. The show continued until a late hour, and all aspiring Republicans were given an opportunity to gTind their political axes. It has not been learned whether or not tbe whisky was free. The people of Lebanon and Vicinity were very much x disgusted with the who e proceeding. It is eighteen months until te election, and to begin a campaign of slander now does not strlka the masses who Co not depend cpoa political spoil far a livelihood very favorably. A Haunted Mine. Böaz::., April 17. A coal miner, It is said, seldom sees a ghost: when he does ot course it is genuine. He dreams dreams and sees visions, and is withal superstitious; but his life is spent in the darkness of the mine where alienee fcroods but objects are scarce. He has leisure lor thought. Now and then silence becomes noisy with faint, airy echos too tangible for re ality. The lamp that flickers on his cap oftei bums low and dies out entirely amid current' Of foul air, imperiling his life. These are the times of ghostly presence, if ever. The Woman in B ack that haunts the Wyoming Valley is a verity. Old miners here still shudder at the thought of the wraiths of Mollie Maguire victims among the Pennsylvania hills. A short time since a young miner employed in one of our mines near this city was drawn up much earlier than usual, end long before he could hsve cleared up the co. loosened by the blast the preceding night. He complained of LeiDtrsick. On being questioned he hesitated to name his ailment. Finally he said he had Eeen a ghost! He was at work In his room. When suddenly his lamp spluttered, then died Out in a thin blue flame. A poor miner, who Quarreled with his w!:e before going to work one morning, two or three years ago, was Crushed under fallin slate in the mine, and the Supernatural appearance is directly traceable to him. A bent, crushed figure, with a troubled look ou his face, is what has been dimly seen, and Is believed to wander amid the subterranean ch ambers as if In quest of some boon.

A STRANGE STORY.

Tks Rjiuca of ai Lapd Convict From Jelarmville Peaitastiary. L Prlftoii Gard Receives Ten ThaanDd Dollars aod Liberates a Life-Sentenced Marderer Its Troth Verified. I Louisville Ti!ues 1 That tliere is a tinge of romance In erery man's life and a skeleton in every closet Is every day becoming more evident. About two years ago Charles Bremen, a well-to-do gentleman who lives In Jeffersonvllle, but who formerly lived in Germany, concluded to ray a visit to the Fatherland. After seeing the sights in the great cities and shaking hands with his old frieuils, be found himself inStuckhardf, about ten miles troin the city of rile, on the Carpathian Mountains. He registered at a Uaint little inn, and wrote opposite his came "JeUersonville, Ind., r. S. A." After eatiDg dinner, about such as one would imagine could be found in such a quiet little hamlet, he walked out to the veranda, near where the register ! stood on a small, old-fashioned desk, and was soon interested in the American telegraphic news. Iu a short time he saw the jolly old inn-kceper walk up to the registerand when he reached his guest's name be suddenly grew pale and looked as if he had seen a ghost. At length the landlord walked over to the gentleman, and tremblingly asked what business he followed in Jeilersonvllle, ana how long he had lived there. When informed that the American was merely a business man, and was only over on a visit to his old friends, the landlord heaved a sigh of relief and the color came back to his checks. Several days afterward the guest decided to take a ramble over the white-capped summit of a neighboring mountain. His host volunteered to accompany him, and after several hours of weary cllmbiDg they found themselves upon the highest point. Being tired, they sat down )on a huge moss-covered rock. Suddenly the old man, whose hair and beard were silvery while, and whose step was tottering, turned to his youthful companion and said, in a strange, ubuatural tone: "Io you know that I have wanted to talk to you for several days? I at one time lived la Jeffersonvllle. Did you ever hear of (haneCoetz'."' The young man replied that he had not, and asked where and under what circumstances this old inn-keeper could have beeu In America. After musing awhile the old man replied- in response to the young man's inquiries: "Well, it's a long story, but I will tell it to you. because I am satisfied no harm can come of it now. My mother was a rich woman, and I was her only son. We kept this very same hotel sixty years ago, and I was born cnler its ancient roof. In 1SU the New World offered flattering inducements to our young men, and alter consulting with my most intimate friend ot those days, William Gross, we concluded to brave the perils of an ocean voyage and the dangers of being scalped by Indians, and despite the tearful entreaties of my aged mother we went away. Oh. it was an awful thing for me. We stopped in New York, but there the cry was 'Westward ho,' and toward the Occident we turned our footsteps. "Arriving in Jeffersonvllle we both secured work with a butcher named John C. Steward. We got small pay and worked hard. Xear us lived a young gardener Earned Em lie lleAz. He had charge of a large summer garden. lie was a good fellow, and we all soon became firm friends. Every night, while drinking beer together, we would talk of the Fatherland, and wish ourselves back at home. "One night, I remember It well was the 1st of March, 1S15, we came in town as usual. The; devil must have possessed me that night, We were all pretty drunk, and at a late hour started for home. When near the outskirts of the city Gross called me aside and told me it ever I wanted to get home now was the chance to do so. HerU had money, he said, and it would be an eay matter to kill him and take it. After much persuasion I consented. We then slipped behind the unsuspecting man, and Gross struck him with a hatchet. The poor fellow dropped without a groan, his brains befpatterlDg the sidewalk. Trembling with fear we carried the body across a commons and buried it iu a manure pile. That night sleep tever visited my eyes. All night long 1 lay and thought of the awful crime In which I wjv a participant. We secured but two silver loJlars rem the dead body, which we divided. "Next morning Hertz was missed, and larse I artics searched hi?h and low for him. We iu our bloody clothes joined in the search to ward oü suspicion. At length a small boy who drove a cart taw a human arm sticking out of the maLiue pile. Tke oflicers came, the body was taken out and we were almost crazy kst we should be suspected. The body was found to be wrapped In my coat. I had thrown it over his face to keep od the dirt. "We were arrested aud the next morning were given a preliminary hearing in an old markethouse near the river. Our clothes were bloody and guilt was depicted on every feature. Well, to make a long story short, we were found guilty, arter the trial, which was taken to New Albany on a change of venue, and both were sentenced to be hanged. I was a bright-faced youth of twenty-four years that was thirty five years ago. Governor Wright commuted my sentence to Imprisonment for life. "In June. 1S50, poor Gross was hanged, and' I was placed in prison. I wrote to my mother atd told her the whole circumstances. She gathered together what money she could and came to see me. She stopped at Louisville, across the river, and hired a detective to assist me in escaping. It cost her 110,000 to get me out, but she did so. A ?uard was bribed, and be let me out one dark, rainy night. We went to LoKisviUe. where I got citizen's clothes and after much trouble reached the Atlantic seacoast. We boarded a ship, and I was soon on my way to home and freedom. I married, and the pretty girls you see about you are my daughters. They little know the terrible secret I have kept for thirty-five years. "I hardly know why I have told you thi story, but you must promise never to repeat it, at least not on this side of the ocean." Mr. Bremen told a Times rerorter of the matter, and Intimated that be did not believe it, thinkirg the old mau was crazy, and that this story was simply one of his hallucinations. The reporter, however, thought perhaps there nit;;ht be something in It, and searched among the musty old records for the case. At length he found it, and, after talking with a number of old citizens, learned that every detail as given in the old man's narrative was true. The name of the puard who w as bribed was always thought to 1-e Ed Schell. He was suspected by the warden and was discharged. Twenty-five years later he came into prison a convict, and served two years for arson. He had set fire to his own house In order to secure the insurance. He died a pauper.

Hall, who killed her husband in Chicago last year and was acquitted on the ground of self-defense, is dying of consumption at the home of her parents in Lexington. Ky. She sent a relative to obtain from tbe police certain jewelry and clothing taken from herself and the corpse of her husband, for which the jail oilicials obtained her receipt. At the close of business last week an easier feeling prevailed for wheat, corn and oats, but rye ruled firm and barley steady, while flour sold fairly, with prices more than usually well sustained. Provisions, however, developed a weaker tone, and were dull, but cnan ea la prices were of little mordent. Groceries remained ßrra, dairy prod acts sieady and general nief chandise quiet. The loan market is easier, with currency plenty, while Rastern fxcbs js strpng; securities were qa'ct and easier In tone. The New York bank statement is favorable for an easy money market at that point. Rheumatism, neuralgia., stomach derangements, nervousness, sleeplessness, are all the result of catarrh.

TS, -srr..:.::.:'V In returning thanks to you for my miraculous cure of eezema, or salt rLeum. 1 deem it advisable to give Ou a detailed account of my case, and as there is and alwajs will te a prejudice against advertised remedies, you have my eon- I sent to publish this testimonial, and all inquiries, by letter or person, I will cheerfully answer. I do this that people who go on year after year paying out large sums of money to Incompetent physicians ana receive bo cure, or even relief, or end 1h fillirg a premature grave, as was nearly my ease, mav be induced to make trial of tbe wonderful I'uthtea Remedies. At the age of three months a rash made its appearance on my face. A phjsic:an was called: he said teething was the cause; he prescribed soice cooling medicine, but the sores spread to my ears and head. Another M D. was called. He professed to krow all about the rase; called it King's Evil," and prescribed gunpowder, brimstone ai.'d latd mixed it;oasaive, but tbe dises5e cor. tinned Tbev conld cot do anythir g with it. Another prescribed borax, water and flour; another, linseed poultices. None of them did rue any good at all, but made me worse. The disease continued unabated; it spread to my aims and :eg, till I was laid up entirely, and from continual sittir s; on the floor on a pillow my limbs contracted to that 1 lost all control of them, and was utterly help.'ess. My mother would have to lift me out auu iuto bed. I could get around tbe house on my hands aid feet, but 1 cculd not pet my clothes on at air-aud bad to wear a sort of dresstDg gown. My hair hud all matted down or fallen c2. ard my bead, face acd ears were ose srsb, and I hl to have a towel on my head all the time in tfce SHrurctr to kct p the fl.es o5. My pareuts consulted a prominent physician and kwgecn h're in Chicago (the Ct-EIl'bysif iaus beure mentioned were of Dufcoas and Hamilton, Canada): he said he could !o ncthlijg for me; that tre chanc s ure I would grow ovd of it, or that it would strike inwardly and kill me ia time. lie wanted to cut the sines of my lr gs so t b t I could va'k. but I would rot let biro, for if 1 Uid get better I would have no control ol them. Tte disease continued la this mairer nr. til 1 was seventeen jears old, a"d one dav iu January, 179. in the Chicago Tiibui.e. I nai a'i account of your medicines.
