THE EFFECT OF FEAR.
Imagination a Potent Factor in Acquiring
Fatal Disease.
"Of the - whole number of persons
supposed to die of disease," said a
prominent physician the other day, "I
uliould say that at least fifty per ceftt.
are really carried away by fear. Were
it not for this element mortality would
be far less than it is."
In support of this statement hp cited
various eases where the element of fear
had entered largely in as a potent fac
tor to persuade people that their time
had come. Presentiments, prophecies,
premonitions and peneral nervousness
all played their part. On the other
hand, a short time apo a patient of a
New York hospital was frightened into
petting well. This man was brought
in an ambulance, supposedly- dying
from heart failure.
lie was laid on a table anda diag
nosis showed him to be suffering with
hysteria. The surgeon turned to one
of his assistants and, asking for a knife,
remarked that he would cut down to
the heart and find what the trouble
was. Ihe patient gave a j-cii :inn,
leaping from the- table, started for the
door. Remonstrance was in vain. That
man was cured and never came back.
Some time ago four criminals, con
denmod in iiussia to die, were taken to
a house and shown several bads, in
which they were told a number of
cholera "patients had died. As a mat
ter of fact, the beds were new, never
having been slept in. The criminals
were informed that they would be set
at liberty if they would undergo the
ordeal of sleeping several nights in tho
beds. From the prisoners' point of
view it was a possible, though a des
perate, chance of escape. They one
and all decided to take the chances. At
the end of the time prescribed two
r were uninjured and went free, but the
others developed all the symptoms and
died of Asiatic cholera.
Two physicians determined to take
advantage of the impressionable mind
of a female patient and prove a theory
for the benefit of science. The lady
had complained of an itching on her
back. She was told that a blister
would be applied. Instead, a common
postage stamp was applied, and, so
runs the chronicle, performed all the
offices of the plaster which was not
there. ' .
A college professor was once the sub

How th Information Will he Used.
Mr. Lovering, president of the Ark

only use that would be in;ide of the
information thot had been obtained
would be to present them to the Ark
wright club, which was a close organ
ization, but that it was likely that
something wo. iid get out about the
report. While the committee docs not
indicate when or where a large cotton
mill will be located as a result of the
investigation, 'mill men who accompa
ny the party sy that it would not be
good business t:ict to say anything up
on such .mat Vers,, but that they are
thoroughly .satisfied that the careful
and systematic inquiry that is being
made will result in tlie building of at
least one la rge mill in which New Kn

The committea has express-d itself
as being ..particularly struck with the

there was so much available native

SENATE REORGANIZATION.
Republicans M.y U:tve IMilit-iKy In Fill
ing tlie Finance Committee.
Washington, April C In the gossip
about the reorganization of the senate
it is hinted that the probabilities are
very great that the republicans will
have difficulty in choosing a" successor
on the committee on finance to Senator
McPherson. The filling of the pl.-iCe
will, in all probability, he the first con
test which will occur in the next con
gress between the silver men and the
anti-silver men. and tho fight will be
none the less fierce because fought un
der cover. It in intimated that the
lines may be drawn so sharply that re
organization may be delayed or even
defeated by it.
The silver men now have a majority
of one in the committee, five or six men
constituting this majority being demo
crats. The silver men are also, in the
majority in the senate, but will be in
the minority in the republican caucus.
Under ordinary circumstances the
caucus would control, and in that event,
and if left free to act nntrammeled,
there is said to be no doubt an anti
silver man would le selected for the
vacancy. The silver republicans have,
it is said, already given notice that the
place must be filled with a man from
their ranks aud say that in case of fail
ure to make this concession they will
oppose reorganization and leave the
matter with the democrats, who would
in all probability fill the -vacancy with
a free silver man. Republican sena
tors have generally manifested a dispo
sition to make the concession, but there
are some who are disposed to hold out
against it, so that it is not absolutely
settled that the silver men shall have
their own way about it.

Jacksonville. Fla., April 8. Brit
Glenn, commonly known as "ivid Char
lie." a negro gambler an! desperado,
ran amuck here' early yester.lay morn
ing and as a result two men are dead
and three wounded, one of them prob-
i ably fatally.
The killed are: Napoleon Stucks, a
negro porter employed in Ricker's aa
loon; shot in the throat and his neck
broken. tEdward Minor, jioliceman;
shot through the hearU. The wounded
are: Jim demons, a negro commonly
known as "Rag Jim"; shot in the right
thigh; artery severed and may die.
Jaines Minor, ' lieutenant of police;
shot in the ankle; wound slight. Ne
gro lxotblackname unknown; shot in
the right thigh; wound slight.
The rirt Man Hi led.
Stucks was tho first man killed by
Glenn and it was while resisting ar
rest that he killed I'olieeman Ed Minor
and wounded others whose name are
given above. Sucks was killed in the
"Rabbitt Foot" saloon, a notorious
dive on West bay street. A crowd of
necroes were ia the saloon and Glenn
drew a pistol on a negro named Willie
Manninir. Stucks iokinglv said that
he would take the pistol away from
Glenn, and advanced toward him. He
passed by Glenn, however, and went to-
ward a room in the back part of the
saloon. As lie u eared the door, Glenn
pulled out his pistol and tired striking
Stucks in the throat. As stxm as Stucks
was shot, he rushed out of the front
door of the saloon, and fell dead near
the steps. Ulenn turned and fled as his
victim was' falling, pursued by a
large crowd of negroes who soon lost
sight of him in the darkness.
Shortly after,Lieutenant Minor, Sher
iff l'owilen and other official 9 arrived
on the scene and bepan an organized
seareh for Glenn. All the negro dives in
the western portion of the city were
searched and about 5 o'chick the oih
cers started their g-ame headed for East
Jacksonville. "
Discovered in a Itnrn.
Filially the murderer, by desperate
spurts, succeeded in leaving all behind.
Ky this time the chase had led into
East Jacksonville and the oilleers were
gathered near Hotel Koselaud, com
pletely at fault. Just as they were
about to ab.M'.ilon the pursuit in that
direction, a little boot-black, who was
afterwards wounded, came running up
and said that he had seen the negro
running into a b.iru near the hotel.
Policeman El Minor and Lieutenant
Jim Minor were tiie first to enter, fol
lowed by "Rag Jim." one of the negro
pursuers, and the little boot-black.
Glenn had' climbed to the loft and was
lying- behind a pile of lumber, which
formed an effectual barricade, i Lieu
tenant Minor called on ( Mean to sur
render and the negro answered with a
shot. The officer returned the Tire,
emptying their pistols, but the negro
was effectually protected by the pile
of lumber. - ' .

The fusillade continued for ten
minutes and of the four men who
had entered the barn to arrest !lenn.
one was dead and two were wounded.
The dead man being Policeman Minor.
Lieutenant James Minor, however, was
still in the barn firing at lllenn who
lay in safety behind the lumber. Sud
denly Glenn rose up and tired and droj
ped back behind the lumber.' Then
Lieutenant Minor felt his ankle give
way and knew that he was wounded.
I5ut the shot that wounded the lieuten
ant had exhausted Glenn's ammunition
and the next moment he .had surren
dered. . !
The lieutenant led the negro towards
the city jail, followed by an immense
crowd clamoring for the negro's blood.
Later there were rumors that a
mob was forming to storm the mil and
lynch the negro, and the officers in or
der to run no risks removed" the negro
secretly from the jail, rowed him across
the St. Johns river, flacged down the J
train for St. Augustine, when it passed,
and carried the negro to the Ancient
City, where he was placed in jaiL
