THE COIiUMIilA SIj.-VNDIOK SUIT.
Technical Testimony of Col. JnmcH
liloii as An Expert In Ilniitlwritin;;
With Some Hnowli'dgc of Moilfcluc.
( Special Dispulcb to the News ami Courier.)
Columbia November 24.? When the
trial of the slander suit was resumed in
the Court of Common i'leas this morning
it was evident from the crowded appearance
of the Court room that the interest
heretofore manifested in the case
had not in the slightest degree abated.
Witness said : "I am a practicing attorney.
I am, what few are, an expert
in handwriting. I have natural talrnt
in discerning similarity and dissimilarity.
1 have studied everything on the
subject, and have taken lessons from experts
is to discovering counterfeit bank
bills. 1 tbink 1 am the first person who
discovered the method of detecting
counterfeit $50 bills. I studied all the
reports that were made in the American
J,atc Magazine of the Whittaker.casc.
1 have also studied so as to he able now
to give a resume of the contents of the
quarto work oT Cheselton and Shabeftw
on the handwriting of Junius. I
have also scientific, appliances for discovery
of counterfeit handwriting, to
wit: A microscope with prolongation
tube to cam* the objective hevond the
stage, made by llio microscope manufacturer
under the direction of the president
of the Microscopic Association of
America. I have, sincu I paid attention
to the subject, in Courts of tliia State,
detected four forgeries to the satisfaction
of the Judges in three cases, and to
the satisfaction of the jury in the
fourth case, all of which determined the
issues in those cases. I think, therefore,
I am an expert, of which fact in this case
] am very sorry."
The letters before mentioned were
handed to the witness.
"During the trial of this case I examined
the letter admitted to be in the
handwriting of Mrs. McDaniel, and
made a note of the idiosincracies of tho
handwriting and gave it to a gentleman
who is neither lawyer, witness, juror nor
client in this case. All of those idiosincracies
are unfortunately in the letter in
disilllte. anrl nil Innlrinir nvor tlin lollnr I
v r ? ~ *
nm sorry to say that I am unruly not able
to say that 1 have a perfect certainty
that it was written by Mrs. McDaniel.
The reason I cannot have a perfect certainty
is that I have not subjected the
letters to my microscope. In examining
suspected writing it is the duty of
the expert to consider all the surroundings,
the physique, health and all other
circumstances connected with the person.
From seeing Mrs. McDaniel on
the stand, having heard factn testified to
while I was present, and from the internal
evidences of the disputed letter, I
would say that the letter wns written by
Mrs. McDaniel. I will also add, and
from Dr. Talley's testimony I would
here state that, although a lawyur, 1
have devoted a great deal of time to the
knowledge which would constitute a
doctor. I have a fine medical library ;
few country doctors have better or more
costly books. I have read them at night
for amusement. In addition to that I
have a great familiarity with medicines,
and can make and have made most of
t!io compounds that are sold by druggists.
Since I rati away from the Court
house (Col. Rion endeavored to avoid
testifying in the case) I have looked
over my books on gynecology and nervous
diseases. I find that Mrs. McDaniel's
case is that of n person suffering
from nymphomania, and at the time
of writing thin letter was in a slate of
exaltation, (physicians, will explain what
1 mean,) and hence was in no degree
more culpable than a lady would be
having stolen something while Buffering
under kleptomania."
After a thorough analysis of what he
supposed to bo Mrs. McDaniel's disease.
Col. Ition went on to say :
"Henco I would say, and of course
subjoct to the corrections of physicans.
that the writing of this letter is entirely
consistent with a <lc facto chastity of
Mrs. McDaniel, making her nn object
rather to bo guarded than hated by her
Ii us bund. Among the oilier numerous
effects of nymphomania is the expression
of religious feeling. To come to
the letter, what is called a state of exaltation
in nymphomania is clearly indicated.
The repetition of endearing words,
the duplicated und triplicated underscoring,
tho frequent use of the word
God, the out of the wny use of the word
Saviour, tho numerous exclamations nil
indicate what is termed a state of exaltation
with a tendency to religious emotion.
No person not suffering under
some kind of emotional insanity, as
nymphomania, possessing Mrs. Mcl)uniel's
evident refinement and lady-like
qualities hs have been evidoncMl hv t.?r
npjH'.irunco and demeanor on the stiwul
and ihe facts which have been testified
iu in this cane of social standing and
friendly recognition by ladies of the
highest respectability, could have written
such a combination of wanton desire
and religions appeal as this letter
contains. 1 think that this is an explanation
of Mrs. McDaniel's difficulty, relieving
her morality from criminality."
At this stage of Col. Kion's testimony
counsel for the defendant suggested n
private interview between his Honor,
the opposing counsel and the witness,
Col. Rion. This was consented to by
the counsel for plaintiffs, and the interview
was had in tho J udgo's chamber.
4 #
BMaar?gCT r ?eCTPW.jLMV--.jUM
The interview lasted for about fifteen
minutes, when the Court took a recess
until 3 o'clock. The respective counsel
arc all very reticent as to the nnturo or
o'nject of the interview. It is supposed
tli.it I he hope of some sort of compromise
prompted counsel to suggest the
conference. At all events the trial of
the case went on and Col. Hi on was r<;cnlled.
Witness then read aloud the letter
supposed to have been written by Mrs.
MoDaniel and pointed out the different
expressions 'contained therein, which
induced him to believe that it had been
written by Mrs. MeDaniel while suffering
from nymphomania. He next compared
the disputed letters with others
tliat were acknowledged to bo genuine,
and explained to the jury the different
points of similarity between them.
Witness holding up tlio disputed loiter,
then said : "If this is a forgery it certainly
may be characterized as miraculous."
lie then examined the letter
through his double magnifying glass
and said : "I am more convinced than
ever that she wrote this letter."
Upon the cross-examination tlio witness
was asked when he first saw this
disputed letter, lie replied: "Tjast
Saturday, and that is the time I ran
from the Court house to avoid testifying
in tho case."
In answer to ft question he said :
"The letter purporting to come from an
injured wife and the letter enclosed in
it arc not in the same handwriting. The
litter from the injured wife lias l-cen altered
in order to make it correspond
with the letter enclosed, but the alteration';

person. The fool who did it used a steel
pen and lighter colored ink. [Sensation.
Dr. L. K. l'hillipot was recalled. The
Tho disputed letter was handed to the
witness, lie said ;
"I have seen this letter before. It
was in the possession of one Ocorge
Nehand, an insurance agent. I was
appointed medical examiner for the
company he represented. On one occasion
Nehand and I walked down Main
streut together. When we reached Mr.
McDanicl's he stopped, bid me ^ood
evening and went in.
G. T. Benrg testified :
"I know one Will. H. Clark. He had
a bed-room on the same floor of the
building in which I had an office. I
know Mrs. McDaniel. She never was
in my office. I don't know whether she
was ever in Mr. Clark's or not. He and
I were the only persons having rooms
on that floor.''
Wm. II. Liles was the last witness
put up by the defence. The witness
simply stated that the Church had never
preferred any charges against Mrs.
McDaniel. lie was not allowed to state
tho reasons for doing so.
The defence here closed. It is understood
that to-morrow the plaintiffs will
introduce-evidence in rebuttal.
The trial will run a couple of days
longer.
A CITY IN THE AIR.
I
Tho AVonilerful Pueblo of Ancient
Aconan.
(better to (lie Lawrence, Kan., Journal.)
Santa Fe, New Mexico, October 21.
?The pueblo of A coma, situated 90
miles west of Albuquerque, is one of the
most remarkable communities in New
Mexico or the United States. To reach
it take the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad
to McCarthy station, and then transfer
to an Indian pony and ride 18 miles
South by ICast. When near your journey's
end you descend almost imperceptibly
into the valley six miles in
width, in the middle of which stands a
but to, and on the top of this is Acoma.
Eight hundred people are living there,
and they and their ancestors have gathered
there the sum of their possessions
for nearly three centuries. This butte
is one of many that are tho remnants of
a mesa that has been worn away by the
erosion of tho ages, and survives only in
flat-topped mountains here and there.
The vallevs between nrr> forliln nnrl ?'? ?
told generations of men have soon them
covered with waiving grain and flocks of
sheep.
Some time in the seventeenth century
the Lngttno or valley Indians made war
upon the Acornas for the possession of
the country, and the latter being the
weaker occupied this butte as a defensive.
position believed to be impregnable.
Their judgment has been abundantly
vindicated. It has proved a Gibraltar of
strength and safety. Tho comparison is
not inappropriate, and in approaching it
from the North I was struck with the
resemblance to tho pictures I haye seen
of that grim fortress that frowns over
the straits to the Mediterranean. The
height above tho valley is nearly 4<)0
ii_ > -i
IV.-VI mm iiil- vtuiiB III M'VLTRI piilCPS nOftr1y
perpendicular. There are two mcanH
of ascent, ono by a flight of steps cut
into the face of the wall and rising at an
angle of 45 degrees, and the othor by a
fissure in the rocks leading up into the
heart of the mountain. Moth ways have
been troddeji by human feet until tho
steps arc hollowed out lik? shallow
troughs. Kifher one is exceedingly difficult
and neither is tolerably safe. Wo
clioso the one along the fissure. To give
an idea of the lahoriousncss of the task>
imagine a stairway starting at Mr. CJrosvenor's
office and rising to the top of the
spire of the Methodist Church, then continuing
on an easier angle for one hundred
feet ?r>u4 then rifting again by a
sleeper grade than ever to an elevation
higher than tho weather vane on the
university, ami this stairway a precarious
footing along the sides of a gash in a
rugged mountain, and you ina}* fcnow
how we reached Acoma! With all tho
danger and futiguo, it is h laughable
sitht to see a person?some other person
?make the ascent. One has to stride
over the fissure, one foot on the righthand
side and the other on the left, and
at the same time press the hands alternately
against the rocks for support.
An Indian will throw alive sheep around
his nock and go up quite rapidly with- I
ont touching either hand to the rocks ;
hut I tun satisfied I could never do it.
They told us of a pathetic incident that
occurred on the onter stairway several
generations ago. Several men started
up, each with a sheep on his back.
When nearly to the top the sheep carried
by the foremost man became restless,
ami the shepherd in trying to hold
it fast lost his footing, and in falling
swept his companions over the precipice,
and they all fell on the rocks at the foot
in a lifeless heap. The Indians have
carved a representation of the accident
on a rock near where it occurred, which
scarcely serves to steady the nerves of
those who go by that route.
The top of the elevation is level, and
contains an area of sixty or seventy
acres. At one side stands the pueblo, a
blunt pyramid of adobe and stone, lionejcombed
with rooms, at the other the
Church and graveyard, and near the
centre a pond of pure water thirty feet
in depth and several rods in extent. The
priest was made acquaintod with the object
of our visit, and the ringing of the
Church bell brought the inhabitants of
the village around us. When they understood
that the titie to their lands was
in question and we had come to talcu tes
limony they showed great interest, ami
discussed the various points involved
with remarkable intelligence, considering
their limited opportunity lor a
knowledge of law. As nightfall came
on a number of the men who had been
at work in the valley came up, bringing
delicious peaches and crapes, which we
were glad to accept in view of the
meagre preparations for supper. We
slept in the Church, wrapped up in our
Navajo blankets and never felt more secure
or happier in our live*. When the
gray dawn peered through tho little
mica window-panes it revealed great roof
beams more than a loot in dian.eter and

lower a boll that was cast in 1710. How
those itninen.se timbers and this boll
wore brought up to the top of this clift'
no one living knows. The Indians
shake their heads and the priest shakes
bin, but no one ventures an opinion.
The timbers are there, however, as witnesses,
and morning ami nigh!, as the
seasons come and go and generations
pass away, the bell speaks for itself in
the silvery tones lhat pleased its founder
in far-oir Spain when King (Jeorge was
on the throne. The adobes?or the
earth of which they wore made?were
brought up from the valley r.lso. for the
top of the butte was a bald roeU in the
beginning. And ihe earth for the graves
came the same way, requiring forty
years, the priest said, to complete the
graveyard. It is the only completed
graveyard I have over seen. The old
priest seemed very happy in the charge
of his tlnek ami his flock seemed happy
in possession of liitn.

How to Vrevent I''ir?H.
The following simple precautions,
suggested by the New York Jndepcud- j
cut, if strictly followed, would prevent
a great many destructive fires. The
rules might be posted in every store,
dwelling and factory with good results :
Always buy the best quality of oil.
Never make a sudden motion with a
lamp, either in lifting it up or setting it
down.
Never place a lamp on the edgo of a
table or mantel.
Never fill a lamp after dark, oven if
you should have to go without a light.
Hee that the lamp wicks are always
clcnu ancl tliat they work freely in the
tube.
Never blow out a lamp from the lop.
Never take a lamp to a closet where
there nre clothes. If necessary to go to
tho closet, place the light at a distance.
Use candles just as much as possible)
in going about tho house and in bedrooms.
They are cheaper, can't explode,
and for very many purposes fire just as
good as lamps.
Matches should always bo kept in
earthen jars or in tin.
They should lever bo left where rats
or mice can get hold of them. There is
nothing inoro to the ta^te of a rat than
phosphorous. They will eat it if they
can get at it. A bunch of matches is
almost ccrtain to be set on fire if a rat
gets at it.
Have good safes in every place where
matches are to be used, and never let a
match be left on the floor.
Never let a match go out of your hand
after lighting it until you are sure the
fire is out, and then it is better to put it
in a stove or an earthen dish.
It is far belter to use 11 *? matches,
wlr'ch can only bo lighted ?:pon the
box which contains theui.

Mr. Calhouu's ijovo ol" 'Posniim.
"Somehow or other all these great men
had their peculiarities about what thev
; wante?I to cat. There was Mr. Calhoun,
who always had his possum ancl swevt
potatoes when he could get them, lie
used to say to me : 'Now, Steve, you
get me a nice fat 'possum, cook it the
day after it is killed, parboil it, then put
it in a hot oven with boiled yam potatoes
laid around it in the oven and then
let it slowly brown. If you can get a
coon, Steve, you make plenty, of coon
gravy, very brown, and pour it over the
'possum, and don't you fail to have the
possum well flavored with pepper, salt
ami sage.' Well, sir, you just ought to
see Mr. Calhoun sit down to a dish of
'possum with coon grav}'. He wasn't a
big man, but he was mighty thin, and
there was plcntj' of room about his vest,
he would make that 'possum very sick

to say that it reminded him of old
South Carolina to oat 'possum, ami that's
the roason he liked it so wtdl. Many a
time he's told i?e about going out 'possum
hunting at night with colored hoys
and dogs and an axe, treeing the 'possum,
cutting the tree down and roasting the
'possum before a log (ire."
Purge out the lurking distemper that
undermines health, and the constitutional
vigor will return. Those who suffer

of the system, should take Aycr's Sarsaparilla
