were laying plans to escape, but they were unable to get any definite information until yesterday. The hinges of a cell door were found to be nearly sawed in two. This was the cell in which H. L. Stanton, S. D. Merrill, alias Dale, and L. H. Rosenbach, an alleged forger, horsethief and suspicious character respectively, had been confined last night. It is now supposed these three prisoners had planned to get out of the cell in which they were confined, knock down and gag the doorman, take the keys from him, and escape by way of the main entrance.

[ocr errors]

Mr. Dr. Scott Evans, goes to Europe about the 1st of May next with the view of prosecuting his art studies for a year or two at Paris.

Mr. Evans has met with marked success since he has been in Cleveland, and with the advantages for study which he will find in the French capital, we predict for him a high and successful career.

6159 L Dec. 28:5/3 A LEADER reporter visited a curious character
yesterday morning, a "wild man" who makes his home in a hollow log and
lives in a most eccentric manner. The man, who gave his name as
John Lake, was captured by a constable some time ago and has spent his
time sitting quietly in his cell and, until yesterday refused food for
24 hours. He speaks in a whisper only, he can read and write, and he
answered a number of questions asked of him by the reporter.
He was
taken to the police court Tuesday, and Judge Young sentenced him to a
fine of $50 and 30 days in the workhouse. There can be no doubt that
Lake is a poor lunatic, allowed to roam at large, or else escaped from
his keepers. He should be sent to either an insane asylum, the infir-
mary, or returned to his friends if any such can be found.

6160 L Dec. 28:7/3 - Covered with Charges, Samuel Dale alias Merrill, was up in the police court, yesterday, on the charges of grand larceny and horse stealing. To both of these he waived examinations and was there upon bound over to the Common Pleas Court. These make not less. than five charges which have been made against the defendant since he was arrested here, on four of which he has been held for appearance before the grand jury.

6162 L Dec. 30:14/3 In a letter to the editor "E. L. H." says: During the last few days a number of communications have appeared in the LEADER relating to the meteoric phenomena that occurred on the evening of Dec. 21, and as there still seems to be a difference of opinion, my observation concerning it may throw some light on the subject.

At the time I was making observations on one of the constellations. A few minutes past nine I heard a very audible report, which seemed to

have come from the northwest. My attention was attracted by it, and
immediately 17 luminous bodies appeared. They passed directly overhead,
and were traveling almost due east. As they passed they exhibited all
of the colors between violet and red, with the latter predominating;
these bodies appeared to be about the size of large apples.

There have been many theories advanced to account for this wonderful phenomena, but the most satisfactory one is that advanced by Professor Olmsted, of Yale: That we are passing through a nebulous body, which was then pursuing its course along with the earth around the sun; that this body continues to revolve around the sun in an elliptical orbit, but little inclined to the plane of the elliptic, and having its aphelion near the orbit of the earth, and also has a period of six months. As a proof of this, we find that almost all the noted phenomena of this character, which are recorded have occurred in two opposite m nths of the year. November and April have been especially favored. The noise and report that was mentioned, I attributed to either the explosions themselves or fragments falling into the lake, it certainly did resemble very much the noise, as records tell us, which have been produced by similar phenomena. "I hope this observation may cast some light upon a subject that has been shrouded in an uncertainty for ages, or better, perhaps, call forth a treatise from someone more capable to impart it than a beginner."

6163 L Dec. 30:16/2 The snow storm of yesterday fixed the question of sleighing for New Year's, at least. A singular fatality seems to follow each Friday of this month. The first two were fearful, the cold being intense and the wind very violent. The third one sputtered away towards evening, and managed to get up quite a gale before morning, while the fourth is so recent in the memory of man that it requires no description. It is hoped a new order of things will come in with the new year, and that the storm will not come with such persistent regularity.
