A “JOHNNY IRVING” ECHO;
A Music Hall Performer lltulcts an; Eng-
lish Paper to the Tune of 8260.
LONDON, Jan. 14.—A music hall per-
former namcd Kate Harvey has secured
£52 damages ($260) and the promise of an
apology from :1 Blackburn newspaper
which hinted that she had connived at the
escape in South Africa of Frank Taylor,
alias Tarbcau, one of the leaders of the
notorious Johnny Irving gang, which be—
came active in New York some years ago,
and who was sentenced on June 17 last
year to three years’ imprisonment after
having been convicted of participation in
obtaining goods and property in this city
by fraud. Taylor was accused jointly with
a person known as the Hon. WillarQiaIus-
grove, thought to bc Doc Minchon, sen-
tenced to five years’ imprisonment at Au-
burn, N. Y., for assisting Bunko Stccrcr
Thomas O’Brien to escape in 1892.
O’Brien is awaiting trial in Paris for kill-
ing Kid Waddcll, a gold brick swindler.
Taylor and Musgrove engaged in exten-
sive swindling operations .in London in
1893 after having hired a house in Stan-
hopc Gardens, where they lived in style,
Musgrovc passing as a senator. When
matters became too hot for them, both of
the swindlcrs escaped, and Taylor, after
having been twice arrested and twice es-
caping from the South African police, was
brought back to London and sentenced.
Musgrovc is also said to be identical
with a certain William Carroll Woodward,
who early last year while in Ceylon swin-
dled a native ruby merchaant out of jew-
cls worth $100,000. ‘

An Otherwise Uneventful Day In the
Upper Branch of Congress—Dis-
trictcof Columbia Day In stho
Hobse of Representatives.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.—Thc vice presi-
dent today laid before the senate a letter
from the secretary of the treasury in reply
to a resolution of inquiry presented by Mr.
Pcffcr as to whether $100,000,000 in gold
had at any time been set apart from other
funds. The secretary states that this had
never been done, there being no provision
of law authorizing it.
Mr. Gall (Dem. , Fla.) submitted a
and asked that they be printed. Objection
was made by Mr. Platt (Rep., Conn.).
Mr. Faulkner (Dem., W. Va.) presented
a report giving the~1aws of each state of
the Union and England in regard to the
right of a father to will the custody of his
children to any one. This is an echo of
the Slack suit recently brought before the
courts of the District of Columbia.
‘ Mr. Hale (Rep, Mc.) stated that he
would introduce a bill doing away with
the statute of Charles I, now in effect in
the’District of Columbia. ‘
To Recognize Cuba.
Mr. Kyle (Pop, S. D.) introduced a
concurrent resolution empowering and di‘ ‘
renting the president of— the United States
toreceive such persons as may present
themselves, satisfactorily accredited to act
on behalf of the Cuban patriots, and, on
the production of evidence showing that
they have established a seat of government.
on the island of Cuba, and theta majority
of the native born residents are actively
supporting and doi’cuding it with arms, or
are in sympathy with the cause, extend
belligerent rights to the Cuban patriots.
The resolution was referred to the com-
mittee on foreign relations.
A bill to amend the act forfeiting rail-
road lands was reported back to Mr. Mc-
It was ex-
plained by Mr. Mitchell (Rep, On), who
had introduced it, as having no other ef-
fect than to require the fen-ting, improv-
ing and cultivating of suéh lands to be re.
garded as fulfilling the requirement of
“possession.” .
' In the House.
Today was under the rules set aside for
the consideration of business relating to
the District of Columbia.
Although the consideration of the house
rules has not been completed, it was de-
cided to give today to the District of Co-
lumbia committee. Before Chairman Bob—
cock claimed the day, Mr. Morse (Rep,
Mass.) presented the following resolution
for reference to the committee on foreign
affairs:
Whereas, The most mournful tragedy of the
nineteenth century has been and is now being
enacted wider the apparent sanction of the
sultan of Turkey, by which hundreds of thou-
sands of Armenians are being ruthlessly
slaughtered in cold blood, women are being
driven into a captivity worse than death and
inhabitants who have fled to the mountains
are dying of cold and starvation;
Whereas, The blood of these martyred dead
cry to heaven for justice; ..
Resolved, That the committee on foreign af-
fairs consider the expediency of reporting
forthwith some expression by this govern-
ment in denunciation of these atrocities, and,
if they find we as a nation are powerless to
act, that we invoke the co-operation of the al-
lied powers to wipe the Turkish government
off the face of the earth and secure the free-
dom and indep’endence of Armenia.
The resolution was referred, and the
house then entered upon the consideration
of District business.
Two unimportant bills ,werc passed,
after which Mr. Babcock yielded the floor,
and the house went into committee of the
whole for the consideration of the pension
appropriation bill.

GREAT SALT LAKE.
‘ He Has For Years. Lived the Life of a. Wild
Man and Rarely Sees a. Human‘ Being
Branded For Bobbing the Dead by Order
03: Governor Brighani' Young. ,,
In the~center of the Great Salt lake
in Utah is a large body of land known
as Church island. " This land consists of
mountains - and valleys, with trees and
vegetation, and has always been. used
as a herding ground for cattle belonging
to the Mormon church. Several years
ago the water on the east side of the is-
land was 'shallow and cattle could be
driven across easily, but new the water
is deep and everything must be convey.
ed to and from the land in boats. A dis—
tance of about five miles covered with
saltwater must be gone over by canoes
to get to or from the island. On this
famous spot, amid millions of pelicans,
sea gulls and other fowls, Wanders a
lonely old man, without clothing and
devOid of language or any of the in-
stincts of humanity. Hewas banished
years ago by the Mormon church on the
charge of robbing the dead.
Jean Baptiste was a Frenchman who
Dame to Salt Lake City a young man
nearly 40 years ago. He grew up among
the saints, and, after marrying, was
made sexton of the Small cemetery. His
duties were light and his remuneration
correspondingly small. He resided in a
little cabin on the mountain side over-
looking the city, and spent his time,
when not employed in the cemetery, in
ing with a few Jewish . secondhand
clothes dealers who had the hardihoed
to engage in business among the Mor-
mons. ' A regiment of United States
troops was then camped near the city,
and the gentiles engaged in business
were assured protection.
The little Frenchmanwas an avari-
cious man and was noticeable because
of his picking up every cast away arti-
cle and carrying it to his home. Old
dry goods boxes, barrels, tin cans and
other packing articles cast away by the
soldiers were especially well cared for
by Jean Baptiste, the sexton. He dress-
ed as a scavenger and resembled the
modern saloon loafer, who is always
searching the slums for barrels and box-
es of garbage and cast of garments.
The actions of the sexton created some
comment, and not a little curiosity was
aroused among people who had occasion
to visit his residence on the mountain
side, over the city. -
One day Jean appeared on the streets
dressed in an elegant suit of“ broadcloth.
A few days before a wealthy stranger
had died 'and was buried in the ceme-
tery. The suit in which the body was
dressed resembled that worn by the sex-
ton. An examination was ordered, and
the corpse was found to have been rob-
bed of its clothing. A committee wait-
ed upon the sexton and made a most
startling discovery. The graveclothes
of over 200 persons were found in the
baskets and boxes stowed away in his
ghoulish cabin. Excitement ran high in
Salt Lake City. The boxes of clothing
were emptied and the contents taken to
the city hall, where many a fond moth-
er identified the burial robes of her
child. Elegant silk dresses, at that time
a luxury even to the rich, were found in
the various bundles. The man was ur-
rested and cast into jail, pursued by a
- mob who sought his life.
Brigham Young, then governor and
general dictator in Utah, ordered the
man to be branded with a hot- iron and
banished to Church island. During the
quiet hour of midnight Jean Baptiste
was taken from the jail, and his whole
forehead was scared with the following
inscription: “Branded For Bobbing the
.Dead. ” Two mén escorted the quiver—
ing, naked form from the city of venge-
ance. A canoe was entered near the
city, and the doomed prisoner was taken
in chains to the island which in future
was to be his home. Without clothing
or food he was landed upon the shore,
the boat returned to the mainland, and
the ghoulremained a hopeless exile. He
could not leave the island, because in-
stant death would follow should he be
seen by any of the inhabitants of the
Mormon land of Zion. He was forced
to seek food and. shelter amid wild ani-
mals, the birds and reptiles.
The island was \soon known as the
land of banishment. People shunned its
shores they would a haunted house.
Many persons were lost upon the lake
While rowing in canoes against heavy
winds. The general supposition of all
was that those unfortunatcs drifted to
the island and were devoured by the
wild man.

the natives, including Indians, wam
nevi/comers of the fate of scores of
pleasure seekers who have been drifted
upon the shores of the fated island. The
crags, bluffs, dark caverns and lonely
canyons warn every boatman nearing
the shore to keep away from the hidden
dangers. '
In a dark cave about half a mile
from the shore lives the wild man. His
home is strewn with the wrecks of
boats, bones of victims and other can-
nibalistic indications. Away back in
the deep darkness of the cavern is his
sleeping place, made of clothing strip-
wrecked on the fatal shore. A collection
of leaves, grasSes and—branches from the
trees of the island forms the foundation
for the bed, in. which this human mon-
ster spends most of his time. Several
