DETECTED 131: A MIND-READER.
An incident has curve to IigLt in
Bloomington, Indians, which seems to
prove that there is such a thing as
" mind -reeding." I can vouch fur the
trntb of the following, as it was reveal-
ed in our mid: t a few days since :--
Last April , the Harmon family, of
this county, who are reliable, and are
known as good citizens, had stolen
from their home $1,065 iu rather to
mysterious manner. Some weeks after
$100 were found one morning ou the
porch of their resideuce. Amateur
detectives have been employed, but
could get no trace as to the robbery.
D. U. Spencer, s prominent news,raper
correspondeut of the city, claimed tt>nt
he posse -sed a mystet'ioee power wihich
enabled him to read, the human natal.
The Harulons, hearing of his boasts,
determined to let high try his hated,
allowing Ilire a small compensation if
he succeeded iu discovering the guilty
parties.
Spencer visited the house several
times, anti, after no little difficulty, sat-
ie•fied himself as to the guilty one. By
obtaining the confidence of that person
—whose name is withheld at the re-
quest of his relatives—the process of
reading his mind was begun, resulting
in a viotory. After being fully sure of
the person's guilt, and knowing thathe
has l aha money, Spencer charged Lint
with it, and named the place where it
was. This so frightened the lnai that
he went to the exact place named mitt
produced nearly all the money stolen.
Mr. spencer has received word (rete
a prominent town in Central Indiana
that the was wanted ianmediattely to.
work up a bank robbery cumwitte4 n•

incident has, of course, created no little
oxeitemsnt throughout the coup icy,
and much experirieutirlg has been 5't•
