a Young Wisconsin Girl in q
Trance for -Four weeks.

A Milwaukee paper says: 4 mum
Der Of our city physicians went out tt
Burlington yesterday to Investigate The
case Of a child which, for twenty day,
has been in trance. The case is pro
nounced one Of the most remarkabl e
that ever came under the notice Of the
medical faculty, and there is little
wonder that it creates sensation In
the report OF the affair published yes
terday, we had not sufficient details to
explain the case thoroughly, bat are
enabled to do SO to-day from the lips
of persons who have seen the child.
A little daughter, II years Of age,
named Nina, of Christina Rausch, a
German farmer, living about one and
a half miles from Burlington. Racine
county, in this state, had q severe at
tack Of measles and diptheria. She
had nearly recovered from these CO
the Sth day OF January, when she
called her father to her bedside and
told him that she was goirS to sleep,
and that she would sleep for long
long tine. She said she should look
az though she waa dead, but she should
not be dead, and she made the father
promise that he would not bury her.
Which promise it may be readily sup
posed has been faithfully keIt. Soon
after making the request, the chill to
all appearances sank quietly and peace
fully into her last sleep BY allit was
supposed that Nina Was dead, AMI the
body was enshroudcd aud placed in a
coffin, After the sleep the body show.
cd no signs of death, although the
pulse and heart ceased to perform
their functions, and no device could
show ths-t the respiratory organs were
in use The eyes closed.
la tbs state Nina has lain now for
20 days, without sign of death, other
than a sinking OF the cheeks and eyes,
which would be natural with one who
had tasted for so long period.
Three days ago vein was tapped,
AMI blood flowed IS naturally as it
would in living person. y blister
r raised on the flesh precisely as it would
on that Of one alive. y neishbor of
Mr.. Rausch told our reporter that he
pressed finger on the hand of the
girl Her flesh was solid, and upon
taking away the finger, the spot was
white In few seconds the color
came again, precisely as it would if the
flesh of living person were pressed
in the same manner.
Under these circumstances it is
reasonable for parents and friends to
believe that the child lies in trance,
and there is little wonder that the case
is attracting so much attention anon o
the medical faculty. 1t will be watch
ed carefully to the end, and with inter.

visited the house of Mr.. Rausch, and

strange affair.
