Virginia who does not desire his name
mentioned, about a week ago was
sitting one evening IN a little Spiritu-
alistic circle, composed Of himself and
another persona tipping medium
when what purported to be the spirit
of his dear old grandmother got coll
troll of the table and held 4 long and
interesting communication with him,
by tips and raps. Suddenly 1t occurred
to him to ask her what number would
be a lucky one to buy in the big Mer-
camille Library Lottery. She imme-
diately raped ont the number s0,0So.
He had that very ticket, among others,
in his pocket, and at one produced 1t.
The old lady. however. was positive
and signitied her still firm opinion in
the matter. He was no implicit be-
lever In the spirits, yet such a strange
coincidence could not fail to have some
impression upon his mind. He was
astonished still further by her inform
ing him that 1t would win $3.50. When
the great day of the drawing came he
anxiously watched all the telegraphed
numbers, but owing to inaccuracies
that number did not appear. He did
not give up all hope but waited till
Wednesday morning, when the full list
published In the Bulletin arrived. He
eagerly scanned it over, when strange
to say it was not there. He is waiting
now for the "otficial list" But he
also had a coupon Of ticket 1882,
which lie never had any confidence in
at all. He saw the new moon over his
left shoulder 1t the time he bought 1t,
therefore felt ire all along that it
would not win u cent. Sure enough 1t
didn't.
