The New Yerk World says: OF
condolences it may be said, as of dreams
and premonitions, that, considering the
immense number of human beings upon
this earth and the multitudiuous points
at which their existance intersect one
another, the wonder is, not that there
are so many striking condolences but
that there are so few, The exchanges
of the World have, during the past few
months, recorded large number OF
condolences, some of which at least
were worth noticing on the ground Of
their singularity. One of the most
curious happened, only few days ago,
when letter was sent to the Sheriff of
Dunn County, Wis, authorizing the
attachment of the stock of Charles
Hudson, dry goods dealer at Waneka.
Who would have thought the letter
would 20 by mistake to Dane County,
that in Dane County there would be a
place called Waneke, and that among
its residents there would be found
Charles Hudson, dry goods merchant,
whose stock would of course be at.

Charles G. Park, OF Searsport, Me-,
captain Of the Sumner r. Wead, had
not seen his brother. Jeremiah 6. Park,
captain OF the Alert. for six years, nor
his brother Samuel Park. on board the
same vessel, for twelve years; but the
fates ordained that the two vessels

In the small town Of Zeith, in Prus-
sian Saxony, lived two women, Frau
Schmidt and Frau Feustel. occupying
adjoining rooms in the same house. In
February, 1881, each was made on the
same day the mother Of triplets, all
boys This was a decidedly curious
coincidence in births.
The Rev. Mr.. Busch, of Winona,
Mimi, whose five children were all
born on Sunday, has been the subject
Of some newspaper paragraphs, but his
case is less noteworthy than that OF a
resident of Middletown, Conn, three OF
whose four children have the same
birthday November l6.
A less remarkable coincidence is
noted in the case OF Mrs William Min
ming, of Mount Auburn, Ohio, who cell
ebrated ON one day the university OF
her birth, Of her wedding and OF the
birth Of a grandchild.
Why should accident have ordained
that the same company OF minstrels
should have visited Washington on the
day that President Garfield was in
augurated, ON the day that his remains
were borne in state to the Capitol, and
on the day that the Grafton was pro-
nounced upon him by Mr.. Blaine:
An odd coincidence was reported, not
long ago. In 1862 fire destroyed the
city of Kingston, Jamaica. On the day
OF the fire Aaron deCordova was born.
Aaron deCordova's granfather was the
first man on the island who erected a
building. After the fire, three months
ago, in the same place the present
Aaron deCordova was the first man
who erected building.
1t was a curious fate which ordained
that the son Of the Austrian Baron Carl
Won Hofer and Andreas Hofer's great
grandson should perish by bullet dis
charged during a rifle match, being the
fifth member of this distinguished fami-
ly slain by such wound.
Thre years ago, one Lewis Hiltz of
Independence, Mo-, killed Joseph Mel
ody, but was acquitted on the ground
OF insanity. Two years later, on the
same day and the same hour he received
fatal sunstroke on the same spot where
he committed the crime.
