PREMONIToRY DREAMS.
Among the more recent pramoni
tory dreams is one related by a Boston
Globe writer, in its issue of May 9th.
The story is told as follows: "One
of the most remarkable occurrences
l ever heard of was related to me
this morning." remarked State
street broker in Boston, the other
day. II have heard of a good many
wonderful dreams, but this has some
features about it which border on the
marvellous"
"What is the story?' queried anoth-
er broker, whose business was APP
parently dull enough to allow him
plenty of time to study the mirac
ulous, since he had almost forgotten
how to buy and sell.
"Well." replied the first speaker.
Il was told to day by a leading City
Hall official, whose trustworthincss is
undoubted, that a daughter of the
late Harvey Jewell (who was so well
and favorably known i'll Boston in
legal and business circles. and was a
brother of the late Marshall JewellD
had recently very queer and unusual
experience, and one calculated to
make a deep impression upon the
strongest mind Some weeks ago she
had dream in which she distinctly
saw an undertaken drive up to her
residence with a hearse. He was
peculiar-looking man. His queerly
shaped nose, which looked as if it had
been broken and was twisted to one
side, gave his countenance an express
sion which would have made identifi-
cation easy and certain. He came
directly toward her, and, us he said
Are you all ready?' she suddenly
awoke.
'The dream seemed peculiar one,
but did not attract very much atten-
ton in the household, until few
days or a week later it was repeated,
with exactly the same characteristics,
down to the Are you all ready?' and
the awakening.
Sand now comes the strangest part
of the story. Some little time after
ward the young lady was visiting in
Cincinnati, and went to an apart
ment hotel to call upon friend. She
stepped into the elevator with others,
and was startled to hear Are you all
readyp from the man in charge.
She was still more startled on looking
around and beholding the exact pic
ture of the man of the dream, even
to the misshapen nose. 1t made such
an impression upon her mind that
she requested to be let out of the
elevator at the first landing. She
stepped out, and the other occupants
went out at the next landing, and
the man remained. The elevator
machinery gave out; suddenly the
car went up and then down, and the
man was instantly killed.
You have all heard of the warn
ing of dreams All 1 can say is that
this is the first we'll authenticated
case / have ever known, and if it
does not border on the supernatural
l do not know what does It was a
good way to restore ones peace of
mind, but a most remarkable sequel"
REMARKABLE DREAM
Is told of by Trenton On. J.) cor
respondent: "Philip Hart, a notion
dealer in that city, has been missing
since last Thursday. He left for
New York on that morning and has
not returned. His wife tells a Singh
lar story. She says her husband was
in the habit of going to New York
every month to pay bills for goods
and to order new lots. He always
stopped at the house of his parents,
of Greenwich street, near the Cort
landt street ferry. When he left
home. Thursday morning at 7 clock,
he had in his possession $40. He
reached his parents home in New
York at $50, and remained there
until 2 o'clock in the afternoon. 1t
was his intention then to go and pay
his bill, and he asked his sister to ac-
company him. She was feeling I'M
well and did not go, and he then left.
This was the last seen of him. He
had sister living in Seventy seventh
street, whom he intended to visit, and
as lie did not come back to his
parents house ON Thursday night,
they concluded that he had stayed at
her house. Next day member of
the family visited the sister and
found that he had not been there.
The most singular thing about the
whole affair is the part two dreams
play in the matter Both the wife in
Trenton and the sister in Greenwich
street in New York dreamed on
Thursday night that they saw the
missing man on a bridge. with a
railing on one side of it, struggling
with another man, and saw him fall
of while the other man ran away.
Mrs. Hart described her dream in
vivid manner this morning. She said
she had no uneasiness about her
husbands going away when he left,
as he had been in the habit for the
past three or four years of going to
New York every month. But on
Thursday night, about midnight, she |
says she had the dream. She saw
him on the bridge plainly, saw his |
face, and saw the man he was strug-
Cling with. The dream distressed |
her SO that she woke up and slept |
