is enjoying a remarkable sensation.
Among the most respected resi-
dents of the place is Mics Laura
Shelnut, who has passei the merid-
ian Of youth, but yet remains an
active participant in society events.
About a week ago she had dream.
Before her imaginary gaze was
spread the panorama Of the sur
rounding country. A young man,
elegantly dressed and ornamented
with red neclltie, stepped up to.
her, and pointing out certain spot.
told her to dig and wealth would
be hers. Just then she awoke, and
the young man was gone, but the
memory of the dream SO troubled.
her that she slept no more that
night. Last Friday night the
dream was substantially repeated.
The third night she again had the
dream, which SO impressed her that
on the following morning she went
out, and, sure enough, at the des.
ignatei spot, about two feet under
the ground. she found a small tin
box filed with gold coin. Three
are witnesses both to the frc 20
and digging up Of the box Of gold.
The whole community is excited
oyer the finding of the treasure.

She had hardly ceased speaking
when there was a convulsive move

"Oh! dear! dear" she repeated,
again and again, between her sobs,
"what shall ! do?'
There was not dry eye in the
car, as tall, benevolent-looking
gentleman of the Father Taylor
stamp arose. took off his hat, and
without saying a word passed it
round. The coin showered into it
every one gave somethipg-and the
amount, materially increased ky the
gentleman himself, was poured into

There said the gentleman,
"don't cry. That will buy another
dog for your brother and some
playthings for him, too"

SHAKESPEARE and Whist.

Our poet is an inexhaustible source of
quotations for all sorts of subjects and
occasions, says Mr. Rolfe, in the Liter
airy World; and it is wonderful how pat
these excerpts often are, though used
in connections of which their author
would never have dreamed. A CORES
pondent in Columbus, Ohio, has sent
us capital illustration of this, in the
shane of an elegantly printed little SOU
venir of series of games played by the
Whist Club of that city. \ few of the
passages will serve as samples of the
whole, and the point of each will be
clear to every whist player: Whatever
else shall hap tonight, give it an un-
derstanding, but no tongue. Seal up
your lips, and give no words but mum (;
the business asketh silent secrecy. No
tongue all eyes be silent. Be assured
we come to use cur hands and not our
tongues | am fain to shuttle. Who
leads? The most patient man in loss,
the most coolest that ever turned up
ace. have been in continual practice !;
/ shall win at the odds. Have | not
here the best cards for the game, to
win this easy match? One out of suits
with Fortune, and that could give more
but that her hand lacks means. Our
sport shall be to take what they mis-
take. III mark the play Our fore
fathers had no other books but the
score and the tally.

The Wedding of He Haw Wilde.

London Truth remarks that Nellie
went to see Oscar Wildes wedding,
and was immensely amused, ON arriving
at the church (St Jamses, Sussex Gar
dens), to find that the bridegroom had
given orders thae none should be adj
mitted unless they had his card. Of
course, it was quite right that a certain
portion of the church should be set apart
at weddings for the friends of the bride
and bridegroom: but for man to issue
his commands as to who shall and who
shall not, be admitted to public place
of worship is a little too ridiculous.
Nellie got in, however, notwithstanding
her being unprovided with Mr.. OSCAR
Wilde's visiting card. She says the
brides dress was pretty. chiefly on ac-
count of its perfect simplicity, Her
veil was peculiar, being of gauze or
open meshed spun silk, or something
unusual. The bridesmaids harmonies
of terracotta and primrose were spoiled
by white hats and feathers. Nellie says
II was the funniest thing ID the world
to see the contracting parties and the
best man posing in studied attitudes
during the ceremony. Fancy man
being married with his head on one side,
like a 'tIred" lily, his hand on his hip
and his legs dispo,,ed according to pre-
concerted arrangement. The brides
maids carried lovely lilies. Lady Wide
asnatchedp her new daughter to her
heart with some effusion, and the bride
groom kissed the bride.

Celebrated Vampire Case.

The most celebr ated vampire case,
perhaps, and the latest, happened in
1919. In that year the cemeteries of
Paris were entered, graves broken open,
and corpses rudely tossed upon the
ground. The greatest alarm was felt as
the horrible depredations continued.
The strictest watch failed to detect their
author. Physicians who were called to
examine the wounds and mutilations in
ficted on the corpses declared the dep
redators could not be, as was first sup.
posed, resurrectionists. A man-trap
was set in Pere la Chaise, anda heavy
bomb concealed beneath it. One night
the sentinels posted about the cemetery
heard the boom explode. They entered,
but beyond few drops of blood and
fragments of military clothing, found
no trace of the vampire. Next day it
became known that Sergeant Bertrang,
a soldier, was dangerously wounded.
He was arrested. On his court martial,
of which Colonel Mansolon was Presi-
dent, Bertrang confessed to having
committed all the horrible violations of
graves, but could not explain why he
did it. He was controlled by greater
power, he said. Like de Retz, this man
was frank, gay and gentle. He VIZ
sentenced to twelve months imprison-
ment, and a counsel of physicians APP
pointed to examine his mind.

Mormons Still Coming.

Twenty-Five Mormon missionaries,
with sol converts 40l Scandinavians
and 100 English arrived at New York
by the steamship Arizona en- route to
Salt Lake City, under charge of Chief
Elder G. H. Nye. As the steamer
reached the dock, roll call was held,
and each elder was detailed to his
respective post. The young women
looked listless as the elders rushed in
among them, giving orders. Elder Nye
said:
The converts bring are not all recent
accessions, some having been members
of the church over thirty years, who
through lack of means or other causes
have been unable to come here. / am
now going back to Utah to remain there,
and within a shori time of our arrival a

A Nuns Funeral.
From Inc TroY Times.

From the Troy Times.
| stood at the door of the Kenwood
Convent and heard the sisters chant the
Requiem for the dead. Itwas dark and
solemn within, but outside the May sun
shine had made glorious the landscape,
and the robins and orioles were piping
their joyous melodies in the soft morn
ing air. BY and by the chanting ceased
and then along the gloomy corridors
came procession ofdark robbed women,
carrying with them their beloved dead.
In the hand of the living candles were
held, emblematic of the light to come,
and on the cover of the coarse pine box,
in which reposed the hfeless nun, a
simple covering was placed, and
modest flower was the only
ornamentation. Out in the sunshine
they gently carried their sister safely
at rest, forever and, laying her rever-
emily in the tomb breathed tender
prayers over the grave and returned,
fearless and content to their convent du-
ties. There was no mourning for the
lost and beloved one. She had Agone
home," had found her happiness, and
had left the others waiting, waiting,
waiting. Thus within the convent walls
death is a subject of eongratulation, so
complete and beautiful is the faith of
the living in the glory of hereafter.
Watch simple funeral such as this, ye
scoffers, and tell me then if there be no
resurrection and eternal life!

Cupid in the Court Room.

A late occurrence Ill German court
of Justice points out to women new
method of accomplishing her destiny.
Every lawyer knows the advantage to
his cause of bringing bis client into
court, if she is handsome. graceful, in
terestipg and, above all, ifshe has COM
mand of tears. Many verdict has been
gained rather by pair of beseeching
eyes or a dropping figure than by any
argument. High damages for breach
of promise, divorce from an irksome
husband, acquittal from probable char
ges, have all been gained by women in
the court room; but did any one ever
win a husband? This is what happened
to a German girl She was on trial for
child murder. She was acquitted from
this charge, but was condemned for
some trifing infraction of the law to
few weeks Imprisonment. During the
trial one of the jury, well-to do burgh
er, who had been unable to keep his
eyes off her. On her release he met her
at the prison door, requested and OBJ
