WAS 1T A DREAM?
A Singular Vision Which Appeared to
DIR. Bruce in Florida.

Dr. Bruce in Florida.
DR.. Walter Bruce, of this place, says
Micanopy, Fla, special of the sth inst,
recently had very singular revelation
made to him in way that is hard to ex-
plain. He is a native OF Virginia, where
he married Miss stribling, of Fauquier
county. some years ago, and soon after
wards removed to this State as one of the
pioneers in orange planting. and has ever
since been actively engaged in that busi-
ness. He is well known about here as a
man of sound judgment, high standing
and Of the most practical ideas, and is far
from being believer in any of the poDu-
lar ''lsms' Of the day, especially spiritu-
alism.
wLate on the night of Friday, Dec. %. he
b as awakened from sound sleep at his
tOuse in this place by so strong feeling
that there was some mysterious presence
in his room that he got up and lighted a
lamp and looked all over the house, but,
finding nothing unusual, he returned to
bed and apparently fell into light sleep
in which there appeared to him vision
of his wife's brother, r. NJ. Stribling. in
deadly conflict, in which he had his
throat cut in most horrible manner, and
was removed to a store near by, where he
was placed on a counter, and after the
apparent lapse Of time he died from the
effects of the wound.
The vision was so real that DIR. Bruce
could sleep no more, and when morning
| dawned he went out, but could net rid
himself of the yerv strong impression it
had made upon him. He related the
dream, as he called it, to several of his
friends, and later in the day visited a
well-kDown spiritualist in Gainesville.
who told him that some awful calamity
must have befallen young Stribling.
And, sure enough, the next mail from
Virginia brought DR.. Bruce a letter, an
nouncing the death of his brother-in-law
in the exact manner he had seen and at
the very hour that it had appeared to him
in his vision. A sister of the murdered
man, visiting relatives in Kentucky at
the time of his death, had a similar
| dream. and, while relating it at the
breakfast table, was handed dispatch,
announcing its fulfillment.

WENDELL PHILLIPS,
His Own Idea of His Power Over His
Hearers,

Hearers.
A Jersey City gentleman relates the
following incident of meeting with
Wendell Phillips:
Mr.. Phillips delivered his lecture on
''Lost Arts" in the Bergen Baptist Church
several years ago. l attended and en-
joyed it greatly. In the car, on the return
to Jersey City, were several young ladies
-schol teachers-who kept up running
fire of criticism, picking out every possi-
BILE fault and enlarging upon 1t. In the
corner sat tall gentleman, broad
brlmmed felt hat covering his face with
the exception of the mouth, the corners Of
winch seemed frozen into smile of cyni-
cal amusement.
Arrived at the car station this gentle
man asked me to show him the way to
the ferry, and recognized him. | direct
ed him to the ferry house and said:
'Mr. Phillips, were you not amused at
the remarks Of your fair critics?"
"Oh! that is nothing" he replied. 81
am used to it. I remember that after
making an abolition speech in Boston one
evening, l took a car for home. Next to
me sat man who asked me it / had been
to hear Phillips. l told him | had. He
then asked me what l thought of the
speech. l answered that / was pretty
well satisfied with it. Slapping me on
the knee he said excitedly; THAT
fellow can make you believe black
is white,' This set me thinking. |
knew l was capable of exerting a great
influence over my audiences. In those
davs | often stirred them up to such a
pitch of excitement that it would only
have been necessary for me to suggest
that they should go out and burn a barn,
mob a prO-slavery meeting or do some
illegal act and they would have done it.
But reflected that this was not, after all,
very desirable kind of influence. 1t
would not be of any permanent value. for
the next day they would repent them of
their folly and be anxious to mob me for
leading them into it. From that time |
sought to reach the reason rather than
the IpassiOn of an audience, and know
that the results were better and nv infu-
ence was greater and more lasting.
Mr.. Box, the Brooklyn autograph col
lectOr, has in his possession a letter
written by Wendell Phillips to the Rev.
Edward Everett Hale, reading as follows:
"DEAR HALE-This is abominable this clos
ing the adult school to save paint and pennies
only to waste the saving in ornamental non
sense. You must stop it. Now I'll do nv
| share, but do you go to Phillips Brooks and
Judge Abbott. I'll tackle some Others and
Wen descend on this penny wise matter. BE
strong enough to compel submission: no half
way, but a regular avalanche. Yours,
"WENDELL PHILLIPS"

der to show the populace that the Mos
lens are not inimical to GOrdOn's mis-
sion. Gordon expects to reach Khartoum

Among the numerous bills which have
been introduced in the present Congress,
says the New York Times, to remove the
political disabilities of various persons,
imposed by the fourteenth amendment to
the Constitution and the revised statutes,
is one which the Judiciary Committee of
the House of Representatives has recon-
mended should pass. 1t applies to Henry
Newman, now a private in Battery B ,
Second United States Artillery. Newman
has been a soldier in the army al
most continuously since 1866. For faithful
service and ability he was, from time to
time, promoted, until he became First
Sergeant of his battery in November, 1881.
He filed that position until July 3, 1888,
when it was discovered that during TIE
war he had been a private in the Con-
federate army. The War Department held
that for this reason he was illegally pro-
NOTED, and he was reduced TO the ranks.
A petition urging Congress to remove
Newman's disabilities was signed by Col.
r. b. Ayres, Lieut.. Col. LangdOn, Capts.
Graves, Wilson and McGilman, and
Lieuts. Creigan, Mitchell and Grimes, Of
the Second Artillery, each declaring that
Newman was a good and faithful soldier.
In its report the judiciary Committee
says that Newman would be promoted but
for his political disabilities.

PREMATURELY BURIED.
The Sad Fate of Young Girl Who was
Supposed to be Dead,

GuppOSeu 10 De DeaO.
A sensation has been created at DAYTON
by the discovery of the fact that Miss Hook
walt, young lady of high socia! connec-
tions, who was supposed to have died
suddenly on January 10, says a Dayton,
Ohio, special of the 9Th inst, was buried
alive. The terrible truth was discovered
few days ago, and since then it has been
the talk of the city. The circumstance of
Miss Hockwalt's death was peculiar. 1t
occurred on the morning of the marriage
of her brother to Miss Emma Schwind, at
EmanuePs Church. Shortly before 6
O'Clock the young lady was dressing for
the nuptials and had gone into the kitchen.
A few moments afterward she was found
sitting on chair with her head leaning
against wall, and apparently lifeless.
Medical aid was summoned in-Dr. jew
EFT, who, after examination, pronounced
her dead. Mass was being read at the
time in EmanuePs Church, and it was
proposed to postpone the wedding, but
Father Hahne thought best to continue.
and the marriage was performed in gloom
The examination showed that Anna
was of eXcitable temperament, nervous
and affected with sympathetic palpita-
tiOn of the heart. DIR. Jewett thought
this was the cause of her supposed death.
On the following day the lady was in
TERED in the Woodland. The friends of
Miss Hockwalt were unable to forget the
terrible impression, and several ladies
observed that her eyes bore remarkably
natural color, and could not dispeI an
idea that she was not dead. They con-
veyed their opinion Eto Annie's parents,
and the thought preyed upon them so
that the body was taken from the grave.
1t is stated that when the coffin was
opened it was discovered that the sup
posed inanimate body had turned upon
its right side. The hair had been torn
out in handfuls and the flesh had been
bitten from the fingers. The body was
reInterred, and efforts were made to sup
press the facts, but there are those who
state that they saw the body and know
the facts to be as narrated.

SUBMARINE NAVIGATION.
A New Craft not Unlike Jules Verne's
Famous Ship.

,
Famous Ship.
Prof. Charles f. RitcheH, of Bridge
port, famous in Connecticut as the inyen-
tor Of numerous practical labor-saying
machines. and famous in Europe and
America as the inventor and builder of
the only flying machine ever devised that
succeeded in flying, says a New Haven
special to the New York Times, has per-
fected model of a submarine craft with
which he expects to overcome the Obsta-
cles that so long kept the civilized
mariner ignorant of the surroundings of
the North pole. He feels confident
that with this vessel he can
navigate the sea with far less
danger below the surface than above, and
make much greater speed. He considers
that his vessel will be indispensable to
the navy, and for all expeditions in the
Arctic or Antarctic oceans. The first ma
chine will be of an elongated egg shape,
will be built in compartments, and will
be at least 200 feet long. 1t will have
four huge glass eyes, through which the
lookout can see above, ahead, behind, and
below. The prOpelling power VIII be
screw at the stern, and the lowering
and lifting power a screw beneath the
keel on exactly the same principle as
that OF the tan wheel used on the air
ship, whereby the vessel is made to rise
or fall at the operators desire. The YES
sci is made to float, but the vertical screw
will draw it downward at whatever rate
of speed it is running.
The professors plan about reaching the
North pole is to come to the surface at
every opportunity in the ice openings, and,
after securing enough fresh air to fill the
compressed air compartments, descend
again and continue the voyage. Twenty
men could successfully operate the ma
chine contemplated. The principle of
buOyancy is the same as that of the air
ship, the equipOise being such that a
slight force will govern its upward or
downward movements. Should the vessel
strike the earth or ice it would bound
back in the same way and for the same
reason that a foot ball bounds on the
earth. 1t is proposed to use oil for fuel
and electricity for light. The vessel will
be Of copper.
Prof. Ritchel has built a working model
Of his submarine craft. This miniature is
now in operation in a large tank of water
at his laboratory in the Bridgeport Saw
ings Bank huilding. This model is worked
by means 81 a spring, but in every other
particular it is rigged as will be the larger
vessel. 1t will be readily seen how radi-
cal an improvement is Prof. RitchelPs
plan over the exploded theories of former
inventors of submarine vessels.
