combining some weil-lknown valuable femD-
dies the most wonderful medicine was pro-
duced, which would cure such wide range OF

all doubt, and to-day the discoveries Of thas

Within the last six months the rail-

over 5000 miles of road, mainly in the
South and Southwest. AS this extern

interests of this section, it furnished good
evidence of the material progress of
those regions, and in a measure ac-
counts for the fact that there has been

A Dream.

A strange story comes to us from
Wheeling, West Virginia. The young
wife of a we'll. known farmer, Mrs. Jacob
Campbell, had suddenly disappeared.
Her brother-in.la who lives some miles
away, ut once came forward and said he
had dreamed three nights in succession
that he h ad seen ner body in a certain
pool formed by a bend in the river.
The place was examined and the body
found.
The dream, it should be remembered,
came before Mrs. Campbell's disappear.
ance. They were not dreamed subse.
quently to the event. Thus they pertain
to the realm net of clairvoyance but OF
second-sight. Such, ut least, is the
story. But is there any one who can
testify that the brother-in-law told of
the dream before Mrs. Campbell's dis
appearance2 If so, well. If not, it will
be As hard as it always has been before
to persuade the world that the fact
did not suggest the dream rather than
that the dream fo~reshadowed the fact.
In either case, however, the curious,
and at first sight inexplicable, circum-
stances remains that the dreamer correct
ly described the spot where the dead wo-
mans body was found, and the SUPPOSE
ton thatthe know of this by means other
than his dream, Or was in any sinister
way associated with Mrs. Campbells dis
appearance, seems to be upset by the OBJ
vious probability that in such case he
would have made no revelation at all.

1t has been discovered that the flea can
leap two hundred times it's length. Our
admiration at this is changed to astonish-

horse with q degree of strength similarly
proportioned to his weight he would have
been able to clear theRocky Mountains
n ound an that a like effort a whale
would be- able to leap to a height of two
hundred leagues. What else can bemore
unassailable than these conclusions? 1t
is true that, If instead of comparing the
weights of the horse and flea, We had
compared their heights, We
should have found that the
horses leap would not measure more then
three hundred metres. Why is prefer.
ence given to the weight2 Because it is
it's whole body with it's three dimensions
and it's density that the flea hurlt to two
hundred times its height, and it is the
same feat of strength that we demand in
vain of the horse. Calculations have also

The Amazon ants, going to battle,

to be even with them, if we Judge by the
relative heights, should have travelled

ever, in this case, TO compare the forces
with which given mas es move themselves,

THE CRUMBLING CHURCH..
An Attempt to Prove that Broadway
Methodist Church is Still Ssfe.

In conversation with Rev. J.. u. Arm
strong, the pastor of the Broadway
Methodist Church, THE BEE learned
that he and his people were quite stirred
up about the recent order of the board of
health condemning the building as un.
safe, and that no more meetings
should be held there. He deems it an
in justice, and proposes to have a num-
Der of architects from here and elsewhere
examine the building. At present the
congregation will worship in Dohaney's
new opera house, although at the time
an attempt was being made to raise money
for completing that building. Mr.. Arm
strong spoke quite bitterly against the
enterprise. Services were held there
yesterday. Mr.. Armstrong says that the
change of the meeting place is due not
to the fact of his considering The
church unsafe, but because it would be
almost imposs- BILE to get people to go to
the church, safe or unsafe, after it had
been condemned. He thinks that prob
ably the services will be held in some
other place temporarily until a new
church is built. For some time there. was
talk of building a new church and this
will doubtless hasten the enterprise some
what.
In this connection is given the follow
ing card:
10 THE TRUSTEES OF THE BROAD.
Way M. e. CHRUCH-Genlemaen: l
have carefully examined the northeast
corner of your church building and find
no cause for alarm as to it's safety.
Soon after the church vas built, this
corner settled considerably, causing ugly
cracks in the walls about eight feet from
the corner.
In 1873, Mr.. N. w. Williams repaired
the plastering, 30 that We have an oppor-
tunity of knowing just how much the
corner has settled since that time.
l carefully measured the crack in the
north wall near the ceiling, and found it
to be o~ne-seventh of an inch. The crack
in the east wall is about one-sixteenth of
an inch.
Now. as these cracks are about thirty
feet above the foundation and only eight
feet from the corner, the settlement
which has taken place cannot be more
than the twenty-ffth part of an inch in
the last six years. AS the rain which
falls upon one.quarter of the roof has
been allowed to soak in the ground at
this corner, we might have expected it to
settle much more. Respectfully sub
mitted, WILLIAM WARD, Architect.
