The Feelings Of HOrrOr Experienced by q
seemingly Dead Girl.
The sensations Of 4 seemingly dead
person. while confined in the coffin. are
mentioned in the following case Of
trance: "A young lady, an attendant
on the Princess -. after having been
confined To her bed for \ great length
Of time with \ violent nervous disor-
der. was at last. to all appearance. de-
prived Of life. Her lips were quite
pale. her face resembled the counte-
nance of a dead person. and the body
grew cold. She was removed from
the room in which she died. was laid
in a coffin. and the day Of her funeral
fixed OF. The day arrived. and. ac-
cor,linG to the custom of the country,
funeral songs AMI hvmrs We're sung

We're about tn nail down the lid of the
coffin. 4 kind Of perspiration was OBJ
served to appear on the surface OF her
body. 1t grew greater every moment.
and ut last Il kind of ~convul>ive motion
was observed in the hands and fee: Of
the corpse. \ few minutes after. dur
ing which fresh signs of returning life
appeared. she at once opened her eyes
and uttered a most pitiable shrek.
Physicians were quickly procured. and
in the course of u few days she was
considerably restored and is probably
alive at this day.
The description which she gave Of
her situation is extremely remarkable.
and forms a curious and authentic adj
di,ion to psychology. She said it seemed
to her that she was really dead. vet she
was perfectly conscious of all that hap
pened around her in this dreadful state.
She distinctly heard her friends speak
ing and lamenting herdeath ut the side
of her coffin. She felt them pull On the
d~ead-clothes and lay her in them. This
feeling produced u mental anxiety
which is indescribable. She tried tC
cry. but her soul was without power.
and could o act in her body. She
had the contradictory feeling a if she
were in the body and vet not in il. ~
one and the same time. 1t was equally
impossible for her to stretch out her
arm. or to open her eyes. or to cry. al
though she continually endeavOred tc
do 50. The internal anguish Of her
mind was. however. at its utmost
height when the funeral hymns were
begun to be sang. and when the lid o.
the coffin was about TO be nailed down.

The water levels of the cre:ace"us

How Great Catches are Made on Lax

The Buffalo fishermen spend the ma
jority Of their time during the winter
months in their primitive huts on the
ice. and watch with peculiar interest
their ''tip-ups" scattered here and there
over the lake for several hundred feet.
The ''tip-up' is a continuance made Of
sticks. so arranged over Il hole in tho
ice that when a fish bites on \ line the
good news is made known ut once.
Some Of tine fishermen have thirty or
forty lines and their ''catch' some DAYS
amounts to \ heavy sled-lOad. which
yields them 4 good income from the
wholesale dealers.
All told. there are probably 1900
fishermen in this city.
