SOME CURIOUS DREAMS.
Condolences Between Real Events ant
UnaecounfahIa Visions.

CO1nc1oenceB between he0l Events ana
UnaecOuntable Visions.
Harlow Gale, 'S5, post graduate student
at Yale, is the local agent for the American
Society for Psychical Research, writes a
New Haven (Conn.) correspondent, and
has for more than year been making in
vestigation among the students of coinci-
dences between real events and dreams or
Authorizations. This society was formed in
1887, with headquarters in Boston. The
members believe that the coincidence of
dreams and incidents are caused by the
transference or interchange of mind be-
tween the person affected by the incident
and the dreamer, and they are endeavoring
TO theorize on the connecting link. The
psychologists hope to effect complete
demonstration by comparing the phe-
nomena connected with dreams with the
phenomenon of mesmerism, and it IS in that
line that the researches are now being
made.
Last year Mr.. Gale received about LOCO
answers. Thirteen per cent. of the persons
interviewed had had dreams of hallucina-
tions of remarkable vividness, and of these
six had conceded with actual occurrences.
Mr.. Gale says this is very good average.
Most of the cases were of painful incidents,
which goes to substantiate the idea that
trouble is the strongest bond between
kindred minds. Mr.. Gale gives as an Illus
tration the case of an academic student who
has brother in a Government position on an
island of the coast of China. The student
wildly dreamed that his brother
was attacked by the natives. Shortly
afterward he received cablegram that his
brother had taken part in suppressing a ma
tive instruction and was severely wounded
The details received later show that the
facts were just as the student had dreamed.
A theological student testified that he had
been greatly impressed by dream that
friend had fallen and shot himself while
out hunting, and the next morning he re-
Eceived dispatch that the person of whom
he dreamed had been killed in exactly
those circumstances.
Another case which is noted by Mr.. Gale
concerns a murder in the eastern part of
Connecticut. A husband and wife in
manufacturing town suddenly disappeared,
and nothing was known of their where
abouts After time the wife's mother ar
rived at the village. She had not known of
her daughters disappearance, but had
dreamed that the young woman had been
drowned by her husband and buried in a
secluded part of the woods. She prevailed
on the village officers to accompany her to
the spot, and there the buried body was
found. The time of the dream conceded
with the time of disappearance, and,
though the husband could not be convicted
on such evidence, public sentiment found
him guilty. Other cases investigated by
Mr.. Gale are given by prominent New
Haven people whose testimony will be un-
doubted, and they will be of value to the
society

crowd. 1 was strapped in Scranton once
with this same fellow. That was fifteen
years ago. We were walking around town
without q nickel to our names. when
stopped to look at fellow greasing the
Rxles of a wagon. He stepped on nv corn
and made me yell. When I told him what
allied me he said that axle grease was the
best thing in the world for corns. and he
told me to take some of it with me. That
set me to thinking, and told my pal that it
wouldn't be a bad fake to go into the corn
salve business. ] borrowed dollar of the
barkeeper in the Lacy House, and bought q
box Of axle grease for twenty-five cents.
Then 1 went to drug store and
got about hundred little pill boxes
for the balance of the money. We filed
all Of the boxes out of the big box, and that
night we started business on packing case.
and sold sixty boxes at twenty five cents
each, him singing and me lectulfng. Yes.
Iecturing is what we call it. I've worked
the axle-grease snap since, but I'll stake
all I've got in this land that the first time
it ever was worked was when we started it
that night IN Scranton. 1t has got to be
such chestnut now that a fellow has got
to put on lot of front to do it, because so
many folks are onto it. ! think it is the
only skin game ever was into, and it
amt such skin either, for If you get good
axle grease it will cure corns.
81 never worked the brown soap racket,
that pulls so many young fellows out of a
bad hole in strange city. You know what
that IS, don't yous No. Well, viii tell
you They take a bar of common brown
soap, cut it up into inch pieces, and wrap
each piece up in green glazed paper and
sell it for Persian grease extractor. My
business is legitimate or nothing, and If 8
man knows the ropes he can find lots of
things going cheap that will sell in the
country towns. thought hundred reams
Of cheap gilt-edged writing paper once and
sold every bit of it in Jersey towns. When
couldn't get cash would take chickens
and eggs. had wagon then, and one of
my kids with me. / know lots of fellows
who work crooked snaps, like selling dyed
rock salt to keep lamps from exploding, ink
extractor, nickel plating fluid, and such
snide fakes, but they are all poor. don't
know crooked fakir that works for any
thing but his bed, board and booze, while lots
of the square ones, like Davy, has got their
little houses and bits of land, with money
in the bank to make purchases with or to
keep them when they get tired of the
smell of gasoline"

TRADE m PEANUTS.
Branch OF Commerce Very Important Z
Southern Farmers

A Branch OF Commerce Very Important q
Southern Farmers.
When we pass peanut stand, or see q
bag OF peanuts in the grocery store, we do
not think OF peanuts as forming any i'm
portant share in our commerce We do no1
think that the peanut trade Is a branch of
trade very important to the people in a GER
tain section of our country; that if the crop
should fail it would mean suffering and
ruin to many people Peanuts grow in Vir-
ginia, Tennessee and Eastern North Caro-
lima, Alabama and Mississippi The best
grade comes from Virginia, and they are
known as "goubers;'' IN Alabama and
Mississippi as "pinders.n Dealers say
that no improvements have been made in the
peanut farms; they are just what they
were thirty years ago, although the peanut
trade has doubled in nine years. The farms
are small, and the crops are cared for by
negroes The nuts are planted in hills
about foot apart, in rows about two and
one-half feet apart, and are harvested by
blowing and turning over with long handled
forks; this shakes off the dirt, when the
vines are gathered and shocked about a
pole, where they are left to dry, the vinee
being so placed as to protect the nuts from
the rain; widowed nuts turn black, and are
less salable though the nuts may be as sweet.
"A uealer says, IN the New York Evening
Post, that "the shocks, after they have been
built up, are left standing for several
weeks, until the nuts are quite dried and
cured. They are then stripped from the
vines by hand, packed in bags, and carried
to the middleman who handles them for the
farmer By the middleman the nuts are
taken to the top floor of a factory, and are
secured and polished by rubbing against
each other in a long revolving iron cylinder.
Spouts carry them, after cleaning, to the
second floor. where they are run through q
fanning-min. From the mill they are de-
hvered on to an endless apron. made OF
Stats hinged together, and as they travel
along on this girls sitting on each side sort
them into grades. The nuts are then. put
into sacks and are ready for shipping.
They are brought to New York mostly by
steamers, although some come by rail
They are sold here as 'Wilmingtons,' sVlr.
gin1ans,' Tennessee and Spanish The
last variety was formerly grown in SPAIN
but Is now raised in Virginia to good ad
vantage. The grades are known as fancy
handpicked,' extra handpicked' and
choice The screenings are the poorest
nuts, and these are bought by vendors at
county fairs and mixed in with a better
grade"
Peanuts are shipped to all parts of this
country and to the West Indies, but ne
trade has been developed with Europe.
This limited trade, however, amounts to i've
million dollars per year.
