THRICE PRONOUNCED DEAD.
ysiss Katie Patterns Terrible Expert
ence in N CataIepiic Trance.

A Boston dispatch states that Miss Katie
Patten, of that city, recently passed through
horrible experience which, in connection
with the excitement over Mind Reader
Bishops death, has aroused no little interest
in medical circles. Miss Patten, who is %
wears old, after suffering four days with the
most malignant type ofdiphtheria, died Mon
day, or, rather, was pronounced dead by the
physicians who attended her. She ceased to
breathe and the heart discontinued It's action.
Just as the physicians were leaving the room,
after Strengthening her limbs the patient began
to show signs of life, and in a short time was
able to converse with her relatives. Though
very weak, she was able to say in a low voice:
II am not dead" She was made comforta-
BILE, and no more alarming symptoms present
ing themselves, the physicians departed only
to be summoned few hours later, when the
same strange proceedings on the part OF the
patient were again gone through. This time,
however, the physicians were more convinced
than ever that the young woman was dead
and declared that heart failure was the i'm
mediate cause, and no hope could now be
entertained of the patient again rallying But
contrary to the expectations of the doctors
and without any assistance from them, for they
considered 1t was entirely useless to make the
attempt, Miss Patten again showed signs of
animation, anu came out oi her Uahce-lhe
sleep as before.
The final attack, however, was more pro-
longed than either of the previous ones, and
even the family of the girl were reluctantly
compelled to believe that she had really de-
parted. Her jaw dropped. Every sign that
usually marks the presence Of death was pres
ent and preparations for the laying out OF the
body were made The bandages were adjust
ed about the head and everything made in
readiness for the undertaken. The patient
had been in this state for at least an hour
when she again showed signs of life, and
shortly after the doctors pronounced her COM
parativey out of danger and in a hopeful con-
d;tion
