A Vision I'm White.

In one paper submitted to the Pyschical
Research Society, there Is an account OF
a remarkable series OF dreams which oc-
Cured TO Mr.. J. w. Shelton. n railroad
engineer, which were first published in
Chicago In 1856. Six times his locomotive
had been upset at high speed, and each
time he had dreamed OF It two nights
before. and each time he had seen
exactly the place and the side on
which the engine turned over. The
odd thing In his "reminiscences is
that on one occasion he dreamed that
after he had been thrown off the line
person in white came down from the sky
with a span OF white horses and black
chariot, who picked him of the engine
and drove him up to the sky in south
easterly direction. In telling the story
he says that every point was fulfilled ex-
cepting that-and he seems to regard IL
quite as n grievance-the chariot OF his
vision never arrived. On one occasion
only his dream was not fulfilled. and In
case he believed the accident was averted
solely through the extra precaution that
he used In consequence OF bis vision.

4 Cenxressman,s story.

There was a worthless sort OF fellow
in my neig ghborhood," said Congressman
Brookshire OF Indiana, who had a mania
for big words that he used on all occa-
sions. without the slightest idea OF their
meaning. He got into dispute with his
own sister over the ownership OF q feather
bed, and brought suit against her TO re-
cover the property. The Judge before
whom the case was tried was vexed that
such a trivial and unseemly family row
should be aired In court. and sharply re-
proved the plaintiff. advising him to com.
promise the matter with his sister and LEI
the suit terminate then and there.
"WHen he had finished the fellow
gravely advanced TO within q few feet OF
the Judge and said: May IL please your
honor, though II may seem like a d
humiliating analogy to you, you wouldn't
blame me IL you knew my sister as well
as do. Washington Post.

learned that the wholesale jewelry house
of II. Jandorf a Bro, 81 Maiden Lane,
New York, has made an assignment to
Herman A. Rosenfeld, with preferences of
