BAREFooTED ON SNOW AND ICE
A Boy Dreams of a Murder and Walks q
Mile In His Sleep.


SALISBURY, MD, Feb. 25.-[SpectaL1 - One
night last week William, the 13-year-old son
of Granville Banks, who lives at Salem, this
county, dreamed that his father and mother
and entire family were being murdered in
the house. In order to escape death himself
he arose and, hoisting the window of his
room on the second floor and clad only in
his night clothes, he descended to the ground
by means of ladder which had been left by
some painters. Bareheaded and barefooted,
he walked over to the home of Mr.. Harcum
on the next farm below, a distance OF one
mile.
On his way he had to walk along the bank
of a creek running between the two farms
until he came TO its head, where he crossed
through it, crushing the ice with his bare
feet He reached Mr.. Harcum's house about
4 o'clock in the morning. MI. Harcum was
up and asked the sleeping boy what was the
matter, receiving the reply that his family
was being murdered. Mr.. Harcum suspected
that the young boy was not awake, as he
showed no signs of being cold although the
night was an intensely cold one. After sit
ting by the fire q short time young Banks
awoke and affightedly looking about him
was seized with a violent chill. He was
placed in bed and made as comfortable as
possible. Mr.. Harcum hurried over to the
Banks home and told the parents OF the
strange adventure of their son. The boy is
all right now, but little sore about the
feet.

When a national bank closes its doors
the notes bearing its name are just as
valuable as those bearing the name of
the best institution in the country. This
is the result Of the admirable Republic
an system of national banking, and
this is the system which the Chicago
convention demanded to have over
thrown. The crazy declaration Of that
body in favor Of a return to the abom-
Unable system of banking in vogue be-
fore the war, is an insult to the intelli-
gence of the people and a menace to the
finances of the country Every vote
with the Democrats or with the Peoples
party means a return to the wretched
system Of state bank currency which
caused millions Of dollars losses to far
mers and others before the present SPLEEN
did system of safe and reliable currency

The Grand Army's sympathy with Presi-
dent Harrison.
On learning that President Harrison
would DO unable to attend the G. A. r..
encampment at Washington, owing to
the serious illness of Mrs. Harrison,
Commander-in-chie Palmer issued the
following:
The painful circumstance which pre-
vents the president from attending the
great reunion of the veterans in Wash
ington is deeply regretted by all his
comrades in arms, regardless Of party.
He was a participant in the gland re-
view Of the arms in 1865, and has taken
a deep interest," in the coming encamp-
ment, and it was expected that he would
not only participate in the march, which
promises to be the great elimination Of
the great gatherings of the Union veter-
ans, but in all the festivities of the week.
The critical illness Of his beloved wife
has compelled him to remain by her
bedside. Speaking out of the depth of
my heart, and voicing the feelings Of all
his comrades, we pray that He who
ruleth armies and nations give our presi-
dent strength and fortitude to bear his
great affliction, and that the partner Of
his life may be restored to health.
