NV chivalrous adventure in p,

every opportunity of Distinguishing

for epaulettes.
'0ne day. while recommending,
yentured too far from the outposts
and fell into AN ambuscade Of Turks
In the twinkling Of an eye, | wa:
seized, bound, gagged and carried
on mans back into the enemy:
camp, and when the bandage waI
removed from my eyes, found my
self surrounded by about dozen
men attired in strange-looking
uniform, which seemed to be hall
Turkish and half Russian.
'One glance sufficed to assure NE
that there had been an engagement
on this spot the night before; on
long grass were stretched the cor
pses of the czar's soldiers, and
crouched beside them were Mussul-
men tearing Off the clothing and
quarrelling and swearing as they
divided among themselves the gar
ments of the dead.
My attention was soon diverted
from this horrible sight, however,
for the men around me began to
despoil me also of my clothes, and
| could hear them dividing, in ad-
vance, the different articles Of my
apparel; they had already unfasten-
ed my coat, when ] suddenly caught
the sound of few words spoken in
the Russian language.
Il am not surprised l cried, .at
being robbed by these Mohammedan
ours, but that Russian should
stoep to such conduct
You mistake said the same
voice, Il am not Russian, / am a
Pole.'
The speaker turned toward me,
and looked at him in surprise, as
he continued angrily:
Yes, | am Pole, and when my
countrymen bowed their necks to
the yoke and resigned themselves,
with hatred in their hearts, to the
Russian rule, / fled from my home.

'You could have killed me, and |

must not be said that Pole was
guilty of ingratitude toward an
enemy, even though it were to a

He said few words TO the
Turks, who instantly moved away,
and then, signing me to follow
him, he silently led me to our own
outposts.

Spirit Wants Justice Done.

Two years ago Mrs. Eliza Rumery, of
Saco, Me-, died and by her will left
49, 900 to the Advent Society Of Bidde-
ford. Mrs. Rumery had been living in
the family of Amaziah Emery, of Ever
EFT, Mass. She died there and the fam
lily expected to inherit her property.
When they found that her money was
left to the Adventists they took steps to
contest the will. The case was to have
been heard on October L, but the con-
testants did not appear and the case
was nonsuiteI. Recently the case
was re-opened on the strength of
three letters, said to have been writ
ten by Mrs. Rumerv shortly before her
death, III which she expressed the de-
sire that the Emerys should have her
property instead of the Adyentists, be-
cause she had been unduly influenced
by a Saco attorney to make her will III
favor of that society Mrs. Emery says
that one night, shortly before they de-
cided to contest the viii, Mrs. Rumery' S
spirit appeared to her and told her to
open the family Bible at the twenty
fourth Psalm. Mrs. Emery did so and
she found the three letters, the exist
ence of which she had not known be-
fore.

She Spoke Without a Tongue.

One of the most remarkable cases on
record was that of woman, we'll au-
thenticated at the beginning of the last
century, who had no tongue, and yet
spoke with perfect clearness. She was
brought to Lisbon, in Spain, by Count
d Ericeya, from Monsary, in the Terri
tory of Eivas, Portugal, and the follow
ing account is given of her by an emf
nent divine:
"She is II years old, but does not
look more than I. She can pronounce
distinctly every letter in the alphabet:
She has not the least bit of a tongue, but
the teeth in both sides of her under jaw
turn very much inward and almost
meet. Her chief difficulty is in eating,
for while others move their food with
their tongue, she is forced to use her
finger. She says that she tastes well.
Her voice, thou Oh very distinct, is lit
tie hollow and like that Of old people
who have lost their teeth"

Two years ago a newspaper man of

occult means of the death of a relative.
The relative in question was an uncle
who had always taken great interest in
his welfare. The newspaper man was
riding in Pennsylvania Railroad
smoking car from Trenton to New 1ork.
The car was almost empty. He was
there was no one behind him in the car
at ALL The conductor, a bra keman and
one or two passengers were i'll the front
part of the car. Suddenly. the news
paper man felt the sensation Of a hand
being placed on his shoulder, as though
some friend wanted to attract his atten-
ton. Surprised, he looked around, but
there was no one there. His uncle had
died that evening in another state.

Automatic Writing.

The sister of a Washington young
woman died two years ago. The sur
vivor was sitting at desk one day with
pencil in her hand, when all at once
she felt sharp thrill, like that caused
by the application of an electric bat
terry, and spontaneously, without any
impulse on her own part, she began to
write. She rolled off page after page,
until she had written several hundred
words. The matter purported to be a
message from her sister and was COM
posed of very elevated thought, ex-
pressed in most felicitous English.
This message was followed by a num-
Der of others at different times. The
young lady and her parents were of a
very practical turn of mind. They had
never had anything to do with spiritual
istic matters and were as much mysti-
fed by the phenomena as anyone could
be. 1t is certain that the young lady,
who is very young, could not produce
work of such a high literary quality.
There was no reason for fraud, as the
people are of the highest character and
the manifestations were made known
only to few.
