nearly all the members strive to make it
an instructive social organization by be

Saw Heaven and Hell.


Raleigh, n. c., Jan. 25.-Many persons
in Wilmington believed Pasco Hedges
died and came to life again for the pur-
pose OF telling his friends that heaven
and hell were realities. Before falling i'll
he was an atheist, as were many of his
friends. They did not believe there WAS
God. a heaven. or hell. His views
changed. however, on his death bed, and
on Friday he was baptized by Father
Cahill OF the Catholic church and order
ed his atheistic books to be burned. On
Saturday he became unconscious. and the
physicians, fearing that the end had come.
requested his wife to leave the room.
Soon afterwards he sat up in bed, and
called his wife, and taking her in his
arms, said he had died but she had
brought him to life by her distress. Then
to the startled group of atheistic friends
who had by this time collected around
him, he said expressively
There is a he'll: there is heaven; I
have seen both"
Then he described both and saying
tlal Jesus WIS waiting lOG ultn anu Ee
must so, bade his wife farewell. placed
his hands in attitude of prayer, became
unconscious. and remained SO until the
end. Those around who had professed
unbelief trembled and wept bitterly.
