OF this country are In some way descended
from them. Most OF the bond servants
were either beguiled by false promises
in England or directly kidnapped. The
irst hsbeas- corpus act expressly ex
cspted sue people IRON its privileges.
Naturally there were many romantic
occurances growing out Of this system OF
bond service, and curious stories are told
OF husbands who sold their wives into
bond service or OF wives, who, firing OF
their lords and masters, persuaded them
TO set sail and sold then into bondage.
There is tradition in Mryland's local
history that sea captain found little
boy lost in Lincoln's Inn Fields, London.
He offered to take the child to his father,
got hlm on shipboard and sold him into
Maryland. The lad was never able
afi-rward to trace his family. The story
is that when be became prosperous
planter he brought from convict ship
the selfsame captain who had sold him
whereupon the captain committed sui
eide. Another singular occurrence was
that of the marriage Of two young ladies',
who ran away with two Of their fathers
bond servants. They sirerwsrd returned
and were forgiven. IL is recorded that
in after years young lady who was de-
scended from one OF these pond servants,
refused James Buchanan because he WAS
only "briefess bafrister," and de-
scendent Of the other sister scorned the
proposal OF struggling young lawyer
who Afterwards became chief justice Of
Pennsylvania.

What Dre1mers Hear.

A lawyer who had been over
worked rose in his sleep, went into
the hall OF his house and discharged a
pistol. The household hurried to the
place and found him at the head Of
the stairway, awake, but very much be-
wildered He had dreamed Of bur
glars and had gone to attack them.
One member Of the family slept
through the noise When he came
into the dining room-before he heard
the events OF the night-he com
planned that his sleep had been much
disturbed.
He had dreamed that he had been
condemned TO be shot, that he had
been led to the place Of execution and
had fallen senseless when the guns
were fired.
Says Kate Fields Washington, a lady
dreamed that man came into her room
poured some W iter into basin, carried
the spi4shing WAGER to her bedside and
began TO sprinkle it over her. She awoke
and heard load spltshlnz. At first -he
was notionless with fear, but pres
emily she lighted candle and went
TO the basin, where she found mouse
making frantic efforts to get ont Of
the water.
Another dreamed that she had
severe earache; that she arose, un-
locked the door that separated her
room from one in which two children
slept and went to a shelf where there
was a lotion which she applied TO her
ear. When she awoke she found her.
self in her own bed and without pain.
The door was still locked, but in u few
minutes one of the chil iren began TO
cry that his ear sched, and she rose
and went to the shelf for the lotion.
A young man dreamed that he WAS
in his office bnSy with a troublesome
estimate when woman came in with
a screaming baby and began to walk
rapidly up and down the room, so that
il was impossible for the calculator to
remember his figures. Presently the
woman thrust the child into his arms
and he was so startled by this that be
awoke But the screams still troubled
his ears, for mother in the neighbor-
ing room was walking abou, vainly trying
to quiet crying child.
Several years after the death Of her
husband a widow, lying awake one night,
recalled vividly some scenes OF her hus-
bands last illness. Presently her daugh-
ter, who was beside her. awoke and said !:
"Oh, mamma, have been going over in
my dreams all the scenes OF pspa's last
illness" She then told her dream, 10
which the scenes were almost the coun-
terpart Of those that had been recalled
by her mother.

tervals OF about an nour. 'Iney at
first resemble a low murmur, but
ere long there is heard loud knock
ing somewhat like the strokes of a
bell, and which at the end of about
five minutes becomes so strong as to
agitate the sand.
The explanation Of this curious
phenomenon given by the Arabs is
that there is a convent under the
ground here, and that these sounds
are those of the bell which the monks
ring for prayers. So they call it Ma
kous, which means bell. The Arabs
affirm that the noise so frightens
their camels when they hear it as to
render them furious. Philosophers
attribute the sound to suppressed
volcanic action-probably to the hub
bling of gas or vapors underground.

Russian Images.

The manufacture of ilons, the sa-
cred images so universally venerated
by the orthodox Russians, forms a
very considera bic household industry
in the governments Of Vladimir and
Kursk, where from 1,5o0. 600 to 2, 000,-
600 ikons are yearly produced. These
images are painted on lime tree, al
der and aspen boards by boys, girls,
adults and old men. Each family of
four to five workers produces an
nually not fewer than 5000 ikons,
the total earnings being from 200 to
400 rubles a year.
The ikon is painted by one work
man, as in the government of Kursk,
or it goes successfully to many, as
practiced in the governmental Vladi-
mir. In the latter case the first work
man only lays the ground Oh the
boards. Another paints the faces,
the third the hands and drapery,
while the fourth writes the super
