NO EXTRA SESSION

OF the Indiana Legislature Will be
Held, Says Gov. Matthews.
Governor Matthews, of Indiana, hes
made reply to the committee which
asked him TO call an extra session of
helegislature to pass an apportionment
bill. The governor declined to call
the extra session and gives as reasons
that four.fif of the people of the
state do not want the legislature of
1896 in session again; that the body
was given an opportunity to pass a
constitutional bill and that the petit
ton did not have a majority of the
members of either branch of the legis-
lature.

To The Golden Gate

Undoubtedly California offers more
genuine attractions to the pleasure travel
ing public than any other part Of the
American continent. The fame cf its
climate is worldwide, and it il sought
even by Europeans, who find it more
charming than their own southern slopes
To Americans its worth is too well known
to necessitate description of the many
advantages to be enjoyed.
Personally y-conducted tours via Pennsyl-
vania Railroad will leave New York and
Philadelphia February ~ and March H.
1896. In addition to the many other
points ofinterest visited on the first tour
a stop will be made at New Orleans for the
Mardi-Gras festivities, and four weeks Will
be allowed in California. On the second
toIr four and one-half weeks will be allow
ed in California.
An addition to the magnificent train
heretofore used for these tours is
thorough Pullman compartment car
The car, which will be the best that the
Pullman Company can supply will con
tain nine inclosed 0mpartments-twO
drawing rooms and seven state rooms
and will be attached TO the special train at
Jersey City and run through to San Diego,
Cal, on the first tour and San Francisco on
the second.
Thio will be the first car of its kind TO be
run on transcontinental trsin, and that
it will be thoroughly appreciated by parti
clpants in the tours is evidenced by the
fact that already several Of the compart-
ments have been reserved.

a Modem Rip Van Wrinkle.

Seven years ago a Plke-couuty man
went to sleep, ard lie has just walked up
Mr.. William Depue, 2 citizen of Bushkill,
Pike county, Is the man who for seven
years was lost to the world, living in a
semi conscious state and his mind being
almost perfect blank. He is very reluc-
tant about discussing his almost unparal-
leled case
Seven years ago while at work M De
pue was suddenly taken i'll. Doctors were
summoned, but could determine no posi-
bic ailment. The sick man sank into cata-
leptio sleep from which no powers oc medi-
cal science could give him any relief. At
no time daring the long period did he ap
pear to recognize any person, and food
was given to him through q tube inserted
in his mouth. He lost no aesh and as
apparently as healthy as AM man. Al.
taoJgh the best medical men in the coun-
try were called 70 his bedside, his case bafH
ed them all.
Upon recovering his senses he set about
his usual labOrs as if he had been asleep
about the ordinary time, but, strange to
say, Mr.. Depue remembers nothing that
has taken place during his seven year
trance. The only difficulty he experiences
is that he IS almost blind. Otherwise his
physical condition is perfect.
