According to story told by relatives of
Mrs. Julia Finn, of 1909 Lincoln street,
this city, she has undergone an experience
which has befallen but few persons.
Six weeks ago Mrs. Finn was taken
sick with the grip ana other symptoms
developed which puzzled the physicians
and caused the family great alarm.
The patient lay in comatose state ftr
DAYS at a time, accepting nourishment in
limited quantities. Part of this nourish'
meat was given through glass tube,
which % had to be inserted in her mouth.
Her condition was not considered alarm.
ing by her physicians, Drs. Chandler and
Palmer, until one evening about week
ago.
About this time the family was gathered
at the bedside waiting for Mrs. Finn to
show some signs Of regaining conscious,
ness, when suddenly her sister happened
to place 0. hand upon her forehead and, re-
coiling from its cold touch, burst into o
scream. saying that her sister was dead.
AS neither of the regular physicians was
at hand another doctor was sent for, and
upon examining the body said Mrs Finn
was probably dead.
Mrs. Finn lay apparently lifeless; her
flesh was cold and the pusations of her
heart, as for as the physician was able to
ascertain, had ceased. She was finally
given up for dead.
After four hours Of apparent death she
revived and told sorrowful relatives and
friends they said she had been in trance
and had overheard all that had been said
about her, even the details regarding the
arrangements for the funeral. While
Mrs. Finn has not yet fully recovered, her
family hope to see her well again in q
short time.

There are persons in Sussex county who
absolutely refuse to believe that James
NJ. Gordy paid the penalty for the murder
of his wife on the scatfold. They assert
as their opinion that Gordy is alive and
we'll to-day, and that the sheriff either
hanged dummy instead Of the murderer,
or else the job was performed in such u
manner that Gordy did not meet MUIR
derer's end.
Some of these persons appear to believe
that Gordy, after hanging at the end of a
rope eleven minutes, was cut down and
put in coffin while unconscious and thot
he revived on the way to the burylng
ground, his relatives aiding him in his
escape. This belief, they say, Is strength
ened by the information that the MUIR
derer's neck was not broken by the fall.
BY Attorney General White and Sheriff
johnson these stories arc dismissed as un-
worthy of belief The sheriff does not
hesitate to say that Gordy was as dead as
the colored man who, after being mutt
lated by q Princess Anne mob, was hang
ed from limb of tree.
Another rumor Is to the effect that on
the day he was led to his death Gordy
told his brothers that he had all his say
ings concealed under his first wife's tomb,
near Whitesviile, and that the brothers
upon investigation found about S3,2OG
there. Apparently the Gordy case Will
not down.

clubs.

Program of the Coming Rqces Boz
tween Educational Institutions.
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, June 2l.-The
Yale crew arrived last night. The ar
rival of the New Haven giants will
now make it possible for the collegiate
experts who have picked winners and
condemned methods to change their
opinions. That the men who landed
last night will be in the race is ap-
parent. The eight as picked to row
on varsity day weigh just 1872 pounds
more than the Cornell men, and about
10 pounds more than the Harvard
crew. So far as can be seen they form
as formidable a crew as Yale has ever
had.
The program for the entire series Of
races is:
Wednesday, June 23-Two-miIe race
for freshmen of Yale, Harvard and
Cornell, to be rowed up stream between
and o'clock p. m.
Friday, June 2j-Four-mtle race for
varsity crews of Yale, Harvard and
Cornell, to be rowed down stream at
$3.50 p. m. sharp.
Wednesday, June 30-Two-mile race
between Cornell, Columbia and Penn
sylvania, to be rowed down stream be-
tween and p. m.
Friday, July 2-Four-mile varsity
race between Cornell, Columbia and
Pennsylvania, to be rowed down
stream between 4 and p. m.
There Is much discussion here about
the tide changes, and it is feared that
unless the race is pulled off sharply on
June 25 there may be trouble for the
crew that gets the beginning of the
flood.

MILITIA CALLED OUT
To Suppress Turbulent Italians IN a
Massachusetts Town.

To Suppress Turbulent Italians IN a
Massachusetts Town.
South birmingham, Mass, June 81
A street brawl by drunken Italian la
borers and the attempted arrest of one
of them by officers, one Of whom was
nearly killed, led to the calling out of
the local militia company early yester-
day morning. The Italians came into
town here on the train from Natick
just after midnight, and four Of them
had savage fight on Waverly street.
Officers Robert Trace and David Bas-
ton made an attempt to stop the fight
by warning the men to go home peace
ably. But they would not do so, and
the officers attempted to arrest one of
the ringeaders. The sCrlmmage was
short and fierce, for all the Italians set
upon the officers in the attempt to res
cue the arrested man, and officer Bas-
ton was dubbed with a beer bottle,
his skull being fractured.
Shortly before o'clock the police
sounded the militia alarm on the bells
and steam whistles, but as rain was
pouring in torrents few of the soldiers
turned out. The object was to scour
the town for the assailants of Officer
Bastion and this meant the surround
ing of the Italian colony here. The
militiamen who responded accompanied
the police force and a number Of citi-
zens to Dogs Nest" as the colony Is
known, where a house to house search
was made. Three men were arrested,
two of whom Officer Trace identified
as participating in the fight. They
were taken to the police station, and
will be held to await the result of
officer Bastion's injuries. At the hos
pital physicians report his condition
aS homeless
