crowds came to view the city for the
first time from all quarters of the
world, enormously swelling the already
great population of the city. Elec-
tricity was advanced in its highest
form in all the industries. Mechanics
of every class here found the ideal
field for progress. The social, literary
and commercial interests had reached
the highest typical plane. The city
entered 1899 with a marvellous history
behind it. The wonderful metropolis
not only astonished the world, but sur
prised its own people.

A Prophetic Dream.

The following prophetic dream ia
related by the president of theolOg-
ical seminary: 1t had been the Gus
tom of one of the professors to invite
all the students, with members of the
faculty, to dinner at hotel on the
annual Thanksgiving day. On the
morning Of that day the wife of this
professor suddenly fell dead In her
dressing room at s o'clock.
That morning ut o'clock one of
the students woke up from bad
dream He had dreamed that he sat
down with the usual company at the
Thanksgiving dinner and that i'm
medlately one of his fellow students
rose in his place, saying that it was
his painful duty to announce to the
company that the wife of their host
had suddenly died ut s o'clock that
morning.
This dream, however, he had In
instantly banished from his mind as
an uucanny probability, and had
thought no more about it. But on
going to the dinner and taking his seat
with the company he was unspeakably
amazed to see the student seen In the
dream rise and to hear him make the
announcement made in the DREAM
