HOME AGAIN.
First Regiment is Tasting the
Welcome of People at Home

Several towns give great blowouts =
Parkersbnrg leads In these-Seyerai
Morgantown boys have not yet return
ed-Two have Come in--They wanted
to get Back Quickl, Others will re-
main i'm the Service Dissolution
of a Splendid Regiment Completed.
The first regiment has been dis
charged and has scattered to the homes
of the men who made it up. 1t has
been one of the best regiments in the
field and the people Of the state have
good reason to be proud OF the record
that it has made. The colonel in TAX
ing leave of the men issued very
touching order thanking them for the
manner in which they had conducted
themselves and assuring them that he
would always be with them in spirit.
The men have begun to arrive at
home. The first Of the delegations be-
gan to reach the state on Monday but
the main bodies did not get in until
Tuesday when they were given enthu-
siastic receptions at many of the prin-
cipal towns. Parkersburg gave them
perhaps the most royal welcome as the
whole town turned out to meet the
soldiers with a brass band and num-
Der of speeches were fired at their de-
voted heads.
Morgantown did not have the oppor-
tunity TO do any thing Of this kind as
she sent out but lew men owing to
the refusal of the governor to allow
us to furnish 6 company. She had
several men in the regiment however
and two Of these have returned.
They are James Carrico and Gay
Kerns. The rest of the boys from
here have not turned up yet. Adju-
tant White will not be back until the
first of next month according to let
ter recently received from him and
several of the other boys will go into
the regular army or other regiments
of the volunteers.
This is said to be the intention Of
Arthur Dorsey and several members
of the band who are from this place.
The officers had more to do before
they could leave Columbus and are
taking their time in coming home.
The men wanted to come and as soon
as there was let up on the reins they
took a straight shoot for home. They
had an elegant sufficiency Of army life
and few of them would go in again
with the prospect Of much camp life
ahead of them.

broken in a collision with fellow
player at the gymnasium in a game
of basket ball recently. The injury
was very painful one but under the
skillful treatment Of DIR. Hartigan
no permanent Disagreement Is ex-
pected to follow as result of the
collision. This is the first serious
accident that has taken place since
the introduction of the popular game
at the University.

The Military Ball.

The military ball will not be given
on Washington's birthday as the
custom has been to give it for sever
al years but it will come later on In
the year after Lent. The students
who have the matter in charge have
been unable to get permission to
give the ball or to have one of the
buildings until later when they will
give the event and make it grander
than ever if the present plans are
carried out.

THE TRUTH ABOUT DREAMS

Dreams are the creations of the mind
when the body is asleep. They are, con-
sequently, not necessarily the idle good
for-nothing imag natve Pigments which
they commonly supposed to be, unless
the mind is very idle when the dreams
must be as idle as the mind.
/ know person who is governed large
ly by dreams, and he is not a foolish sort
of man, either. He has an office on Wall
street, and in twenty years he has amasS-
ed fortune. He told me he would never
have done it without his dream mind.
The difference between the mind waking,
and the mind sleeping, is that in the form
er case there is an environment which can
not be shaken off; in the latter case there
is not such thing as environment and the
mind wanders over the earth as it WILL
This is in some cases a help; in others a
hindrance. Properly directed it is of in
estimable benefit.
The dream life can be trained just as
the earth life is trained. The dream
thought is subject to direction in certain
channels. If you doubt this go to sleep
tonight thinking some certain thing ana
note how, by morning, you will have
worked it out
Take the worst problem you have to
grapple with today. Go to sleep thinking
of it, AS your mind begins to wander over
the green fields of Drowsyland concentrate
your mind on that problem. Let it take a
fantastic shape in your thoughts as you
wander off. Let the people who are in 1t
appear in the strange visionary way they
appear in sleep. Try it. Note how the fol-
lowing morning the problem is worked out
simple, clear, it's solution within your
grasp. Men as great as you nave tried
this and found it has worked admirably
The writer once remembers an exceed
ingly difficult problem in algebra which
was given her to solve in the Albany high
school. 1t could not be worked out and at
10 o'clock the poor little student retired
but only to work all night upon that prob
lem in sleep Next morning she woke with
the answer written before her eyes and the
problem worked itself OUT easily before
breakfast.

TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND
In Gold Stolen from Steamer Alameda's
Treasure Room

San Francisco, June 2.-There was great
excitement on board the steamer Alameda
upon her arrival today when it was dis
covered that a box containing 5000 sover-
eigns was missing. Five hundred thousand
dollars in gold had been sent by the
steamer from Sydney. The money was
separated in twenty steel boxes, each con-
tanning $4,000 in British gold. One of these
boxes was distracted from the steamers
treasure room during the voyage. The
theft is apparently shrouded in the deepest
mystery.
To thoroughly understand the peculiar
ity and dizziness of the crime, it is neces-
sary to know that large sums of money,
frequently exceeding a million in amount,
come from Australia by every steamer.
The consisnments of gold represent the
balance of trade in favor of the United
States. The general theory Is that a num-
Der were implicated in the theft and that
when the box OF sovereigns was opened it
was opened and the gold divided among
the robbers. The police have arrested five
men who came on the steamer on suspi-
cion.

SNAPPY TRADING
WAS LACKING

Firmness at Manchester Mills-Liv-
erpool Market Closed in Cele-
bration of Queens Birthday

New York, June 3.-The cotton market
opened quiet and steady, with prices un-
changed to one point higher. During the
entire session vigorous, snappy trading
was lacking. The professional contingent,
as had been their wont dufinS the week,
were content to rest on their oars, or
quietly reduce outstanding obligations.
Investors were quite purposeless.
The crop news was bearish in general
tenor, the weather chart showing the cot
ton region to be free from rain with the
temperature ranging between IA and 50,
receipts were exceptionally light, spot
cotton markets steady and print cloth mar
kets strong. Private cables reported con-
tinued firmness at Manchester cloth and
yarn mills. The Liverpool market was
closed today in celebration of the queen 8
birthday. Futures closed quiet, with prices
net unchanged to one point higher.

and their influence upon matters OF cur
rent interest can, many scientists believe,
be traced to this source, the unconscious
workings of the brain while asleep.
The people, therefore, who believe in
dreams and place their trust in them are
not as foolish as many believe, for there
is a foundation admitted by ell psychol-
ogists for dream truths.
Dreams, as used in guides for love, mar
rage, divorce and all the other phases of
human interest are Invaluable provided
they are trained in the right direction.
A young lady of my acquaintance went
to sleep one night dreaming of a young
man who was paying his attentions to her.
He had proposed to her that evening and
she had asked for day in which to oon-
slider the matter. That kight she went

was minded in her dreams to accept the
young man. She did SO and with very
happy results -
The "signs" Of dreams are to be quos-
TONED, though there are sign manuals
which are considered reliable They are
based upon the natural signs employed by
the deaf, dumb and blind, as being the
signs selected by nature for expression OF
her emotions. They differ so greatly In in
divduals that no certain reliable interpre-
tations can be set for all dream signals
There are persons who study out human
character and its relation to the dreams
of the Individual; and. these are said to
give some very satisfactory results. t.
The old superstition "if you dream of q
fire you yili hear of q death" has its foun-
dation in mind worry or mind scare.
