STRANGE TALE.

Portland, Ore, Special to the San Fran
cisco Bulletin: Clinton l.. Wells. a we'll
known miner, came in from southern Ore
gon today and reported the strange death
in one of the camps of Hiram r. Sperry.
once a policeman here. p.
Sperry died last Thursday, after having
seemingly been in a trance for two days,
and without complaining of sickness be-
fore he entered upon his fatal sleep. He
had been a theosophist, and not Until his
body began decomposing would others Of
his faith permit of his interment. How
ever, on Thursday a post-mortem exam
ination was made, with startling results.
The physician undertaking the work is
a scientific man, and, upon concluding the
examination, he remarked that each and
all of the dead mans organs were as
healthy as they were on the day he was
ushered into this world. He could not
find the remotest cause for the suspen-
sion OF respiration, and there seemed no
physical agent apparent to medical sci-
ence which should have brought about
Sperry's death.
Wells had known Sperry intimately for
the better part of a year, during which
time Sperry had three frances. each of
several days duration, when his body
seemed in actual rigor mortis.
After recovering from one of these
frances" remarked Mr.. Wells, "Sperry
was more clipper than ever, md he
would narrate the most remarkaD Die tales
about what he had seen during the period
Of his enhancement. The other theoso-
phists in the camp took the matter very
seriously, but we believed the poor fellow
to be suffering from a periodical sick
ness. But a week before Sperry's death
I called at his cabin one night, when In
the midst of our conversation his body
grew rigid, and he lost his power OF
speech. He remained in that state for
half IN TOUR. Meanwhile, / mmone a
doctor, who, however failed to relieve
him. When Sperry regained conscious
! ness he was in a Respondent frame Of
mind. He could not realize that our con-
versation had been interrupted for a mos
ment but he resumed the discussion of
the subject almost at the word where he
was rendered speeches.. Even. the pres
ence of the doctor seemed to arouse no
! surprise in his mind. At least he ex-
pressed none. .
AT the conclusion of the ordinary ak
| Sperry, in a mournful tone, said that al
though he was then in the best of health.
on Aug. 20, 1909, at 1916 p. M, he would
pass to another life. The doctor and I
tried to talk him out of his idea, but he
simply laughed at us, saying he had
within the past hour been positively sum-
moned. He added regrets at leaving this
life at so short a notice, as he would thus
be compelled to neglect some Of his at
! fairs"
Concluding, Wells asseverated that all
came to pass as Sperry predicted. His
respiration did not fail up to exactly 1915
p. m. on the day Of his demise.
The deceased has relatives here, n as
he left a small estate his remain will
probably be exhumed and brought here
for final burial.

At the beginning Of the act q beautiful

Mrs. Frazier and her. daughters, Miss
Frazier, Mrs. H. B.. McCay and Mrs.
Emma Hart, gave a joint afternoon re-
ception at Mrs. FraZier's residence during
Friday and Saturday afternoons. Over
$50 people attended, and the affair was
one of almost unapproached elegance.
Thu floral decorations were something
which in profusion was never attempted
in this city, every room being EMPOWERED
in the choicest Of cut flowers, while
banks of them gladdenedf the eye from
every point of view. Thu scene was one
of rare beauty and called forth unbound
ed and unfeigned admiration from all
who saw it. No one seems capable of
forming an estimate of the amount OF
flowers with which the house was be-
decked. For amusement each guest was
given a sack of beans which represented
4eo, 600 in money. With this they bid on
done-up packages n procured interest
ing souvenirs of the occasion, some Of
which were expensive as we'll az OF in
trinsic value. Everyone got something
to remember this memorable occasion by.
Those who assisted on Saturday after
noon were Misses Gage, Margaret and
~Suprenant, Gardner. Anceny, Mrs. J. c.
Carter and Mrs. F. L. Benepe.

another party for Paul, who invited his
friends, somewhat older than Ruth's, and
they, too, had an enjoyabl and memora
BILE time.
Mrs. Walter Cooper on Tuesday last

one of his letter that it might be pub
lished in fac-simile. The request was
readily granted, but the same night the
office was burned with it's contents, and
the letter was lost. The little girl was
inconsolable, but in searching among the
debris the letter was found with it's mar
gin badly scorched, but the manuscript
uninjured. She got her letter back, to-
gether with a fac-simile Of it after it's
passage through it's fiery ordeal. and in
that shape it was presented to the read
ers of the periodical.

ford Mr.. Hoyt and his company plenty
of opportunity to introduce some novel
specialties, topical songs, clever dancing
and amusing situations.
"A Black Sheep" is claimed to be one
of those Jolly entertainments that ev-
crbody wants to see, and should see. Mr..
Hoyt has a knack of securing the best
comedy people in America. and really
seems to have surpassed himself in the
company which he has engaged to por-
