'1t was the dream" shrieked the grief
stricken woman as she fell, fainting, into
the arms of Mrs Curtiss.
1t was the fact, for not half biock
from his home the aged railroad employe
had dropped dead stricken by heart dis
ease, while he was on his way to MS
work. Some little children saw him reel
stagger and fall to the ground. They did
not realize what had actually occurred,
that the DEATH so remarkably foretoio,
had come. So the witnesses ran to Police,
man Curtiss' residence close by and
called him. saying there was drunken
man down the street.
CurtiSs ran out and saw the PROSTATE
form of his friend and neighbor. The
hand of death was there, and before Dr.
Vida Redington, who had been quickly
called. could reach the scene the stricken
man breathed his last.
Then, as if guided by prophecy, Curtiss
sent to his own residence and told his
wife to go at once and tell Mrs. Sugden
what had occurred.
Thus the message Of death was borne
to the family with all of the detail that
pertained to the dream of Friday night.
1.-The atrangest story ever heard in ac-
tual life" said Policeman Curtiss, as he
related the circumstances. while she
was not at her dead husbands side. Mrs
Sugden related the facts about her dream
of Friday night, when with such startling
effect the scene of to-day was placed be-
fore her mental sight There was every
condition of the dream fulfilled. Nothing
that had occurred during the vision failed
of recurrence in reality.

London, March 23.-The foreign Of
fce takes pessimestic view OF the
Immediate future in the far east, IN
spite of the settlement Of the Tien
Tsin incident, and entertains grave
fears that the relations between ia
pan and Russia may shortly reach
the danger point.
Judging from information obtain
ed in various official quarters In Lon
don, Japan has confided to at least
some of the powers her determination
to oppose at all costs any secret
agreements made between Russia ana
China by which the former could Sc
cure territorial or other advantages
The British goy(ernment has re-
ceiyed no official Confirmation that
the Japanese feet is mobilizing, but
It would not be surprised to learn
that such were the facts. A highly
placed British official said to rep
resentative of the Associated Press:
"All Japan wants is a free hand
aginst Russia. This she has got so
far as England and Germany are con-
cerned, and, l presume, so far as the
cerned, although | do not imagine for
one moment that any Of the powers
mentioned would be drawn into a
war between Japan and Russia. IL
Japan sees nothing for it but to fight,
she would have the moral support of
objections committed to paper by at
least two other powers against Sc
cret treaties with China. That is all,
but Japan seems to consider it suf-
ficient to provide against interfer-
ence."
Confirmation of the foregoing
definition of the southern was af
forded by the secretary of the Japan
ese legation, who said in the course
Of an interview:
'While rejoicing at the fact that
England and Russia have reached a
pacific settlement over the minor is
sue, the main question-the integrity
OF the Chinese empire-remains un-
settled. In response to pressure
brought by Japan upon Russia, it was
announced that Russias secret
treaties with China had been modi-
fed. but the terms have been with
held. Until we see the treaties, we
will not be satisfied that the modifi-
cation does not consist of words
merely, without any alteration in the
spirit. In this contention we believe
other powers will support u.s."
It appears that Great Britain would
be quite willing to refer the whole
Manchurian matter to arbitration on
the lines Of The Hague conference.
The Tien Tsin siding affair is not con-
sidered important enough to be dis.
posed OF in this way, and it will i'm.
mediately become a matter Of diplo-
matte interchange between st. Peters.
