Dreamed of I
Hidden Gold.

A singular certifcation of a dream
was the experience Of Mrs. Rachel
Moores of Texarkana, Ark. In 1866
she was living with her husband, Maj.
David Moores, on a plantation about
30. miles south of Texarkana. They
had a large sum Of money which the
husband took out one night and bur-
led. Ten years later he died quite
suddenly, without even revealing to
the wife the hiding place Of the money,
and although diligent and repeated
search was made. no trace Of the bur-
led treasure was eyer found. Mrs.
Moores, who is now more than 70
years old, has remained a widow, liv-
ing most Of the time alone since her
death. A few weeks ago

she had a vivid dream one night, in
which she saw in. the old plantation
with certain landmarks the spot where,
as her dream indicated, the money was
buried. In a few nights the dream
was repeated. and thereafter at inter-
walls for more than a dozen times,
each. dream being an identical repe-
tition of the first. Mrs. Moores is not
at all superstitious, yet this oft-re-
peated dream led her to make a secret
Investigation recently, when, strange
as it may seem, the long-lost treasure
was found, and that, too, at a place in
the woods marked exactly as that so
often in her dream. The money was
all in $40 gold pieces, and the total
amount $4,000.

We all know that imprisonment for
debt has been abolished. but only to
make way for imprisonment for con-
tempt of court, and while. under the
new regulations, the hardship of prison
life is made easier for the convict IT
has become more stringent for the
debtor, who is rapidly becoming a
criminal, writes K3-17, No. $3.50, in
London Chronicle. Formerly, Wands-
worth Jail was a prison for female as
we'll as male prisoners, but the women
now find accommodation at Holloway
and their ward at Wandsworth has be-
come the debtors division Here the
cells are similar in all respects to those
occupied by convicts. The size, the
furniture, the utensils are identical.
The only literature allowed the debtor,
like the criminal, in the early days Of
his confinement, is the Bible, the prayer
and hymn books and a little volume
called "The Narrow Way It is

debtor. within his cell. is better off
than the convict. While the latter at
the commencement Of his i%ncarcera-
ton is compelled to rest on bare boards
the former, at all times, is provided
with cocoanut fiber mattress and pill
low, as we'll as with two coarse linen
sheets, a pillowcase and a couple of
blankets. Before the debtor is finally
locked up for the night on the day of
his arrival. at the prison he receives a
circular yellow cloth badge bearing the
number of his cell inscribed in black
on both sides, which makes him look
something like a cabman. This badge
the badge of infamy, for it is identi-
cally the same in color and all other
respects for convict and debtor alike
he is compelled to veal fastened to the
left hand side Of his coat whenever
he leaves his cell. It is absolutely il
legal to brand him in this fashion, be-
cause in the abstract from the regu-
lations exhibited in his cell it is set
forth that a debtor shall be allowed
to wear his own clothes unless they are
unfit for wear. and that even then the
clothes supplied him shall not be of the
same color as those worn by convicted
prisoners. But this badge Of the GRIM

Eldora, Oct. 26.-The jury IN the case
of Mel Clemens. accused of killing Will
lam Burghduff at Union June II last
brought In verdict at 80 this morn
ing, finding the defendant guilty of
murder in the second degree. Popular
opinion was that he would be convicted
of murder in the first degree. The jury
was out for over twelve hours and it is
supposed that the verdict was a COM
promise, the verdict precluding death
penalty. The maximum penalty for sec
.ond degree murder is life Imprisonment
and the minimum penalty in ten years.
The general belief is that Clemens Will
be given life sentence. The people
about Union have taken great Interest
in the case, many of them attending ev-
cry session of the trial. Court con-
'vened yesterday at 9 o'clock and the
Clemens trial was resumed.
y J. H. Scales continued his argument
for the defense. He occupied the time
until 1880 when court adjourned until !
o'clock. Mr.. Scales delivered very able
and exhaustive arugment consuming
some three hours. AT 1o'clork Mr. Hun
followed for the defense. His argument
was fully up to his we'll known ability.

at 5 o'clock.
His argument was strong arraign.

red have been in constant attendance as

lie Indignation is intense in that local
ity at the wantonness OF the crime, IN
fact that whole community has been
boiling with Indignation ever since the
crime was committed.
