A QUEER EXPERIENCE.
IL Made One Man believer In the
Supernatural.

1t throws me somewhat In doubt as to
whether l believe IN the supernatural.
You all know what Il fondness l have
pr driving, and the more spirited the
horses are the better feel to put them
on their mettle Well a few summers
ago l bought a pair of high strung,
strongly built bay horses and began to
drive them. One Sunday morning !
carefully hooked them to my surrey.
personally saw that every strap was
well hooked, the chains carefully ad-
justed and, IN fact. every precautiOn
taken to have them so harnessed that
there could be nothing to fret them.
Il drove up st. Charles avenue to
Washington. out Washington to the
railroad crossing, back again to St.
Charles avenue and then up to Car
rollton until opposite the old Carroll
ton gardens and there stopped to rest
under tree. We had moved AT a
pretty good pace the weather was
warm, and believed that a little rest
would do the horses good. forgot to
tell you that had in the rear seat Of
the surrey my wife and daughters.
"We stopped just under a tree, on
the side OF the neutral ground, and
there waited. Just then n party Of
about twenty bicycllsts came in sight,
coming up the avenue. AS they passed
us my horses reared and made one
plunge. had the reins in my hand,
and the ladies' were seated I'm the sur

away-ran away. mind you. from the
surrey unhitched. The surrey remained
perfectly still for a moment and then
by its own momentum slowly slid
down to the sidewalk. We all got out
without the slightest anxiety what
over. It was perfectly astounding.
1--WE made a careful examination or
the straps. the hooks. the chains. the
pole. and there was nothing broken,
nothing strained. nothing bent-in fact,
It was Just as If some unseen spirits
had carefully unlocked the horses and
let them go. The horses were brought
back in about two hours. We again
made careful examination Of the
harness, and assure You the entire
outfit was IN perfect condition-noth-
ing broken. nothing hurt or damaged
whatever. Now, how can you account
for that? / am not inclined to believe
in the supernatural. but at times when
think over this incident do not
know what to believe Orleans

President May Summon Mitchell In
Connection With Operators Plan.
Washington, Oct 15.-All efforts to
ascertain at the White House last
night whether President Roosevelt has
communicated to President John
Mitchell the proposition of the mine
operators, with a view to the resump-
ton of work, we're unavailing. The Of
ficials there declined absolutely to say
anything on the subject at thnt time
for publication. The impression is
quite general. however, IN Washington
that Mr.. Roosevelt, in continuation OF
his determination to bring about If
possible the resumption Of work. has
addressed some sort Of a communica-
ton to Mr.. Mitchell in connection with
the operators proposition, and that a
reply from him may come at any time.
Indeed. it would not be surprising II
Mr.. Mitchell has or soon will be In.
vited to come to washington to talk
over the situation with the president
but whether he has or not the officials
will not say.
