We could hardly endure the air

all others and thus give us warning
of their presence.

The pretty girl who sat opposite
Castleton in the Pullman car had at

and that she was pretty. But when

THIS IS A DREAM STORY.
But 1t IL q Very Good One for Those
Who Believe In Such
Things.

A former Boston newspaper mar
told story not long ago of an ex
perience of young woman of his
acquaintance, which, while it has not
yet been embodied in any work OF
fiction, at least gives evidence of i'm
aginative powers and may be consid
cred later, says the Boston Herald
The young woman spent her summer
at an old Marshfield farmhouse, the
windows of which had an outlook OF
the ocean. She had fad, of course
and it was the collection of various
kinds of seaweed.
According to the story, she had q
dream one night of storm-tossed
mariner who came and stood by hel
side and implored her aid in going on
q search for treasure lost at certain
point in the Indian ocean. The dream
passed and the morning came. The
young woman was about to leave her
room when she noticed small pool
of water which might have been
caused by dripping umbrella, near
the fireplace. In the pool foated a
small piece of seaweed of a variety
which she had never seen before
She could not account for it, but it
was carefully preserved in speci-
men book.
Not long after she was q passen-
ger on one of the ocean liners.
Among her fellow-passengers was a
professor in one of the English uni
versities, and an acquaintance was
formed between the two. The pro-
fessor shared to certain extent her
interest in seaweeds, and one day
she was turning over the leaves of
her specimen book in his company.
Coming to the specimen so strangely
acquired the professor uttered an ex-
clamation.
"How did you come by that?" he
asked, with manifest show of inter-
est. She told him as we'll as could be.
'It is strange" said the professor.
"That is the second specimen of that
variety that I have seen. The only
other one that know of is preserved
in the British museum and was found
at a seldom-visited point in the In
dian ocean" Then the young woman
remembered her dream.

SMOKE ON THE GREAT LAKES
The Disasters That Followed Drift
ing Clouds from Burning Cana
dian Forests.

The government has just issued the
Meteorological Chart for the Great
Lakes" for 1901. In summarizing the
conditions that prevailed in the lakes
for the past year the report tells of
the dense smoke from Canadian for
est fires near Georgian bay that
drifted over the eastern end of Lake
Superior on September 6 last, and
under the influence of brisk north
east winds overspread Lakes Michi-
gan, Huron and Erie on the following
day.
A great fire had been raging in the
Canadian forests to the east of Lake
Huron. The smoky condition of the
upper air had been observed for sew
eral days as far away as Chicago.
When the wind shifted to the north
east on September the air over a
large part of the lakes became filled
to an unusual degree with dust and
smoke. The air became so thick that
range lights and other channel marks
were for the time completely OBJ
scured, the brisk winds raising sim
ultaneously quite heavy sea. AS
result of this obstruction of the
lights, the high wind and the waves,
nine vessels were stranded off Fort
Gratiot light, at the extreme south
ern end of Lake Huron, between
seven p. m. and midnight.
The cloud of smoke was swept
away by the next morning, but it had
in the meantime as to delay naviga-
ton for some hours on September
g. Many other disasters were caused
by the smoke fog in various parts of
the lakes, greater loss resulting than
was ever known before to be caused
by smoke in these regions.

was the St. Paul high school girls first
match game. They came to the contest
held in the Y. M. c. A. gymnasium
confident Of victory and nattily attired in
dark blue bloomers and dark blue sweat
ers. The Minneapolis girls entered the
game buoyed up by the confidence that
three years of experience at playing
basket ball gives. Clad in blue bloom
ers and white sweaters, with a big NJ
worked in the front they looked almost
as picturesque as the Sanity City dam
sells. And they played better. This was
apparent from the very beginning
Louise Ohage captained the St Paul team
and she had to assist her ursula PringIe,
Minnie Boyer, Nellie Hyde and Lillian
GoodnoW. The umpires were Harry
Wambig and Louis Sicles; and the referee
was J. Bunnen. Miss Austin who has
trained the st. Paul team, was also pres
ent. The game was witnessed by a large
crowd of spectators, including big dele
cations from the different high schools in
st. Paul and Minneapolis. Each high
school delegation naturally, had brought
along with it it's pet yell, and the teams
were loudly encouraged throughout the
game.
Capt. Ohage proved herself clever lit
tie tactician and did her best to lead
her team to victory. but from the begin
ming the Minneapolis team proved itself
the heavier of the two. The teams
played evenly at the ends of the hail. but
the ST. Paul team failed every time in
getting the ball into the basket. Two
tffteen-minute halves were played. The
score at the end of the first half was 10
to O. In the second half the st. Paul
girls did a little better, with the result
that the North Side girls only made 8
additional points, leaving the score at the
conclusion of the game, Is to 0. In the
second half Gladys Barclay was substi-
tuted for Nellie Hyde, who played in the
first half and the team was somewhat
strengthened by the change
Considering the fact that it was the
first match team for the ST. Paul girls
the game was entirely satisfactory and it
is confidently expected that the next
match game will result in a victory.
