SAVED BY DREAM.
Wife OF the Late bishop whippls HAS
. strange Vision. which Is
Verified

The late Bishop Whipple, apostle
to the Indians" told friend the fol-
lowing personal experience few
weeks before his death;
The bishops first wife believed In
dreams. She seldom dreamed. but
when she did the dream came true.
On Sunday morning In October, at
Fairbault, many yenrs ago shearoused
the bishop and told him that her son,
the bishops stepson, who wns then In
New Mexico, was dying. She had seen
him In dream, and there could be
no mistake about H. She described
him ns he lay on hard bed In mis-
cradle adobe hut and declared that
HIS serious condition was due TO In
attention. She urged the bishop 10
proceed without delay to New Mexico
and rescue the boy.
4 few hours later Bishop Wblpple
obedient to his wife's wishes, was fly

take him. lie followed directions 10

side Just In time. The scene was just
as Mrs. Whipple had described IL.
II was apparent that the boy could
scarcely survive another day In sucl
surroundings, Bishop Whipple hat
left in such u hurry that he had neg

why NOT THE BoYs? ?

The officers Of an Ohio orphan asylum
recently stated that they had no trouble
to find good homes for the orphan girls
in their charge, but that 1t was i'm
possible to find homes for all OF the
boys. Only the exceptionally hand
some or bright boy is desired for
adoption. As one OF the officers
concisely stated it. "Boys are not
appreciated"
Isn't this true in city, town and
countryP Our girls are going to school
and college, even when their parents are
far from wealthy. But the brothers Of
more than two-thirds of these girls are
doing jobs around town, or working for
day wages. True, they earn something
in this way for themselves or their
parents. But II the good Of the boys
were to be consulted, the parents ought
rather to have lived on bread and water,
and worn patches three deep. than to
handicap their sons, with lack OF a
boou ouuChiou. why nuouihh DoJe
have q chance TO rise In the world as
well as girls7
Mothers watch carefully after their
small daughters. They let them
associate with no rough or foul-mouthed
girls. Isn't it true that many Of these
same mothers allow their young sons to
play by the hour with boys that swear
and use filthy words, or boys that are
lazy, or even incipient thieves and
drunkards2
Isn't 1t true that fathers stand by and
hear without protest the obscene tales
Of other men, tales told before their half
grown lads2 Had 1t been the boys
sisters that were present, these same
fathers would have thrashed the nara
tors soundly for trying to besmirch a

innocence does not count with them.
Isn't II a fact, that II some OF the
young ladies OF our acquaintance should
be enticed into saloon, and there
made drunk, that our indignation would
wax 30 great that all good men and
women would combine against the
saloon, and "smoke 1t out" by righteous
wrath? No one thinks that 1t makes
much difference when it is our young
/ men.
a Why not protect the boy? Isn't he
: worth saving as well as the girl? Is a
lazy man a more ediiying sight than a
lazy woman2 Is an oath in a mans

New York. Dec. 1.-Jnimportant
changes were recorded in cotton dur
ing the early session. The absence of
much business was due to the pending
bureau report on Wednesday. Very
low figures are looked for and even the
bear element are prepared for such
a small estimate that 100000 or more
must be added as allowance for exag-
gerated information from the parties
reporting to the government. While
business is small the underlying feel
ing is one of confidence. Estimates are
running so closely in the neighborhood
of 100000 that the trade is not apt
to be deceived in the long run, espe-
cially since the movement has been
letting up, and there are no indications
of fresh big movement while the to-
tai for three months ending yesterday
has been some 100000 over last year.
The November movement shows a de-
crease of 100000 from last year, and
