DREAM SPOILED HIS TRIP.
I1s Wife Cried Out in Her Sleep and
the NeighbOrs Thought He
Was Beating Her.

ga dream of my wife spoiled my last
foreign trip, put an end to some an
eestral and antiquarian researches
which l had started, and gave me the
reputation of a cruel and vicious hus-
band among lot of people with whom
l was anxious to stand well" observed
Mr.. Van Duser, sadly, relates the New
York Times. And the havoc wrought
by the dream wasn't in the least due
to the fact that any of the parties con-
cerned were superstitious. 1t was just
a case of hard luck and mutual misun-
derstanding.
Both my wife's people and my own
originally came from Holland, and for
years we had been intending to look
the subject up. So the last time we
crossed, having little time on our
hands, we decided to take run over
to Holland. A couple of days later
found us in one of those old-fashioned,
spotless Dutch hotels. We couldn't
understand much of what the people
about the hotel said, and they couldn't
hold any lengthy conversations with
us. But they were cordial and pleas
ant, and we looked forward to having
good time, even if we didn't accom-
plish much in the line of ancestral re-
search.
"Of course the surroundings were a
little strange, and l suppose that was
the cause of the trouble. For about
midnight [ was awakened by a scream
from my wife. Then another and
third. 1t was only case of nightmare,
but bad one, and it took some little
time to get her thoroughly awake.
by the time she was awake the
proprietor and half the servants of the
hotel were at the door. I opened it
bit and tried to explain matters. My
explanation didn't work. Instead the
landlord made an indignant remon-
STRANGE, which, as it was half Dutch
and half German, didn't enlighten me
much. Finally things quieted down a
bit and L went back to bed But the
next morning, when we came down to
breakfast, everybody cast indignant
glances at me and equally sympathetic
ones at my wife. 1t wasn't hard to find
out what the trouble was. They
thought my wife's screams had been
due to some brutality of mine, and evil
IDENTIFY looked upon me as burly wife
beater. My wife tried to explain mat
ters, but that didn't help much. Her
explanations, in the best German she
could muster up, were received with
smiles of polite incredulity-of course,
a wife would stand by her husband.
even if he is brute.
1T finally got so uncomfortable for
me in the hotel that left without hav-
ng accomplished anything in the way
Of investigation of our family record.

An Eng1ishman,s Prophecx

The late Sir Walter Desant in his his
tory of London quotes the following
remarkable prophecy made by an Eng
lishman, Colonel George Hanger ir
1898. SHOULD 1 live" he wrote, 'to q
good old age l am confident that shall
hear of the northern and southern pow
ers Of America waging war with each
other, when one party will solicit as
slstance from France, the other from
Great Britain.
ut will then depend on the Judgment
of those men who at that period may
be at the head of the French and Brit
ish councils whether or not they will
interfere in American disputes. In my
humble opinion it would be better fol
both countries to let them settle the
matter among themselves.
Il will be so bold as to offer another
opinion. We should give up Canada
and Nova Scotia to the Americans pro
vided we could make this sacrifice the
foundation of an alliance offensive and
defensive with the United States. Ther
we never should be obliged to send the
prime of the British army to die in the
West India islands.

shall live to see the day when an ALI
ance, offensive and defensive, will be

The evening performance was nearly

Reviewing the Sermon.

The theological reporter being out OF
the city, the sporting editor was sent
to church with instructions to care
fully review the sermon that was to
be preached by an eminent visiting di.
vine. The sporting editor was up
against hard proposition, but he pro-
ceeded to make good as follows:
'The weather was perfect and the
grand stand and bleachers were
packed. The Rev. DIR. Blankety Blank
was in the box for the Unitarians, and
he certainly had everything in the

tically, but when he warmed up on

after it had been passed around,

casionally voice from the bleachers

ly hooked up throughout, putting some

HIGHEST WIND RECORD.
Held by Storm Signal Station North
of San Francisco on the
Pacific Coast.

Point Reyes, an important United
States weather bureau and storm sig
nal station, located on the California
coast some 35 miles north of San Fran
cisco, holds the worlds record for
high, continuous winds.
Last year Point Reyes captured this
honor from the weather stations of
the earth, and again the month of May
has gone several notches higher on the
meteorological scale, says Scientific
American,
On May IS, 1902, the wind at Point
Reyes attained a velocity of 1O2 miles
an hour, and, for several minutes, was
rushing along at the furious rate of
120 miles per hour.
A fearful gale lasted for three whole
days, and at one time the winds in n
playful mood ripped the cups from the
thermometer. The number of miles
recorded during the 70 consecutive
hours was 4,7O1, which would be equiv
alent to nearly one-ffth the distance
around the earth in three days.
This year on May IA the winds COM
menced to blow again with the great
est velocity. For four days the veloc-
Ity registered averaged more than
60 miles an hour. For nine days the
average velocity was SO miles an hour.
The total number of miles recorded on
the thermometer was 1929 miles.
This is the highest velocity of wind
for the time on record in the world.
These automatically marked records
will be photographed by Prof McAdie,
who is in charge of the main weather
bureau office in San Francisco, and
sent to Washington.

about 200 persons sat down to dinner
