DIED AS HE SAID.

Did James Brown Have remonition OF
His Death.
eff you are going to have any Fourth
of July celebration this year" said
James William Brown of Liberty one
day, "you had better get it over by
Saturday night because / am going to
die Oh the Fourth, and you will not
care to hear any tire-crackers until l
am under the ground.
On the morning of July 18th Mr.. Brown,
who was 81 last May, MIXED his two
cows and ate his breakfast. Soon after
8 O'Clock he walked across the lawn
and sat down in a summer pavilion,
where he listened to the boys, who
were making loud noise in the village
mile away.
When his daughter came out to call
him to dinner he was seated in his arm
chair with his elbow propped against
the rail of the summer house. His
eyes were closed and his face was very
pale. The family physician said he
had been dead two hours.
Mr.. Brown is the fourth member of
his family who has died on July 4th.
His son, William James Brown, was
shot dead on the battlefield of Gettys-
lieutenant in the 9th Maine Infantry.
His father, James William Brown,
died at the family home in Liberty
July 4, 1871, as the result of grief over
the death of his old commander, Presi-
dent William Henry Harrison.
The grandfather of the man who has
just died was revolutionary soldier,
who served in Massachusetts COM
pany at Bunker Hill and was with
Washington during the campaign at
Valley Forge. His name was James
William Brown and he died while at
tending a celebration held at Castine
on July 4, 1916.
The English fleet had lately quit the
harbor and the war of 1912 was at an
end. In honor of this event the people
of Eastern Maine had invited all the
survivors of the Revolutionary war to
meet at old Fort Bagaduce and cele-
brate the second triumph of American
arms over the forces of Great Britain.
Mr.. Brown crossed PenobscOt bay in
small schooner during heavy show
er which wet his garments and caused
him to take violent cold He died on
the forenoon of July 18th, just as the
procession was forming to march to
the fort.
The first member of the family to
come to America was William James
Brown, who arrived in Nova Scotia in
! 1146. and who was with Gen. Wolfe
when Quebec was assaulted in Septem-
Der, 1859. At the close of the war he
came to the province of Maine and took
up wild land in Liberty.
The Oldest son of the family has been
named James William or William
James ever since the days when James
Ii and William, Prince of Orange, con-
tended for the crown of England. 1t
was customary among the country peo-
pie in those days to name their sons for
the ruling king. and as the early
Browns did not know which king was
going to win, they determined to be on
the safe side and named their son for
both of the claimants.

are many men who will work hard all
day without complaint, but when they
have to attend to little things for an
hour they become disguised and quit.
There are many little things in the

it is large business and it takes a

Electricity Among the Japanese.
The japanese understood electricity
as an attractive force, of which they
were very secret The Greeks and Ro-

net as an attractive force known tC
modern science as an electrical attrac-

the Chinese. They are supposed to be
ignorant of its popularity. though in
their secret records there are mentions
of sacred forces which none but God
knew and must not be tempered with
by man.

 The beef-eater got red in the face and said: Begging your pardon, don't you know, but hI was not ere at the time. This 'istory was made six 'un- dred years ago."
 Dad begged the mans pardon and told him he supposed the boys were murdered a year or two ago, and he gave the beef-eater a dollar. and he was so gratified I think he would have had q murder committed for dad right there and then if dad had insisted on it.
 You feel in going through the tower like you was in an American slaughter house. for 1t was here that kings and queens were beheaded by the dozen. They showed us axes that were used to behead people. and blocks that the heads of the victims were laid on, and the places where the heads fell on the floor It seemed that in olden times when a king or a queen got too gay, the anti-kings of queens would go to
