PART DREAMS HAVE PLAYED
 IN CATCHING CRIMINALS.

Some of the strangest stories in the annals of crime are those which tell of the part dreams have played in the discovery of criminals. One spring day in 1880 a farm laborer, when passing a lonely mountain lake in Sutherland shire, saw in the waters dead body. which when rescued proved to be that of d weli.known peddler who had mys- terious1y vanished about menth ear Her. The body bore marks of violence, the pockets were empty, and 1t was clear that the poor fellew had been pru" tally murdered and robbed-but by whom? That was a mystery which for many a week completely defied elucida- ton.
 One night. however, Kenneth Fraser, A tailor's assistant, saw in a dream the cottage of a man named Hugh Macleod, and heard a voice say in Gaelic, The peddler's pack is lying in tho cairn Of stones in a hole near this house. He told the story of his aingu- lar dream to the authorities. who accompanied him to Macieod's house: and there, sure enough. beneath a heap of stones, the murdered mans property was found: Macleod was ar rested. confesed and was executed
 Another very remarkable story is told. of a- tragedy in Ireland One evening two strangers presented them selves at a wayside inn near Portland, and after taking refreshfneEat continued their tramp in the direction of Carrick- on~Suir. The incident was common place enough; but 1t led to startling developments, for in the wayfarers the Iandlady recognized two men of whom she had dreamed a very strange dream the night before. In her dream she had seen one of them kill the other with a towards blow from behind. rifie the pockets of the dead man. and stealthiIy bury him beneath hedge. So impressed was her husband when this dream was told to him that he made his way to the spot indicated and there discovered the body of the buried man. The assassin was pursued and arrested, and at the ensuing assizes was sentenced to death.
 There has seldom been more mys- terious crime than the murder of MT. Stockden, London victualler. great many years ago; and the mystery would have remained unsolved to this day had it not been for the interven- ton of A Mrs. Greenwood. who came forward with the statement that the murdered man had appeared to her in a dream and conducted her to a house in Thames Street. where one of his as- sassins was to be found; while in an-

 TAKES PLACE TOMORROW

 A Fine Display.

The opening of the large mems and boys wear store of Alex Rice will be- gin tomorrow and continue through the day. The magnificent new quarters or this popular house have been completed, the stock has just been adjusted and every appurtenance is in readiness for the forEal display.
 An abundance of flowers that have been contributed tQ the store for the opening, will be feature of the occa- sion Music will also be furnished. JAS an indication or the solid remem- brance that country traders have of Alex Rice's wear emporium, out-of- town firms and individuals have all ready sent in a lot of handsome tokens. These will be seen in the opening also.
 A unique feature of MT. Rice's great store which is expected to engage the eyes of visitors and customers is the composite arrangement of the first lffoor. By this is meant that the ground floor has been assigned ample space by the architects to carry retail portions

of all kinds of stock carried by the house. The customers are conven- iently served, therefore, without any upward travel in, the commodious structure. The other floors are occu- pied by the tobbing interests.
 The new store Is equipped with the most up-to-date cash-carrier system, .s fitted with twenty-five all-glass show cases and numerous clothing cabinet cases for the display of fine suits and overcoats.
 To demonstrate the rapid growth Of Alex Rice's furnishing store in the twenty-five years of his business his- tory in Montgomery, one has only to note the increase in the size or the quarter occupied at the two extremes of mans career. In 1SS0,. at the time of MT. Rice's first venture, he owned a store here covering floor space of only 500 square feet. The aggregate floor space of the new three-story store at 67 and 6S Court Square, meas ures 45,S40 square feet.

 Then the quarters of MT. Rice were on the old Belcher corner. a room twen- ty-five feet in length and twenty-five feet in breadth. This soon come to be known as Rice's corner. He later leased the store room occupied by H. T. Oppenheimer, which gave him a space measuring 20 by 45 feet.

trated with numerous drawings hy well known American artists, with cover. in four colors designed by the French artist, E. Lelong, this Holiday Num- Der" with it's hundred pages is artis- tically distinguished Its literature, however, is of exceptional; interest. ! Apart from the poeticai contributions by Thomas Bailey Aldrich. Bliss Carman and Clinton Scollard whose names. are a sufficient guarantee of delightful work. the contents present an array of writers prominent in their respective department of literary work. Sir Gill; bert Parker the wel1-known English novelist, has an important article on a question deeply touching the future re- lations between England and the United States. He entities his essay, The Meeting of the waters"
 The Hon. Andrew Montague. the Gov ernor of Virginia, contributes valu- able resume of '"rhe Year in Politics. pregnant in suggestive thoughts. Some very interesting and timely conclusions are drawn by Rear-Admiral Joseph B. Coghlan and Lieut.. Col. W. w. With erspoon respectively in their articles on The Year in the Navy and The Year in the Army" Both these gallant and able authorities find in the Russo Japanese War many lessons to be taken to heart by our own naval and military officers
 On the lighter side of literature the Baroness won Hutten has delightfully humorous tale in The Only Way Out" and Mrs. c. N. williamson's story, Her Ladyship of the Attic possesses it's own peculiar charm. TWO Women Grind ing at the Milr' is a strong story by Edna Kenton, The Year in Society" '"rhe Year in Literature" The Year in Art" The Year in Sport" are able essays by writers of authority in their respective subjects.
 A curiously interesting study Is that given by Richard Fechheimer in his es- say on "The New Blood and the Blue Blood" which deals with the efforts made by vari ous people to enter society successfully. The subject is treated somewhat personally and is yet soci-, alogical study of some importance A contribution in much lighter vein is palmist's reading of the characters of several society women and men from their hands.
 These are but the more special fea- lures in literary miscellany which touches all sides of our social and po- litical life with graceful, suggestive and humorous insight.
