A FATEFUL DREAM.
| Death Came Precisely rs 1t Had Been
| ForetOld In Slumber.

Death Came Precisely rs 1t Had Been
Foretold In Slumber.
A strange family story is told in the
"Reminiscences of Mrs. Pickering" 1t
has to do with her sister Jane, mar
ried to Lord Andover, eldest son Of the
Earl of Suffolk:
"She Lady Andover) had always
been noted for having the most re-
markable dreams, and one morning she
awoke feeling nervous and uncomfort-
able having dreamed that Lord AndO-
yer had gone out shooting when there
was a battue and had been shot. This
made such an impression on her mind
that she entreated him not to shoot
that day, but to stay with her. which
he at once consented to do, and they
resumed their painting and reading.
But the day came out so fine and the
winter sun shOne so brightly that my
aunt, feeling she had been selfish, at
last begged him not to lose the day for
her sake, but to go out and join the
others, so he went After he had gone
she became so restless and uneasy that
she started to walk across the park to
the covert where they were shooting.
AS she crossed the park she observed
one of the grooms galloping hard to-
ward the house on her own favorite
horse, Baronet. Strange to say, no pre-
sentiment of evil seems at that mo-
ment to have struck her, and she only
remarked, How very angry Lord An
dover would be If he could see that
man riding my horse in such way"
He was riding to the house with the
news that Lord Andover had been shot
dead by one of the keepers"

Authorship of Ancient Literature.

In the earliest examples we possess
Of ancient literature we are not allowed
even glimpse of the Municipalities OF
their authors. The works themselves,
if they had been priced because of the
wit, ingenuity, fertile fancy, brilliant
conceit or any other individual pecu-
liarity. mental or temperamental. of the
men who produced them would have
been preserved. In some cases, as in
that of the Iliad and Odyssey, the re-
puted authorship has been as obstinate
" questioned as that Of the fourth
gospel and several of the epistles. In
the very earliest literature the indi-
vidual was of no account in the matter
of authorship; he was only the collector
or editor Of spontaneous and unwritten
folk song and legend or, if he gave these
their final shape, was only joint author
with his race.-H. NJ. Alden in Harper 8
