STOP
WHEN DOWN
WAS KILLED:

Marlboro, Jan. 14.-Wenlock Down ot %
might make an interesting addition TO
the accumulative evidence which has
been placed in possession OF the Psychical
Research society.
A little more than a week ago brother
Of Mr.. Down was killed in Providence by
a fall from freight train upon which he
was regularly employed.
The accident happened in the evening
at three minutes past Z. and just at that
minute in the house OF the brother Lying
here. there stopped ticking three clocks
and a watch.
Mr.. Down declares that there is no
doubt whatever about the circumstance
OF tho stopping Of the tmepieces, and
says that for the fact he has no ex-
PLANTATION. but ne regards the ceasing TO
run OF the tellers OF time at the very
second almost of the death OF his brother
as a very singular coincidence.
There is another interesting feature in
connection with the experiences or Mr.
Down about that time. on the morning
OF the day of the fatality he went into
a local clothing store to purchase pair
OF gloves. He was SHOWN seNeral pairs,
none Of which seemed TO suit him.
Finally pair of black gloves was shown
him. He declined at first 10 consider them
a a possible purchase. and remarked TO
the salesman that II he should buy that
particular pair OF gloves there would be
a death in his family within a week lie
bought the gloves. however, and says that
at the moment he felt that it was fore
boding OF evil.
The next morning he received word
that his brother had been killed the night
before. and then there was given serious
considera ton 10 the singular fact OF tho
timepieees stopping.
This led to careful inquiries rs to the
time his brother was killed, and az near
as IL could be determined IL was the time
at which tho clocks and watch ceased
their ticking.
Mr.. Down Is firm In his belief that there
was some unseen. and to him unknown
intelligence, which conveyed 10 him, so
far as IL was able 10 do so. the fact of
his brothers death. but the philosophy
which can explain the strange circum-
stances he knows nothing about
