slightly curved and standing well out from
the sides of the head much like those of our

Is as imposing in appearance as the timid
bisons of either Europe or America, all OF
which, by the way, are sharing the fate OF
the American bison, being practically ex-
tinct. The famous auerochs of early Euro
pean history and the equally mighty wisents
were both bisons. The great herd Of wisents
in the forest OF Bialowieza in Lithuania
which numbered 500 In 1895 has now been
reduced to very small lot. Both the wis
ent and the aueroch specimens that still
exist in Europe are more or less crossed
with other cattle; IL is likely that not a
single perfectly pure specimen of these
mighty bisons survives today.

The military branch of the knights of
Pythas has suffered a severe loss in the
death at indianapolis Thursday OF this
week of Maj Gen. James r. Carnahan..
For more than twenty years he has been
the comma nder-in- chief of the Uniform
Rank Of the order. and has been regarded
as one of the most valuable and efficient OF
the officials Of the fraternity. Gen. Carna-
han had many intimate friends in Wash
ington. where he was a frequent visitor,
and his loss IS deeply lamented, partic-
ularly by Col. Harry Coggins, who has
long commanded the District regiment of
the Uniform Rank, and his associate Off
GERS. Gen. Carnahan had been an officer
in the Union army, and had been promi-
nent in Pythian affairs for many years.
He was comparatively a young man to
have had so long and valuable an expe-
rience in national and fraternal affairs His
funeral takes place today at Indianapolis,
and will be in charge of the order he served
so long and faithfully. He was sixty-three
years old. He entered the Union army at
the outbreak of the civil war as private,
under Gen. Lewis Wallace, and rose to be
staff officer. He was grand chancellor X.
Of p. of Indiana in $780, and had been at
the head of the Grand Army of that state.
In addition to being an excellent military
authority, he was a graceful public speaker
and active in state affairs. He is survived
by Mrs. Carnahan and three daughters. all
of whom have many Washington friends.
Gen. Carnahan will be much missed at
the approaching gathering of Pythians in
Detroit, for he was exceedingly active in
all branches of the fraternity. At the
meeting of the Supreme Lodge in that
city In 1900 he rode at the head of 1900

Dreams May Cause Death.
rom the Chicago Tribune.

From the Chicago Tribune.
People have actually been killed by
dreams. Most persons have suffered from
those terrible nightmare visions In which
the victim Is pursued by an assassin with
appraised knife, or is trembling on the edge
of fearful precipice or is in some other
imminent danger of a sudden and terrible
death. These dreams are common enough
and nearly always the sufferer awakes
thankful and happy at his escape. But
sometimes he doesn't awake. Sometimes
the knife falls or the sleeper In his halu-
cinations plunges down the precipice These
are the dreams that kill.
In cases where dreams kill there Is
sort of combined action between the dream
and the disease through which death is
accomplished. In the first place the dream
Is usually the product of the disease. A
person may have heart disease, which never
asserts itself or allows the victim I'm any
way to know of its presence until the fact
Is disclosed in a frightful dream. More
over, terrifying dreams are often the first
uuent recurrence of these dreams, dealing
repeated shocks to the nervous system, ag-
gravates the disease until the heart is so
weak that one more shock is sufficient to
cause death.
If a person has bad dreams It does not
necessarily follow. however, that he has
heart disease. Dreams indicating heart
disease are usually of a terrifying nature
and relate to death. On awakening the
sufferer will notice a violent heart palpi-
tation. Chronic pericarditis is always pre-
coded by horrible dreams. such as that OF
being thrown into lake of fire or being
crushed in a railroad wreck or burned by
volcanic eruption
The approach of insanity may also be re-
'yealed by unpleasant dreams, or insanity
may be FASTENED by such dreams There
are many cases where person has been
driven insane by dream.
