A DYING GIRLS VISION.
The DenthpIace of Her Father Was
Revealed.


An unusually interesting instance of
second sight" is reported from Ac-
crington, Lancashire. A young woman
on her deathbed not only announced
her fathers death, but described the
spot where his body lay, the fact of her
fathers death not being known to any
body at the time. The man in ques-
ton was Isaac Marsden, SO years old,
who lived in Stevenson street, Accring-
ton. His daughter, % years old. had
been wasting away with consumption
for months.
About a week ago Mr.. Marsden dis
appeared from home under mysterious
circumstancs-that is, no reason was
known for his going away and nothing
could be learned of his whereabouts.
Miss Marsden was deeply distressed
by this event. On Saturday she told
those who were at her bedside that she
had seen her fathers form.
"You will find his body in the water
at Aspen bridge, Oswaldtwistle," she
said.
About an hour later Miss Marsden
died. Mr. Marsden's body was found in
the canal at the spot named by his
daughter.-London Daily Mail.

Burnham in Telluride, and brought to
Colorado. He was placed in Jail and
a strong guard thrown around the Jail
to prevent what was alleged to be an
attempt to rescue him.
Three weeks later the evidence did
not appear to be SO strong and he was
released on $4,000 bond. His case
dragged along until at this term of
court the prosecuting attorney an
