IT HAPPENS AS DREAMED
Thought She Fell From High Build
ing and Is Found Asleep
in an AWnjnq

MARION, Ind, Sept. 15.-Mrs. Clara
Bradford, 35 years old, was found last
night asleep in an awning in front OIL
Eshelman & Derr's grocery in East
Third street, by Harry Mcclellan and
George Patterson, who We're passing
by. The woman was apparently un-
conscious and the police were sum-
moned. After trying to remove Mrs.
Bradford by means of stepladder,
without success, it was found necessary
to go upstairs to her room, force open
the door and lift her up through the
window.
Mrs. Bradford was not aroused until
carried back into her room. She said
she did not know how she got out OF
her window into the awning, but said
she dreamed of falling from high
building. Apparently she was unin-
iured by her fall, but since she was suf-
fering from illness she was taken in
an ambulance to the Marion hospital,
where she is reported improving. Mrs.
Bradford came TO this city recently.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Sept. IL
treat excitement prevailed in the
neighborhood of they old ]. r. ard K.
W. railroad bridge when J. B. Mills.
Z. N. Lee and an old negro named
Hammond, assisted by Others, got
within two feet of the buried treasure
which they have been working hard
TO unearth for several weeks
with donkey engine equipped with
pumps and several men laboring with
shoVels, Mills, Lee and Hammond have
peen working for many weeks in
search of the buried treasure. A deptb
OF about fifteen feet has been reached
and with sounding rod the treasure
chest can be felt
1t appears to be an iron chest. about
TWO by three feet, and the instigators
OF the move to secure this box are
greatly encouraged and hope to un-
earth it within few days.
From what can be learned of this
buried treasure the old darkey. Ham
mond, has had in his possession for
many years a chart. Several weeks
ago he showed this chart to Lee and
MlllS and they went into partnership
to secure the treasure
The history of the chart is unknown
at present, as Hammond cannot be
found to tell the story or exhibit the
chart. At any rate the work still goes
on with the hope of some day unearth-
ing this wonderful chest of Spanish
gold, or, whatever the chest may con-
| tain.
The hole continues to ill with water
ana mud and the men are having much
difficulty in their work. The scene OF
this active search for gold is on the
old Moody estate, and it has been
runlored that the agent of the prop.
erty has ordered the work stopped.
