NEENAH, Wis, April 2S.-[Special.l
After having been raving maniac for
over a month, Mrs. Al Schutzendorf of
Oshkosh, Wis, is now practically cured,
because she was told that Hell was
frozen over" and was no more to be
feared. The woman was of an intensely
religious bent, an evangelist was hold
ing revivals in Oshkosh some time ago,
she used to get worked up into frenzy
of excitement.
Once she rose from her seat and cried
out: MY boys are going to hell. My
boys are going to hell
The next day she was sent to the
northern asylum. One day recently: the
attending physician, DIR. Gordon, said to
her: Your boys will not go to hell. Why,
my dear woman, didn't you know that
hell was frozen over fifteen years ago?'
Mrs. Schutzendorf frightened up at
hearing such pleasant news, and since
that day she mas been growing better.
She will leave the hospital shortly.

IS PASSING DEATH DAY.
Partially Fulfilled Prophecy Drives Man
Crazy-Believes He Will
Die Today.

KENOSHA, Wis, April 28.-[spe-
cial. l-Nels Christensen, Dane, who
had been waiting for death in the coun-
ty Jail here in the fulfllment of a pro-
phecy made in Denmark a year ago was
adjudged insane in the Kenosha county
court at an early hour this morning by
Judge Slosson, and ordered to be com
mitted to an asylum at Mendoza. 1t is
claimed by the men guarding him during
the night that Christensen attempted to
commit suicide. Christensen had been
told that he would be arrested on April
% and die two days later and that
when he went to the Jail he would find
a strange trio of a one-legged man,
Dane and a cross-eyed man. The pro-
phecy had a remarkable fulfllment to
the letter and as Christensen left the
jail he insisted to the officers that he
would die before the day was over. The
physicians claim that he is not near
death but that his nervous system is
wrecked from brooding over the story
told by the fortune teller. Christensen
was today taken to Mendoza.

Seven Lean Years.

Brugsch Bey, the Psychologist, says
that it is no longer difficult to understand
the origin of the "seven lean years mar
rative in the book of Genesis. The hler-
oglyphic inscriptions translated by him
show that 1900 years before the Chris
tan era the Nile for seven consecutive
years did not overflow and famine, pest,
ience and misery followed. 1--WE know" "
says he, "that the date of the seven years
of fruitlessness mentioned in Genesis
was 100 B. c., and thus what has been
looked upon as a fancy has through these
hieroglyphics become matter Of history.
The failure of the Nile to overflow, the
whitening of the vegetation, the lands DE-
void of crops, famine and the consequent
scourges are all depicted in the, pictures
which the student has been able to de-
cipher"

had been caught coming out of burn

told the police belonged to the tenants.
After having been badly beaten by the
street crowds he was taken to the police
station and locked up on a charge of
burglary. But for the timely action Of
the firemen who had been called to the
