 Neither do T." earnestly. What a fool I'd be to take another 2000-mile hike on such a ghostly tip!"
 This was Daye's dream: He was out in the red gulches again, banning in the hot sun for gold. Toward sundown of a wearisome, unfruitful day he threw aside his tools disgustedly and started up the ravine. As he proceeded the bluffs became high and steep There was more verdue in the valley than he had ever seen in the west. Here and there were cottonwood and elm trees. By and by he encountered a clear spring bubbling from the foot of d shaggy bluff, and looking up he saw. as if projecting from burying ground, an immense coffin. Of course, it was only a big rock, resembling a coffin, but some one came along just at that time and said it was The Devils Cof- fin," and that underneath 1t was an i'm mense ledge rich in gold. The place seemed strangely familiar to Dave, though he could not recall having been there in his mining days Certainly there were no cottonwoods and elms near where he had worked In the far west.
 That night while sitting around the stove in the general store at Pleasant Hill, Dave, with some elaboration, told of his vision, and then explained that he took no stock in dreams About him were the oldest inhabitant Joshua Jen- hns; the storekeeper, Bill Moss. and the village doctor, Isaac Tatum. They listened gravely to the dream story and then Joshua knocked the ashes out of his pipe into the woodbox and stroked his gray beard. He said he was not so certain that dreams were without signfi- canoe. This matter of dreaming was mysterious, and he had never yet found a man who could explain to his satisfac- ton how it come that immediately fol- lightning had killed one of the best mules he had on his place.
 Dr. Tatum said that dreams were im- pressions from the subconscious mind, which was "a sort of reservoir to be filled unconsciously with facts growing out of an association of circumstances"
 Bill Moss, the storekeeper, said that kind of reasoning sounded good to him, and for Dave to pass by such an obvious warning for his own good was not living up to the dictates of good sense.
 Dave went home troubled. He could not sleep to do any good, and in the morning when he referred to his dream Nellie saw with heartsick terror that 1t had taken hold of him. So she laid aside all other duties and tried to reason

show Martins bias and interest In
the case, and his active partisanship
therein on behalf OF the defendant,
The state asked him on cross-ex-
animation II he had not requested
the reporter to go 10 Fishers offlce

Bride cites a point in law which rem
ders this challenge worthless; Acts

An error Is alleged by counsel for
the defendant in the permitting OF
the judge sitting in the case and a
Juror being called as witnesses
which Justice Mcbride deals with
pcremptorily During the trial the
counsel for the defendant called
Judge Bronaugh TO the stand TO tes-
tify and then called n juror from
the box 10 give testimony. Justice
Mcbride, In giving his opinion re-
gardlng This matter, says: Both

such trifling and inconsequential
matters as 10 leave the impression

their client, were seeking TO get an
error into the record with a view

Justice Mcbride refers 10 many

being the sase- OF the state vs.. An

we have thus examined every
contention Of counsel, and We find no
reason why new trial should be

Ia conclusion. Justice Mcbride says
thal the granting or refusing OF a

cept for an abuse of that discretion,

The next assignment OF error re-
lates 20 the ruling OF the courr per-
mitting the introduction OF the rec
ord OF ceiain disbarment proceedings

In referring 20 this exception Justice
Mcbride cites Wharton on Homicide,
which says IN part, "All evidence of
whatsoever nature, tending 10 throw
light upon relations existing between
he deceased and accused. and the
feeling between them, Is competent" "
