SECOND SIGHT.
An Apparition That Was Messenger
az Death,

An Apparition That was Mossen9ef
Of Death.
The third Lord Templetown used to
tell of an extraordinary and really au-
thentic case Of second sight. His
brother. Henry Upton. the second Wis
count. was with his regiment abroad
when he and several brother officers
saw an old friend wearing trousers
and shirt only pass through the mess
room to another room from which
there was no outlet. They followed
and saw nobody, and the sentry per-
sisted that no person had entered.
Henry Upton wrote to his brother,
afterward third viscount, to request
him to go to their friends lodgings In
London and find out what he was do
ing at such and such an hour on a GER
tain day. The brother in London COM
piled and found that their friend had
died. but not on the day he had been
seen abroad.
Later the landlady was asked on
oath as to the date and hour OF death
and whether he had died In white
shirt with blue check. After some
demur she confessed that her ledger
did not die when she first stated. but
on the day when his friends had seen
him pass through the mess room.
1t seems the date of demise had
been falsined on account Of his pen
sion. which was almost all his family
had to depend upon. And be died In
white shirt with blue check, his
landIady having lent one Of her hus
bands to him on the morning OF his
death. Court Journal.

Of the numerous suicides which mark
vermont's weekly history, none seems
more unfortunate than that Of the Rut-

failed to have his fondness reciproeated.

month.
The insurgents" claim that some
of the head officers are in league
with the "old line" insurance COM

tempting to put the fraternal organ
izations out Of business. According
to some Of the delegates the contem-
plated raise in the rates would mean
the end of the Woodmen order

the large amount Of candy that will
be sold by jobbers and retailers
throughout the county.
All of the stores have laid in large
supplies and the varieties will rival
that Of other seasons. There are all
kinds, from the cheapest mixtures to
the delicious chocolates. Many of the
expensive candles are packed in fancy
boxes of various kinds and designs,
holding from a pound TO several
pounds. While $4,000 will be spent
by Wilmingtonians about as much
more will be sold by manufacturers
and jObbing houses to retailers and
dealers in rural sections of this and

Is sold to local churches and different
