VISION GUIDED TO
MAN SHE ACCUSES
Widow Finds Mining Engi-
neer in Hotel and Seeing
Him in Her Dreams.

CHICAGO, Nov. IA dream, il
which Mrs. w. A. Lotus, widow
419 f. 45th street, saw II. l.. Berkeley
mining promoter, whom she claims
swfndled her out OF 81 900, walking il
the lobby of the Auditorium hote
caused her to go to the hotel.
The first person She. met in the lob
by was Berkey, who has been missing
for two years. since he disappeared
from the Rawhide. New, mining
camps.
"You are arrested was Mrs. LOT
tus' greeting.
Let us settle our differences" Der
key protested.
mo. we'll settle them at the Har
rison street police station" the wo
man declared, grabbing him by the
coat sleeves.
Berkey accompanied her to the pc
lice station without offering resist
ance. Mrs. LOTUS turned her pris
Oner over to the police and after her
story he was booked on a charge OF
obtaining money by means of a conf
dence game.
Mrs. Lotus told the police that she
had a dream in which she saw Ber
key register at the hotel and later
walk about the lobby.
The mining promoter. who claims
to be secretary and treasurer of the
Nexada Bond Il Leasing company, OF
Rawhide, New. says he has known
Mrs. Lotus for twenty years. He ad
mitted having taken $1,000 from her
declaring he sold her the stock to that
amount.
Mrs. Lotus says she invested $1,000
two years ago in the leasing company
on the promise that her son William
would be given position as cashier.
The following week, she declares,
Berkey disappeared. and, although de-
tectives searched for him. he could
not be found. Trace was lost at FIRES
no. Cal.
Mrs. LOTUS obtained a warrant in
the Hyde Park police court for his ar
rest.
In telling of her dream. Mrs. Lotus
said:
THE dream seemed so real that
when I awakened | could hardly be-
lieve for a time that ! had been
asleep. The whole thing seemed to
have taken place.
when | went to the hotel the same
scene met my eyes--Berkey pacing
the lobby and numerous men and wo.
men seated about.

he acted just as cody as he had acted
in the dream. 1t is hard to believe
that / really dreamed the entire in
cident. but that is solely the manner
In which l apprehended him"
Berkey said he has money and
would pay Mrs. Lotus. He declared
his transaction with her was square
and the mines a good investment. He
admitted having promised her son a
position with the company, but said
he did not fulfill it because he learn

| is the gentleman anonymous II
he great unknown"
! This was said once by somebody
and serves as a quotation in the pre-
face Of a famous novel.
1t was, however. in gentle irony.
/ And had reference to custom ir
the literary world OF appearing anc
sailing under nom de guerre, or wha'
is oftener called nom de plume, al
though the latter is illegitimate.
Some literary incogntos are mysti
| flying and some are not. And some
have been so associated with per
sonality as to obscure the actual indi
vidual nomenclature as in the case OF
Mark Twain.
And there are instances Of anonymi
ty like that maintained by the author
of the famous "Junius Letters and OF
the novel 1.-The Bread Winners
whose real sources never have been
determined.
This sort of masquerading, however
is harmless enough and, frequently
deceives no one.
But there is another form OF anony
nifty that is practiced by the Uncou
and other human incunabula, which IL
not particularly harmful save to the
person indulging in this special form
of degeneracy-b is so dcspicable as
to place it's devOtees outside the pale
That is the anonymous letter.
The anonymous letter is the last
resort Of the sneak, the coward, the
cad and the pOltrOOn.
A man may be thief and yet be
gentleman. He may run off with an
other mans wife and still be gen
tleman. He may even kill another
man and remain a gentleman lie
may lie, cheat, browbeat, bullyrag
rob, and do general devastation and
still be given the benefit of the doubt
But the man who writes an anOny-
nous letter is fit for nothing but outer
darkness and the eternal contempt
Of decent and even indecent people.
If you want to square things, II
you've got a grievance that you think
needs redressing or at least exploiting,
if you want to lambast somebody and
call them names, if you feel very sure
you are right about something about
which you think somebody else is
wholly wrong. and you feel disagree
able and want to tell them SO, if you
want to denounce someone for hold
ing different religious, social or po-
litical views, if you want, i'll short. to
be nasty and hateful and mean, why
don't you jump into the arena, slap
your man in the face and fight it out
in the open.
A man who walks up and hits anoth-
er man in daylight and does or. does
not preface his pugilistic outbreak
with any reasons for SO doing may
command the respect of the disinter-
ested onlooker.

There is a phase of the telephone
anonymity that is more annoying than

ment who think it is funny to call up
people they don't know and say al

then room full of people adjacent
to the telephoner laughs uproariously.
This is subject for police investi-
cation.
The truth is that as wonderful
scientifically as is the telephone and
as convenient and indispensable as it
is to social and business intercourse,
it is the source of much annoyance
and evaporation through it's opera
