Sag Harbor, L. l., Feb. 16.-Princi-

1880 salary was insufficient, learned
recently that he was paid $50 a year
less than the janitor, John Mcmahon
He presented the facts to the Board
of Education and had his salary rails
ed to a figure beyond that which the
most aspiring country school janitoI
is likely to reach. The principals
rufiled feelings were soothed by the
raise. He will now draw $1,000.

Lord Brousham's Dream.

Lord Drougham was one Of the most
Stubborn believers in the common
sc3se" explanation of ghostly appear
anccs as dreams. At Edinburgh uni
yersity he and an intimate friend drew
up on agreement written with their
blood that whichever of them died first
should appear to the survivor Years
passed, the friend was In India. and
Brougham had almost forgotten his
existence. Arriving late one night at
an inn In Sweden. Brougham had hot
bath, and was going to get out OF it
when he locked toward the chair on
which he had left his clothes and saw
his friend sitting on it. Brougham
seems then to have tainted. On get
ting home he received a letter an
nouncing that the other had died In
India at the very time. Yet this Incl
dent, which most people would put
down to telepathy. at least was dis.
missed by Brougham as a mere dream
and pure coincidence.
