about Colonel Johnson, the landlord Of
the City hotel in Holton. One of them
is this: A somewhat dudish travelling

case and showed the drummer his five
and ten-cent brands, but the dudish
drummer wasn't satisfied. Don't you

TRANCE LASTED LONG
SWEDISH WOMAN SPENT THIRTY.
TWO YEARS IN BED.
Awakened In Perfect Health and With
Complete Possession Of Her
Faculties, With No Memory
of Her SIeep.

There are many cases on record of
people remaining in sleep-like trance
for several years, these frances be-
ing often caused from injuries to the
head, but no one has had so long a
sleep as a woman named Caroline
Alison, who lives in the little island
of Okuo, of the coast of Sweden.
The sleeper Of Okuo was born In
1861; she was perfectly normal
child, and for the first IA years of
her life she was strong and healthy.
She did not go to work till just be-
fore her fourteenth birthday. One
day she came home complaining of
toothache and went to bed. Soon af-
terward she fell into a deep trance.
which lasted from 1875 until 1907, a
period of 80 years.
While in this state she did not
seem to see or hear, nor did she
show any trace of feeling, for though
her arms were pricked with pins,
needles and other sharp instruments
she was not once observed to vince.
Only once or twice did she seem to
wake from her lethargy. On one occa-
sion, In response to a cry from her
mother, she moved her lips as If to
try and speak. When her mother
died Caroline must have been con-
scious of the fact, for she burst into
tears, though there was no other
change in her condition. Two years
later, when her brother was drowned,
she also had fit of weeping For 80
years and more her only nourishment
consisted of two cupfuls of milk a
day.
After the death of her brother she
was left to the care of housekeeper,
and then gradual signs of awakening
intelligence began to dawn. Once she
was left alone for several hours with
food near her, and the food was seen
to have gradually disappeared. There
was no doubt that her trance had been
broken. A few months later she re-
gained consciousness, asking for her
mother She did not recognize her
brothers at all, for she only remem-
bered them as tiny boys Gradually
she regained possession of her facul-
ties, until at the age of forty-six, she
had completely recovered from her
trance, being in perfect health and
well and hearty in every way.
She only remembers her early life,
but nothing that happened during her
long illness. Her case has completely
mystified the doctors, who cannot ex-
plain it in any way.

Education In PHILIPPINES.

The consulting architect of Manila
has approved construction plans for
the Pace school and playground,
which are to be the most complete
of their kind in the Philippines. The
governor general has announced his
program for extension of primary
education throughout the islands.
The program covers three years and
provides for two thousand schools,
sufficient to accommodate at least
100000 primary pupils.

PHONETON, Ohio, March %.
|-(Six miles north of Dayton y
Almost the entire city of Dayton
is under from two to seven feet
of water as the result of the
breaking of a levee on the Miami
river. Thousands have been
forced to flee and wild rumors of
great loss of life have been cur
rent.
1t is not believed that these ru-
mors will be substantiated, as the
people has had ample warning of
the weakened condition of the
levee for hours before it broke.
The business section of Dayton
has suffered greatly and many Of
flee buildings have been abandon
ed. Business is paralyzed.
The main bridge over the Mia
mi river has been dynamited, as
debris floating down the stream
formed dam.
Trains have been unable to
reach nearer than ten miles of
Dayton since o'clock this morn
ing when the levee first broke.
Two other breaks followed and
then the whole structure gave
way.
