TWAS A DREAM, JUST
A DREAM HERE IT IS
Mr.. WaIlerstein Has a Vision in Two
Reels Which He Thinks Will
Bring Peace to Europe.

New York, Aug 15.-The memory of a
dream that visited Frank Wallerstein on
New Years Eve has so haunted him that
he simply had to get it out of his system
today. So he called up the Evening World
and asked that n reporter be sent to his
tailor shop at SO Seventh avenue.
What we want" said WalleTstein to
the reporter, lis peace. Now, II you put
down my dream in the paper and send a
copy of the paper to President Wilson he
will make them stop fighting over there
in Europe, where l came from.
My dream was in two reels, like they
have in the movies. First. looked in the
sky and saw President Wilson riding a
donkey.
He had on a white gown and a black
plug hat. and wore spurs which were
decorated with electric lights. He carried
a sword, and on the sword was printed
the word Peace Out of the donkey's
nostrils projected two great lights, like
searchlights. One of these lights pointed
to England, the other to Russia.
"I saw President Wilson vanish in the
sky. and / saw him again in the sky.
This time he was riding on a sea lion,
which he was guiding with a bride made
of white ribbon. He wore a frock coat
and a plug hat. The sea lion had on a
collar of electric lights. President Will
son carried a big megaphone, and every
minute put IL over the sea lions mouth,
and the sea lion said Peace And every
time the sea lion said Peace seven an
gels. who were flying around the Presi-
dent saluted."
