says: 'jhe mutiny Iins reached tho

7 h: re is an unconfirmed report that
trouble similar to that nt IAhnu has
broken out af. Revel. The Ministry
of Marine politely refuses to give the
least information concerning the
troubles at those places or at. Odes-
sa. but official circles, eviiectully the
Department of Police, believe that
the outbreaks were planted by revo-
lutionists, and are manifestly
alarmed. Their alarm is shared by
the Inviter social circle's of the capi-
tal, whore the long established faith
in the unflinching loyalty of the P:un-
pr'ror's meted forces is beginning to
waver, bringing inevitable dread that
the revollition so often declared to
be inrpo5.sible may yet be accomplish-
ed, perhaps has already begun. It is
unquestionable that the occurrences
at Odessa nod Lihnu have more
deeply impressed the ruling cla.stei
here than all the defeats in Man-
churia and the destruction of Ilio
navy combined.

LOST THROUGH DREAMS
STRANGE STORIES OF NOC-
TURNAL "TIPS."
Colonel Booker's Experience With
Dreams Was a Distastrous
One.
It is well known that there is no
lean more superstitious than the con-
firmed gambler, and nine titnea out
of ten, i( he obtains ahat he regards
as a '•dirt•et tip" through the instru-
mentality of a dream, be will play
it. and continuo to play it, though
the results are as disastrous as in
the following erases says London Tit -
Bits.
One of the most remarkable in-
stances in which a largo sunt of
money was lust through putting too
much faith in a dream occurred
about five years ago to a Colonel
Booker, who refuted tate facts himself
to tho present writer. In 18919 Col-
onel Booker was in Mexico City, and
while there played roulette regularly
in tho casino. One night, after winn-
ing u Lair amount, ho retired to rest
and had a curious dream. Ho
thought he was coming out of the
theatre with a lady on his arm,
when a cabman cattle up to him and
asked hint if he wanted a cab. '1'tto
colonel turned to the lady and in-
quired if she would ride, but sho de-
clined, whereupon rho cabman took
a piece (if chalk from, his pocket and
marked the colonel's sleeve with
THE NUMBER ELEVEN,
Then Colonel (looker awoke, and was
so much impressed by his dream
that he believed ire had received a
bona -fide "tip" to put his money on
that number.
That evening he followed the noc-
turnnl.advico, and lost. But so
great a hold had the dream taken
upon hint that he continued to play
the same number, and though be
lost nineteen times out of twenty
he persevered for several days, at
the end of which time be found his
losses amounted to $25,000. 'Then,
like a wise non recovered from his
foolishness, the colonel decided to
"quit," and since then ho has put
very little faith in dreams as an
aid to suocessful gambling.
But Colonel Booker's experience
with nocturnal "tips" was ny 110
means so disastrous ns that of a
certain rich young man at Monte
Carlo some few years ago. This
young fellow, whom we will call
Snaith, was a member of a well-
known and highly respected Devon-
shire family; he had gono the "paco,'1
and had lost a considerable amount
in horse -racing and gambling, when
ono night ho had a dream which
greatly impressed itself upon him,
and which was the direct means of
' d for -
thought
t r mute this
his losenf, tl c c cr o
tune.
IIo he was standing In
it
Avenue do 1'Opera, Paris, whoa
w police officer canto along with a
squad of gendarmes and halted with-
in a hundred feet of him.
HE WATCHED TiHE IDLY,
and soon experienced an uncontrolla-
bio desire to find out how many
there were, but Just as he began to
count. tho officer issued peremptory,
commands, *hick were so promptly: -
obeyed that the .' earner had no
chance 'of satisfying his cariosity.
Fatally, however, the nten stood in
single Lilo facing their officer, and
Mr. Smith was just able to make
out that there were twenty-seven is
all when ho awoke.
Being superstitious, like alt gams
tilers, he at once saw in his dreatn
tho finger of Fate silently pointing to
twenty-seven as the lucky number,
and the following day he was early,
at tho tables and staked a large
sutn on it. Curiously enough, twee.
ty-seven won 1.wice in succession.
and then the luck changed and ho
began to lose steadily, Most of
that day he played his favorite num-
ber without success, and when the
casino closed that night ho bad lost
a considerable amount of money.
The next day ho continued to play
the same number with the same re-
sult, and, to cut a long story short,
that fatal twenty-seven ran away
with every penny he possessed, and
Ito wan only prevented from shooting
himself by an interested spectator.
who followed hien out of tho casino,
and by tact and the loan of a small
sum induced him to face his misfor-
tune like a man. 'Those to whom
Mr. Snaith afterwards related the cir-
cuntstnnces of tho dream declarer)
that he had anode a inistuko in not
counting tho officer as well as the
gendarmes.
A CURIOUS INSTANCE
of how a dream lost a fortune to
one mean and gained it for agother
comers from the State. Two years
ago a tuilliunairo of the name of
John Baker died, leaving his entire
fortune to pis yaunger son, cutting

dated the sante year that the mil-

with. This man, Robert linker, be-
lieved that another and a later will
existed, but as it could not be

possession, and made no attempt to
share his good fortune with his

Some weeks after Robert !taker

in the room he' used to occupy. So
vivid was the dream that the fullow-
ing day, ,when his brattier was at

found the will in the place indicated
