"I'zu not much of a believer in supernatural ()warren- ces, but when a plain fact comes into wy experience I am willing to admit it. What I am going to tell you 1 know and am satisfied about. You may or may not be, just as it suits you. "You remember," he began, "the time President Cleveland visited Minneapolis and what a crowd was there ? The StateFair and one or two other things at- tracted people enough, but the President's presence drew every one in the State, it seemed to me. I was on a Chicago paper at the time, and got an assignment to go up and take in the combined show. When I stepped up to the counter of the leading hotel to register I noticed that the man in front of me, who had just laid down the pen, was also a newspaper man from Chicag& There wasn't any- thing special about his appearance except that be was unusually tall and thin and didn't look very well. Naturally, when I had put down my name I turned to him and introduced myself. We shook bands and began to chat. While we were doing this the old man who was proprietor of the hotel, was inspecting his room rack. Turning to us, he said that there was only one empty room in the house, afi'd that we were welcome to it if we would double up. That suited me all right, but the tall man objected vigor° isly. I was a little huffed over it, and said that he could have the room if he was so selfish over it. I could sleep in a chair or walk the streets all night, I had often done so before. "Oh, no, said the tall man, it isn't tbat, I snore so badly that no one else could sleep in the room. I was thinking of you." "I laughed •at the idea and as- sured him that I would sleep as soon as I stuck the bed. Finally he gave in and we agreed to take the room together. It was a lit- tle bit of a cubbyhole at the top of the house, and the only furni- ture in it was a common bed and two wooden chairs. Another Chicago newspaper man who heard we were there came up to see 'us, and the three of us sat there and talked until I suppose it was 2 o'clock in the morning. Neither myself nor the visitor could recollect anything unusual about the behavior of the tall man when we compared notes &her - ward. At last we said good night and went to bed." • THIS IS THE ONLY RIGHT'KIND. DONOT SAKE ANY OTHER. • •• THE BEST! GARTH & co, AK I NG POWDER 1 Ff.',T378? SPLES • -et.

"I don't know how long I slept, and in fact I have never been able to bring up a perfectly clear re collection of whet happenedin that room. It seemed to me that I woke in about five minutes, but it must have been longer. My first feeling was of fearful dread. There was not a sound from the man at my side. A huge lump of ice seemed to be on my chest and press me down. I was suffocat• ing. I tried to shout but could not emit a syllable. It was only after a long struggle, that brought sweat pouring out all over me, that I could raise my hand to the inert freezing mass on my chest." It was a pulseless hand, the hand of a corpse that I clasped. I dropped It in horror and climbed nervously out of bed. The moon- beams came in through the little dust•covered window and played across the pale face sunk in the pillows. The feeling of the hand was still on my chest. I could not overcome the frightful sensa- tion of helplessness. I lit the gas and proceeded to call for help. Then it was in the better light, that I saw he was not dead. I went to his side to look at his hand, but some movement of mine awoke him, and he softly pulled it under the counterpane. I could not go to bed and remained up all night. In the morning when I spoke of the affair the tall man laughed and said I must have been dreaming, as did the landlord; so did my newspaper friend. I could not answer them, but 1 felt that some strange mystery was hidden that night in the little room. Shortly afterward the news came over the wires that my com- panion of that night had commit- ted suicide under circumstances of almost inconceivable horror. A few days afterward a letter came to me from him. He had writ- ten it and left it on his tablethe night bo took his tife. It solved the mystery. "The Christmas night before I met him in Minneapolis he was drinking in a saloon in Chicago with several friends. He made the remark: 'I suppose we have to again celebrate the birth of a humbug.' One of his companions asked him not te speak that way, upon the ground that it would be a personal favor. This led to ar- gument. The blasphemer said : 'Prove to me there is a God.' "The tall man drew himself erect aid raised his arm on high. 'I will call upon God, if He is a God,' said he, 'to strike me dead right here where I stand.' "Those around drove back, but no miracle followed. Tho tall man latikhed at his young friend. They parted for the night, per- haps a litt16 solemnly, but not much was thought of 'the matter. "One weak later a strange pain WHEN HE CAME HOME. 'Hand tne that collar -button,' demanded George Welleby, turn- ing with an annoyed air toward his little girl. •Learn to let things alone, will you ? There now, tune up and howl.' 'George, don't speak to the child that way,' said Mrs Wellsby depositing a shirt on a chair. 'Well, why can't she behave herself? Every time she sees that I am getting ready to go any place she makes a poi ,t of hinder- ing me. Let that cravat elope.' 'Put down papa's cravat, dar- ling, She's too young to know any better.' 'No she isn't. Other people's children know ho -v to behave. I'll bet 111 miss the train. I am sometimes tempted to wish she had never been born. 'Oh, George.' exclaimed the wife. wouldn't say that.'

Will be b ck in three or four days.' Mr. Wellsby is. a commercial traveller, a kind and tender- hearted man, but subjected at times to nervousness. Seated with several vivacious acquain- tances, speeding over the country, a little voice would steal in be- tween the roars of merry laugh- ter, and say: 'Kiss me too, papa.' In the samle-room of the village hotel,between the enquiries of the purchasers,he could hear the voice and at night when he lay down be could see the little hands reaching toward him, and could hear : 'Kiss me, too, papa.' - At morning when the sun- beams fell across his bed he thought of the bright little face at home, and said: 'God forgive me for wishing that she had never been born.'

'No scarlet fever or diphtheria raging, is there ?' 'No, not that 1 have beard.' The familiar scenes brought rest to his mind. He looked back up- on his trip with a shudder, like one who awakes and contemplates a nightmare through which he has just passed. •Good -night,' he said, paying the hackman.

MR EDITOR.—"La grippe," or Russian influenza, as it is termed, is in reality an epidemic catarrh, and is called by some physicians "lightning catarrh," from the rapidity with which it sweeps over the country. Allow us to draw. the attention of your readers to the fact that Nasal Balm, as well as being a thorough cure for all cases of the ordin- ary cold in head and catarrh, will give prompt relief in even the most severe case9, of "la grippe" or Russian influen- za," as it will effectually clear .,the nas- al passages, allay irritation and relieve the dull, oppressive headache accom- paning the disease. No family should be without a bottle of Nasal Balm in the house, as cold in the head and ca- tarrh are peculiarly liable to attack people at this season of the year, and Nasal Balm is the only prompt and speedy cure for these troubles ever offer- ed the publ'c. Easy to use and agree- able.

Lord Lorne followed, his course lying by way of Winnipeg, across .the prairie, down into Montana, and thence by the Northern Pacific to the coast. For these two excursions Canada da paid; Lord Dufferin's progress alone costing 45,000 dols. When Lord Lans- downe went West he inaugurated a new plan. He paid his own expenses. It was an innovation, intended probab- ly to show that there was room for economy somewhere. It is too early to inquire where the burden of Lord Stanley's trip will be placed; but it is not too early to say that the journey has been a quiet, pleasant, and withal 1 an inexpensive one.
