GEORGE B. TUTTLE, Exchange Officer. 7-16-6t Ona Where Mother and Son Both Cot Tiding of Disaster at tht Sams Tim and On Whr a Child taw Her Father Saved In a Shipwreck. Out of 140 dream of very striking kind Investigated by ona of the lend ing psychic" research societies no fewer than seventy-ulne related to a death, and perhaps tho rarest of all tbeso diva ins la the cane whore two pernoris dreamed the same thing on the same night, and tho episode com true. This striking Instance Is reported by tho lev. R. B. Elrlngtoii: "A woman parishioner of mine," bo says, "whoso husband was a Usher man, at that time on the sea, dreamed one night In terribly rtvld fashion thnt his little craft bad b'ii rut In two bf the towering tttcet bow of a groat liner. Her eldest son was with the bushand, and as she woke sho screamed out, Oh, save tny boy, tny boyf This was remarkable enough, considering tbe sequel, but almost at the very mo ment tb poor woman was In her dis tress, yet still asleep, another son was pounding at her door, half asleep and half nwuke, and crying, 'Oh, mother, where 1 futber? The terrified woman now rose and let the toy In. He wa crying. lie told her be bud distinctly beard bis father's beary tread coming up the stairs and bis ponderous kick with sen lioots against the door, as bad been bis maimer when returning an rtiptly from a long cruise. Neit morn ln the alarmed mother ami wife told nil the 'neighbors, nyd before the day was out tne (lrciuirui news came that every detail of her dream was true. Tho little trawling lugger bad been run Into by a coostlng liner, nearly cut lu twv and sunk with all hands, Includ ing her husband and son." Premonitory dreums occupy a large part of the psychological records, and the following case Is a very puzzling one: A Mrs. Spruit lived at Balmaln. one of the sutnirbs of Byduey, Austra lia. ITer buslmnd was a tea captain In command of the Atucsma, a wooden ship of 1.300 tons, which bad arrived In Sydney In n leaking state and was picked up cheap by a firm known as I'owllrihaw Hros. for $3,500. Twice as much wus sin-lit In repairs, and then tho Ataciinm was sent f up the coast with cargo of coal. 8h delivered this and next set out for San Diego. But when fiOO mile out from Byd- ney she sprung a leak, and Captain Spruit deckled to put back. In suite of tbe pumps tho water gamed, and suon there wus a depth of eleven foet In the bold. Spruit now resolved to abandon the ship and lannch the three hosts. The captain himself, with one seaman, tbe steward, boatswain and an apprentice, was In the twenty-four foot lifeboat, while tbe rest of the crew, twelve In all, were In the. other two boata. Heavy seas were Tunulng. and the boots were nearly swamped. As Pprult could not swim, be was nearly drowned. Some of bis men were lost Their situation was Indeed fearful In boats half filled wlrb water and exposed to a fierce gale 400 miles from hind. Again and again was Spruit washed out, but at last bla boat woaplcked up when Its occupants were In tho Inst stages of exhaustion from fatigue, exposure and lack of food. A reporter of tho Sydney' Morning Her ald called to Interview the captain and found him barefooted, with terribly swollen legs, covered with severe cuts and bruises. Now consider Mrs. Spruit's report to tho Psychical Itesearch society, which Is most remarkable. "Last Thursday week," she writes, "nt 8 o'clock In tho morning my thlr- teen-yenr-old daughter Lily came Into my tedroom and woke me by a tap on my forcbeud. 'Oh, 111010018,' she cried In a breathless whisper, 'I'm so fright enedJ I tried to soothe her, but she only oveml her face with her hands and whispered tremblingly: 'Oh, look My papa a ship is all wrecked! Papa's come home all In rags, with his feet and legs cut. and '1 see two or three of his men drowned out of the boat' "I told Lily aternly it was nil non sense, "'It Isn't? she aald passionately. 'I've seen It In my dream, and I know It's all truer "But I coaxed her off to bed. The girl kept worrying about It until the next Sunday. A week after her dream uiy husband returned, and Lily found oie crying when she came In from school. ' ' "'Oh, mamma,' she cried sharply. 'Is the Atacnma wrecked? "I told her evasively her papa had come home. "She was not to bo denied, however, and asked, .with strange persistence. 'Are papa's legs cut?' "I said they were. "And the very first thing she said to lier father was: 'Why, you didn't have those clothes ou when I saw you! The ones you had on were all torn in the shipwreck. " :,. Lily Spruit herself furnished a re port to the Psychical Research society. She said she woke in, terrible frlKht. having seen every microscopic detail of the shipwreck and Its sequel. She saw ber father get Into the bl boot and taep close to his ship for some time. Sie watched his boat capsize and the boy Allen drown. What woke her, she said, was the howling of the wind about the wreck, and the last she saw os tjie other men nnliimr her fi-Aiior The Daily Market Report PORTLAND, July 24,-Thcr 'are R. S.
