DISASTER IN A DREAM. -

WHITE HAIR AND DUMBNESS

*CAUSED BY FRIGHT.

Mr. H. M. Jessen, a farmer of Onawa, in the State of lawn, has become a white haired mute following a dream in which he saw his wife and children crushed, be- neath an overturned motor-car.

Mr. Jessen had planned a motor trip with his family to Sioux City, but, being detained by work, permitted the car, driven by one of his children, to leave without him, ir. Jessen travelling later by train.

He arrived at his destination, however, before his family, and while sitting wait ing in the foyer of the West Hotel dream- ed of the fatal accident.

When he awoke he frantically waved his arms, but could not speak. His family, when they arrived, found him still dumb. They told him that their motor-car had stalled on a railway crossing and that..n train was only brought to a stop a few inches from it, so that the accident of which he had dreamed very nearly took place.

The farmer appears to be permanently dumb, and his hair has since turned white.-Daily Express.
