Tho spirit mediums are having an awful
fhard time of it lately, says tho Omaha

lin various jails throughout tho country,
charged with being No. 1 all-wool-and-a-yani-wido
frauds, and, sad to relate, the

their beck and call seemed to have retained
enough of their human characteristics to de
sert the mediums iust when the latter
needed them most. But the strong hand of

tear. Judging from the reports that are
coming in from districts where mediums
most abound, even the spirits themselves
are Laving troublous times.

ROMANCE OF AHAT.
How aa Eastern Factory Girl ftoaa4 m
Ceaerous Husband.
Florence Gray was born up in the interior
of Rockland County, says the New York
Prnt. Five years ago her father and mother
died. She was poor and went to live with
relatives in another town. They didn't treat
her well, and she began to work in a hat
factory at Nyack. One day she was joking
with the other girls. She said she was go
ing to put her name in one of the hats that
she was working on, and she did. She
wrote on a slip of paper:
: FLORENCE GRAY. :
: Nyack oa the Hudson, N. Y. :
, ,!
This she put under the inside band of
one of the hats and thought no more of it
This Was fivn rrar am Vn anroMi ....
lately Mr. and Mr. William T. Germain, of rcnd5D of ? wife.
i " I fell asleep and remained unconscious
untd next day. When I awoke I was being
placed in zny coffin, that awe-inspiring,
ghastly box in which it was intended I
should forever rest, and yet I was unable to
make any sig:i3 to intimate that life still
lingered in my bosom.
j " Many friends cane to look at me, and
, as they passed by the coEhi I listened to
such exclamations as 'Isn't he natural."
'Oh, doesn't he look life-like! ' and the like,
that aro so plentiful on such occasion.
i "On the third day I was yet in a trance.
About nine m the forenoon, o I am told, all
, was roady for tho funcraL Into mv houso
fi.ed six of my friends, who transtmrt! mrr
coffin fnto the hearse by the door. After a
short time I was again taken out from the
fatal carriage; this was at the church
v. acre me benedictions were to bo
uounced
pro-
"The church had been crowded with peo
ple when the services began. The pine
boards of my coffin quivered as the deep
tones of the organ and the voices of tho
choir echoed through tho corridors of tho
sanctified edifice. The dreadful musto
ceased and all was hushed savo the heart.
Minneapolis, have been visiting their friends
in Nyack, and the Nyack bat girls have been
telling over again the old, old story.
Tho hat with the name in it found its way
to Minnesota, and William T. Germain, of
3Iinncapolis,got hold of it He ran across
the slip of paper, and after awhile began to
use it for a book mark. Several months
passed ; he took the volume up again. The
paper fell out ono day and attracted his at
tention. He was curious to know who Miss
Florence Gray was, so he wrote a letter to
her, telling her how the card came "into
his possession, and expressing a desire to
know more of her. It was not many days
l5cfora the letter brought an answer from
Miss Gray, who was still in Nyack. and an
interesting correspondence resulted. Tho
fact that Mr. Germain was a prosperous
young drj--goods merchaut made him not
less interesting.
I do not exactly understand howit was,"
says he, "but it seemed to mcthem'that the
name Florence Gray was in some way to be
connected with my future destiny, and I
put a great deal of feeling genuine, not as
sumedinto my letters, aud the young lady
appeared to do the same. Our friendship
ripened as our correspondence progressed,
and finally I made up my mind that I would
meet personally the womsn who had be
come the object of so much of my attention.
I left Minneapolis one davfnrntrmtn n,

The office of public cseeuti-jner at Vienna
l-s not a very desirable position. A few
days since this official, accompanied by two
assistants, went to Trieste to polish off
some poor wretch who was under sentence
of deatlL r. nilc sipping beer in a braerlt
they were recognized, and the place was
iuuseCiat-ely turaed into a battle-field. They
were moLbeu and narrowly escaped with
their lives to the nearest police station
The proprietor of tho hrastcrU then broke
tho glasses out of which they had been
drinking, anil, after chopping up the chairs
upon which they had bean sitting he made a
bonfire of them in the street The princi
pal barber in Trieste was obliged to publish
a card in all the local newspapers denying
a rumor that tho executioner had been
shaved in his shop, as in consequence of the
story getting abroad every ono of his regu
lar customers refused to continue their
patronage.
A low voice from the nulnit. which In.
creased m volume as it proceeded to review
the good phases of my life and to advise
the congregation to be prepared for death,
intimated that the pastor had assumed tho
sacred duty of his office. For fully an hour,
which to mo seemed an age, he continued
to paint in vivid colors the instability of
fortune and the shortness of life on earth.
He dosed with prayer, after which, as
those who were present were iiusslngto
take a last look at me, a mournful march,
every note of which pierced mv heart like
a poisoned arrow, shook the windows of tho
aucient church.
"All but the members of mv familv had
passed mo by. They were asked to take a
final view of the mortal remains of their
beloved husband and father. Grant Heaven
that I never may survive another moment

As my beloved ones, who vainly tried to
suppress their grief-laden sobs, stood bymr
head I felt a tear drop upon my cheek. Had
it been liquid fire it would not have caused
me such frightful paias.
