PREMONITIONS CF DISASTER
A a X airraaatakle Presest laaest let

A majority of women hare premonitions.
One clever matron, speakins of the Chicago
holocaust, said: I have been ia three
theaters th.it have burned down, and ca
each occasion had a forewarning of what
was to hapten. There was something in
the air. A cold bre.tb, as if a draught
had suddenly been created, indicated to
me that there was approaching Ganger.
I quietly withdrew jong before there was
any suggestion of flames. My mother was
often Influenced in ths Sams way. Some
people call it 'a rabbit running over one's
grave.' It is an uncanny feeling. When
ever muher felt it she would tell us that
someone was about to die some friend or
soqualnunce, I never knew her to be
1 wrong."
Most of TJS have experienced that mys
terious wind. God was la It, perhaps, when
the "still, small voice'' spoke to Elijah
on Mount Horeb. It koes blow, however.
The. lightest feather is not disturbed by It.
Trt we feel it. A chill sensation creeps
over us. much like that which one feels
on entering a cold storage vault, except
that it seems to affect ths mind, heart,
soul and all ths senses as well aa ths outer
cuticle. If there are spirits in th air it
may be their aura which affects us. At
sight of ghosts we feel ths same identical
sensation Let her they be nightmares or
some fantastic vision of a disordered brain.
There is unquestionably a phychle influence:
something not exaciiy det.nable, but mes
meric, clairvoyant, hypnotic and omnaa-
buliifuc.
At the time of the Brooklyn btrror the
Kit Claxton-Two Orpha r, hecatomb,
the first man tu leave the theatre re
mained outside. "What's tba matter?"
said an acquaintance; don't like the piece 7
"Very much." was the reply, "but I some

I'd belitve fcoroeibicg bad is going

thing" H must hare telt ths speaking
winj that never blows, but always fore

sensation, of cvid and myuery before ths
outburst of unreason. Once in a railroad
train I felt it. The "rairbtt ran over my
grave and my hair almost stood an end

"DENVER. Jan. 11 .Sfcial Telegram)
After a bitter fight, lasting three years.
George Tehee u wrested the Westera league
base ball franchij from D. C. Packard
who was the csuse of Tebeau being kicked
out of the league In 1!U for alleged double
crossing. Faekjrd rei-eived for his Western
league holdings fcy.w ar.d the refresh
ment privilege for two years. Today a
compromise was the culmination cf the in
junction secured hy Tebtau agalr.st the
Western league magnate, restraining them
from meeting uniers Le was admitted as a
member.
S'-rong influences hsve been brought into
piay In Tel-eau's behalf, with the result
that Packard became weary cf the struggle
and decided to throw up his hands and
quit tbe game. Tday s purchase by Tebeau
includes all of Packard holdings outside
of Ienver.
Otto Floto, sporting editor of the Denver
Post, will. It ha been learned, manage the
Western league team In. Denver lor Tebeau.
If Tebeau other r.ans carry Kansas
City and Milwaukee will be abandoned by
the Western league this season and possibly
EL Joserh. This gives Tebeau aad the
American association a clear fieid in Kan
sas City and Milwaukee. President Sexton
will remain at the head of the league,
which will consist of six team. Ienver,
Colorado Sprir.g. Sioux City. Omaha. St.
Joseph and Des Moines.
LINCOLN. Jan. 1 -The hearing In the
Western base ball league Injunction case
has been postponed until next Friday. C.
G Whedon. attorney for George Tebeau,
who asked for tbe restraining order that
prevented the meeting last week, asked
that ths case be continued.
The only reason given was that the
plaintiff had not had sufficient time to
prepare arguments in favor of the order
requested at the hands of the district court.
A few of the league magnates are here,
but a number sent word that they could
not reach Lincoln until later In the week.
