Deolsion of Judge Aylesworth Ro- garding Sunddy Shaving. TRAFFIC RUSHING ON THE RAIL, A Bank Note With a History—Annual Meceting of the Mind Moulds ers—The Building As- sociation, No More Sunday Shaving. “Sunday shaving is not a necessity,” said Judge Aylesworth yesterday in rendering his decision in the barbers’ cases, “Itis un- doubtedly very convenient oftentimes, but that has no bearing on the law in the case. As I understand it, these cases against John Bohn and Fritz Bernhardi are not brought 80 much for the purpose of prosecuting the defendants for what has been done in the past in tho way of keeping their shops Sunday, as to provent from ruoning in the future, The parties who are pushiog the cases simply desire thut the act shall not be repeated They have the law on their side, and th court_holds that their position is good, and that those who violute the lav may be prose- cuted and punished. No fine wiil be inflicted in these cases, however, uantil it can bo scen what arrangements can be made, and what the programme_is for the fu If every- thing is settled sntistactorily, it is probable that judgment will be indefinitely potsponed.'” It is understood that if the Jdefendants agree to closo, now that the court has decided againsy them, a motion will be made to have the cuses against them dismissed, upon pay- ment of costs. It will be remembered that there were, at first, three of the barbers who joined the opposition. Frank Levin was induced to join them, but he concluded, after legal pro- ceedings bad been commenced, that he was not 8o much opposed to closi after all. Said he, vesterday: ‘“The court has now de- cided tho question, and all of the shops must close. Iam ready to abide by the decision. Some of them say that they will now go ahead ard close up every branch of Sunday busiuess, but [ am opposed to that. Iam peaceably disposed and don’t want to harm anybody. Idon’t propose to shut up eve other branch of business, just because I can't run. There is nothing just nbout such a course and I am not i for it. -~ Iagroed to keep open as long as the others aid and I kept my word. Iam not bound to do any more than that.” Inquiry was made of Iritz Bernhardi, as to whether it was still the intention 1o ad- here to the original plan and close all othor branches of Sunday industry. Suid he: ‘I, don't know yet. I want to hear from John Dohn before I say anything about il f we agree to do that we will go ahead uutii every- thing will have to shut up shop. Levin played rather smart and_wanted to shut up after he had gone in. His shop is reaily where the Sunday closing idea started. Now he don't want to push the case any further, for he has a cigar stand which he wants to keep open. If we decide to shut them atl up, that cigar store will be one of the first to close. I have becn in the bu ss for the past thirty-one years, and have always worked Sunday uutil within tho past two weeks. The court has decided against us and we will have to submit.

We are shipping immense quantities of wool. For the past month we have sent out on an averige of one wool tram of twelve to tweuty cirs a day. The wool comes from Idaho aud other western Pumtu and is nearly all billed to Boston. There has been no let un o 1t as yet, and it will probably continue for some time. ‘““We are also handling considerable tea. We sent out a cargo of twenty-five car loads this morning. 1t was billed to New York and Boston. We run it through on passen- ger time, and it left in two trains, as sections two and three of No. 4. They will_probably double up at Brooklyn, the second division east of here, as one_engine can pull them through from there. You see, we can’t send big trains out of the Bluffs. There are too many heavy zrades between hore and Atlantio for a locomotive to climb with a heavy load. Wo generally send out from twelve to fif- teen cars to a train, and this is enough. One of our heaviest mogul engines will take through fifteen cars of stock, but it is a heavy load. There are some long and stecp hills to be chmbed, and even if heavier loads could be pulled, the loss in time would more than counterbalance it.

J. Heory Skewes, vicar of Holy Trinity church, Liverpool. Accoraing to this writer, Sir John Franklin’s fate was the subject of a special revelation. Readers of Arctic history are well aware that the British governmentseut many search expeditions to find traces of Franklin, bur without avail. Ac- cording to Rev. M. Skewes, a child of four years, the daughter of a Captain Coppin, of 'Londonderry, died in May, 1849, and for mauy months after reap- peared in the spirit form to various members of the fumily. The Franklin m[)uwrv was being discussed every- where at this time, and a seven-year- old sister of the dead child, at the sug- gestion of her aunt, quesuoued the ap- parition on the subject. Thereupon,says this little book,*‘there appear ed upon the floor a complete Arc- o sea, showing two ships surrounded with ice and almost covered with snow, including a channel that led to the ships,” This scene, or chart, was copied, and, inanswer to further ques- tions, there llp|wn|e(l upon the opposive wall in lur e, round letters the follow- ing: us and Terror, Sir John Fl'm)klln Luu ter Sound, Prince Re- gout Iy 19 Point Victory, Viocworia Cap i Coppin. is said to have for- warded this vur{ definite message from the unseen world to Lady Franklin, who was so impressed with it that she insisted that Captain McClintock, who sailed on the final search expedition in 1857, should follow the exact route thus laid dowan.

Mrs. Foster, a motherly looking woman nearly fifty years of age, sat in her home at the corner of Third avenue and One Hundred and Sixteenth street, New York, one evening sobbing and praying that her son_Benjamin was not (hm\nud By her side wus her young dnughter Gracie, whose eyes were red with weeping. The drowning of young Foster was at- tended by two remarkable dreams or {sions by his sister and niece, that are almost supernatarally pathetic. Carrie Tanner, the niece, is a dark- eyed young woman of twenty. She says that about 2 o’cl she awoke,and stinding by her bed-side dvipping with water she beheld Benjamin. “Oh, Benny! what has happened?” she exclaimed, as she sat bolt upright in bed, trembling with fright. The figure, apparition or whatever it was, made no response except to put its right hand to its brow. As it did so the form began to recede from her couch and vanished gradually in the darkness. The giMl got up from the bed, and, kneeling down. prayed for the welfare of Benjamin’s soul. = After fin- ishing her prayer she laid down agan, but could not sleep during the rest of the night. Little Gracie, the sister of young Foster, is about thirteen, and has a sweet, innocent-looking face. She re- tired about 9 o'clock, and some time during the night startled her mother by shouting: “Take the pall off Benny, mother! Take the pall off hin Don’t you see you are choking him? He’s not dead.” Her mother ran to her bed and roused her. She was lying on her bask with her eyes closed. She did not know that she had spoken until informed of it, but remembered her dream distinctly, and described how she thoughtshe had seen her mother choking Benny.

A most remarkable case of a dream coming trne is toid by Thomas Stewart o coloved painter living a 1239 Franklin avenue, in_Columbus, O. The story us ted by Mr. Stewart is confirmed by his friends, who assisted him in earrying out the hint given him in his wonderful dream. “*Some time ago I was bereaved in the loss of my wife,” he said to a reporter, “and following the sad event I have been thinking about her all the time, day and night It has prayed on my mind all the time and affected my sleep, so much so that I have had one dream after another about her. One night I had a strange dream about her as usual. 1 thought I saw her in the grave and in her coffin. She scemed to me to be ust as she was in life, and I could hard- iy think she was veally dead.

I Lad fully made up my mind as to what T should do any- how, and their opinion was the same as my own. We resolved to go out to Greenlawn and see for ourselves what the dream meant. “With a party of friends we went out and had the grave opened. When we ched the coflin the wning of the dream was rovealed to us. The ground about it was wet and soggy and beneath the box was a bed of watér. On open- ing the lid we found the coffin full of water and the body of my wife floating on the same.

He discoveded the front wall out of plumb from ‘some unaccountable cause. While examining it a sharp voice uttered these words in his ears distinetly: ‘*There will be an accident within ten minutes. Part of the walt will go down. Go with your men to the back of the building "' As no one was in pight the voice/staggered him and he lost no time in'complying. In less than ten minutes six yards or so of tha wall fell with a crash? It was caused by the improper wedging of some timber. A man named Freeman at Chatta- nooga confessed on his death bed that he had murdered twe men in that very house, A few days ago, James Beam, riding in broad daylight, passed the house where Freeman died and heard sounds of angry altercation within, He entered, pistol in haund, and, although every room was apparently empty, the voices were almost deafening. Then a dark cloud settled upon him and a strange sense of fear took possession of him. He rode away and summoned as- sistance. A party of ten men returned defiant. ’ll)u_y heard the same voices, the room grew dark, and shadowy forms flitted about. One of the men tried to light a match, but after several had been blown out when struck, the plt'rl\ left the house as rapidly 4 possi le, fully convinced that something was wrong, although wholly unable to de- termine what it was, TIME TABLE i OF THE LAKE —~TRAINS LEAVE- BROADWAY.
