Psychological Phenomenon. A peculiar ocenrrence is reported in connection with the Malcomb damage suit on trial in the cireuit court Wednesday last, says the Gosheu Times. !Judge Osborn was making interrogaitious of a witness when an objection was made by the opposing counsel. After some argument, the court overruled the objection. Judge Osborn asked Stenographer Holmes to read the question from his notes. This M. Holmes proceeded to do, when the jndge insisted that he had read u question not yet proponnded, but one he | was on the point of asking when the dis- ! eussion arose. Stenographer Holmes, Il)_‘-’ some mesmeric influence, had ac- | tnally written = question which rei mained unexpressed in the mind of the | attorney. The matter was straightened out and the trial proceeded, but many |in the court room marveled at what seemed to them a very mysterious VSRI R SRR

A rather peculiar malady that bLids fair to rival the grip has struck some of our neighboring towns, It puzzles the physicians, and when the patients are taken with it they suffer intense pain in the stomach and bowels, which is almost invariably accompanied by o =
