Dr. Walter Brace, his brother-in-law, a native of Virginia, now resident at Micanopy, late on Friday night, December 28th, awoke from a sound sleep, feeling that there was somenys-terious presence in his room, and got up and lighted a lamp. Finding no one, he returned to bed and fell into' a light sleep, and had a dream or vision of his wife's brother, R. M. Stribling, in a deadly coriiiet, in which he had his throat cut in horrible manner, and was removed to a store hear by, placed oil a.

Tlie town of Lenora is situated in the portion of Norton county, in the delightful'' iSnlonion Valley, and the present terminus of the Central Ui'auch of the Mo. Tacifio railroad, north fork.

Only a little oVcr five years ago a mere country post office and store, it stands to-day one of the most beautiful, progressive cities on the broad prairies of world-renowued Kansas. Uesides affording those prized advantages given by nature delightful climate, lovely scenery, productive soil, abundant rainfall, pure water and good roads, it can boast of good churches, excellent schools, rsfined oitizns, and the absence of those traps of vice which corrupt the youth and lead the daughtersj from the paths of virtue; no rum holes, no gambling dens, no.houses of disrepute. i Not only is thrown made up of moral, intelligent people, but the entire conntry surrounding is inhabited by people in no way their inferiors.

Sure enough, the next mail from Virginia announced the death of his brother-in-law in tho exact manner and the very hour had appeared to him. A sister of the murdered man, who was visiting relatives in Kentucky at the time of liis death, had also a similar dream, and while relating it at th breakfast table was handed a dispatch announcing its fulfillment.

While on duty in' the British Navy in the Gulf of Mexico, he saw the form of Ins father in dream vividly presented, pale and ghastly, though when he had lately parted with him at Portsmouth, England, h. was.
