THRILLING MURDER TALES RECORDED IN OLD LAWBOOKS. A Dream That Anticipated a Cricie. A Mother's Traffic Vision The Re markable Performance of a Diain- terred Corpse. Law-reports of the sixteenth and seven teenth centuries contain numerous refer ences to supernatural occurrences in court and on the scaffoW. One of the most re markable records of this kind is connect ed with a murder trial which took place I In England early in the reign of the first Charles. Sir John Maynard, one of the greatest lawyers, is the authority for the supernatural events of the trial, and in his quaint preface to his notes he says he "thought good to report the evidence which was given, which many did hear, that the memory thereof might not- be lost by miscarriage of papers or other wise." One Johan Norkett, a farmer's wife, had died, and at the coroner's inquest evi dence was given proving that the wom an's throat had been cut from ear to ear. At first the jury favored a verdict of f elo de. se,' and the body was interred, but ru mors became general pointing to foul play, and the body was exhumed. Thir ty days after the death the jury assem bled before the body and four suspected persons were brought in. The only evi dence against the prisoners was that they slept in an adjoining room and that no one had passed that room; "therefore, if she did not murder herself, they must be the murderers. What took place at the remarkable post mortem inquiry may best be described in the words of a witness at the subsequent trial, who was described as "an ancient and grave person, minister to the parish where this murder was committed." This estimable gentleman said: "They (the prisoners) did touch the dead body, where upon the brow of the dead, which -was be fore a Jivid and carrion color, began to have a dew or gentle sweat arise upon it, which increased by degrees till the sweat ran down in drops upon the face, the brow turned and changed to a lively col or, and the dead opened one of her eyes and shut it again, which she did three several times. She likewise thrust out the ring or marriage finger three times and pulled it in again, and the finger dropped blood on the floor." Naturally enough such remarkable evi- dence'as this was received with some sus picion by the court, although the witness. to again quote Sir John Maynard, "was a reverend person about 60 years of age, as could be guessed. His testimony was delivered gravely and temperately, but to tfce great admiration of the , auditory." Ample confirmation of an obviously im partial character was, however, forth coming, and the "admiration" turned to horror, so much so that the prisoners were convicted, and two of them suffered death at the hand of the common hang man. Neither of the victims, one of whom was an aged woman, could ever be prevailed upon to confess any complicity in the crime. In 1751 an Irish murderer was convict ed largely upon dream evidence. A Wa terford publican named Rogers dreamed ece nighl tuat'he saw a man murder an other man on a green spot on the summit of na adjoining mountain. He was able next day to describe both mn with per fect accuracy, and did so to many of his fr-ends. One of the men was exception ally strong, the other weak and puny: but it was the latter who in the vision com mitted the murder. Rogers persuaded the parish priest to accompany him to the spot, which he found without difficulty, but where there seemed to be no traces of a murder or a struggle; hence Rogers got rather laughed at. Next day, however, two men entered the public house, and Mrs. Rogers at once recognized them from her husband's description of. the heroes in the vision. Much alanred. she fetched her husband, who was also cer tain they were the two men. When they rose to leave, Rogers begged the one he expected to be murdered to re main, ,but without avail. He nearly fainted with fright after the men had gone and finally persuaded a neighbor to ac company him to the green, spot on the hill, where, sure enough, the tragedy of the dream had taken place in reality. The murderer was tracked arid caught, and Rogers was the principal witness. His recital of his dream was so vivid that the prisoner at once confessed, adding that he killed his companion exactly as foretold in the dream. The weapon used was a knife, and as eight stabs were seen by Rogers in his dream, so the murderer admitted that he drove his knife up to the handle in his companion's body exactly that number of times. In 1801 a woman named Kraeme ap peared before a Frankfort justice and asked to be sworn, as she had valuable information about a crime committed in a remote village in Russia, many days' journey from her German home. The story she told the justice was this: Ten years before her only son had left home. She heard nothing of him and had no idea at all where he was living until the night before, when his spirit appeared to her and told her what she now hastened to relate. The revelation was that after leaving home the young man had wan dered about Europe till he had finally found permanent work in the village of Kiaf, in Russia. Here he had fallen in love with a serfs daughter who had a Russian beau. On the preceding night this latter had inveigled the young Teu ton into the country, where he had stab bed him and then concealed the body in a cave off the highway. The justice knew that his informant was poor and had never been outside of her native town, and he was so struck with the vividness of her description of victim, assailant and location that he for warded it to a notary in Kiaf. I Meantime Carl Kraeme had been miss ed, and on the receipt of the dream story the police hunted for the cave, found it exactly as located and also the body, with a wound corresponding with that de scribed in the vision. The murderer was at once arrested, and the Widow Kraeme undertook the long journey to avenge her son's death. Her recital in court was vivid in the extreme, and she screamed with fright when 6he first saw (the pris oner, whom she identified and picked out from among a crowd of men in a dimly lighted cell. She also identified the wom an who was at the bottom of the trouble. CONVULSIONa '"" ThT Are More Serious For Adalta Than For Children. The sight of a person in convulsions is terrifying, but in the great majority of cases the sufferer is in no immediate dan SZT' Aether or not the convulsion fore shadows a serious ending depends upon a variety of causes. As a rule, convul sions are more serious in adults than in children, especially very young children. Two things are necessary for the occur rence of convulsions first, an unstable condition of the nervous system the pre disposing cause and, secondly, some ex citing cause sufficient to disorder the weakened nerve centers. Th l'natnhiUfTr J of the nervous system is more pronounced m cnnaren than in adults and seems of ten to be hereditary, the members of cer tain families being more prone to fits than others. Certain chronic diseases of nutrition, such as rickets, are associated with an irritability of the brain and spinal cord, and convulsions are peculiarly frequent in children suffering from such diseases. Convulsions in children are very com mon at the onset of one of the acute fe vers, such as scarlatina or tnpontm At , that time the convulsions have no special signincance, but when occurring later during an attack of scarlet fever they may point to the existence of a kidney disease. In whooping cough convulsions are sometimes produced in conrequence of deficient aeration of the blocxx, owing to a partial collapse of the lungs. In children convulsions are perhaps most commonly the result of some disor der of the digestive tract, caused by the presence of indigestible material in the stomach or bowels, or of intestinal worms. Inflammation of the ear is another com mon exciting cause of convulsions, but teething, which is blamed for so many fits, very seldom causes convulsions un Jess the eruption of the teeth is exceed ingly difficult and painful. In children, as in adults, convulsions may be due to hysteria or to epilepsy. They may be caused by a great shock to the nervous system, such as a severe fright. Meningitis or a tumor of the brain may also cause them, both in chil dren and in adults. Whatever the cause, it will be safe to put a child with convulsions into a not too hot bath say at a temperature of about 96 or 97 degrees. Nerve sedatives are usually prescribed in the hope of preventing a second con vulsion, but the caused if discoverable, must of course be removed. Youth's Companion.
