DONALD HACK SAYS
GIRL SAVED HIS LIFE
IN A DREAM SHE WARNED HIM
TO TAKE ANOTHER
DIRECTION.
(Seattle Times >
SYRACUSE. April 25-—A dream
in which die appeared to him and
| saved him from death in the wilds
| of Alaska was the introduction Don
[ old Mack, of Juneau, Alaska, weal
thy mining engineer, gave himself
in a letter to Miss Ethel Williams, a
prominent Syracuse University so
ciety girl
Miss Williams, who resides with
her father and sister, received a
picture of a dog team and the fol
lowing words penned in a ibasculina
haul:
“If you will write to this address
I will tell you why I have sent this
card”
She did- He did
Miss W|iiiams received the fol
lowing story from the man in the
North, after the ice had sufficiently
broken up to permit the transporta
tion of mails:
“I am a mining engineer, and my
work has taken me far into the in
terior of the country- Ordinarily I
finish my work and reach the set
tlements before the lakes and rivers
close and am able to make the trip
by boat and canoe. Last fall I de
layed too long, and was obliged
to come out by sled, a distance of
TOO miles
Shortly before 1 reached Lake
fagash I fell in with three Indians
and a Frenchman on the trail- We
started to cross the lake, stopping
midway on a small island to rest
and sleep- While I slept, I dream
ed I saw a young girl dressed in
light summer clothing, standing in
the deep snow around me
“It was so real to me that I
asked her who she was and why she
was there- She told me her name
was Ethel W'illiams and her h<Jre
in Syracuse. N. Y. She said she
knew it was my intention to keep
on the direct route over the lake,
but that disaster lay in that direct
ion, as there was open water cov
ered by drifting snow. To be safe
I should go about twenty-five miles
op the river- where I would find
safe crossing *
"At this point I was awakened by
the howling of dogs and the shouts
of the Indians- It was 3 o'clock in
the morning- They were making
ready to go- I told them of my
dream, and they laughed at me- But
I did not go on with them.
T followed the instructions of
the dream girl, and when I reached
Juneau the Indians and Frenchman
had not been seen- I headed a
searching party down the lake to
the point where they should have
readied the mainland- We found the
canoes and their sleeping hags and
other camp ontfi.fit floating in the
open water
“So, Miss Williams. I consider
that you hare saved my life, and
mailed the card to you from Ju
neau”

ITALIAN'S DISCOVER
NEW BREAD METHOD
ROME, April 29.—A new method
of making bread recently adopted
in Italy has proved a great success
It is found that 300 pounds of
grain produces 400 pounds <j|f what
is termed “natural bread " ^
In the process the grain is sifted
and washed; it is then left for for
ty-eight to sixty hours in a warm
bath, where it germinates and be
gins to sprout- When the germinat
ing process has gone far enough
the grain is crushed in a machine
and made into dough, that is passed
into the oven.
The bread is grayish in color
with an agreeable odor, and has
ranch higher nutritive properties
than white bread, it is said.
