DID HE SEE HER SPIRIT l A WASHINGTON DOCTOR TELLS A CUKIOUS STORY. He Claims that the Form of a Lady 'Patient Appeared to Him a Short Time After Her Death. From the Washington Post. Early on the morning of Aug. 14 there occurred in this city the death of Mrs. W il liam G. Norris, an elderly lady, who resided with her husband and several adult chil dren at No. 215 Eleventh street southwest. Shortly before her death, her attending physician. Dr. Julihn, called from the city to Onset, Mass., where he experienced, as he claims, the peculiar sensation of see ing Mrs. Norris as she had been when alive, about one hour after he had received a tele grum announcing her death. This occurred just one month ago, and since then nothing lias been said about it until yesterday, when the follow ing letter was received from a gentleman, who claims to have witnessed the same phenomenon which startled Dr. Julihn: Meriden, Conn., Sept. 13, 1887. To the Editor of the Post, In your issue of Aug. 15, 1837, there is a notice of the death of Mrs. William G. Norris, of your city, at 2 a. m., Sunday, Aug. It. I attended a spiritual seance that Sunday evening at the residence of Mi s. H. V. Ross, who is said to be a materializing medium, at Onset, Mass. There was present Dr. Julihn, 938 C street southwest, office Seventh street southwest, Washington, D. C., who was called up to the cabinet by what seems to be a frail lady, who called him by name, and gave her own as Mrs. Norris, of Washington, D. C., and conversed with him for several minutes, and he then in troduced her to the writer and several others who were present. The doctor stated to me that he hod been her family physician for the past threr-syears, anil that he was an entire stranger to every one in the house except, one gentleman, and he knew nothing of his personal matters or of the death of Mrs. Norris. The circumstance is so remark able that if you think it of any importance you are at liberty to use it in your columns. Re spectfully, J. W. Ca dwell. DR. JULIHN TELLS HIS STORY. When this letter was received yesterday a reporter called at Dr. Julihn’s office. He found the physician to be a genial and, to all appearances, an intellectual man, ana as he was ushered into a small and cosy room nearly filled with medical books and drugs, where the doctor receives his callers, be made known the remarkable story that had just been received. “I will tell you all about it,” said the phy ■ sioian, his face at once assuming a grave expression. “Mrs. Norris had been sick for some months before her death; so sick, in fact, that for weeks before I had to inform her husband that there was no chance of saving her life, and that her death was but a question of time. I attended her regu larly, however, until Aug. 12, when, finding it necessary to leave the city to go to Onset, Mass., I paid my last visit to her. I told her that I had to leave, and she begged me not to go. My departure was, however, imperatively 'demanded, and I arranged with Mr. Norris that he should telegraph me in the event of Mrs. Norris’ demise during my absence so that I could mail a certificate of death. INVITED TO A SEANCE. “This was on Friday, and on Sunday I was at Onset. Business had nearly driven my Washington patients out of my head, when about noon a telegram was brought me. It was from Mrs. Norris’ son, inform ing me that his mother had just died. I im mediately mailed a certificate and then started out for a walk. Near my hotel I met Stephen A. Morse, of the firm of Morse, Williams & Cos., elevator manufacturers in Philadelphia, at No. 411 Cherry street. I five you these details so as to show that I o not expect any one to believe this story merely on my statement. Morse and I were both strangers in the town, and in the course of our conversation ho told me that he had an invitation to a spiritualistic seance to be held that afternoon. I knew little of such things, but when he asked me to accompany him I readily consented. “In a few moments I found myself in a room with about eighteen other persons, none of whom I knew. The room was but dimly lighted, and at one end was a recess, before which wore hung two heavy curtains. Above the curtains was a small window, which admitted light to the room. When the performance began I saw some remark able manifestations, but was not over-inter ested until a materialized form resembling an old lady came from the cabinet and ad vanced toward mo. WAS IT MRS. NORRIS’ SPIRIT* “The lady walked with evident difficulty i'ust as I had siien Mrs. Norris do, dragging ler limbs as though in great pain, and re sembled in every particular Mrs. Norris. When she reached me she took my hand and gently pulled me toward the cabinet. I fol lowed mechanically, and when we had ad vanced a step or two, she turned to me and asked: “Where's Carry'” that being the name of Mrs. Norris’ eldest daughter. Her voice sounded distinctly and was heard by every ono in the room.’ ‘ Who are you,’ I asked, finding my voice with difficulty. ‘Doctor, I am Mrs. Norris,’ was the reply, ‘and,’ she continued, ‘they brought me here telling me that I could find my doctor from Washington. But where am I?’ she ex- Claimod, looking around her. *What has happened to me, I feel so well?’ “This rather puzzled me, but I told her that she had died or passed into the spirit world, as I understood 't, and that her friends had brought her to me to help her to realize her changed condition. I then recalled to her the fact that I left her in Washington a few days before when I bado her good-by, Bhe passed her hand across her brow as it' endeavoring to recollect, and then said * Yes, yes, I remember.’ She again asked for Carry several times and finally left me and -peared.” THE PHYSICIAN’S OPINION. “What is your opinion regarding this strange manifestation?’’ asked the re porter. “I am satisfied that I saw Mrs. Norris; but I can explain nothing else. What I have related to you is ns it occurred, and it was witnessed by quite a number of peoplo who also hoard the conversation.” “When the form took your hand did its hand feel natural?” “Perfectly so, and she loaned on my arm just as flesh ami blood would have done. I cannot say now whether or not I experi enced any sensoof weight. It is a very extrn orqinary occurence,” continued the Doctor, “and 1 wish you could communicate with Mr. Morse in order to prove tho truth of what I have just told you.” After 1 riviug Dr. Julihn, the reporter next called at tho houso of Mr. Norris, the husband of tho deceased, und ascertained there that, no far as tho doctor’s statement concerning Ins attendance on Mrs. Norris urn) the conversation with mcinliers of tho family are concerned, it is perfectly cor tee| Dr. Julihn is well-known in South Washington, where lie hiut quite an exten sive practice. It is not knqwn whether or not lie wus n former believed’ in spirit uallsin, hut certainly his experience, ns related by himself, has given him a decided leaning in that direction. Tlie doctor clainiH that die had not seen any of the witnesses of the af fair Imi'ore its occurrence, and that his ac quaintance ended almost immediately after.

WINNING Tho Victim Stole it From His Father, and the Gambler Won it From the ! Thief. From the Cincinnati Enquirer. I Col. George Duval was seated in a well- I known resort with a party yesterday, i Yarns were spun by the dozen. The Col j onel listened quietly for a short time, and j then asked if any of the jmrty had ever I heard him tell of his trip from Now Or ; leans, to Matamoras. Being requested to tell j his experience, he said: “It was during the war. I thought tlmt I I would make a trip over into Mexico. So I I packed up my ‘tools’ and took passage on a bark-rigged vessel, which was also a screw-steamer. Well, there were about forty passengers on board, and w o lmd u pleasant time for the fii-st two days out to sea, but ou the third day there came on a storm which tore the sails into strings, and the sailors could not stay on deck without hold ing on to the chains’or some of the lower rigging. It so happened that when the storm got started that I wars upon deck. I had been all night playing poker with the Captain and pursor. I saw at a glance that I could not get down into tho cabin, so I laid flat down on deck and got hold of a coil of chain, and there I lay, expecting every moment that the vessel would turn bottom side up. It so happened that there was a young man from New York on board, who was going over on business, His father was a very rich man in New’ York, and when he got to New Orleans anti showed letters from his father, some member of a rich firm in New Orleans gave him a pack age of $12,000 to be delivered in Browns ville, Tex. It happened that ho was also on deck at the time of danger, and after the storm abated he came down into the cabin and said: “ ‘Gentlemen, I am a ruined man.' “ ‘How so?’ asked some ono of the passen gers. “ ‘Well,’ said he, ‘I had twelve SI,OOO bills in an envelope intrusted to my care, and I had it in my inside coat pocket, and the wind blew my coat over my head, and I saw tho pnekogo go into the Gulf.’ “ “Well, we all felt sorry for him,’ said George. “He said that his father would have to pay every dollar of the money, as the par ties that sent it were great friends of his father. A poker game was kept up until we reached Bagdad, and the result was that myself anil partner got away with about $1,300; but the old Captain said he had played poker for fifty years and never played in such hard luck. We got on a lighter and were taken on shore. Then we took the stage for Brownsville. The Cap tain and purser were in the party. We had not been there long before dinner was ready, so I was very hungry, and I sat down, and had just got fairly at work when in came a squad of soldiers, and the Captain of the squad called out for me. I must admit that I felt a little ticklish, but I raises! up from the table and said that Duval was my name. He said: ‘The General wants you. Fall in line.’ So I took my hat arid started. They had their muskets pointing at me until we arrived at the Provost Marshal’s office. The Captain of the vessel and purser and several of the passengers were also summoned there as witnesses®. The General knew me, I having met him in Dubuque, lowa., several years previous. He said to me: ‘Duval, you must give back that $12,000 you won from that young man coming over on the ves sel.’ “ ‘General,’ I said. ‘I played no cards with that man, and I did not win one dollar from him.’ “He then summoned the witnesses, who all told the same story—that the man never plavod a card on the trip over. I was hon orably discharged. That night we made up a party to go over into Matamoras and have a little fun. Who should one of the party be but tho young New Yorker. We com menced drinking wine and fine fancy brandy. Finally we left the saloon and went over to a gambling house. It was a very flue one. I looked around the table a minute and then my eyes caught on to a New Orleans man who was playing a thirty six roulette w heel. I shook hands with him, and he turned to a fine-looking Mexican and said: “ ‘General, this is Mr. Duval from New Orleans, Gen. Cortonius.’ “‘Mr. Duval, lam happy to know you,’ said the General. “So the game went on, and I saw the Gen eral was a high roller. He bet $5,000 on one turn on the colors. I thought I would play a little, as I felt happy over the wine and brandy; so I took out a hundred dollar bill and laid it down on tho black, as it had come red three times previous. It won. I left it lay, and it came black again;so ! just picked up my money and turned around and said: ‘Well, boys, I see you are not going to play. Let’s go back to the saloon.’ Go ing over to the snloon my little New Yorker got hold of my arm and said to me that he wished he could gamble like me. He said that if I played again he would like to stand in with ine. That struck me as being all right. I saw’ that the liquor had com menced to work on him, so I said all l ight. We went over to the saloon and got a few more drinks, and I made a proposition that I would go over to the gamming house and make another plav. ATI agreed to go, so over we went. When we got inside the house the New Yorker pulled me to one side aud asked: “ ‘How much money are yon going to risk?’ “ 'About $2,000,’ I answered. “He was by that time pretty full, and took out of of his pocket a brand-new SI,OOO note and slipped it to ma I was too smart to take it, and called one of the proprietors to one side and asked him to give mv friend some small money for the SI,OOO bill. He did so. You see, I knew that all of the sl,- 000 bills that he said were lost at sea were new and hadn’t been rumpled. I rnaile a bet of S4OO and lost it. Then I bet $.300 and won. I played for about ten minutes, and quit S6OO winner. I gave him half of the winnings and his money he put up for the stake, and we went out to have some fun; but I stuck to my boy, as I knew where the $12,000 was and was determined to have it. Ho thought I was the smartest man in the world, and had great confidonco in me. We went over to Brownsville toward morning. Wo went to bod and had a good sleep and were ready for the next night. Woll, I posted my partner as to what I had in view. I told him not to notice me, and not to come where I was until I gave him the office to come. After supper tlmt night I said to my York friend: “ “I, do wish that I could find someone who would play poker with me, as 1 thought it was liko finding money for me to get a gamo.’ “ “Ho I think,’ said lie, ‘and, Duval if you do get up a gunie I want to bo partners with you.’ “ ‘All right,my boy, you shall not get left,’ I replied. "Wo did not gamble that night at the wheel, but tho next day 1 suggested to him that we go down to Bagdai I and see if we could get up a game of poker. He was willing, and I paid my bill, but left my va lise nnd roulette wheel, and told my partner to come down on tho following day nnd bring tho things. He earno. There was only one hotel In the place. The New Yorker recognized my friend, and said to me after ■upper: ‘Do you recollect the man who played with vou and tho purser comingover?’ “ ‘f did, of course.’ “ ‘Well, he is here, for I <aw him. Per haps lie might play with us,’ said the Yorker. _ .. "I said all right, that I would asked him. Ho we went out on the poreh, and I spoke to my partoer. We shook hands, we took a cigar, and at last I said to him: ** ‘I have oome down here to pass away a few days and have a little fun. I was think ing of getting up a game of poker.’ “He said that lie would plav a little while, so we want up U> a room, and In lass than four b no he had beaten me out of *24,00(1. i My New York friend wa* looking at my hand ail the urns.

There was a ship lying outside the bar going to leave that night. So my {utrtner engaged a room for us both. He took all the bag gage over, and that night 1 got a lighter man to slip me on board, and we were soon on our way to New Orleans.

Tho Boston Herald prints the following letter from Gen. Benjamin F. Butler: Boston. Mass., Aug. 28, 1887 Dear Sir: I hare received your note asking me to write some practical bints for young men on the acquirement, of wealth, which may be published. A difficult task is set me. as the circumstances under which young men commence life are so widely varied. Hut I think that more young men rail in the investment of what they earn or receive than in any other way to aequire property. The temptations to speculate are so great, and the desire to become suddenly, rich so sinmg that I believe eight out of ten, If not, more, or young men are wrecked ut the very beginning: If a young man is earning something more than the expense of his living, and has no ob jeot in view, he is likely either to increase those expenses carelessly, or to loan his money to his friends, and in so doing in the majority of cases he will lose both friends and money, so that the best thing that he can do is to have an object, to gather up his money, and to have a eall for it which shall be a profitable one. He makes no investment because he says; '“I have got so lit tle money that it won't come to anything, I will wait until I get more:” and in waiting, gener ally, what ne has goes, When a young man has a very little money let him buy some property, preferably a piece, however small, according to his means, of im proved real estate t'tutt is paying rent. He had better buy it when sold at auction, under a judicial sale, paying in cash what he can, giving bis notes for the balance in small sums coining due at frequently recurring intervals, secured by a mortgage on the property, and then use all his extra income in paying up those notes. It is always safe to discount your own note, and if the notes come a little too fust as soon as he gets anything paid his friends will aid him when lie is putting lus money where it cannot be lost, and where the property Is taking care of the interest, and in a very short time he will find that he lias got a very considerable investment. He will become interested in it, save his money to meet his notes, and lie will directly come into a considerable possession of property, and hardly know how it came to him. That is, he will have had a motive for saving, and will get the result of that saving, arid wnl not be tempted to enter into speculations. Not hing is so safe for an investment as improved real estate. Nothing is likely to grow in value faster. In the last fifty years SK) per cent, of all the merchants and traders in Boston have failed. In the last fifty years 90 per cent, of all the business corpora tions have failed or gone out of business, so that their stock tins been wiped out. In the last fifty years all the improved real estate on the aver age lius paid its interest and taxes and quadrupled in value. If a young mans father can give him anything to start him in the world he had better invest it in t hat way and let it ac cumulate and earn his liviog, and he will be richer I han if he had gone into business. Jay Gould is said to have started from a mouse trap seller to become a millionaire. Assuming that to lie true, he is only one of 80,000,000 of people; and if any young man thinks that he is goingto imitate Jay Gould there are 00,000,000 chances to one that he won’t succeed. The rule I would lay down for n young man is never do a mean thing for money. Be prudent anil saving of your money. Be careful to have no interest account running against you unless you have an equal or greater interest account running in your favor. Work diligently and you are sure of a competency in your old age, and as early as possible, if you can. find a saving, prudent girl who has linen brought up by a mother who knows how to take care of a house, and make a wife of her, she will aid anil not hinder you. I claim no originality in this advice, and will relate you an incident in my own experience to illustrate it: In my earliest pi act ice in my pro fession I was quite successful in earning money, and I had a small lxilauue in the Lowell Bank, at tho head of which was Mr. James G. Carney. The !>ank was directly across the hall from my office. I stepped into the hank to deposit a little money on one occasion, and Mr. Carney said to me: “Why don’t you invest your money v" “in vest." said I; “1 have nothing to invest." “Oh, yes,” lie says, "you have quite a little sum of money, and I see that your young friends come with your checks occasionally, evi dently borrowing it. Now, you had liel ter in vest it.” "How can I invest it: " “Invest it in real estate." “1 know nothing about real estate." "Go to the first auction and buy the property. You cannot be much cheated in that because you will have to give very little more than somebody else w ill ho willing to pay for it. Give your notes for it, save your money, collect your fees, pay our notes as they become due. See thni the property is improved property, so that the rent will keep down your interest ac count, und when you get any other money in vest it in the same way, arid if your notes press upon you a little taster than you can pay them, why, wo vriU, when wo find that is what you are doing with your money, discount your note and give you a little more time, so that you can pay it up. This will necessitate the promptcollection of your bills, for 1 know that you would rather work and earn SIOO than dun a man for it, un less you have a pressing need for it. You have not even asked for a little bill that we owe you in the bank, which shows me that you do not promptly collect your dues.” I followed the advice and bought a number of pieces of prop erty in that- manner, and I never did exactly know bow they were paid for, but they were, and in a few years! owned some twenty differ ent. pieces of property ill Lowell that came to me in that way. I can only say that I wish I had linen wise enough to have continued this course through life. I do not think that 1 need to extend these sug gestions any further, because if a young man won't mind these he won't any others, and I can not suggest any better ones. lam yours truly, Benjamin F. Butler. A WONDERFUL LITTLE ENGINE. The Invention of a New Jersey Man In the Way of Motive Power. From the Philadelphia Times. A littio engine no bigger than ft base burning stove, with a ten-horse power ca pacity, has just been completed by Mr. George M. Richnrds, of Now Brunswick, N. J., after eleven years of unremitting experimenting and work. It is an oil en gino, but not in tho sense of an engine that tins oil for a fuel to generate steam. There isn't any steam about it. The engine hasn’t any boiler, fire box, or highly heated parts, and, on that account, it is absolutely safe from fire and explosion. No engineer is needed. By an ingenious device oil and air generate a* vapor which finds a place in a chamber. When tho gas or vajior is ignited-it gives motion to the piston, and without any further attention the engine will run ilntil stopped. The cyl inders, of which those are two, are small ar rangements, but of Wonderful strength. Tho motive power is obtained by tho use of crude petroleum, or kerosene oil and com pressed air. To run a 10-horse power engine all day costsaliout thirty cents, at the pres ent price of petroleum. A singular feature of the engine, though sreiniug unnecessary in view of the cheap ness of the nil, is, tlikt it can Is: regulated to run at either dim*, two, three or* more horse ] lower, according to the demands made upon it. Tlie governor is so sensitive that it limits the supply of oil strictly to the amount of pownr used. A five-horse [>ower engine will consume übout one gallon of oil per hour, and the engine costs nothing while standing idle. As soon as the vapor in the chamber is ignited that instant the air-chamber begins its work, and the on tiro establishment is in full running order. Tiic air used is emnorosoel by the engine it self to anv required ihmsity, from sixty to 100 jsmnds to the square inch. Thus far Mr Rich ards'hss confined himself to en giues of tun hum oower, Irut he said to-day that engines of fifty-horse power can 1m math- without any difficulty.
