On Friday morning, Jan. 8, Mr. Rockefeller wore for the first time a pair of cork-soled button shoos that he had ordered a lew d . ye before. He found them a little tight, tut as the pressure was uniform he thought they would stretch into a good shape after a few days’ wear. Mr. Rocke feller i! a great walker. He walked about the greater part of the morning. When he 6ai iiwr. at noon hs felt a sharp pain in tho toe this right foot. A few Lours later, while at a directors' meutlug, the pain be came so sharp that he took the shoe off. The stockit.g under the ballot the big toe vai stfined with blood. Mr. Rockefeller thrust his hand Into tho shoe and felt at ;be tip the point of an Iron shoe nail. Hs tried to break it down with the tack of his ponkni e, but ho could not getltit. Then hs put the shoe on again resuu.ei bis business. He walked home that alter oon with bis brother, John D. Rockefeller— they usually walk home from ‘.Vi Kr idwsy to Fifty-fourth street—and in the earnesttess of conversation he forgot oil about til pain. When he reached home, however, he was reminded of is ve. y sharply and forcibly. Thecal: t.-I punctured the 6kin and pene trated a eighth of an inch. A physician was summoued, who left a prescription f, r a healing lotion. The next m ring Mr. K e'refeller went to bis coun try rttLienccat Tnriytown.

AtanvrV lb ? t animals can see . 1 have a very re -Bct to relate. There Is in Devon stire a large, rambling old house, whic: ,a> long bad the reputation of being haunted, ramily after family tried t > make it tui-.r hsme. One after another t hey gave it uo and for tbt same reason—that was fre ment Spectral ongoings in on* of the corridor*, sometimes tne ghest was seen by cue mem bers of tbe household, while it was invisible to others close by, which, of course, would Indicate that the seeing or not seeing depended ou tho ocniar condition of the farailv. At least, a skeptic would stron -ly urge that the probabilities were in favor of visual delusion. "Sometimes mysterious sounds showed the ghost to be about, while be was not visible to any of the watchers.” Hearing easily follows hys erical seeing. I have myself seen wires and lamps when I knew none existed. "The familv that last ocoupied the house thought a fierce and g might settle the problem, on the supposition that a human trickster was at the bottom of the disturbance. On the first night of the dog’s residence the spectral rattling* wero heard. The watch ers took the dog to the corridor. True to the instincts of bis nature be rushed to the front, barking savagely. Suddenly, when half way through tbe corridor, the dog stopped aud gazed upward in evident ter ror. His tail dropped, and then be retreated, trembling. But to the human eye nothing was visible.** This story is authenticated as coming from persons of unquestio. ed verac ity aud excellent powers of judgment. A writer in the Charleston Democrat sa y that he beard a lawyer of ability relate the following incident: ‘“Perhaps you are not aware that dogs and herses are as much afraid of ghosts as the most timid of the human species. I proved it at one time on two dogs. Not long after the war the negroes sere so bad about our place in Ken tucky that it was with difficulty that we could keep our tielongings on our place. Every other method Laving failed. I fluullv hit upon tbe plan cf frightening the n by appearing before them dressed as a ghost is said to habilitate himself. Of course the negroes were successfully frightened away from us, but upon one occasion I also frightened cur two watch dogs as badly as the negroes. The dogs were fierce fellow’s, and would allow uo stranger or strange thing on the place: but one moonlight night they camo on me in my spectral attire. The first dog to come up to me humped up his back until ail his feet covered not more than six square inches. His eyes stood out and his hair 6tood up, and he began moving backward, never for a moment taking his eyes from me. His companion came up, went through the same movement, and then both backed cautiously off together. As long as I could see them they put distance between us m that way. A few moments later I heard them barking at home, half a mile distant. They then took refuge under the house, and it was four days before we could coax them out of their retreat.” Of course this writer, as well as the nar rator, intends to convey the impression that these dogs recognized the make-up of their master as ghostly, precisely as a timid negro would have done. In which case it follows that thin white astral figures r.allv are something in nature that at times become visible to all visual sensei—at least of dgs aud men. I suppose many would reply, a dog Is equally soai ed at any unusual ap pearance, and doubtless has no notion of ghosts whatever. The reader must judge for himself. We must at least demonstrate that apparitions are at times visible to human vision, before this story is of any value. If you will oxcuse me for turning aside from tbe main thought 1 will give oue or two illustrations to snow that ghost seeing Is not so improbable as you have judged. Fanny Kemble tells us that when residing iu liitteuhouse square, her maid, si.ting so that she faced and could see the staircase and upper landing, saw the door of her bed room open, aud an elderly woman, in a flannel dressing gown, with a bonnet on her head, come out. walk the whole length of the passage, aud then return deliberately in the same manuer. The maid knew her mis tress was downstairs, and also was confi dent that no such persou as she saw could be in the house. Having good nerves, the woman did not at first tell Mi?s Kemble what she had seen, out ransacked the rooms to soe If she could solve the puzzle, all the time afraid her mistress would be dis turbed by some similar apparition, lobe afterward came on a portrait in tbe house suddenly that was an exaot copy of her ghost. A good chance, of course, for an imaginative maid, or a cunning one, to work up a fine yarn. Yet it is something that Miss Komble believed the girl did see an apparition. Miss Kemble tolls a better story, as follows: ' ‘Corryboro, my friend’s pleasant home in the Highlands, was a moorland farm aud grouse-shootiug property. The house stood within Us own grounds, at a distance from any other dwelling, entirely isolated, with no'habitatious in its neighborhood but those of the people employed on the land, which circumstances render curious what 1 am to relate. 1 was expected on a visit there on a certain Jay of a certain mouth and week. The perrons stnying in tbe house were friends of mine, as well as of the laird’s, aud had all been looking for my arrival in the course of the day. When, however, the hour for retiring for the night had been over passed in the hope of m v stiH possible advent, aud everybody had given me up and gone to their rooms, a sudden sound of wheels on tbe gravel drive, the loud opening of a car riage door, and violent ringing of tho door bell drew every one forth again with the exclamation: *O, there she is—come at la ti’ My friend and host ran down to tbe door to meet me, but found nothing but emptiness and darkness—no arrival and no carriage, nothing aod nobody, and be retired again to bis room. Tho next day I arrived, but though able to account for my delay, no one could account for what had been dis tinctly heard by salt a dozen persons.” Ev idently we must find more solid ghost evi dence thau this for a foundation to build an extensive theory on. The Epworth parsonage case, involving John Wesley, is of great value because it links both man and beast in the sensing of apparitions. Mr. Wesley says: ‘‘Soon after our large mastiff do* came and ran to shelter between us. While the disturbances continued he used to bark, and leap, and suap on one side t nff the other, atd that freouentlv before auv person in the room beard a noise at all. But after two or three days he used to tremble and ernep away be fore the noise bescan. And by this the family knew it was at hand; nor did the ob servation ever fail.” The testimony here is certainly crodibie merely as honest assever ation ; but we are free to judge wbetlior it was some electric or magnetic chenomenon that the dog felt, or was ghostly presence. Avery strange case is reported by Mr. Hodgson in September, 1890, in which a w hite lady appeared. “The third night the haunted roan’s dog crouched and stared and tnen aoted as if driven around the room. Brother saw nothing, but beard a kind of rustle and then the poor dog howled and tried to hide, and never again would that dog go to that room.” Robert Bale Owen repofts a case of a haunted man who had not been able for years to keep a dog. X confess these cases all seem different when looked at with some knowledge of dog nat ure lain suro that a scared man wou Id scare a dog out of his wits. When once a fam ily is convinced of the presence of uncanny powers, the dog and cat will be convinced of the same. “Bike roaster, like beast, ’is a very subtle law. Besides, wo know that all domestic animals are easily disturbed by unusual sights and sounds. They are de soenduuts of creatures that have lived on the constant alert. The rustle of a leat Startles a stag; the dropping of an acorn makes the squirrel leap. To introduce into their lives a nervous, excited environment istocarfy them back at once to their Wallace accumulates a host of these instances and sewn, to feel, after a while, iho force of numbers. But there is the old Bavii g y't s mud, that “An ounce of cer tain v outweighs a pound of g-esses.” It wmiUi take a good many pages of the wero'ou'coweriDg'dowu* with' affrfght; their HIE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY, JANUARY 22.1892. ome out; and when removed was found to t> trembl.bg all over.” AU this wuile ‘Sleeping,’’ if we are to take the words of the witness. But at least such careless testim ny must not go for too much. Dur ing tbe disturbances at the cemetery of Anrcr.sburg, w hen the coffins were over turned in locked vaults, and the case was investigated by an official commission, "horses of country people visiting the ceme tery were often so aiarmod and excited that they became covered with sweat and foam.” Before we believed there were ghosts in such a case we should wish to kuow several things: Were tbe country iieople so ex cited as to drive furiously Were they so excited as to become poor witnesses.’ Were the circumstances such as to make a strange story swell aud growl I am quitesure that, as a precautionery measure, any ope exam ining this testimony should read Virgil's description of “ Faun” or the old story of tho "Five Black Crows ’ —why may I not by this time say six j One more case oited by Mr. Wallace in the Arena is of a female figure seen by three persons floating over a hedge ten feet above the ground, wuea the horse suddenly stopped and shook with fright. I have my self seen too it any of these floating females —although there may tie a question of sex in a ghost—to believe in any of them. A puff of white mist has fooled me; better yet, a bush covered with white flowers. Being somewhat short-sighted, I remember with vexati n stoning and shouting at a clump of bushes which in tbe twilight I mistook for my wsndenng cows. Dr. Hastings, the celebrated musician, was so short-sigbted that, running into an old cow, he pulled off his beaver gallantly and said, "I beg your pardon, madam!” Mr. Wallace iusists that in the demonstration of spiritual presences there are crucial cases. “They show us unmistakably that large numbers of phan tasms, whether visual or auditory, and even when only perceptible to one of the persons present, are objective realities; while the teiror displayed by the animals that perceive them, ad their behavior, so unlike that in the presence of natural sights and sounds, no less clearly prove that, though objective, the phenomena are not normal, aud are not to be explained as in any way due to trick or misinterpreted natural sounds.” The poiut in the case is one that is assumed. Mr. Wal lace skillfully ooverß the issue, which is whether the terror dis played by the animals really was, in any case, unlike that in the presence of natural sights and sounds. This is what I believe is not proved. A dog is very sensitive to the human emotions displayed about him; he is above all creatures the echo of his master. 'The real question is therefore shoved back, to whether the people saw anything oxtra natural, I will not say they did not, but 1 say we are not called on to believe that thtty did, without the most irrefragable testimony. By far better is it to turn to the argument that “ Phantasms can be photo graphed, aud aro therefore objeotive real ities.” The kodak may be of great value in the ca3e, beoause then there is opportunity for cool review of facts. lam deeply sympathetic with the pur pose of the testimony given. I, too, sin cerely wish to demonstrate that spirits do exist, tangible aud visible at times, and that by that witness we, too, have assur ance of a higher sort of after life. 1 will turn to a case somewhat different, and which seems to tne to have inure weight than the others in demonstrating spirit pnonomena. A writer in the lieligio- Philosophical Journal says: "A fGw years ago one of my sons brought home a 5 weeks-old puppy of the Irish wa ter spaniel breed. He was brought up as a familv pet, and became a great favorite. He had more real character than any other dog 1 ever saw. When about 2 years old he broke through the ice in the park and was drowned. The family mourned him sincerely, and I personally felt the bereave ment. My nights are often wakeful, and I fell in the habit of wondering if all that intelligence and affection—that curiously original character—had gone out forever. Ho ba.l a habit of rushing into a pile of wood shavings in the backyard, for sport, and then carrying the bits in his curly hair everywhere. We sodded him till he formed the habit of shak ing himself with vehemence after his game, and then marching in as if he had done his duty. Some weeks after his death I returned from a few calls; the dog was entirely out of my mind. The housemaid let me in. 1 went straight to the library for letters. I stood in the middle of the library, and the maid stood in the had, facing me, anil delivering a message; when, just out side tho staircase door, we heard a sound, exactly the sound of Romeo’s bangles, that led Loth of us simultaneously to start and scream. ‘The dog,* she cried. ’He was shaking himself,’ 1 said, and I fully ex pected to sea him. We examined for the cause of the uoise, and tried ail expedients to reproduce it, but in vain. To me, since then, Romeo is in a comfortable dog heaven.” I like such a story, and such a pleasaut faith, but really this is a case that needs cross-questioning. If Romeo could shake his baugles once, why not oftener? Did tho maid possibly have a visitor? Tbe subject, however, is whether dog sees ghosts, not whether they can reappear themselves, although by parity of reason ing one proves the other. I am ready to believe that sensation may not be the same in its functional breadth in other animals as in man. That is a poiut not difficult to yield. The sense of smell is not only in dogs and cats more acute, but so much so as to be incomprehensible to us. While we have developed brain and reasoning power, they remain in a vastly closer sense relation to nature. Within that range is it possible or not possible, that they directly sense things aud condi tions that we have no knowledge of through our senses? A cat smells a bit of meat through three doors and rooms. A dog smells his master’s tracks five days after passing. A hawk sees his food or prey wnen to us it is invisible. A horse senses a prairie fire fifty miles away. We have here a field of study that should be judiciously studied. Do apparitions or ghosts come inside the range of animal senses aud not inside ours? So far we can only say that, iu spite of all that has been brought forward, the question is not proven. It is a case of non'sequitur. MEDICAL. FOR THE TOILET There is no more useful or elegant ar ticle than Ayer’s Hair Vigor—tho most popular and economical hair-dressing in the market. It causes tho hair to grow abundantly and retain the beanty and texture of youth; prevents bald ness, heals troublesome humors of tha scalp and keeps it clean, cool, and healthy. Both ladies and gentlemen everywhere prefer Ayer’s Hair Vigor to any other dressing for the hair. Mrs. Lydia O. 1 Moody, writes: 1 -; Ask For have used Ayer’s Hair Vig or tor some time, and it has worked ■wonders for me. I was troubled with dandruff and falling hair, so that I was rapidly becoming bald; but since using the Vigor, tny head is perfectly clear of dandruff, the hair ha3 ceased coming out, and I now have a good growth, of the same color as when I was a young woman.
