As Seen in a Vision Ol I am not a soothsayer; neither am I a prophet! To me the black arts are mysteries, while the science of necromancy is as a closed book. But. withal, I am possessed of a faculty peculiar to myself-zL power which has been the source of wonder from those who have witnessed its action and which has, as yet, never been sat- isfactorily explained! While not mystical, yet it is beyond my ken! Well do I remember the first time I became conscious of it! The Class was assembled in Hall H. The dean was engrossed in a disquisition on pericemeiititis. I was all in- terest! Suddenly I became conscious of a peculiar tingling in my fingers and toes. It spread and grew in force until my whole frame quivered. A feeling of numb ness overcame me, and thenethey tell me I swoonedl I clonlt know l All I remember is that I seemed transposed into another worldedifferent scenes, different faces, every- thing different! Little clid I them realize that I was look- ing twenty years into the future! Nor coulcl I at that time comprehend the meaning of it all! I do not, as yet. enjoy a complete understanding of this mysterious influ- ence, but experience has shown me that the accuracy of my visions is beyond dispute. It is not within my province to tell you what this power is, or why it obtainsibut my lingers are a-tingle! I feel Yes, I am gomg, gomg! numb! My eyes are heavy! A desert isle is spread before my vision! The verdure i5 tropicalrithe scenery beautiful l Numerous human be- ings run to and fro: all clad in the conventional garb of the Pacihc Islander. A tlignihecl, erect figure attracts my at- tention chieBy on account of a noticeable baldness. I look Closer. Van it be? Yes; it must he! Who would have thought it? Elias, our President! our ban vit'ante! To think that he. of all the class, should seek such a place to practice! But I read his story in his features. A tale of disappointed affection, a paen of unreasonable State Boards, a lyric of self-remmciation, a story of a mis-spent life. But not quite so! For behind him I see the figure of a woman. The hgure, I say, for the face is Smiley's. Kind, gallant, loyal Smiley! Rather than see Elias deserted he renounccs all kin, and follmvs him! As the figure ap- proaches it taps Osborne on the shoulder, and, in a familiar voice, says: llWake up, you old nut! Lizzie is waiting for you in the kitchen ! A glow more than human lights up Eliasl features: and, with awakened memories of an al- most forgotten past, he turns and walks from my vision. 44-
