~ DIED.

In Boston, on January 3rd, Timothy William, aged 29 years,eon of John A. King, ot this ¢ity.

res A Grewsome Superstition.

A rumor got about in a village in Russia, not far from the German fron- tier, that the corpse of a woman who had recently been buried had turned in the coffin. Everybody in the village not only believed the rumor, but ascribed the prevailing drought as the cause. A village council was held, and it was de cided that the husband of the woman should have the coffin opened and the body replaced in its original position. The husband, however, promptly re- fused, and nothing could persuade him to yield to the unanimous wish of his fellow villagers, whereupon the latter took the matter in their own hands and went to the churehyard to dig up and open the coffin. To their great surprise the body lay in fts original position. Their astonishment was not lessened when the legal authorities appeared on the scene and opened an inquiry, with a view of imposing punishment for the desecration of the grave.

The whole neighborhood was pos- sessed with the idea that newly buried persons were to blame for the preva- lence of the dry weather, for in anoth- er village, not far off, a grave was opened and the coffin unscrewed to pour water on the corpse. The be- nighted peasants of this village were of the opinion that this was the best way to induee the elerk of the weathgr to supply them with much needed rain.
