4 Haunted House in Indianapolis.

The Indianapolis journal tells of n friend who
had 70 20 q house hunting, and after q weary
search for several days was upon the point OF CIV
ing up the chase for a suitable dOmicIl, and had
about made up his mind to either take up his
quarters in the county poor house OF at the Bates
House, when 10 the sign - For Rent struck his
vision from the window Of q two story house on
Mississippi street. 1t was a house OF ordinary
appearance outside, but on going in a queer sort
Of feeling took hold Of our friend. 1t seemed To
him that the sign was a lie, that the house was
already occupied. but he rubbed his eyes and saw
clearly that the rooms We're a. empty as a cuckOO's
nest in March, 80 he rented the house and moved
into it.. From that day to this he has been living
with a ghost, When ne passes through the
house feeling Of something or somebody behind
him or about him pervades his senses.
There are certain doors in the house that, no
matter how we'll fastened they may be, are opened
and shut at pleasure by an unseen power, and on
one occasion the ghost was seen 10 pass out
through a bolted door. Members of the house
hold have frequently felt the grasp Of his ghost
ship and screamed for assistance. Night after
night all the noise Of i family household would
be performed by the ghost. and the most careful
scrutiny revealed nothing disturbed. Not long
since the noises from midnight until 3 O'Clock
were all those incident 70 the packing and NOV
ing Of household goods. The boxes were packed
with dishes and tin ware, the lid nailed down
and the boxes rolled out. Our gloomy friend
fairly danced for JOY at the parting, but his hap
piness was of but short duration, for not many
nights Afterwards the ghost moved back into his
old quarters. Since then he has been house hunt
ing. When he told the story, the big drops of
perspirati1n stood upon his forehead and he fair
ly trembled at the idea of being compelled to
guard his family another night in the haunted
house.
