Of any person or thing was visible, al.
though every nook and corner Of the
premises were carefully examined; nor
could any person in the house produce
the sounds they heard, no one being at
home at the time except his three little
children, the eldest q brave little boy Of
twelve summers, who, with pistol in hand,
was interlocuting the hobgoblin who has
puzzled the grayest heads In Buchanan.
Some two weeks ago Mr.. T, was watch.
ing in his yard, armed with q double.
barreled shot gun, when, as be says, some
thing like q thin shadow, bearing resem-
blance to q human form, passed by him,
but swiftly as the wind, and instantly dis
appeared. This is all that he has seen,
and strange enough, not track or trace
has ever been left behind, although night
after night, in moonShine and darkness, in
calm and in storm, the mysterious stran.
ger has come, played his curious pranks,

Every nook has been examined time and
again by many persons; and there cannot
possibly DO any subterranean retreat for
flesh and blood In the vicinity. The sur
rounding grounds arc plain and clear,
and II seems impossible that any person
could pass from the house unperceIyed,
even, In partial darkness.
This Is no hoaX-I mean this statement
and If you doubt It, would refer you
to the most respectable gentleman Of Blu
Chanan and It's vicinity, and 10 the Rev.
Mr.. Thrasher himself, who isa gentleman
of high standing, and q minister Of the
Baptist church. Now, what Is II and Is
It not strange that any person would risk
his life night after night, for six weeks to-
gether, and in the daytime even, for the
purpose Of playing foolish practical
joker And what object could any one
have in trying to impress on tho mind of
a minister the assertion Of Hamlet, that
"there are more things in heaven and earth
than are dreamt Of In our philosophy

sleCpless nights to do so? And II II Is

cpREAp THE TRuTH.

Some medical men insist that 1t Is undigniaed
TO advertiser remedy, however valuable 1t may
be. Queer reasoning this. It's like saying that
an article which the world needs should be hid In
corner-that benefits and blessings may be too
widely dlfased- the means Of protecting and
restoring health should DO close monopoly, and
not accessible TO oil. The argument Is bad. It IL
worse than that; tits iNhUmdH. Suppose Hos.

dyspepsia, bIlllousness and nervous debility
had never been known beyond the tEptrt0irS Of
the faculty, what would have been the conse.
quenecI Instead OF curing and invigorahng
millions, tho good effects Of tho preparation
would have been confined to comparative few.
There Is the highest authority for saying that
light should not be hid under, buShel that
whateverlS excellent should be placed as q city
on hill, where all men eau take cogniEance Of
It. Itsupon this principle that the BItters have
been advertised and continue to be advertised In
every newspaper Of any prominence in the west
urn hemisphere, and that the spontaneous testt
monials In Its favor have been translated into oil
written languages. Thousands enjoy perfect

EUGENE ARAM IN REAL LIFE.-Ed'
ward RulofI, recently convicted Of o most
vilIainous murder at Blnghamton, N. y,
has a history that Is truly stranger than
fiction. He Is sixty.fveyears of age, and
has for twenty.sevcn years led o life Of
crime. Deceiving, swlndIing, robblng,
numbering; yet in the midst OF all these
accused deeds he found much time to de-
vote to the acquisition Of knowledge, to
the mastering Of tasks and problems that
happily make the majority OF mon gen.
tier, nobler and better. This cold.blood.
cd murderer and conSummate scoundrel
Is II proiund philologist, good criminal
lawyer, and possesses considerable init
macy with tho cognate science Of medi-
cine and chemistry. And strangest, per.
haps, OF all, Is the startling fact that this
hardened criminal Is a self.taught man,
one who was q close student for the pure
love of knowledge. And equally mystic
rIOusare the facts that manuscript work
on philology and translation from the
French form the strongest links In the
evidence that ut last convicted this re-
markablc burglar and murderer. Athis
trial he defended himself with IN amount
Of legal acumen and knowledge that
might have acquitted him had the evil
dcnce been less strong against him.
