A NOVEL Guosr.-The Detroit Free
Press says The conductors on the
First street route have nice little sen
sation all to themselves. About ten
nights ago the conductor Of the last car
down, having no passengers beyond
Twentieth street, was standing III the
front door talking to the driver, when
he heard a rustic of silk, and looked
about to see woman seated in the car.
He wondered to himself at her agility
in boarding the car while the horses
were in trot, and after the car had
passed along several blocks, he started
forward to collect her fare and to ask
where she desired to stop OFF. She had
her face turned from him, and as he put
out his had to touch her shoulder, the
lady vanished. The conductors hair
stood up. and the driver felt cold chllls
run up his back. Every night since
then, as half dozen conductors aIlege,
the ghostly passenger boards the last
car provided there are no other passen-
gers, and after riding few blocks she
s Suddenly varishes. Some Of the drivers
have remained on the rear platform to
see where she gets on, but the first
thing they know she is iii the car. They
describe her as being richly attired Ill
winter clothing, having shawl, hood
and muff, and so closely yelled that a
glimpse at her features is impossible.
Whatever the general public may think
of the affair, it is certain to the minds
of ten or fifteen conductors and drivers
that they have areal ghost on their hands.

SAD SroRY.-A correspondent of the

folk, kissed his wife AMI children and

About MONDAY very severe storm
came up, and Mrs. Sumner bad Just
laid the table cloth and fixed the knives
and forks for dinner. Her twin boys
nine or ten years old-and one Of them
deaf, came into the house as Mrs. Sum
ner sat in her chair, after hatchet anil
some nails, to go on. aud nail Up the
fence. Just as they got 10 the door
going ont the lightning struck the
chimney Of the lIouse, and the liitlcboys
fell dead ont Of tic door Mrs. Sumner
ran 10 the door and tainted, and fell ont

boys. A can Of kerosene in the slme
room on the mantel piece had taken fire
and caught the clothes Of Mrs. Summers
little girl, and the house was catching
fire, as the grown daughter of Mrs.
Sumner ran out from the kitchen, and
this scene met her eye. She and on
old woman put out the little girl and
smO,hered the fire in the house. The

Domestic Experience,

Putting hoop on the family flour
barrel is an operation that will hardly
bear an encore The woman generally
attempts it before the man comes home
10 dinner, She gets the hoop up on the
end Of the slaves, takes deliberate aim
with the rolling pin, and then shutting
both eyes, brings the pin down with all
the force Of one arm, while the other in
stinctively shields her face Then she
makes a dive for the camphor and un-
blcachcd muslin, and when the man
comes home she is sitting back Of the
stove, thinking of st, Stephen and the
other martyrs, while burnt dinner and
the camphor ale struggling hcroically for
the mastery. He says that il she had
kept her temper she wouldn't have got
hurt And he visits the barrel himself,
and puts the hoop on very carefully, and
adjusts it so nicely, to the top of every
stave, that only few smart knocks ap-
parently are needed to bring it down all
right, then he laughs to himself to think
what n fuss his wife kicked up over a sim
pie matter that only needed little pa
tience to adjust itself, and then he gets
the hammer, and fetches the hoop sharp
rap on one side and the other side flies
up, and catches him on the bridge Of the
nose, filing his soul with wrath and his
eyes with tears, and the next instant that
Darrell is flying across the room accom-

The Tweed Trial.
NEW YORK. Ian 4

NEW YORK, Jan. Is.
further objections made by the de-
tense were overruled at the Tweed trial
to-day, and witnesses called. Richard
s. Storrs, Assistant Comptroller. who
held the same position in 1870, under
Connolly, when Tweed was president of
the Board of Supervisors, was sworn
and produced several vouchers and other
documents which were found in the
ComptrOllers office. An effort was
made by the prisoners counsel to rule
them out, but failed.
One OF Keyser's bills, dated July 8,
was produced and was objected to by the
defense, on the ground that the Court
ruled, yesterday, that the defendant,
only as president of the Board of Super
visors, was made auditor, and he ceased
to be president of the Board of Super
visors, July 1st, and, therefore, the
prosecution had no right to charge him
with any act as auditor after that date.
The Judge said that his ruling was that
| if a man is not an officer, dejure, and ne
elects or refuses to perform duty he is
not liable, but where man is an officer,
defacto, he is chargeable for the i'm
proper execution of an assumed duty.
The Judge decided to hold the case over
for discussion.
During the cross examination of Storrs,
Mr.. Peckham suggested, in reference to
the absent documents, that they were
burned, whereupon Mr.. Graham ex-
pressed his disbelief thereof, and said
that he believed he knew who had them.
He contended that the papers lost are
not stolen, and that to sustain the ale
CATION of the indictment, as to their dis
| appearance, it would be necessary to
prove that the papers were in the actual
custody and nominal safe keeping of the
defendants. If that couldnot be proved,
it was immaterial how the papers disap-
peared.
Judge Davis said that the manner of
their loss was immaterial, but the loss
should be proved, in order that the court
might allow secondary evidence of their
| contents.
Mr.. Graham said that the defendant
was not to be placed at the mercy of the
memory or perjury Of any witness As to
the contents of any papers not in his
custody. The prosecution went to show
that he signed fifty or sixty papers,
without his having an opportunity of
proving that they were all forgeries and
the signature not his own.
Judge Davis sad that the argument
was rather directed against the rule I'M
der which secondary evidence is admiss-
able. He would receive the evidence of
the loss, and then decide whether it was
case for secondary evidence. Ad-
| journed.
