There have been but two persons ar
rested by tho police force in three or four
days, and they were only drunk. We
are getting almost perfect in Cairo and
we attribute the great change in our moral
condition to spiritual power. If Mrs.
HOLES could only DO induced to remain
with US year, within that time we would
cease to have any use for calsboose or jail.
One of Mrs. Holle-' ghosts broke
loose from her Keeping Thursday night
aud nearly frightened our colored friend
Jimmy Washington to death. 1t ap-
pesred 10 him on Twentieth street n the
shape OF ram, and gave him strong proof
by butting process tina. it had material
lied to some purpose. When Jimmy got
up the ghost had vanished.
AT "Our Saloon" Eighth street, be-
tween Commercial avenue and Ohio levee,
the hungry may fad all kinds OF edibles -
herring, sausage, cheese, &c, and tho
thirsty the fnest of wines and liquors,
fresh lager beer, and the best brands Of
cigars. Attentive bAr-keepers are always
on hand; aud tho lunch got daily, at 10
clock, Jundsys included, is as fine As
any IN the city. Call around. 1922 Il
The more they say OF it the more
wonderful they declare it to bs. Of
course the speaking Is done In dark
room, and 1. may be. Mrs. HOLES does
the talking, but from whence or whom
does she derive the Information she sp-
pears 10 have concerning incidents in the
lives Of the people who sit at her seances
information no one could get even from
them And then the naturalization Is
done In q room lighted by lamps, and
friends "dead aud gone are recognized
are spoken to and speak. This is what
they.-!he seancers-ssy.
Mitchell & MeGafey, attorneys at
Law, writing from st. Louis to Chief OF
Police McHale, say: "John Hasmudy
complains that he was arrested by you on
Thursday night and detained in prison
two days. After this he was released and
ordered to leave your city, and all this, he
sIys, without reasonable cause Will
you be kind enough TO inform US Of the
grounds.of your action towards this man,
and whether he is forever prohibited from
coming within your boundaries again ?"
No such man was arrested, either by the
Chief of Police or any other member Of
the force.
