FRIGHTENED OUT OF HER W1s.-A
terrible sequel to an hours amusement
telling ghost stories lately occurred al
the Surgical Institute, at indianapolis.
A room full of young ladies, patients Of
the Institute, amused and excited each
other by stories of terrific apparitions,
hobgoblins, ghosts, etc The gas had
been turned, either Intentionally or by
accident. In the climax of a vivid
story one of the girls threw her shawl
over a trembling comrade. A little
rustic and strange conduct was noticed.
Wnen light was brought, the fact was
revealed that the poor girl was hope
lessly insane. She has remained SO
ever since, yet hopes are entertained of
her recovery.

while the different hacks and hotel run

Company awaiting the arrival of the
Astoria boat, some alteration was in

Tom Bradley, who is well known in the
CITY as an industrious man, and who
was attending to his business as rum
er for the St. Charles Hotel. 1t appears
that some short time since words of an
unpleasant character passed between
the two, and on this. their first meeting
since the difficulty. Kulper wanted Tom
to retract, using threatening language
to enforce compliance, and drawing and
cooking a pistol to show his earnestness.
Notwithstanding this demonstration.
Bradley refused to accede to his demand

W When go 10 the country to visit
my relations, writes m Quad" the
spare bed rises up before my lmagina-
ton days before start, and shiver as
l remember how cold and gravelike the
sheets are. put off the visit as long
as possible, solely on account of that
spare bed. I don't like to tell them
that 1 had rather sleep on picket fence
than to enter that spare room and creep
into that spare bed, and so they know
nothing of my sufferings. The spare
bed is always as near mile and half
from the rest of the beds as it can be
located. It's either up stairs at the
head of the hall, or off in the parlor.
The parlor curtains have not been
raised for weeks; everything is as prim
as an old maids bonnet, and the bed is
as square and true as if it had been
made up to the carpenters rule. No
matter whether it be summer or winter,
the bed is like ice, ana it sinks down in
way to make one shiver. The sheets
are slippery clean, the pillow-slips
rusted like shl ouds, and one dare not
stretch his leg down for fear kicking
against tombstone. One sinks down
until he is lost in the hollow, and foot
by foot the prim bed posts vanish from
sight. He is worn out andssleepy, but
lie knows the rest of the family are so
far away that no one could hear him if
he should shout for an hour. and this
makes him nervous. He wonders if
any one died in that room, and straight
way he sees the faces of dead persons,
hears strange noises, and presently
feels chill galloping up aud down his
back. Did any one ever pass COM
Portable night in spare bed? No mat
ter how many quilts and spreads cover
him, he could not get warm; snd if he
accidentally fell asleep it was to awake
with start. under the impression that
a dead man was pulling his rose. 1t
will be days and weeks before he re-
covers from the impression, and yet he
must suffer in silence, because the spare
bed was assigned to him in token OF
esteem and affection.

HORRIBLE DEATH.--On Wednesday OF
last week, says a Clyde letter in the
Rochester Democrat, one of those hor-
rible accidents that happen only once in
hundreds of years, and by which a
human being is unexpectedly, in the
twinkiing of an eye, hurried into eter-
nifty, occurred on the farm of the
Widow Kettles, in the town of Junius,
a few miles sonth of here. Parties
were engaged in threshing grain, and
at the time of the accident were thresh-
ing loose oats, and Theodore Bodine
was feeding the machine. In some un-
explained way coil of fence wire had
been brought in with the grain, and,
unseen by the pitcher, was pitched upon
the platform and showed into the ma
chine with the oats. One end of the
coil was caught by the rapidly revolv-
ing cylinder, and the other end in a
very mysterious way, wound around
Mr.. Bodine's neck, and in a shorter
time than it is possible for one to con-
ceive, the unfortunate mans head was
drawn into the machine, torn into atoms
and carried out with the straw, while
portions of the brains passed through
the separator and came out of the spout
below with the grain. 1t was some
tune before the other workmen realized
the nature of the dreadful accident.
Mr.. Bodine was seen leaning over the
platform in front Of him, bnt his posi-
ton being somewhat elevated. it was
not discovered that his head was in the
machine. aid it was only when blood
and brains were seen coming out of the
spout with the threshed grain that the
man attending to that part of the work
called the attentions of the others to
the fact that something awful had taken
place. We understand the unfortunate
man leaves wife and two children to
mourn his terrible death.

IT WORKS That WAY. - Yesterday
while fifteen or twenty men were sitting
in saloon at the ferry-dock, toasting
their shins and lamenting the hard
times man opened the door and shout
ed:
"Who wants work at twelve shillines
a day?"
Not person made answer. Some
shut their eyes and pretended to be
asleep, and others were busy looking
out of the windows. In about five min
utes apother man opened the door and
shouted:
"Who wants an easy place in the
City Hall?''
"I do" was chorussed in bones thai
made the decanters jar, and every man
jumped to his feet.
So do l." said the man, as he shut
the door and walked away.
