AFTER a GR0sT.
Tne UnpIeasant Experience Of two
Young Goblin. III unaeFs.

The people living in the neighbor
hood of Fourth and Adams streets hav'
been much excited recently over the
presence Of an alleged ghost in the mo
rocoo and leather factory of ex-Council
man Samuel A. Price. For the las
day or two many people have been
talking about it in hushed whispers
and the children have been going tt
bed with the clothing over their heads
His Rhostship when first seen consisted
of a white, spectral figure, which wan
dered around through the empty
building and his wanderings were al
ways accompanied by lurid flashing
lipht which shone from window to
window, now disappearing and anon
breaking forth again like an erratic
will % the wisp.
A few nights ago two men, volun.
teered to 60 into the building and
heard the sractrs in bis nocturnal
playhouse. When they began to talk
vi such things the neighoors stood
aghast, but they sneered at their tim
idity, and, throwing aside all back.
wardntss, armed themselves with q
club apiece. Then when 1t became
dark they entered the building. Taking
up a good position they waited for his
goblinship. Presently his goblinship
came. It was an awful looking object,
drsped in white, and it moved slowly
silently, in all its awe-inspiring mys-
terry toward them.
The men were brave no more. Their
sticks fell from their nerveless grasps
their teeth chartered cold sweat
broke out all over them, and their hair
slowly stiffened up and stood straight
on end like quills of that fretted object
the porcupine. Nearer and nearer
came the spectre, and at length, un-
able to stand it longer, the terror strick.
en- ghost hunters turned and fled, en-
srging into the open air the picture Of
fright, with an awful tale to tell
After that the excitement became
greater, and it only subsidized when il
transpirsd that the ghost was young
practical joke Of the neighborhood. The
young men who were 70 frightened
are now looking for the festive youth

The Philharmonic Club Of. this city
wishes it's passive members to under
stand that If they desire membership
they must go to Thomas & Co.'s book
store and enter their names and that
there are no privileges accorded to them
that are not given to anyone else. Un-
less they present themselves for tickets
their names will be left off, for as soon
as q certain number are recorded the
list will be closed. This order is rem
dered necessary from the fact that the
club has no means of knowing whether
last years members are passive mem
bers for the coming year unless the

REHoBoTH BEACH, Del, Aug 8, $50.
The hejghth of the season attained
amidst such favorable state Of affairs
it may truly be said that never before
hath fortune shone so propitiously on
Rehoboth, as 1t has during the past
few months. The weather, for the
mest part, has been clear and dry, and
there have as yet, been no serious
raids by musQuitos.
Though with less people here than
last year, this season has been very
enjoyable one indeed. The cottages,
OIL the grounds, are all occupied. while
the Bright House has remained COM
fortably filed throughout the season.
Dancing is still carried on as lively as
4ver, with many dress hops interven-
ing. Visitors are arriving continually
at the hotel. DR.. s. Hitch and wife re-
turned to day, after sojourn of a
week at Saratoga, N. Y. Excursions
from the lower part Of the State, to
this place, are quite frequent. The
Milford Cornet Band gave series of
concerts on the Verands of the hotel,
yesterday, and displayed considerable
talent for new band. The bathing is
delightful. We have a host of lady
bathers, Miss Lola Robinson and Misses
Maxwell, Of Wilmington, are cour-
ageous swimmers. Miss Marie Ped
rick Of Philadelphia, is as attractive in
her bathing suit, as her bathing is
bold and skillful.
The storm, yesterday, was quite Sc
we're in this section of the country, but
no damage was done worthy of men,
tion. The most part Of the guests are at
the Bright House, they are comprised of
voung people who seem to favor Reho-
both very much. Services are held in
the new chapel every Sunday. Rev. W.
Stevenson occupied the pupil last Sab
bath. TIE question Of building new
hotel l think is decided. This is the
main improvement needed for the sue
cess of the place and there is not the
slightest doubt but that, in few years,
when the public acknowledge the
worth and many advantages of Reho-
both, it will rank as one Of the first
watering places Of America.

UIlx RAILWAY EXTENSION.
VIA b New Line be BufAt IA Few
Facts About IL.

For some time past the Directors OF
the Wilmington City Railway have had
under consideration the extension ofthe
line. They have not been agitating the
matter very much, but 1t has been Sc
riously talked over, and the Committee
having it in charge are favorably i'm
pressed with the prospect of the ulti-
mate success OF such project. Some
years ago the idea Of extending the line
from Tenth street on: Market, through
Brandywine village and on to River.
view cemetery was in high favor, but
II has been abandoned, and the Com
pany has turned its attention to the
more populous part Of town.
Several routes are talked Of, but the
one that seems most likely to be adOp.
ted is to branch off from the present
line Of track at Front and Market Sts.,
ont Front street to Madison, up Madison
to Fourth and out Fourth to the city
limits. Whether under the preseLt
plan the line will terminate there or
will run back into town through a more
northern district is not known at this
early day. The matter is almost in
embryo as yet and Of course the plans
are not complete.
Said member Of the Company To a
REPUBLICAN reporter yesterday: II
have not the least idea but that such
an extension would pay and that 1t
would greatly help to build up our
present line as well, to say nothing Of
the immense benefit 1t would do the
CITY,"
"How about the onos-talked.of route
to Riverview Cemetery ?"
81 do notssthink the time has yet
come for that to be seriously thought
OF, as you see the terminus OF the
road would not be at point where
much travel could be secured for ma
ny years to come. And then q great
thing 10 be contended against is the
high hill on Market street and the
hills on the Brandywine. Indeed that
has been considerable drawback to
the railway. Wilmington Hills kill
horses. Here we have to use two
horses, when in Philadelphia, with
the same amount Of passenger traffic,
they only use one. The plan drumming
out Front, Madison and Fourth streets
il the most tenable at present. The
road will run through populous part
of the town and its terminus will tap a
district where the town is bound to
spread, and where in few years al
the furthest q horse railway would be
an absolute necessity. Build the rail-
way and that district will be built up
in less than no time with fine resi-

our Acknowledgements for basket Of

Mr.. T. knows how to raise good fruit,
and what he does not know about a

Horse Fru1t.

Horses are very fond OF water melons
and we think they should share every
load they haul. They need refreshing
with the cool sweet juices just as much
as we do, if not more, for they work
harder. Grain is heating, and at all
times of the year they should have
plenty OF fruit to avoid feverish con-
dition of the blood.
A man often wonders why his horse
dies suddenly, but the wonder is they
can live so long the way they are fed.
We hope this little reminder will result
in energetic action on the part Of horse
owners and that melons and apples
will disappear with happy rapidity
down the throsts Of every horse IN
Christendom in all the days OF the
round year and horse doctors become q
name almost unknown. 4. W.
