The New Egyptian Force.

The Cairo correspondent of the London
Standard says of the grave question OF pre-
pairing a force, under British officers, to pre-
serve the peace in Egypt: at is not as vel
known whether the Indian government will
authorize the recruitment of native Mussul
mans, who would unquestionably form the
best material which could be obtainable, but
it is thought that an objection may possibly
be raised on the score that, after their tern
of service, they might return to India inocu
lated with the Moslem fanaticism so preva
lent there. As our Mshommedan troops die
not, however, suffer from contact with the
fanatical Afghans, and have fought on oul
side against Mahommedan States, it ii
hoped that this objection will not be
considered as valid, especially as al
army composed of men whose relatives arr
in India, would be far more amenable tC
British officers than any others would be
Failing India, believe that suitable re
cruiting ground will be found among the
Arabs Of the Persian gulf and Muscat, whenct
some of the native States of India have fol
centuries drawn their best troops. Thes'
would not be altogether alien mercenaries
as in religion and language they are akin
to the fellaheen, but are a far nobler and
more warlike race. They have friendly
feeling 10 England and Euglishmen. Sir
Salar Jung has, at Hyderabad, disciplined
regiment Of Arabs, which is considered by
our officers as being the best regiment In the
service of any Indian native prince"

GHOSTS In GOTHAM
Mysterious Doings in an Apartment

the Other World.
Policemen Driven to Despair by Unseen
Enemies-Spooks and Spirit
Broad Day.

The New York World publishes the follow
ing remarkable narrative. The occurrences
detailed were witnessed by number OF repu-
table persons in that city, and the accuracy
of the story can be vouched for, the editor OF
the World having been put in possession OF
the names and addresses of the principal
parties concerned. The present narrator OF
the incidents is a professional gentlem an
well known in Harlem, and il q man OF the
highest character. The family vexed by
the demonstrations live in his immediate VI
cinity. They are persons of good repute
and are loath to attribute the phenomena to
the influence of unseen spirits. The health
of one of the female members of the family
has suffered severely in consequence OF the
shock to her nervous system. The house
which is new brick building, is situated II
the northern part of the city. 1t may be re,
marked that the policemen who were called
in at the time became quite dsmoralized by
what they saw and heard, and an Eng lIsf
detective, who was allowed at his own re
quest to witness the demonstrations, rs h'
had had much experience in similar cases
could form no theory as to their cause, ant
found his most vigilant efforts to explain
them utterly bsffied.

additional protection. In four counties Of
that State there is invested capital OF al
