Were Attributed to Supernatural Pow
 CTS.
 From the Philadelphia Times.l
 On Saturday night the members of the Carpenter family heard ghost performing all sorts of capers in the old vacant house which adioins their tenement, in the rear of John Finney's coal yard on. the northeast cor ner of Washington avenue and Passyunk road. The ghostly visitor was first heard clattering around in the lower rooms, shaking the entire building with his ponderous foc5- steps. Then came pause, during which the affrighted Carpenters sat up in bed and, with curdling blood and pimpling skins, awaited further developments The silence was soon broken by the measured tread Of the super natural stranger, and few minutes later they heard him mounting the stairs leading to the second story. The stairs creaked and groaned under the bogie's weight, and he could be heard breathing like a steam engine. Tbis was moro than the Carpenters could stand, aud the entire family left the house and aroused the neighbors, to whom they told their hair raising story, and it was in some degree substantiated by the strange sounds which were waited through the coal yard from the upper part of the haunted dwelling Finally one daring man called for volunteers to explore the house, suggesting as precau- tionary measure the advisability of procuring lanterns before entering A band of courageous HUI lcopOuuOu CO tuS Cd1A and lantern was fetched from neighboring saloon. The front door of the house was locked and barred, and while the explorers were talking about breaking it in MT. Car penter said the back door was wide open, but that it could only be reached by going through the courtyard. The crowd surged into the yard and came out in the yard at- | tached to the haunted house. They advanced l up stairs, and in the second story room were startled to see outlined against the wall a l strange and apparently unearthly form. They stood their ground stoutly, however, and the man with the light walked bodily into the apartment and discovered to the satisfaction | of his comrades and himself that this
 strange figure was that of mule The news l was soon transmitted to the anxious walters
 below and thew swarmed into the place The
 mule belonged in the coal yard, and had dur 1 ing the night left his corral, entered the
 empty house. and in Investigating the prem
 ises clambered up stairs. After finding the ! animal, the next question was how to get | him down stairs again. No one was bolo
 enought to attempt to lead the beast dowr l for fear it would stumble and precipitate it.
 self upon him. The brute was locked in the
 room and remained there until yesterday when 1t was coaxed down stairs by means ot
 8 bait consisting of two heads of green let | tuce tied on the end of fishing pole and | held seductively in front of his nose. The holder of the pole stood safely in the room
 below, and the mule picked his way slowly | to the bottom and was led out of the house.

A Dogs Funeral. TIT.,o~s~ 4I,o C+ T N,7Jo fJ~L1

Nearly year ago a gentleman died in af- fluent circumstances at KirkWood, and left a childless widow. The husband, who never enjoyed the proud distinction of being called 8 father, lavished his surplus affections on 8 fine shepherd dog by the name of Dash This canine was provided for in his masters will by the setting aside of certain house and lot the monthly rent from which was to be appropriated to 'Dash's sole benefit dur Ing his natural life." In this way the dogs days were comfortably provided for, and the gentleman's wife was named as Dash's guard ian. Shortly after her husbands death the lady went to New York to assuage her grief, but she didn't take the dog along. In her absence Dash was taken very sick and 8 telegram informed her of the ami malls affliction. True to the last will and testament of her late husband, she tele- eraphed to employ the most eminent physi- cians for Dash's treatment, which was done by 6 faithful servant. In 8 few days the wires informed her that Dash WAS dead She admitted of no delay but immediately start ed for St. Louis to conduct the obsequies and again act as chief mourner. Arriving here, costly coffin was provided and hearse con- yeyed Dash's remains to Oak Ridge cemetery. At that place they were inferred with due solemnity at the feet of his dead master In the presence of the widow, now in mourning for him. A $500 monument, suitably in scribed stands at the head of the husbands grave, while less pretentious one, costing S15O, rests at his feet to mark the place where Dash lies.

HECK ER7S PERFECT BAKING POWDER.
A FAIR TEST.

TO the Editor of the Journal & Courier:
 Sir:-The contract for supplying the United States government with seventy-fve thousand (75, 5,OOO) lbs. of Baking Powder during the en- suing year has. been awarded to
 Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder,
 ward G. Love, analytical chemist for the government, and recOm- mended by him for it's excellence and because it contained @ higher
 percentage of gas (which means it will make lighter bread and bis cuiG than either the "ROyal'' or the other cream tartar baking powders winch he examined. The samples analysed by Dr. Love were furnished by the government conn missiOners, and were without the manufacturers label or name, and designated with a number known only to the commissioners. 1t will thus be seen that when
 Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder submitted to an impartial test it's superiority is acknowledged, and the popular verdict so emphat- ically expressed in it's favor is fully sustained

 At the Fifth Avenue Hotel on Friday dele gates met from Harvard, Princeton, Colum- bia and Yale to revise the football rules. A proposition to adopt the English Rugby rules was rejected Rule No. 5 has this ad- dition; "No player having received the ball from one of his own side shall put it in his own touch in goal. under penalty of a safety touch" Rule No. has added: ''No sticky or greasy substance can be used on the per sons of the players" Rule Mo- IS is changed to read: "A player may throw or pass the ball in any direction except toward his oppo- nents' goal" Rule No. B has added ''1f in three consecutive runs and downs a team shall not have advanced Q ball five yards, or lost ten, they must give it up to the opposite side at the spot where the fourth down if made. Consecutive means without leaving the hands of the side holding it." Rule No 61 omits the clauses, which free kick cannot score goap' and waving the hands or hat before an adversary shall be considered inter. ference" It is believed that these changes will put a stop to the ''block' game.
