The Mysterious Bombnrdment OF Mrs

The Mysterious Bombn rdment OF Mrs.
O'CRlIaghnn's House in UniontoVvn.
A mysterious case, which has bafIled the
skill of the police, is reported from Union
town. The inhabitants of that little "burg "
regard the transactions as ghostly in the
extreme, and are trying to find some way
TO account for them. 1t appears from
the statements of policemen aud others
that about o'clock every afternoon
the residence of Mrs. OCallaghan
widow with three children, near Douglass
hail. on the Insane Asylum road, is bonn
barded with stones thrown by mysterious
hands. Sergt. McCathran, of tho substation
at Anacostia, finally determined to discover
the perpetrators of the deed if possible, and
with that object in view took four policemen
yesterday and concealed them in the sur
rounding thickets The "cops" played the
role of pckets we'll, and remained as
quiet as mice. About five minutes after
their concealment large stone came whiz-
zng through the air and struck Widow
OCallaghan's house with great force. Then
another and another, in rapid succession,
until their rapid bangs" sounded like mus
kerry during n battle. At this point the
policemen emerged from their hiding places,
and secured the neighborhood, the stone
throwing continuing meanwhile, but no trace
of human beings was discovered within range
They remained about the promises fully three
hours, and finally retired, satisfied in their
own minds that the stones had been thrown
by some agency which they could not dis
cover nor understand.
Lieut.. Greer, of the eighth precinct, was
asked about the matter last night by REPUB-
LICAN reporter He said the occurrence was
