1t Makes Things Lively in New York
Town.
New YORK, May 9.-A ghost is creating
some excitement in the town of New Ut
recht, but unlike most ghosts this one is
said to be living person. On New VI
recht lane, in the village of New Utrecht,
close to the old stone Reformed Church is a
small plot of ground. A two.story cottage
stands back from the road in clump OF
trees. The cottage is owned BY the Rev.
Hugh Smith Carpenter, and was formerly
occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. George Barry
Wall The tragic death of Mr.. Wall at the
hands of his wife, who is now on the dram
attic stage as Miss Lizzie Mccall, is re-
membered.
Mrs. Wall shot her husband and was ar
rested and subsequently discharged from
custody the jury finding that the shooting
was accidental After the shooting the
house remained vacant for about year.
Last spring it was rented to Mr.. r. c.
Mclaughlin. the Secretary of the Cotton
Exchange New York. Mr.. Mclaughlin S
family consists of himself, wife, three grown
mp daughters and two sons The young
laUleS hau nearO OF the SnOOuIsg duIdN, anu
during the first few nights they remained in
the house, occupied room in which they
were assured the shooting had Not taken
place. Subsequently they stated at the
breakfast table that they had seen ghosts in
their bedroom during the previous night.
A friend who was present asked to look at
their sleeping room. He was accorded this
privilege. aud then told the young ladies
that they were occupying the very room in
which the shooting had taken place.
During the last few weeks all the men,
bers ofthc family claim to have seen ghosts
of various sizes and descriptions. Gne
night last week after the family had retired,
IA loud knocking was heard at the front
door. The noise aroused the inmates, and
the entire family decended the stairs, armed
With bootiackS, hammers, tOngs and ShOvels
When the front door was opened nothing
was to be seen except the large goat which
was asleep on the front door step. The
family, with trembling steps, then returned
to their rooms.
Mrs. Mclaughlin last night heared a
queer noise up stairs, and being plucky
woman walked up stairs to ascertain the
cause. She stated that when she arrived at
the head of the stairs she saw the ghost Of
Mr.. Wall leaning over the bannister.

CONCLUSION OF THE HORKHEINIER
CASE.

The judicial Investigation of the case
.or Mr.. HogKENER, who was arres,-
ed by the r,-v police on charge of violating
the city ordinance providing against idlers
lettering on the street has given our people
au opportunity 70 discuss the ordinance in
question 81, we'll aS the duties of police
force A, the evidence tended to show that
in Mr IoaSglvER'S case there was no viola
ton of the Municipal law and his acquittal
thereon 'y the Municipal Court ends the
matter 50 far as he is concerned.
The ordinance Is an old one and was evi
IDENTITY adopted for a good purpose \
lcastits wisdom has never. heretofore, been
called in question. The streets are public
ihoroughfareS and it is the duty Of the ci:y
authorities 10 see that they are kept opcn
for public travel \ band of idle loirer
can cougrrgatr ON the sidewalk and a. et
frctually blockade travel as ifa wall wIS
built across rhe thoroughG,rc In such a
case /; i the manifest duty Of policeman
to enforce the law and preserve the rights
Of the public
On the other hand if two or more
persons. accidrnlly meet on the street
and stop To discuss business, or if a gentle
man or lady should stop on crossing to
pwait the coming Of public CONVEYANCE,
ss was the case with Mr.. HoEEHEINER then
be-or she can not be regarded aS IAN idle
loiterer" and does not come within the pro
fision Of the municipal statute
The trouble with the police is in knowing
shcrc to discriminate between a real and
IN imaginary violation of city ordinance
and consequently policeman should he a
man of good Judgment, sound discretion,
and gcntiGty Of manner.
On the other hand it is the duty Of every
good citizen To uphold the legal authorities
IN an honest effort to enforce the laws that
ihe city government has enacted for the
pro,ccGou of its people
