Haunted House in Cleveland
STRANGE Visions SEEN IN THE RESIDENCE
OF SHIPHERD, THE SUICIDE

A sensational story is afoat concerning the
stone front mansion on Prospect Street
Cleveland. Ohio. formerly owned and occupi-
ed by James Il Shipherd, the mlliner who
committed suicide while under sentence to
the workhonse. The account is here set
down a. 1t WAS given by a reputable gentle
man, and no attempt is made to explain it or
vouch for anything ones reason would
reject. You know" said he, ''that Shipherd
was head miliner in a large establishment;
that he was caught taking money for his own
use, and that he hanged himself while under
sentence to the workhouse. He then owned
and lived in that house over there, and going
to its garnet one morning, threw a rope over
a rafter, mounted trunk, and swung himself
into eternity. The house was sold, and put
into the market for a tenant. Among
the things left in the residence was this
old trunk. Some DAYS after the sign was
pnt up man and his wife called to look at
the place. 1t was late in the afternoon, and
the kitchen and parlors had been thoroughly
examined. just as they were about to ascend
the stairs the gentleman thought he heard a
groan. Leaving his wife at the foot of the
stairs, he followed the noise On reaching
he garnet he was Mortified to see man hang
ing from the ratters. He thought il would
be suicide, and ran forward to cut the man
down. when the whole thing vanished. His
wife met him at the foot of the stairs, and no.
ticing his pallor asked If he was ill. He made
some excuse, and after entering his carriage
informed his wife that the residence would
hardly do. Soon after another man. accom-
psnisd by male friend, went to look at the
house. They were examining the rooms.
when one was attracted by sound as if some
one was walking overhead. They went on
up stairs. and on reaching the garnet saw the
form of q man sitting on the trunk with his
back 20 them. The next instant he was gone
They examined the trunk and the garrett
thinking trick was being PLAYED on them,
but could find no trace of any person. A
hired man Of one sf the neighbors is said to
have had similar experience. dread has
extended through the neighborhood. There
has been so much quiet talk that the children
in passing go by on the other side of the
street, the same feeling being held by many
older folks. The house still stands without a
tenant"

An Undue sandwich.

II is given out that representatives of the
democratic party at Washington have decided
upon arrangements for the Inauguration OF
Mr.. Cleveland which they believe Sill give
general satisfaction. II is interesting to note
the prominent feature Of these arrangements.
Mr.. Cleveiand's immediate organ at the State
capital, the Albany Argus, describes it as
follows:
Its proposed that there shall be in the inaugural
procession battalion Of 500 veterans Of the late
civil war from every State 10 the Union, and each
battalion shall carry the flag Of ts state and the
National colors. General Hancock Is spoken Of for
grand marshal. and his staff is 10 be selected from
the most gallant soldiers of the hate war. in equal
numbers, from each army. The battaliOns will be
sandwlched in togetherthat Ia. first one from the
North and then one from the South. Such spec
tacle would be presented by bataons of veterans
from all Of the - States, carrying the flag Of their
State. well that Of the United States, has never
been Witnessed. and it is urged that it would be the
highest possible DEMONSTRATION sOf the unity and
patriotism Of America.
We cana0t quite understand how this sand
wichng would be 1.-THE highest demonstration
Of the unity and patriotism of America" 1t
would seem to be rather a pretty good dem
onstration of democracy's gratitude to the
Solid South. When treason has come to be
regarded az commendable as patriotism, when
the lost cause ranks with the cause that tr-
umphed, when "Dixie's Land is held to be
as good national song as Yankee Doodle.
when the services of the boys in gray are
eulogized along with the services of the boys
in blue, then such an Inauguration sandwich
may please the palate of a patriotic people.
Ii is gratifying to note that the sandwich is
not to be placed upon the Inauguration bill of
fare without protest from the more level
headed of our democratic brethren. Here is
the Buffalo Courier denouncing the sandwich
as ian absurd proposition" and sensibly argu-
ing that rebel soldiers should not receive
official recognition as rebels" In taking this
tone the Courier is not making itself solid
with the Solid South for whose qualification
the sandwich was undoubtedly projected
Nevertheless il is to be hoped that 1t will
persist in its war upon the sandwich, in the
interest of the fitness of things. But if it is
ultimately decided that the sandwich must be
served up, let the original design be improved
upon SO as to provide that Cleveland shall
attend the Inauguration ceremonies with his
arm clasped lovingly around the waist of
ex-President Jefferson Davis.
