Haunted.

There has been a rumor of a ghost
story in town for some days and by
persistent enquiry THE Sun has at
last been able to locate the haunts
of the ghosts. Last Saturday night
engine No. 40 was run into the en-
CINE house at this place. with the
appearance of being all right. but
during the night those present heard
slight tapping in the garnet of the
engine house. AS that part Of the
building is tightly boarded, there
was no chance for person to be con-
cealed, but as the tapping continued
a thorough search was made but with
out discovering the cause of the un-
natural noise. After this had contin-
ued some time, the bell OF the engine
commenced to ring. An investiga-
tion by those present, resulted in the
discovery that the bell-cord remain
ed nletionless, but the clapper Of tie
bell moved slowly back and forth
causiNg the bell to toll. This contin-
ued for a few minutes, when raps
were heard on one of the large drive
wheels, then in front of the engine,
after which, louder noise was made
| in front of the fire box. By this
| time the spectators to these singular
proceedings lrad vacated the engine
house and left his ghostship undis-
puted possession, but before going a
thorough search was made of the
premises, but without solving the
mystery.
It will be remembered that engine
No. 40. was the engine that was in
use at the time of the ditching of the
gravel train between Willmar and
Atwater, at which time engineer
Floody and several laborers were
killed, and the fireman and several
others were wounded.
