He Saw a Ghost

CLEVELAND, January 10.-About 8
o'clock last Friday morning Mrs. Emily
Frayne, a widow, of Hamilton, Ont,
who had come to Cleveland to visit her
sister, who resided in block on Pros
pect Street, died very suddenly. Frank
Lamb, fresco painter, aged 33, who
occupies apartmt nts adjoining those in
which Mrs. Frayne died, relates re
markable story. He says between 2
and o'clock on the morning in ques-
ton he was awakened by something,
and looking across the room he saw a
lady sitting on the lounge about four
feet from tie bed. What do you
want2" he asked. Raising her right
hand the lady said, Hush, hush, and
then she disappeared. Lamb IS a
disbeliever in ghosts and he at
once made search of the room ano
examined the lock OF the door. He
found that the door was securely fast
ened, and getting into bed he lay for ten
minutes thinking about the strange &C.
currence. Suddenly, the clothing on
his bed and the tick were tumbled of
on the floor. by some unseen power, and
he found himself on the floor. Being
angry by this time, Lamb made another
search of the room, without finding any
body. He then opened the door, and
as heidi so Mrs. Hadden, sister Of
Mrs. Frayne, came from her room into
the hall, saying, MY sister is dead. !"
Lamb declares that he was not excited,
and that he was perfectly sober. He
cannot account for the strange occur
renee. Other people in the room who
heard Lamb fall, also left their rooms.
and they corroborate his story as to the
coincidence with Mrs. Frayne's death
The p coroner has decided that the
woman's death was caused by heart
disease.

POST M MEETINGS.
How to Make Them Attractive.

To THE EDITOR: | notice in your issue of
the past week an editorial upon the subject of
" How to have large attendance ut Post meet
ings." This is matter | have given a great
deal of attention to, and | sum it all up in this
one thing: the Post Commander must have
his thinking cap" on and be at work all the
time The great trouble with most Command
ers is simply this: after election they think
and if a motion is made to appoint d Committee
on Entertainment, put the question and ap-
point the committee and let them do all the
work. Now, here is where the great mistake
is made. \ Commander must see that the work
is done. What is everybody's business is no.
body's business" and the consequences are the
work is either half done or not at all. Let
Post Commanders get rid of the idea that they
are simply to preside at the meetings. They
must put their shoulders to the wheel and lay
out the work.
Ransom Post No. 131, Department of Mis-
souri,, has now 151 members on its roll and at
all our meetings the attendance is exceedingly
large and great interest is manifested. Why?
Simply this: the members all know that at
every meeting they will be well repaid for the
effort made in going to the hall. Papers are
read, songs are sung, war anecdotes are related,
speeches made, etc, and interesting personal
experiences are told, and this is what brings
the boys out. Every member of the GAR
ought to copy after that glorious old comrade,
Gen W. T. Sherman. He never misses meet
ing if he is in the city. He is always on hand,
and by his presence he instils a feeling of
that should be an example for others.

THE HANCOCK FUND.
Appeal Of the LOYAL legion for Subscriptions.

To The People of the United States:
The Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the
United states was organized mt the close of the
great rebellion by commissioned officers who with

The late Gen. Hancock was for many years Com
mander of the Pennsy lvania Conlmandery. and Mt
the time OF his death, Commander in Chief of the
Order.
The Pennsylvania Commandery, prompted by
love for its dead Commander. proposes to do what
ii can to increase The fund being raised for his
widow. Its members realize how few they i'll
numbers and how limited their means to properly
perform this duty. The Commandery has there
fore decided to appeal to all Americans who revere
the memory of the great soldier, the good and noble
man, to assist IT in placing his widow and those
depending upon him i'll comfort
Let us not forget his glorious and invaluable
vice TO the country Ill her darkest days how he
freely shed his blood the decisive battlefield of
the war; how he gave his whole life to the service
of his country, and dying, left her whom he loved
SO well TO the care of his countrymen.
We feel confident that our citizens will not
be slow to pay part of the debt they owe to his
memory in assisting the companions of this Order
to accomplish the object so near the hearts of those
who served with him in the same great cause that
has made this powerful, united and happy nation
to-day.

A New Anechnfe of IinenIn

President Lincoln could not understand why
Gen. Mcclellan was SO bent upon certifying
Washington on the north side and asked for an
explanation.
Gen. Mcclellan replied: why, Mr.. Presi-
dent, according to military science it is our du-
ty to guard against every possible or SUPPOSE
bic contingency that may arise. For example,
if under any circumstances, however fortui;0us,
the enemy By any chance or freak. should q
last resort get in and behind Washington in his
efforts TO capture the city, why, there the fort
is to defend it."
Yes, that's so, General, said the President;
"the precautiOn is doubtless 4 wise one, and I'm
glad 20 get so clear an explanation, for it re-
minds me of an interesting question once dis
cussed for several weeks in our lyceum, or moot
court. at Springfield, Ill, soon after L began
reading law
ALI" says Gen. Mcclellan, what was that
question, Mr.. President?'
"The question was" Mr.. Lincoln replied,
"'Why does man have breasts p" and he added,
that after many evenings debate the question
was submitted to the presiding judge, who
wisely decided. "That if under any circum-
stances, however fortuitous, or by chance or
freak, no matter of what nature or by what
cause, man should have baby, there would
be the breasts to nurse it"

thought that the Chicago party had again

that the latter will be settled by arbitration
Transcontinental matters IN the meantime

The Northern Pacific forfeiture had no eff
feet upon the stock, its influence having
been discounted. There was considerable
movement among special stocks to-day,
and their prices made material advances.
The buying to-day, however, has been al
most entirely by the Chicago party aud
their following In this city.
The market soon gathered strength and
activity, and prices rose almost without
