A TELEGRAPHER'S ADVENTURE.
While Busy at His Key He Is Taken Captive
by Ghost Armed with a Big Knife.

PITTsBURG, Nov 4-Peter Kennay, employed
as telegraph operator at Ingram station. on the
Pittsburg, Cincinnati & st. Louis railroad, had
an adventure at an early hour this morning that
he will not soon forget He was engaged at his
instrument, when he heard noise as if some
one were trying to open the door, but thought
nothing of it, nor even looked up from his work
until startled by a touch on his coat sleeve. He
turned partly around and, to his horror, saw
tall gaunt figure. dressed in white, with a long
knife in its hand, standing directly ever him.
He cleared the slight railing surrounding his
desk at a single bound but the strange visitor
was between him and the door, and he began
pleading for his life. The spectre made no move
to follow him, except to prevent his escape
by the door, AS the ghostly creature made
no advance. the operator in a measure recovered
his self possession and stood on the defensive in
the furthest corner of the room. The apparition
then seated itself in Kenney's chair before the
telegraph instrument, keeping close watch on
the movements of the operator. They main
tanned the same relative positions for nearly an
hour during which time the trains on the rail
road approaching that point were brought to q
standstill. One or two trains had been stopped
for a signal to 60 ahead The crews of the first
train finally walked up the track to the telegraph
Office to ind out the cause of the delay. when
they discovered the operators predicament and
subdued his captor after desperate struggle.
1t was subsequently learned that the strange
visitor resided at Sheridan station, nearly mile
away is a lunatic, and had escaped from his
home about midnight
