A Famous Ghost Story.

Spedlin' Tower. the grim old castle
in Dumfrieshire, Scotland, on the south
west bank of the Amman, is the scene of
a ghost story of great local fame, and
supported by excellent traditional au-
thority. In the time of Charles II, Sir
Alexander Jardine confined in the dun
geon of this castle q miller named Port
eous, who was suspected of arson.
Absent mindedly carrying off the keys
of the vault. the miller was starved to
death. No sooner was he dead than
his ghost began to torment the house,
hold. But Sir Alexander procured a
black-letter bible, and so long as that
remained in the house the ghost could
not move out of the vault where Port
eous had died. Here its screams were
frequently heard vt night. "Let me
out, let me out" it would cry, 'for I'm
dyin' o. hunger.n When the family
repaired to u mansion, Jardine
Hall, OF the other side of the river, the
bible was left behind to keep the rest
less spirit in order. Once, however, it
was sent to Edinburgh to be rebound,
when the ghost crossed the river and
played such mad pranks in the new
house-put the lord and lady out of bed,
| etc.-that the bible was sent for at
once. Early in the present century,
however, the bible was taken't to Jardine
Hall without any unpleasant circum-
stances.

TO MAKE a TENT,
Some Information For the Boys Who
Are Going TO Camp Out.


Are Going TO Camp Ont.
Boys always begin to think about
camping out equipments as soon as
spring fairly sets in, says the Chicago
Tribune. The most important thing to
provide for such an expedition is tent,
aud as it costs a good deal of money to
have one made to order, perhaps the
boys who intend to spend a few days in
the woods this summer would like to
| know how to make one themselves, and
at a triting cost.
Buy nine yards of good, stout, yard
wide cotton cloth and cut into three
strips of three yards each. Sew these
strips together securely by overlapping,
and you will then have a piece three
yards square. Make a solution of twelve
ounces of lime and five ounces of alum
in three gallons of water, and soak the
cotton in it for a day. Rinse it in warm
r%ain-water and stretch in the sun to
dry. 1t will then be waterproof.
Having reached your camping-out
place, cut two poles eight feet long,
each with a fork at one end. Sink the
other ends in the ground about a foot,
and beat the earth well to keen them
firmly in place. These poles Should be
about eight feet apart. Now cut an
other pole about nine feet long and put
it on top of your other two, resting in
the forks. Cut two more poles ten feet
long for the sides of your frame, resting
n end of each pole on the cross pole
and the other end on the ground.
Stretch the canvas over the frame and
tack it to the poles. You can make the
sides of your proof with the boughs of
cedar and other trees.
This is the simplest and least expen-
sive tent you can have, and Will answer
your purposes fully. The tent, how
ever, would be a little more roomy and
comfortable if you would put up "A sec
ond frame in the rear similar to that in
front, say two feet high, and stretch the
canvas over that and thence TO the
ground.
Select sloping ground to put your tent
on, SO that if it rains the water will
readily run off: and also dig a little
ditch around the tent with an outlet
leading down the incline. AS the front
OF the tent will be o~pen-unless you
choose to provide enough canvass to
close it-you had better place it with
the face towards the north or northwest,
for storms, if you have any, viii prob
ably come from the south or the south
west.
The rude hut des~cribed-for it is lit
tie ieise-will no doubt seen a timsy
shelter. TO those'who have never oceu-
pied one, but for perfect rest and the
'~soundest Of sound sleeping you will find

I'm the Wrong Tree.

He had on the latest style of clothes, but
he was young, so very, very young and

man. He travelled for a very large house, of
course, and he sold more goods in a day
than most men did in two weeks-in his
mind, The older man with him had met him
II the depot and they had struck up a speak
ing acquaintance. The train came, they got
aboard, our young friend threw back a seat
with that easy grace that only an old man
on the road doesn't assume They seated
themselves and Johnny Fresh said

On the 10th instant Vineyard & Schneider
received a telegram from Ponder, Ncb., an
nouncing the sad Intelligence of the death of
MIR. r.. Il. Norlaker. one of their popular
travelling men. Mr.. Nurlakor was out
bathing with MIR. Sherman Frse5o and three
other companions, all youu Z travelling men,.
The circumstances of tha sal accident as
told by one of the party, are about as fol-
lows: Erecse and Myers, two OF tho men,
had swan across tho straAm, and when they
looked back MIR. Nordaker was splashing
around in the shallow water. Myers called
to hun and asked him If he could swim. He
replied that he could not swim
very far, and at the same time
other side of the stream. He swan along
very nicely for a distance and then began to
tired water as If resting. The rest of us,
thinking he was a good swimmer, had gone
on and when we looked back again we saw
HIM, as we thought, diving. There was
something strange in his actions and we
swan toward him as rapidly as possible.
Before we could reach him he had gone down
and we could find no trace of him on account
of the deep and muddy condition of the wa
ter, made 80 by recent rains. The body was
finally found and shipped to Dunlap for in
torment.
The deceased was born in Norway Sep
tember 10, 1865. He came to this
county lour years ago anu INcu
for a year at Dunlap. From that place
he came to Omaha and worked a year for
Garfield. He entered the employ of Vine
yard & Schneider about two years ago and
soon went on the road for them, and was n
trusted and industrious employee of that firm
until the day of this fateful accident. He
leaves a father and mother in Norway, who
will learn with great sorrow of his death; a
brother and sister IN Dunlap, Ia, and a
brother in this city, who clerks for G. G.

The MILEAGE Books,

A writer in the Merchant Traveller, reply
ing TO an article in the Milwaukee Sentinel,
makes the following presentation of the
mileage book abuse among drummers:
The abuses to which the thousand mile
ticket system is liable nave rendered them
almost a nuisance to the railway world.
They are, OF course, invariably sold al a
considerable less rate per mile than the
local Taro fGc travel over the railroads, and
however closely they are guarded so that
people who purchase them are, by the terms
of the tickets, the only ones entitled to use
them, yet it is impossible for railroads to
employ force enough to keep INSCRIPTIONS
persons from abusing the privileges pur-
chased in the extra number of miles
paid for at one time. TIL result is that quite
a proportion of the business community, who
do not purchase mileage tickets at the re-
duced rate, yet get the benefit of a reduction
on the local fare they would have to pay be-
tween poluts where they desired to travel,
by means of intermediate parties handling
these tickets and furnishing them at a rate
midway between the local tariff fare and the
rate per mile at which the mileage tickets
were sold, and thus derive a support from
the use of such tickets which benefits 10
traveller or railway. A class of dealers has
grown up in the country which furnishes no
business whatever to the railway companies
yet derives a profit from the manner in which
the railway companies do their business, in
attempting to afford a discrimination between
persons who travel for business and profit
considerably during a specified time, and those
who travel less during such a period.
