The Goodrich Steamship Company is
building another new steamer. It is to be
the equal in size, speed and equipments of
the City of Racine. What's the matter
with having her named the City of Keno

Mr.. Jerry McCarron, the night watch
man at the Scotford Manufacturing Works,
asks the TELEGRAPH COURIER to correct
misstatement made in last Sundays Inter
Ocean. He says that the correspondent for
that paper was, i'll common with many 9TH
ers, misinformed in regard to the origin of
the stories relating to the Scotford ghost,
and that said wild and woolIy yarns never
"had their origin in the fact that the night
watchman heard sounds he could not ac-
count for one night, and remarked that the
spirit of young Costello, who was killed
there must be haunting the scenes of his
former labors" Mr. McCarron says that
the remark contained in the above quota
ton from the columns of the Inter Ocean,
and for which he is given credit, were never
made by him; that he has never lost any
ghosts; that he has never been out on a
still hunt after spooks or assisted Mr.. Scot
ford in "laying spirits" with cooked pis-
toll, and he trusts that superstitious people,
especially reporters, will go off somea here
and quiet their nerves with Moxie and
give him a rest.
