MARTINS FERRY, O., January 27.-This
place has a real ghost, or at least quite
number of persons are willing to stake their
regulations on it. Within the past few
weeks several people have been badly
frightened by his or her ghostship, and one
of them, Mrs. Harry Ribold, is il very
serious condition as a result of some of the
terrifying manifestations of the ghost.
A large two-story brick house, corner of
Second and Monroe streets. is the place
where the strange apparition appears. Since
the death of the former occupant of the
house, August Rothermund, in September
last, no person has been able to live in the
house on account of the strange noises in the
dead of night. The first person to notice the
ghost was daughter-in-aw of the dead man.
One night she was alone in the house when she
saw and heard the water pitcher IN her room
dance in the bowl. A few nights later the
ghost walked up the front stirway, through the
hall and down the back stairs, the footsteps
being distinctly heard. Since that time fire.
quent Visitations have been made, and the
Rothermunds moved out of the house. The
next family, that of John Morgan, sheet
roller at the Etna mill, had the same expert
ence. Upon several occasions the covers were
pulled off the bed in which Mrs. Morgan was
sleeping.
Mrs. Morgan says the ghost has played on the
organ, the window shutters have swung open,
the water pitcher has danced, locked doors
opened and many other strange demonstrations
have taken place. The Morgans quit the house
and family named Ribold moved in. They
had the same experience as their predecessors.
Mrs Ribold, who was in delicate health was so
badly frightened by the strange midnight visi-
tor that she is now in a critical condition. Sew
eral other persons say they are willing to testify
to the above. All superstitious people in the
neighborhood are very much agitated. A
crowd of men are talking of lying. in wait for
the ghost and capturing it if possible.

BEAVER FALLS, PA, January N.-The clos
ing of the Whitla Glass Works this morning
by the Sheriff was not much of a surprise to
the people here. as it was well known that the
concern has been struggling under financial
difficulties for some time Owing to the failure
in gas the furnace had to be changed to use
coal, and this necessitated big outlay of
money. Several assessments were made, and
finally the small stockholders refused to pay
any more, and those who had advanced money
to tide the concern over its difficulties issued
on it to protect themselves. The names of the
parties who issued are w. A. McCoOl,

failure is $4,000.
One hundred and seventy-five men and boys
are thrown out of employment. The works are
in splendid running order, and have a number
of large orders on hand. A meeting of the di-
rectors will be held tomorrow, and the affairs
of the concern will be put into the hands of
three iquidating trustees. 1t is rumored that
Pittsburg parties will take the works, and that
they will be running again inside Of month.

he was the thief and Mikesell was innocent.
Mixesell left the key in the safe one evening

duplicate key, with which he opened the safe
and secured the package. The money he sent
to his brother in Michigan, sending it through
the mails as old paper. Relatives of Mikesell

DoYLEsTowN, January 27.-The somewhat
famous case of the Commonwealth against A.
Nelson Lewis, member of the Philadelphia
Gun Club, who was indicted for cruelty to
animals for participating in pigeon shooting
match on the grounds of the club at Anda-
lusia. Bucks county, on December Il, 1887. was
concluded to-day, when Judge Yerkes handed
down an opinion in which he declared the de-
fendant guilty as indicted.
The indictment under which the trial was
begun set forth the fact that Lewis. on the
date mentioned, cred with gun upon certain
pigeons liberated from a trap, killing one and

half of said defendant, according to the Gus
tom of said club in regard to wounded birds
The birds so killed were Immediately sold for
food, according to the rule and custom of said
club.
In his opinion, which is quite lengthy, Judge
Herkes declares that the act of March, 1859,
under which the Indictment was framed, is in

The Judge brushed aside, as scarcely worthy

pigeon shooting was an exercise that should be
encouraged, as tending to promote strength and
courage, and to render the citizens more
efficient for those services which he may be
called upon to render the State in time of war,

WASHINGTON. January 27.-The contest
over the Titusville postofice is hardly made
more favorable to Congressman Culbertson
by the retirement of W. Il. Bloss from the
field, and the broad Endorsement, by nearly
all the straight Republicans, of Major L. L.
Shattuc. Endorsements of Shattuc have been
filed at the Postofice Department from Col
onel Carter, E. o. Emerson, Hon. Willis
Benedict, w. II. Bloss, and many others,
and the Major has the strong support of
m1ttee, who, as most Pennsylvania Repub-
cans here seem to think, should be accorded
the courtesy of being permitted to have
something to say about the appointment OF
his home postmaster.
The charge against Gilmor, or one Of the
charges, is that he is a Mugwump, of the
kind that Mr.. Culbertson seems determined
to put into Office wherever he can, to main
tain the organization of the William L.
Scott Republicans, in the Northwest dis
district. Protests are on file from many
leading Republicans Of Titusville. rehears-
ing Gilmor's disloyalty to the party. and
his record as "kicker" when he was cit
izen of Mexican county is recited in unmis-
taxable terms for the benefit OF the Post
master General.
Mr.. Wsnamaker is quoted as having said
that he did not see how he could pass over
the recommendation of the Congressman of
the district, even for the Chairman OF the
committee, but if this be true, which is
doubtful, it is certainly very inconsistant,
as he has shown a similar courtesy to other
officials of State organizations, in spite of
the claims OF Congressman, and his excuses
for refusing to recognize Hon. John Dalzell,
in the Pittsburg contest, was that he
thought the Chairman of the National Com
mittee should be needed in the matter, rather
than the Congressman.
The fight at Titusville rivals that at
McKeesport, and is growing hotter every
dav. Major Shattuc's friends are determined
to push him for all he is worth, and to leave
no stone unturned to defeat Gilmor. As
Shattuc is an old soldier, with fine record,
and is personally very popular, it is posi-
BILE Culbertson may yet be defeated.
