Exploding a Ghost Story.

In these days, when the mysteries
of so-called haunted houses are not
thought beneath the attention ofsci-
entifc Investigators, it is interesting
to trace the operation OF natural
causes in producing seemingly super
natural results. While q shock is
given to the imagination by these
disclosures, there is room for the exer-
else of pleasant fancy in cOnjuring
up the impressions which resulted
from the original faith in the myster-
les thus cleared.
These reflections occurred to me on
hearing an explanation of the ghost
ly apparitions connected with the old
Swan house in Dorchester and the
strange sounds which were associat-
ed with them. 1t turns out that the
footballs heard in the front room on
the lower story at night were due to
an echo of the sounds of passing feet
on the gravel sidewalk, produced by
the peculiar shape ofthe room, which
projected outward in the curve of
circle. The ghostly figures which
were seen in the cellar by persons
peering through the windows from
the street were nothing more nor less
than lead statues that were removed
here from the grounds.
The ghost fleeing from the old
house early in the morning in the d.
rection of the family tomb, which so
alarmed a servant girl, turned out to
be a young man passionatelv fond OF
sport, who, hearing the sound of q
game bird near the house, had hastily
seized his gun and gone in search of
it, neglectlng in his excitement to
change his night clothes tor his or
binary dress.-Boston Post.

PERILs OF PAPER BAGS AsBUsTLEs.

There is woman in the west end who
has learned a lesson that will last her a life
time. She has been for years wearing these
paper bags such as the grocers use, for
bustles. The paper is stiff and sticks out
splendid, and makes the dress look well.
Last Sunday morning, while she was
dressing, her Young SOL got in the room
and blew IT," paper bag full of wind and
tied a string around the mouth al il in
chair. The good ,dy took it and tied it
IN, and dressed herself tor church. She
bribed her husband 10 90 to church with
her, though he il :. :. It OF B"h-Iugcrsoll
christian. As th went do IN the aisle
the minister was rra:irnga hymn about
rs ,nndng the L ,ui lIostnna," and the
lady went in the pew first, and sat down
while her husband was putting his hat
on the floor. There was report like
distant thunder. You have heard how
those COMPOUNDED paper bags explode
when boys blow them up and crush them
between their hands.
Well it was worse than that, every
body looked at the husband, who vas
standing there Il perfect picture of amaz
ment. He looked at his wife as much
to say: ''Now this is the last time you
will catch me in a church if you are
going to play any of your tricks on me.
| You think you can scare me INTO getting
religion. The minister stopped reading
the hymn, and looked over his spectacles
at the newcomers as though it would not
surprise him if that bad man should blow
the church up. The poor lady b!ushed
and look around as much to say: Il
did not know it was loaded" and she
looked the hymn book over for the hymn
and as the choir rose to sing she offered
one side of the book to her husband, but
he looked mad and pious, aud stood at
the other end OF the pew and looked out
of the stained Z lass window.
| Alter the service they started home to
gether, and as they turned the FIST
corner he said to his wife: We'll, you
played the dickens on our watch. dldn
you?" She said there was no such thing
in the Bible; but that she would make
that boy think there had teen no revision
of the Bible when she got home. We
only got the story from the husband.
He said he didn't know what is was that
made the noise until they got home, and
after a little skirmishing around his
wife held her up a bursted paper bag,
and asked the boy if he blew that bag
up. He said he did, but be did not know
there was anything about it. The boy
and his mother and a press board paid a
visit to the back kitchen, aud there was
sound OF revelry. Boys will be boys.

What am l TO do

The symptoms of Biliousness are I'M
happily but too well known. They differ in
different individuals 20 some extent. A
Bilious man is seldom breakfast eater.
Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids of a
morning. His tongue will hardly bear in
spection at any time; if it is not white and
fnrred, it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and Diarrhea or Constipation may be
a symptom or the two may alternate. There
are often Hemorrhoids or even loss of blood.
There may be giddiness and often headache
aud acidiry or tiatulence and tenderness in
the pit OF the stomach. To correct all this
if not effect cure try Green's August
Flower, it cost but tritie and thousands
attest Its efficacy. d

STARTLING STATEMENT.
Report of the Chairman of the
Committee on immigration.
Arrivals from Italy and Hun
gary Increasing.
Those from Sweden and Ger.
many Decreasing.

WASHINGTON, May IA joint meet
ing Of the house and senate committees on
immigration was held today. Represent
alive Owen, chairman of the house com
mittee which Investigated the subject at
New York, made a statement. The in.
spection of immigration at Castle Garden
he pronounced a fraud and said the immi-
grants were feeced by boarding house
sharpers. The observation of the immi-
grant officials is that the undesirgble ele-
ment Is increasing. Italians are coming
in hordes, without money and without
clothes except what they veal or carry in
bags. Owen said that the Italian bankers
in this country send agents to Italy to
solicit natives of that country to come to
America. These agents swlndle the
Italians. charging them as high as $50
Tor a ticket from Naples to New York,
the price of which is $40. Arriving at
New York they go to the boarding houses
kept or controlled by these Italian
bankers and from thence are
sent out TO labor under contracts made
by the bankers or padrones with
their employers. IF their pay is fixed at
$l.25 a day the padrones take twenty-five
cents. Besides, he furnishes a shanty in
which the men live while at work and las
a man in charge of hat. The Italians
are timid and suspicious, so it is i'm
possible for Americans to get at them
Within the past eight years they have
almost entirely supplanted the other races
in the ranks of unskilled labor in New
York City. In one square mile in
New York City there are 10000
people, 5000 more than in any ether
square mile on the earth's surface. These
people speak a foreign language Qtalian),
observe foreign customs and are sur
rounded by a Chinese wall over which
no American can go. The quality OF i'm
migration is, on the whole. deteriorating.
The percentage of Germans and Swedes
is decreasing and the Italians and Hun
garians increasing.
Lehlbach expressed the opinion that
the contract labor law, in its present form,
was a farcc.
