This community Is greatly excited
over the story Of n haunted house
near Jackson Center, about fivo
miles northeast Of this place, and
hundreds OF people have visited the
spot.
Jesse Harrison, owner Of the farm,
died about two months ago leaving
his wife, son and two daughters living
In the house, says Mercer, Penn,
dispatch to the plttsburg Dispatch.
About week ago strange noises
were heard about the house, some
times sounding ~ II someone would
walk down stairs, wlen the sounds
would cease aud no one appear. TN
Wednesday evening the supper
table started oil without any appar-
ent cause and didn't stop until II
reached the corner Of the room.
Miss ROherts, MIR. Shannon and
Mrs. Harrison left the room for
few minutes, and on returning
found the clock, vases nnd every
thing on the manicl piled on the
floor and all the furniture upset.
shannon put the clock back, and ON
turning around "a moment after
found IL again on the floor The
coal In IA hOd behind the stove flew
around promiscuousiy without any
visible cilI~c. Stones without num-
bcr have been thrown into the house
and against the house and burn, and
all watching has failed to discover
the throwcr.
Mrs. Runklc, u nelghhor, who
huOtCd at the manifestations at first,
now fully believes that Harrison Is
back in the spirit, while james and
John Mct.irit, brothers of Mrs. Ilar-
rison. have been present three or
four days watching events, hut claim
t. he entirely at "a loss to account for
the strange proceedings.
The spectcr Deer OF walden Ridge.
The mountain people ON Walden's
Ridge, within fifteen miles of Chat
tanoogn, are convinced that spec
ter deer protects the living ones, says
the Griffin, Ca, Call There are
still large number of deer to bc
found on the mountains, aud parties
frequently 90 from the city on hunt
ing expeditions. They seldom fail
To get within sight Of game, but
very frequently return without any.
The reason for this Is explained by
one OF the natives of the ridge In
most singular way. "l KNOW he
said, "that there L. II spec
ter deer on the mountain.
l have seen IL, and 30 have
- great many other people. Now ]
can hit II top of u cap-boN at 100
yards, and | never missed deer in
my lie when 1t was an actual flesh
aud blood deer. but often, when
l 20 hunting, ! jump half n dozen
deer at n time; one of them will
stop within n few feet, with his side
tp me, shoot nt it and IL never
moves, aud | load and fire again.
Then know that it Is the sprcior
deer, and there IL no use In my
hunting any more that day; L
would never SEE another deer"

FITZGERALD sOUNDLY RATED.
He Should Have Called Convention OF
the Irish League Three Years Ago.

CHICAGO, Jan. 20.-Chicago Irishmen are con-
siderably agitated over the news from New
York that President Fitzgerald attempted to
organize a secret committee to audit the ac-
counts of Rev. DIR. Chrrles o'Reilly. national
treasurer Of the league. They regard il as an
extraordinary proceeding. The simple fact
is, said an Irishman yesterday, that Fitz-
gerald or the men who control HIM are running
the league as if it was their private property
know that when he came to Chicago last May
to consult with Alexander sullivan he was
asked TO call convention. but he only returned
an evasive answer. Before the request could
be pushed in a way to force him 70 take some
sort of a stand DIR. Cronin's body was found in
the Evanston avenue sewer. The excitement
that followed drove all thoughts of league
matters out of the heads of Irishmen and the
convention was forgotten. Fitzgerald should
have called a convention three years ago. The
constitution under which he elected saws
his term shall only extend over period of one
year, and that before the expiration Of that
time he shall issue a call for a convention SO
that his successor could be selected. He issued
no such call /"

OTTAWA, ONT, Jan. 20.-Passenger trains
from the north have been unusually late for
some time past. The cause has not been the

waiting to be transhipped to Boston and other
eastern points- Every man who can run an
engine has been given q freight train and even
