4 SNEEZING STORY.

One day not long ago an old sol
der was telling some of his expert
ences during the war, and also of
some miraculous escapes from death
that he had witnessed. Il saw
fellow shot clean through the body
by a grapnell shell within an inch of
his heart" he said. THE shell came
out behind and killed mule, but the
poor fellow that was struck only
gasped a little for air and then he
kept on fighting just as fresh as
ever" The room became very quiet
and several looked toward Tangle,
who was present Tangle arose and
looked meditativel around. Il saw
something of the same kind as that"
he began. ct was at one of the first
engagements we had when we went
to the front. There was a soldier
who stood right beside me struck
square in the head with 12-pound
cannon ball. and, gentlemen, he never
knew it." The old soldier who had
told the first story looked a little
sheepish, and several laughed a little,
But" some one thought to in
quire, "didn't it kill him ?'' Tangle
looked up little bit surprised. ooh,
yes, certainly it killed him." he re-
piled. "But then maybe it was all
for the best. He might have lived to
tell the story. It's probably just as
WE'LL" he added, looking at the old
soldier.-[ From the Milwaukee Senti-

GHOSTS IN ANCIENT VILLA MS
BURG.

Seated in the coy parlor of a yet
older house, face to face with the
sweet-faced, sweet-toned mistress, we
believe the recital given by the voice
whose modulatiOnS are like 1.-The
music of Carryl" to ears once fami-
lar with the slow ripple of Virginia
speech-of the click of high heels that
echoes along the hall to the door of
the apartment in which we are now
seated, and that the door flies open
as the footballs reach it-a phenome-
non so often repeated that the occur
ence excites no alarm, scarcely re-
mark, among the visible inmates Of
the dwelling. Sometimes the wearer
of the high-heeled slippers walks in
broad daylight, but usually at night
All attempts to fathom the mystery
have been fruitless. The accustomed
ears of our hostess have supplied
other senses with vivid conception
of what manner of ghost is the I'M
quiet visitant. The feet are small,
she is sure; the tread is light, with
the buoyancy of youth; the carriage
is highbred. The "tap" tapr of
the dainty heels begins at the back
of the wide hall, and moves steadily
to the door, obedient to her touch
the door is opened, as by the eager
hand of an expectant lover-then all
is silent. Did the nameless "she"
meet her fate upon the threshold !?
Or does she still seek and pursue it !?

She pressed on, over turf and fallen
leaves, until she came to one lonely
grave. The ground cracked under
her feet. The grass on the grave
was fading and the few flowers on
the top were now withered and old.
Mother Grub got down on her
hands and knees after painful eff
fort, and brushed away the rotting
leaves. Then she began to dig away
the earth at the head of the grave
with an old rusty knife. The ground
was getting hard, now that the fall
had come, and the threads of frost
covered the loan with silver 1t was
not easy for the old woman to dig.
She seemed to grow tired, but she
still kept on. y
Her hands were trembling as she
was finishing the work, and the
tears began to come again. With
painful effort she reached for the
cross, where it hrd fallen at her side.
She kissed it again, and pressed it to
her breast long and tenderly. With
another effort she stuck the end into
the hole which she had dug.
The cross dropped into place with
a slight jar Old Mother Grub
reached forward to touch it, and
then tried to get up. A flush came
over her face and smile lighted her
eyes-then she fell heavily down
wards on the grave They found her
the neqt day, with that loving look
upon her wrinkled face, and the rusty
old knife in her bony hand.-[J. Wal

A BIG SEA BA SIS.

A large crowd on the noon ferry
boat collected about one of the truck
carts yesterday, attracted by huge
and queer fish that was extended
along the frame of the truck. To
every appearance the fish belonged
to the trout family and was judged
to be a freak in size. One Of the
curious lOOkers-On measured the
length of the monster and found it to
be nearly seven feet, while the great
est breadth about the body was
three and half feet The scales ap-
peared very much like pieces of
abalone shell, but were ductile and
semi-transparent.
By and by the inevitable know-all
came along and he explained the
wonder to the crowd. The sea
leviathan was a species of the black
sea bass, and by all odds the largest
of its kind ever captured on this
coast. Its weight was about 400
pounds. 1t was captured off the
Catalin islands, and the powerful
rope fastened through its enormous
mouth attested it's prodigious
strength.
1t was learned that smaller speci-
mems of this fish are brought up from
the Santa Barbaras and sold to
wholesale dealers, who in turn retail
them to restaurants. The res
taurants, by a process of seasoning
and hammering out the flesh, are en-
abled to serve the fish to their
patrons under a dozen different
names-[ From the San Francisco
Chronicle.

Freely thy blood was shed

Firm as thine own green hills,

Born where heavens cloud distils,

SEVERAL MISSING.
The List Of Killed in the 500
Wreck at Barrett Likely to
Be Increased.
Considerable Bitterness Is Elk
pressed Against the Rail-
road Company.

ELBOW LAKE Mimi. Special, Aug. 3d.
An Inquest over the 500 wreck of Saturday
commenced at Barrett to-day. It has de-
veloped that the bridge was rotten, and it is
alleged that the company's agents reported
its unsafe condition, which has been the
talk Of h Barrett people for come time.
Public feeling is running high against the
company, and the verdict Of the %coroner's
jury is expected to lay the foundation for
the indictment of the officials. The .engi-
neer of the ill lated train testified that he
was running on schedule time, about thirty
miles an hour, having no order to the
contrary. On the same day at
noon he e over the same bridge
on the east-bound passenger train having
orders that the track was in a bad condi-
ton o wing to the storm, which at Barrett
was in the nature of q cloudburst. The
coroner has ordered the raking Of swollen
Pomme de Terre river, as kilograms of in
curry point to several missing and not &C
counted for. The five unclai med bodies
will remain unburied until the close of the
inquest. Gustaf Bergquist. who lived at
Hoffman, has been buried. John Mcmillan.
roadmaster, is dying. All others who were
fatally injured were removed to Minneapo-
lis hospitals. The bridge will not be re-
paired for several days. as it is raining al.
most continuously and the whole country
is under water. Regular trains are being
run at / 9th ends with an improvised ferry

An Important Change OF Plans for Yes

An Important Change OF Plans for YES
sells Under Construction.
PHILADELPHIA. Aug. "a dispatch
from New York, publ sh d in this morn
ing's Enquirer, says in changing the plans
for vessels under construction caused quite
a STIR among naval officers, most of
whom were puzzled how to answer
the questions whether the changes made
were detrimental to the efficiency of those
vesseIs, and whether they were due to
blunders in designs or to the capacity of
the contractors to perform their work.
The case in question was that of the cruiser
New York, now we'll on its way to COM
pletion at Cramps ship var &. The
charges made are mainly in refer
ence to the armor, the intention be-
ing to use verticie faced instead of
the inclined amor plate as originally called
for. Another important change has been
the removal Of the five-inch ammunition
tube OF armor which extended from the
turret drought the unarmored main deck
to the protected deck. preventing supply of
tecting the ammunition and the men
handling it against fragments Of shells
bursting on board between the hilt and the
barbette. Henry w. Cramp, of the ship
building establishment, states tt:at his firm
was. of course, not responsible Tor any
changes. but was compe.l led 10 obey orders
as they came from the secretary of the
navy. The trouble arose, he said, from d
fight in the department at Washington
