The story comes from over around
Treskow that the place where Mike
Gelyatko was murdered is now haunted
The ''spook" is said to be headless, and
the supposition is that it is Mike himself,
going around looking for his head which
was amputated with grubbing hoe at
the time of the coroner's inquest.
Dudor, the man in Carbon county Jail,
who has confessed to the killing of
Gelyatko, has seen the ghost on a
number of occasions, and his shrieks
and screams every night keep all the
prisoners in the building awake.

Dog Thieves Around.

Hunters have much trouble about
this time every year in preventing
thieves from stealing their dogs. After
feeding and keeping them in good trim
since the closing of last season it is not
very pleasant to wake up some morning
and find a valuable animal missing.
1t is an easy thing to steal hunting
dog, as they make but little noise, and
after being captured can be sent or taken
to friend ten or fifteen miles away. 1t
is common practice in this neighbor-
hood, but the thieves, whoever they are
will meet with several hot repceptions if
they attempt to repeat the stealing done
last year.

Now Comes the Wall Paper Trust.

Housekeepers will be interested in
learning that all the prominent wall
paper manufacturers Of the country have
formed trust, under the name of the
"National Wall Paper Company" and
prices will soon, if they have not already
advance to the high figures which pre-
vailed six or eight years ago, before the
pool was broken.
The trust is composed of twenty six
of the largest manufacturers and will alb
solutely control the output and prices
of wall paper in the future. The Nc
Kinley act increased the duty on several
grades of paper, but reduced it upon
none, and the high duty placed on the
foreign wall paper prevents the Ameri-
can manufacturers from having any
competition.
