GHOSTS AT THE CAPITOL.-By the
superstitious the United States capitol
is said to be full of ghosts. At least
three such apparitions are familiar to
the watchmen and attendants who
guard the great building and keep it
in order. According to the testimony
of some of them, at twenty minutes
past II O'Clock every night the spirit OF
General Logan comes out of the room
of the Committee on Military and
Militia, of which he used to be chair
man, beneath the Senate chamber
He opens the door slowly, it is related,

hind him, proceeding therefrom with
noiseless tread westward. The negroes
who come to clean the floors at 8 O.
clock every morning are so afraid OF
encountering the spectre that they
turn on every electric light in the sup
posed haunted vicinity. Not far from
the same locality, under the portico of
the Senate wing, the ghost of an elder
lv cOlored man is said to scrub every
night the marble floors he used to clean
regularly for years while living. he
having died more than a year ago. The
sounds of his brush and pail and the
slosh of spectral water on the stones, it

such occasions, while several of his sur
viving fellow workmen swear that they
have beheld his shadowy figure engag-
ed in the manner described. The
phantom which has been longest
known at the capitol, however, haunts
the basement of the House of Repre-
sentatives. 1t is described by many OF
the watchmen, who claim to have seen
it, as tall, military looking gentleman
of foreign aspect, with long mustache
and goatee, who walks about the CORR
doris in melancholy manner, with his
hands clasped behind him, and prompt
ly vanishes when approached.
The ghost of Guiteau, the assassin OF
President Garfield, is said to haunt the
| United States Jail here, where he was
executed. Negroes confined there are
extremely afraid of being put into the
cell which he occupied One colored
prisoner confined in this cell was fright
ened into fit by another who rolled
marbles into it at night from the OPP
posite side of the corridor. Another
spectre attached to the same penal in
stitution has, in the belief of the cred
ulous, the disagreeable feature of be
| ing headless. 1t is said to be the appar
ition of murderer named Stone, who
was the first criminal hanged at the

The HABIT OF TEASING.-There are
few habits which should be more care
fully looked after among youngsters
than that of teasing and worrying
either playmates or the elder members
of the family. At the outset and in it's
mildest form, it may be to certain ex-
tent entertaining and amusing in the
little one, but after time it grows al
most intolerable, and if allowed to
strengthen with the growth of the child
it develope into a habit than which
nothing is more annoying and exasper-
ating. There are persons in good soci-
ETY. who are simply tolerated because
there seems no legitimate way in which
to get rid of them. They are the ter
ror OF their entire acquaintance, for
one never knows what they are going
to do next. An accident. a misfortune,
a trifiing indiscretion, or some uncom-
Portable event or other, furnishes them
a pretext, and there is no living with
them once they get started. The most
private and confidential affairs are not
safe with them, once their propensity
neither feeling nor consideration for
anybody or anything, so they have
their little joke. A curious phase of
this sort of performance is that many
of these persons are really kind heart
ed, and if it could once be impressed
upon their minds that they seriously
distressed and annoyed their friends
and made them. unhappy, they might
possibly be induced to forego such vex-
atious amusement5; but no one tells
them how disagreeable they make
themselves, and, therefore, they go
on, the living annoyance of their circle
and terror to persons of all ages. To
snow that one cares about such things
Is often to furnish occasion for further
teasing; therefore. the victims keep
silence. Their only protection is the |
avoidance of the society of such peo-
pie, and more than one man and wo-
man have found themselves omitted |
from entertainments and left out of |
social gatherings without being able |

The Wife of Mr.. Blaine.

Mrs. Blaine has been most devoted
mother to her children, receiving from
them the most extravagant devotion in
return for her years of unselfish care,
writes Frank Woodberry in pleasant
sketch of the wife of the famous states
man in the December Ladies' Home
Journal. She is most brilliant and
charming hostess and delightful con-
versationaiist, with fine command of
words and graphic power of descrip-
ton.
In appearance Mrs. Blaine is pleas
ing. She is rather tall, and in figure is
inclined to stoutness. Her hair is
changing rapidly from gray to white,
and is always we'll and tastefully ar
ranged. Her eyes are a blue gray; her
taste in dress is quiet but elegant.
! Inconsistencies, unworldliness, I'M
selfshness and truthfulness, a power to
make those who know her enthusiastic
cally devoted to her, an industry al
most lilnitless in its accomplishment,
cheerfulness which never fails in the
darkest of crises, and frankness-these
are the characteristics of the woman
who, though so little known in her own
personality, has reflected in her hus-
bands brilliant successes the strength
and nobility of her life.
