A BOYS CRIME.

His Ghost and His Victims Haunted the
Little school House.
The little red school house that once
stood near the Black river, Posey county, In
diana, has burned to the ground. A huge
pile of ashes mark the place where the
modest temple of learning stood. The
little school house was haunted, the natives
say. by the spirits of two bright boys who
once sat side by side upon a wooden bench
in the little school house. One day the
boys had a dispute upon the play
grounds. In the hand of one was
an open barlow knife. In his sudden
anger he slashed at his comrade with the
knife. The steel blade sank to the hilt
in the e~cboolboy's neck. The wounded lad
ran a dozen steps and fell forward upon the
doorstep of the school house. The boys
life blood spurted out in q stream. He WAS
dying. The Mortified teacher and pupils
gathered around the unfortunate boy. The
little murderer, with the tears trucking
ugly wound in the vain effort to stop the
terrible flow of blood. No human power
could save the wounded lads life, and he
was soon pale and rigid in death. The
corpse was gently carried to the stricken
home and the school children were dis
missed.
That night the officials of the law came
to arrest the school-boy murderer. A close
search was made. but the boy could not be
found. The following day his ~lifeless
body was found upon the fatal spot ut the
school house door. There was an ugly
wound in the boys neck. He had taken
his own life with the barlow knife and his
blood had mingled with that of his COM
rade and victim at the school house door.
There was a double funeral two day. later,
and the two school boys were laid in graves
side by side in the little church yard near
near here. After the enactment of the
tragedies at the school house strange things
happened there. Belated farmers
saw sights and heard groans there late al
night that made their blood run cold. The
country singing and wtiting schools were
broken up by the strange noises heard after
night at the school house door. Some
years ago n big watch party was organized
and held at the school house. At the We
hour of midnight there was a wild, weird
shrek at tho door and the lights went on,
all at once. The watch party broke up In
confusion and the ghosts at the school
house were never afterwards disturbed by
prying people.-St. Louis Republic.

The Balubans, as the natives of the
Muansanyomma district of Central Africa
are styled, enjoy an excellent local reputa-
tion as iron workers. They find their crude
material in the form of bog iron ore on the
surface Of the land. 1t rarely happens that
digging to an appreciable depth is neces-
sary. Their smelling furnaces, which are
constructed of clay, are from six to ten

Every reader of knight Errant"
and "a Hardy Norseman" must have
noticed how these novels are permeated
with the spirit of the time. This is
not surprising, seeing that Edna Lyall
isl diligent reader of the newspapers.
But although keenly interested in the
questions of the hour Edna Lyall takes
no active part in politics. She thinks
women can do more lasting service to
their country in the education of chill
dren, in infusing their minds with the
best sentiments in regard to public af-
fairs than by speaking on platforms
or canvassing for votes, This feeling

ONYX OnarrIes.

The onyx quarries of the State of
Pueblo, Mexico, are likely in the near
future to be source of great profit to
those engaged in them. These quar-
ries, for the most part, are situated
within radious of from twenty-five to
forty miles of the city of Pueblo, and
the finer sorts of the onyx are in that
city worked up into ornaments of vari-
GUS kinds and of exceeding beauty.
Some eleven or twelve esta blishments
in Pueblo are now solely engaged in
manufacturing these ornaments. Since
the Mexican Southern railroad from
Pueblo to Tecomayaca was opened no
less than 1000 tons of onyx have
passed over il.

SPLICING RAFTERs TOGETHER

under way drew the crowd of visitors
to the north end OF the island to watch
the proceedings. The toilers are as
picturesque as bit of old Japan can
be. They were at work on a tempo
rary house that looked like a joke.
The timbers were solid enough but
there wasn't nail in the whole affair.
The cross-pieces were fastened with
pieces of jute rope. The carpenters
used no ladders of any sort, but
climbed from ground to top and back
again with the agility of professional
trapezists. The men who worked
alott had punches of rope about their
waists, with which they fastened the
timbers passed up to them. Over in
another corner of the Enclosure, which
prevents the workmen from being
over-run by spectators, is q shed full
of curiosities. There are planes that
look like toy tools and that are drawn
toward the workman instead of being
pushed from him. The AIDES have
long curved handles and broad, curved
blades. When the Japanese car
, pentcr wants to cut with his
adj he holds the end Of the curved
/ handle with both hands, turns the
blade edge upward and chops as briskly
! as if he really were working the right
way instead of upside down. But the
handsaws are the great curios Of the
collection. They are about as long as
butchers cleaver, and the teeth are
set with a slant toward the handle,
which is only q strong, round piece OF
| wood bound to the saw with G
I fiber wrap. For all their ilnple
mcnts seem but toys the men achieve
surprising results. They already have
the foundations of the three japanese
temples ready for the upright columns
and were busy asserting the finished
material that was shipped from JapaI
to go into the superstructure. The

even formation, the broad forehead
having suggestion of the masculine
that is secuted by the sweet and sym
pathetic expression of the eyes. The
brown hair would be beautiful were it
not cut short and arranged with an
almost severe simplicity. She usually
dresses in a close-fitting garment Of
some plain material. Edna Lyall
owes really all her charm to her SYM
pathetic presence, if l may be par
doned the expression, her spiritual
earnestness and tender feeling. Pity
is one of her predominant qualities;
there always seems to be an undercur-
rent of sadness in her character at the
misery and woe in the world around
her.
Edna Lyall has written her works
mostly in the light and sunshine, of
which Eastbourne obtains very lib
eral share. She always writes in the
morning, plying the typewriter for
about two hours at a time, having
previously shaped and formed each
chapter in her own mind. Her first
thought is of the chief character, the
hero or heroine, of the story. Next
comes the plot, the circumstances and
incidents necessary to bring out the
individuality of this character. She
then makes some slight sketches of
the minor members of the dramatis
persona, and she is ready to begin the
novel. The time she spends upon it great.

a short time ago what he claimed were
the pelts of five white foxes. The man
is an expert naturalist, and has been
dealing in furs in the Northwest for
forty years. lie says these are the first
white foxes he ever heard of, but he is
absolutely sure the pelts are genuine
fox skins The conformation has been
carefully preserved, and the big brush
is, of course, attached. The fur is
snow-white, spotless and beautifully
soft. The furrier bought them from a
seal hunter who caught the foxes at
the last station to the north of eastern
Siberia, several miles north of Petro.
