A comparison shows that the two

Was Dupcd by a Ghost.

SPRINGFIELD. H.. Nov. g. Some time
ago the village Of Ridgely was excited
by the finding in cellar of "a box con-
tanning some bank bills by Mrs. Elma
Cartwright. who said She was directed
10 the spot by the spirit of her mother.
The bills were badly faded, but the
box in which they had been buried was
in good condition. When the bills
were sent on to Washington to be re-
deemed il was discovered that they
were not bank notes. the silk threads
in them being fine sewing silk instead
of the regular fibre. and the paper be-
ing unlike that used in genuine money.
\ special agent of the treasury depart
ment was sent here to look the whole
matter up and he is convinced that the
whole thing was Il hoax put up on Mrs.
Cartwright. As the woman has been
sick for some time and had worried
greatly about her visions, il is thought
some of her friends arranged the hoax
in order to set her mind at rest.
