[Paris Correspondence ST James Gageite.l
The ehostly season has been opened this
year in the Rus de ls Sourdiere, either by
the same company of spirits who gave q
series of performances in a different local
ity last winter or fresh troop. The ques-
ton remains unsettled, for even the spirit
uslists who are on speaking terms with the
people who have no bodies have been IN
able to identify or come to an understand
ing with the ghosts that have been playing
such curious high jInks in Paris during
the last two or three years. Those now
haunting the house in the Rue de Ia Sour
diere smuse themselves in exsctly the same
way as the others who upset the nerves of
a quiet family last winter-with this diff
ference, tnat the new set Isssuming that
they do not belong to one travelling COM
/ pany) appear to contine their antics princi-
pally to the kitchen.
They have a peculiar liking, or hatred,
for all cooking utensils; for any saucepan
or frying pan that msy be hanging sgainst
the wall is sure to be pulled off its nail and
thrown on the ground. There is nothing
for a cook to do in such kitchen but TO Ia
ment or execrete. The waltzing of the sauce
pans, the Trying pan and grluiron at night
has been something unspesksbly Internal;
for these things when they jump off their
nails do not remain where they fall, but
get up dance, and keep 1t going with q
disregard of propriety quite bscchsnalisn.
At length the ghosts (the ghostly theory is
admitted In default of a better one), fnd-
ing their game with cooking utensils rather
slow-although this was not the impression
of other people-turned their attention to
glass and crockery, and either threw 1t at
one another or smsshed 1t from love of mis-
chief and sheer deviltry. Tbs night on
which this took place was too much for the
nerves Of ths people who occupied the
lodgings. They deserted their rooms and
took refuge with q neighbor. The police
have visited the premises, prepar-
ed to draw up q process verbal against
the ghosts II the phenomena were repeated
In their presence. But while they are
there the pots and pans and broken crock.

at the time of the previous outbreaks ol
the supernatural Not ghost can be found

the spirits that are causing 90 much trouble
again are French; Ii Is evident that ths
national respect for uniforms clings tc

THE GOOD ROAD LEAGUE.

The growth of the movement for better
roads is lively and encouraging. The
National League for Good Roads is only
three months old, but 1t has done a good
deal of work. Local leagues have been
formed in Maine, New Hampshire, Yer
mont, New York, New Jersey, Maryland,
Virginia, District of Columbis and Ari-
zona; and State league in Vermont and
a county league at Rochester, New York.
Arrangements have been made for holding
State conventions in January in Maryland,
Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, Virginia and
Minnesota. The governors of twenty-five
States have been persuaded to act as State
vice presidents or have appointed
substitutes. Five thousand railroad
agents have been supplied with documents
and instructed by their employers to aid
in forming local leagues. Country banks
and manufacturers of road and farm i'm
plements have also been enlisted in the
work. The Chamber of Commerce of New
York and other commercial bodies have
taken a marked interest in it. Colleges
and county clubs are forming local leagues.
Preparations are being made to supply
country postmasters and school teachers
with blanks and documents when the Ma
tional league is able to pay for the neces-
ssry printing and postage. A meeting of
the general board of governors of States
and State directors is to be held in Wash
ington, January II.
Any four citizens of the same school dis
triot will receive charter upon application
with authority to organize local league.
The necessary forms are soon to be distrib-
uted broadcast for purposes of popular in
| struction. Subscriptions are invited from
local leagues towards fund for the pub
lication of weekly newspaper, which will
be started at an early day. 1t will sgitate
the passage of the Senate bill for National
Highway Commission of Inquiry, publish
full information regarding methods of
road-making, and aid in providing for 9
proper road exhibit in Chicago and for free
instruction in rosd-msking at the Worlds
Fair.
All this ia in the right line. 1t is not to
the credit of the people of this country
that they have been 80 slow to see the ad-
vantages of good roads and to benefit by
those advantages. Good roads cost more
to make than poor ones, but they are vastly
I more economical te, use.
