A GRAVEYARD GHOST.
which IL Thought to Be the Spirit o.
Revolutionary soldier.

which IL rho1ght to Ese the spirlt of
Revolutionary soldier.
A ghost has made its appearance in
the graveyard surrounding the his
toric First Presbyterian church, which
Is in the middle of the business por-
ton of Elizabeth, N. J. 1t contains
the bones OF many Revolutionary sol
diers. The phantom was seen first
by John Weunser, q baker, who works
opposite the graveyard. He was going
to geta pail OF beer about midnight.
He was walking along, thinking, when
he was startled by an unearthly sound
from the graveyard. He beheld q
specter moving to and fro among the
headstones and 1t was muttering in
deep tones.
The specter must have been the re-
turned spirit of some dead soldier, for
upon seeing che baker IL raised its
arms as il aiming gun. After taking
sight it uttered a grosu. The unseen
gun didn't 60 off. AS Weunser stood
rooted to the spot the ghost picked up
two stones as large as bricks and
hurled them at him. One struck the
iron fence that surrounds the grave
yard The other, Weuuser says,
struck his hat and knocked it off.
Weunser then ran back to the bakery
and upstairs into the proprietor's
apartments where party was in the
midst of a dance. He told his ex-
perience. Several young men rushed
from the building and searched the
church-yard with lanterns, but failed
to find any trace of a human being.
Wcunscr's hat was found in the gut
tor, and n stone lay near it. Tho
spcctcr was reported abroad again the
following night

THEIR FIRST DISAGREEMENT.
How Bridal Couple Fell Out Over
Their Breakfast.

There was newly married couple
at one of the Washington hotels the
other day, and they were as dead in
love with each other and as anxious to
let nobody else find it out as such
people usually are. He was all atten-
ton, and the waiter noticed when they
came to dinner, which was the first
meal served after they reached the
hostelry, that he ordered everything
she did. She wanted her beef well
done and so did he. She ordered q
glass of milk and rye bread, and he
Immediately did likewise. When she
took sip of the fluid he followed suit
with gallant alacrity, and man with
half an eye could see that he was
drinking her health every time.
When they were through and had
left the room the waiter re-
marked to the star boarder
under his care that "dey wuzn' no

He Was Safe Until He Ran Up Against
the Athletic Young Man.
A car-seat monopolist, one of those
men who spread themselves out for
more comfort than they are entitled
to, was discounted the other day on
Royal Blue train between Washing
ton and Baltimore. In the ladies' car
only one seat was left vacant 1t was
next to the window, and on it was
placed the overcoat and travelling bag
of the man who sat at the other end
of the seat Two ladies entered the
car. and the colored porter politely
asked the man to give the vacant seat
to one of the ladies. The man did not
reply, and the porter, still polite, re-
quested the man to remove his bag
gage from the seat. The only reply
was grunt The ladies passed on.
An athletic young man in the car,
who was stickler for fair play, rose
from his seat, got one of the ladies to
take it and threw his overcoat over
his arm and strobe to the seat oc-
cupied by the mean man. He said
not a WORD, but stepped over the
monopolists feet, tossed his overcoat
across the back of tho seat, threw the
other mans overcoat to one side,
dropped his valiso to the floor, and
took comfortable possession of the
seat. After the young man had seated
himself all the passengers in the car
clapped their hands in applause.
Cigar eases were produced and thrust
at the hero, and he was kept busy
declining invitations to go to the
smolling-room and take something.
The other man wilted, and burying
his face in a wspaper did not emerge
from it until the train stopped at
Camden station.

GORE AT THE POLLS
Bloody Fight at the Kansas CITY
Election.
FOUR DEAD AND TWO WOUNDED.

Roman Catholics and American Protec-
tives Lock Horns aud Have a Battle in
in Which the Firing Is Very Hot and
Deadly-Dispute as to Who Fired the
First Shot. but the Trouble Begins with
Resistance to a Constable.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April 4--The Ameri-
can Protective Association and the Roman
Catholics came together in a bloody con-
flict at the polls in this city. 1t cannot be
stated which side is responsible for the
affair, as the partisans of each loudly
charged the other with being the full
cause of all the trouble. More than 100
shots were exchanged between the COM
batants in less than that many seconds.
and when the firing ceased the following
named were lying dead, dying or injured
on the pavement:
killed-Mike Callahan, city sidewalk
inspector, shot through the right side;
Harry Fowler, laborer, shot through ths
back; Con Brosnahan, contractor, shot
through the kidneys; Jerry Pate, deputy
constable, shot in the face.
Wounded-Patrick Fleming, shot in the
left shoulder: John McGovern, labore-.
shot through the right arm.
Whnt Was Expected Occurred.
The riot was the elimination of bitter
feeling had been manifested by action and
words ever since the polls opened The
two antagonistic elements were solidlv
divided in their choice of candidates for
mayor, and each side gave aggressive
support to its candidate Therefore, the
workers of the respective factions at the
different polling places throughout the
city expected trouble and We're prepared
for it, was apparent from the number
of deadly weapons that We're drawn when
the first pistol shot was fired The riot
that resulted so fatally was the climax of
II series of smaller riots that took place at
other points earlier in the day between
the same opposing factions.
The Protectives Worked for Their Man.
The American Protective association,
which supported Davis the Republican
candidate for mayor, had their own work
ers at the different polling places and they
distributed in some precincts their own
tickets bearing their candidates name and
decorated with the American flag. Jim
Pryor, a Fifth ward politician anita gonis,ic
to the A. =. p. and who supported Frank
johnson, the labor and factional Demo-
cratic candidate, was active at the head OF
fifty constables, which he got Justice Lats-
chaw to appoint Monday night. 1t was
said by some that these consta ables were
many of them, irresponsible characters,
and were largely the cause of all the
trouble. Consequently there were loud
threats of mobbing them before they got
to headquarters after the bloody riot was
over.

WHO FIRED TIE FIRST SHOT?
The Question That Always Arises Is Up
ut the Start.


ut the Start.
1t is claimed that one of PY'yor's fol-
lowers fired the first shot. That one IVES
Mike Callahan, and he was n dead man
the next moment. Then the battle began.
The deputy constables at this polling
booth and the workers of all the political
factions crowded together in a solid mass
about lC0 strong. and every one of them
seemed to be armed For minute or two
the discharge of weapons sounded like q
discharge of musketry by regiment.
Hundreds of citizens gathered at every
point OF vantage To witness the battle,
which, however, was OF short duration.
Many of the residents along the boulevard
added to the general feeling of terror by
leaning from their windows, shouting ana
gesticulating wildly.
In less than five minutes from the time
the first shot was fired, however, the blue
coats from Station No. had appeared
upon the scene and quieted the disturb
auce. With their first approach the fight
ing political workers ceased hostilities and
made quick effort to hide their weapons.
Pryor's men are claiming that Callahan
was an innocent victim. They assert that
1t was Jerry n. Pate. an A j. \ man.
who first shot, and that WIS the shot that
killed Callahan. Pate was serving as IA
constable, having been appointed es-
peciallly by a Newport official to serve a
warrant for the arrest of Jim Pryor, John
Pryor (his SOM and Bert Pryor for IN al
legged feionious assault upon citizen ear
lier in the day.
Anyway he and Callahan met had words
and either one or the other fired the shot
that commenced the conflicts Prior's
side OF the story gets some color from the
fact that Harry Arthur, who is. however,
one of Pryor's followers, says that he him
self is the man who shot Pate in the face.
He says thet Pate with a pistol in his hand
was attempting to arrest Harry McCiovcrn.
Arthur told Pate: ''Iou' can't TAXI. him.
and Arthur was backed by Jim Todd.
Pate said he was constable and showed
his warrant.
just then Mike Callahan ran up to Pate
and asked him what right ne had to carry
pistol and demanded to see his permit.
The two men exchanged angry words, and
then Pate aimed at Callahan and fired.
That is Arthur's story He closed with
the words: Il shot Pate"
