a TRUE GHOST STORY.

ehs Request Of the Apparition Was Cor.
risd Out to tho Letter.
Here Is . ghost story-one Of large
class, and therefore perhaps more
likely to be veracious, especially as it
FIRST saw the light in London paper.
Ithas an appearance OF strict and even
narrow truthfulness. There was a GER
tain Capt. Blomberg, Of some regiment
unknown, on active service in America.
Five or six Of his brother officers, he be-
ing engaged on duty two hundred miles
away, were dining together. The door
was opened and Capt. Blomberg ap.
peared, to everybody's surprise. With
out speaking, he walked in and sat
down in vacant chair. They all
asked him how he came there.
To their questions he made no reply;
then one Of them said: '.Blomberp. are
you mad?"
On this he rose and replied: "When
you 60 back to London take my son to
the queen and beg her to be his pro
tector."
This said, he walked out of the room
Is he had come in. A few days after
ward the news came that he had been
killed in action on the very day and
at the same hour of his appearance.
1t is pleasing to record that the
queen, on whose favor the gallant Of
dcer may have had some claims, did
protect the son, who became chaplain
in-ordinary to his majesty, deputy clerk
OF the kings closet, canon residentiary
of st. Pauls and vicar of st. Giles, Grip
plepate.

not have it, but company being in the
room, gave no reason. In a few min

"Why, bless mel" cried her ladyship,
"you can't ride him, Lord Eldon, he

Chicago Record, he landed on his feet
after turning over a couple of times,
and crawled out Of the bottom door
with silly and mortified look ON his

The men who had seen him fall
rushed to the bottom of the shaft, ex

and ifeless.

going crucial test, but it is standing
the ordeal bravely, and in the end will
emerge with the prestige of sustained
credit and greater prosperity than it
has ever enjoyed. 1t has been a hard

In these times of extra depres-
sion. A rigid policy Of retrenchment
has been pursued. Salaries of public
officials have been cut, the army de-
creased, and additional taxes imposed
in order to meet the obligations Of the
government. There is no system of di-
rect taxation down there. and all the

A SHREWD SOVEREIGN.


IN 1mperos who Financiorsd 70 Some
Purpose.
Among other expedients to raise
money, Ivan resigned the crown in
favor Of Tarter kahn, who was bap-
tised under the name Of Simeon. Ivan,
says the Gentlcman's Magazine, feigned
to withdraw himself from public At
fairs, but in reality he held on to them,
and made the new car call in all the
charters formerly granted to the mon
asteries and bishoprics, and all the
charters were Cancelled. This curious
interregnum, or by whatever name it
should be designated, lasted nearly n
year, and then Ivan declared he did not
like the new regime, and, Diminishing
the baptised heather, again took up
the scepter which, as matter of fact,
he had never really discarded. He is
sued fresh charters to the monasteries,
but was careful to keep back several
nne slices Of the revenues, extorting
from some of them fifty thousand and
from some others one hundred thou
sand rubles annually. We shall see,
as Ivan's character is unfolded, that
this spoilation Of the monasteries was
not the only thing in which he resem-
bled our own merry monarch, Henry
VIII. He would send his agents into
the various provinces, there to buy up
at low prices the whole of some par
ticular commodity for which the prov
incc was noted. After retaining the
monopoly for awhile he would sell for
1 high rate and even compel merchants
to buy at the prices he named. He
followed similar course with foreign
imports, creating monopoly and for
til he had disposed Of his own. BY
these means he cleared two hundred
thousand rubles year.

A JOURNALIST.

Ono Newspsper Writer Who Was Born to
the Work.
The multitudes Of young people who
are aspiring to be journalists may gain
IN idea what q "born journalist" really
is from the case of NJ. Auguste Vac
querie, a distinguished newspaper
man" who died recently in Paris.
1t is stated on good authority that
from the time he began writing for the
press, ut the age of about twenty, to
the time Of his death, at seventy-six,
Vacquerie had published in the French
journals twenty thousand. articles
signed with his name.
For the greater part Of this time he
published at least one signed article
every day. These articles were of q
high literary quality, and not only in.
teresting but full Of spirit, hopefulness
and reformatory enthusiasm.
A man of letters one day said to him:
IN. Vacquerie, how can you write
every day an article full of youth, spirit
and sense? It must be a crushing task!'
"Why, no." answered Vacquerie,
with surprise, "it is no task at all. On
the contrary, it is necessary for my
health. Instead of wearying me, i,
rests my brain to write an article
every day."
Such a man may surely be pro
nounced a born journalist. M. Vac.
querie had not only gayety and bright.
ness, but an important something
which many Of our own journalists
sadly lack-a serious purpose and a
sense of responsibility. A newspaper
always fails in it's duty if it permits it.

WON HIS CASE.

A Philadelphia Lawye.s Idea Of Thrift
and How IL Worked.
Over in Philadelphia dwelt a young
law student who fell in love just as he
was about to be admitted to practice.
The girls father also belonged to the
profession and was reckoned pretty
smart. as Philadelphia lawyers 60.
The old fellow gave a partial consent
TO the young mans pleadings, but con-
cluded he would try the student and
see II he was worthy to be his son-in-
law. 30 he said:
1.-The case of Blank against Blank
has been on the calendar several years.
It has been tried, appealed, decision
reversed, tried again and comes up
again for argument at the next gen.
eral term am counsel for the plain

but now l turn it over to you Here
are the papers; see what you can do. "
The young man took the papers and
went to work with q vim born of love
also win q bride! At last life seemed ia
him worth the living. He studied the
case thoroughly. He consulted the
authorities and was loaded and primed
for a brilliant argument when the
court convened He made his plea and
won the case without any trouble.
With heart OVERLOOKING with joy
he returned to his prospective father
in-law and, slapping down the papers
he exclaimed:
"See here, sir; the case is won
These are the proofs. What you tried
for years to do have ace ynplished .,

have your daughter?"
The old fellow looked up with Z
smile upon his face as he replied:
II think you fool and you can,

give you little gratuitous advice: II

1t would naturally be supposed that
business depression or financial panic
would not be felt in the city of Wash
ington, but this is not entirely the case
AT least two-thirds of the inhabitants
OF this city derive their living, directly
or indirectly, from the government,
says the Washington Star. The mer.
chant is dependent in a great measure
upon the patronage of government EN-.
ployes for support, and the two largest
stores in the city recently moved of
Pennsylvania and up town in order to
be convenient to the big departments.
In addition to this, an enormous sum is
paid out here directly from the treas.
ury for pensions. Hundreds of pen.

their pensions Immediately they are

how about the only time a government
clerk ever saves money is in q period OF

houses or rents a smaller house and
cuts down his expenses in every way.
Thus nearly every class of business ia

hand, when business begins to boom,
the government clerk usually spends
what money he has saved and then
gets rid Of his full salary every month!
Then the merchant hastens to put big

body gets the benefit of the revival,

A woman was buried alive at An.
necy, in Savoy, recently. While the
gravediggers were throwing earth upon
the coffin they heard knocking inside.
They waited half an hour before max
ing up their minds what to do, and
then, instead of opening the coffin,
went to notify the authorities. A
priest was the first to arrive, and all he
dared to do was to have gimlet holes
bored SO as to let in little air. Final
ly, after three hours, soon after the
knocking ceased, the coffin was opened
and Che woman's cheeks were seen to
be flushed and her eyes half opened. 1t
took six hours and half more to get q
doctor, who when he came said she
had been dead less than six hours
that is, she must have been alive when
the coffin lid was removed.

Too Drunk to Pray.

A citizen Of Montreal lately on a visit
to Ottawa, says Life, while passing
down the hotel corridor to his room at
late hour, happened to hear violent
groans and sobs issuing from one Of the
rooms. AS the door was open, he en-
tered and recognized a fellow Mon
trealer, prominent in political and
business circles, and famous for his re-
ligious and alcoholic tenden cies. He
was kneeling at his bedside, clinging
to the side of the bed, and sobbing as
though his heart would break. whats

shoulder. I'm so blarsted drunk l can't
