IT WAS A SUCCESS.
The Park Opening Success in Num-
bers as Well as Enjoyment

= =
Manager Whitley in the last
three days has made several at
tempts to have a musical opening
at his park natatorium, but the
afternoon rains would come up and
the opening was postponed, and
even yesterday afternoon a shower
came up aud itlooked as if the enter
tainment would be postponed, but
the clouds broke up without a down
pour, and last night the people
turned out in great numbers aud
the natatorium was soon filed with
bathers, both ladies and gentlemen.
McCann's orchestra was stationed
on the high divers stand, and dis
coursed sweet music during the
evening, and those in the swim
seemed as if they we're trying to
keep the stroke to the music.
The three or four hundred who
went out to watch the others enjoy
plunge sat about the bank of the
pool enjoying each others company.
The street cars had all they could
do to move the crowd to and from
the park aud it was long after II
o'clock before the last car left the
park, filed with those were the last
to catch on during the crowding
about the station after the enter
taInment was over. From now on
the park will be lighted up nightly
and you can take a plunge when
ever you please.
Manager Whitley feels fattered
at the magnificent turnout accorded
his opening, and he will do all in his
power to make it pleasant for those
who may visit his park during the
coming summer months.

Dangerous Apparitions.

Every once in a while a ghost
crops up in the columns of the daily
or weekly press. This CHASTITY spirit
sometimes assumes the part of the
promenader on some lonely road,
who terrifes belated travellers out
of their wits. Few persons credit
these blood curdling accounts of the
doiugs of his ghOstship, but there is
a tenement which is unquestiOnably
haunted at times. When a nervous
malady attacks the human tene-
ment the manifestations are most
appalling, and usually most violent
at night. Sleeplessness, if nervous
ness is disregarded, becomes chron-
ic, aud the entire system suffers in
consequence. For disturbance Of
the nerves HOstetter's Stomach
Bltters is a thorough remedy, as it
also is for malaria, rheumatism,
dyspepsia, constipation and bilious
ness.

Pana, Ills, Oct. From dark until
dawn the hours were fraught with aw-
full suspense to the band of strikers
who had captured the train during the
afternoon and secured the Washington
Ind, negroes. who had been started for
Pana to take the places of the striking
miners. Before o'clock came rumors
that the negroes at Pana, reinforced
by many deputies, had secured arms
and ammunition and were en- route to
Tower Hill to rescue the Washington
negroes. Strikers prepared grimly for
q battle. Every road leading into the
little town was guarded by a sentry
to give the alarm Of the approach Of
the enemy.
The guard around the captives was
doubled and plans to resist the attack
were made. The colored men were held
in the depot at Tower Hill under a
strong guard of armed union miners un-
til 10 o'clock, when they were shipped
back to Indiana at the expense of the
union. The miners who held up the
train were masked and thoroughly
armed. They executed their work with
GOODNESS and precision. Sheriff Coburn
was powerless to do anything, as the
hold-up was out of his county. and the
plan was not surmised by the authori-
ties in time for the sheriff OF Shelby
county to get to the scene.
