EDINBURG, Ind, Dec. 26.-While a
Christmas cantata was being given at the
Presbyterian Church tonight, Santa Claus
came near being burned to death and a
panic that might have resulted in great loss
of life was narrowly averted. The church

lights were turned out to show up the stage
illumination. Young Freese, son of ]. c..
Freese, was acting the part of Santa Claus,
and while lighting a candle on the Christ
mas tree, his robe caught fire and at once
famed up over his head, and also caught
the tall hat he was wearing. The sight was
a shock to the audience, and before the
lights could be turned on the people, men,
women and children, were in a panic. In
the meantime young Freese had escaped
through bsck door to the open air, which
famed the flames. Parties rushed to his as
sistance as soon as possible, and succeeded
in tearing off the burning garments and
saved his life 1t was found on examina-
ton that while his eyebrows were burned off
and he is quite badly blistered on the neck
and ears the burns are not deep, and he will
be himself again in a short time.

TWO "sPoOKYv STORIES.
One of Which Was Very Easily and
Naturally Explained.

Boston Transcript.
When spiritualism was comparatively new
and we were youngsters, we used to hear
delightful spooky stories about mysterious
actions of furniture and things, which one
never seems to hear nowadays. remember
one about some people who had guests in
vited to grand dinner. The table was
spread with all the dishes. but the meal
had not yet been served. the family mad
it was all on the table. For moment the
servants were all out of the dining room,
and just at that moment all the people in
the rest of the house heard deafening
crash of falling dishes; from the dining
room there came the sound of glassware
precipitated upon the floor and crushing into
fragments, and in the midst of the roar of
this wreck there rose to the terrified ears
of the host and hostess the high, clear note
of the smashing of much thin china. Every
body in the house-family, guests, servants
rushed to the dining room door at the
same moment. expecting to see nothing less
than the table overthrown and every
precious dish on 1t broken, and what did
they behold? The table set in perfect order,
with not thing on it disturbed. What had
made the awful crash? Nobody ever knew.
Not a dish was even ncked in that house
that day. The spirits-so the story ran to
us-Ilad Just mace a terrible gnostly crash

that of friend of mine over an episode

gentleman owned two delightful cocker

FOUND STUFF ON THEM.
Two Merchant Policemen Capture
Two Men.

William Wells, of 925 East Nineteenth
street and George La Force, were arrested
in North Indianapolis last night about u
o'clock on the charge of burglary and grand
larceny, the arrest being made by Merchant
Policemen Lee and c. II. Finehout. 1t Is
charged that the men burglartzed the
grocery store of P. c. Paulson, corner of
Thirty-first street and Northwestern avenue
When they were searched at the police sta
ton a number of pocket knives, packages
of headache powders. candy etc, as well
as thirty -four pennies were found in their
posa ession. The property was identified by
the grocer as part of his stock. The mer-
chant policemen, one of whom has the
eastern and the other the western half of
the suburb, happened to meet near the
grocery store. They observed the men act
ing suspiciously and arrested them. On max
ing an investigation they found the back
door of the store open. Apparently the store
had been entered through the cellar, the
burglars coming up inside through trap
door and opening the back door to make a
way of escape. Beside the property FOUND
in their possession the officers came across a
thousand cigars piled up in the backyard.
Captain Kruger compliments the mer-
chant policemen on their vigilance.

EngIish's-'sThe Countess VaIeska."
Julia Marlowe has never received a warm
er welcome in Indianapolis than that given
her by the enthusiastic audiences which
filled English's at both performances. yester-
day. Her first appearance was the signal
for an ovation. Great changes may be
wrought in two years and, no doubt there
was curiosity to learn what two years had
done for Marowe. So much has been heard
of the development i'm her art such wealth
of compliments had been offered her in the
great cities since she charmed Indianapolis
tneater-goers that many. perhaps, had an
impression they were to behold new act
ress. There was no surprise; no sensation.
From pit to gallery the piquant brunette
beauty was instantly recognized. But Miss
Marlowe is not exactly the same. She has
taken on matronly plumpness and there
seems to be less number of inches to her
stature. Her face is filled out as Christ
mas doll. At guess one would say her bust
measure has increased and the cinging
Bernhard style of gown which she has
learned to wear with easy grace displays
enlarged curves in her figure which for
merly seemed sylph-lke and girlish. Miss
Marlowe has broadened in stage technique,
she is better poser than ever and her
dramatic limitations have slightly widened.
Tt is still Marlowe. but not the dainty,
heart-crushing. innocent little Juliet that
was won't to bare her shapely arm on the
balcony and sigh to Romeo in days past.
There is more woman in her and with the
deeper emotion visible there is a nearer APP
