HIS GHOST STORY.

Phlander Johnson in Washington Star.
In the light of subsequent events, |
cannot help being very much surprised
at the manner of the landlord wht
rented me that strange house-the one
by the way, which / afterward pur.
chased, and which am now occupying;
There was nothing suspicious about his
manner. He did not seem especially
eager to get a tenant and did not offeI
1t to me at any pronounced remarkable
reduction. No one was giving anJ
prizes to people who would consent II
pass one night in some particular room,
and on the whole had good reason ia
be astonshed when 1 discovered that
it was haunted. My wife was out OF
the city with the children. / had worked
hard getting the furniture into place,
and was rather nervous. / was lying in
bed wishing that the full moon did not
shine so brightly, when I heard Pc
culiar, regular sound 1t was dull
sort of noise, repeated steadily as the
ticking of a clock ten or a dozen times,
then ceasing for a few seconds, only
to be resumed. I looked all about the
room and could see nothing. The sound
came closer and closer to my bedside
L
more careful survey, and my eye was
attracted by narrow streak Of light
which the moon made across my floor
at right angles to my bed.
gazed at it for several minutes, and
presently l saw a foot, white and sub
stantial, step into the silver glare on
the floor and then disappear. 1t was the
right foot. I still watched, and from
the other direction another foot ap-
peared in the moonbeam; this time the
left. There was nothing above the
ankles. ! got out of bed and threw
the blinds wide open, and in the in-
creased light saw the feet making their
monotonous journeys to and fro across
the floor Frightened? Not bit of It,.
I watched my opportunity to avoid
stepping on either Of the feet-merely
humane courtesy on my part, for L
| perceived corn on one Of the great
toes-and going to the mantlepiece
! picked up a paper of tacks which lay
| there. ] stood up on the foot Of the bed
| and strewed the contents of the pack
| age right and left over the floor. Won
! dered If superhuman feet would pay
| any attention to them and was over
| joyed when they suddenly became mo-
| tionless. Then one Of them was ele-
waited into the air as If some one were
holding it in both hands while the other
stood firmly on the floor. A remark un-
| fit for publication foated sepulchrally
! through the room, after which the feet
made a bee line for the door and dis
appeared never to return. n learned on
| inquiry next day that one Of the for
| mer occupants, now deceased, had been
a patient gentleman, very regular in
| his habits, who had attracted some at
| tention in the neghborhood by being
| the father of twins.

JERMYN AND MAYFIELD.

James owens, who was so severely
injured by a fall Of buck" in the Della
ware and Hudson colliery last Friday
morning, died at o'clock on Saturday
morning at the Carbondale Emergency
hospital, The remains We're later in
the day brought to his late home on
Second street. The funeral will take
place tomorrow afternoon at o'clock.
The Delaware and Hudson Keg fund
will attend the funeral. Deceased, who
was 30 years of age, had been a resi-
dent of this borough for the past thir-
ty years. Two Of his sons had met
with the same untimely death, hav-
ing been killed here in the colliery;
another son was injured on the railroad
in the west a few years ago. and af-
ter much suffering, died from the eff
fects of his injuries Besides the widow,
five sons, Isaac, of Hartford, Conn. !;
Albert, James, Arthur and David, and
three daughters. Mrs. Thomas Ben
cough, Mrs. Philip Tucker and Mrs.
Charles Ohmacht survive him.
The work of recOnstructing the Della
ware and Hudson breaker has about
been completed and today both sides
Of the breaker will be tested today.
This will be welcome news to the
miners as the alterations have cOnsid-
erably reduced the amount of coal
hoisted for some time and consequently
the miners have not been able 10 load
the number of cars they ought for the
time worked There is some altera-
tions yet to be made to the lump coal
schute which will complete the Job
which has been an unique one, the old
breaker having been torn down and a
much larger and up to date breaker
having replaced IL on the same site

till his bark was one long, wild yelp.
Then suddenly the frightful vision dis
appeared, fading back through the
door and barking. When It was quite
gone the dog leaped back on the bed,
watching the door excitedly, and con-
tinuing to growl until the last imagined
sound of the monsters tread had left
his masters ears, to be followed by
stupid sleep.
The question is whether the dog, by
long association, had acquired the face
ulty of seeing what his master seemed
to see, or whether the drunkard
imagined the barking Of the dog along
with the appearance of the monster
That he invented the whole story
should never believe.

DOGS AND GHOSTS.
Two That Acted AS Though They
Saw Phantoms.

The Listener" in the Boston Transcript.
andrew Lang has lately written:
MY friend, Mr.. Blank, h. A., has q
beautiful sheep dog, and lives in a
haunted house. One night Rodney, the
dog, was shut up in the haunted
room. The haunting began like mad.
and the awful noise OF knocks and
thumps, was accompanied by the howls
of Rodney, who was in the very thick
OF it, My friend was away from home,
and the ladies had delicacy about in
terfereing. Next morning Rodney fled
like an arrow, with his tail between
his legs, when the door was unlocked
nor could he readily be induced to re-
enter the room. But he did not let it
weigh on his mind. If it had been rats
he would have collared them, hut as
Rodney can do everything but speak,
the affair remains a mystery"
This excellent storyreminds me of the
tale of the dog and the drunkard. \
printer of my acquaintance, a man Of
Incorporate habits, had little dog
who went everywhere with him, stick
ing faithfully by him through all of
his sprees. In the course OF time the
printer became the occasional victim
of delirium tremens. One time he lay
Oll MS bGlt III a. Hllle IOOHl OH u long
corridor, in boarding house. sleeping
off a drunk. 1t was broad daylight. The
printer woke to hear terrible footsteps
coming down the corridor, accompan-
led by unearthly gasping noises. He
knew, in his soul, that the thing ap-
preaching was a phantasm-a creation
Of his whisky -crazed brain, but never
theless he trembled with terror. The
little dog, lying on the bed at his feet
jumped up at the first sound made by
the approaching monster, erected tn
bristles on its back and growled an
barked fiercely. The tread came near-
er; the dog barked more loudly. "a
through the door, which did not open,
came the monster; it was a devil. in
the shape OF neither man nor beast, but
compounded OF both even though II
struck terror to his blood, the drunk
ard still knew 1t was a phantasm. But
the little dog jumped on the floor, wild
with fury; keeping himself between his
master and the phantasm, he barked

The Presbyterians of the First
church will meet tonight to consider
the advisability of putting in a steam
heating plant. The present furnace
arrangement has been unsatisfactory
for several years and many prominent
members have testified that the hard
est colds of their lives were contract
ed while listening to sermons in a fri
gid atmosphere. An adequate plant
will cost from $1,000 to SO, 600. A large
attendance at the meeting is desired
