a REAL GHOST. THEY SAY.
A Phantom Object Frightens the People OF
South Williamsport.

People living IN South Williamsport
are greatly agitated by strange ap-
partition, which appears nightly,-that
of headless woman dressed in long
flowing white robes.
Sunday night young woman ran
screaming into the residence of a Mrs.
Houser and said the figure had walk
ed by her side in lonely place along
the edge of high retaining wall skirt
ing a dark ravlne anG cavorting in a
most terrifying manner. A young
man returning from visit to his girl
saw it in the shape of phantom dog,
which, when he kicked at it, as he did
repeatedly, was always far enough
away to miss his foot, finally vanishing
entirely, when he lost his nerve and
ran home.
Superstitious people believe the
ghost is that OF an unknown woman
whose skeleton was found on the
mountains back of Duboistown. Many
are afraid to venture out after night
fall.

Burglars Sunday night entered
the home and store Of Joseph o.
Donnell, Forrestville, and carried
away several hundred dollars worth
of goods. Mr.. and Mrs. O'Donnell
were both chloro!oi med. when the
burglars worked at will. The same
night burglars entered the jewelry
store of |. II, Doutrich, III Orwigs-
burg, and stole about $500 worth of
iewelry. There is no clue to either
burglary.

A Crippled Issue.

It's wonderful how quiet Repub-
licans are on some of their former
issues. Last year the principal
stock in trade of the State ring was
the Little Red School House. "
1t was in all Of their papers, their
speeches, their songs, their pictures
and their thoughts. 1t was the
child of their creation and bless.
ing that they had built up, pro-
tected and handed down to us.
There was no going back on the
public schools, or the record of the
Republican party, as their advocate
and defender. All the intelligence
and good and glory that had come
from education and enlightenment
was due to it, and they were its
daddy. How different now? Do
you ever hear one speak of what his
party has done for the public
schools, or how it fosters and cares
for them -? Not much. They did
that once, boastfully and effectually.
Il was only last fall that the air was
full Of it, and the State reverbera-
ted from end to end with their hur-
rahs for the Little Red School
House." and the glorv it had
achieved. But it is all over now.
A condition arose that forced them
to choose between the corporations
and the schools. To save the for
mer they attempted to strike down
the latter, and, as a campaign issue,
the public schools, their progress,
usefulness, future welfare or bene-
fits, are now as useless and obnox-
ious to them as are the ten COM
mandments to those proselyting for
the devil.
How suddenly some people must
change. How plainly the hypoc-
risy of some is exposed. That
million of dollars stolen from the
schools seems to have played thun-
der with their public school issues.

Moving on the Enemy.

A most important meeting of
Democratic editors and those in
charge of the Democratic organiza
ton of the State was held in Pitts
burg recently. The situation in
the State was thoroughly gone over
and a line of action adopted, which,
if earnestly carried out, both by
the organization and editors, is sure
to give the state ring more trouble
than it has yet anticipated i'll its eff
forts to continue its corrupt rule
and debauching influences. At the
instance of the editors steps were
taken to organize a movement that,
if successful, will minimize the
frauds perpetrated at the polls in
Philadelphia, and will secure, as
far as it is possible, under our III
adequate election laws, fair elec-
tions i'll that machine manipulated
and repeater-ruled city. Efforts to
thoroughly organize and arouse the
Democratic vote of the State are to
be made in every school district,
and with a full Democratic vote az
the polls, reasonably fair elections
i'll Philadelphia, and such help as
the independent Republicans may
give, there is no reason under the
sun why the end Of Quayism, ring
rule and its rottenness and robber-
les should not be in sight. - Belle
