Children and Ghost a~eriee.

The attempt to keep your children ia ignorance of stories about ghosts fairies, giants and gypsies would cer- sainly prove futile. If they are of 8 nervous and imaginative temperament they will invent new terrors for them. selves instead of the ole traditional ones. A little girl of six, who had been jealously guarded against any acquaintance with nursery bogies and superstitions, suffered from night ters TOTS of a severe kind, in which she always screamed out that she was be- lng chased by robbers. But while 1t may be impracticable to protect chil- dren from a knowledge Of the super natural and mysterious, 1t Is inexcus- able to frighten them with hideous stories or to leave them prey to tn, terrors of ttc solitude and darkness

BOWLING LEAGUE IS FORMED.
seven City Clubs Organize, and Tour
na1nent Set for November.

Seven City Clubs Organize, and Tour
naInent Set for November.
The pet scheme of the hardy knights
of the bowling alley of st. Paul has at
last been realized, and as result the
Phster league is now in existence.
Lovers of the manly sport all over the
city will hail this news with delight, for
league means a tournament, and a
tournament means fun. Two representa-
tives from each of the seven clubs of the
city met last night at the Pfster bowling
hall, and in two hours accomplished what
has been In contemplation for months
The names of the clubs and their repre-
sentatives were as follows: kangaroo, L.
v. Frost, c. G. w. Whiten; Capitol, r.
c. Huntsman, L. C. Painter; Crawford,
Fl. e. Devell A. d. Nelson; st. Anthony
Hill, M. Riley, A B. Dorsey; Golden
Rule, FL. r. Graham. P. Macarthur; Kai
XII, FL. E. Hunt, E. G. Halbert; Amateur
Athletic. J. w. Nolan, F. c. Nelson.
Two Minneapolis clubs were represent
ed, but 1t was announced at the begin
ming of the meeting that it would not be
practical to have the clubs Of the Twin
Cities in one league, so the representa-
tives left.
The following officers were elected for
the league. President, II. r. Graham,
st. Paul; secretary, DR.. H. E. Hunt ST.
Paul; treasurer, L. " Frost, ST. Paul;
vice president, R. c. Huntsman, st. Paul.
T. I. Hartman. who is a representative
of the Bowlers' Journal, and president Of
the Sherman league and the Sheridan
league, both In Chicago, was present at
the meeting, and offered valuable sugges-
tons as to how matters should be ar
ranged. He stated that it would be ad-
visable to have the tournament begin
some time in November. His suggestion
was adopted, and November was the first
date set. Slips of paper were numbered
and the Representatives of the various
clubs each drew one. In this way 1t was
determined that the Golden Rule Bowling
club will first play the Kangaroo Bowl
ing club at the Pfster alleys, where all
games will come off.
A committee of two, E. B. Dorsey and
Fl. ]. Deveil, was appointed to draw up
the full schedule and report to the di-
rectors, composed of those who attended
last nights meeting not later than
Nov /.
1t was then decided to appoint a com
mittee of three to draw up constitution
and bylaws and report at the meeting
of the directors, to be held next Wednes-
day night. L. V. Frost, R. c. Huntsman
and P. Macarthur were named.
According to the suggestions of Mr..
Hartman, two games will be PLAYED each
week, on Tuesday and Friday nights.
An initiation fee was agreed upon for
the various clubs, and the money derived
from this will be used for prizes. The
league will also probably get local busf-
ness houses to donate prizes for the tour

Ex-ComptrOIIer Eckels Arraigns the
Kansas City Platform.


INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. Thames
IL. Eckels, Of Illinois, spoke at English's
opera house tonight under the auspices
Of the Gold Democratic national commit
tee. He was introduced by John c. VIII
liams, of this city, general counsel of the
Vandalia railroad.
Mr. Eckels bitterly denounced Bryan
and his followers. He said he is a
Democrat, and not member of the po-
htical organization which represents all
that is vicious in legislation and asks
that a candidate who is opposed to ev-
erything Democratic be made the chief
executive Of this nation. His speech
for the most part was devoted to a de-
fense OF the national banking system OF
the country and of trusts. He said that
trusts are a source of good to the Ia
boring man and that labor is employed
more steadily and at better wages in
these combinations of capital than it is
in smaller business institutions where
the scope of business is limited He
denounced Bryan for the part he took
in securing the ratification of the treaty
between the United States and Spain,
and said that the people of the United
States should indorsc the administration
Of Mckinley by their votes. He said il
Bryan should be clothed with power at
Washington he would be placed In
position where he could do Infinite harm
to the institutions of the country
