MINNESOTA NEWS,
Stuck by Electricity.

There was an occurrence bordering
on the marvellous upon the bridge that
crosses the railway tracks at Second
avenue and University Me-, Minneap-
oils. The driver of a scavenger wagon
rushed into the Second Precinct police
station and said that several horses
were stuck on the bridge and that no
amount of effort could get them across,
and the man thought some supernatu-
raj agency was the cause. The officers,
after investigation, concluded that in
some manner the bridge structure had
become charged with electricity. Every
time an effort was made to induce a
horse to move the animal was found
entirely unable to lift foot After
considerable work the harness was cut
from the team attached to the scaven-
ger wagon and a rope attached to pull
the horses loose Another horse at
tached to a single rig was treated in
like manner, after which the bridge
was closed and an officer placed there
to prevent further happenings of the
kind. Later the officers cut the street
railway feed wire, and it was found
that no difficulty was experienced,
showing that the bridge in some way
had become charged with the electric

up your hands, and be quick about it,

threw up my hands, for he had the
drop on me clearly. Then his partner,
old Cherokee Bill, long dead, too, drew
a bead on Bill, and we were told to
stop. We had no more than come to
a standstill than Bill Dalton dropped
from the cab and left Cherokee Bill
holding two big guns on us. After
Dalton had uncoupled us I was told
to drive on. We pulled up to the wa

minutes. Then the ghost of the IA

but the manager was on the train, and
he gave us terrible raking. When
we got into Coffeyville Bill and were
laid off under a charge of being drunk.
Detectives hunted for clews on the
ghost robbery for month, and never
found trace of anything real.
"What did the ghost do it for?
Why, to get even with me. Once when
Bill was living he laid for my train, on
which there was big money ship

right, but I was suspicious, and ran
right past him, getting a bullet
through the cab when he found I
wouldn't stop. So when his ghost
told me to go back and couple on it
