He was a fat, helpless baby crow.
We named him Tom. and he grew like
the proverbial weed. His prankish pro

dence as the summer wore by. Some
bright objects, such as teaspoons,
thimbles and the scalloped tins called
patty pans, had to be jealousy guarded.
But despite the noisy protests Of the
cook the patty pans continued TO dis
appear.
At last I found the new use TO
which Master Tom had put these covet-
ed articles. had been awakened sew
eral mornings at an untimely hour by
a slight tinkllng, jingllng noise, pro
ceeding apparently from the tin cover

On one occasion / fancied | heard
Toms peculiar low chuckle OF amuse-
ment. Stealing noiselessly TO the win
dow, ! peeped out. Sure enough, there
were Tom and the patty pans. Selling
one in his beak, he would 6y up about
five or six feet, then drop it. The gilt

the ship, two Of the seven men on deck
came hurrying aft and Informed me
that n strange man was skulking about
forward. The men were not overex-
cited, and on my part took IT. that we
had a stowaway on board. | told
them to secure him and bring him aft,
and my watch had almost expired
when 1t was reported that the stranger
could not be found. When | came on
duty again, | reported the matter 10
the captain, and be had the fore hatch
cover removed and sent n man down to
Investigate. We were almost full up
with cargo, and II did not take long 10
ascertain that no one was hiding in
the two or three open spaces. Had n
stowaway been secretcd below decks
II would have been impossible for him
TO come up, but the hatch was removed
to convince the sailors that they had
been deceived by a shadow.
The next night at the same hour the
stranger %reappeared. The second mate
had the watch, and as soon as the af-
fair was reported to him he had me
called. The incident had been talked
over during the day, Of course, but
these new men had not seen the spook.
Indeed they had poked and guyed the
other watch for a lot Of old women.
One man at the wheel and another on
lookout and the other FIVE were stand
ing about waiting FOR a call when the
stranger suddenly appeared among
them. lie was in his shirt sleeves and
had an apron and n paper cap. in
the apron were a lot OF nails, which
jlngled as he walked. This man came
from aft and walked forward on tho
port side, and, though two or three
men shouted after him, he did not
pause. The sailors did not take it for
n ghost, but yet were unwilling 10 fol-
low. However, when the carpenter re-
appeared after about Eve minutes and
was passing aft one Of the men step
ped out to seize him and said:
Look here. matey. stop a minute
and let US know how you came aboard
OF this hooker and whose watch you
arc In"
The sailors hand ciutched the air In.
stead Of flesh and blood, and the thing
continued aft and disappeared. When
j was called. l went down on the main
deck among the excited men and heard
their yarn, and then we took lanterns
and made Q thorough search OF the
decks. ] also sent men aloft to the
tops. We made no discovery. IT was
useless to say to a dozen men that their
eyes bad deceived them. They were
sailors above the average In inteli-
geDce. and the captain was sensible
enough TO take a sensible view Of the
matter. We talked II over al break
fast, and shortly afterwsrd eli boDdf
were called aft. They were told tbsi
u must be some triekery and were ask
ed 20 give their a~ssis.apce IN eolylao

you can almost tell a persons char
meter from the nose alone" remarked n
scientist. An great men have great
noses. The Greek nose, which has no
protuberancc. but Is straight. argues
great sense Of msthctics. Of beauty, but
no character and no power of contcn-
ton.
Large nostrils slow courage. People
Of fearless disposition breathe fully
md freely. All the nercer animals
have dilated nostrils. The dropping
nostril shows histrlonic talent. II the
nose also droops, It denotes a tragic
power, and II only the nostril capacity
is marked for the Interpretation Of
comedy.
Where the nos is thin at the bridge
II shows generosity. while a nose that
Is thick at the bridge argues acqulsl-
tiyeness. When II IS tlptilted. like the

a Ghost
And a Hanging
BY ~. QUAD.



The drm Of Swan & Arkcll. Liver
pool. were extensive traders and ship
owners. and each and every one Of their
ships was launched on the 18th OF the
month. Each enc started out ON her
first voyage on Friday. and when 1t
came TO the fifth ship she was launched
on a Friday. the 18th, named Friday
and began her voyage oil n Friday.
Though the other ships had all been
lucky. there were people and newspa-
pers that thought the firm were carry
ing things a little too fer with the last
chip. This did not prevent her from
getting q cargo and crew for Valparal-
30, however, and | had the good for
tune to secure the berth of mate. We
had a willing crew. Il smart ship and

curious thing that ! am going to give

Tie men. BE scattered them about and
gave them instructions, ana promptly
to the minute the carpenter appeared
This time he showed up forward and
walked aft. aud at a word from the
captain all rushed upon him. They
found no substance. As they knocked
together and some Of them fell to the
deck the thing disappeared aft, as Il
going down into the cabin.
Now. here was a situation. That
there was a ghost aboard even the cap
tain could not doubt. He owned right
mp 10 the men that 1t was a ghost, but
ut the same tine kept the creeps away
by stating that the spook showed 10
desire to harm any one.
There was no scare among the men.
There was never a night Of the rest OF
the voyage that the ghost did not show
up. and by the time we reached port 1t
had come 10 be looked upon os almost
n OF The crew. Here was a chance
for the superstitious 90 talk about Fri
day aud No 13 and an that, but there
was no such talk among ms. I believe
that Il crowd OF lawyers, doctors or
merchants would have exhibited more
nervousness than did our crew Of sail
ors. Il got so that they finally threw
their caps at the specter and asked for
a light for their pipes.
The solution OF the mystery was not
les curious. We had not yet dlscharg-
ed all our cargo when a fearful odor
became plain. and when the last barrel
and box went out We traced the source
aud ripped of some Of the flooring.
Between two Of the ribs we found the
decaying corpse Of a ship carpenter,
whose skull had been smashed In by a
blow from a hammer. The CHASTITY
thing was taken ashore and an inquest
held. There were initials on the cloth
Ing, and a true description was taken,
and no one doubted that a murder bad
been committed. on the run back TO
Liverpool there was 10 ghost. The
finding of the body had laid 1t. The
case was placed in the hands OF the
police. and you may remember what
happened. The name of the murdered
man IS John Walpolc, and q fellow
workman named Charles Saunders was
arrest d FOR the crime. He confessed
al once. IS tho two had knocked or
for luncheon they fell into a dispute
about n woman. and. driven to dcs-
pcratiOn by tauntS of the other, Saun-
ders seized his hammer and gave him n
fatal blow. As the two were alone in
the bows of the ship, then about ready
for launching. be showed the body over
against a rib ana nailed on flooring
enough to cover It. Walpole was miss
ed by the foreman, but was supposed
to have gone Off on n spree. That was
the confession, and 1t brought about
Saunders death on the gallows, and nc
ghost was ever seen aboard of the Fri
day afterward. You won't believe thai
we saw a ghost, but rs tfe-aisceverJ
OF the remains Of the murdered mar
and tho hanging of Saunders were mat
tcrs OF public record you can't very
well get around them.
