He is a good hitter, hitting around the 400 mark. fast on his feet and not only pitches good ball but watches his bases like the pro- verbal hawk. This will make a bunch of slab artists that will cut down lots of batting averages for visiting teams. Sis" Hopkins has signed up with De- troit all right though of course they will have to pay Montgofhery for the twirler, and Bruner the other pitcher on the Chattanooga reserve list, will go to Oma ha.

This beautiful atmospheric phenom-
enon, which takes its name from one
of the fairies of medieval legend, and
is specially prevalent at the Strait of
Messina, between Italy and Sicily, has
lately been critically studied by DR..
Boccara, of the technical college at
Reggie. He has seen the apparitions
under three different forms-aerial,
marine and multiple In the first case,
buildings on the Italian coast were
seen projected on the Sicilian coast
beyond. In the second case, arches on
a railway above Messina were visible,
magnifed, and more brilliant than the
real arches, standing below the sea-
line, with no apparent support. In the
multiple Morgana, aerial and marine
apparitions are visible simultaneously
Ali these appearances are ascribed to
variations in atmospheric density,
producing abnormal refraction.---

A HAUNTED HOUSE.
Baseless story Told by JOkers Gave
Washington Residence a
had Reputation.

at is curious what an appetite peo-
pie have for things smacking of the
mysterious and gruesome, said a
Washington man to a Star, reporter
the other day. "There is a whole
lot of superstition in this world, even
among educated people, and it is
amazing how readily people accept
unfounded reports of the mysterious
sort, as though they were determined
facts.
"An illustration of this tendency
to believe remarkable tales came to
my notice recently with regard to a
certain house in Washington which
was said to be haunted" continued
the Stars informant. 1.-TWO young
men were strolling along the street
one evening some time ago with two
young ladies. The conversation had
turned upon haunted houses, and sew
eral tales of frightful mystery had
been related. Before the party of
four reached the homes of the young
ladies they passed small house
which was almost obscured by vines.
It was a rather gloomy looking place,
especially at night and was inhab-
tied by an old couple who lived quiet
ly and peacefully, unmindful of the
turmoil of the outside world.
zone of the young men noticed the
house and jol<ingly remarked that it
was said to be haunted. The other
young man took up the story, and
related few imaginary incidents
which had occurred there in days
gone by. The young ladies evidently
were impressed, and not long after
ward other residents of the neigh
borhood knew the story concocted
by the young man with the elastic
Imagination. AT first, according to
the tale, only one person had been
killed in the house in a mysterious
manner, but in a few weeks several
men. women and children had met
death there i'll the most awe-inspiring
manner. Strange noises, shrieks and
pleading cries were frequently heard
in the little vine-covered cottage
during the 'spookey' hours of the
night, and up to few days ago the
story of the haunted house, which
had been first started in spirit OF
fun and without any foundation OF
truth whatever, was horrible tale,
reeking with bloody and gruesome
mysteries. 1t came back to the
young men few days ago, and they
laughed heartily over the affair, and
then told how the story was start
ed. But 1t is likely that the resi-
dents of the neighborhood who have
heard the story will always be in
clined to look askance at the mod
est little dwelling, and will always
associate it with the other buildings
in Washington which are supposed to
be haunted"

DR.. Cancani, after careful study
Of Italian earthquakes, finds ahat all
such disturbances strong enough to
damage buildings, even to a slight ex-
tent, are invariably preceded as well
as followed by minor shocks. In
other words, an earthquake is not an
isolated phenomenon, but is one of a
series of disturbances. When the
depth of the focus of disturbance Is
small the tremors last about ten
days, when of moderate depth about
three months. and when of great
depth possibly several years. Prof
Omori in Japan has arrived at similar
conclusions about minor shocks con-

Since the Evening News published
the story of the intention of the Staten
Island railroad officials to move the
ferry from Smith street to Fayette,
there has been considerable stir among
those who are anxious to have the
ferry remain where it is. The same
afternoon the Evening News an
nounced the intention of the company,
a movement was set on foot to make
it worth while for the rapid transit
to remain at its present location.
This movement has been so far sue
cessful that the rapid transit company
is willing to await the verdict of the
residents of this city although it
greatly favors the Fayette street site.
Petitions are now in order. State
street merchants will doubtless circu-
late a paper favoring the change.
while Smith street merchants will
demonstrate. 1t seems to be an open
race with the company itself, in favor
of the s - street men. 1t was the
