STRANGE HAPPENINGS
IN D STREET HOUSES
Uncanny Sounds Disturb the
SuperstitiOus.
EXPLAINED IN VARIOUS WAYS
Shaking Probably Due to Blasting by
Railroad Company in Ecking-
ton Caf Yards.

Do you live on Q or Quincy
Street northeast; and If you do.
does your house shake uncannily
somewhere between 10 a. m. and
p. m. nearly every day2 This question
Is important. as q number Of people in
that neighborhood have been frightened
by signs of daytime ghosts, and they
want your opinion.
Between the hours named houses on
the two streets have been in the habit
of shaking. Doors have swung to with
out any visible signs of a shove. dishes
have ratified, uncanny sQueakings have
been heard joists have groaned and
muttered most dismally, tender maidens
have been frightened and hardened sin
ners have stopped in their careers be-
cause Of the mysterious happenings
That the trouble is nobody knows. The
superstitious have asserted that some
of the Indian braves who whooped
around the site of the National Capital
have come back TO celebrate the victory
of the Tammany wigwam in New York,
but scoffers who have seen the peace
able deputations Of red men on visits
10 the Great Father have not attached
UGH Importance to this theory. There
l..as at first some thought that COLLINS
were about TO ''ketch' the northeast and
spirit away some Of its bad boys, but
that theory has also been discarded.
Looking for Cause.
Now that the first flush of excitement
is over. the heads Of the various house
holds are prying around in their cellars
with candles and crOwbars trying TO find
a physical reason for the disturbances
and have come to the conclusion that II
is due TO the blasting for the new rail
road yards Jean S. Finney, of 80 .
Street, was the first to suggest that the
explanation lay in the dynamite activi-
ties OF material Italians, rather than in
those Of Indian or distilled spirits. and
so Informed the District Commissioners.
The District engineers looked into the
matter and said the blasting could not
affect nv Ftnney, as II was $50 feet
from his house. but the fact remains
that the houses do shake. Among those
which are unsteady on their pins Is the
lexington school house, and row OF
houses on Quincy Street, and the resi-
dents attribute the disturbances 10 the
blasting. despite the cynicism Of the en-
gineers.
