THEY CALL 1T spOoK NIGHT.
Manner fin Which the Capital Guards
Scare Each other.
Special in Chicago Post.

Tonight (Feb. 23) will be 'spook night "

night of the I'D the ghost of John Quincy
Adams has been seen in the corridors of the
Capitol.
1T was on this day in 1SiS that the great
Adams died in the chamber OF the House or
Representatives" continued the guard. "A
brass tablet marks the spot where he fell.
On the 23d of every February since a pale.
phosphorescent glow is seen to hover over
the tablet. Those who have been brave
enough to stay have related that this glow
slowly merges into the majestic figure of
the statesman. The face has an expression
of sorrow that seems to be increased as the
orator goes through the motion of making
an address.
'It is wordless speech. and the sight of
the noble form of the statesman in the pale
glow, making gestures as If addressing his
colleagues Of a former day upon the floor
of the Senate. has caused even the strong
est nerves to tremble.
After a few moments the light fades
and the sound of heavy footsteps is heard
going slowly down the vacant corridors.
Il tell you, even the bravest of us hates to
see the I'D come round again.
Yes, there are other ghostly visitants to
the echoing halls of the Capitol, but none

and carries on an energetic session in dumb

Sometimes the hurried wrath of Vice
President Wilson, who died in his room in
the Senate end of the Capitol, is seen to go
! quickly through some empty hall. His face
| is always troubled, and the spirit seems to
be hurrying upon some errand of impor-
| lance. Whenever the body of dead legis-
| lator is lying in state in the Capitol the Vice
| Presidents shade enters and makes a visit
| to the bier.
The ghost of General John A. Logan is
| also often seen by Capitol guards lowering
| about the room Of the committee on mill

CAUSE AND REMEDY OF TYPHOID.
Case of ithaca Points a Lesson to
American Municipalities.
Minneapolis Tribune.

Minneapolis Tribune.
Ithaca. the seat of Cornell University, has
had an instructive lesson in typhoid fever
water system, in the midst of wholesome
country and free from ordinary causes of
Infection, 1t suffered q sudden and severe
outbreak of typhoid fever. This was mys-
ferrous enough, until careful exploration
discovered the decomposing body of a horse
on the bank of a stream from which the
city water comes, little above the intake
OF course, physicians and scientific men
know exactly what causes typhoid fever,
diphtheria and other so-called filth dis
eases. But bit of direct and indubitable
evidence like this is useful now and then
TO make the chain of cause and effect en-
tirely clear to the lay public.
Cornell University was the greatest suf-
ferer. CT at any rate the epidemic of ty-
phoid among students has attracted most
attention abroad The university is prepar-
ing energetically to protect itself hereafter
from infection through city water. 1t has
appropriated $4,000 to install filter plant
for all the water used by the university
corporation. Water filtration ought not to
be necessary for little city like Ithaca, in
the midst Of a region of springs, lakes and
streams; but IL the city will not protect its
water from contamination by guarding the
banks there is nothing else for the univer-
sity to do.
The necessity of water filtration is being
pressed more ana more upon the attention
of American cities, especially those that
quently noted the progress of great fiiltra-
ton projects undertaken in other cities.
That in Philadelphia has now gone so far
that the mayor believes that he can pre-
pare an approximate official estimate of its
total cost. This is impressive even from
Philadelphia. The sum of 100000 has al
ready been borrowed and SIS, 1900 of this
has been spent. 1t is estimated that $780,
600 more will be required TO finish the work.
The Philadelphia plant, like that of Wash
ington is being constructed on the old
European model, variously called natural
or 'slow sand" filtration. This is admitted
to be the most expensive to install, though
it is said to be more economical to run.
Philadelphia has about 100000 population;
so we can estimate the size of filter OF
this sort that would be required for Min
neapolis. Perhaps the cost could be scaled
down Il little, taking into account the
| standards of municipal politics and expen-
diture that prevail in Philadelphia.
