Chicago Sympathizer Meets Yellow
 Individual, Makes Demonstra- ton, and Is Rebuffed.

Among the Chicagoans who are enthu- siastically pro-J Japanese in their view ot the war In the east is one man with a business office on Dearborn street, says the Chicago Inter Ocean. This man buys all the extra editions of the newspapers and gets up in the morning as early as he hears the paper strike his door. He has even become such war news read CT that he imagines he can pronounce the names in the dispatches One day MT. Japanese Sympathizer started up Dearborn street At the corner of Mon- roe street he came face to face with a yellow-skinned individual The en- thusiast grabbed the yellow man by the hand.
 Put her there, old mani" yelled the enthusiast. "Hurrah for Japan! Hur- rah for Kirooky! We fixed lem at Hay ching and Layonyoung, didn't we? Keep 1t up, old man" The yellow man jerked away his hand and backed away
 Me no Yapanee. Me Chinee,' said the yellow man. The enthusiast strengthened up little, fled to news stand, bought another paper, and ducked back to his office

IDAHO GHOST WALKS
PLIES ITS GRUEsoME VOCATION
 IN SECLUDED SPOT.
Many Respectable Citizens, Some of i Whom Do Not Use Alcoholic Stim-
 ulants, Vouch for Existence of the Apparition.

1 According to reports in Wallace Idaho, real ghost, the wrath of a man dead dozen years, is plying it's mysterious vocation along the coun- try road near the Evolution mine, be- low Osborn. The apparition, creeping out of the canyon at unseemly hours oi the night, has given a number of trav- Eelers along the road sensations that were far from pleasant at Sthe time. ! Thes9ast persOns to view the specteI are men whose veractty is unques- tfone6 and to whom the appaTition lcos1ld snotNhave cozns as result of an s0ver1ndMiGsnce an alcoholic beverages, for tftex gre not dEsnkfng men Both lof them aver that it was@none other Ytlran ghost whose antics they wit messed, and they are notanxious to re- peat the experiment..
 It was but few days ago that the jappasitiun appeared to the two men as they were driving along the country road near the Evolution mine, en route from Wardner to Wallace, about ten o'clock at night. The team they wer driving was travelling at fair N4AP dFOA$R5 U44G lGV01 TUtSUp WHICH, SUQQSn@ ly an object in white in the form of "a human being, glided from the field through barbed-wire fence into the road short distance in front of the team. It did not clear the wire by jumping, bat as though it were formed of vapor, and the specter swept through the obstruction without mak- Hng the least noise,
 At the same time the horses became frightened With loud snort they swerved wildly to one side and at tempted to turn around and dash in an opposite direction. In their en- deavors to prevent themselves from being tipped over and thrown from the buggy, the two occupants lost sight of the apparition.
 One of them then left the rig and went ahead to see what he could find of the object that startled him and his companion and had thrown the horses into such fear. He could find

PADS IN CARE OF HAIR.
Dressers Find That Customers Pos
 sess Peculiar Mixture of Reck- } 1essness and Superstition.

Recklessness and old fashioned sup erstition in peculiar mixture are shown in the different fads and fancies wom- en follow in caring for the hair. The gasoline or dry shampoo of late the fashionable cause of numerous explos- ions in Paris, Is now frequently but vainly requested at the Chicago hair dressers, says the Tribune.
 It is asked for by the woman who is in 8 hurry, by the one who doesn't want the wave taken out of her tresses, by she who is afraid of taking cold, and by the white haired woman who approves of the peculiar and beautiful blue white tone and silky softness which every pro- fessiona1 hairdresser admits this pro- cess gives to gray locks.
 Tn contrast to this there is Chicago establishment especially devoted to clipping, singeing, and such processes, where fashionable customers come in great numbers at the new of the moon This is at the request of the proprietor, who has imbued her customers with the belief that the oils and coloring matter flow upward at this time, whereas they would go in the opposite direction and devitalize the hair if it were clipped during any other time of the month.

TEN DOLLARS IN THE WASH.

but he had some difficulty in getting started owing to the red tape of the office needed in getting out nearly an hour ahead of time. When he got to the shop, however, there were the same closed doors, the same silence within, an increase of two inches in the depth of water outside, and an in- creasing noise in the sloshing door as it swung again in response to Rosa 1attling of the latch.
 Let me look at MT. Templeton's bundle I left this morning said Ross, Keeping an even tone.
 Nils Tem'pum'n's bun'-hey ?'' queried the celestial. with a face that was as obscure as a moon Tn eclpse.
 John stepped into deeper water be- hind the counter and. looking over a row of shelves overhead, reached up and pulled down the identical bundle to which Ross had applied paper and string five hours before. But Ross was suspicious and he thought he saw ev;- deoces of an untying of his old knot as he looked.
 The Chinese had only the stupidest of bored, sodden, unreadable faces as Ross glanced up at him and went for the knot. Carefully he unrolled the shirt until the pocket was under his hand, when with nervous movement he reached into 1t and brought out the, 410 bill with an ease that a prestidigi-l tator might envy on any stage!
 And to tell that story anywhere, ". insists Ross, always brings out the most unsympathetic comments I ever heard"
 "They ought to have been glad to know that Templeton got his money. back" is the usual remark in return for this.
 At which Ross glares back:
 You're another! I wouldn't look at the change that came over that Chi naman's face again for two ten dol lar bills."

ILLINOIS STATE LINE STOLEN
Lake Michigan End of Mark Disap- pears and Special Survey will
 Be Necessary.

The Lake Michigan end of the state line between Indiana and Illinois has been lost or stolen, and the police ot two states are hunting for it. The mark for years has been stone al One Hundred and Eighth street and Indianapolis avenue. On one side was cut the word Indiana" and on the other Illinois" The stone was four feet long and two feet high, one and half feet projecting above the ground. Not only has it been removed, but the hole from which it was taken has been filled, so no one can tell exactly where it stood. The police believe some householder, more thrifty than I&nest, has imbedded the stone in the foundation of a residence of used it as base for lawn flower pot.
 The next boundary stone is five miles inland, and a survey will have to be made from that point before the place for new Lake Michigan mark can be established.

CHINAMAN GOT LEFT.
sIoK MAN SENDS HIS MONEY TO
 JoHN's LAUNDRY.
Treasure Recovered by Devoted Friend-Chink May Be Willy, But in This Case He Surely
 Lacked Initiative.

Templeton is an unpretentious clerk in a downtown Chicago store. Tn Dearborn avenue, north of Su- perior street, he has an ordinarily small, gloomy, chilly back room to which he goes when he has to. Like wise he leaves it as soon as he can and on the least provocation. Neces- sarily he moved at once last week when 1t was decided that he must be operated upon for appendicitis.
 The north side hospital room was a revelation to him-so light, and airy, and clean, and at the same time warm that the suffering from the disease and from the operation made it all seem like a rest cure from a mere brain flag
 The boys were exceptionally solicit ous-as were some of their sisters and at all times there were dainties or flowers at the side of his bed. Ross, chum who lived only four squares from the hospital, was in every evening, and sometimes in the morning before starting downtown. On one of these mornings near the last of the week Ross called and found that Templeton had some laun- dry work which he wished left at the Chinese laundry under store front in Clark street. Ross made it up into bundle, covering the smaller arti- cIes with big white night shirt, into which he rolled and tied them with the sleeves in true Chinese fashion.
 "Ill throw them down to John as I go by the place." said Ross, tying 8 final knot in the string around the newspaper wrapper.
 But, as a matter of fact, says the Chicago Tribune, Ross did not give to the bundle the airy, fairy toss that he may have had in mind at the hos pital The fact was both front doors were shut, and at the foot of the flight of steps were about five inches of water accumulated from choked gut ter. Ross walked down carefully and knocked, when, after a moment, John, with a heavy face and vacant stare, swashed one of the doors open and took the bundle, without word or gesture.
 Ross was busy enough about ii o'clock that morning when a call came from the telephone, announcing that Templeton wanted to talk with him. The talk was by proxy, however.
 sfMr. Temple wishes you would hur- " oyer to that Chinese place and get th5 bundle you left there this morn ing" called the voice of Templeton's nurse He forgot when he gave the things to you, and there's 410 bill in the pocket of the night shirt. Won't you please hurry over after it?"
 Ross had to tell her that he would.

OBJECT IN WHITE APPEARED.

nothing, and after calming the horses they again started up the road.
 They had proceeded but a short dis tance when the object, with arms ex- tended, swept from the field on the opposite side of the road from which 1t formerly appeared, and took it's po- eition in the center of the road. For some reason the horses did not again take fright and did not attempt to swerve. The night was clear and the occupants of the wagon could plainly discern the object about 30 feet ahead of them.
 The horses were whipped up and urged on to overtake the specter, but no matter how fast they travelled, the apparition continued to keep the same distance ahead. After continuing thus for about 200 yards, it leaped aside and passed tranquilly through the wire fence, just before the team reached the spot. Upon reaching the other side 1t vanished completely, and as suddenly as 1t has appeared. The horses were then stopped and another investigation made, but nothing fur ther could be seen nor anything learned.
 Ten or twelve years ago, near the place where the apparition was seen, a man met his death under rather pe- culiar circumstances. He fell from a porch in some manner and sustained broken neck.
 About year after the mans death number of people claimed to have seen the ghost and number of strange acts were blamed to the spirit of the man who had met his death by falling from the porch.
 During intermittent periods oth- CTS claimed to have viewed the ghost as 1t fitted over the fields, but of re- cent years nothing has been seen or heard of the strange sight until re- gently The two officials are not the only ones who have lately claimed to have seen the apparition, but a num- ber of others who have been walking or driving along that portion of the country have reported that they have observed the unusual sight, and they are unable to explain 1t.
