evening as full of ghostly hor-

Cincinnati, Nov. Coroner Scar
borough of Mount Vernon and police
officials of this city have examined the
body of young Stuart l.. Pierson, OF
this city, who was killed by train
near Gambler, o., while waiting to be
initiated into the Delta Kappa Epsilon
society of Kenyon college. where he
was a freshman.
Coroner Scarborough says that Pier
son was tied to the railroad by fellow
students and left to test his nerve.
1t had been the intention, Of course
to merely brighten him by placing him
on the tracks and fastening him until
lust before the regular ten O'Clock train
came along But an extra train swept
along earlier and the young man could
not be released in time to escape it, as
the coroner believes
Coroner Scarborough says that SINH
lar pranks, but without this terrible
ending, have been played at Gambler
before He has arranged with the coun-
ty prosecutor TO prosecute parties con-
cerned, all of whose names he has.

MISS ELEANOR DEE GORDON
Entertalns Her Many Friends With Unique
Halloween Party in Honor Of
Her Fourteenth Birthday.

The elegant home of Mr.. aud
Mrs. w. l.. Gordon was the
scene Of gay festivities Tuesday
night. Miss Eleanor Dee, the
charming daughter Of this home,
was fourteen and in her honor
was given a Halloween party.
In addition to being brilliantly
Illuminated, jack-o' lanterns and
Japanese lanterns we're placed
in profusion about the house.
The rooms were artistically dec
GRATED with green boughs of oak
and maple and the dining room
contained, in addition to the
many good things to eat and
drink, a large japanese umbrella,
hung with a number of tiny lam
terms of brilliant hue.
AT seven O'Clock promptly the
guests began to arrive. They
were dressed in the most fantas-
tic style and represented every
thing from the goddess of liberty,
enlightening the world, to a prim
puritan maid. Indians, clowns,
Turks, Greeks, Japanese, all were
there, and a merry time they
had. The genial host and charm
ing hostess kept the children
busy playing various games and
shouts of mirth filled the house.

midst of their merriment, a loud
knock was heard at the door. AS
the door was opened, the lights
went out and long procession
of sEeeted ghosts filed slowly in.
This was complete surprise to
the children, and a clamor like
unto that of Babel filled the air.
The ghosts walked solemnly
around the room, refusing to
speak a word, and the identify of
several was not ascertained until
they unmasked. These ghosts
constituted the mothers of the
various children present and was
planned by Mrs. Gordon as a
pleasant surprise for them. After
fishing for their fortunes until

room doors were thrown open
and each young gentleman es-

where delightful refreshments
were served. At ten o'clock the
happy guests departed wishing
Miss Eleanor Dee's birthday
came every week.
