PINCHES A SP00k
Bad Lands Specter Is Laid by
Policeman

A female wrath, wandering about
the bad lands at the hour when grave
yards yaWn, caused some scores OF
duSky deniZenS of the district to for
swear the shooting of craps and
dreaming of gigs last night. If a po-
liceman had not happened along in
time to lay the hand of the law on the
spook, Senator" Grease, "Hotfoot'
and some other lights of Minnesota
street might have been on the mourn
erS' bench now.
The ghost got out of a cab at Scott
Walkers place just before II o'clock.
1t was a thoroughgoing spook, so far
as appearances went, irradiating
CLEANS of light from a costume that
set well on a trim little figure. The
cabman heard the swish of skirts as
the ghost darted up an alley. He
grinned and awaited developments. He
didn't have long to wait. A colored
man wandering through the alley saw
the ghost back of Walkers place. He
emitted one yell and alarmed the
neighborhood. Dusky faces lined door
ways for an instant and then disap-
peared, blanched. The ghost settled
down on an empty packing case and
awaited the midnight hour.
A colored brother who was in the act
of swearing off everything and going
home, told a policeman that there was

has been on the bad lands beat for
some years and is skeptical in the mat
ter of ghosts. He went up the alley
and pinched the wrath. The ghost
was giggling and not angry because
her flaming garments attracted the at
tention of little crowd. She explain
ed to the policeman that she was Miss
Betty Corbitt, dancer in the radium
dance at the Star this week and was
playing ghost in order to win a bet.
L said l could stay out half hour
and scare people, and 1 guess I did,
said Betty.
Il guess you did," said the police
man. Now you hike, before the pop
ulation finds the bones that were
thrown away. You may get into trou-
ble." The girl, her ghost costume still
afire with. the radium paint, was put
into her cab and given her freedom.

FINNISH INSURANCE
COMPANY IS BARRED

The Finnish Mutual insurance COM
pany of Hancock. Mich. was yester-
day refused permission to do business
in the state by State Insurance Com
missioner Thomas ID. O'Brien-
The principal objection on which the
refusal was based was that the articles
OF incorporation did not show that the
funds of the organization We're to be
kept separate. but allowed the entire
proceeds, including the $1,000 reserve
fund. to be used for expenses. Other
objections were that there was nothing
to show that the company was author
lied to do business under the laws Of
Michigan as alleged, and that no pro-
vision was made for an accumulatiye
emergency or reserve fund.
