OLD TIME LEGAL METHODS.
when the Evidence 6f Ghosts SufIlccd
10 Hang Men.

The testimony dfou ghost would not
now count for much in Il court of law
but the day has been when it has
suliiccd to hang man. There was n
ghostly Gccliser in n cGsc with which
the readers of Scott are familiar. Soon
after the ~" an English soldier wan
dcring near Braemar met n violent
death. Years passed and then came n
story OF Il communication from another
world
A farm servant declared that In the
night spirit had appeared to him de-
claring itself to be the ghost OF the
soldier. whose bones. it is said, lay
still unburicd. The highlander must
see to their decent interment and
have the murderers. two men named.
brought to justice. The highlander
promised. but did not keep his word.
and n second and third time the spirit
appeared and upbruided him for his
breach Of faith Alarmed at last and
no longer daring to delay. the man
called companion and went to the
spot which the spirit had indicated
thCiC touiu tiC vi thc iiIul
dered warrior concealed in a moorland
tract called the hill of Christie.
The story of the highlander came to
the ears of an anti-.Tacobite. who caus-
ed the matter to be brought to trial
before the court Of Judiciary. E1in-
burgh. There the tale was corroborat-
ed by woman who had seen naked
figure enter the place OH the night
spoken of by the man. 1t was an age
Of superstition in n district more than
commonly given to superstition. and
the jury seemed disposed to find the
two men charged guilty Of the murder.
but it happened that the principal wit
ness spoke only Gaelic. "Now," said
the counsel for the defense. "in what
language did the ghost speak? p "In
as good Gaelic as l ever heard in Loch-
aber," was the reply. "Pretty good for
the ghost of an English soldier" said
COUNSEL and that question and COM

bar. The jury could believe in Il ghost,

rORSAKEN MINES AGAIN PAY
 PROFITS.
(Froin Saturdays Daily.)

Ever since the construction of the new smelling plant at Humboldt gave such an impetus to the mining industry of this county, old time residents, familiar with the abandoned properties that were producers many years ago before the decline in the market price of silver, have taken renewed interest in the foSsakcn mines, with the result that already n number of these ancient bonanzas are again on a paying basis and yielding handsome profits 10 their operators.
 Among a number of the old mines, which were once the scenes of great activity, and which now promise to again yield handsome returns, may be mentioned a claim located by A. A. Moore in the Walnut Grove district some months ago, which was worked by . California company as far back as 1875 and 1876, and upon which n small smelting plant was erected by the con cern. only to be later abandoned on ac- count of dissention in the corporation owning and operating it.
 Mir. Moore now has two shafts sunk on the vein to depth of 70 and so feet, respectively, from both of which drifts have been run, as well ns tnn' nel along the ledge, for a distance sf 100 feet, high grade silver lead ore being exposed in all of the workings, the p,fystrcak showing n width in places of from four to eight feet. The claim is situated abont one mile and half east of the Pyramid ranch, owned by Mr Moore, within Q short distance of the Red Buck mine, and close to per manent water.
 The country in which the camp is located is but . few miles distant from Copper Basin, n district long noted for it's extensive copper deposits, while the sayampa river, but short distance to the south, had a national reputation for its rich placer gold deposits as far back as the early sos.
