A British Army Officers Story

A BOUT Christmas-tirne some years ago being
officer duty, | seated at the mess
table at Aldershot. There were ten or twelve
other officers present, and among them John
Atkinson, the surgeon-major of the regiment,
who sat my right but at the end of the table
farthest from and next to Russell. | was
sitting at the end of the table and directly facing
the window.
AT about eight forty-fve p. NJ. Atkinson sud
denly glared at the window at his right, thereby
attracting the notice of Russell, Who selling his
arm, said Good gracious, doctor! What's the
matter with YOU?
This caused to look in the direction in which
saw Atkinson looking viz, at the window opposite
and | there Qor the curtains were looped up,
although the room was lighted by powerful central
young woman, in what appeared a soed or some
window from east to west She was about at the
center of the window when l observed her, and out
side the window.
mo person could have actually been in the posi-
ton where she appeared as the window in question
is about thirty feet above the ground"
The second has almost epic simplicity and an
unstudied pathos
little boy in a Yorkshire town lay sick unto
death. His mother had died some years before.
Beside him watched his elder sister and friend
of his mother The friend distinctly saw the
mother come and stoop the boy caressngly.
Next day the boy died.
When the sister and the friend were laying him
out the latter said to the former: had singular
experience in this last night"
Yes, | know" replied the sister you saw
mother. saw her too She came over and kissed

The College Mans Story

REHIND this strange record there seems to be
- a tale of romance and of strife that suggests
the days of SCOTS novels:
In the spring term, 1905 | had gone to bed
unusually late about half past in the morning
and shortly after getting into bed heard a noise in
my sitting-room, and called out: Who's there?'
Receiving no answer, got out of bed and went into

blind was up, and there was still fire burning in

places where witnesses impossible.
The very conditions made the role of the skeptic
easy. But here stories of ghosts seen under
commonplace, everyday surroundings and told in
a plain, matter-offact way that carries conviction.
Two at least of these ghosts in full light,
and all the tales are corroborated by others than
the narrators, which makes it impracticable to
laugh them out of court.
There was always something hard to shake off
about the ghost story; it is old and so universal
Our ancestors, as far back one cares to go, had
ghosts. They were, to speak, part of the house
hold furniture, like the in the organ builders
story which follows, and were handed down with the
rest of the heirlooms.
There many good old houses in England
where there have been family ghosts for generations
regular visitants, to be taken for granted just
as the secret staircase the ruined moat, and the
family portraits. The same thing is true in less
degree in New England, There are old Salem and
Boston houses that have their ghosts, which time
cannot lay; but in their appointed they walk
and may still be seen upon their way.
little while ago science was going to explain
expel the ghosts But they still here. They
have even grown more apparent. Instead of vanish
ing, they have into clearer light, and soon
may be writing their biographies. 1t is in fact,
from the data collected by scientists and skeptics
that these stories taken. The tell the
tales in their words:

Milk Pals And Their Care

Dairy appliances need not be ella
borate nor expensive; the simpler the
better. 1t is important that all pals,
etc, should be made as smooth as pos
sbIc and contain few seams and cor
ncrs. Never use galvanized iron, zinc
or any other metal having a rough sur
face.
Wooden pals should never be used,
as the milk is absorbed into the pores

Saloon Men will Appeal.

Proprictors of saloons in the res
ervation country and their represen-
tatives held a meeting in Lewiston
last week, when an organization
was perfected for the purpose of
having the reservation anti-liquor
law tested in the supreme court of
the United States. At the meeting,
L. A. Jahnke, of Orofino, was
elected chairman, and an executive
committee, comprising Wesley Pack
er, of Sites; w. E. Ralph, of Nez-
perez, and Jack O'Neill, of Greer,
was chosen. Attorney John Green,
of Culdesac, who attended the meet
ing as the attorney for the seven
saloons at Culdesac, was chosen
secretary of the organization. At
the meeting Judge F. E. Fogg was
employed to represent the associa-
ton. The Dick case, in which the
circuit court of appeals held the res
ervation law to be unconstitution-
al, is now before the supreme court
on the application for a writ of err
ror, but if this proceedings will not
admit of a ruling of the supreme
court on the full merits of the ques-
ton, the issue will be as speedily
as possible brought up in some other
form, the object of the saloon men
being to have the question settled
without delay and to thus avoic
the uncertainties of the presen
quais-legal status of the liquor bus
mess on the reservation.
