The Ghosts Captured.

Replacing the parcel under the
blankets in as nearly as possible the
same condition and position as when
we found it, we drove rapidly back to
Hoskins stable and were successful
in safely housing the horse and wag-
Jon before jerks put in his appear
~ance.
- Now" said MacArdel, "all we have
to do is to tip off that man at the sta
ton, and we can keep jerks in the
dark until we are ready to bring him
up with round turn"
We walked the short half mile to
the railway and found no difficulty
in bribing the fellow to silence con
cerning the trunk. laying stress on
the alleged joke that we purposed
practicing on the driver of the 'ex-
press"
You see," said MacArdel, as we
strolled leisurely along the grassy
roadside the whole business is plain
enough now. This Bruce woman start
ed ghost story when she first came
here purely in spirit of idle gable
and to impress the wondering natives
with the knowledge of the homes of
the nobility in England. Then, when
her boy was killed. she tried to make
trouble by again circulating these
yarns and frightening the men off the
place."

CHAPTER x.-Contnued.
I'VE thought it was he and Mrs
Bruce that we saw last night" said
MacArdel, pleasantly. We were out
enjoying the moonlight when they
drove down the road
Didn't see nuthin else, did ye?"
asked Hoskins, in a confidential tone
why, no." laughed MacArdel
Why do you ask?"
WAL said Hoskins, drawing near
er and speaking seriously, Jerks says

went past him, daown tn road jest as
he wuz a-turnin' into TIL pike. His hoss
give jump as they went scootin by,
an it threw him agin tn dash an cut

looked scared enough to ha' seen 20

Was his hand badly hurt?" asked.

sharply. I'VE didn't see any ghosts
last night, and all your friend jerks
could have seen was ourselves, in our
shirt-sleeves, walking back of the
hedge by the river road. You remehl-
ber how his horse jumped and ran,
don't you, Ware?"
Certainly" l replied obediently
I'VE wondered what the trouble was,
at the time
Now, then, Hoskins.' continued
MacArdel, looking at his watch and
speaking rapidly. Don't let jerks hear
word about this business. He don't
know that had trunk at the station,
and, if we can get back here before
he wakes up, he needn't even know
that we've had his wagon
No fear of his wakin' up fur a good
bit yet grinned Hoskins. He wuz so
scared when he got in that he liked

Il could stop him.
\ so much the better" said MacAr-
den, gathering up the reins. Now, re-
member what l say, and keep this
business to yourself. Well have some
fun with him before he gets through"
We drove as rapidly as the tired
beast could carry us, until we reached
the gate leading into the stable
grounds, when MacArdel pulled up
suddenly and said:
Let's dump the trunk in here. We
can carry it up to the house after we
get this horse and wagon back where
they belong. No one will touch it
here
AS soon as the trunk was on the
ground by the side of the roadway,
MacArdel dragged out the parcel from
under the blankets and, opening it on
the grass, began to examine the pieces
minutely.
After a moment he Strengthened up
and exclaimed;
Its just as l thought. It's the same
stuff that we found last night. and
the scoundrel went back and got 'en
all after we had gone to bed!"

Boise. Idaho.-lt seems almost be-
yond the range of possibility at this
time that the Haywood jury will agree.
Then what?
Will the accused be released, rear
rested and turned over to Colorado
authorities for trial on conspiracy
charges in that state, or will an at
tempt be made to secure another jury
for a rehearing of the Steunenburg
murder charge in Boise?
These are the questions that are up
permost in the minds of those most
vitally interested in the result of the
trial now in progress. The situation
is remarkable in many ways.
Three men are Indicted. Three men
are to be tried. They are charged with
conspiracy and completely in the mur.
der of a former chief executive of a
state. the entire population of which
does not exceed that of Denver.
The history of the labor troubles
leading to the death of this one-time
governor is known by heart to nearly
every man, woman and child in Idaho.
A majority of those eligible for jury
duty have a firmly rooted conviction
that the federation officials are either
innocent or guilty.
Three weeks have gone by and a
jury has not yet been secured in the
most populous county in the state.
They will be compelled to base their
verdict largely upon circumstantial
evidence. They will hear the testi.
mony of Harry Orchard, the nature of
which, it is promised, will be startling
in the extreme.
All the 100000 inhabitants of Idaho
will read the disclosures Orchard will
make. They will base opinions on
what he tells the court and jury. In
the very nature of things. these read
ers will be disqualified for jury duty.
How, then, can a jury be obtained

SURELY WINS THE PALM.
One Mean Man Who Outdoes Some
Others.

Many stories have been told OF
mean men, such as he who used a
wart for collar button and he whose
birthday gift to his son consisted in
washing the windows SO that the
lad might watch the cars go by,
This man, however, seems to have
won the palm:
There was an extremely mean man
in New Hampshire, who was the pro
prietor of a hotel By his direction
rules were posted in the hosiery for
bidding almost every conceivable priv
ilege to those not guests of the place.
There was absolutely no chance for
the casual loafer to get newspapers,
pen, ink, stationery, etc. There We're
not even free seats in the office.
One day, relates the Success Maya

loafer gazing at the old clock that

sign was placed over the clock. 1t

the guests of the hotel only"

Gossip.


Crossball, the reformed game of
basketball. invented by DR.. Dudley a.
Sargent, HaTyard's physical director,
has not proved much of a success
among Harvard men. They call it too
complicated. and say there is not
enough excitement to it. Captain
Burnham and acting Captain Amberg
have agreed that it is not in their
opinion a successful substitute for the
real basketball they have been accus-
somed to play. They have passed it
over lightly, and have kept at the old
game. Only among the women of the
Sargent gymnasium has the game
proved popular, and daily they prac-
tice it in the Enclosure off Jarvis
street. They like it better than bas-
ketball, because it is not so rough. \
Few weeks ago the game due to the
ingenuity of DR., Sargent looked prom
sing, aud in it's first few trials good
sized number of Harvard men We're
anxious to play. Then the interest
suddenly semed to die down until
during the past week the special court
on the old Holmes field is practically
deserted. The only redeeming fea-
ture of the game was, Harvard men
say, that it did away with team work
and almost with roughness in accord
AnCe with the views of President
Eliot. But the students found consid-
cradle difficulty in playing 1T There
were four goals that puzzled the men
who lost their gauge of directions
when chasing the ball, and it seemed
almost impossible for the men to keep
inside of the chalk lines that were re-
Quired. Then too, the scores were all
of a high negative degree, because
every missed try at a goal counted
one off the score DR.. Sargent has not
been in the least disconnected by the
initial lack of success of his sport,
saying that it was only an experiment
at best, and that by its mistakes he
could work out changes that would
