ghosts This suggested to him gruesome
tale of a bright and brave YANKEE slri
who went to visit friends in Kentucky
A Modem Ghost Story.
One evening shortly after her arrival the
conversation at the supper table dWeit
upon the superstitions Of the negroes. The
recent death Of a plantation hand reminded
them Of the superstition that all new
made graves are haunted by the ghosts OF
the dead for several weeks after burial
The members Of the family admitted that
they were fearsome of 'ha,1ts ana
wouldn't go into negro cemetery at nlght
for any reason. The Yankee girl sconed
at their fears and declared her determine
ton to test the superstition by meeting
the ghost Of the recently-burie pianta.Io on
family tried to dissaude her, but she
would not listen and taking large carv-
ing fork from the table she declared that
if any ghost appeared to her she would
min It down with those long sharp tines.
After darkness fell the young woman
started across lots to the negro cemetery
with the carving fork In her hand She
was gone a long time. Her hostess began
to worry about her and after an hour had
passed the men of the family started to-
ward the cemetery to see what hao pc
come of her. They returned carrying an
unconscious form In their arms, and ex-
planned that they had found her lying
upon the grave with the tines OF the fork
driven deeply into the ground through the
hem of her dress.
It was a long time before she was re-
stored to consciousness. and the doctor
who had been called, forbade them to dis
cuss the incident until she was fully her
self again. A day or two later she ex-
planned that she reached the cemetery
pp;thont interruption, and sat upon the
mound mound, in the dark for several minutes
INVOKING the ghost. AS it did not appear
she drove the fork into the grave with ,t an
arose intending to return to the house.
But at that instant hearing a mysterious
sound she turned to listen, when something
clutched the skirt Of her dress and oraggeo
her down She thought 1t was the spirit
Of the dead, and was 80 startled ana
frightened that she tainted and lay uncon-
scious until she was found

LIKED VOTING MACHINES.
Used in the Chicago Election and De-
cIared a Success.

Chicago, April 4-The efficiency of
voting machines was proved
IN every ward in the city. The election
commissioners allowed four comps MES
to place their machines in some of the
polling places in which voting machines
polling places. They were so distribu-
ted that there was one machine in each
ward.
A canvass of dozen of the
were used showed that Democrats, Re
publicans, and other politicians on duty
at the polls were highly elated over
the success of the machines.
In each precinct where a machine was
used the total returns of the precinct
were reported within a minute after the
election judges announced the polls
were closed at o'clock. In many 9TH
er precincts judges and clerks were
busy for hours counting ballots and
arguing over those that were mutila-
ted One of the great advantages of
the voting machine is that it is impos-
sible for a man to cast a "mutilated
ballot"

PASSING OF A PIONEER.
A. p. Limeburner, First County Super
intendent of Jefferson County, Dead.

Alexis Paul Limeburner died Wednes-
day afternoon al the home of his SON.
in-law, w. T. Brown, at 526 Lincoln
street.
This simple announcement records the
passing of remarkable man who
nevertheless was little known outside
the members of his family and a small
circle of friends. A Kansas pioneer, he
lived on farm in Jefferson county
since 1858 and except for a term as the
first superintendent of public instruc-
ton of the county. always kept in the
background and out OF the public eve.
His neighbors frequently begged him
to become a candidate for office but he
always declined. Had he been less mod
est he might have become one of the
prominent men of Kansas. He was the
master Of five languages and a profound
student. He spoke French and German
fuently and read Latin and Greek like
a college professor though he had never
had the advantage of a university edu-
cation. Living the busy life of a farm
er he found time to keep up his studies
and maintained in his home a studio
where he devoted himself to painting.
In 1886 he went to Europe where he
spent several months visiting the art
galleries on the continent.
During the latter years of his life he
devoted practically all his time to his
painting and books, nor did he lay down
