This unexpected and unwelcome visitor made its

the household was still sufficiently numerous,

daughters,-Emilia, Susannah, Maria, Mehetabel,
Anne, Martha. and Kezziah,- IA man servant named
Robert Brown, and maid servant known as Nanny
Marshall Nanny was the first to whom the ghost
paid its respects, in series of blood curdng groanS
that caused the upstarting of her hair, and made
her ears prick forth at an unusual rate. In modern
parlance she was greatly alarmed and fastened to
tell the Misses Wesley of the extraordinary noises,
which, she assured them, sounded exactly like the
groans of dying man. The derisive laughter of
the young women left her state of mind unchanged;
and they too gave way to alarm when, night or so
later, loud knocks began to be heard in different
parts of the house accompanied by sundry groans,
squeaks, and tingings
Let the Rev. Samuel Alone
ODDLY enough, the only member of the family un-

upon learning that he had heard of the direfM
sounds his wife and children made up their minds
that his death was imminent for local superstition

Wesley continued hale and hearty did the ghost,
whose knockings, indeed soon grew SO terrifying
that few none of the family burst be alone" 1t
was then resolved that, whatever the noises por-

head of the household. At first the Rev. Samuel

WANTED-BIG MEN.

The history of the past legislature
like that of all others before it af-
fords abundant data for the purpose
of studying the needs of the future
in the legislative line.
During the present legislature
there were men who were sent to rep
resent their respective constituents
who were WHOLLY UNFIT for the
position to which they were elected.
1t is said that there were only a few
BIG men in the state senate anil less
number in the house.
Men were sent to the present leg
islature from some parts of the state
whom the people that elected might
well be ashamed
On the other hand there were men
in the legislature who stood head and
shoulders above the average and they
are the ones who passed the excel
lent laws which go down to the credit
of that body.
Chelan county wants a delegation
in the legislature to which the peo-
pie of the county may point with
pride. Chelan county wants no little
men to represent her interests in the
law making body.
Wanted-To represent Chelan coun-
ty in the future, BIG MEN. None
others need apply.
