limp and lifeless. hoarsely calling
to barkeep to "se 'em up agin!"
That was the odd experience that
befell Warner yesterday and
strengthened his belief in ghosts.

CANNES running to the corner of
Front and Stevens, Nick, who can
sprint some himself when occasion
demands, Joined in. Arriving he

But it seems the jolting of the

for when the station house was
reached and the dead man was land
upon the floor life came back to
him.
He sat up first; then he got up
and gaZed around him.

then.
