DR. ATCHERLEY GOES OFF
ON ANOTHER GHOST TRAIL
Tells the Advertiser About Sewer Conspiracy
in Which Drs. Wayson and Brinckerhoff,
Chester Doyle and Others Figure.

81 have come to tell You the secret
of those Punchbowl ghosts said DR..
Atcherley affabiy as he entered the
editorial room of the Advertiser yes
terday afternoon. " You remember that
the girl up there reported voices at
first, but that the people who came in
afterward could not hear them. Then
things began to fly about the room. L
find that men in the storm-sewers who
prosecute people were then practising;
and being heard they went into the
attic of the Punehbowl house and per-
formed their poltgeist tricks PoIt-
geist?' Yes, that is German for ghostly
manlfestations-so as 70 divert atten-
ton from their sewer scheme. That
being done they were satisfied; but
they are in the sewers again.
''Do you know how the polt-geist
tricks We're performed7' was asked
of the Doctor?
sob, yes, it s very simple. A little
hole is bored in the ceiling and a
weighted black thread with a hook
on it is swung about so that it catches
hold of things and makes them move.
If the string is seen it is simply
dropped.
Why should anybody take this
trouble2'' asked the reporter.
''Oh, you see the sewer gang, which
is organized to bedevil people, thinks
such things throw detectives off the
track. Some time ago L head the voices
of these people and later they put a
man in the attic of my house on EN-
ma street. He is there now and uses
a telephone. | often talk with the
people he is talking to and make them
laugh, - said the Doctor with the ut
most seriousness.
'.Why don I you rout the man out -
'tOh. [ went up there one night but
returned to get a lantern. Then he
escaped. The people who saw him go
through the place where the telephone
wires enter thought he had been there
to repair them. He is still there. He
came back.
Merely as an eff hand incident. the
| Doctor said he was sitting up with a
loaded shotgun every night from Ii
clock until three or four in the
morning. When asked why he did not
shoot through the ceiling and at least
scare the enemy away, he said if he
did that he would be sent TO the asy.
lum. - You know what juries are
here, he added
".Of course, I shall shoot the mar
if he comes down, went on the Doc
tor. but / think he won't. He is toc
busy telephoning to the men in the
sewer. The shotgun keeps him away
