seen in a grave yard about one and a

seen in grave yard about one and
half miles west of the village: some
of the ladies of the village determined
to come to the boys aid. So last Sun
day night the ladies made prepara-
tions to stay the fiery demon. The
legend relates that the ghost appears
about half after nine O'Clock, but
about half past seven the brave her.
oines could wait no longer, so all be-
| ing in readiness, away went the en-
tire bevy of ladies and boys for the
grave yard to annihilate Mr.. Ghost.
Some were carrying axes, some knives,
some ropes and last but not least
came Rosa Raymond with the boot
jack. All went well until the west
ern limits of the town were reached
when the boys became afraid and fell
in the rear and by the time Woods
grove was reached some of our young
pedagogues and tool dressers became
so afraid that they turned and ran
home as fast as their weary limbs
would carry them, but nevertheless
on pressed the brave ladies followed
by few of the boys until about half
mile from the grave yard, when of
sudden the ladies halted to rest say
ing they were too tired to 60 any
farther, but lucky for the ladies they
were on an elevated place where they
could see the home of Mr.. Ghost.
But as it was not yet time for him to
appear our heroines suggested the
evening be spent in playing games
and telling ghost stories until the
time of his arrival. When at last the
time of his arrival approached the
ladies began to watch for Mr.. Ghost,
but lucky for him, he failed to ap-
pear and the ladies were forced to re-
turn without having reached the goal,
but the results of the evening are al
most tragic, for when they were
forced to return without seeing Mr..
Ghost, Rosa Raymond became so en-
ragged that she began beating Homer
Moore over the head with her boot
jack. We are sorry to say, but Mr..
Ghost is still at large and any one
wishing to know anything farther of
him can find out by calling on either
Mrs. VIM. Moore, Velva Brashares,
Goldie Evans or Rosa Raymond or by
going to the home of the above named
Mr.. Ghost. ONE WHO KNOWS.

migrant transportation, Acting Sec
rotary McHarg of the Department OF
Commerce and Labor has directed that
hereafter the inspection of Chinese

ment was entered into between the
Secretary of the Treasury and the

plants that under the agreement the
business of carrying Chinese destined
to Eastern points was steadily falling
into the hands of the Canadian Pacif-
ic to the serious injury of the Amer

of the line is only for logging pur-

Polar Controversy Continues to En-

BERLIN, September 21.-The polar
controversy continues to engage the
attention Of German scientists. Dr..
Erich Won Drygalski, professor OF ge-
ography at the University of Munish
and the most noted German polar ex-
plorer, has written an article for the
forthcoming magazine in which he
says that DR.. Cook is thoroughly
scientific and trustworthy man, only
differing from other well known ex-
plorers in that he prepares and car
ries out his plans quietly.
Whoever knows DR.. Cook" says
DR.. Won Drygalski, docs not doubt
the truth of his statements
Professor Manitz, geographer at the
Posen academy, who took part in the
Arctic explorations in 1878 knows DR.
Cook and regards him as a serious
scientist.
Scientists in Drenden strongly favor
DR.. Cook, but believe that both ex
plorers reached the pole. Dresden
geographical society has invited bott
to lecture under it's auspices.
