For 3 long time there has been a feel
ing Of dissatisfaction with the situation
Of the stage dressing rooms in the Town

GENESIS OF sPEcTER SHIPS
One Instance In Particular 9atisfactor.
NY Vouched for Explains Many
Stories Of Sailors.

Perhaps the most likely explanations
OF the genesis Of specter ships lies In
the extraordinary effect produced at
sea by mirages In the Arctic seas in
particular are to be seen many strange
sights produced by refraction. There
is at least one instance on record that
is satisfactorily vouched for, and which
explains many of the stories current
among sailors fifty or hundred years
ago. One evening in the early 'thirties
passenger ship was approaching Port
Danger, on the, South African coast
Suddenly those on board were astound
go 10 see well-known English warship
quite close to them. SO clear was the
vision that they were able to recognize
acquaintances among the oflcers and
crew. boat was lowered from the
stranger and its crew was observed
70 tumble into 1t. Everything was 50
real. so obvious. that Il seemed impoe.
sible that they could be deceived They
recognized the ship as the Barracuda,
she was too well known to admit of
the least doubt az to her identity.
When the passenger ship arrived at 81.
mons Bay a short time after, every.
pooy expected to see the Barracuda
at anchor But she was not there, and
did not arrive until week afterwards
Inc hrst thing to do was to compare
notes and explain the mystery. II was
round that at the time of the war
SHIPS being seen near Port Danger
sne was at least three hundred miles
away. THERE'S no room for doubt as
70 the details Of the story. People do
not imagine with such unanimity as
70 admit OF any explanation other
than reflection or refraction in cloud
or fog bank.

BOSTON on VlGILlkcE BELL

Out in Petaluma. CAL. town
about forty miles from San Fran
cisco, is cracked bell with a
history. 1t was cast by Bo. ton
firm and taken around the Horn to
San Francisco in 1856. Here it
became the tocsin for converting
that grim court, the vigilance COM
mittee, and during its service
sounded the death knell of many a
desperate. After most of the
bad men" had been eliminated
by the hempen route it was pur-
chased by the First church of
Petaluma. where it became town
institution, not only summoning
the faithful to worship, sounding
the fire alarm, marking time for
the village clocks, but mingling it's
brazen tones on all occasions of
rejoicing. Its metal tongue was
especially active during the later
part IF the Civil War in celebrat-
ing Union victories. This aroused
the ire of southern sympathizers,
who stole it one night and hid it.
When it was finally recovered and
rehung some vandal with sledge
hammer, ruined its voice forever.
Now the little old church is to be
torn down and the crippled OLD
bell goes to the scrap-heap unless
sentiment saves it.-Boston Trans

The Entertainment and Lecture
Course to be given under the
auspices of the High School Liter
airy Society will begin next Tuesday
evening, Nov. 20 when the Central
Grand Concert Company will be
here. Remember, there is no one
connected with the movement who
is making any money out of it.
The movement that prompted the
teachers to take the matter up was
that the students of the High
School and the upper grades of
the Public School might hear and
see some of the people who visit
the large educational centers. We
have no hopes of making more
than the running expenses. We
feel that the people who are in
business or earning money are
legitimate prey, and consequently
are charging the public $500 for a
season ticket covering the four
numbers, thus making it possible
to sell tickets to the High School
and Public School students at 81
for the season. Do you feel like
helping us to bring some first class
talent into the town during the
winter? If you do please buy a
season ticket. 100
