GHOST
SCARED HIM

Recent occurrences in the house in Flor
oncc where the poet Dante was born
probably will make other people in the
more prosaic walks OF life chary of TAX
ing up their abode under roofs which have
formerly sheltered celebrated persons. or
al least will make them very careful what
trade they pursue when inhabitng such
famous homes, says the Kansas City
star. The one trade most to be avoided In
such circumstances appears to be that Of
blacksmith, judging from the uncomfort-
able. not to say painful, experiences which
the smith now living in Dante's house,
whose shop once formed the bedroom OF
the poet, has just had.
Besides most mysterious noises which
/ were heard all over the house, sufficiently
disquieting to ali good Florenunes. and
uncanny carrying-on by his implements,
which acquired the uncomfortable habit
Of rising from where they had been laid
and placing themselves safely out OF
reach causing some very explicit remarks
by the blacksmith and his attendants. the
most alarming manifestation Of the pres
ence OF a ghostly visitor made itself felt
literally the other day. A big hammer
started mysteriously from the bench and
dealt the blacksmith heavy blow on the
head he says.
After few days of exciting episodes
Of which the above are a few examples the
inhabitants of the house had had enough,

SING PRAISES
OF SONARA

Cactus of many kinds is found an over
the southwest. writes Charles Frederick
Holder in the narrative Of his experiences,
Motoring in Cactus Forest" in tho
March Century; but It is not until one ap-
proaches the center OF Sonora that Il at
tains its most imposing development and
becomes giant forest in every sense of
the term.
Few have even heard of this delta and
for years the wars between the Yaqui In
dians and Mexico have kept the great
state of Sonora which borders Arizona, as
unknown to the average American as
some parts of Africa.
Railway extension was stopped. the
Mexican government prohibited aliens
from working the mines, and the Ameri-
can who wandered from the main high
ways took desperate chances.
Within a few months, by the capture Of
the Yaqm Indians. and their partial de-
portation to Yucatan. an this has been
] changed and ass a result. this fascinating
region is thrown open to the world. Rail-
road construction is rapidly progressing in
the direction OF Guadalajara and the city
I of Mexico, passing ancient towns and
villages unknown even TO Cortez. and
opening mp "a country that in a few year.
will probably become ono of the winter
resorts OF the American continent"
