POLICE FIND
"GHOSTS"

PORTLAND, Ore, Aug. 90
Ghosts that insisted on ringing
all the call bells in saloon at West
Park and Morrison streets were eff
fectually laid by Special Police
man Fitzsimmons early today.
For several nights the bartend-
ers and patrons of the drinking en-
porium attempted to puzzle out a
solution for the mysterious ringing
of the bells.
Finally Fitzsimmons was called
in to LAY the ghosts"
Rats he calculated, after half
an hour spent investigating.
Then he showed the proprietor
two rat holes in the wall. Within
could be seen the electric wires
with the insulation chewed off.
Every time rodent passed through
the wall its body brought the eX-
posed wires together, closed the
electric circuit and the bells rang.
