FORMER RESIDENT IS DEAD.
q. Mayne, One Time Forest River
Man. Died at. Saskatoon,

/. Canada.
g.. Mayne. formerly a resident Of
Forest River, Is dead and a Saska-
toon, CAM. newspaper makes the fol-
lowing statement Of his demise:
The death took place at his resi-
dence. 422 'Spadina Crescent. Of Mr..
q. Mayne. who vas one of the oldest
OF Saskatoon and the Oldest employee
at. j. +. Cairns store. Mr.. Mayne
came here eight years ago from North
Dakota and 500 after was employed
on the staff Of the Cairns depart
mental store where he had remained
since that time. Mr.. Mayne was held
In the highest esteem by all who were
acquainted with him and MIR. j. +.
Cairns paid a fitting tribute to the
memory of the deceased when inter-
viewed. The death. at n comparative
~ early g comes as a painful shock
to Mr.. Mayne's many friends, DESPITE
the fact that he had suffered pa
ttcntly for years from some internal
trouble.
Speaking of the deceased, Mr.. j.
+: Cairns said: MIR. Mayne was the
been here between even and eight
years. He was. n of the best men
l ever had and was an example to the
younger members of the staff in the
matter of loyalty. trustworthiness and
energetic effort. He was game to the
core. persisting in being at his post
during the past couple Of years al
though much of the time he was in
intense pain. Just a year ago he went
to Soap Lake. Washington, and re-
turned greatly improved; but for the
last few weeks he has been failing
very greatly. So far as I. personally,
am concerned. he was more friend
and associate than employee and I al
ways placed great reliance on his
judgment In matters hat came up.
Among. his associates in the
store there was a great feeling of
depression as he was essentially an
intimate friend and confidant of ev-
cry member of the staff and he has
probably done more to influence the
young members along right lines than
any other n person.
"Mr. Mayne was n member Of the
Masonic. Odd Fellows and Foresters
orders. and leaves q widow and four
children. A sister, Mrs. Turner. Of
Biggar. and family arrived last night
to attend the funeral which has been
arranged to take place on Monday aft

Rev. E. B. Smith officiating.
One or more of the orders of which
deceased was n member will be rep

Hedge had worked. Two of the older
men. Jack Ridley and Bill Swankcr,
went with lights to see what was Gauss
ing the noise. Suddenly they saw q
black apparition appea in front of
them. with arms extended in mute
appeal.
Its Toms ghost"' the tiremen
yelled. as they dropped their lamps
and rushed back into the %stokehole.
where their shipmates were shaking
with that superStitious fear which is
inherent i'm the mariner.
The watch waited awhile to give the
ghost a chance to get Gained down
from No. 1 bunker. When the fire
men went back again Jack Fidley
missed I; clay pipe he had left on an
upturned bucket in Il corner. One Of
the coal passers suggested that Toms
ghost must ave taken it as he was
always fond Of a smoke in his watch
below.
Men in the succeeding watches
through the night missed all kinds Of
things. especially, anything in the eat
ing or drinking line. No more pipes
We're stolen, but firemen who were
positive that their pipes We're filled
with tobacco when they put them
down found them quite empty when
they picked them up again.
The next night, when the "black
pan" watch, which gets it's name from
left from the saloon table that is
given to the mon every night, was on
duty. the mystery was solved by Bill
Swankcr, who went forward to No. l
bunker with Il big piece of apple pie.
which he was going to eat later on.
Suddenly the black figure appeared
out of the scmi-darkncss and seized

for his life back to the stokehole,
where his shipmates were working on

what the trouble was.

bunker where tho uneasy spirit was
supposed to reside. Il head was thrust
out and Il strange voice cried out:
I'm Jim Connolly of Philadelphia,
and I've come to do old Toms work"
The startled engineer promptly pro-
ceeded' to haul Jim out, and asked
him what he meant by soaring hard
working tiremen out of their wits.
Connolly said he was Il coal passcr
and fireman, and had been stranded
in London and walked down to Scout

York. Questioned as to why he had
selected that ship. he replied that the
name sounded good to him. lie was
