in all the glory of a summer afternoon

chasm still yawns for its lawful prey;
true. the voice of the Mighty Thunder

But those waters seem now to Sccintil-

strange colors and weird phantom shapes
to dance with a newborn impetus; that
chasm seems to yawn less terribly: the

A Queer Ghost.

TT was Il good ghost story that went
the way of the waste basket recently
up in the neighborhood Of l. street and
Florida avenue-and all on account Of a
little child
For several nights the people in that
vicinity had been wrought up over a
strange phenomenon appearing in a de-
serted building on one of the neighboring
side streets. The building, by the way
was merely temporarily vacant. but de
serted sounds more ghostlike To watch
ers there appeared from time to time in
the front windows of the upper stories
of the deserted building a. ghoulish light
of that particular pale blue color affected
by ghosts OF standing. It's corpselike hue
would flicker a few creepy flickers and
then vanish anon-lights always vanish
anon in a ghost story.
For fact, it was a funny sort Of thing,
as the good people expressed it, one to
another. that this grlIesome radiance
should suddenly light up in building in
such a respectable neigIborhood and
then suddenly blot itself out. without any
more reason for the blotting out than for
the Pickering. Men rushed in suddenly
during these fiickers-only to find nothing
Small and timid servant girls, without
beaus, stayed in after dark, and it bid
fair to become the light that made Wash

The Indoor Death.
rom the Chicago Journal.


tuberculosis is a house disease, espe-
cially bedroom disease. That has been
said many times already, but it needs to
be said thousand times more. In every
large city there are houses. apartments,
rooms which are so filled with tubercle
germs as to be regular death traps. Be-
fore the present crusade against con-
sumption began the number of such
rooms was many times greater. The his
tory of one room in a New York tene-
ment is instructive.
This room, with the two sleeping clos
ninetieS by a ScOtchman. his wife u
daughter and two sons.
The man was found to have tuberculo-
sis in 1894, and died in this room a year
or so later. Before he died his three
children were all infected The daughter
died q short time after the death of her
father. The sons moved with their moth
ease. and died there.
The next to inhabit the room was a
Hebrew, and that race has a wonderful
resistance to tuberculosis. But the in
| lection of the room was too strong. The
| man died Of consumption.
The next family that moved In were
Germans, and the wife already had tu-
| berculosts. She died in this death room.
The next family were Irish. The father
healthy when he moved to this death
trap. caught the disease and died in 1901
Other members OF the family were in
fected, but moved away and were lost to
| sight.
! That is the record of one dark room.
If You have any doubt about the health
fulness of the rooms to which you are
moving give yourself the benefit of the
doubt. and disinfect.

Monks of St. Bernard.

From the London Chronicle.
The monks Of the Great ST Bernard,
who have found it necessary to revolt
against the meanness of tourists mot

ested in our country for many centu-
ries, for their mother house at Mar
tigny formerly held many lands in
England. Mr.. Coolidge mentions in
particular the chapel OF Romford,
which appears among their possessions
in 1177; and Henry II gave them the
hospital of HOrnchurch or Havering,
in Essex. which was acquired from
them by William of Wykeham for his
foundation of New College. Oxford,
which still owns the property and ad-
vowson of the living. One OF the earli-
est detailed itineraries Of the ST. Ber-
nard pass is that Of Sigeric, Archbishop
of Canterbury. who crossed it in 900.
