The Austro-Hungarians have made
violent counter-attacks but all have
been repulsed, according to the Petit
Parisien's correspondent.
Austrian artillery, protected by the
crags that flank the plateau. has de-
veloped terrific fire against the new

RULES GHOSTS

KANSAS CITY. Mo-, Oct. IL
lSpooksi Are there or are there not
N'hat Is the question.
Attorneys for e. c. Britt based a
315,O00 slander Of title suit on the fact
that w. H. Hardley had testified that
in big house in West F1fty-eighth
street Terrace spooks walked the halls
with hollow footsteps in the eerie
hours.
/ Attorneys for Eardley argued that
there were no such things as ghosts,
and therefore, the mere fact man
said that something which did not ex-
1st haunted" the house was not a
ybasis for a suit.
! Judge Lucas admitted that he had
never met ghost face to face and de-.
clared the law did not have speaking
acquaintance with ghosts. He sustain
ed the demurrer, giving Britt's attor-
neys ten days In which to file an
amended petition In an attempt to
prove slander BY some other method
than ghosts.

DURHAM, Oct. 14.-Another attempt
is being made to solve the mystery
Of the late Boer President Kruger's
gold, which is supposed to have been
shipped in the small sailing vessel
Dorothea from Delagoa Bay in 1897.
This is the seventh expedition in
search Of the vessel which was wreck
ed at Cape Vidal, on the coast of Zulu
land. She carried bullion to the value
of $5.000,oO0,' which 1t is alleged, was
slowed in cement. The present search
ers' plan is to construct caisson
which will enable them to penetrate
the accumulation of sand and ascer-
tain definitely whether the treasure
exists.

CHRISTIAN AMERICA GUILTY.
She ls Accordingly Sentenced {
Lie Long Labor.

Friday hight the Methodist church
here was crowded with interested
spectators who came to witness one
of the prettiest and most interest
ing features of the missionary pro.
gramme-a pageant given by the
Young Peoples Missionary society
of Lake City. This was a court
scene in which Christian America
was being tried for neglect of duty.
The judge, the lawyers and the
sheriff were boys in their teens and
it was wonderful to see each take
his place with so much ease and dig
nifty. Before them sat the wit
nesses-beautiful young girls in the
guise of the different nationalities
represented in America. AS each
was conducted to the witness stand
she told her tale of suffering and
neglect-the Indian whom the white
man had robbed of her lands; the
Italian, whose husband had con-
tracted tuberculosis in a crowded
tenement house and left her and her
"mucha childa" strangers in q
strange land; the Pole, the sweet
faced looking girl with her long
hours and poor pay, and many
others. Then came the witnesses
for the defendant, but these were So
few and so weak that the jury soon
returned verdict of guilty.
Thereupon the Judge pronounced
his sentence upon Christian Ameri-
CA sentence of life. long labor
among those people trying to bring
them to Christ.
The audience was delighted with
the pageant. and they with the
Methodist Missionary societies OF
Klngstree, send many thanks to Lake
City for helping them to entertain
their guests in such a delightful
manner.
