"Ghost" Barred Murder.

Owner after owner had come and
gone. Carl Logies purchased the farm
about a year ago. Whenever he went
to his barn at night, Logies declares,
he would see "a white, wraith-like fig
ure" walking about.
At times, he says, he followed with
his gun in hand, and 1t always disap-
peared in the direction of the well.
Determined to find out what caused
the apparitiOn, Logies cleaned out
the old well, which had been filled
with stones. He came upon the body
of Lipenstick.
Sheriff Sphinx was called, and he and
his deputies suspected murder. The
next day the sheriff ordered the body
buried, and now the ghost is gone.
Frank Lernan, who owned the farm
at the time Lipenstick disappeared,
is in the Lake county Jail. He is
bound over to the grand jury on
charge of murder.

LOST COUPLE NEAR DEATH
tains in British Columbia
Almost Starved.

Prince Rupert, B. C.-Lost In the
mountains, Peter Stafford and his wife
were found recently in the last stage
of starvation by two constables on the
Kayer river, 80 miles from Skeena
Mills. The couple had not eaten real
food for 20 days, the only thing that
kept them alive being soup made by
boiling strips Of old beaver skin. Stat
fords condition was pitiful, as he had
been suffering from tuberculosis for
some months. How he was able to
survive the terrific experience is a
mystery to physicians.
Stafford and his wife were discov-
cred in a small tent pitched under a
big tree. The man, too weak to move,
was placed in canoe and the woman
was assisted along the shore until a
point % miles from the railway was
reached. Here they were left with
friends with enough food to last six
weeks and a store Of medicine was
sent in.

PRINCE GEORGE Is CROWNED As
PoPULACE RIOTS IN
ATHENS.
CONSTANTINE RESIGNS
MUTlNOuS GREEK ARMY AND
CITIZENS cLAMoR FOR
REPUBLIC.

Athens.-Kirg Constantine has aD-
dicated in favor of Crown Prince
George. it was officially announced
here.
In message to the Greek people
the king stated that for the national
interest, peace and unity, he had aD-
dicated in favor of the crown prince.
The king, when faced by revolt IN
the army following defeat by Turkey
tried to save his tottering throne Dy
the declaration of martial law but TINS
was of no avail and he stepped out In
favor of his son.
Constantine relinquished the throne
when reports were received that trans
ports loaded with mutinous Greek sol
diers were speeding toward the capl-
tai.
It was believed that bloodshed would
have resulted if the king had held on
to his fast diminishing power much
longer
The abdication of Constantine fol-
lowed closely the resignation OF the
cabinet
Prince George took the oath as king
at the palace before the members OF
the retiring cabinet.
The abdication of King Constantine
was preceded by riot of the popu'
lace in the capital. The rioters served
an ultimatum on their king in wmch
he was given but one hour to step
down from the throne.
The king Immediately called Gen
eral MetaXaS into conference, at
which it was decided the situation
was in the hands of the revolution
lists.
The official abdication of Constan,
tine was then announced.
Constantine stated that he accepts
this swift revolution as the voice OF
the people. Three hundred army of
ficers visited the king and urged the
formation of military cabinet. They
were ready, they said, to put them
selves at the head of the people to
combat the revolutionists, maintain
order and defend the king.
A street demonstration by proml
nent citizens acclaimed VeniZelos and
republic There was some rioting
and former Minister of Agriculture
Sideris was wounded
The Venizelist newspapers assert
that the revolution, which up to the
present has been bloodless, has spread
throughout the entire country.

NEW PICNIC SPORTS.

The picnic kit is the latest thing in
ready-made recreation in city which is
taking its municipal playing seriously,
and it isn't a bad idea, at that. The
purpose of the outfit is to replace the
time honored fat mems race, fat women's
race, CREASED pig chase, and all the rest
Those somewhat primitive pastimes were
fun, of course, for some people, but they
were tragedies for others, and they left
a lot of picnickers standing on the side
lines with little to do but overeat.
In the town in question a picnic kit
may be rented from the city's recreation
council or the local Y NJ. G. A. 1t va
ries in size according to the needs of the
proposed picnic party. Its contents are
about as follows:
Two basket balls, one volley ball, one
volley ball net, 60 feet of rope, "a bean
bags, two playground balls, two bats,
six Indian clubs, eight horseshoes, four
stakes, several tennis balls, one hurl
ball, one clothesline, IS cubes and six
tin pans 1t is an unbeatable collection
and permits of many games and varia-
| tons of games. limited only by the in
genuity of the bright minds of the crowd.
1t really is a fine idea for the big
group picnic-church, school or club
and it holds a hint for the Individual
family picnic party. An indoor baseball
tucked down in the picnic basket along
with the sandwiches and chocolate cake
will help to eliminate that after-eating
lethargy and will give weary parents q
rest from fretful children. The picnic
kit is an institution worth adopting gen
orally.

LOCOMOTIVES AND LAUNDRY.

The Staten Island railroad has been
arrested, on complaint of the New York
city health department, because it made
too much smoke. The interesting thing
about the action is that it was based
less on health considerations than on a
desire for clean laundry. The house
wives of Port Richmond had aroused the
health department by complaining that
the smoke and SCOT from the locomotives
ruined their washing.
If similar action were taken wherever
a similar offense was committed, the
railroads of the country, with negligible
exceptions, would be kept busy appear
ing in court and kept poor paying dam
ages. Likewise the factories of the
country.
And soiled laundry is only one of the
many offenses resulting from present
methods of combustion in the develop
ment of power for transportation and
manufacture. The property damage
done by soft coal smoke and its by
products is vast. The waste of fuel is
great The health of the public is men
aced Vegetation is injured. Civic
beauty is spoiled.
The tendency is to eliminate this evil,
wherever the use of soft coal is neces-
sary, by the use of better combustion de
vices and more efficient firing. The ulti-
mate solution, no doubt, is the develop
ment of power at the mines and its
transmission to the places where it is
needed in the form of electric current.
