THOSE GHOSTLY
HANDS, THEY GRAB
HER BY The NECK

LONDON, July S.--A ghost that
tramps the floors of n haunted house,
moves furniture about, and, on one oc'
casion, has attacked woman, is arous-
ing the deepest interest in psychic and
scientific circles throughout Europe.
The ghost appeared to Mr.. and Mrs.
Nigel Kerr, an English couple, who re-
Gently decided to settle down in town
bordering one of the Italian lakes. They
bought the effects of two elderly Dan
ish sisters. One of the sisters died. Her
death was attributed in part by the
surviving sister to her grief at having
to part with her belongings. The sur
viving sister departed for Denmark.
after making over the lease of her
house, villa Wisteria, to Kerr.
The alleged ghostly visitations began
as soon as the Kerrs moved into villa
Wisteria. Kerr heard footsteps almost
continuously when he was at home.
They seemed more distinct in daylight.
When he was reading, the footsteps
would pass in front of him. When he
moved about, they followed him. AT va
rious times, the furniture on the floor
was shifted. On one occasion, when
Kerr arrived home at night, footsteps
rushed down the stairs toward him and
he ran out in the street in fright. AT
no time was the phantom visible.
The most terrifying experiepee oc'
curred the evening the kerrs were
packing preparatory To moving out.
Mrs. Kerr, alone in her room, was fill
| ing a trunk. She was on her knees,
bending over when she heard footsteps
coming up the stairs. She was almost
paralyzed with fright. She felt the in
visible presence cross behind her. Then
there was pressure on her neck and
she cOuldn Z resist it. The pressure was
| firm and gentle Mrs. Kerr y head was
slowly and resistlessly forced down
ward until her face was almost within
the opened trunk. Mrs. Kerr brought
| forth supreme effort, pushed the
| trunk from her, uttered piercing
Shrek, and then struggled to her feet
| and locked her door. The ghoStly as
sailant disappeared.
| The psychic explanation is that the
| phantom was the ghost of the dead
Danish sister, who was haunting nelth-
er the Villa Wisteria nor the Kerrs, but
wished to be near her beloved posses
sions, which the Kerrs had purchased.
Some of these possessions in the trunk,
ready TO be moved away, are believed
by spiritualsts TO have been the reason
for the attack on Mrs. Kerr

1t is also true that many profit and
grow fat at the expense of their fel-
low men. Large industrial enter
prises in Germany are declaring enor-
nous dividends, and many a director
or stockholder is a paper milliardaire
But, as is always the case, the unbear-
able burdens of debt fall not upon him
who has the money with which to pay,
but upon him who has it not And
the big, underpaid, overworked ma
jority has it not.
AS for the American coming over

He paid six cents for every mark, and

quite bit of money in those days.
His investment, however, cost him
$9,050, for today his paper is worth
scarcely fifty dollars. Almot unbe-
lieveable, isn't it? Nevertheless, it is
appallingly true!
There never was bigger soap bub-
BILE than the German-mark invest
ment scheme into which thousands
of Americans fell and fell deep. Only
the lucky tourist who passed through
Germany or sojourned there last sum-
mer succeeded in benefiting somewhat
from the valuta. Don't aggregate
him by asking him what his hotel
bills were, or what he had to pay fo1

1t is the first time since 1917 that
both branches Of the General Assem-

and Taylor seated the Democrats will
have So on roll call.
While the Democrats had the SEN
ate in the 1919 session, the Republi-
cans controlled the House. In the
1921 session the Republicans had
both the Senate and the House and a
large majority on joint ballot as their
majority in the House alone was 36.
This session no negro will form a
part Of the Republican portion of the
House. Walthal NJ. Moore, the St

represented the bonton Twenty
eighth Ward Of that city, through the
heavy negro vote in the other wards
of that same district: was renor1inat-

defeated at the general electin of
November 7. A Democrat takes his
place in the House.
Seven or eight Democrats have an

"Only Reliable Party" fire-eater to be
Democratic floor leader. 1t takes well
trained exceptional material to fill
this hard position. Senator-elect
Frank H. E'arris will be badly missed
there during the session. When he
was in the House this honor was al
ways forced on him whether he want
ed it or not, The next month may de-
velop the Democrat for this strenu.

Of Missouri Democracy, will see tc
