A Kentucky lawyer was slaml
in? on tho steps of the Covin";,
ton iiostotlice the otlier day,
when an old colored man canio
up and, touching his hat, nsked:
"Kin you tell nu, is (lis de
plaro where dey sells jK)stai:o
stamps?"
"Yes, sir; this is tho plaro,'' re
plied the lawyer seeing a ehanee
for a little quiet fun; "but what
do yon want with postage stamps
uncle?"'
"To mail a letter, suh. of
course."-.
"Well, then, you needn't both
er ahuut stsmps; you don't have
to put any on this week.''
"1 don.t?"
"No, sir."
"Why- fur not?"'
"Well, you see, the conglom

differentiated the parallelogram
no much that the consanguinity
don.t emulate the ordinary effer

The old man took off his hat,
dubiously, shook his head and
then with a long breath remark
ed: "Well, boss, all thut uiay be

Ghost Story from India.
Tndou Olobo.
Tim InUist chost i'xirv ia re
corded in The Frlerd of.Lu-mah
and It Is attested by Bervora! eye
witnesses, who saw the ghost,
not during the night, a Is usual
ly tho case, but in broad day
light. It happoned in the Mon
yinzu quarter of I'akokku a few
days ago. In that Quarter of trie
town live a married couplo, the
husband's name is Maung Yun
and his wlfo May Neain. They
had a littlo son two years old,
who, nfter a sirious illness died
Tho baby was buried in the com
etery outside the town, his era
die serv ing as a coffin.
Tim father was very much de
jected at the loss of his little one
and, unable to repress his grief,
went to tho cemetery two days
after tho burial. It was about 8
o'clock in the morning. At the
entrance of every Huruiese bur
ial place there is a z.ayat, or reRt
house, wherein people gather
and chat and smoke or tako shel
ter from the sun or rain when
ever they accompany a funeral.
On entering tho graveyard
Maung Yun was not a littlo sur
prised to see his son, or at least
some one looking exactly like
Ids son, playing In the r.synt,
near the cradle. I!o was at first
horror struck, but p .temal affect-
on getting tho upper nann, he
approached the baby, and to en
tice him nave him one pice.
The boy took the com readily
and offered not the least resist
ance when the father took him In
his Ri ms and carried him away.
Maung Yun could make nothing
out of it but that tho child had
been buried alive and that some
body attracted soon after by the
sounds coming from the grave
had dug him out and placed him
in tho r.ayat. Full of joy, he car
ried his treasure home.
At the entrance of the town,
and about a call's distance from
his house, he met a neighbor,
Ma Sein Pwin, who. wondering
at what he saw, screamed out:
"Is that you, Ko Yun, carrying
homo your little sun!" As soon
as the child heard tho voice lie
began moving about in his fath
ers arms. Mali Sein Twin and
another woman came to take it,
and a short struggle ensued be
tween them and the boy, and
Maung Yun suddenly lost his
senses and fell heavily to the
ground. The two women made a
dash for the little one, but lo! no
where was ho to be found; he
had d'sapjxmred completely,
le.v.'ing bo trace behind.
The unfortunate man was car
ried home by some kindly neigh
bors, but he was a long lime in
recovering his senses. The child
was a ghost, and the man had
been carrying nothing but an ap
parition from the other world.
That it appeared real enough the
two women are ready to swoar,
since they not only saw, but
touched it. It was no smoke or
vaior, but seemed to be flesh and
bone. As soon as Maung Y'un
was well enough to explain how
it all happened, a hurried visit
w as made to the cemetery in the
hope of perhaps seeing tho boy
in the zayat. Hut they were dis
appointd; neither "child or cradle
was there, and the grave was ex
actly as it had been left on the
burial day, not in the least dis
turbed. Mysterious Circumstance.

Two Burned at Stake.
Btitesboro, 0, An. 16 -.After
empowering tin milltls sna reu
in? the telrgnph (dlice so that help
con'd not be summoned from out
side, an srmed mob bnrnrd 1'anl
Reed and Will Cato, negroes con
viclcd of murder, at the itake tbii
afternoon.
They had been sentenced to hang
hy law on Boptember 9, hut the hit
ternest aronaed by their crime the
murder of Henry IIodgTi, a wblto
mm, hit wife and three children
hr nght about the triumph of Judge
LTnch.
There re.tblrteon other negrnn
under arrest for complicity In the
crime, an dit ii feared that most of
the men will be killed by the mob.
About two thousand men witnessed
the affilr. There were cans of ker
osene on every hand. For a long
time the crowd took counsel wbotn
er to born or hang Ihe men. Twice
a rope was pot aronnd their neck
and the rope was itirted for a limb
of a tree, hqt the crowd would not
have It. Some of the party were
tg'lnst the burning.
The charge of the militia ws
something tqnal to the storming of
a f rt. The militia could have
Mnd themselves hy frultlfM shoot
pg Into tho crowd, bnt there was
nooccsjlon for more slsnghtfrthtn
the feirfnl ifl.lr that bad already
happenid. The soldUrs ire In no
wsy to blame, and what was done
for the but of all concerned. To
lilvo fired into the mob would have
precipitated a fearful riot, as every
white man was armed INot a gnn
was drawn on the militia. The
crowd simply forced themselves to
thickly on Ihe hundred men who
were sca'ter d into little rrpsds that
it wai impossible to resist them.
Tbe report of additional minus
coming into the city is responsible
for the riot.
When conrt idinrncd there wai
no perceptible demonstration. Tbe
men were gathered on the ontside
s nsnal Jndge Daily wst discharg
ing the grand jury with words of
thanks when a loud volhy ot cheers
iuteriop'ed hian. lie rnshrd to tbe
window, bnt some one said: "All
i quiet." Then the charge was
renamed. The jary hsd been dis
missed and the judge was discussing
with his solici'or general when the
men crowded iuto the court house
hall below.
The jndge went immediately to
the steps and Urged them to dis-
purse, rive attempts to chargo the
crowd were made, hut without
avail. The m.n wonld not lieti n
to any leader. Subs qoeutly the
mob retired for conauliation and a
few men were selected.
It wti discovered that the guns
taken from the soldiers were not
loaded, which was a very wise pre
caution, for a wretkWs shot would
have been tbe cause for the most
terrible bloodshed imaginable The
few men who were charged by the
mob were not injured. The mob
was delighted that thesoldiree wire
not prepared to shoot into them
and put op their own guns in re
torn. "Let's fiht even," said a leader,
and the pistols were pot up. Then
ths mob charged. A few men bad
their hands cat by bayonets, but no
one was hnrt serionsly.
When tbe final ral y was made at
tbe jtil, tha men disarmed tbe mili
tary and in a .minute there was a
cheer of success.
A long line of men poshed down
tbe court house stairs and with a
chain half hitched Cato was drag
ged down the s'eps between severs,
men A rope was put around
Reed's neck aoc" was carried by
four men for b. a mile and then
allowed to wai. On the rad be
was made to give testimony and it
is siid gave out a number of names.
Tbe victims were taken two miles
from the city and a chain thrown
around a stump, piles of wood were
placed around their feet and mat
ches applied. As the blaz9 s'arted
np it u said tbe men writhed and
struggled. Rsed did not ntter a
word after the fire was applied, but
before the prch was lighted he
ye'led: "Please, please."
Uato shrieked like a maniac when
the torch , struck him. 8mi ting
fhmes licked around tbe men and
before they hardly resl Hd it they
were in tbe death agony.
A pause was made on the rosd
side aod at this time some one off -r
ed a prayer for the men. Cato did
not otter a word.
IVore the torch was applied
Gt'o begged thai he be bang, but
It ed said: "Lt htm die like me.
snd his wish was obejed. Tbe
death of the men, it is said, cme in
almost a minute, so well were they
eatnrtted with kerosene.
At 3 o'clock the men were both
charred massts. The"" ru Jitary it
still on guard and aRJs perfectly
quiet. There is aome talk of others
wbo were in tbe aQor being lynch
ed, but this will hardly occur, as
the people are evidently satiehed.
V hen Keed ai d UaU wera taken
out of jail tbey were fi'st takt-n two
miles lo the woods where they kuelt
and confessed. They described the
crime for ten minutes. According
lo Reed the following nrgroes were

A Scaboard-Coast-Llne Deal
Tho Norfolk Virgiar .rilyt !;
eii'enaiiy:
"Thu 1 urnor hss attained the dig
nity of a definite report that the
Seaboard Is abeut lo i sm into the
ha' ds ' f the same group i f Hnan
clers that control Ihe Const Lire,
which means the same group that
aio control the bqtitlicrn.
"According lo Ihe New York
difpttchua, the only hitch lo the
stle of Iho Seaboard in the Coast
Line people was over the price of
tne sti ck, and the indications are
that the option will b renewed snd
an understanding reached as a result
of w'l.ich the South will have a fall
grown raiUsv trust.
"This will he hsd news for the
people of the Stairs tranvorsed hy
the three great lines that have done
s much, utider competitive condi

sll the Smith's great rsilrosds con

pl, coui( utitivi condition will not,
of coumo, be , maintained, aud tri
bute will be levied upon Southern
development and prosperity practc

trust."
It would ho nothing short of a
ca'ainity for the three great railway
systems of the South to nss nndur
one management, though the ten
dency has t r some time been In
this direotion. The Southern and
the Coast 1,'no are now practically

shall have a railroad trust wi'b all
that this impliis.

are, that somotbing is impending in

lasses: 1. Acid. 2. Sweet. :i. As-
trigent. 4. Oily. ". Mealy.
In the Url be counts ( berries,
strawberries, raspberi ies, goose
berries, in-aches, apples, lemons,
orange., and regards tin-in as of
great hygienic value.
Chi llies he prohibits to those
fleeted with neuralgia of the
stomach.
Strawberries and raspberries
he recommends to the bilious and
gouty, and denies thou, to thoso
T-K-ted with diabetes.
Of tho sweet fruits he partic
ularly values plums, especially
for the gouty anl rheumatic.
GraiHjs ho awards the first
place, nnd thinks them tho euro
par excellence for the anaemic,
dyspeptic, consumptive, gouty
and bilious.
ltananas are recommended for
the typhoid patient,
lemons and Tomatoes a
cooling.
Lemonade is the best drink in
fevers.
The juice of half a lemon in a
teacupfull of strong black coffee,
without sugar, often cures a
sick headache.
Tho apple is one of the best of
fruits. Raked or stewed, it gen
erally suits the most delicate
person .
Green figs are an excellent
food and are laxitive.
Prunes supply the highest
nerve or brain food; dried tigs
contain heat, nerve and muscle
food; hence are good for both
cold and warm weather.
The srnall-seeded fruits, such
as blackberries, raspberries,
currants an i strawberries, are a
mong the best foods and medi

their acid is cooling and purify
