A GHOSTLY VisiTOR. It was one of those first warm days that came tous inthe south mm April and May. We had enjoyed our first dinner in our new house and congratulated ourselves on our vastly increased comfort. My brother had gone out to his pa- tienta. The servants had retired and I was alone in the house, It was near 9o'clock in the evening. I had lighted one jet of the chai delier and the drop light over the table at which I was seated, with my back to the mantel and nearly facing the door, which stood at this time partly open, and which led into the ball and thence out on to the veranda before described. On the table before me were the papers in a case which I was to try the next day and which Thad been engaged in looking over for the last half hour, Suddenly my ear caught the sound of a woman's footfall crossing the paved back yard. It arrested my attention after amoment because it was go light and different from the heavy tread of our cook, the only woman ou the premises, and to whose footfall I had been used from my infancy. Slowly the steps ad- vanced, came up the stairs and crossed the veranda into the hall, until, as I. bent over my work, 1 was, without looking. aware of the presence of some one in the room, Finishing the work which I was writing I looked up ani saw a woman standing just inside the door, which, as I'vo suid, was partly open. warnings of the death, &c., of people at a dis- tance), which are so frequently reported, are accidental coincidences or something more.” He adds that “some eight thousand people in England, France and the United States have already returned answers to the question, which runs as follows: “Have your ever when completely awake had a vivid impression of seeing or being touched by a living being or inanimate object, Or of hearing a voice, which impression, so far as youeconld discover. was not due to any ex- ternal physical cause?” To this que m I for one can answer “‘yes,” end as these strange and unaccountable things are now to secure scientific study and analysis I will briefly relate my own most remarkable experience. THE PAPERS IN A STRANGE CASE. I am a lawyer, as was also my father. who for many years before his death enjoyed the distinction of being the leader of tho bar of our state. When I was admitted there was, therefore, a place and practice all made and ready for me. But with the ardor and ambition | of youth I declined the support of the paternal aris and determined to strike out for myself. So it was that I left my native place and settled down to practice in a larger and busier city in My native state. Shortly afterward my brother returned from Europe, where he had been pur- suing his studios asa physician, and determined ou the same city as tue field of his own pro- fessional labors. We lived together as young elors in chambers. ¢ had been thus settled for a year or more, with fair prospects of success for both of us, n L received from my father a letter inclos- ing « heavy packet of papers. He wrote: “I end y the papers in a case in which we have THE APPARITION. rom retaine: It is an important case, a iki tr case, one that will command great| Her appearance was altogether a striking one. She was tall, thin and angular, her face sad and of unhealthy hue. Her hair, dark and drawn down over half the ears, was fastened inaknot behind. She wore adress of some white, soft, clinging material, caught at the waist bya black belt. From her shonldere there fell a short cape half to her waist, which was bound with black ribbon an inch wide, while it was fastened at the throat by a knot of narrow black velvet ribbons which fell in many strands drawn over her bocom. On seeing her mj first impression was that it was some one in haste to find a physician and who had therefore entered our premises by the door through the wall from the side street, which has already been described, and with that idea in my mind I said presume you ure looking for the doctor. He has gone out, but if you will leave your address I will send him when he comes in.” To this there was no reply, but the woman, with her eyes bent on me, moved slowly from the door across the room, making a slight de- tour to avoid the table at which I[ was sitting, and passed through the folding doors, whic were pushed apart about two fevt, into the front parlor. This surprised me, and my first thought was that she was cither a lunatic or a somnambulist. With this thought I stepped to the doors and threw one of them back. The woman had now turned around and stood facing me near the center of the drawing room with her right arm raised and forefinger extended as if pointing at something.

It is full of difficulties, and you will be opposed by several f the abiest Inwyera in the eiate. Make the best fight you can.” An examination of the case disclosed the following facts: MISS BETSY AND HER NIECE. There had lived m the same city in which I then resided a lady who bad died two years be- fore, leaving a large fortune and a atrange, un- natural will, She was widely and most favor- ably known in the best circles of society as a Women of unusual thought and cuiture, though of a singularly sensitive and shrinking nature. She was a devout Christian, devoted to the work of her church, and vo day of her life pasted without some act of noble but unosten- tatious ehari! She was thus loved and re- apected by ail, idolized by the poor. From her door, at which every form of human misery presented itself, none ever passed un- relieved. Until her forty-seventh year she remained single, having no other persons in her house than her niece and the necessary retinue of seryants. This niece was the child of her only sister, who died ‘ing her birth, and who had from that i‘moment been taken by her good aunt and was afterward treated as her daughter. The name of the lady up to her marriage and the one by wiich she was still best known was Miss Elizab ‘thornton; that of her niece was Florence Farren. “Miss Betty,” for so she was universally called, loved her niece with all tha ion of tenderness and completeness of devotion which ruark those ly lives bereft of all human ties but oue, and which press into a single channel ali the forces of a heart hungry for human #ympathy and kinship. So sheltered, treated and loved. Florence grew in every childish grace, in all youthful accomplishments, and at the time whei I first saw her was standing on the threshold o me but an instant to doit. My back was not turned to the woman at all and my eyes not off of her five full seconds. Yet when I stepped back to the folding doors she was nowhere to be seen.

He brought to his now bome his two grown daugiters, and their en- tertaimments were on the grandest scale. Jut after a while it began to be said that ‘ Betty” was NOT HAPPY IN HER MARRIED LIFE, anda little later her health began to fail. People said that Hillyard was not only « scheming but a brutal fellow, and that in his anger he terribly abused his sensitive. shrink ing and now ai Wife. At last “Miss Betty appeared no more in her accustomed walks, Was now never occupied, day by day on the day in question, not even my ordinary glass of claret at dinner, as our supplies of wine had not then arrived.

This will, she said, “she was at much trouble to conceal from her husband ind had at last determined to put it in the family Bible and have it under lock and key in the parlor closet of our old house.” “You will surely miss and look for the family Bible,” the letter concluded, ‘and when you find it you will find this, my true lest will and testament.” ‘This is all, except to add that this will was ad- mitted to probate; that Hillyard and his daughters cleared out of the country, and that Florence Farren received the whole fortune. ‘The ever-recurring question in my mind is, was it her ghost?

SIDINGS CONSTRUCTED WITHOUT PERMITS AND AFTER THE COURTS HAD DEFINED THE RIGHTS OF THE COMPANY—UNCLE SAM AMONG THE “OBSTRUCTIONISTS” —FALSE REPRESENTATIONS. The argument of the Pennsylvania railroad in regard to the illegal side tracks, which it has caused to be inserted in committee reports and uttered on the floor of Congress, is to this effect: ‘(Nearly twenty years ago.” “under what was believed to be absolute right,” the Com- missioners granted to the railroad company au- thority to lay these side tracks. A compara- tively recent decision of the Supreme Court indicates that the technical right to grant this authority is in Congress, and not in the Com- missioners, and the formal validation by Con- gress is therefore sought. The statement that all these sidings were constructed under permits from the Commis- sioners is untrue. The statement that all of the permits were granted before tho Supreme Court decision in the full belief of their efi- cacy isuntrue. The statement that the rail- road is merely seeking to correct a perhaps mistaken view of the technical requirements of the law, a mistake shared with it by the Commissioners and the pubiic, is also untrue No permit whatever was granted, as the ree- ords of the District Commissioners will show, for tho sidings into square 267, square 386, Mare south of 463 and square south of 267 and in the ease of a few other squares the papers are notfound. Permits for the following sid- ings were granted subsequent to the decision of the Supreme Court, April 20, 1885. at a time when the highest tribunal of the la had said that only Congress could give the authority and when no claim of acting in good faith in belief of legal right can be made: Sidings into square 739, square 695, square west of 695, square north of square 697,square 493. and square 464. The sidings into ten of the sixteen squares to be legalized were either constructed without permits or under permits issued after the Supreme Court had declared that only Con- gress had powor to grant the authority. AN ABSURD CLAIM. The railroad’s claim that it thought the Com- missioners had the right and that it, the Com- missioners and the people were all deceived to- gether, is ridiculous, The railroad took the position that it could construct side-tracks at its pleasure under its charter, without regard to people, Commissioners or Congress. The opponents of the railroad in the ¢ase which the Supreme Court decided against the road were the Commissioners of the District. The court in its decision commented severely upon this extraordinary claim of the road, and con- eluded its opinion by saying: “We are of the opinion that when thia com- pany wishes to depart in any direction from the line of its present track, as prescribed for it by acts of Congress, it must obtain permis- sion to dosofrom that body. And that Con- gress, and not the court nor the company. is the judge of the expediency or the necessity of such change, and of the manner in which the public good’ requires it to be made and the safeguards which should accompany it.” (Ed- monds et al., Commissioners, vs, Baltimore and Potomac’ Railroad Company, April 20, 1885.) From that day to this the railroad has known that all its sidings and its incidental occupation of public property by them were | illegal, but it failed to call the attention of Congress to its affairs lest some of tho improve- ments which a vigilant local legivlature would long ago have compelled should be oxacted from it. So it made no move until indicted, and it now pleads for tho legislation which it should long ago have sought, and fights vigor- ously against the exaction from it of any im- provements as compensation. SOME OF THE “KICKERS.” It is claimed by the railroad that these in- dictments were procured by “kickers,” “ob- structionists,” &c., &c. It is worthy of note | that prominent among the kickers was Uncle Sam in the shape of his commissioner of public grounds, who called attention repeatedly to the fact that these illegal tracks traversed and occupied reservations or open spaces, the prop- erty of the United States, which were improved as parks in other parts of the city. And this kickerin his report of 1887 called loudly for legal proceedings against the road. He said: “T have reported fully from time to time the facts of the occupancy of the reservations by the railroad company, and was informed, under date of February 19, 1887, by tho United States district attorney for the District of Columbia, that the Attorney General of the United States had referred the papers in the case to him and instructed him to institute such pro- ceedings as the facts of the caso warrant and as may be necessary for the enforcement of the law against the company and the maintenauce of the rights and interests of the United States in the prem- ises.” In 1889 the Attorney General formally directed the district attorney to take legal measures to cause the removal of the several tracks referred to, and the indictments of which the road complains followed, The Su- preme Court of the United States, the com- missioner of public buildings and grounds of the United States and the Attorney General of the United States were prominent among the “kickers” who have combined to abuso and persecute the Pennsylvania railroad.

(There t appears from this showing that the sidings into three squares, 737, 641 and 536, supplying business firms, are not subject to objection either as occupying reservations, or as cou- structed without permits or under permits granted by the Commissioners atter the Su- preme Court had dgciared that permission must be secured from Congress. It appears that every siding constructed for the purposes of the railroad was either constructed without ® permit, or under a permit in violation of the direction of the Supreme Court to obtain con- sent from Congress, or so constructed as to cross and occupy a reservation. The most in- toresting bit of information derived from the showing is the knowledge that not one of the dings west of 43¢ street, along the space from which it is proposed to move the surface tracks, has any claim to have been constructed in a belief of its lawfulness and without damage to the public reservations or open spaces, ‘The squares in the above list, numbered less than 500, being 498 to 8. 267, both inclusive, lie west of 434 street. Four of the squares in this space are used by the railroad, three of them without permits, one with a permit after the decision; and one set of tracks, without permit, cross reservation 178. Of the other squares one is occupied without permit, and the other under rmits issued long after the Supreme Court ye decided that the Commissioners had no power to grant them. No equities interfere to prevent e removal, elevation or sinking of the tracks west of $3¢ street, The facts coficerning the issuance of permits and the dates thereof, which have been stated, aro taken from a memorandum compiled from the District records for the intormation of the Commissioners in connection with the side- track indictments. The facts concerning the occupation of reservations are taken from the letter of District Attorney Hoge to the District Commissioners, dated June 27, 1889, and from the reports of the commissioner of public buildings and grounds for 1887. a A Brakeman Shot by Tramps.
