SENOR DON JOSE SANCHEZ GUERRA GHOST MAKES NIGHT HIDEQUS FOR STAUNTON, VIRGINIA, RESIDENTS (Continued from First Page.) going there, he says, the farm hands will find the animals in a terror of fear. Dogs come up on the porch at night with their tails between their legs, whimpering in fear of some ghost- ly sight, when farm hands can find no trace of a human visitor anywhere near. The ghost has been seen at night several times, it is said. One Saturday night, when the farm superintendent was payving off, he was walking from the toolhouse to the mansion, when a man walked up alongside him. Turning to speak to him, he became aware of a white shape beside him, which sud- denly disappeared. The superintend- ent fainted away. See Ghost; Falnts Away. One night a cry came from a barn- yard a half mile away from the house. Running to the spot farm hands found a farmer lying on the ground unconscious. On regaining his senses he said he had rounded the corner of the barn and was sud- denly confronted with the spirit of 2 man, transparent and evanescent. He dropped in a dead faint. One night a particularly brave farm hand determined to lay for the ghost. He learned that at varlous times the ghost had been seen in the barnyard between the horses when they came to drink. Hiding himself behind a manure pile, he waited for the horses to come to water. When they came they were accompanied by a man. The farmer crept out, a single tree in his hand and suddenly the ghost disappeared. Search of the premises failed to reveal any human being. Pistol Fired in Cellar. Another night, when all the family had gone into Staunton, Mr. Brew's son and an employe went into the cellar to obtain some sauerkraut. Not another soul! was in the house and the men had just lighted a candle in the cellar when suddenly a pistol went off over their heads, accom- panied by a slamming of doors and the whistling sound of wind. Mr. Collins says the ghost is an accepted concomitant of the mansion house, and that the owners do not pay any attention to it, merely warn- ing the farm hands not to go abroad after dark. .The month in which the largest number of suicides occurs is July.

The Art Center exhibition, which will be continued until April 22, was the opening of a campaign to encourage better taste and dress for young girls. Costumes shown iwere selected from the des! as the ‘most appropriate for misses from ten to eighteen. The designers condemned the “flapper” styles, 8o much in vogue for girls of sixteen to eighteen. “Better taste and good sense” was interpreted in the designs to mean ' skirts below the knees, high necks and sleeves of at least elbow length.
