From the Ev nsville Journal, since the account of the Banshee warpiug that attended the death=n an Evausville family was published in the Journal, a highty intelligent gitizen hus furnished s with the facts regarding apparitions that ‘were twice se2n in a dwelling in the suburbs of this city. We ure not at liberty to give true names or to lo- eate the house, but the story is vouched for by our informant, who 18 well acquaint.d with il the par ties concerned About eighteen years ago there lived with her relatives, an uncle and aunt, in thiscity, a Miss Harris, who was young and amiable, and was engaged to be married. She bad a very intimate friend some years older than herself, Mrs Cook, and the two had often amused and instructed themselves with inquiry {into supernatural subjects, so-called, snd, among others, discussed and 1nvestigated the doetrine of Spiritu- alism, which was then fluding a lodgment 1n the West. One day it 'was proposed, half in jest and half 1n earnest, 1hat the one of the two triends who died first, was to ap- r to the survivor, in order to set at resu all doubts upon the subject. The proposition was accepied, and by discussion they adopted it seriously, and agreed that theore| dead should, 1f possible, make tie | demonstration. In less than a year Mrs. Cook was dead, au | in asho t time Miss Harris broke her engayge- ment, when the wedding day was pear. She was unhappy, and on the evening which had been set for the wedding she retired early and yestless. It was warm, and about midnight fiuding she could not go to sleep, she raised the musquito bar and arcee to walk to the window. As she did so she confronted a solemn vailed figure standing at the side of the bed and gazing upon her with rigid, yet Questioning, countenance. One quick, earnest look and the girl re- sognized the features of the dead friend, Mrs. Cook. Bhe was terribly frightened, aund uttering loud shrieks ran past and down stairs into the room of her u.cle aund auut, and there, trembling with fright cower- ed behind thewr bed. Bhe was so unnerved thzt she was utterly una- ble to speak, and they were trying in vain to ascertain the cause of her fright, when aunother scream was heard, and a servant girl who had a room opposite Miss Harris, bounded down stairs and into the room also frightened. Upon inquiry the girl said that she had heard Miss Harris scream, and thougtt it proceeded from her auni She arose to go to the old lady’s room, aud as she en- tered the hall she saw a white fig- ure kneeling at Miss Harris’ door, with her hand shading her eyes, as if 1n sorrow. She looked again and recognized the dead woman, Mrs. Oool, and shrieking ran down stairs. A closesearch of the house miled to reveal any intruder or any sigos of one. The doors were all locked and the ground windows elosed. Bkeptics and philosophers may at once insist that the mind of Miss Harris was unduly excited by reflections upon the night of what 'was to have been her marriage. But she said that she had not thought of Mrs, Cook at all. Admitting her mervous excitement how will we ex- plain away the fact that the servant girl also saw the spectre. Mise Harris afterwards married a most wortl.y minister of the Gospel, and is now living in the Far West. After detailing these facts and giving the skeptic a chanee to ex- in them away, we will now re- te the sequel of thisstory. About two months ago, two young ladies arrived in this cily from New Albany, Ind., to visit the aunt of the former Miss Harris. They re- mained here for six weeks. Two ecks before they left they were th sleeping in the same bed in the room formerly occupied by Miss Harris. One right, just after midnight, both awoke suddenly, with a shock each without knowing the other wasawake. There, standing by the eide of the bed, was a white-roLed figure, dim and indistinet, but evi dently that of a woman. Each girl, in great fright, softly attemp ed to awake the other, and at the same moment discovered both were awake. As they looked, the figure, dim and shadowy, glided slowly backward, and dis- sppeared intd the hall, through the door. They both arose in- stantlf, fearing il was some thief who had gained aumission to the house. The gas was lit, the host and hostess alarmed, and a thorough search of the house made. It was in vain. Every dcor wasclosed and locked, every window and shutter 'was fastened. And thus it stands. The last vis- itors had never heard the story of Miss Harris and the spectre. They bad n« thing to ex. ite t! eir minds to the same frenzy —uotbing to awake them at exactly the same moment. If anybody can explain this away by natural causes, we should like to have 1t done, for of course il must te in some manner capable of explanation. —— A LIGHTNING ANECDOTE. How a Shrewd Operator Heiped a Eailroad Tratn, From the Chicago Times, Geueral Anson Btager, vice pres- ident and western manager, used to be a York Btate priuter boy, and about the time the telegraph got | into running order, he turned his | attention to telegrapby, and soon became an expert at the business. About twenty years ago he was still ar operator, and the possibilities of informed that the jocomotive had gone back on them, and they would be compelled to wait at least four hours for reliet. «How are we to be relieved?”’ in- quired Mr. Stager. “The conductor is hoofimg it to the next station, nine milesaway,” was the answer. “Why dida’t you csll me?” in- quired our opera:or. “Call you? What could you've done?” “] would have telegraphed.” “Are you an operator?’ “Yes, sir.” “Have yon an instrument?”’ “Nno “Then what good would it have done to have called you; you can’t telegraph without an instrument?” “Yes, I can,” said the ambitious anson; ‘“‘and if the officers of the rosd are willing, I’ll make the at- tempt.” 1t should be remarked here that the Directors’ car, well filled with the dignitaries of the road, was attached to the tramn. These were exceediagly anxious to reach Pitisburg to attend an important meeting, and the delay was ex- ceedinely annoying to them. Al- though incredulous to the last de- gree, they gave the word to ‘“‘go ahead,” and all of them ‘‘stood round” in the bitter cold to witness the experiment. Detaching several car lengths of the conductor’s bell rope, our opera- tor threw it over the telegraph wire, and broke 1t as near as possible pe- tween two poles. Having succeed- ed in this enterprise, he was not a little chagrined to find that the wire was not charged. Nothing daunt- ed, the sanguimne Anson tackled another wire, and the only other o_e there was. This proyed to be well charged, and prepared to act responsive to his desires. He now prepared to “make both ends meet” in more than a meta- phorical sense. Becuring all the slack he could, he brougit the two ends together, and by expert touch- ers succeeded in calling the nearest office. He then sent a brief mes- sage calling a fresh locomotive to their aid. The operator felt consid- erable confidence that is message had peen properly transmitied and received, but be wanted to be fully satisficd, and how to receive a mes- sage 1n return was the problem. The sense of hearing on which the operator had been accustomed to rely, failing him for want of an in- strument, it was necessary to call | some other sense of faculty into requisition, and hence he decided on that of feeling, or touch, and concluding that the tongue was the most sensitive to electricity o® all parts of the human body, he ac- cordingly applied the wire thereto. But this was not enough. Ground connection had to be established. However, even this want was over- come. The railroad track was made to do duty, and did 1ts work re- markably, though it was cold come fort for our operator to held on to the rail 1n the nipping frost with the bare hand. But he made his circuit, and as he held the ead of the wire to his tongue he soon telt theshocks and was thus enabled through tac- tual impreesmn, to read what the operator nine miles away was put- ting on the wire. Meanwhile the conductor was trudging his lonely way along, but before he had gone half of the distance to the station he was met by the locomotive hurrying to the rescue. He was utterly con:ounded and not a little terrified to see the monster booming aloag, and made frautic efforts to bring it to a halt by placing himself directly on its path on the track and swinging his arms for dear life. He succeeded in at- tracting the engineer’s attention, and as soon as he came within speaking distance he wanted to know ‘‘what in the b—I be was doing on the {rack on his time.’ “Been called,”” was {he answer, “Who calied you?’ (‘Been tele- graphed for by a broken-down train some five miles along here. The Superintendent himself sent the order.” The conductor now found himself in a regular fog, but got on the locomotive, and when he reach, ed the train lost no time in seekxng light. —_— NAPOLEON’S MEMORY. An Example of Accurate Recollee- tion—How He Coufuted a Pree Inte. The Emperor Napoleon was at Erfurt. A legion of kings and princes had come to humble their crowns beiore his regent royaity. At one of the soiries which he gave at this brilliant court, the conversa- tion turned on an ancient pontifical bull, about the date of which there was some doubt. An Austrian pre- late indicated a pericd which the emperor contested. “J am better informed than your majesty on such subjects,” said the prelate, “and { think I am certain of what I state ”” “And for my part,” replied the emperor, “I do not say I believe; I say, I am certain you are deceived. Besides, the truth msy be easily a:- eerumed ; 4 say, I am certain you are deoflv»" Besides, the truth may be ea. ily ascertained ; let such a work be brought, and 1if I am wroug I will hasten to aeknowledge it.” ‘The book was brought. The em- peror was right. The whole assem- bly were astonished at such an ex- whose head was constantly occa- pied by a crowd of other subjects. ““When 1 was a lieutenant,” said the emperor. These simple word« “when I was a lieutenant,” pro duced a singular effect on all pres- ent; all the represen'atiues of the | old monarchies looked at each o*her | smilirg. “When I bad the honor to be a lieutenant of artillery,” con. the telezravh were yet, in a large measure, in embryo. .
