This ghoat atory hi contributed by a correspondent of au Engl lab magazine: "Wyeollar Hall, near Colne, was long the wist of the Cunllffo of RHIlngtou. They were noted poreon In tliulr time, bat evil days come, and their ancestral estate pad out of their Hands, In the day of the commonwealth tbelr loyalty cost them dear, and ultimately tbey retired to Wyeollar with a rem nant only of their once extonslvo. prop arty. About 1810 the laat of tbo fami ly passed away, and the ball Is now a maiw of ruin. Little but tho antique fireplace remains entire, and even the room alluded to In the following legend cannot now be Identified. Tra dition say that once every year a specter horseman visits Wyeollar Hall. II Is attired In Uie costume of the early Stuart period, and the trappings of his borne are of most uncouth de scription. "On the evening of hi visit the weather U always wild and tempestu ous. There la no moon to light the lonely road, and the residents of tho district do not venture out of their cottage. Wbeu the wind bowl loud est the horseman can be beard dash ing up the rond at full speed, and. aft er crossing the narrow bridge, be sud denly stop at the door of the hall. The rider then dismount and makes his way up the broad oaken stairs Into one of the rooms of the bouse. Dread ful scream, as fresn a woman, are then beard, which noon sulfide Into groans. The bowman then makes hi appearance at the door, at once mount his stood ami gnllop off. "His body can be ijoen through by those who may chance to be present; his borne appror to be wild with rage, mul Its nostrils stream wltb fire. The tradition is that one of the Cunllffe iiurd 'TOl his wife In that room and I'm KpiH-ter horseman I the ghost of '.'. iiiurlcrer, who Is doomed to pay an rniiuu! vlult to the borne of bl victim. KIih Is sold to have predicted tho extinction of the family, which, according to the story, has been liter ally fulfilled."

One Road Offers Low Passage For Buying Season. - NEW YORK, July 28,-The Chi cago, Rock Island and Pacific rail road hast advised the Merchants As sociation of New York that during the present buying season it will make effective over its lines merchants rates to New York City. The special rate for the round trip will be a fare and one half, the same being granted under the certificate plan. The rate will be operative August 1 to 5 in clusive, with a return limit to August 30 and again on August 15 to 19 in clusive with a thirty day return limit. This action on the part of the Rock Island is important to the New York market. It practically opens up nil ilie territory of the Western Passen ger Association, that vast section of the country west of the Mississippi river, all the way to Denver north of St, Louis, from which the Merchants reduced railroad rates to this city have always been denied in the past. Other railroads in that territory, it is stated, will probably authorize simi lar rates. These Observtr Wer Wholly senal In Thalr Judgment. "The critical faculty la rare," laid an editor and critic at a Philadelphia art club. "It must be impersonal. But most of u Incline to be wholly per sonal In our criticism. The fact was brought home to me at one of the exhi bition at the Academy of Fine Art. "Panning from picture to picture, I overheard many criticism. Thus a lady In a rich gown said: "'What a superb portrait of a young girl! It should certainly win the Car negie prize. It I easy to see that the gown wa made by Paquln.' "A fat red nosed man In a fur lined overcoat halted before a picture enti tled The Luncheon.' "This atlll life,' he exclaimed. 'Is the most admirable I have ever seen. Terrapin, caovasliack, champagne, lob ster, even Porlgord ple-ab, what a genius.1 " 'In this historical painting,' I heard an antiquary say, 'the costumes are ac curate In every detail. The painter Is a second Raphael' "That horn there.' said a young polo player, Ma exactly like my Poda sokus. It's the best picture In the ex hibition.' "An athlete utterod a cry of delight before a daub called 'The Gladiator.' "'What ehoulders! What arms!' be said. T bet anything the Jury gives this painting the highest award.' "And half the throng, departing, said: " The picture In tho last room Is tho best. No, we didn't seo it couldn't get to It, in fact but It draws far and away the biggest crowd.'
