A GHOST STORY.
The ftpeetral Herseman That Visit
( Wyeollar Hall.
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

RATES FOR MERCHANTS.
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.' "

Accused Of Murders, And Being
White Slave Agent And
Other Charges.
CHICAGO, July 28.-The Chica

in custody one of the leaders of the
"Clack Hand" society, who is also ac

bombs, a murderer and a white slave
agent. The suspect is Joseph Ruflino
announcement of whose capture at
Milwaukee was made yesterday. Ruf
fino's wife, Saudino also was arrested.
Rufilno who is a native of Italy is
said to be wanted by the police of
many cities in this country and Italy.
Information leading to the arrests

had been searching for Ruflino and
his wife since July IS.
At that time Francisco Ruflino a
brother of Joseph took Enrichetti

wealthy Italian at Sangiusseppe, be-
cam he refused to submit to black
mail.
The woman was brought to Chica
go and placed in a resort where she
remained until July 10 when she went
to Rochester with Francisco Ruflino.
Soon afterward Joseph Ruflino, it is
charged, wrote to his brother to "do
away" with the woman, "because she
knew too much."
I rancisco cut her throat, but be
fore he could finish the crime she
fled to a police station'! fe left Ro
chester and has not been captured.
The Vaccarina woman revealed
many 'Hlack Hand" secrets and the
murder alleged to have been com
mitted by the brothers in Italy.
When the detectives searched two
trunks which Joseph Ruftiino left they
found two revolvers, several stillctocs
three pairs of brass knuckles, pieces
of gas pipe, about twenty bottles fil
led wjth various ingredients used in
making bombs, and dies and stamps
used by the "Black Hand" iri signing
threatening letters.

Help for Those Who Have Stomach

continued to use them and they have
done her more good than all of the
medicine I bought before. SAMUEL

Saved Him $100.00.
"In 1902 I had a very severe attack
of diarrhoea," says R. N. Farrar of

I was unable to do anything. On

and took Chamberlain's Cholic, Chol
era and Diarrhoea Remedy which
gave me prompt relief. I consider
it one of the best medicines of its
kind in the world, and had I used it

me a hundred dollar doctor's bill."
