When I was a lad of seventeen I was office-boy for Pinkerton's Philadelphia agency and was just wild, of course, to be sent out on a case. Every time the captain jot a Dew job I would blide up to him and say: "Cap'n. you'd better let me go out on that,1' and he would answer with a quizzical grin, "not this time, Harry. Wait till the next case." Along in December of that year the door opened and a raw old countiytnao entered. He proved to be Joe Bay lis, a Mont gomery county justice of the peace, and he wanted the captain t send a man down with him to attend to a ghost who was cutting didoes at Fwrt Washington. The captain told him he would send a man as sooa as he had ne at his disposal. The id fellow left auu I jumped to my feet. "Capta'n," I said, "send me on that case." The captain leaned back in his chair and Uoed at me hard. "See here, Harry," lie said, "suppose I were to send you, what would you do?" I outlined an elaborate plan of campaign against the ghost. He let me hi-ibli and then said : "You'd make a canlounded ass of yourself, now, wouldn'. you? You'd make us tne laugiiing stock of the town. Now hteu: In the first place, always bear this iu mind -there is no such thing as a ghost. If 1 send you to Fort Washington, go there with that idea in your hcuU. There is no such a thing as a ghost. If you see the ghost, and get neai euough, jump for it. Don't be at i aid, it won't hurt you, just jump for it. It will turn out to be a human being, no doubt of that. Now, I'll let you go and try vcur hand. Don't make a tool of your self. It you see the ghost and think you can't haudlc it, lie low and follow it, and see who it is." The captain gave me uouey and away I weDt. 1 felt pretty brave, tor it was bright daylighr then, but there were times when I wished myself well out of the thin. I got to Fit Warhii g ibeut 3 o'clock, and inquired the way to the haunted house from the station agent. I found it on a hill about halt a mile from the town, and looked it over with interest and ip-prehc-usion. It was an old white Irame mansion standing in park like grounds, with plenty of out houses about it. borne country men whom I met told me tbat the ghost as in the habit of standing on top o' the brod stone wall that skirted the roadway. There was au outnouse so situated that any cue concealed in it could overlook tiie whole stretch of wall trom end i end, aud I made up my ni'nd tlut this was the bet place for me to get into before the ghosi ma-e its appearance. Then 1 went back to the hotel, took my supper and chatted with tiie waiters aud a lew loungers about the ghost. I learned that it first appeired about three weeks belore my arrival. A man named McTanish, an ignoraul tar in-hand, was the first person to encounter it. He was coming to town one night fioui the grist mill with a suck of meal on ins back and paused for a minute in front of the old bouse to set the Dag down ou a stump ad rest his shoulder. He beard a noise behin him, and, turning round, saw stand ing on the wall a figure he after ward said was th rteen feet higa at lest. He did not stop to observe the figure very carefully, though, but ran as hard as he Kiew how down the road. Next night a party of men saw the ghost and they also ran. Thev said the jlnt made after them breathing fire and brimstone and acting in a peculiar ly weird and unholy manner. After that the house was avoided at night, but several strong parties of men, muludiug the selectmen of the town, saw the ghost from a respectful distance. It approached them in each case, and in each case they took to their heels. About dusk I stole down to the de serted house, aud it was dark when I got there. I slid along the wall to the outhouse, crept cautiously in, aud shut the door again. Hardly had I shut the door when I knew that there was some other in that outhouse. I felt sure there was somebody close by my elbow. I was trembling like a leaf, but I managed to pull a match from my pocket aud strike it. 1 held it up. It showed me a bij white muflled tigure not f.vo teet away. Then the match went out. There m, some people who laugti at the idea of a man's hair siaudinz o i end. They would say it was a physical impossibility, but I know bitter. I could feel my hair rise up a id iny flesh begii to creep. But 1 had no time to think. I jumped. 1 had to jump. 1 shut my eyes and grabbed for the ghost. I. was so frightened 1 seemed to lose conscious ness fur a moment, but grabbed some thing aud held on. When the first shock passed, I felt the ghost tugging and pulliug to get away from me. It was as badly frightened as I was, and its hands were soft and warm. "Dou't hurt me,' it said in a terri fied voice. ... . , ,1 had no .voice to reply with.' I was choking, but I palled my captive out on the lawn and lookea at it by moonlight. The sheet that had been inu filed about the figure fell to the ground a pretty girl of fifteen was disclosed. . I was in a cold perspira tion aud shaking as if recovering from a shock of electricity, but when 1 saw that I had caught real genu ine flesh and blood girl and no ghost 1 began to feel Letter aud presently began to talk. "Who are you?" I asked. "Jenny Bay lis." 'What? The daughter of Joe Bay lis?" "Yes, sir." "What are you doing tfiia for?" The girl began to cry. She said she had not meant any harm. She and her sister had played ghost just to have some fun. Her sister was usually with her, but did not come this night as she was too busy. She had this night heard from her father that a detective was coming to catch the ghost, but thought he was not due for a day or two and resolved to make one last appearance and then give up the performance till things calmed down. "Who are you?" she asked. "I'm the detective," I said. She looked me over in evident awe and consternation, tinged with some su. -prise ou account of my age. "What are you going to do with me?' "I shall have to expose you." The girl criei again aud begged to be released aud allowed to go home, but that did not suit me at ail. I said she was my prisoner, and as such I must deliver her up to the author ities, and after a good deal of waiting h suggested that I had better give her up to her own father. I agreed to that, and picking up her sheet, I held her arm and took her with me to her father's house, about a mile distant. "Dou't you know that you might have been killed by some of those people you frightened?" I asked. "No, si f, I never thought of that. Everybody who saw me ran away." When we got to the farm-house, where Jennie lived it was 9:30 o'clock Everybody was in bed and the lights were all out. but I boldly kuocked at the dour. A wiudow optued aud a man's voice said : "Who's there?" "The detective." "You're rather late. Why didn't you wait until tt-norrow? Better come around and see me in the morning. "I want to see you now. I have the ghost. At this the window clo&ed with a bang, aud 1 heard hurried steps on the stairs. The dcor was opened aud old Baylis stood in the doorway, with a light. He looked at me in aston ishment, and when he saw his daugh ter aud the sheet I thought he was goinj into convulsions. ' You, Jennie':" he asked at length. "Yes, father," sid Jcnuie, very humlily. O a Baylis sighed and said "Come iu." He sent for his neighbors immedi ately. I dou't know what was said at their mectinL', tor I was not ad mitted to it, but old Hay lis gave me a letter to the captain and packed nut oil on the midnight train. Next morniiiK 1 reached the office early aud found ail the men present, waiting lor l lie captain to aetail tlieiu. 1 lie men griiiiiel it me. They all knew where I had b'jen and anticipated a wonderful tale of disaster aud defeat which they were ready to laugh at. I ti.oUL'ht I sent you to roit Washington, Harry?" said the cap tain. "Yes, sir." "Made an ass of yourself,I sup pose?" " I here's a letter," While the captain read the letter the meu guyed me "This is a very nice letter, Harry," said the captain. "Boys, the young ster captured the ghost." "i-rid he?" said the men. "Yes, sir, he did. The boy is a credit to us," and then the captaiu read the letter of the selectmen aloud. I told the story, and you can be sure I did not refrain from giving iryself plenty of credit. My tale was very highly colored. When it was oi. luded Jim Langdon drawled out: Uiarry, tell the honest truth. Was you frightened when the match went out?" "No, of course not!" said I. But 1 was two years later, when 1 asked the ghost to marry me, and thought she was going to say no. However, she di.l'nc Philadelphia Times.
