The Spot Where the Robbers of the Stago Were Killed Is Haunted—-A Man Who Aided at tne Killing Tells the Story and Vouches For Its Truth. ‘“‘Talking about ghosts,’’ said Colonel Ham Splogett of Arizona, ‘don’t you know I never seed a gl until I went out to Arizony, mighty nigh onter 40 years ago. I never put much belief in spirit stories until I seed a spirit with my own eyes, and ever since that time [ never was knowed to doubt a man what mys he’s gone seed a ghost. ‘““Thar’s a gulley some ten miles out er Boneville on Skull creek, what a party of ghosts ride once a year always on the same night, "lowing for short months, and thou- sands of the best citizens of Arizony have done seed the things, and I seed them my- self, and I never wants ter see nothing like them ag’in. “It was in rough times, when every man was bound ter carry a brace of Colts on his hips and arifle across the holler of his back. Men never thought nothing of crack- ing leose at other men whenever they thought their dignity had been kinder in- jered. : ‘For several months after I got inter Boneville the inbound stage bad a mighty hard time in getting ter the town, and several times it came in without the mail bags: without the money box from the Tuoson bank ter the mine, and with the criver pulling reins upon panting horse- flesh and a coupleof dead men hanging ter the straps inside the coach. The boys in town at last got sorter riled over these raids, and finally Jedge Smith, who was kinder the leading man of Boneville, called a business meeting of the boys ter discuss the ways and meaus of ridding Boneyille and its suburbs of the hold up fellers. A plan was mapped out, and every feller in the crowd was told ter shet his mouth and go ter work. ‘The next trip of the coach about 20 of the boys, with their rifles, went out to Skull creek and ambushed at the end of a long bridge which crossed the creek. Here it was that the stage was generally held up, anda row of crosses near the creek’s bank marked whar different fellers had passed in their checks what had rid- den in the stage. Waal, right on time we heard the stage come over the brow of the hill, going like h—l. As she rolled outer the bridge there came a volley of shots, and six fellers on horseback came tearing down the bridge after the stage. Nota feller in our crowd moved a muscle. The driver of the stage laid on the lash, and the animals jest rattled over the boards with them six fellers pounding hard after. Jest before the stage reached the ambush the driver fell off of the box, dead asa doornail, and the horses swerved and went inter the creek, stage and passengers and all. The gang on horseback reined in as they reached the ambush, and then there was a rattle of rifles and a chorus of yells that made my heart sick, as right as I kKnowed it was. The smoke cleared away, and thar, right on the bridge, not mor’n 40 feet from whar I stood, lay six dead bodies of men and six dead bodies of horses. Nota spark left to tell the tale. Waal, we managed to get the stage out of the creek, but we had ter kill the horses and pull from the stage one of the passen- gers, a poor little woman who was coming ter join her husband at the town, and she was dead, jest a little round hole in her neck telling its story. We picked up the body of the driver and took it ter town with the little woman, and that night the boys dug a deep cut near the creek and dumped the killed robbers into it and cov- ered them up for good. ‘*Now comes the funny part ofthe story. It must have been a year after the wiping out of the gang that one of the boys from the town was cut hunting near Skull creek. Dusk caught him right alongside of the br'dge before he knowed it, and then as he realized whar he was he took out for home on a long gallop. Before he had time to go yery far he heard a rattle of wheels, and, looking back at the bridge, be saw the stagecoach coming across the boards at an awful rate. While he was pondering ’bout the stage, knowing it wasn’t dus until the next day, he saw six menon horseback come a-tearing along behind the stage raising Ned and shooting ter beat the devil. Waal, he stood kinder spellbound in his tracks, not knowing what ter do, although he said ter me aft- erward that he wanted ter run mighty bad, but was afeured that he might be needed. Before the stage reached him he saw the driver tumble to the bridge, dead. The horses and stage went into the creek, and the next minute a cloud seemed to hide all the light, and when he saw ag’‘in there wasn’t a blamed thing in sight save the trees and the bridge and the creek. Then he knowed what he had seen. ‘*The whole picture of the killing of the robbers and the smashing of the stage came inter his mind, and jest then he caught sight of the crossevs on the bank of the ereek and the high mound under which the robbers slept, and he suddenly seemed to get enough of the locality. He turned tail and ran inter town like a scary coyote, and he never went back. Jest as sure as that date rolls around and anybedy’s near the bridge the same thing happens jest like it did in life. I seed it twice, and if I hadn't er had some of the boys with me I'd er left before it ended. ‘It’s awful ter see the sight. You can hear the roll of the wheels, heavy like the rattle of a smothered drum beating the funeral march, and the pounding of the animals’ hoofs upon the boards seems dcad- ened, jest for the world like you hear them a long way off, and then, too, the shots come to your ear like you done heard them ina dream. You see itall, and then a cloud ’pears to hide everything, and when it clears away thar ain’t a thing in sight ‘cept yourselves.’’—New Orleans Times- Democrat. ee —— TO LET.

The value attached by the poor, and even by these who are not in the depths of poverty, to decent surroundings in family life is a very variable quantity. Decent lodging is not by any means universally regarded as one of the prime necessaries of life. Occasionally it is relegated to quite a back seat. An instance was given before the conunission of a family of seven per- sons—fathef, mother two grown up sons and three grown up daughters—all livy- ing in one room. With them this ar- rangement was a matter of choice, not necessity, for they earned between them about £7 a week, more than £350 a year, and even from a slum landlord they could no doubt have afforded to rent another room or two. Having screwed down the item of rent to an reducible minimum, they determined to have athoroughly good time, and this is how the witness describes their pro- ceedings: ‘*In the evening they would ail go out to the music halls and to the theaters. On Saturday afternoon they would take five tickets each for sume ®wnibus or conveyance that was going into the country, and on Sunday they would go to Brighton and to other places.’’ If is comforting to reflect that these Arcadian beings were a unit- ed family and always took their pleas- ure together as well as their naps. It is not stated whether they took in lodgers. —From ‘‘The Housing of the English Poor,’’ by the Right Hon. Lord Monkswell, in North American Review. Remedy For Excess In Eating. A hint to those who may thought- lessly at some time or other indulge in excess in eating. If this indiscretion is comuuiitted, especially in high seasoned things with rich sauces, a draught of cold water, acidulated with lemon juice, will take off the sense of weight at the stomach and assist the digestive process hy moderating the alimentary fermentation.—New York Ledger.
