Ghostly Forms Scare Workers and Give Mysterious Signals. Weird stories of ghostlike figures seen at the entrance of the mino shafts and tales of groans and moan ing sounds being heard from the bot tom of the shafts are related by min ing men who have just returned frora the property of the Dig Kannwha Min ing Company at Crcede. These tales, which rival these of "Babbette,*' of whom Frank Daniels sang, arc said to have become so impressed upon many^ Df^the^naen employed in thc BJ^ ??gg?$any'a Mines tl&for n J utwonc and sought places In other Ines, where the unnatural sights and unds are unknown. The first man to relate a ghostlike le of his experiences while working the mine was Niel McQueg, an e,ngl ;er. It was about five months ago at, while standing at the end of the ira, he saw a man net more than 'enty feet away. Thinking it was ie of the miners employed at the ace, he spoke to him. He received ' reply, and again he addressed him. ;ain he received no reply, and this ne McQueg determined to find out io the man was. He approached to ?ere the figure had been, and as neared the spot the man dlsappcar . No trace cf the man could bc und. McQueg swears that he saw a sin, but the moment that he ap oachod to whore thc figure had been vanlshc1 as if by magic. Not even G slight- i trace of a man could be und/ano aone of the men working ound the mine at the time saw any ing of a stranger, nor were any of cm near tho place where McQueg d seen tho figure at about the time at the engineer saw the vision." Shortly after this three distinct jnals to hoist the men given from e station were heard In tho bottom the shaft whore Henry S. Jones and me others wore working. At the ne the signals were given po one is nearer the piar-e than fifteen feet, d the search made to discover the rson who gave the signals has been availing. Three days after this strange occur: nee, on June 26, 1902, Henry Jones is killed by falling out of the bottom the skip a distance of several hun ed feet down the same shaft from lich the mysterious signals to hoist B men had been given. These three occurrences made a eat impression upon many of tho 3n, and particularly the more super tious of them.-Denver Times. The Contortions of a Transfer.

THERE be lived amid tho teem ing humanity of the great and populous city, with the noise and bustle, of traffic and bum of human voices, always buzzing through his solitude, yet .always alone and lonely, a hermit of thc flats. The men of bis acquaintance spoke to him or nodded cheerily across the res taurant tables, but he was conscious of divergent "interests, so he never encouraged their friendly advances, but went lils own 'way In moody silence. Of women bc never thought since thc death of his hopes seven years before, when thc girl of his choice bad rejected him for a luckier 'man. Gradually his solitude burdened bini, and (he hardening process crept Into bis stories, which took a pessimistic turn. Tho editors complained because bis otherwise strong, virile work, -was too sombre; others said it lacked natur alness and humanity, but whatever tho fault was, Haswell began to realize that something was seriously amiss. "Go out among the people and got freshened up," said his friend Boynton, who bad always liked Haswell's style of work, "and let. yourself-Ilve. Thon write what you have dea-rried from them." . . But Haswell declined to take his ad vice, saying that the vulgar horde re pelled him, and lip preferred to write in bis own way cr not at all, so.bis stories grew less and less Successful, and Has well's temper soured proportionately. It was a bitter midwinter, night. The Icy wind whistled shrilly {brough tho alloys and filtered in between the chinks of Haswell's windows, rattling the casements unpleasantly. Haswell was out of temper with his work and tho exacting editors, who bad returned a batch of his stories without, so much ns a rejection slip. He roso,'plugged the casements, and drew his machine closer to thc glowing hearth, and be gan to revise the rejected copy, when a timid knock at bis door interrupted his thoughts. .

Hhuel tucked his old violin under his chin and tightened the slack strings, then he dried his. bow .carefully and began to play, very softly and deli cately, a weird little melody unlike anything Haswell had ever heard, more sad, more beautiful, and infinitely sweeter. There was a lack of tech nique -and definiteness in his touch 'which would bar a successful hearing with the coldly critical public, but to Haswell, whose soul was stirred to Us jninost depths by the spirit of pure melody, lt seemed inexpressibly lovely.
