Allon, Chester. ' Julius Poppe, Andorson O. H. 8. P.' Kinard, Newberry C. H. James Grant, Union. A gentleman living near Ports? mouth, Ohio, lins identified a ghost His family had often been annoyed by ghostly visitations during his absence. He ooncludod to "possum" absence, but watch at home for the spook. Tho Tribune says: "About midmight his ghostship appeared and commenced his 'spiritual mani? festations.' The watcher, with re? volver ih' hand, slyly slipped to the door, opened it suddenly, and laid violent hands upon his visitant. Bringing him into the house, a light was struck, the 'winding sheet' torn off, and there stood revealed to his astonished gaze the form of one of his neighbors, who had long been anxious to purchase the 'haunted house,' and had taken this course to i* ?preciate its value. He went down on his knees and begged his captor not to expose him; and ho, af tor a judicious application of cow-hide, turned tho rascal out. The house has not been 'haunted' since." Ou Su/iday, while three sons of Henry Foge, of Delaware, Ind?, aged ten, twelve and sixteen years, were out in a field together, a difficulty arose between them, when the oldest mashed the bends of the younger brothers with an axe, killing one outright, aud leaving tho other iienr ly dead. At the approach of the father, tho oldest boy ran to the barn and hung himself. Nomination for the Mayoralty. WILLIAM M.
