A Ghost in a Jail.
Ohip Smith, Who was Hanged, Re
turns With a Hangman's Noose.
NEW HAVEN, NOV. 11.
A ghost has appeared in the County
Jail in this city. Two years ago 'Chip'
Smith was hanged in the jail. Last
week moans and sepulchral sounds
were claimed to have been heard by
some of the prisoners, but nothing was
thought about it by the authorities.
Last night one of the gentlemen who
saves lodging by staying in one of the
cells was startled from his sleep by
hearing a series of moans. He got oil
his cot, and looked out the window,
thought the noise was caused by the
tree boughs rubbing together and went
to bed again. Again the noise began
and a something oozed in between the
bars and stood by his cot.
The ghost held a long hangman's
rope in one hand and waved the other.
After it had come m it stood on the
window sill and made a speech to the
terrified prisoner :
'I am chip Smith,' it said. T have
come back to my old cell first of all. 1
am returned to take vengeance on
those who were mv friends but deserted
me.'
According to the prisoner the ghost
made quite a speech. The prisoner
faiuted and told his story in the morn
ing. Other prisoners claim to have
had similar experience. There is a
panicky feeling in the jail, even among
the employes, and the prisoners are
greatly wrought up oyer their spook.

The Washington Monument Nearly
Completed.
WASHINGTON, November 12.—The
Washington Monument to-day reached
a greater height than that of any other
structure in the world, being five hun
dred and twenty feet tea iuciies aboys
the floor of the monument. The next
highest structure is the spire of the
Cologne Cathedral, which towers five
hundred and fifteen feet aboye the floor
of the building. It has been estimated

A Story of Landlord and Tenants.
George Worley tells some extrava
gant gopher tales about Florida. He
says on one occasion a certain gentle
man went to Florida with the idea of
getting rich from an orange grove and
was exceedingly anxious to buy land.
A tract was offered him at a price that
he thought would be very cheap for any
kind of land in any country, and he
bought it and paid for it before he eyer
saw it. After getting his deed he con
cluded hi would ride out and look at it.
Hi found it so full of gopher holes that
it was impossible for him to ride over
it,land he hitched his horse and under
took to walk over it. lie did not go
far, however, until lie became so dis
gusted that he pulled out his deed and,
sticking it in a gopher's hole, said:
'Here, d m you, you have got posses
sion and I will give you the title also."
He then quit Florida in disgust.
The Cholera in Paris.
No Abatement of the Epidemic—
The Daily Record of Mortality. ,
PARlS, November 12.
It is not clearly known how the
cholera originated in the Breteuil A
sylum for Old People. It is supposed,
however, that it was brought in by
some inmate returning from a Holiday.
So far 44 deaths haye occurred in the
asylum. The mortality is the greater
among the men than the women. There
are altogether 250 inmates in the
asylum. The district round about is
healthy. The nuns fearlessly attend
the patients in the asylum, where the
chapel has b en converted into a chol
era ward. Steps are being taken to re
move the troops of the garrison to
racks outside the city. M.Jules Valles
has an article in the Crida Piuph
which urges the people who dwell in the
slums of Paris to migrate to the weal
thier pkrtß of the city. He tells them
to occupy the fashionable houses that
are deserted and to help themselves to
wholesome food.
MlDNlGHT.—Duringthe past twenty
four hours there have been 47 deaths in
this city by cholera, including the fatal
cases in hospitals. At Melun in the
last forty-eight, hours there have been
7 cases and 2 deaths. Two deaths from
cholera occurred in Toulon to-day. Sev
eral fresh cases have been reported. An
actor was seized with vomiting last
night as he went upon the stage and
died shortly afterward of apoplexy.
The city is dirtier than ever.

An absent-minded teacher amused
hi r class at the re-opening of a school
the other day. Having carefully re

The other evening quite a chill w as
in the air, and George ventured out
on Sixth Avenue with bis girl. 'The

icecream; but that thin muslin dreso,
and—'l am not at all cold !' the
girl interrupted. 'To be sure I might
have thrown something over my
shoulders; but, George, dear, think
how warmly I am wrapped up in

way, and a few moments later a
smartly-dressed waiter was deferent
