Mary A. Maaon In Youth Companion. ABE AND AUSTIN. Austin anrl t were Bitting op with the oorpaa. Aba had been a (tiff since 8 o'clock, and It was then six hours later. We were cattlemen cowboys they Would call us east 11 ring In a ranch on the Feoos in Texas. Abe wu lying on a buffalo robe over against the wall, where ha died, He had been granting around for sereral days complaining of his old Wound. He Was taking a drink when I went out in the afternoon to salt some 4eer; when I oame back, he was dead. Austin and I straightened him out and threw a saddle blanket over him. We closed his eyes, but left his head out It seemed moro natural like. Austin was sitting facing the corpse. 1 had my back that way, We were play ing mfeieout poker for yearling heifers. All of a sudden there was a noise oyer by the corpse that made us both start It sounded like two knock on inenoor, We dropped our cards and wont over. Eranrihing was all right. I said it must hare boon a prairie dog or gopher we had no cats nor rats around there. Aus tin was horribly scared. He swallowed m larger drink ot whisky than usual. We went back to our game, and presently we heard the rap again this time loud er. We.up again and went over. All was quiet as a oult mining camp. Aus tin was shaking all oyer, and he says, "D If I take any stock in spirits out side of the Jag!" Then he took another drink and banged out ot the ranch. When he came In, he says, "Well have a norther tomorrow." We didn't play any more. We sat there talking about whether we better start Jose (our cook) out on the range to roundup the boys for the planting. Pres ently Austin says, "ina ado ever say anything to you about being marrledr "Ho. he didn't." Bars L "If he's mar- lied, some one ought to get word to his woman." Then we kept stui a spell. Then Austin saysi "Was Abe marrledr "I know nothing about him." says L Alter a little I says to Austin, "Was Abe maxrieaj" "I know notlung about him," h says, and then he went off of his box onto the Boor as if a broncho had kicked him. 1 lumped up to help Mm, and as 1 did so I saw Abe (the corpse) sitting up oa that kuffalo skin looking powerful mad. Els Up was ourled up like he was trying to hiss something, and Ills arm was stretched out, and one long bony an ger was pointing at Austin, who lay knocked out on toe noor. tiont want any encores to that act. was so Scared I couldn't smoke. I bent flyer and shook Austin, but be seemed U2 dead. As I went oyer for the jug to get something to help him, I saw Abe was lying just as we had fixed him, and the blanket looked as if it had not been disturbed. I took about flye fingers my self, then poured some into Austin. The first thing ha did when he came to was to look at his shooter. Then he walked oyer to the corpse and 'peared to be ex amining the blanket. Then he says: 'That's the second of those d strokes Pre had. I guess the next will fetch me." I didn't tell him what I'd seen, and I dldnt ask him what he'd seen. It didn't always pay to ask questions. Austin drank Tight along a drink between drinks and an hour later he fell oyer on the door. I threw a robe oyer him. Ldldn't feel any too good sitting there alalia after what Id seen, and I took more than I should hays myself. I don rens ember much about going to bed. The nrst thing I knew was Austin shak ing me and saying, "BUI, where the .deyU'e Abe got to!" I got up and looked around. There was the buffalo skin, but no Abe, and his Winchester was missing. We called in Jose. Ile'd seen nothing out ot the way. We both felt far from comfortable and decided to ride up to the next ranch and tell the boys there. When we caught op our ponies, there was Abe's sorrel as big as life. We dldnt come back to the ranch for week. Then we were so played out and sick nothing could have, scared us, but both of us kept wondering where Abe baa gone. Two years afterward Austin and I rode Into Cheyenne from the Crazy woman's fork, where we were then lfflng. We went into Talbot's saloon. The barroom was separated from the theater Dart br a Dlain board partition. We sat down at a table in the barroom and called for lignor. There was a long haired, heavily whiskered man who ftokad like a bullwhacker stretched out on a bench. He looked as if he were sleeping, we'd taken several drinks, and I get to thinking of old times and somehow ot Abe. "Do you ever think of Aba nowr 1 says. "Indeed I do, often," save Austin. 'Til never rest till I know what became ot him. Just as be said this the bullwhacker rose up and says: "Mr. Williams, or Austin, if you prefer it, you may rest from this date. I am Abel" Austin reached for his gun, but Abe caught his arm and said, auletlike; "Hold on mlnujt. If you want any shooting later, m sir you a shove" Then he turned to ma and saids "Years ago, back in the states. Williams here and I loved the same girL Her parent did not approve of either ot u. Bh asade me think she loysd ra, and she led Austin to believe be was the favorite. She finally con tented to a secret marriage with me, and we slipped away, saying nothing. "Somehow the reDort trot back to her bom that I had taken her off under promise of marriage and had then de serted her. Austin never recognised me up to th day of my supposed death, but Z knew him the first time he showed up atourranoh on the Peso. After you went out that afternoon I felt very sick ana really thought I was dying, tuned to Austin and said, 'Williams, I'm John Walker.' Quick as a cat he was oa ms. I couldn't get my gun, and h had me by the throat, so I oouldn speak. He choked me, as he supposed. to death. The ext thing I remember was bearing you two talking about me as If I were dead. I really felt not far from -It, "When Austin, In answer to your que- g.tion, said he knew nothing about me, it maaa m mail, ana i rose up to tell luin belied. The sight of me knocked him r Micas. I knew then I was supposed be a corpse. When you both had turned la drunk, I crawled to the jua and took enough to strengthen me. Then I supped out, mounted the nrst cow peny I found and rode away. I did not feel like nghtlng Austin in fact, he would not have touched me bad he waited to hear me and I thought my disappear I ano would worry him some." Again Austin reached for his revolver. "Walt," said Abe, "until I finish. 1 I married the girl and treated her as white . woman ever was treated, but five I months afterward she ran away with a blocmlqg drummer. I hear the music t unto trim, Gome Inside. I have some- I thing to show Austin there." Abe purchased the tickets, and we en- I tared to partially filled room which was doing duty as a theater. A rude stage I wa constructed at the end of the room. I and a few men seated on boxes before it ! were grinding out ot their cracked and Uaoordant instruments an air that re- i called "Bis Up.

Pree- aatly the large canvas wagon sheet that iHrved as drop curtain was raised, scd gaudily and scantily dressed and ouaUy painted woman marched to the ufcr of the stage and burst forth in a loesg that would not nave been tolerated I of th matte.

In Thousand, of Tear., We are asked to believe In ghosts bo- cause In every age there havo been ghost stories. But would it not be more nat ural to suppose that in every age the hu man mind has been suuject to aberra tions, and that some specific weakness or irregularity of the mental constitution or of the physical organ, the brain, on which all thinking, so far as we are aware, de pends, has probably given rise to this particular class of hallucinations? We cannot pretend as yet to know me mind thoroughly in health and disease, but this we do know, that there are thou sands and millions of persons whose lives are never Intruded on by ghosts and who know absolutely nothing of "occult" phenomena. According to a reverend gentleman's figures, only one woman in twelve and one man in ten no naa any occult experiences. Now, what we should like very much to have would be a further analysis of these figures show Ing the percentage of flighty or other wise 111 balanced minds among the "oc cult" and the "nonoccult" (if we may so apply the words) clusees respectively. Our own experience would lead us to believe that the proportion would be vastly larger In the former class than In the latter. Who has not known many examples of the tremulous, nervous, hy persensitive, wonder loving, Hysterical or semlhysterical type of constitution amonff the devotees ot ghost lore? And it such examples occur, as we believe they must, to the mind of every one, is it not at least a probable inference that "occultism" In its various phases has something to do with that kind of mind? The ghost may be very ancient, but we do not believe in him the more. The trouble about him is that he has made no progress since the earliest times. In fact, on the whole, he has fallen back. We should not be-disposed to talk of the levitation" of Elijah ourselves had not the Rev. Mr. Haweis nsed the term be fore us. But if, following tho reverend gentleman's lead, we consider the proph et's alleged translation in that light. surely It was a most successful teat in "levitation." and a little ahead of any- thins the modern world can show. And, speaking generally, the appari tions and visions and other spiritual or occult phenomena of ancient times had more "body" to them than those of our own day. If therefore the ghost has made no progress In the course of three or four thousand years, if he is just as nnlnstructive and Inconsequent a phe nomenon now as he was when we first encountered him, if not a little more so, we may perhaps be pardoned for think ing that he may be safely and fairly ig nored by people who have an average amount of business to attend to. pop ular Science Monthly, Lamar. Tonff Hair. There is a young lady now prominent In Washington society to whom as a little girl Lamar revealed one blood curdling reminiscence. He was accus tomed to visit her father's house and had often noticed her gazing curiously at his hair, which he wore very long and flat to the sides of his head. One day he said to her: "My dear, you look as it you wanted to ask me something What la it?" "If you please, Mr. Lamar," she an swered, "why do you wear your hair that way at the sides?" Lamar drew on his most serious expression, and in alow, hoarse whisper between his lifted palms he replied, "Because, my dear, 1 once hand a fight with a man and he cut off my ears'" For along time afterward thelittlegirl was struck with a chill of horror every time she looked at him, until one day in the midst of a gesture he swung his hair back far enough to assure her that his head was supplied with its normal com plement of members. But she never, to the day of his death, entirely got over the effect made upon her by the pretend ed dread secret Kate Field's Washing ton. The M.anlrjg- of Telepathy. Few people would be ant to under stand what you meant if you talked to them about "telepathy." New sciences spring up so rapidly nowadays that it is hard work to keep track of the new words coined for them. Telepathy is re lated In meaning to telegraphy, In that it is a sort of mental telegraphy, or feel ing at a distance, being derived from the Ureek, pathos, feeling and tele, at a dis tance. It is only a new and more scien tific name, however, for what we com monly speak of as mind reading, though not all mind reading is telepathy. Richard liodson, secretary of the So ciety for Psychical Research, defines te lepathy as the ability of one mind to im press or be impressed by another mind otherwise than through the recognized channels of sense, and cites some remark able Instances of mind reading and thought transference investigated by the society. These, he thinks, confirm the conclusion that thought transference is a reality. New York Commercial Adver tiser. Greek Noieh We learn that the nose of Socrates was not Greek, but such as Qreek artists usually assigned to satyrs. Occasional ly, a in a beautiful group ot a satyr playing dice with a nymph on a bronze mirror, they gave satyrs another kind of nose. The noses of the ladies in the Tanagra terra cotta are of all agreeable orders of nose, not necessarily Greek. The chances are that the Qreeks varied as much as we do in their noses, while the tradition of their art preferred the conventional straight nose. In the eame way the kind ot Romans who had their portraits done on coins and gems were just the sort of energetic, conquering people who have Roman noses every where, like William of Orange and the Duke of Wellington.

A HYPNOTIC IMPOSTER. An Enfltahman Who Conltl To Many Thing. For T.aMi.r. of II ynnotUm. The subject who came to lue had bepn a shining light in the profession, and I have reason to know that he was ex ceptionally gifted. He had performed to crowded houses under several great artiste at the Aquarium, mid elBewhere in London and the provinces. He hail figured at select seances of scientific hyp notists, llo had been privately operated on by medical men anxiously seeking after truth. And. by his own statement, he hod humbugged them all. What proof had I, then, that he was not hum bugging ne? Ample proof. Ho offered, In the first place, to do under my direc tion everything which he had done in public and rrlvate seances when under supposed hypuotlo control. I contem plated, in the first Instance, accepting this offer nnd giving a demonstration to a select circle, and it was solely owing to myself that this was not done. As ft preliminary, I naked him to ex hibit a few of his powers for my private edification. He- complied without hesita tion. He first of all passed himself into the "cataleptic" state and lay ou the floor rigid. Two members of my stuff took Mm in this condition nud laid him across tho backs of two chairs the back of his head renting on one and his heels on tho other, Ho remained bo for several minutes. On a pass being mode over him with the hand, his liody became arched upward or downward. Two fairly robust individuals next sat on his body, nnd the "cataleptic" supported them without signs of Inconvenience. He then himself thrust a needle into Ills arm and through the lobe of his ear, to prove that he was insensible to pain while In tho cataleptic state. Next he showed how one side of his face could be drawn down by toothache ("suggested" by the operator), while the other side was distended in a broad grin. Again, at the "suggestion" of the oper ator, the grin and the toothache changed sides, and so on. He offered to swallow an ounce of cayenne pepper in a glass of water, but unfortunately I had no cay enne pepper at hand. 1 asked him whether he could take aWineglaesful of Ipecacuanha, and he professed readiness to do it at once. The cayenne pepper I could partly understand. It would be a mere question of standing a certain amount of pain. But I asked him how he managed to control the effect of the ipecacuanha. "We only do It for a time, he said. " You can learn to do it with practice, like the rest of the tricks. But we always bring the stuff up after the performance." He also expressed his readiness to drink oil. Among novel tricks which he offered to perform was that of "slow lug" the pulse while under hypnotic influ ence. Of this ho claimed to be the orig inal inventor. I asked him whether all the "subjects" were equal imposters. 'All," he said. Ho know them all per sonally and would answer for them. He ridiculed the mere suggestion that there could bo anything genuine in hypnotism, whether In Tans, London or anywhere else, but here he may have -spoken be yond his knowledge. London Truth.
