On Tuaaday afternoon of this week Clerk McElvaiu granted a marriage license to Alex aader Oilcbriatof ludiona l ;Po.. aud Margaret Wise, who has been in this town for several years, having lived with tbe families of Mr. Chaa. Bebhuua and Ciaranoe Walker, Eeq., but who ia a native of Indiana Co., Pa. Mr. Gilchriat, also lived in Butler thirty or forty years ago, and ia the uocle of John Gilcbrist formerly of Butler but now of Wheeling, and Christy Gilchrist now dee'd. He ia sixty one rears of age, ia totally blind, has a good borne in Indiana, and ia receiving a pension of about sloo a month for tbe loss o' his eyes which were burnt out by on explosion during tbe war. They were married by Rev, KM bit that evening. Shortly after this license waa granted, two deaf-ma tea—Goo E. Williams of Peoro, Kan sas, and Miss Ada Gardner of Petrolia, a sis ter of Geo. Gardner tbe policemen, and also ofthewifeof Mr Ireland, ol the firm ot Ire land A Hugbea, Petrolia—applied for a li cenae. Both are smart, intelligent, well ed ucated people, who became acquainted with each otlier at o deaf-uiute school some years ago. They bad a daughter of Mr. Ireland, who understands the sign language, with them oa interpreter, and with her aid, and their complete knowledge of reading and writing hart no trouble answering the necess ary questions, taking the oaths and aubscrib ing to the docket. They then went over to E«q. Walker's of fice, where tbey answered tbe qoee'iou* iu writing, joined hands, aud with th* aid ot' the little girl were married. Mr. Williams own* 0 farm of 2'X) acres uetr Peora and is a well to-do f.»rm«.-r, and Miss Garduer is a fine woman aud thorough housekeeper Both these strange marriage* will ia all probability be very happy ones. Another license worth mentioning was that taken out by a young French couple, a few divs ago, in which another French man, who *p?ke English, acted as interpreter. A Card of Thanks.

The following ridiculous story re garding the Pittsburg «fc Western railroad has been published, aud as it makes interesting reading for people who believe in ghosts wi- reprint it "1 don't suppose there is another railroad in the c ountry that a train haod can get a job on so eisiiy a-i be cm on the little Pittsburg & West era out IU the Pennsylvania oU re gions," said a former employe of ihit roi.J, now on the Erie. ' There is a! ways a chance there for a rail roader, whether he's a brak**man, fireman, conductor or engineer, and there isn't a nicer road anywhere to woik on, and the wages are big/er than the biggest. But rn-ja ure quit ting it all the time, and among !he m« n who are hired in their places you never see one who ever wo~ked on the. road before, and the firnt thing you ko-'W ibey are calling f r their time and tbrowiug up their job?. The boys often run across others out of a jjb and say to them: 'Why don't you g> oi the Pittsburg & Western? want m-n bid Nino times out of 10 t*iey witi rep ; y: 'No Pitts burg & Western for u?,p,«ase, We've been there.' "What's the matter with the Pittrburg & Western?" the re porter. "Haunted," replied the railroader. "That's right, Laugh if you want to. I'm thinking you wouldn't laugh mucu, though, if you should ever tun au engine down Cranberry S vamp grade, between lt*mfrew aid Reibold stations, with old Bill K'a.g'* g l >s*, in theeib with you aud trying to stop tbe train to keep it f rom runcing down two otber ghosts Btandin-r on the track just ahead of your engine, and almost sto, ping it. to >, although the grade is steep and slippery, be tween Renfrew and lleibolds Take the map of Pennsylvania, look at Butler county, you'll find those two places there plain enouzh, and 1 know that if you ever took a run Uown Cranberry Swamp grade, on the little Pittsburg <fc Western, be tween Renfrew and Reibolds, with old Bill King's guost in tbe cab with yoa, you wouldn't laugh much. "The way tbe road got haunted in that spot was this: Not far from tbe railroad at tbe loot of tbe Cranberry Swamp grade about 10 years ago lived an old couple named Wilbelm. They had no family besides them selves, and they depended on a CJU ple of acres of garden aud their cow and poultry yard for their living. One of tbe first Jersey cows in that part of tbe country belonged to Mrs, Wilbelm, it barium been made a pres ent to her by a noted stock raiser in Crawford county. Mrs. Wilbelm thought the world of the cow, aDd when it strayed from its enclosure, got on the lit le P & W track and was run over and killed by tbo cart tbe old lady weot almost wild. "She sued the company for the val ue of ber co.v, but the suit went agaiust ber. She brooded so over ber trouble that she became insane on tbe subject of railroads ami ber c>w, aud tbe souud of a traiu passing her bouse ul ways sets her to mourning' over loss. She spent much of her tiniis in devising schemes to harass the company, and several times evading the watchfulness of her husbandsbe placed here-ilr on the tbe track when a train was approach iug and forced it to come to a stand stiil till she was removed by force from the rail (_) ie night late in the fall of 1577 old Mr Wilbelm woke up acd found that his wile was not in bed H" quiekiy arose, au i looking out of tbj window saw a white figure hurrying across the lot between the bouse aud tbe railroad track He at once knew that the ti_ure was that of bis wife in her nigh', clothes, and that she was undoubtedly on ber way to the railrdad to lorce so.no train to stop and lay still until she wis taken off tbo track, as sbe hid done sevenl times before. "Without waiting to put on his clothes, Wiiheliti rushed from the home and followed his wife. She disappeared in the little strip of woods lie twee a the lot aud the rail road, and by tha time he reached woods ho he-trd tbe souud of aa itp proachiug train and he k'lew it must be the fast express with old Bill King on tbo engine, and that meant thu this train was more than humming along. Wilbelm Hi# through the piece of woods, aud an he came out on the otner side be saw his wife standing on the track, waving her band up aud down, while tho head light of old Bill's locomotive was so near that it threw gUre full ou her. Old Biil bid seen the figure in white sumo distance hack, whistled for brakes and reversed his engine, hut the grade was so sharp and the rails so slippery that tho train came tearing right on "The white figure never moved, and just as Bill was ab tut shutting his eyes to hide the terror that was inevitable another while spraug on the rails jui?t abend of the eugine and threw itself agiiust the oue stauding there as if to force it off It was too late, and the piloi struck both figures and burled theui < U' iato the woods The train WAS utopyed as soon as possible uud bu.ck> d to the scene of the tragedy. aud the dead bodies of the old man aud tiis wife were picked up. The company had them buried, of course, aud their old homf was bought by u farmer, "Bill King never got over that night. lie made one or two tri[»s alter that and then resigned. Me said.he could not run that Cranberry grade, for he saw the old man and his wife every night. The thing worked on his mind till it ruined his health, and bj died a year afterward Not long afte/w-trd one of the engi neers on the road came into Renfrew otie ni/bt with the story that as he was coming down Cranb-rry swiirnp Krade two white figure, > appeared on the track 100 yard-or so uh-ad of hint, and at thesam-t tinn he felt the lever jerked from his hand and quick ly reverted, while the whistle aound ed sharply for bra ken. The train slowed but da-hed up m the two whiie figures, which disappeared At the same time tb" throttle was open ed again, aud the train in >voi on as before. "This story wii3 laughed at, but when other oijifio«<«rri wn > ran this same train, womb wa.s BiH KUIX'H old traiu, came in with the daunt ntory, with tbo addition tb it l>s 11 King biid Ht.uod iu the cab as plain us day aud reveraed tb.- In ver a i I wliis tied f.ir break-*, it began t<> belie/ed and men begun to le:iv« th« road. 1 touk the place of the fireman oo the train and *aid I'd Sik<> to aee tuch bluff an that a;b'irit »t >ry scare mo off Tan very »fir«t run I made the two ghost a appeared on the Cranberry grade, and old Bill Kin# fto.id in tbe cab, and handled tbe throttle and the whistle cord until tbe diaup ptared, aud thou be was goue.
