A SEANCE. _____ N Gooaotown il II lir Mrs. Dr. Bolus began practice as a faith curlst. M | 1 She had a framed jf UJ I /f~\ y/!\ diploma in her jJ \ ''parlor, given by ll\vl snft IllfllthQ College of li ll '\l I'll 11'IIt Cranks, which ||| |l 'H H ///II described her as LI Il' 1///// " a graduate;" 1. j I j and her mode of ■ \ I ' '/' m ° Ure WaS V6r^' m IfiV 111 i ll lff hands and look 111 I'll ' nto eyes," .JOHN II |Uj she would say, Alkt j/I nffo " an d say these J/] word ß filter me: nothin" the mat ter with my head; I aint got nothin' the matter with my lungs; I aint got nothin' the matter with my indigestion; and I aint got nothin' the matter with none of mine senses—allylujer bt thanked—and may I never hev.'" After this had been repeated nine times, Mrs. Bolus said : "Now you feel better, don't you? I knowed it," uud the patient was sup posed to be on the high road to re covery. As hypochondriacs are rather plenti ful, it was not long before Goosetown rather beliovod in her. "It was such a refined way of being cured," the ladies said} "and so much better than pillsand It was not until a case of cancer and two of consumption had failed to yield to the treatment, and a cordn-'s jury had censured Mrs. Bolus and tnpdiotic relatives who had called her in, that she felt her power waning. Then she adopted a new idea, and be come a materializing medium. A eabi nefcwas sot up in her bask parlor, r wmch persons of imaginative dlspo tions saw the faces of their deportee friends, and whence issued words or wisdom, couched in language which proved that Llndley Murray, Brown, and other authorities on English grammar, had passed on to higher spheres. Many and many a seance was held in that small parlor, and In the darkness people were patted on the head and lunched on the cheek. Widows who could poorly spare the dollars they dropped into the palm of the medium, came there to weep behind their black veils, and "hope It really was John, though he never spoke that way in life," and giggling girls and witty beaux ar rived In parties lo laugh at everything; and Mrs. Bolus prospered. Now the hahdsomost house in Goose town was the residence of old Mrs. Nor ris ; and old Mrs. Norris was fond of the occult. In the days of the first rappingo she had listened to the performances of the wily Fox sisters, who have so lately confessed that they humbugged half the wiseacres of the day with their pliant toes, and she listened with interest to all that her friends told her of Mrs. Bolus. "I'm goin to havetho woman here," she said. "I shan't bo able to feel as svre in her own house, with trap-doors and slidiug-panels, f6r all I know. But I'll have the seanco here in my blue par lor, that has only one door; the key of that will be in my pocket after the cabi net is brought in. If any;.ling appears it must bjp genuineund iiuving nego tiated with Mrs. Bolus, old Mrs. Norris got together a large party at S3 a head, and bade her send the cabinet on Wed nesday afternoon. "You needn't come with it," she said, "and you'll allow yourself to be exam ined by the commltteo before you go into it." Mrs. Bolus acquiescod. "I don't know what tho spirits will do, of course," sho said. "I haven't an idea whatwill happen." For once she spoke the truth. The cabinet arrived rather ineffi ciently carried by two smalkboys; a lit tle crowd assembled at the gate, and Sara Jnne, the housemaid, replied to the queries propounded to her, thu Mrs. Bolus was to hold a dark seance there that evening. A stout young man. whom she had novor seen before, lis tened with attention, aua afterward oi fered to help the boys up the steps with the cabinet, which was a large wardrobe with a square shutter in the door, ami a bolt on the outside. Just as they en tered the blue room some one called Sara Jane away, and when she returned her mistress was looking up the cabinet. "There," sho said, after searching the door of tho blue parlor, " no one euu play tricks on mo to-night." Sho was somewhat excited. So was Sara Jane, so was tho cook, for both were to be permitted to view tho perform ances on their positive promises not to shriek aloud, whatever happened. Mrs. Norris, who asked none bui ladies, had delicately hinted that full dress wouid be more flattering to tie spirits, and tho guests arrived in cos tumes that were supposed to represent that condition in Goosetown. Queen Victoria wouid havo banished them from her presence, 110 doubt, for their bucks were generally covered, but they had 01. all their iinory; their lace tubus, th'-n earrings, and bracelets, and fancy bit,i pins, ami sashes, and bouquets of ro~, ► It was quite a pretty assemblage the crowded in tho blue parlor, an a r garde,! the w.luut wardrobe with sum awe. Mrs. Norris was habited in bla • velvet, with her diamonds well display,' • and her husband's minaturo about 1,, nock; and on Mrs. Bolus's ariivai tie lawyer's wife and the doctor's wife led her to a bedroom, whence they shortly emerged, conducting her. "There nothing about her to play triek? with," said the lawyer's wi "That 111 swear to." The doctor's spouse nodded. "We've looked in her pockets and f<, the hems of her clothing, and her bu<a. is a wire ,e o lit Is all right," sho snio. "And as sim , .to 1)0 tied, we've g some tape , it ol your basket, Jit Norris." "Very well, said the old lady. key of the cabinet is in my pock,, And she produced it. "Now tie me," said Mrs. Bolus, ";u tie me tight; end sot a cheer into cabin fit, and sot me onto It; and If 1 groan ilon't mind. It's only the taflawea. Dont tueh me or come anear me. Tba voices will be plain tonight, if figures don't appear. "Shut the door, Sara Jane," said Mrs. Norris, "and put your chair against It. Now we are all right." Then, at Mrs. Bolus's request, the lights were turned low, a semi-darkness prevailed, and the guests sang, "Shall We Gather at the lliver?" During this performance Mrs. Bolus slipped liei supple wrists out of the tape loops, and had just covered her face with a handkerchici prior to presenting It at the peep-nolo and squeaking out a spirit message, when a hand touched her head. "What is that?" she shrieked. "A spirit, of course," loplied the voioe. "A spirit?" gasped Mrs. Bolus, "Oh, good Heaving ! it is true, thou!" "You'll find that out to your cost Utter a word, and I'll blight you," said the spirit. "I heard voices!" cried one amongst the audience. "One was a man's," sighed Mrs. Nor ris. "I believo wo are going to have something wonderful." "I shall die!" moaned Mrs. Bolus in the cabinet. The spirit meanwhile secured her neatly to her chair. ••What au awful uoise!" shivered a nervous lady, and at that moment u face appeared at the little window. "It's a man's!" cried Mrs. Norris. "It's twice us big as Mrs. Bolus' is," whispered a guest. "It looks like ray poor, dear Aminadab in his youth!" sail) Mrs. Norris. "Who calls me!" said the spirit. "DM any one ask for Auiluadab?" ?t"I did," said Mrs. Norris. "Oh, dear! dear! dear! Oh, Aminadab, is it you?" "I have been permitted to return," said the spirit. "I shall now material ize In your presence." "Oh! Oh !Oh ! Oh!" cried Mrs. Bolus lu the cabinet. "My powerful influenoe effeots the medium," remarked the spirit. The door opened slowly, and all pres ent saw a man in the room; a well-built person, with dark hair, he seemed in .the durkness. Ho stood quite quiet for a moment, and then remarked ; "It is with a great effort that I appear to you. I am Amlnadab—we hove 110 family name in the spirit world. I desire to embraoe my wife, but the room is not dark enough." "Make It dark, thon, my dear," sobbed poor old Mrs. Norris. "I'm most dead with fright, but I'm so glad to see you." The spirit was seen to lift Its hand to the chandelier, the darkness deepened and the form approached the old lady; It patted her on the head, It patted her ears, it touched her neck, it smoothed her hands. "It's Aminadab," she repeated. "I don't feel the least bit frightened now." "He's touching mo; how natural he is!" gasped the lawyer's wife. " Come here, do, Mr. Norris," said the doctor's helpmeet, and each by turn uttered an exclamation. Everybody was patted, and pawed, and lingered by the materialized spirit. Meanwhile the me uiiiin in the cabinet uttered smothered i.loans, but no one heard her. "Ho is kissing me!" shrieked Sara Jane, at the door. "Oh 1 Oh ! Oh !" "Mr. Norris!" said the old lady, rather sharply. "I beg of you !" "I have offended," said the spirit. "I wiH return whence I came." Ho upproaelied the cabinet, while Mrs. Norris sighed: "Don't be so touchy, Aminudab!" But as ho passed beneath the chande lier, it was extinguished : the room was iu utter darkness. Sara Jane cried out.: "Oh, don't!" And then; "He's ovorsot, me 1" The dismal moans continued in the cabinet, and no more manifestations oc curred. "I wonder whether it is not over," said the lawyor's wife at last. "Perhaps I'd better light the gas and look at Mrs. Bolus; she eems to suffer." "Do, dear," said Mrs. Norris. "I'm convinced. I'm a spiritualist forever. That was Aminadab. Just so he used to take his hat and bang out of doors if I said a word. He was a very fine man, but he had a temper." By this time a light was lit. The cab inet door was softly opened. Mrs. Bolus was found bound tied to her chair, with a handkerchief stuffed into her mouth, and in an hysterical condition. They unbound and ungagged her, placed her on a sofa, produced cold water and co logne, fans and smelling-salts. Finally she spoke. "It was a real spirit!" she said. "It tied me, and stuffed the handkerchief into my mouth. It was as natural as life !" "Nobody doubts tho manifestation," said tho doctor's wife. "How could they? You certainly took no man into the cabinet." "Never will I try this thing again," said Mr. Bolus —"never!" Maidenly a lady spoke out sharply: "My watch is gone!" she cried. "My diamonds, too!" said Jlrs. Nor ris; "und poor, dear Aruinadab's minia ture !" Little squeals rosounded on all sides. Everybody had lost some jewelry. Sud denly tho medium uttered a shriek. "My money is gone?" she said—"the money you collected for mc, Mrs. Norris —I had it in my pocket!" "Oh. mum!" cried Sarnh Jnno, who had Stepped out of the room, re-entering with uplifted hands and eyes—"oh mum! tho silver is all goue out of the dining room ! and your bureau drawers are ail bust open!" And so in fact it proved. The house had been robbed as well as the guosls; and Mrs. Norris, rising in her wrath, declared that she had been duped, and that tho medium had a confederate; sent for tho police and had her arrested : and all tho while tho unfortuuato Mrs. Bolus was perfectly innocent, and be liove,! from her soul that n ghost had actually appeared to wreak vengeance upon her, and so swore upon her trial. However, the affair was very simply explained. Tho young man who had so kindly helped the boys to carry the cabinet into Jlrs. Norris's blue parlor had concealed himself within it, and In the character of a materialized spirit had f :,d his opportunity to appropri ate tin' iewlry, silver, and other valu ables, which no ono iu Goosetown ever saw again.—Now York Lodger.

Altoona Time®. Mrs. Kate Matthews and her only child, wife and dauglitcr of our esteemed friend, Mr. Thomas Matthews, and Miss Frances Goff, daughter of Mr. Peter Goff, formuuiuu of boiler inspectors for the Cambria Iron Works, all residents of Johnstown, are visiting at the hospitable home of Mr. D. A. Reagan, of 1915 Eleventli avenue, this city. Miss Goff, although only about fourteen years of age, is said to'be quite an accomplished pianist, beside being the possessor of a sweet and melodious voice. Miss Goff's fnther, just before the fearful flood struck Johnstown, warned a number of his fel low workmen of the impending danger, but they laughed at his fears and left him to seek his own safety by fleeing to the hillside, which he did, leaving them to their fate, which soon came, wiping them and thousands of others out of existence. An Kclio of th .Johnstown Flood. Pittsburgh Leader. This morning Adam Wagner, of Brook lyn. N. Y., appeared at the Allegheny mayor's office with the power of attorney to take charge of his brother's trunk, which had been found by the Allegheny police a short distance up the river the day after the disastrous flood. It appears that his brother, Henry Wagner, with his wife and two children were all lost at Johnstown, and this trunk is all they have been able to find that belonged to them, they having noticed the finding of the trunk in the Leader. In the trunk were three policies of insurance iu the Pruden tial Life Insurance Company on the wife, father and son, amounting to about 6500. He took the trunk with him. Marriage License.
