QUEER DEATH OF OLD JABEZ.
The Uncanny Incident That Disturbed
the Quiet of an Old Virginia Home.
A Nightly Tramp That Never Ceased
Until the House Was Demolished.
. "1 am not exactly prepared to sny
that I believe In ghosts," said tbe old
gentleman from Virginia, "but at. the
same time, in view of certain things
that have been told me by persons
whose reputations for veracity do not
admit of a doubt, 1 cannot allow my
self to ridicule the Ideas of others who
do believe in an occasional return to
earth of the dead.
"There Is one case In particular that
I know of personally aud that can be
vouched for by a number of citizens
in the uppt't' cumulus of my state, nnd
that is the case of old Uncle Jabcz
Mnrtln, who knfcw a number of well
to do farmers in' Fauquier as well as
in Spottsylvania, Rappahannock and
other counties In the northern part of
the state. 'Uncle Jabe,' as most every
one who knew the old fellow called
him, hnd considerable of the nomad In
bis disposition and led a wandering,
pastoral life. He was always willing
to work when any one needed his serv
ices nnd did a good deal of rough car
pentering in return for a "meal o'
wittles and a shakedown,' as he ex
pressed it, and as he was pretty well
known in the land of his pilgrimages
It was a rare occurrence when he was
not given a welcome.
"If old Uncle Jabe thought more of
one family in the state than he did of
another It was the Greens. Virginia,
as all know. Is full of Greens. An es
timable crowd they are. and nearly all
of them consider themselves as relat
ed in some decree of consanguinity to j
the others of that name. 'The Greens
of Virginia Is the finest tribe of that
name in seven states,' was the con
stant boast of Uncle Jabe, nnd nbove
and beyond any other Green anywhere
he placed Marse Dickie Green of Fau-
quler, and thnt Is where my ghost
story, if you will please to consider It
as such, begins.
"One wild night In the month of Oc
tober not very long before the war the
old wanderer made his appearance at
Squire Green's. Sir. Green was called
squire by virtue of being a Justice of
the peace. Jabe wanted his usual
'meal o' wittles and shakedown,' and
It was at his service, as usual, and
after a good supper he sat on the back
steps of the house, smoked his old
pipe for awhile and then went to bed.
"Squire Green was engaged In some
work that kept him up until midnight,
and as the clock struck 12 he heard a
heavy sound on the stairway. It seem
ed as If some one was coming down the
steps with heavy irons on the legs.
The sound was carried to the door,
which was opened noisily and then
closed with a terrific crash.
"Thinking it strange that old Jabes
Martin would be guilty of making
such unnecessary noise, the squire
rushed to the door and opened it The
moon was shining in ail its beauty,
and everything was perfectly calm and
nobody in sight Back again went the
surprised squire and up into the attic
chamber, where Martin always slept
when he, made his calls. He found

everytning calm and quiet there. It
was the quiet of death, for old Uncle
J n 1)0 was lying supine on his back,
with his glassy eyes staring right up
to the ceiling, where the squire left
him until the morning.
"When he related the circumstances
in the morning It seemed that every
other one of the house had been dis
turbed by the uncanny noises. The
strange part of It Is that next night
the same sounds were beard again,
even to the slamming of the door, and
an Investigation proved that there was
no person to make them. There were
no cowards In Squire Green's family,
but the noises disturbed them, and
when they were heard, as they were,
frequently at midnight they became so
used to them they would simply re
mark that 'Untie Jabe was tramping
again' and go to sleep again.
"Friends nnd neighbors who knew of
the ghostly exercises were averse to
staying all night in the house, and the
darkies couldn't be bribed to come near
the plnce after nightfall. The sounds
never ceased until after tho house was
torn down, nnd even Its demolition.
which It was hoped might reveal the
source of Its strange and grewsome
sound, failed to present any explana
tion. There are folks living today In
Fauquier county," snld the relater of
the ghost story, "who can, and I have
no doubt readily will, testify to the
truth of what I have made mention
of." Washington Fost

BENEFITSJtTDISEASE.
Typhoid, if You Pull Through,
Gives You a New Stomach.
GOOD EVEN IN RHEUMATISM.
That Painful Affliction Keeps Other
Miseries Out of the System and Is a
Promoter of Long Life Blessings of
Colds and 8mallpox.
To be struck down by disease seems
a most undesirable thing, yet there are
many living today in the fullest en
Joyment of very excellent health who
but for an attack of some disease
would have lived a life of almost per
petual misery.
Tlieso peoplo were, first of all, vic
tims of indigestion In its worst form,
nnd only those who have experienced
it know what true indigestion is.
Struck down by typhoid fever, they
romo through the trying ordeal cured
of indigestion, for one outstanding ec
centricity of typhoid Is that if you
pass through an attack safely it gives
you a new stomach. In fact, after an
nttsick of typhoid the victim is usually
left with a stomach like an infant.
That is the grand chance offered to
one who has suffered, It may be, for
long years from acute Indigestion. If
only he takes care, after an attack of
typhoid ho need never know indiges
tion again. ,
Bo it remembered that any one trou
bled with severe indigestion is not nd
vlsed to go hunting around for typhoid
fever. That might prove to be a disas
trous course to follow.
A chronic cold Is Just one of those
things which none of lis want, yet
even a chronic cold has Its good points,
more especially If you happen to be up
In years a bit not too old. or course.
People who nre up in years and who
suffer from chronic bronchitis seem
to get remarkably well. It keeps tbe
blood in good circulation, for, of
course, the victims have to cough, nnd
that gives the heart n jerk nnd sends
the blood coursing nicely through tbe
veins and arteries.
If the cold be not too acute, old peo
plo derive considerable benefit. An
ncute attack, on tbe other baud, may
cut off nn old person in n day or two.
It Is the chronic type only which yields
benefit. .
Smallpox is a dreaded scourge, so
much so that If it be reported that a
case exists In a neighborhood a thrill
passes through the whole community.
Yet those who suffer from smallpox
and recover usually live to a green old
age. It seems to renew life in some
mysterious way by thoroughly purify
ing the blood.
If, however, you desire to attain to
a ripe old age, you cannot get on at nil
without rheumatism. Consider the
hosts of old folks you encounter hob
bling about, grumbling all the day
about their bones and Joints. In all
probability these old people would
have been In their graves years be
fore but for this very rheumatism.
The reason is that if rheumatism Is
in the system it keeps other ills out
It makes a grand fighting force and
keeps most other enemies of the hu
man frame at bay, especially those of
the germ type.
Very naturally if you have such a
grand friend at band you have to pay
something for aid rendered, but the
pain of rheumatism, If shockingly se
vere at times, is not deadly, and tbnt
is why one gets so little sympathy
when Buffering from rheumatism.
But the plain fact is that a slight
malady always benefits you, even if
Indirectly. As an example of that,
say a very bad spell of weather comes
along, cold and wet, and you contract
a slight chill.
What do you propose to do? Why,
to take the greatest care of yourself
and make as certain as possible that
your cold gets no chance of develop
ing Into anything worse. Now, did
that very slight cold not moke its ap
pearance and cause you to be ex
tremely careful of what you did there
Is no saying what might happen to
you any day during a spell of evil, cold
weather. You might have exposed
yourself so much that a severe chill
would have seized you, followed by
inflammation of the lungs.
Accordingly a slight cold may easily
save you from many worse Ills.
In this way minor afflictions act as
warnings that worse things are com
ing along, but unfortunately many
persons quite neglect these warnings.
.A man, for example, has indigestion
more or less constantly, yet pays little
heed, always expecting that it will dis
appear one day. Now, if be bad Just;
paid attention to the matter at the be
ginningheeded the warning, in short
he might not have been let In for
severe liver attack later on.
Every pain, every ache, every head
acheall these are . warnings that
something else is on the way and will
be along shortly. Pearson's Weekly.

TURKISH ARMY OFFICERS.
They Are Neither Loved Nor Respect
ed by Their Men.
Very seldom If he can ht'.p it does
the Turkish army officer appear on
horseback, and when not on duty be
looks upon bis horse merely as a meth
od of locomotion. He has no affection
or' understanding for the horse. The
superior officers have no horses of their
own, and, being generally bad riders
nnd without military qualities which
would raise them In the estimation of
their men, they are neither loved nor
respected by them. Married officers
t.eep entirely to themselves, such
tilings as invitations to one another's
bouses being unknown, nnd the only
occasions upon which officers meet to
gether at all are on the days of assem
bly, when they are called together for
the sultan's birthday or accession cele
brations. Tho pay of the lower ranks is as
small as that of tbe superior officers is
high. The young cavalry officer who
makes a good Impression on his entry
Into the service soon falls to pieces
through want of occupation either of
mind or body. The greater part of
the morning and evening be sits over
coffee and cards or dominoes.
There are but few newspnpers, and
those that do exist are so severely
censored by the government that they
contain little but weather statistics,
gazettes and announcements of the be
stowal of decorations.
What the Turkish officer really thor
