MY GHOSTLY COMPANION "Come at once. Mr. Thomas Warrington is dangerously ill and wishes to see you." This was a telegraphic message which I received one cold January morning about six years ago. Surprise was my chief feeling at the moment, for Mr. Thomas Warrington had never been more than a name to me, although he was my uncle. I had never seen him, and had never felt any particular desire to do so, not from any dislike or grudge I bore the old man, but simply because I had forgotten all about him. Certainly he was my uncle, my father's elder brother, but for years before my father's death there had been a feud between them relating to a small estate which my father claimed, and which my uncle, though a rich man with much property, also claimed. A court of law settled the matter after much delay and anger on either side. My uncle was able to pay for expert counsel, my father was not, for except this small estate which caused the quarrel, he had nothing but the precarious income of an author. My uncle fought hard, grasping old man that he was, and won his case. But this had all happened so long ago, in the days of my extreme youth, that I had never given a second thought, certainly never a serious one to the story. Hard words had passed between the brothers, I believe, very hard words, and my uncle had sworn loudly and deeply that he detested the sight of my father, and hoped never to set eyes on him or his again as long as he lived. Perhaps you think it was unusual for a young man of no means never to give a second thought to an uncle who was the possessor of money and lands, but it really is a fact, and although my uncle was rich and childless, I knew that he detested me and my connections, and his estate was unentailed. I myself was a very young barrister, with enough to think about, and up to the present, as much as I could do to get through my examinations. Some friends of mine were talking the other day about strange things which had happened to them, and it set me thinking about the only really strange thing that ever happened to me, and I record the circumstances, hoping that awaiting me I got in and mme rusn or other thoughts I soon forgot him. "How is Mr. Warrington by this time? I asked the coachman. "He died this morning, sir," was the reply. And then followed the details of his illness and death, which lasted until we reached Ashford Hall, my uncle's house. I rang the bell, and was soon admitted by a stout, comfortable looking woman, who showed me to my room, where I began to wonder what I had better do. It was rather an awkward position to come, a perfect stranger, at the bidding of another stranger, and find him dead on arrival. At length I went down stairs, and the same kindly looking woman met me in the hall and gave me more details of my uncle's illness and his great desire to see me. Then she supposed that I should like to see the corpse, and so evidently expected me to answer in the affirmative that I did so, and she led the way up the broad staircase and down a long passage. At the end of this passage she opened the door of a dimly lighted room and we entered, she carrying a candle. We went together to the bedside, and she holding the candle high with one hand, gently lifted the sheet with the other and disclosed—the white, clear cut features of my traveling companion. This was the first and last thing of the kind that ever happened to me, and is still unexplained. I stayed on at Ashford Hall for the funeral, and found myself on the reading of my uncle's will, sole heir to all his possessions—True Flag. A Negro's Terrible Revenge. In Hayti and Martinique the venom of the terrible serpent indigenous to those islands, the formidable fer de lance, has been often employed by the negroes in disposing of their enemies. A horrible, but well authenticated instance of negro ingenuity and malevolence is told in Martinique. A huge negro, recently imported from the Guinea coast, had been whipped by the order of his master, one of the great planter princes of the island while it was under French rule. The victim made no complaint, but mediated revenge. By long search he found the lair of a pair of serpents in the garden adjacent to the house. Watching his opportunity he killed one and dragged its body through a window that was awaiting me I got in and mme rusn or other thoughts I soon forgot him. "How is Mr. Warrington by this time?

I myself was a very young barrister, with enough to think about, and, up to the present, as much as I could do to get through my examinations. Some friends of mine were talking the other day about strange things which had happened to them, and it set me thinking about the only really strange thing that ever happened to me, and I record the circumstances, hoping that some reader may be able to afford me an explanation. Well, to go back to the telegram. I was certainly very much surprised, and for a minute or two stood staring at the alp of pink paper in an absent minded sort of way. Then it occurred to me that I was wasting time. The telegram demanded my presence, and I had no time to waste. I looked at my Bradshaw, found that I had an hour before the next train started, so ate my breakfast calmly, and packed a portmanteau, feeling glad for the first time since I had become a full blown barrister that no pressure of work detained me in town. I soon found a corner seat in a smoking carriage, and resigned myself to a fairly long journey on this cold January day. I had taken my place in very good time, so amused myself by watching the people hurrying to and fro, and was a good deal attracted by a white haired old gentleman who slowly passed backward and forward at short intervals before the carriage in which I sat, and who, every time he passed, seemed to look at me with a far away expression in his eyes. I was beginning to feel interested in the old fellow, when the train started, and I soon forgot all about him. By bad luck the train which I had managed to catch was a terribly slow one, which stopped at almost every station big and small, and I was surprised always to see the same white haired old gentleman passing to and fro on the platform every time we stopped. He never passed without looking at me with the same faraway expression in his eyes. At the first few stations I scarcely noticed him, but after a bit I began to wonder who he was and why he paraded about in that manner, and took a sort of lazy interest in him, pitying the poor old fellow for having to travel on such a bleak day. The journey was certainly a tedious one, but I found a good deal to occupy my thoughts—my uncle, whom I had never seen; the old quarrel; the chances of his relenting in the matter of my father's estate, for surely he would not summon me from London for no other purpose than that I might make personal inquiries as to his health. The day wore on, and the short winter afternoon began to close in. We had passed most of the larger and busier towns, and were coming to villages and small stations. All my fellow travelers had left the carriage, being mostly business men they had reached their several destinations in the larger towns and I been often employed by the negroes in disposing of their enemies. A horrible, but well authenticated instance of negro ingenuity and malevolence is told in Martinique. A huge negro, recently imported from the Guinea coast, had been whipped by the order of his master, one of the great planner princes of the island while it was under French rule. The victim made no complaint, but mediated revenge. By long search he found the lair of a pair of serpents in the garden adjacent to the house. Watching his opportunity he killed one and dragged its body to the house through a window that was always open and into the bedroom of the beautiful daughter of the planter. He dragged it to the bed, lifted the coverings and coiled the reptile on the sheet. When this was done he carried the dead snake away and cast it into an adjacent stream. As night approached the serpent's mate followed the trail, crept through the open window and to the bed of the planter's daughter. The latter, half awake, made a motion to brush away the intruder. Instantly the fangs were buried in her neck, and in a few hours she was a corpse.—St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Early French Playing Cards. The French are believed to be the first people in Europe to use playing cards, and as first made, cards were supposed to represent the different classes of persons in the kingdom. The hearts were the "choir men," or ecclesiastics, and early cards of this suit have a cope which, in form, somewhat resembles a heart. The figure by us called a spade was originally a pike head; and typified the nobility and soldiery; the artisans were represented by a stone tile, now known as diamond, while the farmers were symbolized by the trefoil or clover leaf, by us called a club. The four kings were originally David, Alexander, Caesar and Charlemagne, representing the four great monarchies, while the queens were Argine, Ether, Judith and Pallas, typical of birth, piety, fortitude and wisdom, Argine being an agamagor for Regina. The knaves were either knights or servants to knights, but which is uncertain, though the former conjecture is the more probable, from the fact that on cards of an early date appear the names of famous knights.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Rome's Artistic Degeneracy. The Rome of 1870 was dirty but dignified; inconvenient for people with modern tastes, but most comfortable for those who had adapted themselves to its medieval ways. The Rome of 1890 is comfortable or nobody; the acres of new palaces that were to be are mainly huge, ugly tenement houses, stuccoed filmsies, abhorrent without and inapplicable within—a tasteless waste, where the highest virtue is fragility and the noblest destiny demolition. The transformation of Rome during the past twenty years is unique in the history of civilization for barbarism, extravagance and one, but I found a good deal to occupy my thoughts—my uncle, whom I had never seen; the old quarrel; the chances of his relenting in the matter of my father's estate, for surely he would not summon me from London for no other purpose than that I might make personal inquiries as to his health. The day wore on, and the short winter afternoon began to close in. We had passed most of the larger and busier towns, and were coming to villages and small stations. All my fellow travelers had left the carriage, being mostly business men they had reached their several destinations in the larger towns, and I sat alone in my corner, when the old white haired gentleman, whom I was beginning to look upon as rather eccentric, turned the handle of the carriage door, came in, and sat down in the corner opposite to me. He said not a word, but gazed out at the landscape in a dreamy manner, while I took the opportunity to examine his appearance more closely. He was tall, thin and looked emaciated, with clearly cut features of a waxen color, and wonderfully blue eyes. He wore an old fashioned, low crowned silk hat, and a long, thick coat with a fur collar. The expression of his face reminded me of some one, but I could not remember of whom. I did not notice all this at once, for I did not like to stare too long at the old gentleman, but I need not have troubled myself, for he never turned his eyes from the window. The evening drew on, the daylight faded and the lamps were lighted, and still he kept his eyes fixed and gazed out of the window into the darkness, while the dim light of the oil lamp shone down on his pale features, and I smoked hard and said nothing. I think I must have dozed for a little while, then I heard the guard calling "Ashbridge road! Ashbridge road!" and I started up, grabbed at my portmantean and prepared to get out of the carriage; for I had reached my destination; but my companion also rose, turned and looked me full in the face with a look which seemed to make my blood grow chilly, stepped out before me and I followed. The station was certainly very badly lighted and the night was pitch dark, but I was rather surprised when I got outside neither to see nor hear any sign or sound of my fellow passenger. However, I thought it did not matter to me where he had gone, so finding a carriage The Rome of 1870 was dirty but dignified; inconvenient for people with modern tastes, but most comfortable for those who had adapted themselves to its mediaeval ways. The Rome of 1890 is comfortable or nobody; the acres of new palaces that were to be are mainly huge, ugly tenement houses, stuccoed films, abhorrent without and inapplicable within—a tasteless waste, where the highest virtue is fragility and the noblest destiny demolition. The transformation of Rome during the past twenty years is unique in the history of civilization for barbarism, extravagance and corruption; never since the world began was so much money spent to do so much evil.—Atlantic.

Thus the child is rendered healthy and its sleep natural. Castoria contains no Morphine or other narcotic property. "Castoria is so well adapted to children that recommend it as superior to any prescription known to me." H. A. Archer, M.D., 111 South Oxford St., Brooklyn, N.Y. "I use Castoria in my practice, and find it specially adapted to affections of children." Alexx Robertson, M.D., 1037 M Ave., New York. "From personal knowledge and observation can say that Castoria is an excellent medicine for children, acting as a laxative and relieving the pent up bowels and general system very much. Many mothers have told me of its excellent effect upon their children." Dn. G. C. Osooon, Lowell, Mass. THE CENTAUR COMPANY, 77 Murray Street, N.Y. H. A. STOUGH. —BLACKSMITHING.

That said property will not and cannot be benefited by irrigation by the system of works proposed by said district, or at all, and that the assessment levied, and proposed to be levied on said property for the local purposes of said district cannot benefit said property. That whatever benefits arise from said system are and must be from the peculiar nature and use of the property above described (which is devoted exclusively to railroad uses and purposes) and not to cultivation), of a general nature and in no manner specially advantageous to said property.

BEST INTERESTS Of this Valley, And Prints the Latest And Most Reliable NEWS Will be sent to any part of the United States, Postage Prepaid, for $2 00. Per Year. Ever since the establishment of the first paper on the bay of San Francisco, which we believe was the "Alta," removed from Monterey in 1893, the inhabitants of the Coast generally have been interested in the news from San Francisco. The "Alta," like many other pioneers of 49, has succeeded to the inevitable and gone over to the great majority, and, like other pioneers, has been succeeded by younger generations. The "Examiner" has taken perhaps the most prominent place in the newspaper field of late years, and its Weekly edition is very generally taken by those who want an interesting and reliable paper published at "The Bay." Everyone is familiar with the Premium Offers made by Mr. Hearst, the "Examiner's" enterprising publisher, and it is only necessary to say that this year the aggregate value of the premiums—of which there are 5,000—is $125,000, which are distributed among all the subscribers to the paper. In addition to these premiums, which range in value from 60 cents to $7,500, every subscriber receives one of the four great premium pictures, which will be mailed to him in a tube direct from the "Examiner" office as soon as the subscription is received: "The Retreat from Moscow," by Melissonier. "The Roman Charlot Race," by A. Wagner. Each of these pictures is 21x28 inches, and they are elegantly reproduced in facsimile, showing every tint and color of the great originals, either one of which could not be purchased for $100,000. "Women and Children First," by C. Napler Hemy "Christ Leaving the Praetorium," by Gustave Doré Each of these pictures is reproduced in photogravure, size 21x28, and eminently fitted for framing, and will adorn the walls of the most refined home. The subscription price of the "Weekly Examiner" is $1.50, and subscriptions may be sent either direct to W. K. Hearst, Publisher, San Francisco, through the Local Agent of the "Examiner" or Postmaster. MISCELLANEOUS. FRITZ RUHmann's New Place. BACKS' NEW BUILDING, LOS ANGELES STREET.
