i TQID OMAHA DAILY BF E : SATURDAY , JUNE W , 1881 , < > THE HAUMDJQUSE , , V MARIEltAV.fi * , ' * * 1 am a poor inan quly. ! clerk with H salary of two iouMii per nnmini. I have a wife and.Iwo cliildrcii-y-aa pfcttjwife mid as uicd. Hula , ciiil- dron as can bo found within a hundred miles of New .York , and I am lire- pared to fight any man smaller than ! who' pretends to doiij it. Now'having n pretty wifo'and nice children , I naturally desire to place them in a good position. I have a weakness for a nice house , plenty ol pictures , fine china , and so forth. So has my wife. I liku to boo Mrs. Martyn dressed handsomely , and my little ones fork ing M well as the next man's children , airs. Martyn docs not object to bcitiu lianthonioly dressed , and dotes 111x111 our little tines till they look like little fairies. Now it must bo obvious to the tuoan- cst capacity that a aaWy.of two thou sand u year won't do much toward a line house filled with fine art. Mrs. Martyn and myself talked the matter over , and we agreed that the thing wni impossible ; the auiii to bo.o\pondod could not bo nmdo to proeuro all theao things. Said my wife : Mou know , Dick , the rent of n good house in a good , neighborhood is moro than half your ! salary1 , mid il is impossible for us to live , fairly and dress decently onlmt remains oven though I do make all the children's clothes and my own French bonnets. " I was thinking over tlio matter next day down at the store , and Mollio's words-"You know , Dick , the rent is moro than half your salary" kept ringing in my cars. "Of course I know it ! The rent that was the stick. If 1 could only get a nice house for a small amount "Owners off to Europe , " or something of that sort we might make the rest work by careful inanagonicnU "No use ! " I sighed. "Nice houses don't ' rent 'for nothing. . ] ' And fi was nbout to resume wbrkj anq relinquish the lippo when'my friend Johnsfon came in-totsoo me. "What's * thu matter , Martyn ? " ho asked. "You look like a whole fun eral procession. " 'Nothing , " I answered , dubiously ; ' 'o'nly wishing I conlQ rout a fine house for about five hundred dollars. " Johnston looked at me seriously fern n moment ; then , drawing a chair close to mine , he said " / ' J f " "I'll give you one rent'frub if you'll ngrce to live in it ! It's furnished in good style , too . "Where-is it' " I asked. ' Johnston mentioned tli3 street and number. The location was unexcep tional. "What the matter witli it ? " < I de manded. My friend put his lips close to , my ear and whispered one. awful woril "Ghosts ! " I laughed. "Is that all ? Well , as I'm not afraid of anything in the ghost line , and Mollie is not one bit timidI'll agree to live there as long as you'arc pleased to accept thanks for rout. " "All right , Martyn , " said 31r. John ston. ' "I shall bo glad to have you trv it ; but 1 give you fair warning , that you won't bo able to stand it. 1 have had ten tenants in 'two years , and the boldest one remained two weeks. I tried it myself , but it was no use : I had to leave. " "What happonedf" I naked eager ly. ' "Oh , I saw horrible things , " said Johnston turning palo. "Don't ask mo ! " Just then T was called away , by a customer , and had nofurther _ oppor tunity to think about the matter. After our litllo ono's.wero in , bedfor the night 1 told my wife nll about -it , and asked her Opinion in regard to it. Neither of us being superstitious , wo decided to give the house a trial. Said Mollie : . 'Tllscnd the children to AjmtKato's and go with you. Wo can sleep in the house , and take our meals at a restaurant till wo see whether wo can unearth the ghost. ' Next day 1 saw Johnston , asked for a history of the limiso , and told him of our determination to give it-a'trial. "All right/'saidmyfriond. "I know you are a bravo man , and "your .wife true as steel ; nevertheless , I liavo no faith in your ability to outwit the devil ; and the devil certainly holds possession of that houso. If you do you shall have a live years' lease for nothing. I built the house ; before it was completed I was called to En gland by the death of my father. I lolt my business in the hands of my partner , Davis , tolling him that .whon thu house was finished ho could occu py it till my return. Davis did move in , but terrible misfortune overtook him. Ilia only child a lovely , little girl - was attacked with scarlet fever and died. The mother , insane with grief , committed suicide. Poor Davis ! ho couldn't endure the great , silent house after that , and moved out , giv ing permission to his nephew , George Madden , to occupy it. George WAS a pretty wild boy , but ho had about that time married a French wo man with seine money , and'was very glad of the chance to live in so good a house rent free. Mrs. Madden was an ambitious woman , and it aeoms was not satisfied with the plainness of the house , She spent considerable money decorating the ceilings . and placing mirrors in almost every place a mirror could bo placed. You know a French woman will have mirr6ra and curtains if aho goes without shoes and stock ings. After 1 came homo from Eu rope , I concluded , to "live in the 1191130 myself , and gavd the Maddens notice to leave. You novel-saw anything like the rage madam flew into , and some pretty warm words passed be tween her huaban 1 and myself. Tlio upshot of the matter was that I bought his furniture awlrpaid twelve huijdred dollars for his mirroM Binco they could not be removed without disfiguring the walls -libijh { ( } to , jmy tastu all the flummeiy makes the house look to doro , .WpH l Hv.ed in ' it I nit oho week , aiHfgayeiUpij\j $ 4'8r pair ; liaving frightened liiy wife into a njrrpus fever and made mychild 'ti'a. coward for life , I fearrAlihw4J"hot ; told you the whole atq yj and advise .you n/t.tp take'your wife and children with you until you have given the house a trial yourself , " wore the clos ing words of my friondi I reported my interview with John ston to Mollie but she remained firm in her determination to accompany me , III a week the children wcro dis patched to Aunt Kate's , and Mollie and I paid a visit to the haunted house. In appearance , wo found it all wo could desiro. The hall was spacious , the | > arlors high , largo and cli'gnnt , furn ished with all a Frenchwoman's taste. The dining-room which was the third parlor was like the parlors and hall , rich in mirrors. The second lloor was' if possible more elegant than the parlorj , aiure here had crept in together with the show and glitter , an air of cosey com fort , Especially was this true of the little hall room , which was upholstered in blue ? atin , At each point of inter section where usually a button or tuft ' is placed was a crystal ball , which mulcr the gaslight must bo garish mid queer. At least so thought Mollie and I goimr through for the first time. In the day time , with the sun streaming in at the windows , nothing could bo moro charming. The third lloor was a counterpart of the t ] second and the fourth was exactly like the third. In short , the whole place l was bright , pretty and elegant in the extreme. After wo had made the tour of the rest of the house , Mollie and I de scended to the basement , lluro plain ness reigned supreme ; no frescoed ceilings'-no mirrors or pictures on walls ; evidently Mrs. Madden took small interest in this portion of her dwelling. Having convinced ourselves of the desirability of the promises , ns far as pertained to external comforts , Mollie and I separated for the day ; she to do a little necessary shopping , I to at tend to business. The da- passed slowly. Some mis givings on Mollio's account took pos session of me. At last I resolved ) to get her two brothers , Charlie and Ed two gay , devil may care young men to come and bear us cdmpany. AVlien I arrived at the place where wo were to dine and saw Mollic'a face T was glad 1 had done so , for she looked pale and anxioun , though she insisted that she felt no fear. After dinner about half-past six wo all started for the haunted house. The weather w as warm , and as Mol lie had sent bed linen and all ncces sary articles for our use , wo had noth ing to do but await as patiently as wo could the arrival of the ghosts. The rooms wcro close and musty , from their long disuse , and wo wore glad to open the parlor windows , Hut when the shadows began to fall I left Ed with Mollie , and taking Charli went to light the gas , which I had I taken precaution to hove "turned on,1' determined no trick should bu played I mo in the dark. Nothing occurred to alarm us till I we reached the second lloor. J haf I just lighted one burner , and was about to light another , when I was startled I by a sharp cry from Charlie. Turning around I saw him standing with a face like marble , oycn starting from their sockets with horror- and his lips drawi i back and disclosing liis set white teeth. Startled more by his look than by the fear or dread of the something that I knew he saw , I shouted to him"Charlie "Charlie ! Charlie ! what is it , old man ? " Ho clutched my arm with one hand 1 and pointed with the other towcrd 1 the blue room. "For God's sake Dick , " he said 1 hoarsely , "look there. " I tunied slowly around and looked whore ho pointed. In the center of f the little upholstered room , I saw : figure thin , unsubstantial andgigan tic. Tlie eyes wore closed , but one handmoved restlessly to and fro across the forehead. For an instant I was riveted to the spot , blaring with all the fasciuatioi of terror at the unearthly figure re fleeted so horribly in the garish light the next I had recovered myself. Shaking elF Cliailio'a detaining hand I sprang turward , hrandiHhiii"tho gas lighter , and aimed a savage blow at it To my horror the blow passed througl the body , but the object never stirred except to continue the wearied mo tion'of the hand. A moment moro then it disappeared as mysteriously ai it had come. Calling up my native resolution . ' persuaded Charlie to continue threads < roads of the house' with me , and preceded ceded him up stairs. Nothing moro occurred worthy o mention till the time for retiring Charlie and Ed had gone to their roon : the second lloor back and Molli and 1 were about to follow to ours when I saw walking toward mo , a mar with a razor in his hand. I glanceci at Mollie ; her eyes were fixed on the same object ; neither of us spoke , bu' both watched with bated breath. Presently the spcctro began t shave ; suddenly ho cut himself , am the blood streamed down ; he threw the razor away angrily and walked to ward us , passed over us , and disappeared poared into the opposite wall. I was dumb with surprise , Molli white and cold , but firm as a rock. 'Dick , " said she , "did you BO that man ? " "Yes , dear , J am sure I saw some thing. " "Well , whom-did it look like ? " "Very much likoEd , " I replied , a calmly as I could. ' Sol thought , " faltered 'Mollie "Can it bu a warning/ / Lotus son him away. Perhaiis ho will bo murdered derod ! " "No , Mollie , " I answered , "I thin wo can prevent anything of that kin taking place , though wo may not be able to resist being frightened. Boa up , little woman ! To-morrow wo wil give it up , if you say go. There is mystery hero which we may bo abl to discover. Don't let us yield to th o first thing which appears. " ' With the exception pf Mollio' ' anxiety on Ed's account , I confess think , she was loss frightened than ISle Slo ) indignantly refused to give th matter up , or allow niu to investigat wjthout her , After waiting a half-hour , and not ! ing appearing , wo retired-- not t rest. My norvea had been mor strained than I know , and 1 found : impossible to sloop. Each tiny nois grovr big inmy waiting cart ) , and m eyes weru strained in the half light t nee .what there was not , - , { Day , was breaking .when I fell aside | and the sun was * ttfree 'hours vhig I I awoke. Mollie looked R little pale , and Charlie too ; but all reported n quiet night , undisturbed by unseem ly \ Jsitant , "While wo M-ero at breakfast , Moloj lie suddenly turned to Ed with the puostion i "When did you shayo lost ? " "Last night , " was the response. "Why ? " ' "Turn around , " persisted his sister. "What is that court plaster for ? Did you cut yoitrselfl" "Yes should say I did-you should have seen it blood ! But why are you so curious ? " "l > h , nolhing , " said Mollie , with r quick glance at mo. After breakfast , she drew mo aside. "Dick , " said she , "did you hear what Ed said ? " "Yes , " I answered , "and I think you have discovered a clow. Hut say nothing nt present. " My lirst movement was to g o lown to the store and get her permission to take my > veok's holidays then not u dillicull thing to do , as most of the boys preferred to take theirs later in the season. My next , to call upon Mr. Johnston. 1 found him awaityig my arrival , "I k iew you would come , " ho cried before 1 had time to speak. "You can't stun lit cither ? Well ! well ! I'll let the place go as Davis advises , only live thousand olibrod it's too bad too lud ! " "Mr. Johnston , " U interrupted , 'watt a minute. 1 havn't given up yet ; on the contrary , 1 think we have a clew. Will you answer mo a few questions and bo so good as to ask none in return ? When you lived in the house you saw figures which passed throng- ! ! solid substances eamo and went mysteriously , etc. , etc. Now please try and remember ; did thosu , ghosts bear any resemblance to members of your own house hold ? " "I think they sometimes did but not always. The most horrible , tome , was the spirit of the wuman who com mitted 8uicidoMrs. . Davis. " "Did you know Mrs. D.ivis welt ? " 1 naked. "No , not very well , but well enough to recognize her. I tell you , Murtyn , it was awful ! " /'One moro question , " I persisted , "and I have done. Did you use the biiseniunt lloor at all , and if so , did you see any spectre while ( hero ? " "Two eveninga we sat in the front basement. Wo could not keep a ser vant in thu house except an old wo man who went hoinuat night. Neither Mrs. Johnston nor myself carood.much for going through the halls after nightfall ; so wo stayed down stairs till the old woman went home , but I am positive wo novorsawanything strange while there. " "That is thank ' I enough you , re- plied. "Ask mo no question " as ho opened liLt mouth to spunk. "Givo mo tin- week out , and if I do not dis- onchrtiit your house , I'll agree the devil holds possession. " About noon I went up homo , gel .Jlyllie , mid once more went to the haunted house. On my way up towi 1 btopped and ordered four cot buds which I had placed two in the fronl basement and two in the kitchen , Then I made another thorough aearch of the houso. In the cellar I found : window which , though looking secure enough , could by a slight effort bo dis lodged. The door which led into the kitchen from the cellar next aecurei my attention. It closed with a Hprinj , and looked very innocent ; but an in stant uso'a of my penknife discloser the fact that the door , though minus a knob or handle on thu cellar side had a place for a latch key , Hlyly hit by a piece of paper cunningly applied "I think wo have scotched the snake , " I announced to the boys thai evening. "But wo will thorougly tcsi the question before we announce our selves victors. " Wo all slept in the basement thai night the boys in the kitchen , Mol lie and I in the Iront room. All quiet , Next morning I called my force to gcthcr and held a consultation. Said I "Boys and Molliohoro is the case plain as a pike-stuff. Wo want to live in this house , if possible. It is nice convenient and desirable. Mollie you have guessed half the gliost riddle dlo , and boys , you and I must discover the rest , for the part wo have not dis covered is far more dangerous to our comfort here than is the first half My theory is that this house is haunt ed by a person or persons whoso ob ject it is to render the property worthless in the market. Lot us dar ken the house , light the gas and ex periment. " No sooner said than done. Charlie and Ed went to the second lloor , standing in about the same position Charlie and I had boon when wo saw the spectre. I then directed Mollie to place herself where she would re- llected both in the pier glass and in the mirrors which lined the stairway. No sooner had she taken this position when Charlie shouted "Hero's our ghost , Dick , Hiiro as fate ! Hub your forehead , Mollie ! By Jove ! it is she , sure enough ? " I hoard him mutter. "All right ! " I laughed. "Now , E < J , for yours , Go into the back room , leave pnen the door , and stand where you did when shaving , " In a moment Mollie and I wore highly edified by seeing our spirit of the razor , with his thumb at his noio iu a moat unghust-like style , When wo were all gathered in the parlor once morel said : "You see Mollie was rh'ht about the mirrors producing the figures which have frightened so many ; but the brain that designed this means has not'stoppod here. Mr. Johnston assures me that he moro than once saw the spirit of Davis * wife. Wo must discover how that was possible , I am convinced that the unfortunate lady will bo inuko to appear to ua very soon perhaps to-night. If she does wo must bo ready to receive her. Charlie , you ami Ed. slip uuietly into the front basement to sloop , but BOO Unit you sleep lightly. If you hear the collar door open' ' keep quiet ; but after the ghost has passed .up stair secure the door and steal after her. Mollie and I will bo ready to receive her up stairs. Night came ; my programme was followed out to the letter , and to my intense satisfaction the spirit of , Mrs , Davis appeared. I cannot oven now repress a shqd > dor ud I recall tlio figure which stood in the little blue room that night. I confcis my Jiair stood on end then , and my bfopd turned cold. . Jt was the figure of a tall woman ; dressed in white , with a 'ghastly cut across her throat which gapped fearfully w the gaslight of the scintillating little r < x > m I never wish to sec a look moro horrible rible than glowed , in her wild black oyus. Knowing a * T did that the boys had cut oT ( retreat , 1 whispered to Mollie : "Don't bo frightened : it's only a woman masquoiading. " 1 sprang from my bed - the figure did not stir. Of course the real cul- ptit was not in the blue room , but in the parlor , any attempt to seize her on my part would bo useless. 1 rushed into I the hall and nhoutod : "Boys , catch her ! " In thu Hash of an eye the figwv dis appeared | ; but a noise of something far more tangible than nir sounded irom below. The haunter know the luuiso better than wo , and would hn\e es caped us after all if Ed had not sprung down the stairs , stationed himself nt the collar door , and suiwl her just as she 1 came down the servant's atiiitcaso. Chsirloy and 1 were almost init.mtly on the spot , and bravo Mollie wai not far behind. It proved to bo n young and hand some women in short , just \ \ \ \ < > i\\ \ I md suppose-Mrs. Muddon. Beaten at her hideous garni1 , i-v disgraeod , she novel1 foi mio nomi'iit lost , courage. "So , " she suid in broken English , 'so the game is up. You are l > rave nun t wish Maililon was as IIMU 'd not have failed You , madiiin , " to Mollie , "aro the only woman J'vi-si'uii n your country who is not a e.itt.inlly 'ool. " . In the morning wo sent foi 3lr. lohnston and Mr. Madden , Tin-iin- 'orlunato husband crouched nml logged like a Apanicl ; but hi wife iho\\ed no sign of contrition. At first , Mr. Johnston was dutor- ninud to let thu law have its way , but it last consented to lot nmUoi.s drop .ipon Jlr. Maddim's taking n xnlumii vow to leave the country and molest lini no more. In another week nearly o\a\y mir ror had boon taken from the ( muse. Some Were concave , hence the M.-O of the figures. But the greatest discov ery was the rollueting glasses m the ceiling , that wure scarcelyto , bo noon , but which uided much m producing thu illusions which had driven twelve tenants from the house , and reduced it to onu-half its value. < Mr. Johnston was as good r.s his word. For live yuan * 1 lived in his hoiiRu with Mollie and the little onus. Ed. and Charlie live quiet , pi'.ieoful years and Mr. Johnston telU mo that ho still considers himself my debtor , since our discovery not only restored his property to its real value , but his wife to health and his boy to courage. A PilRrimnuo ( o Bothlohom. Tluodoro fit ) cr In N York hvaiiKcli-t Wo set our faces for the pools of Solomon , halting a few moments at the tombstone of Haclmul by the roadside. Thu small structure was crowded with Juws , soiiio of whom wore phylacter ie , and all wore wailing , as they wail beside thu remnant of the temple walls. Ono old woman was weeping and pressing her withered cheek against the tomb with as much dis tress as if thu fair young wife win breathed out her lifo there fort ) cen turies t ago had been her own daughter. Wo found the enormous pools of Solo mon ( the largest of which me.suro ; ! < 580 feet in length ) were about hall tilled with pure water. Wo rodu bu- side the aqueduct that lends frou them , all the way to Bethlehem hem , Down among the bleak and burrun hills wo saw the deep , fertile vale of Urtas , filled will gardens and fruit trees. It is culti vated by the European colony planted by Mr. Mcshnllam. For a half hour wu feasted our eyes with the beauti ful Bethlehem perched m its .lofty . hill and Bin-rounded byolive orchaids. So many now edifices have been erected for convents and other relig ious purposes that Bethloheni lias al ways u modern look. An wo rode through its narrow .streets we Haw no Kuths , but an ancient Jou in turban , long robe and flowing boa.nl , quite answered to my idea of BOOK.No rode to thu convent adjoining the church of the Nativity , where a rather oily lot king monk furnished usun ux- icllcnt lunch. Ilo then took HJ into , he venerable church that covers thu subterranean chamber in which tradi- jon lias alw.iyn held that our blessed Lord wiB born. The chamber is probably a remnant of an ancient ( han once belonging to the family of Jesse and of King David. I expected -o bu shocked by a sham mockery I entered thu church , but a feei ng of gunuinu faith in thu locality came over mo as 1 descended into thu rocky chamber mid read , around thu silver star , thu famous imicription in Latin , "Jleru Jesuu Christ was born of the Virgin Mary. " The thruo-fold argument for thu authenticity of this site is drawn from unbroken tra dition , from thu fact that Bethlehem lias never been overthrown in sieges , itnd from the other fact that thu learned St Jerumu ( in thu fourth century ) wai so sure of the nito that ho came find spent his long , laborious lifo in thu cavurn close by thu birth spot of our Lord. I entered with deep interest thu ravu in which this devout rcholar meditated and prayud and wrought thu Vulgate translation of God's word. My visit to thu church of the Nativity was tenfold more satisfactory than that to the church Of thu Holy Sepulchre in this city.
