GHOSTLY POWER ON TROLLEY
Free Blah Performnnro of Jersey
Car with Trolley Trro
Feet Off.
A haunted trolley rrr Is the latest sensa
tion out at East Rutherford, N. J.
The cur. which Is one of a well known
half-doren that daily run through F.ast
Rutherford, over the tracks of the Newark
and Hackensack line, was always consid
ered perfectly normal until Friday. Just
what la the matter with It now, no one
seems able to determine.
The car (No. 47, for purposes of Identifi
cation) had bton run In from Hackensack
to the car barns at East Rutherford and
was left standing on a siding while the
motorman and conductor went Into the
barn to Ket their midday meal. Before go
Irg the motorman had taken the precau
tion to remove the controller, and the con
ductor had pulled the trolley two feet
down from the, overhead wire and tied It.
Whlie the car was standing all by Itsolf,
employes eating In the car barns noticed a
peculiar electric disturbance In the air,
and could also hesr a strange sound, half
moan, half hoot, unlike any sound they
had ever heard before. One man wanted
to go out and Investigate, hut his com
panions laughed at him and told him the
sound was merely the ordinary noise of a
trolley spool on a wire. Probably the spool
was stiff, they said.
Just then a hatless man dashed to the
door and cried that the car that had been
standing outside was moving away on Its
own account, with Its trolley pole two feet
short of the wire. The laughing men left
their food and hurried out In time .to see
the car rapidly disappearing.
Although the car's trolley pole was 'way
short of the wire. It was spitting a shower
of blue sparks. Some of the men declare
positively that distinct sulphurous Smell
filled the air. .
The car was away two, hours. In that
time It was seen by hundreds of persons.
There was no one on either of Its platforms,
no one waa Inside It. It ran the entire
length of the trip to Haokensack, doubled
the loop there, and came back to the East
Faulherford barn, where It started. Then
It stopped of Its own accord.
One man who followed It In an automo
bile declares the car Invarlahly slowed
down when In danger of overtaking a car
ahead. Since none of the persons who met
It knew anything about trolley cars, no
one dared hoard It.
Expert electricians who examined the car
after Its 'return to the barn were unable to
find anything wrong with U. Ths whole
occurrence la .profound mystery. New

Oldest Member of Police Force Telia
How tha Marshal Stack
Htm.
Sergeant Whelan enjoys the distinction
of being ths oldest man on the Omaha po
lice fores. He went on ths fores In IMS.
"At thst time," said the sergeant, "the
force consisted of fifteen men. There vers
no csptslns or sergeants. There was no
chief, but the head of the fores 'was called
the marshal. There was one roundsman,
whose duties were similar to those of
sergeant today. There was no patrol wagon
In those days. Each officer had to fur
nish his own club and star, and some of
them made their clubs to save tha ex
pense of buying one. I whittled out
good one from piece of sapling and have
that old club at home yet. Intend to keep
It, and when I leave this vale of tears I
will pass tt down to posterity as sort
of family coat of arms.
"There Is no ons on the police fores now
who was there when I first want on and
mighty few of ths old boys or city offi
cials of thst time are on earth. I remem-,
ber the day I took my club In hand, pinned
on my star and sallied forth to aw the
wicked. The marshal called ms into his
office and warned me against ever taking
drink while on duty. .lie said he was
going to be very strict In ths matter of
permitting ths patrolmen to drink even
moderately whlla on duty and that they
mustn't drink much while off duty. X as
sured him that I would give him no trouble
In that way. Boon afterward I met htm on
the street one day. He approached me
with very serious countenance and said,
"Whelan, I'm going to bo very strict In
the matter of drinking, but I want you
to understand that tf you should meet an
old friend on tha street, for whom you
wished to buy drink snd take one your
self, I'm not going to bs foolish about It,
providing you use good Judgment. In rase
you desire to avail yourself of that privi
lege right now, why I'll give permission
to leave your beat for little while.' Of
course, tt was up to ms to buy and I did."

Somebody will want to buy what you want

UNANIMOUS FOR MR.COMPERS
President of Labor Federation Re
Elected Without Dissenting Voice.
ALL HIS ACTIONS ARE ENDORSED
Herniation neaaralao- Mr. Taft'e Can
dldaey Is Referred A saewa seen t

NORFOLK. Va., Nov. 14. The American
Federation of Labor, endorsing tho every
act of word and pen of Its president, Sam
uel Oompers, and rebuking with all the
force at the command of the English lan
guage tho who have sought to matlgn his
personal character or official conduct, this
afternoon unanimously re-elected Mr.
Oompers to office for another term. The
scene which followed the election was one
of great enthusiasm and Mr. Gompers,
when he came forth to deliver his speech
of acceptance, was received with another
great outburst of applause. Victor L.
Berger of Milwaukee, the socialist leader
who at many previous conventions opposed
Mr. Gompers and who came to this conven
tion with the same announced Intention,
was the one who tnoved to make President
Gompers' re-election unanimous.
Other officers of the federation were
elected as follows;
Vice presidents, James Duncan. Qulncy,
Mass.; John Mitchell, Indianapolis, Ind.;
James O'Connell, Washington, D. C: D. A.
Hayes, Philadelphia; Daniel J. Keefet. De
troit; William I). Huber, Indlsnanolls; Jos
eph F. Valentine, Cincinnati. Treasurer,
John B. Lennnn, Bloomlngton, III. Secre
tary, Frank Morrison, Washington, D. C.
Andrew Furusoth of San Francisco, Cal.,
representing the Seamens' union, and James
J. Creamer of Richmond. Va., representlnn
tho International Machinists, were elected
fraternal delegates to the British Trsdes
and Labor congress, which meets In Sep
tember next.
Honor to Oompers Deferred.
A movement was started to have Presi
dent Gompers named aa special delegate
to the British and German Trades con
gresses, but Mr. Gompers said, next year
being a presidential year, his absence from
the United States even for a short time
during the 1908 campaign might be sought
by enemies of labor to be made a matter
of "great significance," and he said he
would prefer to wait until 1909, when. If It
was the pleasure of the convention, he
would be glad to go to England and Ger
many. Denver was selected as the con
vention city In 1908.
A resolution waa Introduced today declar
ing Secretary of War Taft to be one of
the federal Judges who had scattered the
granting of Injunctions broadcast over the
country. Tho resolution was referred to
Mr. Gompers, with the request that the
(iuestlon of opposing the nomination of
Mr. Taft for the presidency be agitated In
the American Federatlonlst. tho official
organ of the Federation of Labor.
The committee did not reject the resolu
tion, but It did not consider the convention
the place to handle the subject, so it was
decided that It would be well to leave It to
President . Gompers, whose sentiments on
this subject are well known.

IOWA HAS AJBOY WONDER
Mental Attainments nt tho Aw of
'lne Amase Friends nasi
Teachers.
To be nine years old and In a class In
the public school with boys twice his age,
and foot ball giants, snd yet lead that
class In hla studies. Is ths unlqus record
of Utile Malcolm Hasklns Dowell. son of
Mr. and Mrs. Oeorge Dowell, in Wash
ington, la. This "brainy boy" has prac
tically stepped from babyhood without any
educational training Into next to the high
est grade In ths Washington publlo schools.
Held bark by serious Illness, ha has Dot
had an entire year of school work.
He Is the grandson ot Mr. and Mrs. J.
G. Haskins of Des Moines, who havs
watched hla wonderful mental develop
ment with pride. At years of age ho
delighted to read to his grandmother whlla
she held ths book. He slid glibly over
the longest words In the book and no
biblical common name was beyond hla
powers of pronunciation. He would listen
to stories read aloud at b years of ago
and then repeat them almost verbatim.
Shut out from sports that would delight
other boys tor the past four years, under
going a severe sirglcal operation last year
and racked with pain most of the time, tha
boy pursued his school work at home
against the wishes of his parents. When
the time came this fall for him to enter
school for the first time In year, the hoy
Jumped from one grade to another by hla
qualifications, until It was found that ho
was ready for the seventh grade, thing
unheard of among normal children. Ho
can recite for both classes. While h
studies hi arithmetic for his next lesson,
he can listen to tha recitation of tha next
class and know the context of tha book (
well as the upper pupil reciting. Thla re
markable feat waa discovered last week,
when the boy recited the story under con.
stderatlon by the other bias In Its entirety
and yet showed full set of figures, com
pletely and accurately Solved.
Musio ts as natural gift as his mem
ory. This, has been demonstrated many
times. Perfectly conversant with tht
strings of the piano, violin and mandolin,
he can produce the same mualo on eaoh
Instrument a few minutes sfter It haa
been played on another Instrument. Rag
time has no more the terrors for this re
markable child In digital dexterity on
these Instruments than sny two-four exer
cise, supposed to he the best score for
children of that age. .
He can Imitate any chords or groups of
chorda with equal ability on the Instru
ments without a flaw or slur on nit.
His mental perception formualo tone la
absolutely accurate and no combination ot
notes confuses him.'
While the child has a mind of wonder
ful brilliance lie la In no way abnormal.
His body has kept pace with the average
age of child of 9 years. His future wilt
be watched with much Interest by ttidentn.
At recent medical examination lis was
found to bs In normal condition, but with
brain unusually acuta. A broths was
graduated from the West high school In
Des Moines last year and Is now a student
of law In the Northwestern University. If
the boy's health continues he will be In tho
high school at 10 years, a graduate at 14
and lawyer wjth shingle from ths
Northwestern University several : year
ahead of any of his compatriots In ths
profession. Des Moines Register and
