Some features of tlie affair how ever were mysterious, aud many made up their minds before they ieft that the house was haunted. For the ghosts were there, solemn, silent ghosts, all shrouded in white like Hamlet’s father, moaning and groaning and gibbering in ghouldisli glee. In fact the ghosts had every thing to themselves at first and it was not until they had ceased to prowl that tho ladies took down their heels from the chair rounds aud the men ceased from trembling. After the weird work of tlie spirits was finished came tlie games. The secret society game was perhaps the most interesting, and one in cident came near causing a stampede among those marvelous creatures— 1 he ghosts. The ladies had separated them selves aud were closeted in a dark ened room, was called in. He was blindfolded aud took his seat in tho silent place with fear and trembling. Every thing was still and not a sound, save the beating of the president’s excited heart, could be discerned. Suddenly a piiir of soft, sweet lips pressed themselves on iris rugged face and tlie faint echo of a kiss rang about the room. Everybody expected Mr. Chappell to tear off the blind and jump up. Not lie! Oh! no, lie 8'j.t there and smiled complacently and smacked liis lips. “Do it again,” he said puck ering up his mouth iu an inviting way.
