Broadway tOGANSPROT GHOULS. A Strange Story IVliIch to Light After Sixteen HobtKHl the The Delphi Journal tells the follow, ing strange story which implicates Logansport in a serious manner. The Journal says: "Generally the mysteries told by old and abandoned cemeteries are those written on the head stones. And it is sometimes difficult to decipher these, as time with its wind and rain, its moss and creeping vines obliterate much that the stranger, led by curiosity, would fain make substance of his knowledge. But.it is better thus than as" David A.

Stoner' found it last Wednesday when he came to Delphi from the'Soldiers'' Home, at Marion, on a mission tender and sorrowful. He came to remove from their graves in the old cemetery the hones of those near and dear to him, of his Stoner, and Harriett, his wife, who died in 1875, and of his son and Mary Stoner, his sister-in-law, who died in 1862. The bones of the two who died in 1S62 were in a perfect state of preservation, the coil of the woman's hair being as perfect as the day she was buried, nearly a quarter of a century when the bottom of. the graves in which' were laid at rest the todies of the wife and-elder son was reached, there was no sign whatever that anyone had ever.been buried there. To make doubly sure; Henry Duker and Jacob Stoner, who did the digging, went -carefully" over the clay with their hands, and no trace of the bones of any one; could be In the bottom of one of the graves were the decayed parts of a sign that had been lettered in gold leaf, the only letters adjoined that could be distinguished being -T Mr.

Stoner will accept no other solution of the mystery than that the graves were robbed, and indeed there appears no other way of explaining the matter. The bodies were buried in black walnut caskets. Both of those whoso bodies are missing died in Logansport, and'were brought here for interment. Mr. Stoner's theory is that 1 they were followed here from Logansport and taken up by ghouls, from that city, but of courss this is merely speculation on his part.

Mr. Stoner is well known to the people of this community having lived here for many 'years. For twelve years he was in the employ of E. W. Hubbard and it was '-his.

attachment for Delphi and her -people' that led him to return the bodies of his family to this place for interment. The bones of the two who died in 1862 were deposited in the cemetery at Pittsburg. The places prepared' fer the bones of John Stoner and Harriett Stoner were-left -vacant, so to remain'forever. Probably not until the last day will it be known who it was who laid profane: hands upon, the sacred dust of the dead. The removal'of other bodies from this old cemetery will be watched with no small degree of interest.

He Arrived on Time. Reminiscenses of the late P. T. Barn urn are being raked up on all sides. The following story of his lecture tour through this and other States in I860 is told in his autobiography: He had an engagement on one occa sion to lecture at'Fort Wayne, but ha missed the train 'from Clevelan thither.

He went to the superintend ent-of the Toledo Wabash. road for special train. Barnum said to th superintendent. "I will give two hundred dollar and even more, if you say so. to put'into Fort Wayne before 8 o'clock to-night; and really'I hope you wil accommodate me.

1 "The superintendent looked thoroughly over in half a minute, and I fancied he had come to the conclusion that I was a burglar, a counter feiter, or something worse fleeing from justice. My surmise was confirmed when, he slowly remarked: 'Your business must be verj -It is, I replied. am Barnum, the museum man, and am engaged to speak in Fort Wayne "He evidently' did not catch the whole of my response, for he immediately said: 'Oh, it is'a eh? Where is old Barnum himself 'I am I replied, 'andIt ls-a lecture which I advertised to give -to-night; would not disappoint the people for 'Is this P.
