PLAYING DEAD MAN-Gabriel Mitchell,
the fellow who jumped his bond and was
afterward arrested by Sergeant Gray, is
something Of a sumner in his way. Soon
after his first arrest he obtained bonds
man and then died, the funeral taking place
at his residence on Marigny street. Several
of his friends took last look at his corpse
and solemnlv followed to the grave. After
that the deceased's trial came up in the
Criminal Court, but Mitchell did not re-
spond; of course dead man can't respond,
and the bordsman would not be allowed to
bring the body into court. although the law
indirectly says he must. the case was quite
forgotten until last Saturday, when Ser
geant Gray was greatly surprised to see the
dead walking around very lively.
1t seems that Gabriel borrowed corpse
for the occasion only, to demonstrate how
easy it is to jump bond, and his trick was
successful up to the time that the sergeant's
keen eyes made discovery.

short distance with the. scythe extend
ing through his body, and then pulled
it out, reeking with blood, unaided.
The lobe of the right lung was severed
and it was not expected that he could
live more than few hours To the
surprise of all, his condition is now
favorable to his recovery, and his at
tending physician, Dr.. A., s. Rauden
bush, OF Alamstown, has expressed the
hope Of being able to save his life.
Meyer has been perfectly conscious
since the occurrence speaks distinctly
and eats and sleeps without difficulty.
He is a small man, 32-years ofage, and
is of rather delicate appearance,
although he must possess superior
constitution to have thus far so well
withstood the result Of his wound His
case is certainly . remarkable one, and
