verting the State into Radical strong

did not change a vote but they revived
party-feeling sufficiently to dwarf per-

Alive IN her Coffin.
BREATHING AND MOVING WHEN ABOUT
TO BE TAKEN TO THE GRAVE.

A sensation occurred last Saturday
at Bellpre, w. Va. The day previous
Sarah Druse died suddenly from dropsy
of the heart. A few minutes before
her death she had prepared dinner for
the family and while engaged in the
dining room Immediately after dinner
dropped lifeless to the floor. The
body received the usual preparation
and was placed in a coffin. During
the evening friends of the family were
present and remained during the night
with the corpse. Monday as the
last sad rites were about to be perform.
ed, the corpse began to breathe and
move very perceptibly, turning on its
side. The pulse was found to be good
and strong. AT the first sight of re-
newed life every one was dumbfound
ed. Women screamed and the men
stood stiff with fright, looking at the
ghastly spectacle. As soon as the
family and friends recovered from the
fright medical aid was summoned.
Owing probably to delay in obtaining
physicians. Mrs. Druse, after an hour,
became motionless again, but still at
times showed some slight signs of life.
The medical fraternity is greatly puz-
zled over the case and the body will be
held until Monday. The results are
watched with great interest by every
one,
