BACK FROM THE GRAVE.
A Man Supposed To Be Dead and Buried, Re-
appears-A Singular Story.

TOLEDO, o., Sept 19.-The Commercial Tele-
gram this morning publishes singular story
which, in substance, is that thirteen years ago
Thomas Hubbell, farmer residing in Monclova
township, this county, was supposed to have
died, and was buried. A few years ago his
friends received letter. signed in the dead
mans name, saying that he was alive and would
visit them. Recently a second letter
of the same character was received This
&used an examination of the grave to
be made. and the casket was found to be empty.
The explanation of the mystery is said to be that
the grave was robbed and the body sent to
medical college III Michigan; that il was then
discovered that the man was not dead but. his
mind being affected by disease, he could give no
information concerning his friends, and was
placed in asylum. where he subsequently re-
covered brother of the resurrected man has
gone to Michigan to investigate the matter The
widow of HLbbell married again seven years
ago. The case has excited great interest in the
locality of his former home.
The Blade. this afternoon gives the details of
interview with some of the relatives of
Thomas Hubbell. They place no credence in
the story that letters have been received from
him. or that he is alive. They state that Mr.
Hubbell died of pneumonia, and that four DAYS
elapsed before burial took place. The grave has
been opened and the remains have not been
found but, with this exception, the story is pro-
nounced without foundation in fact

Rev, DIR. LEONARD, the Prohibition candi-
GATE for Governor of Ohio, made a speech in
Springfield on Friday night in which he said:
81 am going to 60 on my way preaching this
gospel of prohibition, and expect to live in
the State of Ohio when there is not saloon
IN it." There can certainly be no objection
to the good Doctor going ahead and preaching
the gospel of prohibition with all his great
ability and zeal; but it will add nothing to
the effect of his propaganda to make such
extravagant and dishonest statements as the
above. In all good conscience Dr. Leon
ard does not "expect to live in
the State of Ohio when there is not saloon
in it," He may earnestly desire such time
to arrive and so may very many hundreds
and thousands of other good people; but not
one of them, if they have sound minds in
sound bodies, and if they have attained the
age of Dr. Leonard, expects to live in the
State of Ohio when there is not saloon in
it," If DR.. Leonard's prohibitory law were
passed, such state of things would not be
brought about. It is not the case in the State
of Maine, where there has been prohibitory
law for thirty years, and where public
sentiment on the question is much further
advanced than it is in the State of Ohio Dr.
Leonard may possibly live to see prohibitory
law passed in the State--but we seriously
doubt that, for the thought of the country is
rapidly turning away from the illusion of the
prohibition" Dr. Leonard advocates, to some
thing more reasonable, just and practicable in
the regulation of the liquor trafic-.but he
cannot nationally indulge the expectation he
announces. Such infamed and exaggerated
statements do absolute harm to any cause
when INDUCED in by its advocates. This is
not the only incident in the pending contro-
versy that goes to show that DR.. Leonard's
Judgment has been lost in his Incorporate
zeal and bigotry.

DR.. FERRIS the editor of the Christian In
telligencer, takes the trouble to announce that
he will arraign DIR. Talmage and the trustees
of the Brooklyn Tabernacle for an infraction
of the Sabbath, and the good Doctor himself
for violation Of the truth because of mis-
representations regarding the reports of his
sermons preached while in Europe. The Of
Tense seems to be that DR.. Talmage travelled
ut least \ part of one Sunday in reaching his
home. as did also the trustees and others, who
went down the bay to welcome their returning
pastor. AS to the sermons, it is alleged that DIR.
Talmage's agent advertised them as having been
"eabled, while, in fact, the copy of the dis
courses was put in his hands before the Doctor
left this country on his vacation trip
If the lntelligencer man is serious in his
proposal to hold DR.. Talmage and his trustees
to the strict letter of the law in these mat
tiers, the trial. should one be held, will be
full of peculiar interest AS in cases of MUIR
der the most successful defense is usually
some form of mania, it will be perfectly easy
for DR.. Talmage and his trustees to plead
successfully a moral constitution that lifts
them out of all ordinary responsibility. 1t
cannot be possible that DR.. Ferris imagines
that he can get any sort of body of men.

SINCE the women of the Roman Catholic
faith in Boston have at the command of their
priests, begun to register, in order that they
may vote at the coming election for school
trustees, the women of other religious demon
nations are taking more interest in their
political privileges than ever before Lucy
Stone, one OF the leaders in the equal suffrage
movement, expresses herself as being pleased
at the movement, any cause which will rouse
Che minds of women to sense of their rights
being, in her opinion, godsend. To others
less enthusiastic than the veteran suffragist, it
may seem better that there should be no in
terest at all rather than TO have it aroused on
sectarian grounds. Politics, as now practiced,
may be corrupt, but is not likely to be i'm
proved by being mixed with religion, accord
ing to the plan of feminine Boston.

BOYS IN THE WAR.

Some of the Youngest Heroes of the
Late UnpIeasantness from Wisconsin
Some discussion has recently arisen
among the veterans of the. civil war in
regard to the youngest soldier engaged
in that struggle. Already a number
nave laid claim to that dislinc-
ton, but after much controversy The
claim is still unsettled.
The quota of young soldiers from this
state" said Colonel Watrous, in speaking
of the much-mooted question, "was pro-
portlonately equal to any other state.
In fact, | think it was even greater,
There were number of boys between IA
and 16 years old who entered the priya-
tions o. soldiers life and fought for the
honor of the old flag. And the young
soldiers fought well, too. think a regi-
ment of young fellows ranging from 16
to 20 years old could do better service
than the same number of older men,
because they would be better able to
endure hardships, and soldiers at that
age are as tough as young pine knots"
Among the Wisconsin claimants for
the credit of being the youngest soldiers
in the late war is Watts w. Hubbard,
who enlisted at the age of Is years and 8
months, in Company A. Third Wisconsin
Cavalry regiment. Mr.. Hubbard served
two years and was honorahly discharged
The Eastern veterans seem inclined to
award the palm of distinction to Penn
sylvania man, who was at the time of
his enlistment, Is years old, rs pounds in
weight, and feet inches high. This
record, however, is eclipsed by Wiscon-
sin man in the person Of John A. Mich
OILS, Of Madison, who was drummer in
the band of the Eleventh Wisconsin In
fantry. Mr.. Nichols WAS IA years old
when he enlisted, weighing 65 pounds,
and was just 4 feet high.
"There is Michigan man who goes
ahead of all records l know Of" said
Colonel Watrous, yesterday: "His name
is 9. w. Mott, and he enlisted as a regL-
lar soldier when IL years old, in Mich
igan military regiment. There were
number OF drummer boys under IA years
old, and [ did hear OF a drummer but
10 years of age. Those little fellows
were bound to go to the war and many
of them stole away from their homes in
order to follow their older acquaintances
to the field. .''-MiLU0ukee Sentinel.
