Preserved by Nature for Eight Years
From the Detroit Post.I


The remains Of the late Henry Il.
Backus, Of Arizona, once very prom
inent citizen of Michigan, who died and
was buried in Arizona eight years ago,
were recently disinterred and brought
back to Detroit by his son, James II.
Backus, and they will be finally buried
in Norwich, Conn. The remains are in
a remarkable state of preservation.
Mr.. Backus died of heart disease and
exhaustion July Is, 1877, and after
eight years his features are almost
recognizable and the body is in solid
condition of preservation. 1t is one
of the most remarkable cases on rec
ord. The remains will be kept few
days at Fairbrother' undertaking es-
tablishment, on Grand River Avenue.
The body was buried in Arizona in a
grave yard OF hot sand, and it is be-
lieved that all other bodies buried
there are in a similar state of preser-
walton.
The deceased was son Of James
Backus, and was born at Norwich,
Conn. He came to Michigan in 1888
and studied law with Gov. VIM.
Woodbridge; whose daughter, the late
Julldna L. DdCKuS, he married D0c0n-
Der z, 1885. He took an active part
in politics. In 1910 he was elected a
member of the state Legislature, and
in 1861 he represented his district in
the state Senate, acting as president
pro tenn. of that body. During 1862
and 1868 hewas lieutenantg governor of
the state. President Lincoln signed
Mr.. Backus' commission as Judge of
the United States court Of Arizona on
the very day of his assassination.
The newly appointed Judge left Detroit
in 1865, and remained in Arizona four
years, after which time he returned to
Detroit and resumed the practice of
law. Having large business interests
in Arizona, he returned to the terrific
~ in 1877 and died there a few weeks
later. He will be remembered by
many citizens of Detroit.

1t Was Good, Anyway.
from the Boston Courier. I

From the Boston Courier.]
In a town on Cape Codlives a French
family, of which the head was once an
officer in the Belgian army, where he
seems to have acquired strange tastes.
He is somewhat given to experiments
in cookery, and frequently concocts
dishes which are the establishment of
his neighbors. He recently decided to
take to himself a. help-meet, and fixed
upon a pretty Irish girl in the vicinity
as his sweetheart. His knowledge of
English, however, was so imperfect
that he was forced to call in a music
teacher to act as interpreter. Going
to the Frenchman's house the music
teacher found great difficulty in
conducting negotiations, owing to
the continual interference of an
old Irishwoman, who kept demand
ing what she was there for.
"What are you here yourself
for?" demanded the interpreter at
length, losing patience. "Och, hone! !"
cried the other, can is it what Pm
here for, bad luck to the day! Didn't
