Old "Friday" Found Frozen.
A MISER'S HOME.
NO FIRE, NO FOOD, No CLOTHING.
FOR COMFORTS WITH A PoCk-
EFT FULL OF MONEY.

Everybody in the neighborhood of Forest Hill
knows old Friday as he is called. For many
years he has lived alone, on his small farm near
Forest Hill, on the road leading to Cark's Bridge.
He has occasionally made attempts at farming,
but probably never raised more than he could
eat lie would sometimes sell q few apples wal
nuts or chestnuts, but seldom bought anything.
He is called "od Friday" but he is scarceiy
more than 30 years of age: His real name is said
as being very rich, and his uucanny, filthy APP
pearance made him an object of dread to chill
dren and disgust to grown people.
On Wednesday neighbor, Mr.. LLOYD Martin
went to his house and found him almost frozen
to death. The scene was deplorable one Old
Friday lay on pile of corn fodder. with an old
ragged coverlet drawn over him. There was not
a chair, stove or an article of furniture of any
kind in the house. The rain and melted snow
had leaked through the roof and the floor and
rude couch were saturated with water The
mans feet were wrapped up in old rags tied
around with pieces of rope, and on one hand he
had an old woOlen glove.
He was unable to move eXcept on his knees
and one hand, both feet and one hand being fro
zen.
It is believed that he has subslsted for soma
time past on dry corn meal and apples as n small
quantity OF meal and some frozen apples We're
the only articles of food found in the house
Mr.. Martin went hastily for Dr. Frank p. Smith
son and then carried bed, food and clothing to
Friday, making him as comfortable as possible.
Or. Smlthson, upon removing the covering,
found the man s feet and hands in horrible con-
dltion The flesh was sloughing from the bones.
The physician dressed the parts and thinks both

Reelection Of Senator German.

The Legislature, on Tuesday, voted for u
S. Senator Hon. Arthur p German receiv.
ed 81 votes in the Senate and 70 10 the House
Hon. Louis E. McComas, Republican, re-
ceivcd votes in the Senate and 10 in the
House Mr.. German received every Demo-
cratic vote except that of Mr.. Armstrong, of
Washington. who was absent.
The unanimity with which Mr.. German
has been reelected to the United States
Senate by the Democrats is a just recogni-
ton of his faithful and arduous services in
behalf of the Democratic party in the late
Presidential campaign. TWAS owing entirely,
we believe, TO his consummate leadership and
foresight that the vote of New York was
fairly counted and returned Amidst all the
excitement of that trying period Senator
German was one of the few Democrats who
did not lose his head. Orders had been given
to 'claim everything" and it was known to
him that dispatch had been prepared for
publication by the Associated Press declar.
ing Blaine elected. Mr.. Germans tirmness
and determination alone prevented its publ
cation and probably avertcd a terrible riot in
New York
No Democrat should begrudge Senator
German the honor to which his abilities and
party services have fairly entitled him.
