A Strange Birfhmark.

A curious story comes from Salt Lake
City which is attracting much comment
from friends and acquaintance of
Policeman Charles F. Wanless, shot and
killed by Joseph A. Barnes, Sept. 1S,
1890, and may furnish medical men
another subject for discussion. Barnes
was having quarrel with his wife.
which the officer attempted to stop.
Barnes fred, and the bullet passed
through Wanless' heart, leaving a jag
ged bullet hole in the breast.
A married sister Of the dead officer
was telegraphed and came to the funer-
al from her home in Salt Lake. She
was much affected by the tragedy, and
took the loss of her brother to heart. In
a short time she returned home. About
three months ago, as the report is heard
here by friends Of the dead officer, his
sister gave birth to a boy perfectly
formed, but with red birthmark, over
