A Modern Samson.

Cherokee county, Ala, has a muscular
prodigy. His name is Joe CLANCY, and
he weighs only 100 pounds. He was or
rested recently and incarcerated in the
Jail at Centre charged with burglarizing
a store at Leesburg, Ala. AS soon as
they put him in Jail he broke the door
open and came out. They then chained
him supposedly fast to the floor, and
powerful chain was locked close about
his neck and fastened to the floor, but
before the jailer could arise to survey the
job the prisoner had bursted the chains
asunder and stood erect also. Some of
his feats of skill and strength are burst
ing dungeon locks, pulling chains apart,
drawing iron spikes from the walls and
breaking bars. 1t is said he can break
the bars of the dungeon windows as
easily as if they were toothpicks and can
pull heavy chain in twain with the
ease that an ordinary man can silken

brought to light at the general postoffice.
Some alterations are being made in the

copy of the Wakefield Journal for

the old red penny stamp. The paper

chance had got into the hiding place

the addressee has been found after the

PARIS, GIGANTIC HOAX.


=
Story Exploded
A gigantic hoax with the longest run
on record is at last exposed In the Paria
papers. In 1890 an advertisement sp-
peared stating that deceased Russian
princess left million francs to be given
to the person who would remain one
year and day in the little chapel over
her tomb in Pere la Chaise and watch
her body, which was in q glass coffin.
This watcher should see nobody during
the time he or she remained IN the chapel
and should not even speak othe servant
that would be employed to supply tho
refreshments. Candidates were politely
requested to communicate with the SUI
perintendent of the cemetery.
The unfortunate functionary soon
found himself deluged with letters from
fools in all parts of the world, including
one journalist belonging to news
agency of Chicago, who declared himself
ready to take the job, as ID seemed far
preferable to the "killing work Of q
newsgatherer" Paragraphs began to
appear in the papers stating that several
intrepid watchers had already abandoned
the task on account Of the uneasiness of
the dead princess. In other words, she
had disagreeable habit of getting out
of her glass coffin and walking about in
her shroud. Then the wag of wags raised
the ante. Five million was the sum next
offered through the press. Letters poured
with increased volume upon the unfor-
tunate superintendent. some Of them
from women. Nearly every town In the
United States and Canada was ably rep
resented among the many men Of letters
who contributed to this wondrous pile.
1t is almost too bad to clip the wings
of a canvasback canard that flew SO long
and so far. But it has turned out, just
in time to save the superintendent of
Pere la Chaise from going crazy, that
the Russian princess, the little glass cof-
fin and the generous bequest never ex-
listed, and that the tomb which was sup
posed to contain her interesting and rest
less remains really belongs to French
family named De Beaujour. Paris Cor
