MYSTERY OF A HUMAN HAND.

It Il Foand on the Streets Of Chicago and
Turned Over tn the Police.
CHICAGO. Oct S.-Luigi Senese walked
into the Harrison Street station and placed
a human hand on the desk before Sergeant
Hogan IT looked as if il might have been
severci from a body but a short time II
was evidently the hand Of a woman. The
italian said he found it on Sherman street
He lives at aos Sherman street He told .
straightforward story. and after the police
had aseertained that he did not give .
wrong address they allowed him to go.
Detectives Fitzgerald and Spieeel were
put TO work on the mystery and two other
officers were detailed to assist. Inspector
Fitzpatrick and Lieutenant Shepherd
think il possible that a murder was COM
mitted and that the murierers cut the
body up in order TO distribute parts of it
in different places and that the perpetrat-
ors dropped the hand on the street. No
bodies We're brought to the morgue with a
hand missing.

The Cowboy .n., the Folding Bed.

A cowboy up from the Texas panhan-
die was a guest at the house. and as
the clerk who attended TO him is still in
Denver we will allow him to tell the
story in his own way: He hid on
store clothes and a red necktie, and
what he didn't know wasn't worth
knowing When he started up to his
room at night, l told him there was a
folding bed in it, and. if he wished, the
bellboy would show him how it worked
But not much. He didn't want to be
shown anything. He knew a thing or
two about the city. he did. even if he
did live down On the range.
$50 / let him so. and next morning
he paid his bill without a word and
went away. About noon / happened to
be on that floor, and a charlbermaid
called NE 10 take a lock in his room
And what a sight met my eyes! The
bottom drawer of the bureau was pulled
out as far as il would come. and in it
were ali the rugs in the room, with a
towel spread over one end for pillow.
Evidently he had tried TO sleep there,
for pinned upon the glass was a sarcas-
tic legend reading: Col dern yore fold

Gallant Dave Hill.

Senator David Bennett Hill has
formally accepted the gubernatorial
nomination on the democratic ticket
in New York state. This was done
Saturday when Daniel n. Lockwood
expressed his desire to remain on the
ticket with the senator, and Supreme
Court Justice Charles F. Brown, of
Newbur-. was chosen by the state
committee to fill the vacancy caused
by Justice Gaynor's declination to
run a. the candidate for judge of the
court Of appeals. Thus the demo-
cratic state ticket has been made
complete, and this week one Of the
most aggressive campaigns in the
history Of New York will be begun
for its election.
Senator Hill in accepting the nom
ination spoke these gallant words:
While keenly approaching the
high honor conferred in being NOM
mated for third time by nv party
for SO important position. yet can
but feel that personally have every
thing 20 lose and nothing to gain By
the consent TO which you summon
me. The gubernatorial Office has no
longer any attractions for me and
personally ! preferred to remain in
the senate. where the duties were
gradually becoming more congenial
to my tastes and where ] believed
could more accePtably serve the in
terests of this state.
but personal considerations must
have no weight where public duty is
concerned. The democratic party.
especially in this state. is
confronted with q great crisis,

existence rs n political organiza.

tional differences but to secure some
candidate. wholly acceptable to every
one. to assume my place in this great
struggle. in whose favor l would
gladly retire. This has not proved
feasible. and, recollecting that the
democratic party of this state has
honored me in the past when l solic-
tied its favors. in the days of its sun
shine and prosperity. can not desert

wrry told that Judge Gavpor b,l
