Sounds from the dead room" in the
morgue at midnight struck terror to the
hearts Of Attendant Draude, Undertaken
Scheuerman and two reporters the other
night, says the Rochester On. " Post
Express Gutteral groans were followed
by the rumbling sound Of the dead car
rfage being wheeled across the bare floor.
The dead room door was locked. The
startled listeners knew that the body of
Thomas Pew, with throat cut from ear
to ear, had been lying on the slab In that
room at SHUTDOWN.
Across the hall ten feet in width is the
general Office of Undertaken Scheuerman,
fitted up with desks, chairs, tables and
two iron safes. Out of the main office
is the private Office of the coroners. In
the office two of the men were seated.
The others were in the larger office.
Suddenly from across the hallway came
noise as of some one stirring uneasily
on bed. Every man stopped talking.
The unmistakable sound of the wheels
of the dead carriage rolling across the
bare floor was followed by an unearthly
choking. Horror-stricken, the listeners
started to their feet. More than one face
was pale.

tendant Draude, hoarsely.
Before any one could reply the sounds
began again. a,Ii
I'm going to get out of this" whis-
pered somebody, and bolted through the
office door, out into the street.
Nobody started toward the dead room
door. Attendant Draude was sure it was
locked. While they waited something fell
with clatter on the boards of the I'M
earpeted floor Within. Then came good
English profanity
Color came back into the faces of the
men and they began to breathe naturally
A dash was made for the door. 1t was
Jerked open. There on the wheeled car
rage lay the body ofHthe dead man. The
carriage had been rolled into another
corner of the room. An overturned couch
rested against the wall under the win
dow, and on the floor before 1t was a
man struggling to equilibrium, rubbing
his eyes and staring across the gloomy
apartment with the gaze Of maniac.
LANDS that were not gentle raised him to
