story of SavaIin was told by Talley-

DEAD AT POKER TABLE.
Man Sat Down as Spectator-His
Death Not Known for Two Hours.

Chicago. Nov. 27.-Last night a dead
man sat in a game of cards for two
hours in the saloon of James F. He'd
rich at Eighth and Locust streets in
Quincy.
He had taken a seat as a spectator
between two of the players, and while
the cards were circling about the table
he was dealt the cold hand of death.
His head sank forward on his chest and
he seemed to be doing. Once the corpse
swayed against one of the players, who
pushed it back to an upright posture,
with the remark:
Brace up, comrade, and have a look
at the game
The man was Fred w Reinke. aged
a. a veteran of the Soldiers home. AS
he sat at the table with his white head
bowed his companions thought that he
was sleeping.
Two hours after he had taken a seat
at the table one of the card players at

unusually good hand of cards.

the card player.
The player pushed back Reinke's head
and held the cards before his face The
open, vacant, staring eyes of a corpse
were revealed to the men about the
table They pushed back their chairs

the good hand. Hes dead"
Chairs were overturned, the cards
were scattered upon the floor and the
corpse sank forward against the table.

Washington. Nov. 27.-The slightest move

Germany were to send a ship into any of

1t is impossible to say whether the de-
