MODERN ENoCH ARDEN.
\ Man Supposed TO be Dead Suddenly
Turns Up.

A special dispatch from Griffin, Ga,
to the Atlanta Journal says: "That
truth is stranger than fiction has
been most forcibly demonstrated by a
strange incident that has created
great excitement in this city. Jack
Reid, belonging to one Of the best
families in Georgia and before The
war one of the most wealthy, turned
up In Grillln Wednesday night, after
having supposedly been dead twenty
years. His case outrivals Rip Van
Wrinkle in human interest and pathos.
When a young man Reid was married
to one Of the fairest daughters Of the
state, but they separated and Reid
went west over thirty years ago.
About twenty years since Il dis
patch came to his relatives here that
he had been killed In fight in Texas
and his supposed remains were
brought to Griffin and inferred in the
family burial ground. 1t is said that
the casket was opened and the body
identified as that Of Jack Reid. His
relatives mourned his demise and
second wife came an1 wcpt over. his
bier. Wednesday night the police
found a strange man On the streets,
evidently trying to locate scenes or
long years ago. When asked his
name he replied that he was Jack
Reid. When the story was circulated
over the city Thursday it created a
sensation the like OF which Griffin has
never known and many refused to
| believe the mans statements
Friends OF his boyhOod hunted him
up and used every cunning question
to cntrap the man and prove him to
be q fake, but their efforts were futile,
and all are forced to admit the truth
fulncss Of his assertion that he is the
Jack Reid and the body resting in the
city cemetery is that Of an unknown
man. Reid claims to have been ly-
ing In Central and South America for
many years past and accumulated and
lost Il large fortune. He left Liema,
Peru, nine weeks ago and reached his
old home Wednesday night. He has
q sister living in Griffin. Mrs. Charles
G.. Mills, but She is away for the sum
mcr and Reid says lie will not be here
but a few days and does not know
whether he will get to see her or not.
When asked about the fraud perpc.
tratcd upon his relatives in sending
the remains OF another, pretending
they we're his, he replied that he knew
OF the circumstances, but would not
give his reason for allowing the de-
cepti0n."

Dangcrin.s,o,iu Isottles.

|. DO you Know that the siphon bottle
ordinarily used for yichy, soda water
and other elferyeScent drinks is usually
charged with It pressure OF from l2O TO
l6O pounds to the square inch? The
danger likely to result from an explo-
sion Of one OF these little household
articles is by no means inconside erablc,
and yet the average person handles
u SiphOn as though it were the most
harmful thing in the world. There
are two or three things TO- remember
in handling siphones. Never keep
your siphoneS near the range, for The
unusual heat is more likely than
anything else 10 cause an explosion.
DON'T subject the BOTTLES 10 any
sudden change OF temperature
Whatever. For instance, if you keep
your SiphOns III the ice boX-and
that is The best and safest. place for
llem-don't :. grasp the glass part
OF the bottle with your warm
hands, for the sudden change of tenn
perture is apt to cause an explosion.
The best way to carry u Siphon at all
times is by the metal top at the head
OF the bottle. 1t is needless to say the
greatest care should be taken not to
drop IL Siphon, for an explosion is the
inevitable result. When cmpty the
sipllon is, OF course, quite harmless.
That those bottles are considered a
great source of danger is evidenced
by the facts that the Courts invariably
hold the bott]ers strictly liable for all
damages resulting from the explosion
OF one of them if even the slightest
defect in the, manufacture Of the bot
tie can be shown. 4

THE NEGRO IN CHICAGO.
He Barely pcs y, s,l0Iis Liz
From a Lyme sants nIoQ. -


Under a fire of bricks aud stones
policemen Wednesday night at Chica-
go, ILL.,, rescued a negro murderer
from a mob of would=be lynchers. Ten
minutes before, John Brinhley, q col
ored watchman, had shot and killed
Charles Mccarthy, plasterer, almost
in the presence of the lattcr's wife,
who stood in the doorway holding her
baby. Then the negro, backing into
the doorway Of his own quarters, held
q crowd Of 200 men and boys at bay
until policeman Robert Mooney walk
ed up to him unarined and took his
weapon. Mooney took his pris oner
.into the Office Of the tile factory, in
which BrinkleY was employed, to
await the patrol wagon. But as he
did SO the crowd surgea forward once
more with cries of Lynch him. .
Lynch him; get rope" Brinkley
turned and fled from the Office by the
rear door.
The mob saw the escape, and, head
ed by Mooney, streamed down an alley
in pursuit. :.tFhe negro ran several
blocks before he was finally. y.oyertaken.
The policeman having been brushed
aside Brinkiey was now at the mercy
of the crowd. A teamster jumped
down from his wagon and began lash
ing the negro across the face with his
whip, the victim being held the while
by a dozen men and boys. A patrol
wagon arrived with three policemen,
who, together with Mooney, seized the
negro and succeeded in dragging him
to the patrol wagon. The horses
were whipped up and the rescued pris-
oner whirled to the police station.
None Of the rioters was arrested. '
The killing grew out of quarrel in
which MCCARTHY had ACCUSED. Brinkley
Of stealing chickens from his premises.
