As FROM THE DEAD.
When Mitchell Returned to His
Family at Marinette He Took
a Fortune.
Reported to Be Dead by Denver Pa
pers-Four Years Spent in
a Hospital.
Special to The Journal.

Menominee, Mich, June with the
return of L. e. Mitchell, who was for
merly a civil engineer in this district, and
whose family resides at 1903 Sherman
street, Marquette, there comes to light
a story so strange that it would form an
excellent basis for a romance.
Mr.. Mitchell left Marinette eight years
ago to try his luck at prospecting in the
far west. He went to Colorado, where he
worked for about a year. Then he was
the victim Of a railway accident. There
was just about to be a collision, and he
with several others jumped from the car
windows. Mitchell struck on his head and
was picked up unconscious and taken to a
hospital in Denver. His skull was frac-
tured, and brain injured. Attic his bodily
strength returned, his brain remained
weak and he was kept there under thu
care Of a physician for four years. His
memory was a blank during this time,
but under treatment it finally returned to
| him. He then Immediately set out to
earn money with which to return to his
| family.
At the time of the accident the Denver
papers printed his name among the list
Of killed and one Of these papers found it's
| way to the family in Marinette, which
mourned him as dead.
After regaining his mind fortune favored
him and a year ago he discovered silver
! mine which is very valuable and is being
/ operated by a large force of men. Having
become comparatively wealthy in a short
| time, he returned to his home two weeks
ago, where he was welcomed as one FROM
the dead. He will move his family to Col-
orado to enjoy the fortune he has won.

Horses and wagons and bugles and drums,
Boxes of tricks
And monkeys sticks

I'd like 'em too
Now wouldn't you?

PIE LABELED DANGEROUS"

If were president of Colombia the first step
would take would be to recall my troops from Pa

public would fear Of interfering with the

try to withstand powerful nation.
Next I would do all in my power to advance the

be more it than Colombia? This country

A BOW TO FATE
If had the honor Of being president of Colombia
would submit to the inevitable would allow Panama
to secede and would not anything because it would
not be of any The people of Colombia thought
they knew what they doing when they rejected the
proposition of the United States They knew that the
people of Panama would be dissatisfied if the PROPOSE
ton rejected. They knew how loose was the
nection between them and that they could not control
them if they wished to secede. Knowing all these
things, I think it very foolish for the Colombian
senate to reject proposition Some people might
think the would take cowardy but think it is
the only way President Marroqun act.
