The latest freak of nature and marvel

the body Of a negro porter, Charles
Hugo Ball, in Colusa. Mutation began
several years ago. The spots of white
have spread TO the face and hands. Al
though the victim of this strange disease
suffers no i'll effects at present, he has
been advised that as soon as the COM
plete change takes place death will en-
sue. Ball is a hard working laborer and
enjoys life but is the object of curiosity.
Ball was born in Columbia, Ga, in 1886.
His parents were full blooded negroes,
