A colored man was found dead
drunk-near the Seaboard depot one
evening last week, and some wags
in that district procured a cheap
coffin, laid him in it and exhibited
him to the horror stricken public as
a darkey who had been killed by the
train. In the course of the cere-
monies, the coon recovered con-
seriousness and realized where he
was. His first jump took him a good
ten feet from the coffin, and his
friends are keeping him sober with
the threat that they will bury him
next time.
