v. G. Idem, Washington correspond

change of front on the sugar schedule
and the tariff commission as indica-
lions that the president is about to re-
pudiate the Democratic policy of free
trade and adopt the Republican policy
of protection, under the guise Of in
creased revenues. This would be a
triple somersault for Woodrow Wilson
to perform, but his recent grand and
lofty tumbling on political questions
for political purposes should have
trained him for such feat as CHM

mind on the protective policy, as well
as any other. just before election, he
can also flop back to his old position

ranting and tearing its hair about the

WHO WAS "MASBORO,"
MYSTERIOUS V|Re|M|AN?!
Was Born AT vinton, Va, November

Was a Miss Percy.
FAMILY HUNTING UP RECORDS
Was Overtaken BY Death Before He
Confided His History to His Chill
dren--Became Prosperous Physi-
clan in Ohio.

Who was born at VLton, Virginia,
November ., 1913? A woman in
Ohio wishes to know, not to satisfy
curiosity or to write history. but to
solve what officers of the State Board
of Health describe as the most I'M
usual mystery yet brought before the
bureau of vital statistics.
Some time ago, a prosperous physi-
clan of Ohio, Nasboro by name. felt
his death approaching. and confided
to his dumb-founded children that the
name with which they had been chris
tened, baptized and reared was not
their correct name. They were his
children but he was not Nasboro.
Years before, he told them, he had
run away from home, had gone TO
England, had studied medicine there.
had returned to America and, refus-
ing to answer Advertisements from his
anxious parents, had built up his
practice in Ohio. His mother. he said.
had been a Miss Percy, and her chill
dren were named Thomas. John and
Annie. He had an uncle who was
a seafaring man, Familiarity known as
BLACK Jack" His real name. he
said. was not unlike that by which he
was known-Nasboro or Marlborough.
He promised to tell the whole story
and to explain the reasons for his
change of name, but before he could
do so. death put an end to his con-
fession, and he died as he had lived,
a man OF mystery and of unknown
name. Among his papers his heirs
found a memorandum stating that he
had been born at Vinton, Virginia,
Nvember 9. 1913; beyond this he left
not a scrap to esta blish his identity.
His family has now written the
State Bureau of Vital Statistics to in
quire for list of those born at Vim
ton at the time indicated. Had the
request been for a list Of those born
since June. 1912, when the new regis
tration law went into effect the bu-
reau would have been able to supply
the precise details with the names of
the children their parentage, race. etc.
But as no vital statistics were regis
tered in Virginia in 1S4s, the bureau
can furnish no information.
In the hope, however. that some
OF the older residents of Vinton may
recall the disappearance OF young
man about the time OF the war be-
tween the States, the State Board of
Heath has authorized the publication
OF the facts, These clues, 1t is be-
leved, will be sufficient to identify
the man of mystery. His mothers
family name was Percy, his brothers
Cor perhaps himself) Thomas or John,
his sister Annie. his uncle a sailor and
his real name not unlike Nasboro.
The state Board of Health will be
glad to receive information from
chose who may remember the man.
