THOUSANDS OF LETTERS
 TO HELP FELLOW MAN
Rv Associated d Press

Chicago, July S0-The manner In which man will attempt to assist his fellow creature, for financial re- turn or otherwise, is shown in the number of replies received as the result of an article pup lished a year ago which erron- eously stated that Benjamin Hyde. a retired contractor, would give $l,000 to any one who could tell him how to obtain sleep without the use of medicines.
 The article misquoted Mir Hyde, who is suffering from paralysis agi- tans, and more than 5000 letters were written giving him varied lines of advice as to how to sleep.
 MT. Hyde has recently made an- other offer of $2.000 but in order to avoid answers from irresponsible persons he has confined the offer of the reward to physicians of gool standing" His condition Is that the cure permanently free him from tre- mors and muscular contractions and enable him to sit in a chair without having pains in his back.

 The night of the seance there was an uprising of the starving peasants, who entered the castle and killed all but five friends and Lady Triphaine. and then set fire to the chateau. All
