He Caught Them. One night last week two fellows swiped a keg of beer from the Pinker - ton hotel, but the landlord, who was retiring for the night heard a suspici- ous noise and on going down saw them making off with the beverage. Although he had only his pyjamas on, mine host gave them chase and under cover of the night ran them through the main street of Pinkerton. Seeing the pursuer gaining, the cul- prits dropped the keg, but the chase continued nevertheless until a capture was effected near the corner. Just what the landlord did with his catch is not known, but there was a noise in the burg that night that sounded awfully like cruelty to animals, Returned The Medal. A few weeks ago when the Wing - ham excursion was here Mayor R. Patterson had a Fenian raid medal stolen from one of the show cases in his jewellry store. It belonged to Mr. Thos. Sinclair, having been his grand- father's. Mr. Patterson was much put out at the loss and was pretty certain that it was taken by a young lady from Wingham. However, he felt diffident about going after the party and exposing the theft and he made a settlement with Mr. Sinclair. Oa Fri- day last he received a letter from Winghem with the medal enclosed. It was a case, apparently, of a work- ing conscience, and the young *lady will feel better for having returned the purloined article.— [ Kincardine Reporter. There was considerable excitement in Wingham when it was found that Mr. Doyle, one of the hotelkeepers there, had been robbed of diamonds and jewellry on Friday night last to the extent of $330. There apparently was a following of false clues. On Saturday night a young girl registered at the Royal here under the name of Miss Pearson, Toronto. Ori Sunday night Mr. Doyle, Chief VanNorman and another officer came here from Wingham and arrested and searched the young lady, but allowed her to go, being satisfied that she was not a• party to the robbery. It is said that Miss Pearson is not the young wo- man's name, but she is a married wo- man.—[ Kincii.rdine Reporter.

MITCHEL From the New York Bluster, July 30. 2001. Near the middle or the nineteenth century an ingenious Frenchman wrote a story based on the idea that the liv- ing human tlody by a process or ex• baustion or its moisture called desic- cation could be kept as a mummy for an unlimited period and by the reintro- duction of water could be reanimated. £bis literary production was consid- ered by the people of that age to be very ingenious and highly imaginative. Mere was no pretense on the part of the author that the idea on which it was built was or ever would be possi- ole, nor was it taken seriously by the public. "1'he coming ot the twentieth century marked tate beginning of a new scien- tific era. For a hundred years men had been discovering that they could talk to each other from different tarts ot the globe; that disease was nothing more or Tess than the work of iull- nitely small germs and handreds of other—to them --Marvelous processes 01 acture. 'These discoveries were mostly aectdental. lint. about the year WOO rich uien began to found institutions with a view to making regular prog- ress, One at the most Important subjects studied by these institutions has been the human body and that mysterions life process which is born with it and grows as It grows. in the year 1912 scientists began to experiment, among other things, on the animal heart and tound that portions of It removed from the body and cultivated ID byptonic plasma would pulsate for several months. This changed the conditions under which the animal might be pro- nounced deed. It was also about this time that scientists laid down two causes of bodily death or corruption -- the action of microbes and self diges- tion. Prom this scientific fact natural- ly followed the axiom—exclude the microbes, exhaust the water and there can be no death. A hundred years have intervened be- tween a knowledge of this tact and its being put In practice. That which 150 years ago_ was the basis of an imagi- native extravaganza has today become the subject of an actual occurrence. It appears that about the middle of the twentieth century there lived in Chicago, then a small city of not more than four or five millions of people, a meat preserver named Swartz, whose son Adrian chose, rather than follow in fhe footsteps of his father, to de- vote himself to scientific research. Be- ing weir to a couple of billion dollars, or 2,000 wealth units --the people of that day had not been driven by vast accumulations to our present system of typifying fortunes --be was not pre- vented from following unremunerative tastes by poverty. This Adrian Swartz loved a beauti- ful girl whose name appears on the records as Muriel Anderson. Profes- sor Swartz worked on his own lines, In his own laboratory, keeping his in- vestigations a profound secret. What ne was doing has only come to light nifty rears after be was engaged In els work. Ue was absorbed In two things-- his investigations with a view to periwtnntiug the life principle and 11h::s Muriel Anderson. 11 wits then known that different parts ot the t)ocly may be taken from 1i person who has recently been pro- nntaneed dead by the old standard and preservt,(I in cold storage vaults for tau indefinite period. The young pro- ressor was able to start on bis investt- 'stttlons with n knowledge of this and rther facts Knowing that corruption may be kept ont by excluding mi- rrohes and water, tie devoted himself to the discovery of a process by which, after having kept there out, the water might he reintroduced at a later date without ndtnitting the microbes. 1'h: t the tnreatnlug process tnay be •41. .ended witboet producing corrup- *iotr Was 11150 t;;nowu to Professor .4wertz, and this was a very irnportant p?Int. The main problem before him wh;t not how to keep out corruption, out to restore animation. Miss Jlurfel Anderson was taken ill Etna died. tier tover's grief was so great that for a time it was feared that be would lose his reason. There was no evidence that the body was not disposed of by burial, which was the usual method in those days. After the girl's death Swartz was observed to pursue his tnvestigntions with still more eagerness than before. Indeed, hts relatives feared that be would go insane on the subject of perpetuating tire, There are traditions that a dog be- longing to one of his friends died and ten years later appeared at bis mas- ter's door and showed great delight at the reunion. 1t was whispered that the dog had been reanimated by the young professor. Tbere was a similar story about a cat, but unscientific per- sons claimed there was nothing re- markable in bringing back a cat to fife except for the tenth time. 'These matters are mentioned here to show that It was supposed Professor Swartz was reported to have achieved some success in his work. ltecently there was a commotion in the Institution for Scientific Research, located in this city. Doctors and pro- tessorsl have been seen to b. consult New Townships. Two anittoaa,l townships in the clay belt have been opened for settle- ment. One is Playfair township, in the Matheson agency. This is to be made available at once, we the southwest corner, which is mostly rock and swo.rnp. Also the first six concessions its the township of 1Cen . j edy, in the Cochrane agezzelr are to I be thrown open. Ing together in itvbispers, but despite the improved methods used by some of our enterprising reporters for magnifying the whisper waves the secret was kept, Then it was confided to one or two per. spas that a body that bad been more than half a century ago prepared for a life perpetuating process bad been discovered and removed to the institu- tion. With it was a paper some four decades old, giving the results of ex- periments in reanimating bodies, A re- port was circulated that late discover- ies completed the process laid down in the paper and might possibly render it effective. We are enabled in this issue, owing to the enterprise or one of our repot• torial staff, who used ear megaphones, X ray telescopes for looking through stone walls and other modern devices, to give our readers the most retnarka• ble achievement in science ever pro- duced by mortal man. In the year 1955, when tbe thertnom- eter stood 30 degrees below zero Fab- renbeit, there died In Chicago Muriel Anderson. The night of her burial her lover went alone to her grave, ex• humed her body and removed it to his laboratory, his object being to attempt to reanimate it. He had not then per- fected any process by which this could be accomplished and for the time be- ing devoted himself to preserving the body. His method was twofold, sur- rounding It by chemically produced cold -250 degrees Fahrenheit --and her• metic sealing. This accomplished, too body was left in a vault under tbe laboratory, and the .professor proceed- ed with bis experiments for resusci- tation on the lower animals. Time passed without any results sur- flciently certain to warrant the pro- fessor in risking the 11fe of his loved one in cold storage. Professor Swartz died without giv- ing up his secret, but he made provi- eion for a continuance or his work contingent upon certain happenings. Recently the ground on which his lab- oratory stood was sold for the purpose of erecting a 200 story skyscraper upon it. In digging tor the foundations the workmen came upon a snbcellar or vault fifty feet below tbe surface in which was a large glass mausoleum. Attached to it was a notice to look in the wall behind a metal plate. There was discovered a paper stating that the mausoleum contained the body ot Muriel Anderson, supposed to have died in 1955. 0.1ben followed a state- ment giving the process for life preser- vation and the results of Professor Swartz's,investigations with a view to reanimating bodies. The Lind was reported to the owner of the property, and be summoned a member of the corps of investigators of the Institution For Scientific Re- search. The mausoleum was removed to the institution and the paper read and discussed at a meeting of its sura rr of investigators. It at once appeared that certain obstacles that bad been In the way of Professor Swartz had been removed by recent discoveries m,tcie at the institution. The first question discussed w as whether the body would be found upon examination to have retained the germs of life for half a century, but It was agreed that this knowledge could only be gained by the right process ot re animation. That process was under discussion for several weeks with ev- ery effort to keep the secret. Ftn.►Iip Dr. Shuntunner, Ph. D.. 1. S. (iuvesti gator in science), presented a pin at procedure that captured the Investiga- tors, and it was determined to put It In practice at once. The glass sarcop'hngus was found to contain water, but at a tempernture of 145 degrees minus, or In the solid form. Its introduction had leen in- tended to show that water should be introduced when resuscitation was cunt• menced; warmth wns gradually intro duced and with it intinitesititat qunoti ties of oxygen and then a tittle ordi- nary atmosphere. The body resembled a skeleton cov• ered with leather, but under a slow process of the introduction or qtr and water a slight filling out was percepts• ble. Tho latest microbe antiseptic was used, and successfully. So slow was the process that It was a week before the watchers began to percesive the slightest sign of a living orgarri,an, dna even then there was no certainty con cerning it. It would be Impossible for the tinsel• entiflc mind to follow the enrage; dear vices preventive of danger n pplled by the revivers. Results alone enn be gists en. Within ten days the body had as- oumec'i some degree ot roundness. There was still the pallor formerly slip posed to indicate death, but now known In some cases to indicate only a sus pension of the action of the heart. The first sign of life was n slight tremor, at which the resuscitators clasped one an. other's hands in an ecstasy at hope It was soon after this that tate ttn(ty was removed from the srtrcoph:tern and ,placed in a warm bed.
