NEGRO HANGED,
BUT STILL LIVES
Hanged at Lonoke, but Was Revived,
and Went North and Has Now
Returned to Arkansas.
The Arkansas Gazette prints a
strange story from Lonoke, Ark.,
about the hanging of a negro, who.
after being hanged, was revived
b.v his friends, and is still living.
Here is what the Gazette says
about the affair:
“Several years ago doe Bogard,
a negro, was tried, convicted and
legally hanged for murder by the
Lonoke authorities.
"Last week the supposed dead
man was seen on the streets of
Lonoke by a number of people
who knew him, and who had no
difficulty in recognizing him. This
apparent reincarnation of the dead
caused a profound sensation, and
at lirst those who saw him could
not believe the evidence of their
own eyes.
"It seems that the negro's neck
was not broken, and that he was
restored to life by his family after
he had been pronounced dead and
turned over to them for burial.
Logard, who feared a second
execution, left these parts and took
up his residence in Worcester.
: .Mass., where he claims to have
since lived.
“Bogard says that despite all
these facts the negro is safer in
Arkansas than in Massachusetts,
and advises his friends to remain
in I he Sout li among the people who
1 b**st understand the negro's in
stincts and nature.
"lie says he prefers compensa
tion for his labor and honest toil in
1 preference to the deluded farce of
social equality."

SOMETIMES HAKE MISTAKES.
An exchange says: Yes we
| make mistakes in our eolutns, a
whole lot of them in the run of a
1 year. Wo have no monopoly on
this business, however. The whole
: of humanity is full of mistakes.
The preacher, the lawyer, the pub
lic speaker never appear before an
audience but what he makes mis
takes in grammar or rhetoric, and
if a large per cent of them had to
write their public utterances on a
blackboard, we fear they might do
violence to correct spelling. Mer
chants make mistakes, book keep
, ers, doctors, farmers and every
phase of humanity do. We write
ours on a blackboard each week
and hold it up to the public gaze,
while they do not. And then we
have two printers to help us in our
mistakes, even if we try to be cor
rect. If we published the mis
takes of every man in this town
we would have to take the air
j ship route to leave town.
