A man who 1m believed to have be longed to a noble English family died from exposure Iji Wayne nine years ago and bit* body Ht tit Hob unclaimed In the morgue of fl. P. Frsnkenfleld's Bonn, nay it a dispatch from Ardrnore, fa. Mack was employed for ueveral years by It. II.' Johnson, a contractor of Wayne. He was a man of educa tion and culture, and, according to rumor, was the heir to a British tills which, for some mysterious reason, b? would not or could not claim. When tho man died J. B. Pearce, at Ibat time an undertaker, but who has ulu< o retlrod, embalmed the body and decided to hold it until It should bt claimed. No one ever claimed it, and,?i as the embalming was unusually su^> cossful, a number of efforts have boon made by musoums to purchase t h?j body, but Mr. Pearce says ho will not surrender it except to some member of Mack's family. The body has been viewed by thou sands of people, i)\any of them En glishmen, who hoped to identify it The skin retains its natural color; and tho sandy mustache and hair remain aa in life. The nose has become un naturally sharp from having been pinched by people who doubled if tho man was really dead. Over the lt?ad of tho mummy a cuckoo clock is kept going to koep him from getting lone some. Twine from Wisconsin Wire Grass Wire g^aBS twine Is a now product of the Northwest, which promises to relieve tho stringency of the supply of Manila twine during the wheat har vest season. The wire grass from which tho twine is made is grown in Minnesota and Wisconsin, and other products no well as twine, are made from it. C. W. Crawford of Indianapo lis, explained the nature of tho new product: "For tho last ten years or more," ho said, "tho wheat harvest season has assumed the aspect of a bugbear to farmers who did not have a large supply of twine on hand. Without twine binders cannot run, and without binders It is Impossible to harvest wheat. "The only variety of twine that could bo used in the past was tho Manila variety, imported from tho Philippine Islands. The supply of that always gave out beforo the harvest ended, and. tho lack of it often occa sioned grdat loss. The new wire grass has proved to be equal, if not superior to Manila twine, and tho farmers may rest easy now."
