Detroit, Mich.—John Jones, a negro, twenty-two years old, suspected of be ing a holdup man, was shot as he dived out of an alley In a running bat tle with the police, and died twice. He was removed to the receiving hospital, where he died before the po lice could question him and secure In formation regarding holdups which they were sure he could furnish. Death had cheated the law, for dead men tell no tales. Silence then stepped In and cheated death. Dr. Courtney Fremont, a mem ber of the hospital staff, injected a «harge of adrenalin Into the heart muscle of the man who had been dead about half an hour and he came back to life. He lived for five hours, giv ing the pojire ample time In which to question him and secure such Infor mation as he was willing to give. He% then died again. Victory of Scionco. The shooting and double death of Jones took place severs I weeks ago, but passed practically unnoticed sa • news Item. As a shooting and single death It was just one more Hem In the grist of crime news that passes daily out of the police department. I The scientific angle, however, became a matter of medical record and aa such It has survived as another al most unnoticed victory of science. Bringing persons hack from the grave to live again la no longer a nov elty. It has been done scores of times. | When fhe miracle was Drat performed It received little publicity. It seemed ns If there must be some fake about It and, of course, newspapers could not be victimized by fakers, so the stories w*ere published with numerous quali fications hedged at>out all statements. Now that It has become well estab lished as a bona fide miracle of sci ence It does not possess quite the nov elty It did at first, and even spectacu lar events such as the Detroit Inci dent pass almost unnoticed. Baby Brought to Ufa. The first case on record in which a baby born dead was brought back to life occurred In a Brooklyn hospital. Mrs. Bertha Isaacson gave birth to twins, n boy and a girl, at the Boro Park Maternity hospital. The hoy, weighing three pounds, was born dead. The' girl weighed two and a half pounds. Dr. Philip Mlninberg admin istered adrenalin to the boy by hypo dermic Injection. It stimulated the In fant's heart to action and life re turned. Both Infants were fed with a medi cine dropper and were raised in an incubator until they had attained suf ficient growth. The boy who was brought back to life Is still alive, but Ids sister died before reaching her fourth birthday. They were born on Lincoln’s birthday, 1923. Since then the miracle has been repeated scores of times In Brooklyn as well as else where throughout the country. In Philadelphia a few years ago a man of forty who had suffered from tu berculosis half his life died. Twelve doctors gathered around his bed and for an hour applied every known test for a sign of life, without finding any. At the end of two hours rigor mortis had set In. A small amount of adre nalin was then Injected Into the heart At the end of two minutes the skin assumed a pink tinge which gradually changed to a flesh color. Ten min utes later the man was breathing faintly. His eyelids fluttered and he sighed as though awakening from sleep. **How do you feel 7** the mao was asked. “All right," he answered In a tired but very ordinary tone. “Did you have any dreams?” j “No. I slept" Hit tired eyes dosed "No nnusual aetiaaUonr •Na" Shortly afterward be returned to so unending dreamless sleep. — w TBY A Bit NAVAL RESERVE TO SEE SEA SERVICE Will Spend Two.
