DAILY ENQUIRER ■ SUN: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 3, 1886. A MAN WITHOUT BONES. Cm bi> Tied In n Knot Carpet. K«lt<‘d I p l.lkr “ I used to hunt moonRhincrHin thi 1 Ken- toc.kv mountains as n deputy United .States marshal,” salda Ixiulsville, Ky., Rontloman to a Now York Star reporter. “ My last trip was made two years atfo as n member of a nosse of marshals who prowled around In the vicinity of Barbourvllle. Ky. It was on that trip that I saw a man without a bone in his lmdy—a man who could be. flattened out like a pancake and rolled up like a carpet. For the truth of what I’m going to tell you now I shall refer you to United States Marshal Isaac Arbuckle, of Carter county, Kentucky. “We had made a revenue raid, without ceaa, and our ]torse separated to return to Barbourvllle by different routes to avoid •napicion. We were not to return the same day, either, and I was told to wait awhile before going back to the village. I spent the first night after the raid in the cabin of a poor farmer among the hills. During the conversation in the evening, in which I took part, some one incidently spoke of Hector Davis, the ‘man without bones.’ I asked what was meant by that expression, and w as told that Hector Davis was ‘one of our neighbors, three miles up the road, who hasn’t a bone in his body/ I laughed at the statement, but iny Ihost volun teered to show me over the hills to Hector Davis’ home. I promised to go, expecting to see a rustic contortionist or a sick man. “We knocked at the Davis cabin about 0 o’clock next, morning. The first thing I saw upon entering the door was a middle- aged man sitting upright in a rude invalid’s chRir. A framework attached to tpe back of the chair supported his head. He was introduced to me by my guide. Rufus I’ick- well, as Hector Davis. I entered into con versation with the man and found him to be as well informed as any of the mountain farmers. His voice was firm, but not very loud. I grasped his hand when introduced, but I dropped it lively. His fingers rolled ■p together like so many bands, lie in vited me to take hold of his limbs, and they yielded to pressure until flattened to twice their proper width. The only indi cation of bone was bis skull, and that, could be depressed, but if done it gave the poor fellow much pain. Tlis neck was as limber as a rag, and his head, when released from the frame, rolled helplessly about on bis shoulders. His arms hung at his side, but he could not raise the forearms up a trifle. There was no strength in his wrists, and when the arms were raised the hands curled very limply. ' Davis shuffled off his slipper mu’! asked me to step on bis foot. I did so and it, flattened out like rubber. It took several minutes for it to resume its natural shape, and it was half an hour be fore he could put on his slipper. ‘“Perhaps you would like to'tie my leg in a knot?’ said he. Piekwell and myself found no difficulty in performing this feat, bat we bail to untie the knot soon, because it prevented circulation in the limb. We also tied knots in his arms. I began to to think I had seen enough. T bad some thing of the feelings of a man after attend ing a spiritualist sen nee. But 1 had not, seen the most wonderful exhibition of bonelessness. “‘Can you lay me down on the floor?’ asked Davis, wo did, hut it was no easy task, for Iuh body si I oped in all directions. We secured Arm grips upon his clothing and kept him from falling. Piekwell bad assisted at this performance before. After laying him down on the clean rag carpet my com million seized a barrel, which I afterward learned contained turnips, and proceeded to roll it over the prostrate Davis from his toes to his chin. The only manifestation of distress or pain shown was when the barrel rolled across his chest. The barrel left, Davis in a horrible shape. He was literally ‘flat os a pan-cake.’ But this was not all. ‘Roll me up, Rufus,’ said the boneless horror. Immediately Pick- Well doubled Davis’ head over on his chest and then continued to roll him up like a big door mat. When his feet wore reached Davis looked llko an armadillo, and he soon asked to be unrolled again. “While the mail’s body was resuming its natural shape I learned from his old spec tacled mother, who sat in a rooking chair near by knitting, though apparently not liking the exhibition, that her son was forty years old. He had enjoyed perfect health until two years before, when his hands and feet gradually became numb and weak. Then the bones began to soften and this spread rapidly to all parts of bis anatomy. Beyond making him helpless he never experienced any incon venience from the strange affliction. All his vital organs performed their functions B ropcrlv and the mother believed that eetor would.live to a good old age.” Too Much of u llooil Tiling, Boston Herald. Perhaps in no way do so many other wise sensible people make fouls <>r them selves at in the way in which they try to look mil for the future of their children. The high road t.o happiness those deluded parents believe, can only He; in the abun dance of things the little ones possess. Instead of one extemporized m - doll, why twenty elaborate dolls with wax faces, Tolling eyes and tv plain' ive squeak in tic pit of the stomach, and the same with the supply of sleds, tops, balls and marbles. Only stimulate greed enough in the youth ful mind and feed the. passion every fifteen minutes with something new, and a peren nial state ot inward blessedness must lie t he result. Now, no doubt, this receipt is a capital one for rearing a class of girls that will be above marrying any man who can not steadily stimulate them with a whirl of dresses, dinners, carpets and amusements, and of men who, if they ever have influ ence or brains enough to secure them a fat S lace of trust, will develop into first-class efaulters. It takes a great deal of his own, and, if ho lacks it, other people’s money, to run a man who is predisposed to feel languid, or even depressed in spirits, whenever it does not chanife to rain cham paigns, woodcocks, polo, casinos and cn- melios. Take, for example, the lost case of wholesale defalcation that, has excited Boston, and been for the past few days the town talk. Whereas, the ordinary, well- regulated mind, if addicted to poultry, finds happiness in one Shanghai or Dorking rooster and his harem of a dozen liens; here was a man that was SUPREMELY WRETCHED unless he could own every kind of a hen the perverse ingenuity of cross-breeders had tortured out of the original stock. Somebody must pay for them or personal unhappiness would be sure to ensue. Next it was flowers that struck his all-devouring fancy. Sinull blame to them for that! In deed, what a world of .satisfaction many a man gets out of his little beds of li lies, heliotropes and roses. But such pitiful pleasures as these, how beneath so much as contempt were they to the oceanic floral cravings of the gentleman in question. Nothing short of every flower that blooms on the brink of the glaciers of the Alps or in the torrid juilgles of India would do. All this, of course, necessitated a great va riety of climatic conditions in the way of glass houses to shelter them, ' as likewise a great variety of money, as would be found, should the question of its right ful ownership ever be pointedly mooted; Next, horses and carriages took their turn in ruling this imperial imagination, and after that yachts. . Now horses alone have run away with many a man. Are there not Morgans and Blaekhawks and a dozen other breeds? Are there not trotters and pacers and rockers and no end to subtle aatanic devices in the way of pbietons and broughams and sulkies and dog-car is. Why not, then, stop there and leave yachts alone? How Illogical the question! Fust, because horses uro only U3iful by land, and, second, because the ocean is too illim itable and sublime an element to be dis graced by punts and oatboats. Moreover the ocean has perils and hardships that NEED TO BE MITIGATED by luxurious state rooms, champagne sup pers and lots of jolly fellows; and so, again, the question of a scarcity of money gets started in the mind, and new light is cast upon financial claims to which the treas urers of great manufacturing ,conc6rns are exposed. As any thoughtful man watches the rate at which life is nowadays lived by so many, the wonder ought not to be that there are such numbers of infamous defalcations, but that they do not come in avalanches. The power of extracting rich and abiding satisfaction out of a few objects and a few intimate companions seems to be fast lie coming a lost art, Hnd a diseased mental restlessness is setting in that is laying the ax at the root of all tranquil enjoy ment of domestic, social and literary life, and of simple happiness in nature, books and friends. At any rate, this holds true of a large class that seerfis to be the especial envy of those of smaller means. It is a pity that envy cannot be made to subserve a higher nnd more rational end. The true man to envy is the one who, with an observing eye, an alert mind, a genuine enthusiasm for beauty, and flO in his pocket, shows the world how to get more delight and inspiration out of a short vaca tion than a dozen average bankers can ex tract from the costliest yachts and the most stylish four-in-hands, even though paid for with the stocks-of widows and orphans. Of all the high roads to utter poverty, there is none equal to insisting on owning everything. A man really owns only so much as he can nestle into the in most heart of. HOW ARE THEY TO BE PAID?

August 31.—The Capital to-day Bays: “The accounting officers of the treasury department are hi some doubt ns to what they will do with the accounts of certain public officers who have been I appointed by the president siiioe congress i adjourned. They are those whose noniina- j lions were not acted on by the senate. It is understood to be held by the republican senators that section 60 of the tcnurc-of- offloe act prevents the reappointment of a man appointed to fill a vacancy before the late sesBfonof the senate whose nomination was not noted upon. The president has, however, reappointed a number of men who were in that eonflition. It is understood that he examined the law in the ease carefully before doing so and that he rests his right to make these appointments upon the last clause of tho second seel ion of the second article of the constitution, namely : ‘The president shall have the power to ill] up all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the sen- I lite by granting commissions which shall expire at the end of tin. ir next session.’ “Tlie construction put upon the words ‘that may happen’ by the president is un-] derstood to give them the effect of (he I words ‘that may happen to exist.’ This bus been held to be their real meaning by | the department of justice under several ad ministrations since* the tonure-of-offiae act was passed. But some of the accounting ! officers of the treasury are not quite cev- ! tain thul it would be safe for them to ap prove the accounts of officers of this cln&s \ under section 1762, revised statutes, which t provides an imprisonment of more than ten years or n fine of not more than .fl0,000, ! or both, for .allowing the nceounts of per sons appointed contrary to the provisions of the tonurc-of-offlce act.” THE CLINGMAN TOBACCO OINTMENT Tin: MOST EFFECTIVE I’lCKIMKA- TI4IN on tlie market for Piles.
