" Mystery is beginning- to deepen con cerning the identity of the dead man n-ho lies in the undertaking establish nt vi Z. A. Hovis & Company cn North Try on street. The body is that "rf a white man found on the Southern Hailroad tracks about a half a mile be- -nid North Charlotte a week or so ago. Indications point to the fact that th r an was killed by a passing train. Ee rie him "ms found the dead body of a negro, killed in the samem anner, the ,tu."i eins" identified by papers on iv.s I' -cn as being from Spartanburg. S. ' Nothing- was discovered in his pocli ets. He was dressed in unkempt garments. His physique was splendid, being well jroportinned throughout. His hair w:is :i;ht auburn. He appeared to be about ;6 years old. His hands were stained with the juice of blackberries, indica :irg that he knew what it was to bi hungry. But one wound was evident cr his body, the top of his head beias: crushed in. It is believed that he and the negro fell asleep on the track.- while waiting fora chance to hobo and that a yHssir.g train struck them. "very day people walk into the Hov:s srdertaking establishment and ask te the body. "I ha-e sif t-t man somewhere." r.any exclaim. "I can almost place b,:: not quite." Every day it is ius.t th s-me. All ajree that the man has a familiar fa-e. ; feel 'hat thn- r-in almost. plae him "but not quite." Several days ago a man, who said that he was from Danville. Va., came ir. and expressed the belief that tht rr-zy might be that of a close relative, "ho had been missing for some tinvi. r.'t when shown the body, he saidr - "No. he is not my cousin. But I have ?n him somewhere before. I can a! rr.t place him but not quite." Henry Thomas .of the United States secret service department in Charlotte, t ck a lof'k at the body an ddeclared ;'nat he. too. had seen thejnan some vh"r before, bet could not place him. The mystery remains unsolped.- Mr. Knvis is determined to hold the body ffr some time yet in an effort to find out who the man is. 'Something will turn up," he said. "Either somebody will finally place bin. or some clue to his identity will te found." NICKY ARNSTEIN IS SENT UP FOR 2 YEARS "Washington, June . 24. Jules W.
