In Wodnosdny morning's Phlladol
phla Press wo find tho following item
which will greatly amuse pooplo horo
ubouts. It is a beautiful fako from
tho brain of somo fly newspaper ro
porter:
A strange story comee to-night from
Pnokorton, whero Car Inspector Shaet
zle has just recovered a packet of lost
nionoy through n "Hoxa." Shnotzle,
who is well-known along tho line of tho
Lehigh Valley Railroad, received his
monthly pay at dusk, and for safe keep
ing placed tho onvolope oontuiulng it
in his dinnor bucket.
Some ono stole It. He is a hard
working man, and his lost almost drove
him crasy. When ho reached his homo
in East Mauoh Chunk in tho evening
the man was wild with grief. Some one
told him that instead of plaoing his
case iu the hands of u detective ho
should consult au old Hexa doctor over
In Beaver Run. He did so. Shaetclo
visited the Hexa doctor, told him of
his loss, and the latter at ouoe express
ed his ability to reoover the money,
Shaeule relates his experience as fol
lows:
"The doctor invited me into his pri
vate office, a rooni eight by ten, with u
strong sulphurous smell, filled with
the most hideous skeletons and appli
anoes imaginable. After a long and
earnest examination of a number of
astronomical and other charts, tho
doctor gave me three stripe of red
white aim blue paper on whloh was
marked the foUowingineorlptiou, "Non
Ooiuux dl Vlndu X M C D V Tri Undi
ded." One of the stripes I burled uu
dor the eaves of my house, one .1 nailed
to the wall of the Paokerton shops near
where the dinner bucket stood when
tho money was stolen, and the other
strip I sewed into the heel of my stock
inu-."
The hexa inscription translated into
plaiu English means that the thief is
commanded to return the stolen money
within twelve hours or else he shall die
a horrible death.
"This did the business," suid Shaetzel
when 1 arrive,! ut work yesterday I
found the money intact hi my tool
chest "
