The foüowirig from a recent issue of the Jackson Citizen will interest many of our readers: 'Saturday afternoon Deputy Sheriff Eldert, of Ann Arbor, carne to Jackson with Williain H. Warner, who was apprehended in that city Saturday ïnorning at the instance of Chief Boyle. Warner for several years has been a wanderer and could not be found, despite the best efforts of his friends. "After Warner 's arrival his straggling beard was removed, his Bbaggy hair trimmed, and a nevv snit of clothes and clean garments took the place of others soiled, tattered, and dust-covered. He was placed in a room in the juvenile department of the jdil, where he was ealled upan by quite a number of old friends, whom '. recognized, and beean to teil of his great weaith, the number of railroads he owned, and other highly improbable things, recited in a i'ambling, incoherent nanner. 'He was given a banjo today, and after tunning up, made the jail corridors resound with "twaflg, twang'' of the instrument. He at once broke into a snatch of song about an old cottage back of the sea. His friends left him with a peculiar sadness, thinking of the once whole-souled, jolly ' Billy" Warner."'
