VERY MUCH ALIVE
Press Association. —Copyright. (Ilecd. 12.30 p.m.) LISBON, March 1(5. As an old beggar woman was missing from her usual haunts, neighbours went to her house and found her prone, stone cold, and seemingly lifeless. They ordered a coffin and prepared for her burial and then asked that the church bell be tolled. At the first peal thereof the corpse jumped up and cried, "Who is dead?" Then seeing the shroud upon herself she began a tirade which sent the mourners helter-skelter.
