How He Lost His Nose.-The SIM reports
this singular case "John Stalpet, young Ger
man, living with his family in the rear of Balti-
more Cemetery, is recovering from severe and
unusual injury Two weeks ago, while walking
up to the house, he stopped to play with large
dog was always rather savage, and twice before
had bitten Stapert, but not severely. On this
occasion Stalpert patted the dog on the head,
whereupon the animal sprang at him and snapped
the end of his nose off. He ran to the house, and
his brother afterwards found the severed part of
his nose near the dog kennel. Taking that with
him, Stalpert came into the city and went to the
Office of DR.. L. McLane Tiffany. The doctor
thought the time elapsing between the casualty
and when he saw Stalpert too long for him to
successfully restore the severed part to its origi
nal place. He, however, sewed it on, but, as he
Thought, the parts would not unite, and q week
ago he removed the top of the nose, and now the
lacerated parts are healing up without that por-
ton of the nose."

machinery, stock of goods, &C., will be about
S25 900, upon which there is insurance in several
companies aggregating about $4,000. The mill
