Dr. Graxe., Statement.

DENVER, May 13.-Dr. Graves made a statement to-day in which he most en- phatically denies that he ever admitted sending the bottle of whiskey to Mrs. Bar naby. He says he did not know he was accused of poisoning Mrs. Barnaby until he reached Denver. He has employed Judge Furman as his counsel, and under his advice Dr. Graves has refused to ap- pear before the grand jury. Judge Bel ford, one of the counsel in the famous Millington case, has been employed by the friends of Mrs. Barna5y. It is extremely probable that the grand jury will indict Dr. Graves, in which case Judge Furman says he will demand an immediate trial.

Where is Columbus Buried.

Christopher Columbus died in obscur-
ity and poverty at Valadolid. Spain, MAY
20, 1906 BY special favor of the monks
OF st. Francis. his body was, for a time,
deposited in the vault of their church in
that city, but some years later, i'll pur-
suance of his own expressed wish, the
remains were translated to Hispaniola
and placed in Il crypt under the Cathedral
of San Domingo. In 1879 the body of
Diego, the son of Columbus, was also
buried in the crypt, and some years after
wards, that of Luis, the discoverer's
grandson, was laid with the other two.
In 1875 the Spanish part Of San Domingo
was ceded to the French, but before the
cession permission was given for the re-
moval of Columbus body to Havana. A
metallic case, supposed to contain the
body of the tliscoverer, was removed and
placed in the Cathedral of Havana, and
the matter rested until 1877, when a
metallic casket WAS found III the San
Domingo vault, which beyond all doubt
was that of Christopher Columbus. 1t
was inscribed both within and without
with his name and titles, and proved be-
yond question that. through haste or care
lessness, the persons who effected the re-
moval in 1875 had carried away the body
of Diego, the son of Columbus, and that
the remains OF the great Admiral now
rest beneath the Cathedral of San Do

When spectacles Wore invented.

DR.. Johnson expressed surprise that
such benefactor to the human race as
the discoverer of spectacles should have
been regarded with indifference. Perhaps
this may be owing to the unfortunate fact
that we do not know with certainty the
name of our benefactor. Popular opinion
has long ago pronounced in favor of a
Florentine monk as the rightful claimant.
although some are in favor of Roger Ba-
con. Nj. Spoon, in his Researches Curl
eueses dsAntiques," fixes the date of the
invention or discovery Of spectacles be-
tween the years 12S0 and 1911, and saws
that Alexandra de Spina, having seen a
pair made by some other person who was
unwilling to communicate the secret of
their construction, ordered apair, discov-
cred the secretand forthwith made it pub
llc Italian antiquarians say that the per-
son to whom Spina was indebted for his
information was Salvino, who died in
l31S. and quotes from an ancient manu-
script his epitaph. which says: Here lies
SaNino Arnota Gle. Armati, of Florence,
the inventor of spectacles. May God par
don his sins.'
