Preferred Ground in Cemeteries

1t is "A remarkable fact that in GENE
teries which have an eastern and western
slope the eastern slope graves are consid-
cred preferable. The bodies are usually
buried with feet toward the east; there
fore. while all the graves are level, it seems
that on the western slopes the bodies rest
with the feet higher han the head.-Yan-

samIaon was Very Much in Love.

y
Theresa Krei9her, 20-year-old Irish
girl, landed from the Ethiopia at Ellis
Island yesterday. and is at Father Cal
laghan's Mission fer Immigrant Girls.
At Ellis Island q good-looking young
fellow Was seen talking TO her very
earnestly His manner became en-
treating. and he finally fell upon his
knees, but Theresa turned her back and
walked away. The officials learned
that the man was Thomas Sammon, Of
St Louis From the examination Of
both the following story came out
Theresa's parents are well-to-do peo-
pie in 4 small town in county Galway,
Ireland. Theresa was petted and was
somewhat romantic, and it was hard to
get her to comply with the staid life of
Il small town. She left her home and
went TO Dublin against the wishes Of
her family, and got situation in dry
goods store rs saieswoman, though she
was in no need Of money. She was en-
gagged 10 he married to Eugene Mont
gomery and said she would return short
" 10 her native town and settle down.
Thomas Summon had formerly lived in
the town where Theresa's parents
lived He had gone to America and
settled at St. Louis. 4 year ago he
went back to his native place He be-
came desperately in love with Theresa,
but his suit did not prosper. Theresa
had been some time in Dublin when
Sammon called upon her and gave her
a paper purporting to be signed by her
father, telling her TO carry out his in
structions as given by the bearer. Sam
mon said he was instructed to taIe her
to America, and that she must get
ready Immediately. She had $50 Of
her own. When she was well upon
the ocean Sammon again urged his
love and asked her to marry him then
and there The captain would marry
them, he said. Theresa refused, and
then suspected that the paper signed
by her father was a forgery. Sammon
acknowledged this, urging in excuse
his love for her.
Theresa said she felt some sympathy
for the man who loved her so much, so
she did not complain to the captain.
When she arrived at Ellis Island she
had $50 Of her money left. She said
she did not want anything done to
Sammon, and he was discharged Miss
Kreighey will remain with Father Cal
lahan until her parents have been
heard srom.-N. !. SuR

Eur FOR THE BALD MAN.-Dr.
John IIge, Readings skin-grafting spec
iaI;st, who Il year ago or more gained
considerable notoriety by successfully
transplanting skin from The forearm OF
q colored Elan to the leg OF a white
man, and who subsequently manufact-
ured dime museum freak by planting
a flowing mustache upon the upper lip
OF handsome young woman, is con-
tinuing his experiments in that direc-
ton.
The doctors latest achievement, per-
formed two days ago, with every evil
dcncc Of success, is that Of supplying
4 bald-headed man with a covering of
hair that u football player might envy.
The patient upon whom this operation
was performed is Charles Mueller, OF
Washington, and the subject from
whom the material was drawn to cover
the bare spots on the patients head
was Il Mr. Gcrticsu.
Dr. Ege removed from the head Of
Giertiesu Q piece of scalp one and a
quarter inches wide by two and a
nalf inches long, well covered with
hair and repIanied it upon the head of
Mueller. This operation took place
on Saturday last, and there is every
evidence of the transplanted piece OF
SCALP with hair attachment growing
The soreness created by the removal
ola portion Of Gertiesu's scalp is almost
healed. the doctor having SO skilllul
ly drawn the lacerated scalp together as
to almost remove all evidence of its
removal, with the exception of two
small spaces which he purposely left
open with the view of further expert
ments to-day. He will cover those
spots with hair-covered skin taken
from some animal, and upon the sue
ccssiul attachment of that transplant
ed auimal skin upon the head Of Ger
tiesu depends the fate of the future
bald headed men. If the doctor be sue
cessful the bald will no longer be oblig-
cd to hid their badness under the old
fashioned, uncomfortable wig, but can
simply surrender themselves to the
doctor and have transplanted to their
pates the covering of some other fel.
low who is willing to surrender bis
hair for Il golden salve.-Philddelpdia

AN UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT.

Eight Prisoners ut tho Station House
Caught While Trying to Escape.
Station Keeper Williams came near
losing eight OF his dodgers hortly before
midnight The eight prisoners who de-
cided to try to effect their escape were
locked into one small coll next to the
wall. Part of them surrounded the re-
rnaindor who worked away loosening the
ceiling of the wall, and thus their
movements were concealed.
One OF them afraid that they would
be detected asked to be removed ard
when in another cell told the rusty,
who waits on the prisoners. what was
going on. The trusty informed SEA.
ton Keeper Williams immediately and
just in time to prevent their escape
The ceiling of the wall had been re-.
moved and TO knock off tho weather
boarding was all that remained to be
done to effect an opening through
which they could have escaped.
They were removed to safer cell.
Sam Webb, the negro charged with
raising one-dollar note to ten, was
in the cell. The other prisoners are
serving terms for fines of from IS to Sis
for petty offenses.

The Circus.

THE great Forepaugh circus gave it's
initial performance in Boston for this
season yesterday afternoon to large
audience that was doubled in numbers
in tho evening. The word circus U.
plies nearly all that may be said about
great show of the kind that is pre-
sented this week, except that each year
brings in novel and surprising features
in the ring. and additions to tho menag-
cries that fully keep alive the interest.
The ''show" opens with the historical
biblical spectacle, The Fall of Nineveh, ;
which evidences the eye for splendor
which the author, John Rettig, has. and
has already shown in his other spec
tacles, such as Nero and The Fall OF
Babylon Tho reproduction on canvas
of scenes of Nineveh with the costuming
OF its peoples, the soldiers with horses
and their trappings, chariots, all enter
into the splendid spectacle which ends
in the self DIT struction Of the degenerate
king. The rich costumes of the ballet
enhance the very pretty scenes OF long
line Of dancing girls. "-Boston Record,
June 7, '92.
