Or. GRAVES GOES FREE.
Will Not BE Again Prosecuted ON
Account of the Expense.

VIII NOT ne ashih EIoNtCuttu On
Account of the Expense.
On Monday was witnessed the last act In the
Graves case, and the curtain was rung down
on the hero free to 60 with his little wife
whittier he may wish.
The only thing necessary to make the play
complete would be the disposal Of the bright
soubrette, Miss Sallie Hanley, who ought to
be married off to some desirable party, but
she is supposed to walk of the scene and re-
pair teeth In matter OF fact manner. The
alleged villains are supposed TO be dead.
Dist ATTY. Steele, it Is believed, will ask
the court to dismiss the case. He may make
a feeble effort TO get continuance, but he
does not care to give Judge Macon chance
TO talk at all, and a motion for dismiss will
shut off further debate.
County Commissioner Anderson said that
nothing official had been done in the matter
of voting money to secure witnesses in an
other trial, and 1t is his opinion that the
board win not consent to the expense just to
make another chapter in this farce

Covering q Bald Head With Frog Skin.

Doctor John Eye, Readings skim
grating specialist, who year ago or
more gained considerable notoriety by
successfully transplanting skin from
the forearm of colored man to the
leg of white man, and who subse-
quently manufactured dime museum
freak by planting flowing mustache
upon the upper lip of handsome
young woman, is continuing his ex-
periments in that direction. The doc
tors latest achievement, performed
with every evidence of success, is that
of supplying II baldheaded man with q
covering of hair that football player
might envy. The patient upon whom
this operation was performed is Charles
Mueller, of Washington, and the sub.
ject from whom the material was drawn
to cover the bare spot on the patients
head was Mr.. Gertiesu.
Doctor Eye removed from the head
of Gertiesu piece of scalp 1t inches
wide by p inches long, well covered
with lair, and replanted it upon the
head of Mueller, The soreness created
by the removal of a portion of Ger
tiesu's scalp is almost healed, the doc
tor having 80 skilfully drawn the LAGER
ated scalp together as to almost remove
all evidence of its removal with the ex-
ception of two small spaces, which he
purposely left with the view of further
experiments He will cover those spots
with hair-covered skin taken from some
animal, and upon the successful at
tachment of that transplanted animal
skin upon the head of Gertiesu de-
ponds the fate of the future baldheaded
men.
Ii the doctor be successful the bald
heads will no longer be compelled to
hide 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 fell
low who is willing to surrender his
head for golden salye. -Philadelphis

The officers Of the Brooklyn Tabernacle
met the church's creditors debt at the Bible
House recently, and came to all agreement.
The official statement was IN part: The
incubus of debt which has hung like night
mare over the Brooklyn Tabernacle for
many months has been removed, and the
much mooted question Of Rev. DR.. Tai
IMAGES resignation from his "a years pas
torate was f1ctualy settled in the mega
tive. This new aspect Of affairs was brought
about by the payment OF claims representing
an aggregate OF about $50, 900"
The creditors uniformly expressed their
satisfaction with an arrangement reached
on a basis Of % per cent. DR.. Ta'mage con-
tribuied Sl0.0O0 personally toward the
liauidation Of the debt, and Mr.. kIopsch
collected $4,000 more, which, together
with contributions from various other
quarters, placed the Tabernacle in
a position to negotiate. DR.. Tai
mage really was the largest contributor
in the whole matter. In addition to his
check of $1,000, he gave fully 100000,
$4,000 being for back salary. This settle
ment makes Il c Tabernacle's prospects very
bright aud Dr. TalmHge and the church
officials are greatly pleased with the result of
the negotiations.

WOODEN APRoNs

Wooden aprons are recommended
either to cooks OF other women who are
constantly about hot stove. The
aprons may be made from q light
weight, loosely woven wooden, and are
certainly a wise precaution against those
accidents from fire that happen every
few days. At the large stores there are
ready made wooden petticosts, the
cheapest of which are fifty cents, that
may be cut open and used for aprons
They need only be used for cooking
and ironing, and the gingham apron
used at other times. Washed in water
containing little ammonia, they are
as easily clesnsed as aprons of cotton.
