Apply the Electric Needle
Once Too Often.

CHICAGO, Sept. 30.-Belle White, %
years of age. daughter of Benjamin S.
White. wealthy lumberman, died at
Woodstock this morning at 10 o'clock while
under treatment for the removal of facial
blemishes. Death was caused. it is sup
posed, by the use of cocaine to deaden the
pain from the application of an electric
current. which constituted the means Of
treatment.
The operator was DR.. Sophie Santa of
the DR.. Sophie Santa Company. Eliza A.
James. the business partner of DR.. Santa,
was assisting in the operation at the time.
In one hand DR.. Santa held the electric
needle. and in the other sponge saturated
with solution of cocaine. which she ap-
piled at intervals to deaden the pain caused
by the needle. She had almost completed
the treatment, when Miss White gasped
for breath, and before the operator could
assist her she slid from the chair to the
floor dead. Aid was hastily summoned
and restoratives were applied. but without
avail, the young woman having died almost
instantly.
DR.. Santa and her assistant we're locked
up, to be held until the exact cause of the
young woman's death is known. There is
no thought, however, that the death was
the reason of anything but an accident
DR.. Talman. who answered the call for a
physician, described his visit as follows:
