Steel was a corpulent prodigy. In her

A Curious Accident at salerno.

A curious accident happened the other
day at Salerno. In the prison of that
town is kept the old Bourbon guillotine.
whose last victim was Luigi de Malta,
one of the heads of the revolution of
1913, who was decapitated in 1852. The
same machine was made ready for Nico-
terra and his companions, and, expecting
his sentence, Nicotera gave the execu-
toner francs to dispatch him quickly.
Fortunately these sentences were not
carried out The other day, then, gem
tleman, whose name was not found out,
went to the prison and insisted on see
ing the old guillotine, no doubt regarding
it as a historic curiosity. His wish
was satisfied by the director, after which
the stranger went away. But a jaiIer
named Coute, who had accompanied him,
wanted to see how the machine worked,
and unfortunately put his hand under
the knife just as it descended. His fn-
gers were all cut off, and he was seized
with lockjaw. At the hospital to which
he was taken the doctors are doubtful Of
