The principle Of cataphOresis, or the
driving Of foreign substances into anil
nal tissue by means Of electric cur
rents, has been adopted, says the BOs-
ton Journal of Commerce, with great
success in both medical and dental
work. In these capacities 1t Is EN-
ployed principally in conjunction with
cocaine or some other anaesthetic for
the purpose of rendering the flesh or
the tooth to be operated upon insensi-
bic to pain. The benumbing solution
is forced into the tissue and even into
the Obdurate sensitive dentine of the
tooth, until no sensation whatever is
possible for the time being in the re-
giOn under treatment. A provision
merchant OF Rio Janiero has suggested
an application of this method TO the
preparation of meat. He immerses
the meat to be preserved in a 80 per
cent solution Of common salt, and pass
es through the whole a continuous cur
rent of electricity. In from ten to
twelve hours The sailing is said to DO
complete and the meat taken out of
the bath and hung up to dry. Good
results were obtained in working a
bath of 5000 liters of lime, in which
1000 Silos of meat were immersed;
current of 100 amperas at an electro
motive force Of eight volts was used
in this bath. The electrodes must
be of platinum, since If other materials,
such as zinc or iron, were used, the
metal salts formed would be injurious

Bearded Mer.

Pike county, Mo-, is famous for its
long bearded men. Valentine Tapley
Of Spencerburg has a beard nine feet
two inches in length, and a long Sec
ton of it lies on the ground when he
drops it to the floor while standing.
The second longest beard in the world
is that owned by Elijah Gates, VINO
lives at Curryyille, in the same town
ship of Spencer in which Mr.. Tapley
lives and moves and has his whiskers
Mr.. Gates has for years conducted a
large and thriving business as a mer-
chant in the village Of Curryville, on
the Chicago and Alton Railroad. He
was born in Kentucky in 1888, and is
well-preserved, cheerful, affable gen
tleman, prominent in all good works in
his neighborhOod. He Is a broad
ahouldered, heavy-set man about five
feet seven inches in stature and weighs
about $50 pounds. He is a brunette,
and his beard, which is now over eight
feet long, is black as the ravens wing
and soft as silk. 1t is growing rapidly
and it is thought that he will yet over
take Taply, as his beard got later
start than Valentines. Perhaps the
reason why his is finer is because he
has spent most Of his life indoors.
Mr. Gates went from the State Of
Kentucky with the modern argonauts
TO California during the gold fever and
finally landed in the historic county

FALLS VILLAGE TRAGEDY.
POstTaster's Wife and n Preacher's
Son Found Dead i'm a Dining Room.

FALLS VILLAGE, Conn, Feb. 20. -
When he awoke this morning the ten-year-
old son of Postmaster Walter Chaplin found
the corpse of his mother in the dining room
Of their home and nearby the dead body
of Charles Mead. the son of Rev. H. z.
Mead, formerly Of Falls Village, but now
of Scotland, Conn. Some distance
away was a revolver with several
chambers empty. Mr. Chaplin had
confided the administration OF the postofiice
to his wife as his duties as superintendent
of hatcheries at Sheffield, Conn, kept him
occupied there a large part of the time.
Mrs. Chaplin was supposed to be home
spending the night alone with her child,
Joseph. When the latter arose this morn
ing he found the door blocked and forcing
it discovered his mothers dead body lying
against it. Mr.. Chaplin arrived hour lat
er to spend Sunday and the news almost
prostrated him. He refused TO talk about
the affair.
Mead was thirty years old and had been
q frequent caller on Mrs. Chaplin, who was
about twenty-eight.
Coroner Higgins began an investigation
about noon. 1t showed that while there
were two bullet wounds In Meads head
there was but one in the forehead of Mrs.
Chaplin. The revolver was found nearer TO
Mrs. Chapn's body than Mead's. 1t was
the kept by Mrs Chaplin in the post
office and at her house during the frequent
absences of her husband. Mrs. Chaplin was
attired in her night dress, while the dead
man was in his street clothes; his overcoat
and hat. however. having been placed upon
chair in the dining room. 1t is thought
that the shooting occurred at about 2
O'Clock in the morning. inasmuch as neither
body was rigidiy cold. Coroner Higgins
has not completed his investigation. but
many accept the theory that Mead went to
the house, an undesred visitor. that he
broke in, and Mrs. Chaplin. in order TO pro-
tect herself shot him and subsequently
killed herself. Mrs. Chaplin the daugh-
ter of Sidney Morris, a lifelong resident of
Falls Village and the head of well-known
family.
Coroner Higgins said tonight: 81 have
as yet rendered no verdict in the case and
will probably not do so until the early part
of next week. L have no hesitancy, how
ever, in stating that unless there are new
developments / shall report TO the Superior
Court clerk that Mrs. Chaplin met her
death at the hands of Charles F. Mead and
that the latter killed himself. l am prac-
tically convinced that the man shot the
woman twice and then killed himself.
Mead bore an unsavory reputation and we
practically concluded that he went to the
Chaplin residence because he was infatuat-
ed with Mrs. Chaplin, and because he was
thwarted in certain % rposes committed the
crime of murder ana suicide
