WAS HE ASSAULTED?
Mysterious Case of Chris George, a
14Year-OId Boy.

Chris George, the boy who was found
by the side of the Rock Island switch
at the brick yards with his skull crush
ed, has been operated on at StormOnt
hospital The depressed bone was rails
ed, and today he is at times in a semi
conscious condition. However, the ply
sicians do not think he can recover.
The cause of the boys injury is a
mystery. There were no railroad cars
near the place where he was found, and
no building or natural eminence from
which he could have fallen. The skull
was badly crushed, and there is some
suspicion that it was done by a blow.
The boy is but IA years of age, and
has no enemies as far as known.

Charles Leiby. an inventor, died at
his home in this city yesterday. He
had only recently discovered and per
fected the lost art of tempering copper
and welding it with steel. This process
was known to the people of ancient
Egypt but was afterward lost and has
been sought for in vain for hundreds of
years.
Leiby was a blacksmith and expert
mented with copper for years. and only
last year hit upon the secret for which
he had been seeking He would never
disclose the process to anyone. That
he was able to temper copper to any de-
gree OF hardness and to successfully
weld it with steel is beyond question
He made a number of chisels and other
tools which were examined by experts
and pronounced equal to any made of
steel He also made several dnely-fin-
fshed hammers of various Sizes some
Of them entirely of copper, others of
steel with copper face He used only
a common blacksmith's forge in tenn
peTing the copper or doing the welding,
but would never allow any one to wit
ness the process, the secret of which
It is believed persisted with him.

Grated Negro Skin Turns White.

I was injured in a railroad wreck on

L was a fireman on a. passenger train

rapid rate when my engine left the

stuck to our engine and she turned over
and went down a fOrty-foot hill and
l was badly injured and the engineer
was killed I was sca1ded on the left
shoulder, just under the shoulder blade,
and all healed except a place about five
inches square. which refused to heal.
DR.. Jordan clipped about sixty pieces
off my arm, about an eighth of an inch
square. and would graft in some each
day. You could see the little hbres run
out from patches of skin in twenty
four hours like fine cotton strings.
