BOULLE MARQUETRY AT WIND
SOR CA SITE

The peculiar kind of veneered work
with which Boulle's name is associated
is composed of tortoiseshell and thin
brass, to which was sometimes added
ivory and enamel metal. In his early
work, of which Windsor possesses some
interesting pieces, added to the collec-
ton of George w.. the tortoiseshell is
left in it's natural COLOR in the later
specimens it is fastened on gilt or YER
million ground. The method of fastening
is by gluing to an oak backing, and
mailing with small brass nails whose
heads are afterward fooled down so as
to be level with the surrounding surface.
Boulle, who was an educated sculptor,
added as a proper finish to his brass
marquetry work, cast and chased brass
feet, edgings, supports, and even figures
in full relief. Again. in his later work,
of clocks, cabinets, pedestals, &C.. at
Windsor we find not only the brass of
the marQuetry chased and engraved, but
ornaments of brass in high relief are
added to enrich the surface, and so far
as effect goes, with the most perfect sue
cess.
The method of making Boulle mar
quetry is by fastening two or more
plates of the different materials togeth-
err, and then saving out the design with
fretsaw. BY this means an equal
number of figured and hollow pieces are
obtained by one saving, and the designs
can be counter-changed by using either
material for ground or pattern alter
nately. Boulles original work, when in
the market at all, commands excessively
high prices, as much as ten thousand
pounds having been paid at auction for
a cabinet within recent years.-Pall Mall
Magazine.

Duffy Kenzell, of South Norwalk, is
in Milford for week visiting with her

head of Broad street.
Quite large audience enjoyed the en-
tertainment given by the Alonzo Hatch
company in the Town Hall Wednesday
evening. No entertainment of this kind
has ever been given in Milford before,
and the audience was very liberal with
their applause, notably so when pic
ture of the Olympia was shown on the
screen and when Admiral Deweys face
was shown. Mrs. W. S. Putney, who
was largely instrumental in securing the
company for the Ladies' Aid society of

SODA IN HUMAN BODIES
A Very Much Needed Work err

Very delicate particles of soda ap-
pear in field grains such as used by
mankind.
The use made of natural soda or
Sodium Sulphate is to oxidize the
sugar in the body, thereby decom-
posing it and making 1t suitable for
rebuilding the cells and preserving the
bile and pancreatic juices at normal
consistency.
When a person fails to use food
containing this important little
worker, the sugar in the body is not
properly cared for and seeks escape
through the kidneys, causing Diabe-
ties. A lack Of the Sodium Sulphate
is also shown by biliousness, for the
bile becomes thick when it's little gov
ernor is absent Sodium Sulphate is
not readily taken up by the body when
given as drug, but is quickly alb
sorbed when furnished in Natures way
as stored in food, and in that way it
is found in GrapeNuts, the most sci
entifically prepared food made by man.
Why? Because in Grape Nuts the
pure natural elements needed by man
are preserved and presented fresh from
Natures own laboratory

KING OF ETHIOPIA AND TIL

KING Oh ethiopia AND The
TOYS.
Formerly very little sufficed to enter
tain Menelek, and it is even related that
the first sugar-loaf which was presented
to him caused him ecstacies of pleasure,
and that he and his consort Were dis
covered with that blessed product of civ
ilization between them, licking it vigor-
ously. But those good times are past !;
Europeans have brought him so many
toys that he has become critical. When
a new traveller is announced he awaits
with impatience the customary present,
trying to find out beforehand whether it
is something new, in which case the au-
dience is speedily granted. He is much
interested in all machinery, which, in
Guiding watches, he invariably takes to
pieces. Sometimes he deigns to be pres
ent at the unpacking of the travellers
boxes and to appropriate any little OBJ
ject that pleases him. Such informal
examinations amuse him vastly. IF
had not been king" he remarks at
times, II should like to have been a
custom house officer. "-Vicomte de Pom

lott will appear at the Hyperion this
afternoon and evening when they will
present for the first time in New Haven
two plays, The Cowboy and the Lady"
and Nathan Hale" both from the pen
of Clyde Fitch. The greater interest is
possibly attached to the presentation of
The Cowboy and the Lady" at the af-
ternoon performance. This piece was
first presented during Mr.. Goodwin
engagement at the Chestnut street op-
era house in Philadelphia and its sue
cess was so instantaneous that it was
Immediately selected as the piece de re-
sistance for Mr.. Goodwin's London sea-
son, which begins week after next at
the Duke of York's theater, and will
be a feature of Mr.. Goodwin's next
American play. AS might be expected,
the sale of seats has been phenomenal.
The desire to see both the Cowboy and
the Lady and Nathan Hale" is by no
means confined to New Haven, but
many theater parties have been gotten
up from many of the surrounding
towns.
Both plays are exciting great public
interest and good houses are already
assured. Sale of seats now open. Prices

CASE NOT TRIED
Defence Had Asked for POStpOnement Be-
fore HyStery Was UnsarthGd.
POLICE TALK OF CROOKED WORK
They Claim to Have Information That
Gambler Made a Proposition
to the Girl to Skip
Town for $500

Lula Grest, the main witness in the
Holloway case, has suddenly disappeared
and no trace of her can be found. She left
her boarding house in Twentieth street,
between Third and Fourth avenues, about
3 o'clock Thursday afternoon and since
then nothing has been heard of her where
abouts.
The trial of the Holloway case was set
o'clock yesterday afternoon and the defense
asked for a continuance, which was
granted. Later it was discovered that
Lula Grelst was missing. When this fact
was made known to the defense it is said
that they returned to police headquarters
and were anxious for trial, notwithstand-
ing their former request for a continuance.
Chief Austin says that without the evil
dence of the Greist woman it will be a
hard matter to convict DR.. Holloway. She
is the girl upon whom the criminal opera
ton is alleged to have been performed and
it is said by the police that she had agreed
to tell all she knew about the case.
When the crime first came to light she
is alleged to have told Chief Austin that
DR.. Holloway had done the work for a
stipulated sum. When the case was called
for trial ten days later it was reported
that Lula Greist was too i'll to appear in
court and the case was continued until
yesterday afternoon at o'clock. On the
day previous the girl disappeared.
Suspect Crooked Work
The authorities are keeping very quiet
the subject, but they intimate in con-
versation that some crooked work has been
done.
Chief Austin said yesterday afternoon
that less than a week ago a well-known
gambler called on Miss CREST and in
formed her that he could get her $500 to
leave town. At the time it is said she re-
fused to agree to any such arrangement.
1t is now suspected that this was merely
blind to throw the officers off the track
and prevent them from watching her.
Two weeks ago, Mrs, Griest, the mother
of the girl, arrived in the city and she has
been staying with her daughter ever since
During the first of this week it was pro-
posd that the girl be sent to the Mercy
Home. Both the mother and daughter
readily acquiesced in the plan and Mrs.
Griest seemed to be especially happy over
the prospect Everything had been ar
ranged for them to go to the Mercy Home
on Thursday afternoon. They left the
boarding house between 2 and o'clock
presumably for that place. but since then
the couple has as completely disappeared
as if the earth mad opened and swallowed
them up.
Chief of Police Austin was notified YES
terday morning that the women had not
arrived al the Mercy Home and he at once
became suspicious that thew had left town
He waited patiently, however, until the
