UNDERTAKER OF GENIUS.
dents Out of an UaplsaAant Situation.

He Is 6 smart man, is that under taker. Say. he's got brain in his skull sure"
 This is the way fn which students at the College of Physicians and Sur geons on the West side express their admiration for certain undertaken who got them out of en unpleasant predicament, reports the Inter Ocean.
 Patrick McAndrews, who lived somewhere near State and Forty-Seo- ond streets, WAS admitted to the coun- ty hospital about three weeks ago, suffering from a complication of dis eases. He died soon after reaching the white cot in the hopeless" ward, and his body was duly laid away to await the coming of his relatives. Fifteen days passed, and nobody came to call for the corpse of Patrick Nc Andrews. Then, as is the custom, the body was given to the College of Physicians and Surgeons, and ar engagements were planned for dis section
 The lecture for which the dead Me Andrews was to furnish material called for the head, chest and arms of an adult male. Attendants in charge of the subjects" severed McAndrews' body at the waist. and took the up- per half to the dissecting-room. Here the ghAstly section of the dead hu- manity was laid upon the table, GOV Shn and loft tn ayuaif the coming of the class and lecturer. The lower half of the body was i'm mediately burned. and in two hours time all that remained of McAndrews was the half upon the table, waiting for the scalpel.
 Just as the lecture was beginning word was brought that McAndrews' relatives had appeared and claimed the body. An understaker from State and Forty-first street was already at the door, and preparations were be- ing made for the funeral at McAn- drews' home. No objection was made by the college authorities to the prompt surrender of the body. but thorough search failed to locate the lower half of the remains. The at tendant who had burned the missing portion told what he had done. and there was consternation around the college.
 At this point the ingenious under taker came to the rescue. "Give me the upper half of the body" said he. "Then get me about 80 pounds of bricks" The bricks were brought and the lower part of the coffin was filled with them. McAndrews' upper section was put in place, and the un- dertaker drove away.
 A day later McAndrews' funeral took place with all propriety, and none but the undertaken and those who helped him at the college knew just what the coffin contained. Out on the West side, however, where stu dents congregate, the half man" is talked about, and much admiration is expressed for the genius of the under taker.

COMET eRoTTo AND GRILL ROOM.
A New, Up to Date Refreshment h. stitution for Prescott to
 Open Soon.

Messrs. Vanderbelt & Sullivan will open their new Comet Grotto and Grill Rooms in the basement of the Lawler block on Saturday, February Is. Nothing like this institution has ever been attempted in Prescott be- fore, for the refreshment of the inner man.
 The main hall which extends the entire length of the building is com modious, well lighted and heated and will be supplied with tables where re- treatments, both liquid and solid will be served. In connection with this there will be a lunch counter, from which all kinds of imported and do- mestic cheese, and all kinds of fish will be served. In the rear of this room, but screened from it, will be a dining room with eight tables capable of accommodating thirty persons at the same time Three private club rooms are also provided in connec- ton with this main hall.
 The bar is a massive and handsome affair, the finest ever brought to Pres eott, and the other fixtures and fur nishings are in keeping with it, all of them being furnished by the Bruns- wick-Balke company.
 The culinary department is entirely separate from the saloon part, and will be under the management of Victor Benoit. an experienced chef, formerly of Hotel Brewster, San Diego, and of Coronado Beach hotel. The kitchen is a marvel in itself, being fitted up in splendid style, with a large range, broiler, etc, and every thing complete for quick service.
 There are three private dining rooms, two of them being suited for small parties and the other a regular banquet room capable of accommo- dating a large party. Mir. Benoit proposes to have this branch of the institution always stocked with the choicest and best articles of food that can be procured, while the prices will be reasonable and within the reach of all, making it possible for one to get good, well cooked meal at the ordinary price charged elsewhere, with the ad itional advantage of procuring one more elaborate but at a reasonable price.
 As stated, this magnificent place will be thrown open to the public on Saturday, although it will be lighted up and open for inspection of all who wish to see it on Fridry evening.

Persons who suffer from indigestion cannot expect to live long, because they cannot eat the food required to nourish the body and the products of the undigested foods they do eat poison the blood. It is important to cure indigestion as soon as possible, and the best method of doing this is to use the preparation known as Ko- dol Dyspepsia Cure. It digests what you eat and restores all the digestive organs to perfect health. W. W. Ross and Brisley Drug Co.
