POISONED BY CORPSE
Two Medical Students at the
Davidson Medical College
Near Death.
Especial to the News and Observer.)

Charlotte, n. Co. Jan. 21.-As the re-
suit of infection from the dissection of a
cadaver, two students of the North Caro-
lima Medical College at Davidson arc in
a critical condition and their deaths is
expected momentarily. The unfortunate
students are j. NJ. Boyce, of B~lacksburg,
S. c., and O. r. Mcleod. of Robson
county this State.
Thursday these young men, With others
in their class, dissected a subject for
study. Boyce accidentally pricked his
finger with one Of the sharp instruments
used in the dissection. while Mcleod is
supposed to have had some slight abra-
sion on his hand. In tWenty-four hours
symptoms of septacaemia developed and
now the young men are lying at the
point of death.
Today DR.. Munroe assisted DR.. Strong,
of this city, gave the" patients the treat
ment which is being experimental with

first treatment caused a rally in the con-
dition of the patients, but it is believed
it was given too late and the doctors
have about abandoned hope, though they
are still ~persevering with the formalin.

HOUSE LEADERS GET
A TASTE OF DEFEAT
Minority Coinage Bill for the
Philippines Wins.
H A fAVORS THIS BILL
And Many Republicans Unite With the Demo-
Gratis to Push it Through the Hcuse---
The Senate Discusses the State
hood Measure.
(By the Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-The House lead
ers went down to signal defeat today
when the House, by a vote of 146 to 12S
rejected the Philippine Coinage Bill re-
ported by the Insular Affairs Committee
and adopted the substitute by the min
ority under the leadership Of Mr.. Jones,
of Virginia, for the Introduction OF
American currency and the American
coinage system in the islands.
The Insular Committee includes in Its
membership the chairman of the most
powerful committees of the House, Mr..
Cannon, chairman of the Appropriations.
Mr.. Hit, chairman of Foreign Affairs;
Mr.. Payne, chairman of Ways and Means;
MI. Hepburn, chairman of Interstate
Commerce. and Mr.. Tawney, chairman of
the Committee on Expositions. They re-
ported a bill to establish the gold stand
ard in the islands, and to authorize the
coinage Of silver pesos of 416 grains, to
be made legal tender at the rate of two
pesos for one gold dollar. The majority
members made a gallant fight for their
bill, but a considerable number Of Re-
publicans, % on the final vote, under the
Lead of Mr.. Hit, of Connecticut; Mr..
Fowler, of New Jersey, and Mr.. Mccall,
of Massachusetts, joined with the Demo-
Gratis and carried through the substi-
tute. The fact that SECRETARY Shaw
and other high treasury officials were
quoted on the foor as favoring the sub
s%titute, aided the overthrow of the COM
mittec bill. Their opinions were ad-
vanced as against those of Governor Taft
and other members of the Philippine
Commission.
The substitute passed provides that the
lawful money of the United States shall
be legal tender in the Philippines. and
declares the coinage laws of the United
States to be in full force there. 1t pro-
vides for the redemption of the Mexican
and Spanish silver at their bullion
value. After six months no coin except
that of the United States shall be legal
tender. The bill provides for re-coinage
of Philippine silver.
The Alaska Delegate Bill was taken up
and was supported by Mr.. Cushman
(Republican) of Washington. Mr.. WOotten
Oemocrat), of Texas. and Mr.. Sulzer,
Democra) of New York, and opposed
by Mr.. Warner, (Republican) of Illinois.

The waist Is made over a fitted lining

Both fronts and back are shirred to

folds between that point and the waist
line. The bertha Is arranged over the
waist on indicated lines, and is finished,
at its edges. with narrow bands of the
material held by fancy stitches and
Is further ornamented with small orna-
ments of crochet. The sleeves are
shirred to fit the upper arms snugly
and form soft fulness above and the
dropping puffs of fashion to the wrists,
where they are held by narrow cuffs,
but can be made in elbow length If pre-
rerred. When transparent effect Is
sought the lining is cut away beneath
the yoke and omitted from the sleeves.

SENSE OF HEARING,

AS the sense of sight gives rise to
devotional exercises, so also does the
sense of hearing. The holy Moslem
must bend prayerful ear to the cries
of the muezzln during the first two
sentences, and when the summons TO
prayer Is over he must rub his eyes
with his fingers. The true believer
whenever he hears the Sureh Sujdeh
read In the Koran, must PROSTATE him
self and repeat the words after the
reader. He must also recite a given
prayer ON hearing the chirping of Ger.
tain birds or the cries of certain ami.
mails. IL he hear a Moslem sneeze he
must say, peace be with theew II
the sneeze be repeated, he must ex-
claim. "Mayest thou be curedr' II he
sneeze himself he must read n few
verses OF the Koran; but. IL Kafir
sneeze, the response must be expressed
In the wish to see him tread "the
straight path"
Imam Hussein has laid down twelve
rules TO be observed at meal times.
The first four are essential to the
salvation OF all true Moslems. They
must not forget to say ''Bismillah' be-
fore tasting each dish; they must re-
frain from eating Of the forbidden vi
ands; they must end by returning
thanks to God. and they should assure.
themselves that the food laid before
them has been bought with money OBJ

An Authentic Centennrian

Last Saturday there died at st
Peters Port, Guernsey. the "oldest
English woman" Mrs. Margaret Anne
Nevc. at the extraordinary age OF III
years Mrs. Ncve was born on May
Is, 1872, and was n good deal more
than "centenarlan." AS rule,
English men and women who have at.
tained to the rare Ggc of a hundred
years have possessed few other claims
to distinction. They have belonged to
classes that have seen little and dong
little; often. indeed, tie exact date oi
their birth mas been uncertain. They
may have died aged 101, or 1O3 or any.
thing over (or perhaps less than 100
years. In the "slmple annals OF the
poor" the baptismal certificate Is not
always treasured. But the case of
Mrs. Neve is different.
There is no doubt whatever that she
was born in 1892. and during the 110
years that has elapsed since her birth
she has seen and done more than most
English women. When she was ten
years old she was sent by sailing boat
TO a school at Bristol. kept by ladies
whose brothers were friends of
Southey. De Quincy and Colerldge,
Her schoolmlstresses numbered among
their acQuantances Hannah More. Sir
Humphrey Davy. Charles Lamb and
HCzl.tt She herself. when newly mar.
RED. visited the field OF Waterloo
where she picked up belt buckle Of
ono Of the dead of the Imperial Guard.
During her married life of twenty-five
years and in her widowhood she had
travelled through the length and
breadth of Europe; ard actually at the
age of ninety-twenty years ago-she
set out for Cracow to see the memorial
erected to Koscius2ko. She walked to
and from church regularly for years
after her hundredth birthday, and read
the Bible in large print almost up to the
day of her death, and It was only in
November last that her faculties began
to fail her. For forty years, therefore,
after she had passed the threescoro
years and ten which are the allotted
span of mans life, she was able to do
what many men and women to-day are
unable to do at half her age.-Lonlon

with matters of social etiquette. They
are kept by most Mohammedans in
polite society and run as follows: Ono

but should partake only of such dishes
as are within ones reach one should
not overload ones mouth. nor forges
to mastlcate the food thoroughly; and
one should keep the eyes downcast and
the tongue silent.
1t is n tradition that washing the
hands before meals will materially
help the true Moslem to grow rich and
be the means of delivering him from all
diseases. If he rubs his eyes immedt
ately after the ablution they will never
be sore. The left hand must not be
used in eating unless the right be dis
abled. When drinking water he must
sit down and take three draughts.
Most OF the Mohammedans use odd

clay, which have two orifices; the one
at the top is called the mouth" and
