HOW GILBERT LOST OUT.
Experience in the Coal Mine Was a
Bitter One.


Bitter One.
The death Of the Industry murder

tiary was the result OF his own bad
judgment as to bis chances Of escape.
In the penitentiary at Lansing Gil.
bert was put to work in the coal mine.
At times his mind-what he had-has
gone wrong and at such times be has
been kept out Of the mine. This hap
pened recently, but upon Gilbert's
begging to be allowed to go to work
in the mine again he was allowed to
do so. That was last week. On Sat-
urday be failed to come out Of the
mine with the other prisoners. The
fact was reported and Warden JeEett
sent searching parties through the
mine to search .or him, but be was
not found. The report got out that
be had escaped in some way, but Sat-
urdsy morning be was found In the
mine hiding 10 q hole under some

bad been without food during all the
time be had been in the mine, and be
was SO weak that be was barely able
to talk. He was brought out Of the
mine and an attempt was made to
save his life, but be died that night.

DONATE SKIN TO
SAVE WOMAN'S LIFE

WALLA WALLA, May 49, = Eight
weeks ago Mrs. William Nave of
this city had one-fourth of her skin de-
stroyed by being burned by lamp ex-
plosion, and has suffered torture ever
since. An appeal for skin to graft has
been answered by over dozen persons,
among them being the sister superior of
st. Mary's hospital, the Misses Keylor,
MeCorquodale and Bean and Mrs. Pelle-
silver, nurses at the hospital, and Barney
knagg, who alone has given sixteen pieces
of cuticle
At present but one-tenth enough skin
has been furnished, and unless the second
appeal is generously responded to the
woman will die.
The present operation is the largest of
the kind ever attempted in the Northwest
and the physicians say it will require at
least two weeks to cover the burned sur
face if the donations of cuticle are made.
