VIII Manning. charged with poison
ing his wife near Celeste.
Following dramatic offer of
Judge VI. ID. Wood to have VIII Man

ed death in "A few minutes. Into an
other frog water was injected without
appreciable effect. In like manner a
small portion of poison from the crys-
tails found by the chemist in his an
alysis of the contents of the stomach
of the dead woman was administered
10 frog, producing death much
more quickly than did that from the
poison obtained at the drug store.
The frog that had been given an
injection of water was dosed with a
solution of the crystal poison devel-
oped by the chemical analysis and
was soon thrown into commissions
and died.
The demonstration was made right
in view of the jury and spectators
and held the breathless attention of
all. Later in the afternoon the jury
returned verdict, assessing the
death penalty.

N. J. Herald, or J. d. Meyer,

That he Is the man who arrived I'm

He claimed to be a drummer, and
carried no baggage except book of
cigar label samples. He checked his
overcoat and book of samples, get
ting checks % and 33. tie was miss
ed yesterday and today.
This afternoon telephone mes
sage was received from Joppa that a
man had been caught floating in the
river there with two New Richmond
Hotel checks in his pocket They
were Nos. "a and 80.
The man was the same one giving
the name here as Meyer. He had APP
parently not been in the water long
some Of the papers in his pocket not
even being soaked through. His
body bore no marks of violence.
II was towed to shore and the
coioner at Metropolis sent for.
Papers In the mans pocket con
aimed the of r. J. Herald. of
st. Joseph. Mo-. and also an accident
Insurance policy for $4,000 with the
same name.
II seems from that, that the name
he gave here was fictitious. He was
about 35 years old. smooth shaven,
and weighed about $50 pounds. The
name of the firm on the book of ci-
gar label samples is J. j. Wiedmann,
Clark avenue, ST. Louis.
Nothing is known of how he met
his death. and Il Is not understood
how he could have been In the water
as long as he is supposed to have
been there, and his papers not be
thoroughly soaked. His body in 9TH
cr ways indicated that IL had not been
in The water long.
II IL believed here that he started
to Cairo yesterday ON the excursion
boat. ]. s., but how he came 20 be
floating by Joppa today is unexplain-
ed. unless he fell of last night just
before the boat reached Paducah, and
drowned.
The authorities at Joppa are so
confident that his name is Herald
that they have wired his relatives at
81. Joseph what disposition to make
OF the body.
