Appleton, Wis, June 1S.-The Ka-

Michael Mccarthy had been seen In
Green Bay since the night of Septem.

leges he was murdered.
The first witness on the stand was
Mrs. Peck of Green Bay, sister of the
accused man. Mrs. Peck declared
that for three months prior to his ar
rest Kabat had made his home with
her and was regular in his habits
having been away from home only
once during the three months.
She testified that one evening Nc.
Carthy called at her home and handed
a bundle of papers including which
she believes to have been the deed
to the Mccarthy farm. She also de-
clared that one morning a stranger
came to the front yard and handed
her 4.year-old daughter a bundle of
papers which he requested to be hand.

Another Saw Mccarthy.
Frank Gritzka of Milwaukee, for.
merly of Green Bay, testified that he
saw Mccarthy one, two or three
weeks before he noticed the first publ
cation of his disappearance Gritz-
ka was unable to state any definite
day or date when he last saw McCar
thy, but 1t is believed the defense
will endeavor to show that he saw
him since he was alleged to have been
murdered.
May Impeaoh Witnesses.
John Denhardt, a Winnebago coun-
ty auctioneer and real estate agent,
declared some time in August he met
Mccarthy at Neenah and the latter at
that time was anxious to sell his
farm, declaring that he wanted to go
to Milwaukee to have his eyes treat

braska.
1t is believed that the prosecution
IS in a position TO impeach several of
the witnesses for the defense. The
attorneys have definitely decided not
to put Kabat on the stand.

A LOBSTER'S LEGS.
The Two Front Ones Are Different
From the ether Eight.

A Holsters legs, all told, are ten in
number, but only eight of these are
largely used for walking. The front
pair or big claws, have been special
lied, as in the crab and most others of
the higher cruStaceans, into prehenSile
organs for catching and crushing the
prey. Their use is obvious. HOLSTERS
feed largely off mOlluskS of various
sorts and other hard shelled marine
animals. In order to be able to break
or crush the shells of these and SO to
get at the softer flesh within they have
acquired such large and very muscular
nippers or pinchers. That is not all,
however. Not only have the two front
legs been differentiated and specialized
from the eight others in this manner
but also, by a rare exception to the
symmetry OF the body, the right claw
has been specialized from the left, each
being intended t0\perfOrm distinct
function. One is q scissors. the other
is mill; one is cutter, the other is a
cracker.
AS Il rule, the right claw is the slen-
derer and longer 1t has toothike pro-
iections or serrated edges on its nip
ping faces, and it is rather adapted for
biting and seFering than for crushing
or grinding. The left claw, on the 9th
er hand, is usually thicker, heavier and
rOunder. It's muscles are more power
full, and in place Of sharp teeth it has
blunt tubercles, or hammers. of differ
ent sizes. 1t acts, in fact, more like
nutcracker than like teeth or saw.
1t is a smashing organ. Nevertheless
you will find it interesting to observe,
by noting the Holsters served to you at
table, that this differentiation has hard
ly as yet become quite constant, for
sometimes it is the right claw that dis
plays the hammerlike nutcracker type
and the left that acts as nipper and
bitter, willie sometimes no difference
occurs at all, both claws alike being
sharp toothed or blunt hammered in the
same specimen.

Marvellous Animals.

The trained animal exhibition in
Gentry Brothers famous shows which
are TO exhibit here on August %, is one
of the wonderful features that sepa-
ratessthis great show from all others
In their big program of circus sensa-
tions, animals of most every kind and
from every cline are shown not only
to have sense, but capacity of educa-
ton truly marvellous. Lions, bears,
zebras, elks, dogs, ponies, and many
other species, act with an almost human
understanding, and demonstrative in a
variety of odd and entertaining ways
that they are endowed with something
more than instinct. The quick intelli-
gence of the horse and pony is beauti-
fully Illustrated. To see the squadrons
of handsome beasts with this great
show drill, dance, speed and even act
is a Fascinating sight. All the per-
forming horses are thoroughbreds and
perfect types from illusrtious ancestry.
No show in this world has half the
horses as the Gentry Brothers carry
and use in their unrivalled shows.
There are more than 500 animals in this
remarkable equine collection. But the
beautiful horses are not the only at
traction among the performing ami
mails. Think of double herd of per-
forming elephants. The Gentry
Brothers carry this many. They have
been taught to do amazing things.
For. instance, play musical instruments
correctly, dance to a lively tune, turn
acrobatic feats, balance, juggln, box,
and actually act out a comedy scene
with humorous spirit. None of the
usual prodding so evident with other
exhibitions of this kind is not required
by the Gentry Brothers performing
elephants, bears, lions, leopards, mon
keys, ponies, dogs and savage beasts
are taught to do the bidding of their
trainers.
The Gentry circus, once a small show,
has grown to be one of the largest in
the world and will be seen here in all
its entirety August %.

Death of Wig yFag. a Bourbon
Bred Horse.


A press despatch from Vienna, Aus :
tria, conveys tn : intelligence that Wig
Wag, the fastest trotting stallion in
Europe, died suddenly from collie on
the morning of August 1. He was a
prohibitive favorite in the Champion
ship OF Europe, to be raced that after
noon, and his death aroused suspicious
of poisoning.
Wig Wag took three-year-old record
of 2 isl at Lexington in 1902 and was
sold to Louis Winans of Brighton, Eng
land, for whom he won the champion
ship Of Europe in 1903, trotting in
2 :13 Clio. The following year he was
secondsto Contralto in the champion
ship race. Last year, although he was
defeated in the championship by Mr..
Winans' other entry, Alta Axworthy,
he made a remarkable showing, win
ming the Prize of New York, Prize of
Stadt Baden, the Mantador Race, the
Inpost Handicap, the Prize of Augar-
ten, and the Prize of Saxenburg.
After Wig Wag won the Inpost Han
dicap, Der Sport of Vienna said: "He
is the best trotting horse now racing in
the world. In this race he trotted
2,610 meters in 3 80 $40. 1t is safe to
say that very few American horses
could go 3-5 miles in a race, from
standing start, on what is practically
half-mile track, at the rate of 2 10 to
the mile. In this race Wig Wag was
officially timed separate 1000 meters
in liz ITO, which is at the rate of
2 :063 for the mile.
In June, A. C. Pennock, wrote this
department as follows: Il believe MIR.
Winans has in Wig Wag one of the
greatest trotters living. Good judges
think a record of :O5 would not be too
much for him over an American track.
He is going to be great sire. We have
a yearling by him from Bachelor Maid
(2:l74) that will be hard to beat
American horsemen will sympathize
with Mr.. Winans in his great loss be-
cause there was a possibility that he
would send Wig Wag TO this country to
race. The foreign system of handicap
ping had placed such an impost on Wig
Wag that he was practically barred from
the Austrian races, with exception of
such as are raced on the American plan.
Mr.. Winans has been playing in hard
luck lately. The death last spring of
Alta Axworthy ~ (2:1O3). winner of
last years championship and a prospec-
tive factor this year, was sad blow to
him.
1t is to be hoped that Wig Wag trans
mitted some of his sterling qualities to
his foals and that his fame may be con-
tinued through them. He made a sea-
son last spring in the stud Of the Aus
trian government.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-

tachian Tube When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound of
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
