Of a Chinese coolie who had 3been found

He had not an ounce of flesh on him.
His bones were merely covered with
skin. The only possible explanation of
his being alive after the Fast of five
months is given by medical experts,
who say that the man must have been
in. state Of coma or trance thruout
the period.
The story is told in detail by the
South African News. On April IL last

by DR.. Curry in the death certificate,
cold age, weak heart, diarrohea, and
mental worry Following this Pat

Without Patrick's knowledge, new
and hitherto unpublished evidence has
forged signatures, which a Justice of

who say that it all depends on where
the sandwich is made and how much
it costs.

WIFE FORGIVES;
COURT MERC|FUL
CSEREPES TO RECEIVE LIGHT
SENTENCE
Hungarian Nurseryman Who Wounded
His Wife and Attempted to COM
init Suicide Will Plead Guilty
to Lesser Offense

Michael Scerepes, a Hungarian nur-
seryman, charged with having attempt
ed to murder his wife, will this morning
be taken before Judge Smith of depart
ment one of the superior court and
there allowed to plead guilty to the
lesser offense of assault with deadly
weapon.
The penalty for the offense to which
Sserepes will plead guilty is imprison-
ment for not less than one and not
more than fourteen years, and it is
understood a recommendation for
mercy will be entered by the district
attorney.
Cserepes shot his wife on the morn
ing of May "a after he had called her
to the front door of her home on East
FOrtieth street. The couple had been
having trouble for the past three years
and shortly before the shooting
Cserepes had left his home and re-
mained away.
1t is alleged that he wept careful
watch on the house, and at last went
to his home and called his wife to the
door.
Marie, you have been keeping COM
pany with too many men of late and
will have to kill you to save you
and me from dishonor," the Hungarian
is alleged to have said, and before other
inmates of the house could interfere he
drew a revolver and fired several shots
at his wife, two of which took effect,
and the woman recovered only after
the most careful nursing
After shooting his wife Ccerepes shot
himself in the mouth. He abs suffered
fearfully from his injuries and has been
in the county hospital most of the time.
Yesterday his case was to have been
called for trial and his sentence prob
ably would have been a severe one,
but, after consultation with the
officers, Deputy District Attorney Johh
North decided to allow the man to plead
guilty to the lesser charge. 1t is stated
that Mrs. Cserepes has forgiven her
husband, and this fact, in addition to
the poor condition of Cserepes, led the
prosecutors to take a merciful view of
the case.
