The accident was the result OF the en-
tanglement Of a banner in the wires on
which It was strung. from the roof Of the
Millers Hotel. at Meserole street and
Montrose avenue. The wind blew the ban
ner in among the wires so as to hide the
announcement that La Savoie Pleasure

members Of the club, Slinbach and Weick.
volunteered to free the banner. and for
that purpose went up to the roof of Mil
ler's place.
Unknown to any one, the wires support
ing the banner had become crossed with
live" electric wire. Slinbach grasped the
banner wire. The instant he did SO he fell

UNEARTHED PETR1F1ED BODY.
Woman Had Been Buried Eleven
Years

BALTIMORE. October 4-The petrified
body of woman was unearthed Wednes-
day in st. Alphonsus' cemetery by an I'M
dertaker who had been engaged by the rela-
tives of the dead woman to remove the
body to the Holy Redeemer cemetery in or
der that it might rest by the side Of that Of
her husband.
Notwithstanding that the body had been
buried for eleven years it was In excellent
state Of preservation and every feature was
distinct. A great number of persons viewed
1t, among them being Mr.. Frank Cvach, an
undertaken, Ashland avenue near Wolfe
street.
In removing bodies from the same ceme-
terry last fall Mr.. Cvach found several of
them petrifed.
In speaking Of the petrifcation of the
bodies, Mr.. Cvach said yesterday:
1T Is due. in my opinion, to some pecu-
liar substance in the soil Of one section of
the cemetery. Strangers Row. part laid
off for those who do not have lots. is the
only place where any petrihed bodies have
been found.
The woman who was reburied Wednes-
day was undoubtedly petrifed She was
well preserved. with every feature easily
recognizable. In life she probably weighed
125 pounds, while the body which was re-
buried weighed at least 800 pounds
"An autopsy on one of these petrifled
bodies would be interesting and Instructive
to the medical world, in my opinion"

Delicate, weak, nervous women
should especially shun the use OF al
coholic medicines which, from their
stimulating and exhilarating effects,
may seem, for a time, to do good,
but which, from the inevitable ef-
fects of the alcohol in shrinking up
the red corpuscles OF the blood, are
sure to do great and lasting harm in
the long run. Besides they beget
craving for stimulants which is most
deplorable.

strengthening effects can follow the
