'PETR|F|ES ANIMALS,
Chemist Says He Can Turn Or
 ganic Substances Into Stone.
CHEMICAL BASIS OF PROCESS
Comes to New York to Show Ameri- can Scientific Men What He Can Do.
 Secret Discovered by the Merest
 Accident, He Says.


 Accident, He Says.
 New York, Sept. 16.-Agostino Giu- scope Crosse, chemist of Vercelli. Italy, now stopping at r St. Luke's place, declares he has found way to turn organic substances into stone. Crosse arrived here on Saturday on the steamer Re d'Italia and wants to stay long enough to convince the sci entific men of this country that his discovery Is practical.
 The chemist has brought with him several substances upon which he has tried his process, the basis of which is chemical, the nature of which he holds a profound secret. Crosse dis covered 1t by the merest accident. Fourteen years ago, while he was in Peru, he had occasion to send a case of eggs to Ecuador. He had no way of refrigerating the consignment and began experimenting with preserva- tives. He bored tiny holes in the eggs and tried injecting various chem icals. None seemed to accomplish the work. In trying one powerful drug he injected a small quantity in several eggs and a few hours later found every one of them as hard as rock. He tried to break the shells, but could not make the slightest dent.
 Can Petrify Animals. ho1 ha hnforn O O light and was surprised to find that the yolk and white of each one were as perfect as before petrification. He continued his experiments on beef and vegetables. The result was the same with each trial. No matter how soft the original substance, it was convert ed into stone.
 The chemist went back to Vercelli and before gathering of doctors at the Hospital Marriziano gave series of demonstrations. The body of dog was petrifed in standing position, and | the animal was made to look as nat ural as life. Beetles, frogs, snakes and other things were put through tlS pEOCeSS tHu dlttI DcluE pClllhSN retained their lifelike appearance. l In each instance the chemist inocu- lated the specimen with small quan- tity of the mysterious drug by means of hypodermic syringe Crosse was 5always careful that the spectators should not see the chemical. When- ever he used it he went behind a screen, then brought the specimen out and allowed the doctors to watch the process of petrification as it went on.
 Crosse says it takes about three hours. He has among his specimens here chicken that was petrified, wings and all. This. he says. was done three years ago The chicken looks about as it would in the barnyard. Its eyes have their original luster, and every detail is perfect.
 Tried on Human Body.
 "By my process" said Crosse, 'T will be able to preserve animals ex- \actly as they appear in life. It can Ipetrify an elephant as easily as tiny bug It is all done the same way by the use of the chemical and the hypo- dermic syringe.
 q have tried the experiment on hu- man legs and arms. and the result has been perfect. While have not tried to petrify any large bodies, such as those of horses or elephants. do not think it would require more than five or six hours at the most"

BISHOP ACCUSES MRS. EDD '
Rev. H. C. Morrison Has Supreme Contempt For Christian Scientist.

Frankfort, ky, Sept. 16.-Bishop H. c. Morrison In his sermon at the ken- lucky annual conference of the Meth odist Episcopal Church South made a bitter attack on Mrs. Eddy. He charg- ed Mrs. Eddy with being fakir who claimed that while Christ had only part of the truth she had the whole truth. He had but one way of judg- ing this faith and all others like it. by the straightedge of gospel truth it would not stand.
 He said that Mir. Peabody, a distin- guished lawyer of Boston. had publicly proved Mrs. Eddy guilty of various crimes, and if anybody called into question what he said concerning her he would refer them to Mir. Peabody. He had great pity for the intelligent and respectable men and women she led away, but supreme contempt for Mrs. Eddy, he declared.

EDDIE MOY COMES TO GRIEF.
Chinese HOrseman Gets Cropper BE-
fore Admiring Multitude.

Horse, he velly bad" This was the
expression Of Eddie Moy. of 3Is Penn
sylvania avenue. yesterday afternoon.
when he returned home after visit to
the Casualty Hospital in the ambulance.
TO have a confused wound OF the head
dressed.
EDDIE had been riding a horse. He
thc.gh it great sport. and cavorted up
aEd down the Avenue for the benefit
OF his friends in Chinatown Mclean
ride horse velly fine" he shouted TO
them; me velly fine rider, like COW
punch" Eddie certainly got as much en-
jOyment out if it as a real live cowboy.
homesick for the saddle and his favorite
pony He rode IN and down for the edi-
hcatiOn OF the fifteen other children in
Washington's Chinatown. with his chest
out, proud and naughty. monarch for
the time of Chinatown. But Eddie came
to grief.
Enthused with his success and that
cheers Of the onlookers. he worked the
nag up TO a gallop. All went well until
she broke her stride, and the jolt sent
Eddie sprawling Friends rushed to his
assistance. and seeing blood running
from his head, summoned the ambulance.
and Eddie was carried away, much crest
fallen. but still a hero. At the hospital
it was said the wound was but a slight
confusion, and after a washing and the
application Of some court plaster he
was dismissed.
When talking Of his adventures last
night, Eddie explained that he was very
fond Of the horse and loved TO ride
"Chinee. he no ride in own countlee.
alice same Mclean man, but he like ride
over here. Ne ride velIy much. other
Chinee ride much. too; velly fine to ride -
It is a peculiar fact, that although the
native Chinese do not take to horseback
riding, many of them in this country
adopt the sport, and in many instances
turn out to be fairly good horsemen.
There are several in this city, it is said,
who ride regularly
