FIRST WITNESS
Declares Parts of the Human Body
Found in Cellar Were Severed by
Skilled Surgeon.

London, England, Sept. 14.--Testify-
ing at Hesumpting today in the trial
of DIR. Crippen, for the murder of
Belle Elmore. Prof. Augustus ]. Pep
per, pathologist of the University Of
London, said his examination had con.
vinced him that the human parts.
found in the cellar of the HilIdrop-
Crescent home. were severed by a
hand skilled in surgery, and directed
by mind that possessed real knowl-
edge of anatomy.
DR.. Crippen, who is charged as the
principal in the murder of his wife.
Belle Elmore, was perfectly calm. On
the other hand Miss LeNeve, accused
as an accessory, was wan and plainly.
in mental and physical distress.
Prof. Pepper was the first witness
called by the prosecution. At consid-
cradle length he described the exam.
ination. which he made of the parts
and set forth his conclusion. The wit
ness said he had identified pieces of
flesh as belonging to various parts Of
the body, except the head, hands, fore
arms, feet and legs, below the knees
and could say that the members found
were undoubtedly from the human
body No bones were discovered. nor
were there any traces of the genital
organs The whole viscera was pres
ent intact and the only wound was
cut in the upper part of the wind pipe.
Other parts were left undisturbed by
the one who did the cutting and the
way in which the parts had been sep
|arated convinced an expert that who
ever did the mutilation, did the work
with exactness born of familiarity
with the human body. Pepper said that
the hair discovered included short
strand Of fair texture. wrapped up
in a handkerchief of the size common
ly used by men. The witness identi-
fed particularly piece Of flesh six
by one inch in size as coming from
the abdominal wall and which bore
scar, which, in his opinion, was un-
doubtedly left by a wound from an
operation. Under cross examination
Pepper admitted that he had been un-
able to establish the sex OF the vic
tim.

FINAL BRIEFS ARE
FILED At GUTHRIE
Arguments in State Capital Case Be-
fore State Supreme Court win
Be Finished Tonight.
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
Guthrie, OKLA, Sept 14.-In the be-
ginning of the end of the state capi-
tai fight before the state supreme
court yesterday, the ballot employed
in voting on the initiated bill which
purported to locate the capital at Okla
homa City was called in question for
the first time.
OF the eight hours assigned for an
guments on this case, Judge B. f.
Burwell consumed the first two with
defense of the form and effect Of
the initiated bill and an assault on the
validity of the enabling act.
Justices Hays, Dunn and Williams
questioned the Oklahoma City law
yer to bring out his views as to the
effect produced by the ballot, of vot-
ing on more than one proposition, con-
trary to the provisions of Oklahoma's
initiative and referendum law.
Judge Burwell contended that it
would be perfectly legal to vote on
any number of propositions which per-
tanned to the same subject.
In his argument on the validity Of
the enabling act, Judge Burwell
brought but practically no new matter
and he was followed by Judge Frank
Dale of counsel for the city of Guthrie
contentious as to the binding effect
of the same instrument which the Ok
lahoma City attorneys have tried so
hard to discredit.
Argument viii require all of today
when the case will be submitted
Final briefs were filed by Guthrie
yesterday to which Oklahoma City will
be permitted to reply later.
The same counsel are appearing for
both parties. including Judge c. B.
Stuart of McAlester, who is chief
counsel for Governor Haskell in Mus
kogee town lot vases.

BURNS LECTURES
ON DEVELOPMENT.
Wrestling Exhibition at auditorium
Drew Only Small Crowd But
Proved interesting Show.


Vinita was last night treated to an
athletic exhibition that is rarely seen
in town Of the size of this town. The
audience was comparatively small,
but those who took advantage of the
opportunity of seeing Farmer" Burns
the veteran wrestler in action, we're
we'll pleased with the performance,
and it Is safe bet that il these great
wrestlers again visit this city the
house will be filed After the show
Farmer Burns stated that he under
stood that this city had never had
anything Of the kind before and that
Iof course the people were not as much
interested as they would be if they
were educated to understand such an
exhibition. He intimated that he
might return to this city next spring
The bill last night was opened by a
three round preliminary bout between
two local boxers of the high school
class.
After the preliminary Prof. Simmer,
who is said to be the strongest man
In the world gave an exhibition Of
weight lifting. This feature Of the
show was most wonderful. Feats of
strength were shown that seem impos-
sible. Huge iron dumb bells were
juggled as though they were mere
toys. A two hundred pound man was
raised with one hand and pushed the
full length of the arm above the mans
head. Five men from the audience
were selected to try to lift the weights
and they found them too heavy to
play with. Prof. Simmer in one stunt
raised 2SS pound dumb bell above
his head and then with his arms thus
supporting the weigat, he lay down
and lying fiat on his back with the
weight still at arms length permitted
a two hundred pound man to sit on
the bar, thus making the total weight
supported 4SS pounds.
AT the conclusion of the strength
exhihst Farmer Burns gave a neat
lecture, in his blunt manner on the
requirements for building up the hui
man body. He stated that he never
drank, chewed or swore and to those
virtues credited his wonderful career
on the mat. He told of his work in
training Jeffries aEo other great figh-
ters and gave some good advice to
young aspirants for athletic honors as
well as for the preservation Of the
health Of the human body.
The most interesting feature 81 the
show was the wrestling exhibition be-
tween the veteran Burns and Oscar
Wassem, champion of the middle
west. This exhibition was strange to
most of the audience but was recog.
nized as an exceptional exhibition Of
the wrestler's Skill The two great
wrestlers struggled over the mat for
about an hour Burns getting two falls
in that time.
They went from here to Claremore
where tonight they win give another
exhibition.

All Amendments Will Be
Fought BY Prohibitionists

votes at the coming election, providing
they are as strong now as they were
three years ago. The anti-prohibition-
lists, on this basis of figuring, the only
one upon which the probable vote of
this fall can be estimated, would have
to poll 27,5O0 more votes than they did
three years, ago to carry their amend
ment. This is the reason the pro-
hibitionists want to have the high IL
cense and local option amendment
voted on in the general election. Dur.
ing the first election when the vote
was taken upon a constitutional pro-
vision for prohibition the large num-
ber of persons who did not vote at
all on the prohibition question really
counted against prohibition.
There were 14,631 less votes cast for
and against prohibition In that cam
paign than for candidates for COVER
nor. With the increase vote in the
state this fall 1t is probably that some.
thing aver 10000 votes will be cast
for the heads of the ticket that will
not be cast for or against prohibition
In this campaign that vote will count
against the anti-prohibitionists and
must be overcome by them.
In spite of the handicap of having
the proposition voted on at the general
election the anti-prohibitionists are
confident of winning this fall. They
point to the fact that practically every
Democratic vote cast in the first cleo
tion for Governor Haskell was a pro-
hibition vote. Haskell's fetal vote IN
the state was 1854, while the total
vote for prohibition was 130, 1861, prac-
tically a neek-and-neck race between
Haskell and prohibition.
The anti-prohibitionists point out
that during the recent primary cam
paign, Leslie P. Ross, the anti-prohibi-
tion candidate for governor before the
democrats, polled 27,6S7 votes, which
they claim were practically all local
option and high license votes. They
claim that practically all Of these were
voters who stood for prohibition and
Haskell in 1907, which would add at
least that many votes to the liz 900
anti-prohibition votes cast in 1907 The
anti-prohibitions claim that not all of
the vote in the party opposed to pro
hibition was cast in the primary, as
the full party strength is never voted
in such election, so they figure they
can secure at least 10000 votes for
high license and local option in the
coming election, probably enough to
carry the proposition.
There is little question that prohibi-
tion is not as popular in Oklahoma as
it was three years ago During The last
year open joints and gambling have
been running nnmolested in many cit
les of the state, and this has had a
tendency to turn many people against
prohibition as it now exists in Okla
homa. The prohibitionists, however,
attribute this condition to negligence
of local officers in enforcing the Law
and to court injunctions which have
hampered the state enforcement at
torney in capturing liquor shipped into
the state for use of the joints.

finally asserted her rights is related
in an exchange.
She was only three years old, and
it was her first visit to a number of
relatives. Aunts, uncles and cousins
crowded around her and kissed her
over and over again. She stood it
patiently and gave every kiss that
was asked for without demur. After
awhile, when she had run the CANT
let of affectionate relatives, Uncle
Tom said, Now, baby, I'll take you
out to see the cow"
Outside the door she stopped and
shook her little head. "Uncle Tom,'
she said. 81 won't kiss the cow"
And Uncle Tom took pity upon
her and did not insist.

DEGREES Of BURNS. :
How They Are Marked end How They
Should BE Treated.

The medical books describe sever
al degrees of burns, according to the
amount of damage the fire has done
to the skin or the parts beneath.
The first degree consists merely
in redness and singing of the skin,
such as is caused by the fame of a
match touching the finger for an in
slant or by a drop of hot wax from
a candle falling on the hand. Ordi-
narily this is a trivial accident, and
the pain of it, if annoying, may be
subdued by applying a cloth wet
with a solution of cooking soda, but
if a large surface is burned, as when
a cambria night dress catches fire
and blazes up for a moment, but is
quickly extinguished, the patient
may suffer severely from shock.
In the second degree, blisters
form on the injured part. Care
must be taken not to tear the bis
ters-in removing the burned cloth
ing, for example. A little snip with
clean scissors or two or three pune
lures with a clean needle should be
made in the part of the blister
which protrudes most, and as 500
as the water has drained away the
part should be covered with a cloth
wet with soda sluution or with
equal parts of limewater and olive
oil-called carron oil.
In burns of the third degree the
upper layer of the skin is destroyed.
This is the most painful of burns,
for the sensitive cutaneous nerves
are exposed. The first thing to do
is to cover the part so as to protect
the barred nerve endings from o n
tact with he air. The same dress
ing as that for burns of the second
degree will give relief until the ply
stefan comes. Carron oil is best,
but the soda solution is better than
nothing and much better than plain
water or oil.
In burns of the fourth degree
the third and fourth degrees usually
occur tOgether-the skin is burned
through and the bare flesh is cx-
posed. This, strange as it may
seem, is less painful than a third
degree burn, for now the nerve end
ings, which receive and transmit
the painful sensations, are entirely
destroyed. 1t is more serious in its
after effects, because it always
leaves a scar which is disiguring
and may contract and draw the part
out of shape.
In burns of the fifth degree the
muscles and other tissues are more
or less extensively d~isintegrated,
and in those of the sixth degree the
entire limb-fnger, hand, arm,
foot or leg-is destroyed.
In all these severer burns there
is more or less shock, which may be
so profound as to kill, and there are
also serious symptoms caused by
congestion of the internal organs
and probably also by a poison form
ed in the burned tissues.-Youth's
Companion.
