Storm Damage in Florida
Not So Great as Expected

for more than three days Il IS
feared that Miami was hard lit.
The greatest damage so far report
ed was TO the citrus fruit crops. The
groves of oranges and grapefruit on
the west coast Jared worse than those
on the east coast where the trees are
protected by hummocks.
The losses at Key West were proba-
bly, less than 100000. Tampa and st.
Augustine suffered only minor damage
and today business is being resumed
at all Of these points. The loss at
Ocala from wrecked buildings was
less than $4,000 and at Orlando about
$4,000. st. Petersburg reports minor
damage to buildings, but the grape

Dentist Pale, But His Com

Him For a Moment.
Faced His Accusers Without
the Least Show of Ner-

of His Career, Claiming
He Knew Nothing of the
Body in Cellar Until He
Was Arrested.
BY Associated Press.

London, Oct. 20.-Dr. HawIey H.
Crippen faced his accusers from the
witness chair today In his trial for
the murder of Belle Elmore.
It was a dramatic moment when the
diminutive figure Of the American
emerged from the comparative isola-
ton Of the commodious dock and took
position where he was stared at with
interest by the throng that filled the
New Bailey court room.
Crippen was pale, but his compos-
ure did not desert him. Quietly and
quickly he stepped into the box and,
holding the Bible in his hand, took
the oath calmly.
skETcHED HIS CAREER.
Under the tactful guidance of his
counsel, Crippen sketched his career.
He had studied the theories but had
not taken a practical course in sur
gerry. He had performed a post NOR
tenn. The drugs which he had pur-
chased in England, he explained, were
wholly for his own preparations. He
explained the purchase Of hyosin, the
poison which the crown alleges was
used to kill Belle Elmore, by saying
that 1t was required for use in the
treatment Of nervous cases and de-
scribed his formula in making up
hyosin tabloids. About two-thjrds of
the hyosin. he said. he purchased on

that body had been buried there
until he returned to England under
arrest.
EXPERTS cRoss-ExAAINED.
The cross-examination OF the ex.
perts. in which Lord Chief Justice AL.
verstone, which Is presiding, joined,
centered on the ALLEGED scar on the
body. which the defense contends was
only fold in the skin.
Alfred Aspinall Tobin, chief coun-
sci for Crippen, piled Drs. Spilsbury
and Marshall with searching inquiries
but the medical men were not shaken
from their assertion that tHe mark had
been left from the wound of an opera
tion and that no sebaceous gland was
discovered in the scar area. DR.. Spills
bury agreed that if the presence of a
sebaceous gland was established it
would be conclusive evidence that the
mark was not a scar.
Crippen, paler than any time before,
followed the evidence with strained
intentness.
William H. Wilcox. the scientific
analyst to the home office, testified in
having discovered In the body a poison
which he was satisfied had been taken
through the mouth anG was the cause
of death. The poison. he said. was
not used by homeopathists as was sug-
gested by the defense.

Value of Vegetables

There are few people who know
much about the medicinal virtue OF
vegetables that are used in almost
every household. In France all good
cooks understand the medicinal prop
critics Of vegetables, but in this country
little attention is given to the subject.
The peasants of France live almost ex-
clusively upon vegetables, wine and
bread, certain vegetables being pre-
scribed because of their medicinal
qualities. Soup or broth made from
the outside parts of carrots is used as a
preventive and cure for jaundice. Car
rots contain sugar and are very fatten-
ing. Onion broth with cayenne pep
per is used in the treatment OF gout,
and the French peasants believe that
onion broth should be regular part oi
the diet of persons Of sedentary habits.
Celery, as is generally known, is q
nerve food, and also good for rheuma-
tism. Caulihower has medicinal prop.
critics. similar to those of onions. -Sar
