Los Angeles, Sept. 3.-Dr. r. B. Grif'
fifth, who trephined the skull of Bull "
Young in a desperate effort to save the
fighters life, after his knockout by
Jess Willard, was subjected to an un-
comfortable grilling by Attorney Earl
Rogers today when he testified at the
preliminary hearing of Willard and
II other defendants who are charged
with responsibility for Young's death.
Rogers apparently tried to prove that
the operation may have been partially
responsible.
After Rogers had forced the admis'
sion from DR.. Griffith that the opera
tion upon Young was the first Of that
nature he had performed alone, Rogers
demanded to know whether he had
known anything about trephining be-
fore. Griffith s reply was ga little

''I am not an expert but know the
technique Of the operation" Griffith
, explained when he was goaded further
by the attorney.
Rogers quizzed the witness closely
on numerous subjects connected with
Young's death, finally asking:
"The day after the operation, didn Z
you tell me on the street that you
wanted $3.50 for performing the opera
tion, and when ! asked why, said that

 The first blankets of the season are always the best. They are made of the longest and best wool because they can be made quicker and the Indians there by can quicker pay their debts to the trader who has been carrying them over the winter. The Indians also hur- ry to raise money for the annual Aug ust dances.
 There is then nothing left but the shorter and inferior wool and the In dians annual make that up into blank cts at their leisure Traders who know of these peculiarities of the Indians therefore all make their purchase in July and August.
 The Big Curio Store never had such large and well selected stock but those who call first will have the wid- est choice of designs and that is some thing to be taken into account for the reason that there are not two designs ike-AdVerisement
