CRISPELL GIRL
ALIVE JULY 5
Clerks Report Seeing Her in Department
Store in Wilkes-Barre on
That Date.

Wilkes Barre. Pa, July IA second
autopsy to determine the exact cause of
death will be. made on the body Of Alice
Crispell, the 'lS-year-old daughter of a
mountain farmer, whose body was found
in Harveys lake, near here, last Mon
day, after the girl had been missing
three days. In the meantime. counsel
for Herbert Johns, the acknowledged
sweetheart of Miss Crispell, who is in
the county jail awaiting the action of
the grand jury. is preparing to fight for
Johns release through writ of habeas
corpus next Wednesday. Counsel will
base his argument on the fact that a
coroners jury has exonerated Johns.
The developments of the day included
statements by several clerks of Wilkes
Barre store that a girl resembling Miss
Crispell was in the store as late as
o'clock on the night of July 5. II these
statements are verified by an investiga-
ton now in progress it will upset the
entire case the police are working on.
Miss Crspell was last seen alive by her
friends on the night of the Fourth of
July. when she was in the company OF
Johns.
The body of Miss Crispel was ex-
humed late Saturday afternoon and was
brought to an undertaking establishment
here. A second autopsy will be per.
formed to-day, because District Attorney
Bigelow does not think that the first
examination by the coroner's physician
was complete.
There is friction between the coroner
and the district attorney over the case.
On Thursday night coroner's jury rem
dered a verdict generating Johns from
any connection with the death of the
girl. District Attorney Bigelow and the
county detectives working on the case
we're dissatisfied with the verdict and
to make out prima facie
case at Fridays hearing. The justice
ruled that such a case had been made
out and held Johns despite the protests
of his counsel.

NEW CURE FOR TUBERCULOSIS.
Gold Tricyanide in Infnitesimal Doses
Said to Be Effective.

Paris, July l4.-Another claim as to
cure for tuberculosis has just been an.
nounced by the distinguished French
medical researcher, DIR. Rosenthal Ae-
cording to him, the remedy is to be
found in gold tricyanide, which, taken
in ininitesimaI doses, is, he declares,
the most deadly enemy of the Koch ms
crobe.
one-half of a milligramme of this
salt. he states, is sufficient to sterilize
a whole litre of culture of tuberculosis,
a stronger dose has no effect.
DIR. Rosenthal says that remarkable
results may be obtained by repeated in
jections of one-ffth of millegramme
into the blood, especially at the spots
most affected by the disease.
The objection having been made that
this drug. while killing the germs. may
also injure the organism of the patient.
the doctor states that this is not so,
pointing out that a similar drug, cyanide
of mercury, is habitually taken daily in
doses of centigramme without i'll eff
fects.
Dr. Rosenthal, moreover, asserts that
the treatment will be specially valuable.
in eases of lupus, adenite, and menin
gifts.
His researches, which have aroused
considerable interest in the scientific
world, are being made the subject of
further tests and experiments.
