SON-IN-LAW'S BLOW WITH HAMMER TELLS

Sends William Meyer of Buffalo To Hospital

With a blow with a hammer, William MEYER, 50 years old, who came to this city from Buffalo yesterday afternoon, was laid low last night when, as is alleged, he threatened to use a razor on his son-in-law, Paul SKIFF; of No. 78 Broadway, SKIFF used the hammer.

Mrs. MEYER lives with the son-in-law, and has been separated from her husband for several years. MEYER gained entrance to the Broadway home, and it is charged that when he got quarrelsome and SKIFF told him to leave he drew the razor. SKIFF says he seized the hammer, which was conveniently within reach, and when MEYER attacked him warded off the slash with the hammer. The hammer, however, landed on MEYER'S head.

MEYER was made almost unconscious by the blow, so the ambulance of the Hahnemann Hospital was called. An X-ray photograph of his head will be taken to-day.

The police say MEYER came to the city in the summer of 1917 and broke the windows and doors in his wife's home in William street. They say also MEYER shot at his wife several years ago and was arrested for the offense, but escaped punishment.

MAN WHO SHAVED CONDEMNED MEN IN THE DEATH HOUSE,
HIMSELF A MURDERER, IS PAROLED BY BOARD

Albion, Jan. 6 - The death house at Sing Sing prison has lost its barber, who for nineteen years has shaved little patches on the head of each prisoner condemned to die. The electrodes of the death chair were applied to the shaven spot on the scalp of the prisoner to be put to death. The shaving process took place just before the condemned men passed through the little black door into the death chamber.

Without a doubt one of the most noted condemned prisoners whose head Henry DORSCH, the Brooklyn wife murderer, shaved during the years he officiated as barber in the death house was Charles F. STIELOW, who was convicted and sentenced in this village in July, 1915, and by various court and gubernatorial action was scheduled no less than seven times to be electrocuted. On one occasion Judge Charles GUY of the Supreme Court, granted a stay of execution to STIELOW after DORSH had shaven his head for the deadly electric current. One of the last official acts of former Governor WHITMAN before his term of office expired was to grant an unconditional pardon to STIELOW and restore full citizenship to him.

The Board of Pardons included DORSCH in the twenty convicts to whom paroles were granted last week. DORSCH was serving a twenty-year to life sentence for murdering his wife in Brooklyn twenty years ago.

LE ROY MAN, ACCUSED OF GIVING POISON TO WIFE IN POT OF TEA,
HAD TWO LOADED GUNS IN HOUSE

Rochester Chemist Testified That He Found Bichloride of Mercury in one Sample;
Examination Adjourned for Week

Le Roy, Jan. 7 - Charles DORNBROCK, who was arrested Saturday night on a warrant sworn out by his wife, charging him with attempted murder, and who has since been confined in the county jail at Batavia, was brought to LeRoy at 10 o'clock this morning for a hearing before Police Justice SKINNER. District-Attorney KELLEY appeared for the people, Mrs. DORNBROCK was represented by F. A. LEWIS, of Batavia, and James A. LE SEUR, of Batavia, appeared for the defendant. An adjournment was taken in the case at 4:30 P. M. (unreadable) Tuesday and the defendant was taken back to jail.

WIFE ON STAND

Mrs. DORNBROCK was the first witness sworn this morning and her testimony continued until noon. She testified to the fact that they had been married twenty-three years and said that they had never had any serious trouble. Of late her husband had acted queerly, she said, and had been in the habit of going out nights, staying quite late on some occasions. When she questioned him he gave her the impression that he was opening a jitney business. She admitted that she had kept a record of his movements in a book and had often found that he went in the direction of Pavilion, after leaving home. She had followed him a short distance on some occasions. On another occasion she had found the picture of a woman in his pocket.

KEPT SAMPLE OF TEA

Her suspicions as to poison were first aroused on December 29th, when she thought that the tea in her cup had a peculiar appearance. She kept a sample. Again on December 31st she again became suspicious and also took a sample of the tea. She testified that on this occasion her husband did not drink tea, having stated that he believed it made him nervous. The sample of tea she turned over to her attorney, Mr. LEWIS, who took it to Dr. Victor CHAMBERS, a chemist at the University of Rochester, for analysis.

The attorney, who was the second witness, testified to taking the samples to the chemist. It was brought out that DORNBROCK had two loaded revolvers in that house and that his wife had two different parties unload them. On cross-examination, Mrs. DORNBROCK admitted that she was unfamiliar with bichloride of mercury and that she did not know there was any in the house. Mrs. DORNBROCK admitted that she thought a lot of her husband and does still. She did not wish to send him to prison, but thought that he should be examined as to his mental condition.

BOUGHT POISON AT STORE

This afternoon the first witness was Dr. CHAMBERS. He testified to receiving the three samples of tea. In two of these he found no poison, but in the other he found bichloride of mercury in considerable quantity. Miss Mildred CURTIS, a clerk at the drug store of Smith & Given, was sworn, and she testified to having sold an ounce of bichloride of mercury to the defendant on December 31st. He claimed that he wanted this to temper a soldering iron which he uses in his work as trouble man for the telephone company.

Officer DAMPIER, who served the warrant on DORNBROCK Saturday night, was the last witness of the day. He told of accompanying the defendant to the latter's home in Clay street before taking him to jail and produced a bottle containing a powder, which DORNBROCK turned over to him. He said that DORNBROCK took it from a shelf in the cellar-way. The officer took it back to the drug store and had the druggist seal it. Samples of the contents were taken by the chemist, the district-attorney and the other attorneys. During the examination DORNBROCK appeared calm and listened attentively to testimony given by the witnesses.

RECIPE TO DARKEN GRAY HAIR

A Cincinnati Barber Tells How to Make a Remedy for Gray Hair

Mr. Frank HARBAUGH of Cincinnati, O., who has been a barber for more than forty years recently made the following statement:
"Anyone can prepare a simple mixture at home, at very little cost, that will darken gray hair and make it soft and glossy. To a half pint of water add 1 ounce bay rum, a small box of Barbo Compound and 1-4 ounce glycerine. These ingredients can be bought at any drug store at very little cost. Apply to the hair twice a week until the desired shade id obtained. This will make a gray haired person look twenty years younger. This is not a dye, it does not color the most delicate scalp, is not sticky or greasy and does not rub off."
