ONE BODY POUND Another May Be That of Sullivan Who Wat Drowned. J Anderson, Sept. 17. ?J. E. Sullivan of> this city received a tele-i Sullivan of this citv received a tele- I gram last night from the mayor of I Rockdale, Texas, stating that the j body of Hewlett C. Sullivan | had been found in the low-j| lands of the Brazos river and . that f another body was recovered near,? wher6 Mr. Turner's was found. It ? had .been identified as that of Hew-Jj lett Sullivan. The last body was found in a large pile of debris near^S where Mr. Turner's was and it is \ supposed that it is the body of Mr. j Sullivan. These young ' men were S fleeing together from the raging tor-jl rent of the floods.

I WAS PERFECT MACHINE Caruso's Singidg Mechanism Wai Perfect, Says Doctor London, Sept. 17.?Dr. William Lloyd throat specialist, who for many years treated Caruso, writes to the Daily Mail that, comparing him with other'great singers, he found the following characteristics of the perfect singing machine. "The most striking featur^was the great length of the vocal tube; the distance from the teeth to the vocal cords in Caruso was at least half an inch more than in 'any other great tenor I have examined. "A second point was the length of the vocal cords, on whose length, breadth and thickness the pitch" of the voice largely depends. The average length of the relaxed vocal cords in a man is 18 millimeters (about 3-4 in.) Cartiso'g vocal cords 'Were 1-6 'ift: longer than those of any other tenor I have seen. "The capacity for vibration of the vocal cords is another most importl ant factor, for the higher the note the more rapid must be the vibration. Caruso whei* singing his wonderful chest C sharp reached the phenomenal vibration for a man of 550 per second. ' "Caruso's whole body seemed to have more average resonance and one of the great secrets of his wonderful voice was the formation of the epiglottis, which was thick at the base as in bassos, but exquisitely'fine and delicate at the free end. The power of his voice was so great that he often fractured elasses in mv consulting room by singing their fundamental notes at the orifice."
