The introduction of the head of Bessie Little in the Franz murder trial at Dayton, yesterday, was wholly unnecessary and heathenish. The evidence of the doctors who examined it was all that was necessary, but the disgusting object, badly decomposed, must bo brought out, filling the court room with an indescribable stench and the jury and spectators with disgust and nausia.

Several years ago, two young men left Norwalk, Ohio, and went to South America. After many vicissitudes one of them returned home. About a month ago he received a letter from his comrade, saying that he had discovered gold in mountains near the coast in the territory in dispute between England and Venezuela. Assisted by two natives and a donkey, he had mined some of the gold and sent it to a New York bank. The prospector asked his friend to draw on the New York bank, buy a small steamer 'and bring it to Venezuela.

This tale was doubted, but a letter to tho bank in New York confirmed the story. The steamer Elsa was bought at Sandusky and a party of sdvon young men made up, one of them being a son of F. W. Buswell, of this city. The boat was taken to Chicago and refitted, and tho Mississippi reached by canal and rivor.

The little fellow performed such astonishing feats of legerdemain that his brother regularly engaged him, and young Herrmann traveled as a magician all over Europe until he was 14 years old.

In Portugal, the Ring decorated him, and the King of Spain made him a Knight of the Order of Machella. Herrmann left his brother after traveling BIX years with him, and then traveled himself all over Europe and America. He amassed a great fortune, but spent a great deal of money. Herrmann had a theater in this city for several seasons, and of late years had made New York his home. He had a handsome summer home at White Stone, Long Island.

He owned a fine steam yacht, the Fra Diavolo, in which he made many cruises in American waters. He spoke seven languages fluently, and had traveled around the world three times.

The Dayton correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer, in reporting the Frantz murder trial, tells a funny incident that happened in the court room with Dayton Clark, formerly financial officer of the Home here, as the central figure. Judge Clark is an emphatic talker and given to the use of gestures. The Judge was telling Superintendent Farrell something which, apparently, he was particularly desirous of impressing upon his mind. His arms were cut- tine the air into very fine slices, when suddenly a bright, glistening object slipped from the hip pocket of his trousers and struck the floor with a resounding thump.

It was none other than a large revolver. Indeed, the size of the weapon would have made those used by Alkali Ike and his kindred spirits of the plains, gink into insignificance. Judge Clark looked at hie gun, lying there beneath his chair, and then hu face turned red, white and blue. As soon as he could suilk'iently recover from his excitement, he grabbed the gun and replaced it in his pocket, bev- eral of the ladies on the front seats half arose to their feet and looked toward the door, as if about to beat ahaaty retreat, while Chief Parrel! broke' out into a hearty laugh.
