These bops, the only male twins on earth, appeared here in person with their brides and put oivan set of roller skating:, dancing and music, playing several instruments. They were developed into athletes by long years of scientific training and were linguists and musicians of professional standing. Lucio, one of the twins, who was taken sick and died, ^was buried in New York, Nov. 30, after his brother, Simplicio, had been separated from his body in an operation to be^considered the first successful one of its kind. Simplicio, who had been recovering rapidly until twenty-four hours before, died Dec. 5, of rheumatic fever in a hospital in New York, after having been surgically severed from his Filipino brother, Lucio. The twins both entered the hospital on Nov. 17. Though still suffering from the shock of the two operations which made him an independent being for the first time in twenty-nine years, following the death of his brother, Simplicio was reported in a favorable condition, and doctors said there were excellent prospects that Simplicio would survive his unique experience. They declined to state the cause of death, but his ailment^ had been reported earlier as cerebro-spinal meningitis. 456 Hr MeB^NRY COUNTY NOW DRAW OLD-AGE PENSIONS TiwndMj, December 10, lttl < Mr. and Mrs. H.
