The skeleton Of Gutteau.

Notwithstanding all reports to the contrary, the
fact Is that the body OF the assassin Guteau Is In
the Army Medical Museum, as well as the coffin
and the clothing. The skeleton is now being pre-
pared for preservation. This is difficult piece OF
work, and requires In the medical colleges, usu-
ally some two months In an ordinary case. Pos
sibly In this case longer time may be required,
owing TO the extraordinary care which will be
taken. The limbs have been removed and the
TRUNK (emptied OF the several organs, intestines,
the subsequent operations, fncfsionS being made
TO the bone In various places. These pieces are
OF me, and subsequently the flesh is taken from
the bones by maceraiiOncut and scraping-the
bones being denuied OF all cartilage. This opera
ton Is probably the most difficult OF any In the
preparation OF the skeleton. The marrow
must next be extracted from the bones,
or otherwise the skeleton would require con-
Jinual attention and repair, as the mar
row would exude and emit an intoerabe
stencil There are different modes used in extract
Ing the marrow, but the most approved is what Is
known as the ether treatment, which requires
several weeks. The bones are placed In a Vat of
ether and as the animal fat Is detached 1t rises to
the top, and Is SKINNED of. As long as particle
or grease floats in the Vat the bones allowed to
remain and in some cases the ether Is rediStiled
and Its use continued. The bones are next placed
In solution OF chloride OF lime for a few days,
and then exposed To the sunlight and air for some
two or three weeks, ana this completes the bleach
ing process. Next the skeleton IS prepared; the
back bone being first set upan iron rod bent to INT
tate the natural curvature OF the spine being used,
screwed tlrSt IN tile cocyx and pass NJ through
the opening In which the spinal marrow was
during lic-leather washers taking the
places OF the cartilage which separate
The vertibrae during life, then holes drilled in
the proper places. and by means OF metallic eyes,
wires and screws the bones are set in as near
natural position as is possible. This Is the usual
mode adopted, but may not be closely followed at
the museum.
The Poisoned bouquet.
In regard to the statement that the flowers anal
ysel by DIR. W. c. Tllden cannot be traced to Mrs.
Scovllle, it can be shown that the flowers were
taken to Guiteau by OF the officers Of the Jail
for Mrs ScOvlle; that under the direction of Depu
ty Warden Russ they were taken out OF the cell OF
the prisoner by the death watch (Mr. JOhnSOn),
pl ,ced in his (Mr. RUSSO hands, examined by Mr..
Russ, Capt. Coleman, Rev. Dr. Hicks and DIR.
McWiliiamS, each OF whom got some OF the pow
der on his hands; that DR.. McWilliams took charge
of them and handed them TO DIR. Tilden on July
5th, and that they were kept under lock and key
till examined.

The FrebeI Society.

The regular monthly meeting OF the Fr9bel
Society was held last night at the residence of
the president, II. w. Fcnwick, 1908 N street
northwest The meeting was an unusually
interesting one. During the business session
the president made some remarks on the work
OF the society in promoting the kindergarten
system, and said that 1t was their intention to
ask Congress for an appropriation Of about n
thousand dollars to continue the free kinder
garten now nourishing at Ohio avenue and

herself to the school without recompense

Tho Painters Union, organized at Timms'
Hall about week ago. held second meeting
last night at Knights of Pythas' Hall for the
purpose of electing officers and adopting by
laws. Nearly two hundred painters were pres
ent, and an active, harmonious meeting was
held. The following officers were chosen:
President, Thomas Denham; vice-president,
clair; financial secretary, John Glynn; treas
urer, George d. Quackenbush, and sergeant
alarms, Frank Latham. The union Is now
energetic set of officers, and will undoubtedly
accomplish great deal for the benefit of the
painters in the city.
The painters notified the bosses thatafter
the first Monday in April $3.50 per day wages
would be demanded. An application for q
charter was made to the Knights Of Labor and
other business transacted. The completion
OF the constitution and bylaws was deferred
until the next meeting.

tions hauled up at the police station and
politely requested free apartments for the
night. The gentleman was accompanied by
a black and-white cur, and claimed TO hail
from Richmond, stating that he had just
stepped from the evening passenger train.
He announced himself Read uster in poll
tics, and a warm admirer Of Billy Malone,
but a close inspection of the pedestrians
smelling machine would indicate that he
has paid more attention TO barroom legal
attainments lately than to politics, aud

desired 10 sleep with his cur he would have
TO take n common cell. About this time
several strolling citizens stepped in, and
after a rigid survey of the dog it was de-
cided that he was native Alexandrian,
and the suppositiou was that the gentleman
intended to take him to Washington and
sell him to some aesthetic dog fancier The
tramp acknowledged the corn, and after
inquiring if any one wanted to "set EN-

The FIipDer Case.

The record in the Flipper court-martial
case, together with the report thereon OF Judge
Advocate General Swain, was submitted to
the Secretary of War to-day. Gen. Swain feels
that justice should be tempered with mercy
in this case, and recommends a mitigation of
the sentence of dismissal imposed by the
Court which found Flipper guilty OF n gross
violation of the regulations of the Army, but
not guilty of acts involving fraud. 1t is the
general impression that the sentence Will
be mitigated to some lighter punishment
