Murder by Burial.

"Topics of the Time" in the Gen.
tury, contains bold demand for re
form in the manner in this country of
conducting funerals, aud also the
following disquieting statement:
No scientific discoveries have been
made in our generation of greater i'm
portance than those of NJ. Pasteur.
AS many Of our readers are aware,
they relate to the propagation of dis
ease through living organisms, those
known as bacilli and bacteria being
most frequently connected with the
morbid processes of disease. NJ. Pas
teur finds that these microscopic forms
of life exist especially in dead bodies;
that they work their way up through
the soil to the surface, are taken into
the intestines of grazing cattle or are
distributed by the winds, and so, it would
seem probable, propagate whole school
'of diseases-such as smallpox, scar
latina, typhoid,and typhUs fevers, diph-
liberia, tubercular consumption, pneu-
monia, erysipelas, ETC., ETC., and per-
haps yellow fever. NJ. Pasteur men,
tions the splenic fever which prevails
in France and other countries of Eu-
rope, and which annually destroys
thousands of cattle and sheep. In one
such case he discovered that an cpl
demic of this disease was followed
after some years by its fresh outbreak
among cattle that had been grazing in
the fields where, previously, victims of
the same disease had been buried Under
the pastures. The little bacteria had
worked their way from the buried car.
casses to the surface, and were found
in swarms in the intestines of earth
worms gathered there.
1t ought to be the business of sci
entific people to show the relation of
these facts-if they can be accepted as
facts-to our present method of dis.
posing of the dead. If the breezes
that blow from Greenwood, Mt.
Auburn and Laurel Hill are laden
with germs which propagate the dis
eases which have already slain our
kindred, then the most expensive
feature of those cities of the dead is
not their costly monuments. 1t is
worth while to ask ourselves whether
the disciples of cremation have not
truth on their side, and whether some
amendment is not needed in the modes
Of burial which, in this country
especially, seem designed to resist the
operations of nature as long as pos
sible, and so to make a dead body a
source of indefinite evil.
Indeed, the whole matter of our
burial customs is one which urgently
needs revision. 1t is astonishing that,
in connection with risks so many and
various as are involved in our modes
of burying our dead, there should have
been in modern times so little care and
forethought. The dwellers in proxim-
ity to graYeyards who have been
poisoned by their drainage include
vast multitude whose number has
peYeT been Feekoped,

rnrse Bear. KInea and Boz saved.


Robert Lyon, Of Cliff Glen, Ventura
county, Cal, communicates the follow
ing TO the Ventura Signal The tim
ber-clad hills at the head Of the Ma
tiliia seem to be teeming with droves
of grizzly bears. Last week nine were
seen in one!day near the ranch of Ra-
fael Ruiz, some of them monsters in
size; and on last Thursday Senior Ra-
mon Ortega shot three grizzlies. Ortega
and his twelve-year-old boy were riding
in the hills above the Matilda looking
for cattle, when one large grizzly and
two that were considerably smaller
came out of the brush and halted not
more than fifty yards from them. Or
tega jumped from his horse to get
good shot, when his horse got fright
ened at the sight of so many bears and
started and ran away about 100 yards,
when he stepped on his bride and
stopped. Ortega took a good aim at
the big bear, and dropped it dead
at the first shot. He then
drew on one of the smaller
bears, and it too tumbled in its tracks,
never rising again. The other bear
then took to the brush, followed by a
savage dog. After assuring himself
that the two bears were dead, Mr..
Ortega sent his boy on foot to bring
back his horse. The boy started, but
before he got TO the horse, his dog,
closely pursued by savage and angry
bear, overlook him. AS soon as the
bear saw the boy he rushed at him,
paying no more attention to the dog,
and the boy was too frightened to do
anything but stand still and call to his
father to save him. Ortega seized his
rifle and fired just as the bear raised
on his launches to strike the boy; the
bullet knocked the bear down, but he
raised and again. rushed at the boy,
the blood streaming from bullet-hole
in his side, and this time he rushed at
the fear-paralyzed boy with bloodsot
eyes and foaming, open mouth. With
a last cry Hes got me, fatherl' the
frightened boy sank to the ground,
and the desperate father sent second
bullet from his faithful repeating rifle
crashing into the bears body, and with
an almost human cry of agony the saw
age brute fell backward and rolled
down the hill. Ortega rushed to the
boy and found him uninjured And
then the great hunter, who had killed
more grizzly bears than any man in
Southern California, thanked God fol
the miraculous preservation of his
boys life, and for some time he was
too weak from the shock of his boys
great peril to even lift his rifle. He
did not hunt for the wounded bear, for
the brush was very dense at the bot
tom Of the ravine, and he thought he
had had adventure sufficient for one
day. The largest of the two dead
bears would weigh over 1900 pounds.
1t was all two strong horses could do
to drag it to tree near by. The
other, which was quite poor, would
weigh about ZOO pounds. From Ra-
mon, who was in town this week, says
the Signal editor, we learn that he
afterward got the wounded bear. One
of his friends tells us, in speaking Of
his bear adventures, that in one win
ter, on the Sespe rancho, Ortega cap
tured fifty-four bears with the lasso.

The prospects of Mexico were never
more encouraging than at this mo-
ment. With the introduction of
American capital and enterprise the
country seems to have started upon a
new career Of prosperity and peace,
and the message Of President Gonzales
to the congress Of the republic, at its
recent opening, does not in the least
exceed the probabilities of the case
when it predicts for it future of sub
stantial progress in all the elements of
prosperous statehood. An official state
ment shows that the revenue of the
republic for the last fiscal year was
$3O,0O0,000 while from 1867 to 1877 it
averaged only $16,000000. As the
country is opened by the railways now
being constructed, and its resources
are made accessible, the present pros
porous pace will be greatly accelerated,
and men now in middle life may live
to see the completion of the transfor-
nation which American influence has
so happily begun.

If the Sanitary Engineer can be cred
tied, the consumption of the smoke
from locomotives is Just as prac-
ticable as the consumption of that from
stationary boilers. An engine invented
by California mechanic has been ex-
perimented with, and not only con-
sumed the smoke, but saved fifty per
cent. of fuel in doing so. The con-
sumption is effected by a downward
draft which throws smoke and cinders
into the fire box. If the invention
really is a success it will rob railway
travel Of one of its worst terrors.

Another myth is going the way of
all the earth. A scientific investigator
says that the stories of the pcmp, the
riches, the palaces, the gold and silver
of the Aztecs was Spanish lie told by
Cortez to enhance the romance of his
conquest. The scientist reasons that
1t would be utterly impossible for a
race to disappear and take with it all
the evidences of its civilization as the
Aztecs must have done if they are
what the Spaniards represented them.
The ruins found in Central America
belonged to an older and different race.
The Aztecs were never civilized. In
the time of Cortez they were precisely
like the Pueblo Indians of modern
days; their cities were nothing more
than vast communal houses like those
in which the Pueblos live, and all the
stories of their magnifcence and of
the wealth and civilization of the Az
tee empire were invented by the Span
iards. They adopted the methods
of building employed by the Spaniards;
suffered their old communal houses
made of sun-dried brick to crumble
into shapeless mounds, and learned the
art of revolution, and so became the
Mexicans of modern times.

st. Isaac's, the great cathedral at st.
Petersburg, which was finished in 1859
and cost $25,000,000, is slowly sinking
into the ground, and the authorities do
not know how to stop It. The Rus
sian capital is built upon a marsh, and
the site of st, Isaac's is on one of it's
softest parts. Over 100000 was
originally spent in driving piles, but
the building has never been firm, and
now threatens to topple over at one
corner. A recent examination showed
that on one side the columns had sepa-
rated from the architrave, leaving a
space of three inches between. The
roof was at once lghtened by remov-
ing large stones, but new assures ap-
peared as the work went on; the work
men left in fear and the engineers gave
up the job as bad one. Since then
nothing has been done except to hold
consultations and reject impractical
plans for saving the building.
