To Overhaul the Treasury.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-There is TO be
a thorough and systematic overhauling of
the treasury department. The committee
recently appointed to examine into its work
ings will. it is said, be expected to take its
time in the matter. 1t is even announced
that examination may require as much as a
couple of years time. and will extend back
over the period from the issue of the first
bonds during the war down to the present
time. This has more the appearance of
political move than anything this admins
tration has done since it has taken posses
sion of the office. A properly-organiz
committee and expert accountants and
politicians managing it could make up
within the next two years a statement in
regard to the management of the treasury
which would be very valuable in the next
presidential campaign. Figures wont lie,
it is said, but in the hands of expert
manipulators it is easy to make them prove
ANYTHING they want, while it is equally
difficult to show to the non-expert the
falacies of complex statement upon a
subject OF this complicated character.

ROASTED TO DEATH.
Four Railroad Men Killed in N
SmaShuP.

Special 70 the Globe.
MICHIGAN CITY, Ind. Jan. IA ter
rible collision occurred on the Baltimore Il
Ohio road near Coburg. a small station two
and half miles west of Aida, where the
Baltimore & Ohio and the Monon routes
cross. about , a. m. to-day, whereby one
engineer and three firemen were killed out
right. The trains colliding were both
heavily loaded with freight, the east bound
one being dOuble-header, while the west
bound one was in tow of a monster lOcOmo-
tive known as a camel-back, which are
noted Tor their immense strength. The
train IN charge Of this engine should have
stopped at Aida for orders. but the engi-
neer and tremen were both asleep. and
they ran to the crossing at a high rate. and
continued on down grade 10 the dreadful
calamity which awaited them. Both trains
were on down grade and rounded the
curve al the same time, going twenty-five
miles an hour. The result was that the
three engines and twenty ears of merchan-
disc and live stock were heaped into one
UNRECOGNIZABLE MASS.
This caught fire and burned fiercey for
some time. The engineer of the west
bound train was found with his head split
open from crown To neck, and his face fell
forward on his breast. and his brains were
scattered about the locality. One fireman
became pinned in between pieces of the
wreck, and was suspended by his head until
he was literally roasted To death. 4 second
fireman was cut completely in two, and the
dismembered parts of his body were found
some distance apart. The third was badly
injured. and died after few hours of suf-
fering. The other two engineers escaped
by jumping. All passenger trains for Chi
cagO have made the circuit via this city
over the MOnOn * Michigan Central. The
east-bOund trains take the same route. The
extreme reticence of the Baltimore " Ohio
management prevented the obtaining of the
names of the killed ana injured employees.

But there are many well-defincd cases

The Arab soldier, with his white burn
Gus fluttering behind him, his high red
saddle and saddle clothes, his knees
high and body bcnt forward, with his
long silver mounted gun fi%ourishing in
the air, looks, as he gallops forward in n
cloud of dust, the very embodiment of
the picturesque, exultant war spirit of

formulas for murder, but free to carry
out his own bloodthirsty purposes with
as much swagger and ostentation as

An account is given in The Revue Sci
entifique of an Italian method of pre-
serving bodies in a soft and flexible state
for several months, and by this means
enabling them to be dissected without
any danger to the preparation or anato-
mist. To this end they are placed in
some sort of a receptacle or other, and
covered with alayer of the thickest and
purest honey that can be obtained. If
II be desired to preserve an entire ca
daver by this simple and inexpensive
process, the plan pursued is to begin by
carefully filling the encephalic, thoracic
and abdominal cavities with a sufficient
quantity of tannin.
The process, when conducted with
care, is stated to give remarkable re-
suits, Il corpse thus prepared appearing
for several months to be asleep. In n
sense, the alcoholic fermentation that
occurs under these circumstances serves
it as food while preserving its softness
and flexibility to a degree strongly re-
sembling that of real life. When the
fermentation ceases, a hardening of the
parts occurs, and renders the artistic
forms of the body still more Marked

ancient Persians had some way of show

Even in San Diego a great many years
ago they had heard all the stories be-

a brief spell, and imperiled his digestion

crowd who had exhausted their after
dinner conversation, and fallen so des-
perately back on old Joe Millerisms that
a man began to tell an old
story every fellow as he recognized it
put his spoon across his glass. Agassiz
had not noticed this very much, but
catching the spirit of the crowd, he
started in to telling stories. He had
hardly begun the first when n fellow put
his spoon on his glass, and most of the
boys followed. Being n scientist, he
was slow to take any notice OF this
cranky proceeding. 1t came to the third
story, and when he got through every
spoon was on every glass on the table.
Blu they pretended to laugh. Then one
of the circle began, and the second spoon
stopped him dead.
