PRESERVING THE BODY.
The Discovery OF q York Stale Man
IncIosing the Dead in Cement.

The Discovery of q York Stale Man
Inclosing the Dead in Cement.
New YORK, Sept. S0.-A Herald
special from Buffalo, n. Y, says: TheO-
dOre Grave Hulett, aged Il years, and
for several terms side justice Of the
Niagara county court, came from
Niagara Falls yesterday afternoon to
explain before the sanitary board of
Buffalo his method of fermentation, dis
covered some twelve years ago. The
discussion oft before the recent conven-
tion of the American Association for
the advancement of science caused him
to come before the board to show that
there was nothing new in cementation
to him. He exhibited cement blocks
containing specimens of fruit and the
bodies of animals placed there in 1874.
They were changed into q substance
closely resembling stone, and the origi-
nails colors were preserved to remarka-
BILE degree. Mr.. Huiett said he had de-
cided to cement all his family, but his
two daughters having expressed the
idea that it would be "pretty close quar-
ters," he had in their cases simply in
closed their coffins in the cementto the
thickness of foot, making it into a
cumbrOus stone box estimated to weigh
close upon two tons. He exhibited his
will, made some time since, which pro-
vides that his own body shall be en-
beded in cement. He said further that
he not infrequently cemented caskets at
the Falls.
At the Oakland cemetery, he said, the
ground is wet and it had been found to
work perfectly. The gases escape
through the cement very slowly, and a
perfect copy of the body is left. "If,"
said the cementationist, 1--WE had the
body of Moses in such process we
could now give every college in the
world u perfect model of Gods chosen
leader" He says he has no scheme to
work and only wants to give the
world the benefit of his experiments.
Judge Welker and the Dow Law.
CLEVELAND, Oct. LIN the Circuit
Court of the United States Judge Welk'
er yesterday disposed of the application
of William Tanner, ST., a saloon keepe
of Alliance, o., for preliminary injunc
ton to restrain the village of AL
lance from the enforcement of the pro
hibftory ordinance passed under the
Dow law, by refusing the restraining or
der. Judge Welker held: 'That tn
court had no Jurisdiction to afford tn
relief asked; that the ordinance doe
. not conflict with the fourteenth amend
: ment to the constitution of the UniteC
States; that the ordinance does not de
i prive the complainant of his property
that the ordinance is only police regu
lation in the interest of public moral
and for the common good. Judge Jack
h son concurred in the refusal of the ar
}, plication.
