The old idea of covering dead bodies
with a film Of metal and so rendering
their face and form practically imper-
ishable has lately been revived, but it
a hardly be said to have been re-
ceived with favor. The p~etrifaction of
the human body, however, is q field in
which for many years Italian scientists
have worked with no little C.
The process at present adopted is only
a partial ~rediscovery of the secret pro
cess Of Segato, the F~lorentine. The
body of Joseph Mazzani was by it
turned into almost transparent marble,
and when on the fifth anniversary of
the death of the patriot his coffin was
opened in the presence of some of his
faithful followers, they found his face
quite unchanged.
Some of the bodies thus treated are
solid, permanent petrifications; some
are provisional, capable of returning
to a fresh condition; all preserve the
fullness and transparency Of life, while
most are in a pliable condition. 1t is
stated that all the varied members of
the body are hard at first, but become
after awhile supple, and even capable
of furnishing studies in the anatomy
of muscles, veins and nerves New

Mr.. Barring Gould has collected some
curious cases of this kind. In 1856 n
pig was burned at Fontenay-aux-Rose3

In 1886 a judge at Falaise condemned

A certain official, Boosting of his power
with the minister, made a wager that the
minister would sign officially for him the
Lords Prayer. He wrote the prayer out on
an official paper and inserted it among a
number of papers sent for the inspection Of
the minister. In due time it was returned,
duly signed aud sealed with the great seal,
proving iDcontsstably that the minister had
never even glanced at the paper. The actual
wording of the accusation against one young

was: The accused is suspected of an inten-

Distinctly suggestive, observes the
New York Sun, is the lawsuit which has
been brought under Benjamin Franklin's
will, probated in 1890. This good year
Of grace is 1890. ME sum of 800, 900
is held under the will to be lent to young
mechanics to aid them In setting up in
their trades. The conditions of industry
have so changed that young mechanics
can no longer set up in trade in the way
contemplated by tho testator. So the
purpose of the trust fails, and his de.
scendants claim the money. But sup
pose another 100 years or 200 years to
have passed, aud who shall say that we
may not have attained to the pressure OF
Chinese life and that we, too, may not
inhibit the use Of "power," and get back
to the handioraft' Then who shall take
the endowments of our technical schools
whose occupation will be gomez And at
such day B. Franklin's fund would re-
sumo its function. In the past 100 years
it has multiplied twenty-fold, namely,
from $4,000 to 500, 900. At the same
rate Of increase the coming century would
see 1t swollen to 1000, 900. And this
would be pretty sum to help young
fellows start in life at time when

A New Yorker, who has recently spent
some time in the literary circles Of Lon
don, says that there must be at least 100
biographies of Mr.. Gladstone already in
manuscript, awaiting the event of his
death, at which time they will be ready
for publication in book form. Beside
these manuscripts, there are to be found in
the pigeon holes Of all the newspaper Of.

in readiness for the dispatches announc,

There is prejudice in the rural dis

the Portland 0regonidn. People in every

bachelors taking up claims in their
vicinity. An exchange says: "There
are some splendid claims on Deadwood
Creek not yet taken, as good as any on
the coast. The citizens want men with
families to settle on them. Three Of
these claims were taken by bachelors
last fall. The ladies Of Deadwood passed
resolution placing three years limit
on celibacy in that district, and provid-

In the estimation of West Shore "the
barbarity of the dark ages never pro.
duced more revolving scene than that
witnessed in the capital of Spain few
days ago, when the body of woman
who had suffered death by garroting was
left, horrible and repulsive spectacle,
exposed to the vulgar gaze of the public
for ten hours. A people that can employ
such brutal method for executing prison
srs and maintain such hideous custom
OF exposure after death to the gaze OF the
populace, can not expect to make much
progress as a nation or us individuals.
It is to eliminate as much as possible
from legal extinction of life all that is
brutal in its nature and demoraliziug and
embruting in its effects upon the people,
that electric execution is urged so strongly
by men of sound thought in this country.
To give criminal painless death is far
less necessary than to give him mode
of dispatch that shall help to lessen the
british and savage instincts in our nature
as people. For the welfare of those
outside of Jail, rather than for those in
side, the hangman's MOOSE, the guillotinc,
the garrotting collar and the kuout must

wheel and the hcadsman's axe have pre-
