The Contagious Hospital Proposition.
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
/ was much gratified to notice in The
Star the only solution yet presented of
the contagious disease hospital question.
Since all Washington realizes its needs in
this direction and no one will grant site
for such building nor permit 1t TO be placed
in any portion of the District 1 hope that
the Senate District committee will i'm
mediately accede to the proposition offered
by Sister Beatrice of Providence Hospital
and make available for them half the ap-
propriation of $4,000. Unfortunate citi-
zens and children of our city will not then
be compelled to tramp through our streets
half dead with contagious diseases seek
ing shelter and care, as has been the case
heretofore. bringing disgrace and odium
upon the national capital. Providence
Hospital has successfully cared for thou
sands of our citizens In the past. 1 hope
she may be given greater opportunities in
the direction she has SO generously vol
unteered. WASHINGTON TOPHAM.

Ser Gift to Science.

Before her death, which occurred in Now York city in 1878, Mrs M. K. Benohley, tho widow of 9 former lieu tenant governor of Massachusetts, willed her body to the Weman's Medical col lege. According to the provisions of this queer will the body of Mrs. Benohley was to be carefully dissected and her skeleton hung in the college museum. As far as we have been able to learn, this is the only instance onreeord where an educated woman has deliberately sent her body to the dissecting room and her bones to the showrooms of a museum. We can cite several instances where the progressive class of women thinkers have given orders that their bodies should be cremated, but this is the only instance on record where a tai ented woman has made such gift to science.

 It is to be hoped that the Score. tary will deny this report at once.
