Human Remains Dug Out of the Grave
in England.

Human Remains Dug Out of the Gravel
in England.
An interesting discovery has been made
near Horncastle. England, says corre-
spondent. In the outskirts of the town Mr..
G. w. Smith, scotsman and greengrocer,
was employing laborer to dig gravel on
his premises About two feet below the
surface the mans ''pick' struck against
something hard, which, on investigation,
proved to be a leaden coffin. 1t was en-
bedded in the gravel and proved to be in
fairly good state of preservation. The
sides and ends, however, had lost cohe-
sion between them selves and the lid, the
latter being also broken in the process of
uncovering it. Owing to this want OF CO.
hesion the upper soil had fallen in and
filled the interior. This was carefully re-
moved when there was disclosed to view a
perfect skeleton, since pronounced by
medical experts to be that of a female.
The coffin was five feet two inches in
length, the body, of course, being rather
shorter. Last week as the gravel digging
was continued, a second leaden coffin
was exhumed about yard to the
north of the former. This was in very
much the same condition, the lid only
being rather more broken in extricating
it. This coffin was 5 feet inches in
length. The bones were larger, and are
pronounced to be those of a male. Some
twenty-four years ago three leaden cof-
inns were found within 100 yards of the
same site while workmen were digging
with view to laying the foundation of

BOTH GLASSES VICTORIOUS.
Polytechnic Juniors Won at Baseball
and Middles at Football.

Polytechnic Juniors Won at Baseball
and Middies at Football.
Two rival classes of the Polytechnic
High School played baseball and football
at Central Park yesterday afternoon be-
fore an enthusiastic crowd OF youthful
spectators.
The baseball game resulted in victory
for the Junior Class. The score was IL to
7. In the first inning the Junior Glass
made five runs, while the Middle Glass
was shut out. Among the noticeable fea-
lures of the match were the playing of
Duden of the Middle team and the pitch
ing of Dorothy of the Junior nine.
In the football match the Middle Class
men retrieved themselves and defeated
their rivals by a score of IA to 0. Three
touchdowns were made but no goals were
kicked and Keene of the Junior team was
compelled to score a safety, giving the
Junior eleven two points. Two of the
touchdowns were made by Duden, who.
by the way. is one OF the members of the
famous little Y M. G. A. team. and one
was made by Nathan. In individual play
ing Duden and Hammer, halfbacks for
the Middle Class, and Holcombe, guard
for the Junior Glass did creditable work.
The officials were: Bishop, referee !;
Brickett, umpire; Pope and Police Ser
geant Michael Joseph Conboy, Hnesmen.

THE BARRIERS ALL
FAVOR THE BILL
The Measure to Have Bar
bers Appointed Is
Popular.
Officers of the Organizations of
the Craft Speak With
Emphasis.
They Declare Strongly and Unani.
mously Against F,va-Cent Shops
and Low.Priced Work.

There is much interest concerning the
bill which has been introduced into the
Senate by General John II. Dickinson to
provide that it shall be unlawful for any
person who is not now practicing barber
in this State to commence such practice
without certificate from board OF ex-
aminers to be appointed by the Governor.
Unlike the majority of acts which make
their appearance in Sacramento, this one
seems to have no visible opposition on
the par. OF those principally concerned.
Conrad Troall, at $50 Clay street, who
is secretary of the BARRIERS Protective
Union, speaking for the craft yesterday,
said: "This bill m eets with the indorse-
ment of the BARRIERS not only OF this City,
but of the State, and / might add, OF the
Pacific Coast.
'The question has been discussed at our
meetings. and it was eventually decided
to consult with General Dickinson, as a
lawyer and legislator, to see what could
be done to prevent scab Scent shops, and
at the same time keep the profession up
to standard of respectability and living
wages. Out of this consultation the pres
ent bill has resulted.
S. Fuchs, at 325 Grant avenue, who Is
the employment secretary of the BARRIERS
ASSOCIATION of the Pacific Coast and vice.
president of the BARRIERS Protective
Union, spoke in a similar strain. He was
very pronounced in his opposition to the
existence of and the class OF work done at
the BARRIERS College" at 1915 Howard
street, where men and women are turned
out as full fiedged BARRIERS at short notice.
This place. he said, ''is dragging
down our craft. In it men, boys and girls
are taken in indiscriminately if they will
put up certain sum of money and are
turned out full-hedged BARRIERS after few
weeks work TO make room for others who
enter on the same terms. The result OF
this is that those so turned out OF this
college consider themselves BARRIERS until
they get into tirst-class shop.
"They cannot hold positions in first
class shops. They are discharged, and
the n xt thing they do is to open 5-cent
shop for themselves or go to work for one
of this class already established.
"All OF this has not only injured our
business. but it has brought 1T down to
the very dust, and a decent living Is not
left for good workmen. Consequently the
bill now introduced has been sanctioned
by the association of the coast. and hope
it will pass and become law"
A. ]. Stein of 604 Montgomery street
and other BARRIERS also favor the bill upon
the same lines as those expressed by the
two former speakers.

sands, one as high as 5000 and some as
low as 234. When the pumpkin was cut
on Saturday evening in the presence of a
large crowd and the seeds taken out there
were just 264 in it. Thomas Rambo, the
veteran blacksmith. residing at IS South
Second street, was the nearest guesser,
his number being 263, and he took the
contents of the box.
Mr.. Rambo had other guesses in the
box lower than the winning one, but sew
eral nights before the cutting of the pump
kin he had dream in which he saw five
men counting the seeds in the same pump
kin and overheard them say 263 would
win. The next morning he went to the
saloon and placed that mum Der In the box.
Mr.. Rambo said to a Times reporter that
he did not believe in dreams or spooks.

Members Must Soon Choose Seven Di-
rectors From Fifteen Nominees.
A new board of seven directors for the
Mechanics Institute Library is to be
elected on February %. the last Tuesday
of the month. The voting will be done
by those of the 1900 mem bers that may
care to present themselves at the library
on that day.
There are fifteen nominees from which
the seven will be chosen bv what is known
as preference system. Each member in
dcates on his ballot his first, Sc econd and
succeeding choices for one place. The
ballots are then classified and counted,
and tirst-choice men not having certain
per cent of the total nun Der of votes cast
are eliminated until the seven hig hest are
determined in conjunction with the sec
ond-choice votes.
Four of the nominees-Denicke, Cole,
Formulas and Kendrick-are members Of
the present board. Some of the mem bers
OF the library particularly conversant
with the successful conduct of affairs in
the past are very desirous that Mr.. Dem
icke be reelected, and are worrying lest
in the scattering of votes among the
many candidates the library should lose
the services of one of its most energetic
workers.
Following are the nominees and the
business interests they represent:

nonconformist chapel. No care was
taken of these, and they were disposed of
as old lead. Several Roman cinerary urns
have been dug up at different times in
this locality, as well as many Roman
coins and other antiquities. The main
questionIs, Were these lead coff1ns Romsn
or Christian? On the same side Of the
town there is a public recreation ground
called the 'Wong''-an old Saxon word
for field" Were they Saxons? From
their lying east and west the correspond
ent is inclined to consider them Christian.
Their somewhat rude construction, as
we'll as the absence of any kind of inscrip-
ton, also incline him to suppose that they
were originally inner ''shells," incIosed in
a wooden exterior, but no trace of de-
eayed wood was perceptible.-Boston

Other RevisionS A so Male in the
Proposed Amendment for
Judicial Reform

The San Francisco Bar Association held
its final meeting for the revision OF its
proposed constitutional amendment for
judicial reform yesterday afternoon.
There was a full attendance, and the
conference was spirited throughout.
Section Is was taken up first. It de-
fines the jurisdiction and powers of the
Superior Courts and does not differ ma
terially from the present law. One i'm
portant item provides that injunctions
and writs of prohibition may be issued
and served on legal holidays and nom
judicial days. The section was adopted
after the elimination of few redunda ant
expressions.
From section IA the following clause was
cast out in its entirety:
The Judges of the Superior Court, residing
or noding sessions OF the court within any
county in which more han two sessions of the
court shall be held at the same time, shall by
secret ballot choose from their own number a
presiding Judge, who shall continue to pre-
Side during his term of office as Judge of the
court
For the clause stricken out the follow
ing substitute, sent in by Judge SeawelI,
was inserted:
In every county where there are more than
two Judges OF the Superior Court for such
county, they shall choose from their own
number presiding Judge, who may be re-
moved at their pleasure.
The next section was adopted as recon-
mended by the committee. 1t reads as
follows:
The jurisdiction of the Supreme Court and
OF the District Courts OF Appeal, the Judges of
the Superior Courts and the Justices and
Judges OF all the other courts of record, eX-
ceptlng those hereinafter designated as
trustees OF the bar, may be removed by con-
current resolution OF both houses OF the Legis-
lature, adopted by Jwo-thirdS vote OF each
mouse; but no removal shall be made by vir-
tue OF this section unless the cause thereof
and the votes by ayes and noes be entered on
the journal, nor unless the party complained
OF mas been served with copy OF the COM
plalnt against him and had an opportunity OF
being heard in his deiense. Trustees of the
bar and all other judicial Offices within this
State may be removed in the manner herein.
after provided.
Sections 16 to 81 inclusive were consid-
cred as whole, they relating generally
to the same subiect-the creation of a
court of disci pline. In their considera-
tion breezy debate ensued.
1t was this proposed court of discipline
that came under the condemnation of
Judge Van r. Paterson in the columns
of THE CALL a few DAYS ago.
Attorney William ]. Herrin began the
debate by moving that the portion relat-
| ing to the establishment of court OF

nagan, the proprietors, were seen. They
were in favor of the bill, with but one
single exception, and that was that the
term of two years service as an apprentice
is too long.
BARRIERS say that in the So called Barber
College five out of fourteen apprentices
are women, and they shave and cut the
hair of all who apply without charge to
get practice, and by doing the work for
nothing the apprentices find subjects to
operate on.

Winning Guesser.

Winning Guesser.
Several months ago, when pumpkins
were ripe, William Wint, proprietor OF
the saloon at $50 Penn avenue, bought a
large yellow one with green stripes and
placed box alongside of it for gusseses
as to the number OF seeds it contained.
The fruit of the cornfield was not to be
cut until December &c, and then the per-
son who guessed the correct number or
nearest to it was to receive the contents
of the box. Many of the patrons of the
house put number of guesses in the
box, each costing cents, and when
the box was opened there was $6 e5 in
it. Some of the guesses ran up,to thou

Attorney John A Wright didn't like
this proposition little bit, and made a
lengthy speech In favor of a disciplinary

others, who as strongly opposed so extern

court.
The aftermath of the debate was mani
fest in the result of a vote against giving
the proposed tribunal power to discipline
the judiciary.
Next Monday committee OF four will
meet and draft the proposed amendment
as revised, when it will be taken TO Sacra-
mento and laid berore the Judiciary Com
mittee of the Legislature. Judge R. Y.
Hayne will act as chairman of the COM
mittee, and it is probable that the three
attorneys composing the body that
drafted the original document will be his
associates. They are John A. Wright,
A. L. Rhodes and Columbus Bartlett.

How Animals Make Their roi1et..

Cats, large and small, make the most
careful toilets of any class of animals,
excepting some of the opossums. The
lions and tigers wash themselves in ex-
actly the same manner as the cat, wetting
the dark, indiarubber-like ball of the FORE
foot and The toe and passing it over the
face and behind the ears. The foot
is thus at the same time face-sponge
ana brush, and the rough tongue com bs
the rest of the body. Hares also use their
feet to wash their faces, and the hare's
foot is so suitable for a brush that it is
generally used to apply the ''paint' to
the face for the SHAKESPEARE Moments.
