WELL PRESERVED

BY Pstrincati0n Wss the Body Of Ell
Beach, Who Had Been Buried for
Eleven Years.
BUcYRUs, O., June IA petrified
body, perfect in its preservation, was
exhumed Saturday near this city.
Relatives desired to take up the body
Of Eli Beach, who had been buried
for the past eleven years in the Whet-
stone township cemetery. 1t was de-
sired to remove the remains to the
family lot in the Gallon cemetery.
When the grave was opened the dis
covered was made that the body was
petrified, and it took eight strong men
to lift it. MIR. Beach was engaged in
the saloon business, and weighed 400
pounds when alive. The body was in q
good state OF preservation, the features
being almost as natural as life. A
peculiar circumstance was that the
right foot was broken off, it being q
mystery how 1t happened. Two other
bodies were also removed at the same
time, but they were almost entirely
decayed.

The Newberry library intended to
have a manuscript of genealogy of
every family in Chicago, from that OF
Policeman John P. Aafiei, first in the
directory, TO that of Polisher John
Zywicky, whose name rounds out the
st, and the institution has taken a
means to secure its end, as unique as
it is effective.
Assistant Librarian Rudolph has
sent a letter to the principal of every
grammar and high school in the city
asking that each pupil of sufficient age
be requested to prepare written ac-
count Of his or her family, beginning
with the grandparents and bringing it
down to the present generation.
These manuscripts are to be fled in

are to be indexed SO they may be re-
