AGAINST CREMATION.
Many Dincuities Met by Its Advocates
In England.

Many Difficulties Met by Its Advocates
In England.
Cremation had many more difficult
ties to meet and much stronger preju-
dices to overcome in England than
have confronted it here. but the Brit-
ish advocates OF this method OF dispos-
ing of the dead were persistent, and
already their views. if not exactly pop
ular yet, have ceased to excite active
opposition. The Cremation society Is
now % years old. 1t took four years
Of work and argument to bring about
the building OF the first crematorium'
and six years more passed before an
incineration was publicly performed
under the society's auspices. The mum
Der of incinerations has increased
gradually from three In 1853 to Z4O IN
1898, and the total has reached l,2S3.
The argument against cremation upon
which most emphasis has been laid by
its reasonable, as distinguished from
its sentimental, opponents, has been
the danger OF destroying the evidence
of crime. To meet this objection,
which is real, though of slight practical
Importance, the English society has
assumed the obligation of investigat-
ing the condition of death in the case
of every body for the incineration Of
which application is made, and 1t has
now secured the services of distin-
guished pathologist for consultation
purposes in cases of unusual doubt or
difficulty, and for making necropsies
when required. The Medical Record,
commenting on these facts, says 1t is
an interesting question whether crema-
ton, while remaining optional in
cases of death from ordinary causes,
should not sooner or later become
obligatory when death is due to such
transmissible diseases as smallpox,
scarlet fever, diphtheria, cholera, ty-
phoid fever, tuberculosis, etc, at all
events in the chief centers of popula-
ton" Such a course, 1t says, would
seem amply justified to sustain the
active efforts being made in every d.
rection to limit the ravages and re-
strict the dissemination of preventable
disease.-New York Times.

Citizens Of Belgium who neglect or
refuse to vote are promptly arrested,
tried and heavily fined for their un-
willingness to participate in the poll
tics of the nation. The Belgian law
enforced in this country, would cause
a marvellous shaking-up of serene old
fossils, "lofty-minded" people who af-
feet to despise politics and men who
never go to the polls when the weather
is rainy. 1t would also put a new COM
plexion upon the chances of campaigns
in almost every locality.

A soldiers widow went the other day
to the Emperor of Austria to beg the
granting of pension to which she was
not, through some technicality, legally
entitled. He heard her appeal and
granted it. But as she was leaving the
castle some one told her that the en-
peror had not signed his name upon
her written petition, and that therefore
she must, in spite of his kind words,
consider it rejected. At that she burst
into fit of weeping, so vehemently that
the emperor heard her from his win
dow, and came out to see what was the
matter. On being informed. he gave
her thousand gulden from his own
purse, and assured her that her petit
ton was granted, for, he added, "An
emperor's word needs not the confir-
nation of his signature" as the COM
mon saying has it, Ellis word is as
good as his bond" 1t was a little in
cident, although great to the poor
woman, and great, too, in its slgnifi-
canoe of a character that is loved by
the people above those of most other
sovereigns.

It is one OF the curiosities of human
justice that a man against whom the
most indubitable evidence Of murder
could be brought might go scot free
through such clerical error as the
writing of wrong given name in the
indictment. The defendant Becker,
lately on trial in Chicago, made several
confessions of the murder Of his wife;
but perhaps the most important point
in his case just nof turns on the mis-
take made in drawing the indictment.
The dead woman's name was Theresa
Becker. The indictment read Elizabeth
Becker, and positive evidence that the
accused man committed the crime
might finally be overthrow by this
slip of the pen. No one but the law
yers really knows why.
