Committee on Organization.


Next in order came the report of the COM
mittee on organization, which recommended
the formation of a permanent society. with
a list of officers, the same as those now
serving, and a constitution and bylaws
An amendment was proposed inviting
commercial bodies similar to boards of
trade and chambers of commerce to send
representatives. The amendment was
adopted.
1t was further proposed by lady dele
gate that the Woman's Association of
Economics be included in the list and this
was further amended to comprise all pure
food and domestic science associations and
was adopted
proposition was made that the general
government be represented by a vice presi-
dent. Opposition was expressed to this by
a delegate because of the great increase in
the number of vice presidents, and also that
the general government was represented by
vice president from the District 1t was
explained that only one representative was
proposed, and the amendment was adopted
DIR. Wiley was nominated to represent the
United States government one Of the
vice presidents, and was unanimously elect
ed.
The report of the committee on organiza-
ton was then adopted as a whole.
Uniform Legislation.
A report from the committee on uniform
legislation and trade marks was presented
by Prof. Hamilton. The report pointed out
the Importance of having a system of uni
form marking of food articles and drugs
so as to show whether the article is pure
and whether 1t would be injurious to
health. The hope was expressed that if
such system WIS established then goods
thus branded could go to any part of the
country or abroad without further inspec-
ton, the brand being considered as a
sufficient guarantee of the quality
The committee asked for further time
in order that report might be submitted
at the next session of the convention.
Before adjourning the president called the
attention of the delegates to the reception
by the President at the White House this
afternoon. which was held at 2:30 O'Clock
The president further suggested that after
the reception the delegates call upon their
representatives in Congress in behalf of the
pure food bill.
The convention then adjourned.

The wishes of Reuben John Smith,
an eccentric man of II years, who
died last week at Amesburh, Mass,
are to be carried out in detail,
and he will be buried in chair,
wearing a SLOUGH hat, and his costly
marble tomb will be sealed up by
brickmasons. Through dread Of
being placed in the ground be built
a marble sarcophagus last fall. lie
arranged that his body should be
placed therein in a chair, and under
no consideration was it TO be put
in casket or buried in the ground.
The entrance will be sealed up with
wall of brick, the outer steel door
locked and the key destroyed. The
gentleman who had charge of Mr..

erration from real or fancied trou.
BILE. Last fall she attended the ST.
Helen's Hall at Portland and came
home Christmas to spend the holi-
days with her family. Yesterday
morning her mother started to at
tend Miss Monkeys funeral and
Medora was to take the baby down
to Mr.. Leland's Office where she
would meet her. In abou. half an
hour Medora appeared at the stage
office. She told Mr.. Leland, her
step-father, she would return in a
little while, turned back and kissed
the baby and went out. She passed
down Main street, recognizing a
number of acquaintance.
j. A. Neumeyer, who had been
down on the beach at the intersec-
ton of the rivers, as be reached the
railroad track was attracted to a
young girl who stood on the edge of
the river. She threw off her cape
and muff and wrung her hands as If
in despair. She started towards the
water, hesitated and again wrung
her hands despairingly and then
threw herself into the swift current
of the river. Mr.. Neumeyer ran
down on the beach and was within
ten feet of her as she was carried
down by the current. Her head
was at times out of the water and
Mr.. Neumeyer urged her to make
toward the shore. But, he says,
she would force her head under the
water and seemed determined to
avoid assistance. When she reached
the point where the two rivers meet
she went under and never arose.
AS soon as boat could be secured
searching parties went out aud all
the afternoon sympathetic friend $
dragged the river, bat withno avail.
On returning home Mrs. G. f.
Leland, the mother, found a note
from her dead girl bidding her
goodbye.
