PREPARED BODIES
FOR DISSECTION
Man Who Holds the Record Is
Dead at Ann ArbOr.
CANTON BOYS KNEW HIM
For fifty Years He Has Received and
Prepared Two Thousand Bodies
For Dissection For the
Students.

Ann Arbor boys Of this city, who at
tended the university of Michigan, well
remember the familiar form Of doc"
Nagele, the janitor of the anatomical
laboratory. Last Saturday he died.
This interesting old man was we'll
known to every student Of the univer-
sity, whether he was connected with the
medical department or not. The Cleve-
land Leader of Sunday has an interest
ing article concerning him and says:
One of the most familiar figures
about the University Of Michigan cam
pus passed away Saturday in Doc
Nagele, for over fifty years janitor of
the anatomical laboratory.
In the old days of body snatching
the little old man figured in many ex-
citing though CHASTITY incidents. His
duty then, as in later years, was to re-
ceive the bodies presented at the dis
secting room door and prepare them for
the students busy scapel. He asked
no embarrassing questions Of those
bringing the cadavers to the institution
and watched his uncanny storehouse
with the earnestness of a bulldog. He
was wont to tell how the body Of a rel
ative of ex-President Harrison once
icii iuto Ills care, anu tIldl tle OIllCeTs
forced him to bring out body after body
till the right one was found and identi-
fled 1t by a glove accidentally left or
one hand.
In fifty years Nagele prepared for dis
section over 1000 bodies. Although not
an educated man, Nagele gained a sur
prising knowledge of anatomy during
his work, and many medical student
now practicing physician about the
country, can remember the gentle ad-
vice and needy assistance of the old
janitor. Three years ago the regents
pensioned their old servant, since which
time he has had no duty save that OF
ringing the hand bell, which itself is q
relic Of the old days, calling the stu
dents to their class rooms.
Nagele has always claimed that al
his death his body would go to his
boys for dissection, but his will has not
been opened and the disposition of his
remains is yet In doubt. His was d
queer life, but, in spite of its ghastly
character, one which endeared him tc
thousands of students with whom he
came in contact.

THE ORDERS
ARE ISSUED
For the Encampment of the
Eighth Regiment.
TO BE NAMED CAMP KEIFFER"
In Honor of the Chaplain of the Regiment
Who Died at Camp Alger In 1898
Some Of the General
Orders.
TO BE NAMED CAMP KEIFFER'

Col. Edward Vollrath, of Bucyrus, of
the Eighth regiment, has issued his for
NAL orders for the encampment of the
regiment, which is to be held at New
Philadelphia from August to 10.
The camp will be named Camp Kief-
fer" in honor Of the beloved chaplain
Of the regiment, who yielded his life in
his country's service. He died at Camp
Alger in June, 1898, while the regiment
was in the U. S. volunteer service for
the war with Spain.
Among the provisions of the general
orders appear the following:
"An troops will appear with full uni
form and equipment, baggage, how
ever, will be limited by strict military
necessity. This is a military encamp-
ment and one Of the lessons to be
learned Is that of comfort with the least
possible encumbrance. Civilian attire
must not be brought to the camp, nor
any part thereof worn by the troops
during the encampment.
"The utmost neatness and cleanliness
Is enjoined upon all members of the
command during the encampment. The
entire camp must at all times be kept
clean, and on breaking camp and be-
fore leaving, the entire ground must be
thoroughly policed.
"Messes will be arranged by compa-
nies. The band and non commissioned
staff will together constitute a sepa-
rate mess.
Each company commander will send
a detail Of one private, and companies
B, d, e, H, X, and M each also one
sergeant, to report to the quartermaster
upon the camp ground at New Philadel-
phia, as early as possible on Friday
August 3. This will constitute the reg
ular quartermaster's corps as author
| lied by law, and will receive pay for
extra days not exceeding six. In addi-
ton to the above, each company and the
band will at the same time and at their
per diem expense send a further detail
of one private to report to the quarter
master at the same time and place
These details must consist Of reliable
and capable men, must carry one days
rations, will be subject to the order o1
the quartermaster, and will travel by
the shortest and most convenient
routes. Each company should send
with its detail one ak or sledge."

FRANCHISE FOR
A PIPE LINE.
Natural Gas Will Go Into the
City Of Alliance.
COMMISSIONERS GIVE RIGHT
1t VIII be Pipod From the Wells 1t the
Andrew Thomas Farm Near Home-
worth-Mors Wells to be Put Down
by Morgan Engineering Co.


Within sixty days from date Alliance
will have natural gas. A petition was
presented to the county commissioners
Monday monring from the Morgan En-
gineering company OF that city asking
for franchise for the laying Of a pipe
line from the gas wells near Homework
on the Andrew Thomas farm to their
plant in the city Of Alliance. They have
already secured the franchise from the
Columbiana county commissioners and
after reading the petition Monday morn
ing Mr. Johnson, Of the Stark county
commissioners, moved that the right of
way asked for be granted. Mr.. Craw-
ford seconded the motion and 1t was
carried unanimously.
Under this privilege the company has
the right to pipe the gas into Alliance
and to use 1t at their works and also to
sell 1t to the public at large. Two good
wells are flowing lots of gas In the
Homework field and others will be put
down at once. For the present or at the
opening of the pipe line at Alliance the
gas will be used at the plant Of the
Morgan Engineering company only but
Il there is enough gas to supply others
It will be done.

foreign, are coming in to Shanghai,
and our house sees many of them. 1
am impressed with the sincerity of our
Christians. One very poor woman
lives on the edge of the settlement,
among the rowdy class. They told her:
We'll kill you yet. You are one Of the
Jesus church people," But she comes
to all the meetings just the same, and
last Saturday in pouring rain was one
Of the small congregation. l do not
know of any Of our people who are
turning away-some seem to be grow
ing stronger in the faith. One who has
tried us by utter neglect of church
services for months, came last Sunday
as If she had always been coming. There
is no real danger here in Shanghai, l
suppose, but the air is full of so many
rumors that peoples hearts sometimes
fail them. l believe the coming of the
Lord is nearer than we think. Affairs
in the North are in an awful condition.
1t seems so strange to the educated and
thinking class of Chinese that England
and the United States have let the
empress dowager go on so without even
a protest.
CHARTERED A SHIP.
June z5.-NeWS mas come Oh the Durn-
ing Of the Waihien station-the foreign
ers all escaping. DR.. FAIRIES does not
get definite news, but the United States
consul at Cheefoo chartered Japan
ese boat to go for the missionaries in
that region. People are leaving the in
terror of China, and even Shanghai by
the thousands. We have different COM
panies coming in almost every day.
Some find places here, others go on to
Japan. 1t seems as If every precau-
tion has been taken for the safety of
this part of China, by both Chinese and
foreign officials. The great fear Is the
effect of reverses in the north when the
rowdy unimployed class join the Boxers,
for pillage, etc. A refugee Chinese boy
from Tien Tsin has come to be with
us for while. He Is helping to clean
up this morning. His family were in
the massacre in a sense, but got away
safely. The Japanese are proving such
helpers at the north, the Russians too.
This will bring the soldiers of the world
together. The great unknown items
just now are about Peking-no news for
ever so long. We have many dear
friends there. Mr.. Fitch, Robert and
lisa are up in the hills in our little
cottage, but this trouble may bring
them back at any time. Joy and Alice
expect to sail on the Empress" July
20th, for the United States, to continue
their education at Wooster. My love
to all the dear friends at home.
