! PETRIFIED BODY ExHuMED

Several physicians were much inter-
ested in the body of Mrs. Josephine
Eenshaw, who died in 1870. when she
was seventy years old. which was yes
terday exhumed in an almost perfect
state Of petrifcation from the old Pres
byterian cemetery in Samuel Street,
West Farms, Borough of the Bronx. 1t
was taken up by William Butler, an
undertaken of One Hundred and Seven
ty-seventh street and the Boston Road,
and is one of the last of a number which
have been removed to make way fof
the widening of the street.
The undertaken found that the coff1h
in which 1t had been buried had entirely
disappeared. Among those whom he in
vited to view the strangs phenomena
was DR.. Eugene Monaghan, Borough
superintendent of the department of
health DR.. Monaghan said 1t was
remarkable case, and that the body
doubtless had been buried in stratum
of clay of peculiar composition which
had worked the change. Before night
Mr.. Butler had re-interred the body in
Woodlawn cemetery.
Mrs. Henshaw was the wife of an
army officer who went to the civil war
and whose fate is still a mystery. He

BRIGHT IDEAS OF
MONTANA EDITORS
To Remedy an Evil.

The postoff1ce department Is about to
remedy an evil that has too long pre-
vailed in the letting of star route con-
tracts. About he middle of September
the postoffice department will advertise
for proposals for carrying the mails on
all start routes in Nebraska, Montana,
Iowa. South Dakota. Wyoming and all
other western states, the contracts to
cover a period of four years. In the
new letting OF contracts the department
will require that bidders shall live on or
in the vicinity of the routes upon which
they bid. thus putting an end the spec
ulative bidding which has prevailed IN
the past. whereby the eastern contractors
have secured majority of the western
contracts at low figures, depending upon
local sub-contractors to perform the
work. The wrong in the past methods has
been explained to the department by the
people Of the far west but without any
attempt to correct the abuse Hereto
fore a man from Arkansas or Tennessee
seeing the bids advertised, goes to Wash
ington, puts in a. low bid without having
any knowledge Of the country or the con-
ditions which he will have to meet. This
is bad enough in itself, but when It is
considered that the contractor, nine times
out of ten, has no intention of performing
the work himself, but gets the contract
with the view of sub-letting, it is easy
to discover why the west is SO often ours
ed with such abominable mail service
The original contractor and the sub-con-
tractor were both figuring to make mon
ey on their jobs and ultimately the peo-
pie dependent on a star route service
were to. she the sufferers. And the
shame of it is that the government mas
been responsible for it. What few star
routes there are in this country shan
have the very best service possible ana
the best way to secure this is by barring
the spectators, who care nothing for the
people to be served, and recognize only
local bidders who are familiar with the
work and the costs of maintaining a
decent service.-Fort Benton River Press.

DECLINES TO HEAR PETITION
Judge Clancy Sends the Lamm-Mac-
Ginniss Suit to the United
Statna Court

Judge Clancy has declined to hear the
petition Of John MacGinniss and Daniel
Lamm for the appointment Of receiver

an order enjoining the officers Of the
Parrot and Amalgamated companies
from voting Parrot, stock at any meet
ing of the Amalgamated company. His
decision was rendered to-day.
Shortly after the action was COM
menced the defendants asked the Judge
to send it to the United States court
and the request was granted. The
plaintiffs then filed motion asking
the court to vacate the order of reomval
and it was argued about a week ago.
In passing upon this motion to-day the
judge said he believed 1t to be his duty
to not hear the petition. 81 asft'
THE order of removal has been made"
said he. land I shall let Judge Knowles
pass upon it. I do not want to hear
it. If Judeg Knowles decides that it
is a case for the district court to hear
he can send it back"
Lamm and MacGinniss each hold 40
shares of Parrot stock and are opposed
to the proposed absorption of the prop
erty of the company by the Anal
gamated.

Organizing for Work.

The national irrigation movement IS
being taken hold of with vigor by this
people of the west. Southern California
has organized a branch of the National
Irrigation association, and is recruiting
members rapidly. mostly from business
houses. Members pledge themselves to
not only support the movement. but
agree to urge their eastern correspond
ents to join the association and lend 1t
their support. A favorite method OF Sc
curing the attention of the eastern busi-
ness man is for the western merchant,
whenever he sends check east in pay
ment of a bill of goods, to write per-
sonal letter calling attention to western
development, and to the great increase
of business which would follow the adop-
ton of a national irrigation policy, and
soliciting eastern cooperation to secure
the enactment of adequate federal legis-
lation.
The work is being pushed by the Ma
tional Irrigation association Of organizing
branches in other states along these
lines. The association is becoming q

further prosecuting dispossess proceed

under foreclosure. Luft claimed to be
legally entitled to the rents Of the prem

owner, to whom he paid five months
rent in advance. up to and including
July, 1901. Justice Blanchard, while
holding that Luft was not entitled to
the rents as against the receiver, because
he had noice of the existence OF the
mortgage, 1t being recorded long prior
to the making Of the lease, nevertheless
dismisses the proceedings on the ground
that the application should have been
made in the form of a motion In the
foreclosure action. Judge Blanchard also
dismisses proceedings to punish for con-

pointing the receiver Luft has violated.
and certainly his attorney in advising
him and looking after what he consid-
cred his clients interests was guilty Of
no contempt. The receiver is> given
