Will D|SS[C| BODY
Cadaver of the Oldest Man In
the State to Be Given
to Science
JAMES BARE LIVED 1o7 YEARS
Dies in the Poorhouse in Woodbury.
County and Body Will be Turned
Over to Medical school-Effect Of
Age on the Human System is to be
Studied.
Snecial to Times-Renuhlican.

| Special to Times Republican.
Sioux City, April 12.-The body OF
James Bare, who. after having lived
1 107 years and having seen the light OF
three different centuries before he sue
cumbed to old age and senile decay al
| the Woodbury. county poor farm nearly
two months ago, is now at the West
colt morgue. Within a few days ii
will be consigned to the dissecting
rooms of the Sioux City Medical Col
| lege.
Local physicians say the body is
without doubt the oldest cadaver ever
given to an American medical institu-
ton and the reception of the body in
the local school is being anticipated
with the expectation that a large num-
Der of interesting experiments win be
made. The effect of extreme age upon
the human anatomy will be inquired
into in this case which offers such adj
vantages in this line.
Since the death of the old man the
body has been lying in the morgue here
waiting the expiration of the sixty
days which must elapse before the body
of any person can be turned over by
the authorities to and medical institu-
ton While it is known that the old
man, who for years had been living as
a county charge, had outlived all OF
his relatives and has no one to claim
his body, yet the authorities are salts
flying the text of the law in waiting the
required length of time
When the body is turned over to the
officers of the medical college 1t vii.
be treated with considerab BILE caution.
Just what disposition will he made of 1t
is not determined. altho all of the doc
tors agree that the cadaver, whose
owner had attained such years, is es-
pecially valuable to medical science.
The body has been carefully preserv-
ed, and the old man. as he lies on the
slab in the morgue has natural and
life like appearance. His wcn features
and his white hair. together with his
wasted body, show the effect OF his long
life.
James Bare had been for years an
inmate of the county farm. But little
was known of the old man except that
he was born two years before the death
of George Washington, and that he had
passed thru the longest period OF life
accorded anyone, as far as is known.
In the state OF Iowa.
His birthplace was in Ireland. and
he lived for a number of years before
coming to this county In some town lr
the southern part of the state. During
the civil war he lived in Alabama, and
he used to recount in his childish way
the story Of the war, to the other in
mates at the farm. His mind became
weakened in his latter years. His only
alteration was the belief that he was
possessed Of wonderful knowledge. He
wanted to write books, articles and
instructions regarding important mat
tiers. He showed signs of a good edu-
cation

Bouquet for American Girl.

The American Girl is the real thing
Physically, mentally, or from any 9TH
/ er point Of vantage, she has her foreign
sisters beaten a city block, and up 10
| the present has only been half trying
at that. Not only is the American girl
easy to look at, but she has think
receptacle which Is just satiated with
valuable ideas which she can distrib-
ute il necessary to make front in in
tellectual circles.
These and few other bouquets have
been tossed out by Professor Robert
Baird Of Northwestern University. and
what he does not know about girls he
is not going to tell.
Recently the professor had been delv-
ing into the archives of Greek history
and mythology, and has come to the
conclusion that the ancients never saw
the time they could compare their fem
mime talen with the present American
beauty show.
Diana, the leading high jumper and
lond distance runner among the goods
of her time. could be given ten-yard
handicap by the modern Chicago CIR.
and would then be left at the pos.
in the estimation of the professor.
Minerva, goddess OF mental mechan-
les, If alive today, would be considered
feeble minded in comparison with the
present product Of Vassar and Welles-
ley.
In the United States alone" said
the professor, are the women of a
type which can be compared with the
old Greek goddesses in the glory of
feminine beauty. These two facts
the supremacy of our women in phys
zeal and intellectual development -
are due to the liberty which is given
them. American women are the freest
in the world. Their husbands and
brothers have given them liberty AMI
they are not abusing 1t, but using it

Where They All Agree.

A few years ago Joseph Medill. pro-
prietor of the Chicago Tribune was es-
corting a number of Illinois country
editors thru his immense newspaper
establishment and explaining to them
the daily routine Of the different de-
partments
How many people do you employ
Mr.. Medill?" asked one Of the inter-
ested pencil pushers.
"Oh, in the neighborhood of $780," re-
joined the noted editor.
THE head of each department. must
have everything wonderfully systema-
tized that so many men should work
in perfect harmony" said the country
editor.
"Well, the system is all right" re-
piled Mr. Medill, but the harmony
part Is another question. The compos-
ing room finds fault with the proof
room, the stereotyping room finds fault
with the composing room and the
pressroom finds fault with the stereo-
tipping room. But continued Mr.. Me-
dill there is one thing upon which all
departments agree to a man.
and may / ask what that is?" inter-
rogated one Of the visitors.
That" replied the big editor, sis
that that business manager of this pa
per is a. fool, and don't know a
thing about the printing business.
