To Keep Poisons Out of Dead Bodies.

At the suggestion of Coroner Dugan and
with the backing of District Attorney John
C. Bell and Attorney General Hampton L.
Carson, bill will be presented to the
present Pennsylvania legislature for the
purpose of securing a law making it mis-
demeanor for an undertaken to embalm a
body with any fluid containing arsenic, an
timony or any poison of similar nature.
The men who are back of the bill believe
that 1t will be passed without difficulty.
Should this prove true defense most re-
lied upon in big murder cases, where the
charge is death by the administration of
poison, will be swept away. There will be
no possibility of an attorney establishing
doubt as to the manner in which arsenic
came into body or of offering the defense
that the poison was introduced in the en-
balming fluid. Under the proposed bill, I'M
deftakers throughout the state of Pennsyl-
vania will be confined to the use of one
fluid for embalming purposes-formalde
hyde. Coroner Dugan declares that this
fluid, while known to contain no arsenic or
antimony, is as potent as a preservative
for a body as any of the fluids that have
beer used i'll the past

POLICE REFORM CRUSADE.
New York City Captain Suspended by
Commissioner McAdoo.

Police Capt. Robert A Tighe, against
whom charges of neglect of duty in connec-
ton with the recent raids in the Mercer
street precinct have been made, has been
suspended without pay by Commissioner
McAdoo. Capt. Tighe is made the subject
of five charges, conduct unbecoming an
officer. conduct injurious to public welfare,
neglect and disobedience of orders making
false reports to the commissioner, and
neglect of duty. In the specifications ac-
companying the charges it is alleged that
while Capt. Tighe was in command of the
Mercer street station, many places were
openly run for the purpose of selling pools
on races and other forms of gambling His
trial has been set for next Monday.
Following the announcement of the Sus-
pension of Capt. Tighe, Commissioner Nc
Adoo expressed his intention of taking
action that may result in the retirement
on pensions of a considerable number of
inspectors. The commissioner has decided
to order some of the oldest officers of that
rank before the board of surgeons to de-
termine whether they still physically
qualified to perform their duties. A con-
siderable number of the inspectors are civil
war veterans, who may only be retired for
physical disability.

The Bottle Gun.

From the Chicago Chronicle
While the process of quoting the troubled
waters by scattering oil on the surface has
been known and practiced for a long time,
there are constantly new means being de-
vised for the application of the Oil. The
latest thing of this character is the bottle
gun" which has been invented by Vice Adj
miral Guimares of the Brazilian navy, who
proposes to scatter oil on the water ahead
of the boat by its means. The gun is a
handy little piece, mounted on pivot car
riage which is bolted down to the deck so
that there is no recoil. 1t is made of bronze,
but the chamber at the breech, which con-
tains the propelling power is of steel. The
charge, in a brass central-fire cylinder, is
loaded into the gun from the rear, as 1t is a
breech-loading piece, with an interrupted
screw plug to close Ii. The bore of the gun
is of much greater diameter than the pow
der chamber and the projectile, which is
nothing more than an ordinary wine bottle
filed with sawdust stepped in oil, is en-
tered at the muZZle and rammed home. The
advantage of this is obvious, since there
would never be any difficulty in providing
q supply of these fragile projectiles. When
the gun is discharged the bottle is, of
course. broken and with its contents scat
tered over the water for considera Bile dis
lance. If fired ahead to form a smooth
pathway for the advancing vessel, 1t re-
uuires TO be discharged every five minutes,
but If the vessel Is stationary or lying to,
one round every twenty minutes is said to
be sufficient.

to be much purer form of saccharine than

At the recent exhibition of the Yamanaka

simply the delicate Japanese rice cakes.
A branded cherry or bit of pineapple is
frequently dropped in each cup before serv-

Senator in Jail.

Senator F4orne, who made holy

drunk during the entire session,
is rounded mp where he will have u
chance to sober up for some time to
come.
He is in the Hawthorne Jail on
the charge of selling whiskey to
Indians, in which event he will
probably pay Carson another visit
and if Judge HawleS gets whirl at
him he will be given cure at the
prison that will wipe out the test
for liquor for some time, and at
least sober him up.
Two years ago Thorne was one of
the the best workers in the Legis-
lative Halls. He was held in high
regard by the workingmen as he
had represented the Miners Union
in Tonopah as its president. 1t is
simply case of to much wbiskey.

and very "aful one. Some rich
heroic treatment as a term in Jail
