SITE OF OREMATORIUM
PLACED IN WASHINGTON ASY.
LUM GROUNDS; COST $4,000.

The crematorium, for which Congress ap-
propriated $4,000 at the last session. with
provision that it should be placed on the
Washington Asylum grounds, will be To-
Gated at the northern end Of the asylum
grounds on D street southeast Commits
sioners mcfarland and Biddle have reached
this location after carefully examining the
ground and looking specially at the sites
which were suggested, one at the north end
and one at the south end. Tentative plans
have been made for the building, which will
be neat In character.
The act provides that the crematorium
shall be used for incineration Of the bodies
Of those having died from smallpox, Asiatic
cholera, typhus fever, the plague, leprosy,
CHAMBERS, scarlet fever, diphtheria or cpl
demic cerebro-spinal meningitis, which
come into the custody of any officer, en-
ploye or agent of the District of Columbia
to be disposed of at public expense. 1t is
also provided that the crematorum shall
be "of size sufficient for the incineration Of
all bodies that cannot, except at public ex-
pense be disposed of within reasonable
time after death, and for the incarceration
of such other bodies as may be presented for
that purpose by the persons having custody
thereof" and also provides that fees snail
be collected where the bodies are not neces-
sarily to be disposed of at public expense:
AS this is to be practically the first mun1c-
ipal crematorum continuously and general
ly operated in this country, there is much
interest in it in cities elsewhere. Partial
and limited undertakings of this character
have been tried without much success in two
three other cities.

It Was a Grizzly.
To the Editor o. The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star:
In your report Monday of the proceedings
Of the California State Associations cele-
bration on Sunday evening Of the fifty
sixth anniversary Of the admission Of the
state into the Union there occurred an err
ror which to the ordinary mortal may not
be of any consequence, but to the citizen
Of the state upon whose escutcheon Is borne
the representation of the mighty grizzly,
whose native heath is the golden coast and
under whose inspiration the brave bear flag
warriors in 1916 conquered the country. the
naming of that noble beast a BLACK bear"
Is calculated to arouse positive Indignation.
In the name of the people of California. its
residents in Washington make earnest pro-
test against. this substitution of the measiy
little black bear for the gigantic and in
vincible grizzly Nothing was said at the
socety's meeting about 'black bear flag.
and if you will kindly rectify this mistake
1t will tend to allay not only the indignant
native sons of the commonwealth by the
sunset sea, but will still the perturbed souls
Of the now-dead warriors who fought SO
bravely under the uncouth emblem known
as the bear flag A. J. BOYER.

In the new spelling of list of 300 words

S:45 o'clock, attracted by the appearance
there of several companies of the fire de-
partment. Owners and occupants of the
buildings along the river front became I'M
easy by the sounding of the alarm, fearing
there was danger of disastrous conf1agra-
ton in that section. They were happily
disappointed, however, when. they were told
that the fire companies had gone to the
river front in response to false alarm.
The police of the fourth precinct, who
also responded, made an effort to find the
person who had turned in the false alarm
and arrested colored man and woman on
suspicion. The affair is being further in
yestigated.
