city streets this week under the charge
of Oliver Dunn. They are much better

Jail. One of the prisoners who refused
to work was put in a solitary cell and

PARK BOARD
REFUSES site

The park board remained OBJ
durate last night and despite a
vigorous demand by a strong
committee of citizens that the
new historical building and Ferry
Museum be located on a corner of
Wright park the proposition was
turned down.
Mrs. H. G. Scott. Mrs. John @.
Mason, Mrs. Stanton Warburton
Of the council of women's clubs in
Tacoma, w. w. Seymour, w. H.
Gilstrap, P. G. Kaufman, l.. l..
Benbow, R L. Mccormick and
others were present and argued
for site in the park but the
board refused absolutely to agree
to the proposition.
The Chamber of Commerce
recommended the park site but
nothing moved the park board and
the whole plan was turned down.
Friends of the historical soci-
ETY. who want to get the building
started at once to stop the agita-
ton at Seattle for the removal
of both the historical society and
Ferry Museum to that city are
considerably wrought up over the
action of the park board.

structed by man are better made

sought in their construction. He
took as an example the human
eye, an organ upon which much
admiration has been lavished,
and quoted the statement of a
learned investigator to the effect
that any maker of optical in
struments who sent out such a
piece of work would certainly
have 1t thrown back ON his
hands.
Speaking of the widespread
dread of premature burial, DR..
Taylor said that in his experience
of so years as a coroner he had
been called upon to visit the
bodies of thousands of people pre-
sumed to be dead, and that not
one of them has ever falsified the
presumption. Certainly, he says,
when the present day undertaken
finishes his manipulations with
his embalming fluids, reanima-
ton in this world Is utterly out
of the question.

VERY PUNK WORK, THE MAKING OF THE
HUMAN BODY, SAYS THIS PROFESSOR

RICHMOND, Va, April g.
VIM. H. Taylor, M. d., professor
of chemistry and medical juris-
prudence at the Medical College
of Virginia. philosopher, scientist,
lecturer, author and coroner of
the city of Richmond for SO
years, startled the community by
delivering before his class a lee
ture on "The Dead Body" in
which he denied many popular
beliefs regarding the human body.
DR.. Taylor said that man might
as well look upon his descent
from the dog or the ass as the
ape. adding, facetiously, that his
audience might take their choice,
with much satisfaction, when they
came to realize what a horde of
scoundrels their immediate an
cestors of northern and central
Europe really were. The ape, says
this septuagenarian, behaves as
we'll as his code demands, but the
precursors of the Anglo-Saxon
race, despite the fact that they
knew better, were a set of as ar
rant knaves as the world has
ever known.
DIR. Taylor declared that the
human body is not the exalted
mechanism it is vaunted to be,
especially by pious people. Crit
ical examination of man, he said,
shows carelessness and bad work
manship from head to foot. Many

Owners of the tug Fearless
want the city to pay $4,000 for
services the boat has rendered in
fires along the waterfront in the
last eight years. A bill was
placed before the council last
night by the Tacoma Tug G

Athena, Ore, Sept. 1S.-The pastor
of the Christian church, encouraged
by number of his friends, opened a
small reading room on Main street
which proved so successful at the
close of the last school year that 1t
ing room in larger and more commo-
dious quarters.
The basement of the Christian
church is to be used for this purpose.
Many new features will be introduced
and it will be place where parents
can send their children with full con-
fidence that they will be surrounded
with the best of influence. One has
but to go down town after dismiss
sal of school to see dozen school
boys loafing to see the need of such
an institution. The people of Athena
feel that Mr.. Harris and the church
should be commended for this UNDER
taking and that the community
should show appreciation by liberal
donations to the expense fund. Mr..
Harris informs US that this work
will be enlarged just as rapidly as
the fund is increased. 1t is hoped
to add a shower bath to the plant and
to add other features that will make
the place attractive for young men
and boys. The room will be opened
by the first of October and will be
open for public inspection and patron
age.
The teachers of the schools spent
a very busy week in organization and
preliminary work and full prepara-
tions have been made for hard work
next week. The enrolment Friday

expected next week.
The enrolment by grades are:

The students are all enthusiastic
and willing to do anything in their
power to build up the school. All are
well pleased with the teachers. Prof.

thing in their power to get the school
started off right and to offer the stu
