SECRET JUST OUT ABOUT A DOCTORS WEIRD
FRATERNITY WITH FANTASTIC RITUAL
Organization Never Before II card OF Chapters In
Many Cities and Originated in ChicagO---Nfenl-
oers Give Bodies to Science, Then flames.

This strange fraternity had its In
ception at Hahnemann College, in
this city, In 1878. During the thirty
one years of its existence its weird
teachings and practices have been a
profound secret. Its members at the
end of their probationary period take
an oath that silences their tongues
forever.
The life on this earth is enjoyed to
it's utmost by them. At the end their
colleagues, attired in long white sur
gical gowns, gather about the bier on
which lie the earthly remains Of their
friend. The spirit they know has de-
parted, and the clay that Is left Is
given over entirely to science. Their
theories are augmented by this grew
some gift. When they have finished
the rites are said. At a crematory all
that remains is given over to the
flames. The doctor that was is re-
duced to handful of dust
DR.. Fred w. Wood, former SUI
preme encephalon, acknowledged
that the fraternity was for the pur-
pose of autopsy and cremation. I'VE
believe in three Degrees" said Dire
Wood. They are fraternity, which.
means the real fellowship on this
earth; autopsy after death, which
helps all mankind, and cremation,
which puts an end to the earthly
shell that remains after the spirit
has flown"
what is done at the autopsy"
was asked.
II cannot say" replied Dr. Wood.
! "Our oaths are solemn. What we do
/ to the body is all in the interest of
vances our knowledge"
what is the fraternity's beli<f in
regard to cremation?" was asked
eve believe that cremation is pro-
per. The body is but clay, and SOON
er or later becomes but a handful of
dust. When it is given over to the
| fire all is ended. The translation of
! 'Ustion' means fire."

Chicago. - A strange secret of
thirty-one years standing was re-
vealed when more than a score of
prominent Chicago physicians and
surgeons admitted that they were
members of the Ustion Fraternity, a
society having for it's object the dis
section of the bodies of its members
after death and cremation of the re-
mains.
This weird fraternity, to which
only members of the medical profess
sion are admitted, is Of national
scope. Its headquarters are in a
we'll furnished clubhouse at 1882
Lake Park avenue.
Chapters exist in New York, Phila-
delphia, Boston, Cleveland, Detroit
and other cities. Its membership is
taken from the ranks 81 the most
prominent practitioners In different
parts of the United States.
Each chapter is known as q verte-
bra. The Chicago chapter, being the
first organized, is called the prime
Vertebra." It's high officer is known
as the "encephalon, and it's next
highest officer is the "medulla." It's
other officers are named for other
parts of the human body.
The members of the fraternity
must undergo a preparation or APP
premiership Of four years before they
are admitted to full knowledge of its
weird rituals. During this period
each must study some physiological
or medical problem entirely original
in his own mind. If his faith and
perseverance in the ironclad rules OF
the society are deemed doubtful he
does not become parto Of the body. "
If the showing is complimentary the
fantastic ceremonials are admins
tered. The society is divided into
three degrees" through which its
members must pass. They are fra
ternity, autopsy and cremation.
DR.. p. M. Oliver, who lives in this
city, is the supreme encephalon OF
national head of the Ustionians.

KILOHANA LEAGUE
HOLDS MEETING
Reports for Two Years Show
the Finance in Good
Shape.

There viii be no diminishment in
the activities of the Kilohana Art
League, and the members plan to make
the organization a factor even more
important to the community than it
is at the present time.
The annual meeting for the year
1909, and the postponed annual meet
ing for the year 1908, were held yes
terday afternoon in the rooms of the
league on Beretania street, and Off
GERS were elected to serve through the
coming twelvemonth.
One of the most encouraging feat
ures of the meeting was the report Of
the treasurer for the year just passed.
The report shows that income and
donations for the year amounted to
more than $4,000. This sum not only
met all running expenses during the
year, but cut the league s Indebtedness
from $1547 to $605.
The leagues lease on its present
quarters runs well into 1911 and the
structure has been repaired so that it
IS in thoroughly safe and disable con-
dition.
In the election of officers, it was
necessary to choose three trustees to fill
vacancies caused by death or resigna-
ton. Richard Cooke was unanimously
elected to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of the late G. M. Cooke,
while the vacancies caused by the
designations of A. Mcintosh and Frank
Atherton Were filled by the election of
C. H. Atherton and Carl Du Roi.
Officers reelected are: D. II. Hitch
cock, president; Mrs. A. B. Tucker,
vice president; Mrs. Lillian G. Mar
shall, secretary; Mrs. W. G. Weldon,
treasurer; B. F. Dillingham;, managing
trustee. A. Gartley and E. A. Mott
Smith, trustees.

Nature gave to Michigan and near
by states more facilities that would
enable the lumberman to carry on his
work at a less expense than any other
district in the whole United States;
hence, her forests we're the first to
fall. The chief of these natural
agencies are the innumerable lakes

to think how much could have been
saved had a policy of conservative
numbering been pursued. What enor-

nation in the future?
In the case of the individual the
chances are he would not consent to
do so. Mankind is too prone to seize
upon every chance to pocket the dol
lar that is in sight and let the future
care for itself. With the corporation
it is somewhat different. Their policy
is usually broader, and they see the
advantages to be gained.
What shall be the policy then on
which the government must proceed
for the work of reforestation? True
the state owns much land, and this
can be utilized. But how much can
men of community be induced to
interest themselves in reforestation
when they know that stretches Of land
planted to trees must be idle for years,
and hence stagnation to business and
and depreciation in the value OF his
own property there?
The forestry work as conducted at
present is under one chief forester,
who, as previously stated, happens to
be at present Clifford Pinchot. He
has graded force of assistants, class

his letter, inviting the cooperation OF
the teachers, Forester Pinchot saws:
knowledge of this kind Is greatly
needed and will be of value from the
standpoint both of education and prac'
tical forestry. For educational pur
poses the results obtained for each
species, averaged and presented
graphically by means of colored
charts, will be available to all who
are interested in the subject, and par
ticularly to schools. They will form
virtual tree calendars and will be val

On request, the forest service will

and pamphlet containing full in

snd realized on that which he then
thought fit only to burn and destroy.
This being a matter of the past,
there remains but one thing to do.
That is, frame laws ard carry forward
policy which shall perpetuate what
remains of our forests.
The government in Washington has,
since 1876. maintained a forestry serv-
ice. At first it was merely an agency
in the agricultural department. From
that date until 1898 there were three
chiefs-Drs. Hough, Eggleston and
Ferncw. In 1898 the present United
States forester, Mr. Clifford Pinchot,
came into power. With his advent
the appropriation has been greatly in
creased-from $4,000 in 1876 to some
thing like a million at the last con-
gress.

recent speech, in Greenville, he said
AT the present time conservation
Is great fad in the land The idea
is good, but 1t should be accomplished
gradually, without harm or great ex-
pense to the state. Farmers should
be encouraged to keep wood lots and
grow trees on their farm and fence
lines. This could be inexpensively
done by the state supplying the young
trees. In the states are over $4,000
miles OF public highway. Double rows
OF trees could be set out along al.
these. With a wood lot on every farm
and trees growing along every high
way, Michigan would never suffer FROM
lack OF arboreal growth, and the great
fire danger to which solid forests are
subjected would not exist"
