Mrs. Hughes had the affection of the
two thousand physicians who gradual
ed from the college during the life OF
her husband and the deanship of her
son. She always took deep personal
interest in the welfare of the students,

Physicians and Surgeons grew from a
very small beginning to large size.
through successes and discourage
ments in turn. and Mrs. Hughes al.
ways had clear vision of medical
education in general and the proper
sphere OF this college in particular. In
the strenuous work of erecting and
conducting such an institution OF
learning, she was of invaluable assist.
ance to her husband.
She was accustomed to attend the
meetings of the American Medical as
ISOLATION with her husband, and mos
of the men famous III American medi

WEIGHT OF THE SOUL"
English Authority RidicuIes Alleged
Demonstration.

| There is a popular notion that the
weight of the living body is less than
| that of the dead one" says a writer
| in the London Lancet. I'm a recent
issue of the Pioneer Mail a CORE
spondent discusses this question in
! connection with the behavior of a
crocodile which he shot dead while
it was basking asleep on a quicksand
when shot the crocodile began to
sink and almost disappeared before it
could be reached. The correspondent
is clearly inclined TO accept the popu-
lar notion of an increase of weight
at death, but for the fact that recent
experiments undertaken by some
learned authorities in America have
proved that a dead body was tighter
than a living one From this they
(the authorities) deduced that the
soul had a definite weight in pounds
avoirdupois.'
1T is possible that some of our
readers are unfamiliar with the ex-
periments to which the correspondent
of the Pioneer Mail refers. They
were made and recorded "A few years
ago by DIR. Duncan Macdougall of
Haverhill, Mass. Patients were
weighed in the act of dying. The
scale used recorded any increase or
decrease beyond the fifth of an ounce
not a particularly delicate instru-
ment for estimating the weight of
that part of the living body which is
usually regarded as immaterial and
imponderable
"In the first of a series of six eX-
periments DR. Macdougall placed
man dying from pulmonary tubercu-
Iosis on the scales. The patient lost
weight at the rate of one-siXteenth
of an ounce per minute until the mo-
ment of death, when the beam end
dropped with an audible stroke. show
ing a sudden decrease of three-quar
tiers of an ounce in weight What
was the cause of the sudden decrease?
DR. Macdougall, after excluding the
loss due to escape or breath and fluid
contents of the body by evaporation
or other natural means, concluded
that the marked and sudden decrease
was due to escape of the soul sub
stance In this particular instance
the soul was evidently a very mate
rial one. weighing three quarters of
an ounce
The experimenter extended his OBJ
servations to dogs. but the results
gained were negative. At the mo-
ment of death the dogs body refused
to show any alteration in weight. We
are of opinion that the correspondent
of the Pioneer Mail in seeking to ex-
plain the disappearance of the shot
crocodile in a quicksand need not
take his learned authorities too Sc
riously DIR. Macdougalrs observations
are to be explained by a peculiar
bias on the part of his scales or on
the part of the friends who assisted
him. At least the scales used by
other Investigators have refused to
reveai any sudden diminution in the
weight of the body at death.

is of such a different nature from the
grants in other counties. being largely
covered by forest, that il is i'm a class
by itself. COconinO county returned
her grant lands at 40 cents per acre.
which the board deemed a fair and
equitable valuation. The returns from
other counties varied from s0.19S to
$0.25 per acre. These returns the board
did not regard as uniform and equit-
able for the purposes of territorial
taxation, or as compared with other
lands of the same class in the various
counties. After due consideration the
board decided that % cents per acre
would be a fair valuation to place on
all the grant lands except COconinO.
which was left at As cents as returned.
This makes an increased valuation in
two counties, over the aggregate re-
turns. amounting to sS2, 46457. The
facts are set forth in the following

POLICE ADMIT
THEY ARE BEATEN
Baifled as to lndenity Of Autoists
Who Killed Veteran
Britain.

After more than u week OF rigid in
vestigation the police officials admit
themselves utterly baffied as TO the
Identity of the occupants of the auto
mobile that struck and Killed William
Britain, an aged inmate of the Sol
diers Home while he was returning
from the Fair grounds last week.
Captain Of Detectives Mcmahon says
that he personally has enlisted the
aiG OF several public garage proprie
tors In his search, but without results.
1t Is now bis opinion, he says. that the
automobile was Il private family con
veyance, which Is probably kept in the
rear OF the residence of its owners.
Captain McMahon is still investigating,
but in more or less alf-hearted fash
ion. and with little or NO hope of sue
cess.
As n result. it is probable that the
death of "Comrade' Britain will go
down in the police annals as an UNI
solved mystery. 1t has been suggested
to the police that every automobile
owner in the city be asked to account
for the whereabounts Of his car on
the night that Mr.. Britain received
the injuries which resulted In his death
II is not probable that such a course
will be pursued.
