Seattle, Jan. 20.-A murder mys-
terry. similar to the one revealed in
the fall of 1907 when the body of a
woman was found in trunk on the
beach near Alki Point, was discovered
yesterday when beach combers walk
ing along the shore beneath Hagno-
liza Bluff at the north entrance to the
Seattle harbor found trunk contain
ing the dismembered remains of
young woman.
The coroner's physician states that
the remains are those of a young
woman between IS and 20 years of
years, but the remains found in the
trunk showed that the body had been
hacked in two at the waist before be-
ing placed in the small receptacle
No marks of Identification were
found on the trunk nor on the remn-
ants of clothing within.
The trunk had been buried high up
on the bluff and had been carried
down to the beach in a recent land
slide. When found the trunk was
securely locked and tied with a rope.
The men who found it pried it open.
and upon discovering its grewsome
contents notified the police who went
to the scene in a revenue launch.
Woman Was Murdered.
The police believe that the woman
was murdered and the body placed in
the trunk, a cheap affair. and taken to
the place of burial in rowboat, as
a steep overhanging bluff would pre-
vent it from the land side. The crime
dates back more than two years judg-
ing from the appearance of the body.
When the trunk was opened a towel
lay upon the bones and remnants of
clothing The body had been clad in
a slight suit of underwear and a cheap
calico wrapper. There was no mark
of Identification on the towel or cloth
ing.
The police and coroner say they
have not a clue to work on, and are
not hopeful of solving the mystery.
The woman was white, Of slight
build, a little over five feet tall and
had brown hair. The teeth were
beautiful. without blemish, except
that a front tooth in the upper Jaw
was missing There was nothing in
the remains of the body that spoke
o. violence. except the severing OF the
body at the waist
Nobody on the list of missing can
be connected with the woman in the
trunk
The body had not been dissected.
and there had been no disarticulation
except that which was done in cutting
it into sections to get it into the
trunk The head and torso were
placed on top of the legs and thighs.

THE SCHOOLS OF JAPAN.

They do some things better in Ja- pan. The medical corps of the Japan ese army accomplished wonders in the way Of keeping the health of the sol diers up to par during the war with Russia. Now it appears from the re- port just issued by the Japanese de- partment of education that the public school system is remarkably well or ganiZed, affording suggestions that might be utilized to advantage in some of our own cities. TokiO and Yokohama are. in one respect, at least, far ahead our own New York and Chicago and Philadelphia. Every child in those and in all other Japanese cities has seat in school. Furthermore, there is no overcrowd- ing Each pupil must have so many cubic feet of air The size. number and height from floor of windows. the height of desks and seats. and even the color of the furniture are regu- lated by law. Stated and frequent times for thorough cleaning of the school buildings are also prescribed. Special physicians are employed for regular inspection of each school, pay ing particular attention to the eye sight and general physical condition of the pupils and the sanitary condi- ton of the premises.
 Japan has no laws prescribing the age which pupils must attain before being permitted to leave school. In stead, there is law that child must complete an elementary course corresponding to the first six grades in American schools. Thus the bright CT and more industrious the pupil the sooner he may leave school if his par ents desire it. There is no holding back the smart scholars for the sake of the dull and indolent Neither is there any injurious forcing of imma- ture intellects. It is said that the bad boy" is practically unknown in Japan. that the playing of hockey" is never indulged in by the youth of the flow cry kingdom. so eager are they to ob- tain an education. In this respect America can hardly hope to duplicate her ancient neighbor. The irrepressible bad boy we shall have always with us He is indigenous. and we like him better, on the whole. than his unnat urally good brother. But in. one or two respects We might well take a leaf from Japans book of education.- Pittsburg GaZette-Times.

NEW DIRECTORATE
 OF BOARD OF TRADE
Twelve of the Fifteen Directors Were Named for Another Year of
 Service.

There was creditable gathering of the members of the board of trade yesterday afternoon for the election of a new board of directors. There was. the directors. accounted for on the theory that they were all hoping that they would not be reelected. for. though they have an earnest interest in the welfare of the valley, the work of attending to the duties of a director as it should be done calls for consid- erable time and effort. The members. however. believe that it is a good idea to keep a good officer when they get him, so proceeded to re-elect twelve of the fifteen members who served last year
 The meeting was opened by Q few words from the president. Dr. J. w. Foss, who called for speeches from the members. saying that he preferred to hear from some one besides the direct ors. Three speeches were made in re- sponse. and many good suggestions of fered. C. H. Davidson suggested that the board would add materially to it's cooperation and team work if the members were to get together at least twice year in dinner and talk things over The other speakers were C. Fl. Pratt and Lysander Cassidy One of the suggestions made during the speechmaking was that the board should have a wider scope of member ship. It is not meant by that that il is a class institution; that lines are drawn keeping out certain classes, but that the classes have failed to become in terested What is wanted is something that will make these people appreci- ate that the board means as much to them as to anybody and that their presence and membership is just as much desired. pr. FOss again suggest ed the desrability of the board keep ing a representative in Los Angeles.
 The nominating committee that had been previously appointed then report ed twenty names of desirable candi- dates for the office of director and bal lots were distributed bearing these names. The result of the ballot was the election of the following named: Dr. A. I. Chandler. D. B. Heard. B. A. Fowler. pr. J. w. Foss. pr. Ancil Mar tin. Elliot Evans. R. B. Burmister. $. J. Nicholson, J. H. McClintock. w. E. Twitchell. pr. J. C. Norton. R. s. Goodrich, :. H. Mitchell. General A. ]. Sampson, II. B. Wilkinson.
 The three new members chosen are Dr. Ancil Martin, w. B. Twitchell and :. II. Mitchell.
 The board will probably meet next Tuesday at I o'clock for organization.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED


 by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the lear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitution al remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucou 5 lining of the Eustachian Tube When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf ness is the result, and unless the in flammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal con- dition, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caus- ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflame dcondition of the mu- cous surfaces.
