NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Relatives Of
hundreds of persons who die in Belle
vue and Harlem hospitals are unable
to save the bodies of their dead from
the dissecting table, according to evil
dence given today in an inquiry look
ing to abolition of the office of coroner.
DR.. Timothy Leblanc, coroner's
physician, testified that he had per-
formed thousands of autopsies, and
that when there is scarcity of bodies

century. Lody died within a few rods
of the spot where Anne Boleyn, Lady
Jane Grey and other English celebri-
ties were executed years ago.
All the retainers and employees in
the Towers clutter of old structures
soon heard of the execution, in fact
many of them were awakened by the
vcliey, and visitors who came to the
Tower that day were told of it in whis-
pers. Lody had died game, they said.
Throughout the night he had prayed
with British army chaplain, and to
the last he refused to tell for what
person in Germany he was acting.
Nor was it disclosed just what re-.
ports Lody sent to Germany. When
certain documents were discussed re
rortcrs were barred from the trial
room. But those who have read some
of the reports pay high tribute to
Lody's acuteness, of his observation,
and declare his data forms one of the
most remarkable exhibits ever brought
to the attention of Scotland Yard.
Insisted He Was Inglis,
An American Citizen
Lody was 35 years old, but looked
Younger. A native of Berlin, he had
travelled widely. He spoke English
with almost an American accent. This
and the fact that he looked like an
American doubtless was the reason he
was sent as a spy. He had spent much
time before, but on the last occasion
he came in August, shortly after hos
tilities began.
Clever as he was, the war office
soon got wind of his actions, and he
was watched. 1t was during this
shadowing that he insisted tnat he was
Charles A. Inglis, an American. In
this role he even complained to the
nolice that he was being followed.
He was arrested in October. Eng
lish counsel defended him. The court
martial was short. and the prisoners
span of life after sentence even short
er. He was taken secretly to the
Tower and not until four days after
his execution was the news officially
made public.
No Englishman laments his death
but all the newspapers pay him the
tribute of dying bravely, like phil
osopher. He had accepted the risk
and he paid the penalty.

The great transformations In ths

OF the world are always a subject OF

q them In the light Of his own philos,
ophy Of living. Few men have come

Il do not remember when was con.
verted." Even these rare incidents
are usually found in families which
for generations have led nut only
Cody lives, but lives actively devoted
TO the advancement Of religious work
In this world
No such lack Of certainty concerns
the life Of Mr.. Sunday. A definite
Sunday night in the fall of 1887 stands
out wildly in his recollections over
oil the other nights of his life. This
Iovsnt has been the subject Of one OF
the greatest sermons the evangelist
ever delivers. 1t has been heard IN
more than 100 cities, twice that num-
Der Of newspapers have printed 1t,
and yet it thrills each time with a
sense OF newness and truth that
makes profound impression on all
who sit beneath its spell.
Mr.. Sundays mother was Meth

In the usages Of that church. Stu
dents of cause and effect may like to
ascribe the remarkable transformation
In life which took place at the age OF
twenty-four as based upon this ante
cedent. There is none who can deny
them the right to that opinion, al

WHAT EVERY MOTHER SHOULD
KNOW.
(COntinued.)


A mother should know why hel
baby cries. In the very young baby
as have said before, little crying Is
good exercise, but 1t must be known
as to what is healthy crying, such az
the crying for food or attention, which
never indicates real pain. This Is
baby's way of demanding notice.
If an ordinarily contented baby, pre-.
sumably comfortable, dry and well-fed
persists in crying, the mother should
investigate. Among small causes Of
discomfort may be mentioned an open
safety-pin, an overnight belly-band
folds in those instruments of torture
the muslin bands of skirts fastened
with safety pins, small arm twisted
under the body, sun shining into the
eyes, flies or mosquitoes and wet dia
pers. Make baby absolutely com
Portable in clothing and position, and
he will not cry long. If he does not
quiet down soon, or If he has parox
ysms of crying, have physician look
him over.
DR.. Roger bennett, in his excellent
Baby" thus analyses the baby's CRY
which needs attention:
There is the hoarse cry of the
child who has cried great deal, OF
the throaty cry of the child suffering
from some throat affection. There ID
the low,moaning cry of the very sick
child, which breaks your heart to hear
There is even the 'cephalic cry OF
meningitis and other brain conditions
and the wild night cry with which the
child with bone tuberculosis starts out
of his Sleep"
Thus you see that certain cries are
actual symptoms of disease, not to be
trifled with.
In this connection, one of the most
efficient organizations for reducing in
FAINT mortality has compiled the follow
ing suggestions to mothers on this
very important subject. 1t is reprint
ed here from Hints to Mothers" is
