The lecture of Prof. S.

The lecturer | treated bie interesting subject in a masterly manner, mabing it entertaining as well as in- structive. | Chief Engineer Cronin, of the District Fire | Department, states that he did not give Ser- ant Clemens, of the police force, any order= at the fire on 7th street near I, but did request the sergeant to keep the crowd back from in- terfering with the firemen, and it was the ser- geant’s failure to comply with that reasonable equest of which complaint was made to the | police commissioners by the chief engineer, which complaint they dismissed. er Dubois arrested a youn; mn who gave his name as Edward I.

The flesh seemed to have been cut from the bones, as no bones were | found. No portion of the face, head or | bands could be discivored, but ths fiesh of the feet was there. The boys soon spread the news, and it was not long before a crowd asembied. (fficer Hinckel learning the cause of the excitement repaired to the spot, and after collecting the fragments in a sack employed a colored man to remove them to the eentral guard-house, and he then notified the Foner. Various conjectures have been ex- ‘ssed as to how the remains came tobe there, @ few persons believing that a foul murder has been committed. Some of the colored people are firm in the belief that the “night doctors” are at work again, as several persons, they say, have recently been missed. The coroner said be thonght the remains were the debris from a ‘ting Tuom. Such disgusting sights have become frequent of late, and ri Coroner Patterson's surm’s+ is true, and it probably is, it is high time that all resp: ctabie medical prac. ‘titioners put the seal of condemnation on this loose manner of disposing of the remains of utilized cadavers. ‘This morning about 10 o’clock the remains of ‘@ white woman were discovered near the same ce, evidently left there last night. Among is lot isa large sizedark brown waterfall, which had ap) mtly not been longin use; two very small size white hands, the left one having been dissected. Considerable excite- | ment Was occasioned this morning by this last | » and a large crowd congregated. ‘Word was sent to the central guard heuse, and Lieutenant Skippon dispatched Officer Smoot, who bad the different parts collected and sent to the guard house.
