According to Cliinost! news brought to AunUaHn l>y Hi'" steamer Chiiighu, the authorities at llon<;koiig are much concerned at the practice of dumping dead bodies ill the streets and precincts oi the city. Koine hundred bodies were dumped last year. It is supposed they were mostly the bodies of people whose 1-eia.Uvcs were too poor to Imry them. All attemtps to stop the practice having (ailed, a suggestion is now made that the bodies be cremated. This would be nil effectual cheek, lint the authorities are afraid lo adopt, the suggestion for fear of offending the Chinese beliefs.
It is seldom that anyone makes provision in liis will for a complete anatomical examination, not merely for tlie purpose of determining whether life has ended, but also with the object of benefiting science. Such a case, however, has occurred in Adelaide. The late John Klliott, whose body was cremated, made the following stipulation in his will: "1 direct that in the interests of science nil anatomical examination be made of iny body as soon as possiblu alter my du'eease by Edward Angrts Johnson, of Adelaide, surgeon. I direct that my hody be cremated at the West Terrace crematorium, Adelaide."
