Although the ordinance creating a library
board was paswed by a vote of live mem
bers, Mr. Miller atone voting against It,
Mayor Kelly Is holding back his slgnaturo
to tho document until ho has an opinion
from tho city attorney.
In making his report on tho ordinance
Mr. Martin Inserted an amendment which
virtually compels tho mayor to appoint five
men on thu proposed board. In explanation
ot this Mr. Martin said that he had Heard
that the mayor favored tho naming or five
women, thus giving the gentler sex control
of the annual appropriation of $6,000 and
tho selection ot a site. He asserts that
business men should handle the affairs of
me tionru.
When anked yesterday when ho proposed
to sign the ordinance, Mayor Kelly said: "I
do not Intend to attach my slgnaturo to this
ordinance until I secure an opinion from
Mr. Lambert. As the nmciidmont was mado
after tho ordinance had been read the first
time It may bo that the document should
bo sent back to the council and read three
times again. I will notify tbo public as
soon aa I hnvo an opinion from the city
attorney."

connection a mcraoor ot iuo council

deavor to appoint five women the council
would refuse to concur, and thus delay
matters until acceptable appointments were
made.

liiK Life.
CHICAGO, Dec. 31. Prof. Jacques Loetl
ot tho University of Chicago today In a
paper read betoro a section of tho Ameri
can Society of Naturalists convention, made
the announcement that ho had discovered
tho physical processes that accompany life,
thnt electricity and not heat energy Is tho
basis of life. Ho docs not claim to liavo
solved tho problem of "what Is life," but
to have proved a theory which overthrows
a fundamental portion ot tho teachings ot
text books on physlcology.
"Tho energy of foodstuffs," Prof. I.oeb
said, as a conclusion, "and tho motions of
heat, aro not, after all, duo to thn pro
duction of heat, but to tho chemical energy
In oloctrlcal'y charged molecules," aud
again he put It this way: "A part ot the
chemical energy of foodstuff Is transformed
Into electrical energy, which In turn, gives
energy to tho muscles aud organs ot tho
body."
Dr. Loeb described his experiments with
a Jelly-tlsh nml explained that when ho
placed tho fish in a solution of electrically
charged, such aa salt, It responded, while,
when ho subjected It to a solution that was
a non-conductor, It did not respond. Pro
ceeding from turthcr experiments ho found:
First, that tho muscles contract ryth
inctlcnlly In solutions which had charges In
them; and, second, that tho contraction ot
tho muscles depended on tho number ot
churges on tho different solutions.
Tho announccmint that electricity and not
heat Is tho life energy Is the climax of Prof.
lJcb's fnmous experiments, which have ex
tended over ten years.
Another paper which attracted special nt
tentlon wns that read before tho meeting
of tho bacteriological society by Prof. F.
G. Novy of tho University of Michigan, who
made public for tho first time tho result
of his struggle to find a perfect gerralcldo.
His results, as reported, wore beyond ex
pectation, for ho has, It Is claimed, dis
covered an organic peroxldlo which Is abso
lutely dbstructlvo ot organic life, nnd which
can bo taken Into the system by human
beings with perfect Impunity.
A number of experiments wcro described
by Prof. Novy to demonstrate tho power of
his germicide, which he calls "benzol."
Gorms to the, multttudo of 1,000,000,000 in
.tnllva wero Immediately killed, Tho throat
of a dysthcrltlc dog wan sprayed with It
