Tbe Iatest rerror OF Science

Diphtheria from oysters is the latest
danger with which science soothes the
Imagination OF mankind. The theory is
that oysters fattened in unwhoIesome
waters became contaminated with dis
ease germs, which they transmit TO hu-
man consumers The idea was first sug-
gested by the fact that a number of Lon
don business men. living in different but
entirely healthful parts Of the town. were
stricken with diphtheria ia way which
physicians could not account for. It was
finaliy discovered that they all lunched

origin of the disease. kate Fields Wasf-

Miss Beeken's story was that Bauderst

One night he took her TO a picnic In

promise. He kept putting 1t of until in

here at home it is needless to mention

reading:
"The Times today, referring to the
fact that sixty delegates from the tir
plate working districts of Wales are going
to the United States in order to inquirt
into the prospects Of profitable employ
ment there and to the statement mad,
that American agents in London are buy
ing the latest improvements in tin plat
machines, as we'll as offering doubl,
wages to the tin plate workers, says:
Should the delegates report favor
ably upon the prospects for tin plat
workers in the United States, it is no
unlikely that there will be so large al
exodus to America as to lead to grea
portion of the trade hitherto monopolizec
by Wales being transferred to America
Hitherto the idea has been that it wa
impossible to manufacture tin plates il

panied the iron and steel institute dele

NOT OVERLY HAPPY.

The following is from the Tilford Re
former and it indicates that the path of
our young contemporary is not strewn
with roses:
This paper is not being run just ex-
actly as some people would like to see it,
or as would like to see it; but stop and
reason. We came here as every one
knows, about six months ago, and since
that time I have been general manager,
fnancier, editor in chief, assistant editor,
corresponding editor, county seat re-
porter, compositor, pressman, devil, etc.
I have managed and done the best that
could be done under the circumstances.
OF course there are some chronic kickers
who are always on hand, and I will take
this opportunity to tell them that if they
don't like this paper, for their sake, for
my sake, and for the sake of God Al
mighty, who rules over us all, to drop
out. do not pretend that this is Omaha
Bee or World Herald, but claim that if il
had half chance, it would do credit to
town and county. Of course what pat
ronage the paper is getting is thankfully
received, and am glad to note the fact
that there are yet few who know that
it pays to advertise.
There being enough silver coined tc
redeem the treasury notes, Secretary
Foster has accepted the privilege granted
by congress and called temporary hall

only 95,OOO,OOO, out of the total of ovel
$4OO,0OO,0OO that the government min
has coined has gone into circulation.
