Its Importance in Connection With the
Threatened Epidemic Of Cholera.
TO the Editor Of The IlteliiOmesr
SIR;-The warnings which come from
Europe Of the Importance Of the water
supply in connection with cholera cpl
denies Is so positive and unmistakRble
that II should be taken as a rule for ac-
ton by all intelligeRtly administered
American communities. It Is not, Of
course, impossible that cholera may be
spread and even assume epidemic pro-
portions by other means, but the testl-
money Is unmistakable that the most
usual method OF its transmission in
wholesale degree 10 by the distribution
Of a water supply bearing the germs OF
the disease.
Hamburg affords tho latest demon
stration OF this principle, That city
drew its water supply from Q polluted
source and the deaths from cholera
reached SO.s per 1000 OF its population.
In India it is notorious that the chol-
era ia spread by the use Of water from
togl reservoirs by the natives; while
the English, who never use water with
out boiling or purifying It, are pEac-
tically exempt from the disease,
The same lesson has been repeated in
a variety Of FORMS hence the only pre-
caution Is, to boil or filter all the water
used for household purposes, especially
that used for drinking. Ewing Bros,
1915 Market street, Wheeling, were the
first 10 introduce Ia this locality the
plain, simple Natural Stone filter, Any
child can understand 1t. They have by
efforts Of their own gradually reduced
the price Of this simple and practical
Natural Stone filter from the price OF
$l1 rs ten years ago to the price OF to-
day, S. 90. Certainly any family can
now have q good Natural Stone filter.
The price has been brought down With
In the reach OF all, and Ewing Bros.
should have the credit for having done
SO. An original case Of cholera may
occur in this community. All should
take tho necessary precautions to pre-
vent the spread oil the disease, and the
good housewife will see that the dis.
ease will not enter her household II
such precautions will prevent II. Boil
all the water and tilterit, when cheap
filter is within the reach OF all. :"

HAwAIIANS TO DECIDE.
The Question Of Annexation May be
Settled by Popular Vote.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE course OF
the president in withdrawing the Ha-
waian treaty is still matter Of discussion
among senators. A Republican senator
who has taken a prominent part In most
of the discussions in the senate in recent
years that have touched foreign relations
said last night that he had received an in
timation that the president was desirious
OF modifying the treaty, and would ulu-
nately return it to the senate. One of the
contemplated notifications was probably
suggested by the protest of Queen Liliou-
kalani, made by Mr.. Paul Neumann, her
representative, which stated that ma
jority of Hawaiians were bitterly opposed
to annexation.
The senator thought 1t possible that the
president might so frame the treaty that
annexation would depend on the will of
the Hawaiians. Should the majority on
annexation prevail then protectorate
might be established.
The senator felt sure that a large mn
jority of the intelligent population Of the
island favored annexation outright, but
among Che lower classes much opposition
would be found Should these classes
dominate then protectorate would follow
and this in turn would surely result in an
neXation, because tho United States could
not undertake permanently to assume
responsibility for the acts of the islanders
without the power to control their acts.
Otherwise serious complications with other
powers would ensue

conference with Secretary Gresham yes
