A Typhoid Victim Handled Food.

DR.. W. G.. Weaver, of Wilkes-Barre,
surgeon of the Ninth regiment, has com
pleted his investigation as to the cause
of the outbreak of typhoid fever among
the members of Company F, three of
whom have already died from the dis
ease and twenty others are sick from
the same cause. The first impression
was that the victims contracted the dis
ease by drinking bad water at Gettys-
burg.
DR.. Weaver finds, however, that Pri-
vate Seitz had typhoid fever when he
went with his company to Gettysburg.
He did not do duty at Gettysburg, but
was assigned to light labor in the mess
tent Here he handled all the food and
the physicians think that in this way
the germs of the disease were transmit
ted to the other members of the COM
pany.

Michael Polan, a miner of Alden,
committed suicide there by blowing out
his brains. Work at the Alden collieries
has been slack for the last month or so,
and Polan was very respondent. On
Monday morning he went to the slope
as usual, only to be told that on account
of scarcity of cars there would be no
work that day.
He returned to his boarding place and
told the boarding mistress that there
was so little work that he could never
make money enough to send for his

dead. He had shot himself through
the head.
