MILKMAN BLACKHAM's ARREST
Accused OF Causing the Typhoid
Fever Epidemic at Stamford.


Fever Epidemic at Stamford.
Stamford, Conn, June 5.-The typhoid
fever scare which attracted the attention
of the public month or more since,
has taken on = sensational phase in the
arrest OF Henry j. Black ham, the much
berated milkman. A great deal of feel
ing has been expressed against Black
ham since the local and state boards Of
health announced that they had traced
the origin of the epidemic back to his
dairy, where his milk cans had been
washed in water drawn from an infected
well. The pulpit, too, took the matter
up, and one minister suggested that
Blackham should be tarred and feath-
cred and then ridden out of town on q
rail. There was talk Of criminal pro-
ceedings, but no move was made until
last evening when warrant was served
on Blackham charging him with man
slaughter in CAUSING the death of one
John +. Kink, . victim OF the fever
epidemic. During the epidemic there
were four hundred cases of fever and
twenty one persons died from it.

SATOLLI'S PLAIN wORDS
Tells Foreign Residents That They
Should Learn Our Tongue.

New York, June ga morning paps,
to-day says; A number of Catholics in
Connecticut appealed to the bishop Of
Hartford to send them priest Of their
own nationality. He declined on the
ground that the assistant priest in the
parish was already Of their race, that
the rector and also the teachers in the
schools spoke their language. They sp
pealed to the papal delegate. He replied
in the same fashion, and said among
other things that they could not expect
more to be done for them in a country
which did not use their language; and
that as they voluntarily entered the
United States with the intention of be-
coming citizens, it was for the best in
terest of all to learn the national Ian
guage as soon as possible and conform to
the national customs; keeping up theil
native tongue out Of reverence Of theiI
native land, but not out of contempt for
their adopted country, nor with any de-
sire to annoy their spiritual and civil
superiors.
