showed that RosenthaYs income was
about $4,000 year. and that his debts
amounted 10 about 10000. He denied hav-

that the articles that he had written

reflected the Indignation of the public

Recruiting tor Cuba in Omaha.

Omaha. March 1i,-An agency is to be To-
Gated in the city for the purpose of enlist
ing recruits for the insurgent army of
Cuba. A man with that object in view ar
rived in the city several days ago. and is
now ready to enlist everybody whose over
towering sympathy for the struggling
patriots is of sufficient strength to urge
him to fight. He will be given all the fight
ing utensils he wants. and all that is re-
quired of him is TO use them upon the Span
ish soldiers. This man has already OBJ
tanned a number of enlistments The re-
cruits however. consist largely of hangers
about the saloons. The scheme is looked
upon with favor by the local police. and
they are ready to give every encourage
rnent in their power.

A WRONG IMPRESSION.
Reports of a Scarlet Fever Epi-
demic Raging in Seattle:
DENIED BY THE HEALTH OFFICER
Public Health Reports Contain q
Flaring story Which Is Untrue
An Error Corrected.

The weekly report Of the United States
supervising surgeon general of the marine
hospital service, under date Of February
y contains the astonishing information
mat Seattle is still trolb BILE with a severe
epidemic of scarlet fever
Health Officer Palmer is racking his
brain TO tnd OUT who could have been the
author of the article. Il IS not signed.
ana there is not thing 10 show
the authority upon which the report was
punished. Considering the fact that tho
surgeon general receives reports every
week from the health Office Ii is strange
that such misleading. not TO say false.
report should have been spread broadcast
throughout the United States. DR.. J. B.
Eagleson, the United States marine hos
p!tal physician of this city says that he
knows nothing ahou, the matter.
The article appears as follows:
The following report of scarlet fever
IN Seattle was received under date Of Feb
ruary Ia 1896:
- Seattle is still troubled with a severe
epidemic Of scarlet fever. The disease is
SO comparatively mild in this climate that
1t is not feared. ana often a physician is
not called in 10 see these cases. Children
are allowed to go to school and play in
the streets while suffering with the dis
ease. The health officer has had serious
trouble with the disease. 81 Feral Of the
public schools were closed and several per-
sons brought before the courts for nom
compliance with the quarantine laws Of
the city"
Following is the letter Health officer
Palmer sent 10 the surgeon general asking
for a correction:

ing paragraph published in Public Health

the number of cases Of scarlet fever and
other contagious diseases reported, I am
at a loss TO understand how such a para
graph should have been published. Dur

there were pa cases and seven dea his from
scarlet fever reported; during January,
1886. there were two cases and no dea his .
during February, 1896. twelve cases and
one death.
In View of these statistics | fal TO see
how, under date line of February l.,

An Apreal TO Mr.. Wagner.

Editor T ines: In this mornings
Times see where an out of town fan kicks
veiemently against The exchange of Abbey
and McAuley. i would adyise A. o. T.
to keep his clothes On. No use giving
any advice TO the r-SChmelZ-rub-it-
iD-On-t the Washington-people company.
1t does no good ard only incites them 10
more iDdignities on us poor rooters and fans.
The Wagner SchmclZ combination is
aware that the department employees want
some place to restand emf themselves after
working hours and tina they naturally go to
see q game of bail. They cannot go any
place else. Therefore when they find
they hav e a good, first-class player the high
est cash price buys him. Why not? Can
not they make more money on a cheap
team than on a high priced one? The poor
deluded cranks and fans from every State
in the Union assembled here in Washington
80 to see they game anyhow.
If i'll any other of the league cities the
ball magnates would have made all their
seats 80 cents, except a measley few
benches in the southeast corner of the
grounds, where nothing can be heard
nor anything seen without the use of a
telescope, and if an owner would sell
first-class niapager-captan for the few
dollars gain in the deal and place back
a manager that for season after season
brought up at the extreme tall emu OF the
race for the pennant. there would not
be n corporal's guard visit the grounds
to see game.
1t is generally thought thattbe manager
of q baseball team is the head and the
life Of it. If that be so, why place, or
rather, keep, manager who does not
seem to be the head and who cannot put
life into the players, when he has that
quality not himself?
Has not Mr.. Wagner seen by this time
how the club has prospered since the re-
lease of good old reliable scrappy Joyce?
They are shooting the chute, gliding the
gutter, going down the toboggan and max
ing playthings for the rest OF the league.
Good Mr.. Wagner, please, Mr.. Wagner.
do, Mr. Wagner, give us manager who
can manage and keep good players and be
kind enough for once to cater to the patrons
OF baseball in fact and not on paper, as
has been done through interviews in the
Washington papers.
And If the expense is too high to pay such
. manager and such players, would sug-
gest that several hundred augur holes be
bored through the fences and season tickets
for fifteen cents be sold to those wishing
to use them from the outside.
