Splitting Must be stopped.

indianapolis, Ind, June with be-
coming gravity Secretary Hurty, of
the State Board of Health, has pre-
pared circnlar letter, addressed to
railway managers, in which he propos-
es to boycott the splitter" on all rail
road trains, and in the line of his re-
commendation he will ask that every
man be elected from the train who
spits persistently after he has been
warned to the contrary.
The Secretary explains in his circular
that "sputum," by which he designates
common everyday spittle, is an excre-
ment full Of the germs of la grippe, ma
sal catarrh and other minor ills; that
splitting is a nasty and unnecessary hab-
it, in which ladies never indulge, and
that the railway authorities have a
right to prevent the befouling of their
cars by any such means He proposes
that the State Board of Health, which
he claims has the necessary authority,
pass rule against splitting, to be pro-
mulgated as other rules are, after
which it shall be posted in the cars and
enforced.
''Of course" says the Secretary,
when the rule is first published in
each county, and when posted in public
places, this board will be loudly abus-
ed as foolish, impracticable idiots, &C.,
but attention will thus be gained, and
the board will then publish reasons for
the action, These reasons will be ap-
proved by all decent and cleanly peo-
pie: Others will reject aud resent this
assction, and desire to be hitAy stibi"
! says the Secretary, but if they con-
I tinue to disregard tho warning then
they can be elected as nuisance, be-
ing publicly disagreeable and promot'
ers of disease. They may also be ar
rested on warrant and tried for violat'
ing the laws OF health"
The Secretary adds that the Health
Boards of Ohio and Illinois are ready
to cooperate in this undertaking.

READING, Pa, April 7.-Coroner Griese,
mer yesterday afternoon heard the testi-
mony of Frank Lash, at whose house Miss
Ida Ellen Moore, 80 years old, died on Fri
day night. 1t had been alleged that the
woman died under suspicious circum-
stances. Lash stated that she had been
indisposed when he went to work in the
morning, and when he returned at night
she was dead. The coroner does not think
1t necessary to hold post mortem exam
ination, and says there was no reason for
the suspicion of foul play. The young
woman was in n delicate condition.

The report on salmon investigations con-
Quoted by the United States fish commits
sion in the headwaters of the Columbia
river In Idaho has been compiled and pub
lished. The inquiry was begun July - OF
last year and both the large and small red
fish had reached the Idaho lakes then. The
important results Of the investigation are
stunned UP as follows: 1t is probable that
both the large and small forms of red fish
are anadromous, though the evidence that
the smaller comes up from the sea is not
complete. The young red fish remain In
the lakes and connecting waters for al
least one year after the eggs were spawned.
The Chinook salmon arrived en- or about
July "a, and were practically without mu-
tilations or sores. All the Chinook salmon
which come TO these waters die after
spawning. The young Chinook salmon ap-
pear to remain TO- one year after the eggs
