MR. LASPER'S OPPORTUNITY.

In his letter finally Withdrawing his name
from the consideration of the Board Of Educa
ton President Gilman did not explicitly say
that he would have accepted the Sup"rntend-
cncy of Schools II he had been elected at the
earliest opportunity last week; but he does dis
tnctly convey that impression. 1t does not
seem unjust therefore, to hold Il majority Of
the Commissioners responsible for great loss
inflicted upon this city. Mayor Strong could
not foresce the precise misfortune which has
occurred. but he doubtless now deeply regrets
his failure to realize that serious evils might
follow his neglect to remodel the Board Of Edu-
cation. TO that extent he Is to blame for the
loss OF DR.. Gilman. whose appointment he has
frankly favored. The past cannot be undonc,
but the future can be protected, and it may be
assumed that the Mayor will be- guided by this
experience as the terms Of present members of
the Board expire.
Mayor Strong Is quoted as saying: IL was n
GILMAN man yesterday. but today | am IA
Jasper man" BY this he means that the Super
intendent just reelected for six years will have
his official and personal support in every honest
effort to prove that his fitness for the place has
been underestimated and to qualify himself
more fully for the performance of his work.
That Is a sound and becoming position for the
Mayor to assume and It ought be adopted by
those members Of the Board of Education who
have opposed Mr.. Jasper's election. and by
everybody interested In the schools. 1t Is con
ceded that the Superintendent has done some
things well under bad system, and we should
rejoice to see him rising to the opportunities
which the new law affords II Is unworthy Of

BY the later reports from st. Louis it appears
that the early estimates Of loss of life were
somewhat exaggerated This seems particular
ly to have been the case in East 81. Louis. The
loss Of both life and property there was much
greater in proportion to population than III the
larger city. but actually II was considerably
smaller The total as now estimated is sum
ciently painful for it is probable that fully 400
people perishcd in the two cities. From the
other towns in the path Of the tornado no accu
rate information is yet available SO far as ic-
lief for the needy and homeless is concerned
the people of ST. Louis have determined TO shoui
der the burden themselves. although numerous
generous offers Of assistance have been made.

TRACING TYPHOID FEVER.

Interesting results have at
tended the Investigation OF a ty-
phoid fever epidemic at Stan
ford, Conn, where there were 100
cases. 1t has been shown that
the germs Of the disease were
distributed with the milk sold by
one milk dealer. AT the begin
ming Of the investigation it was
ascertained that all the cases
were in houses on this dealers
milk route. He procured from
several farmers the milk which
he sold, but. as these farmers
sold milk to other persons who
had not been attacked by ty-
phoid, it was inferred that the
milk had become infected after it
passed into his possession. Bac~
THEOLOGICAL analysis has shown
on his premises, with which it
was his custom to wash his milk
cans, was very seriously polluted,
and that the water of several
other wells il. the neighborhood
of his house were in a dangerous
condition. A typhoid fever cpl
demic at Monclalr, n. j., a year
ago, was traced to a milk dealer,
as were also a similar epidemic
at Waterberg, Conn, three or
four years since and Il at
Springfield, Mass, more re-
Gently; and in this connection
the statement is made that ia
Great Britain, during the last
few years, the infection Of milk
supply has been the cause Of 25
local epidenics of this disease,
involving 5000 cases, and nearly
400 Deaths"
The fact is about being estab-
lished that, next to drinking
water, milk is the fruitful source
of typhoid fever, which is an
other argument for guarding it
with the most scrupuious care.
The theory of taking it into the
system through the air we
breathe has been exploded, and
that the fact has been established
that it practically comes with the
liquids we drink.

Throughout the Christian
world tomorrow will be a day Of
rejoicing. With the passing
years and the growth of the
Christian religion the observance
of Easter becomes more genera
and more impressive.
Thousands Of churches will to-
morrow be glorious with EN-
blems of the Resurrection. After
the sombre reflection Of Lent
comes a burst of triumphal joy.
While nature is thrilling with
new life the assurance of life
eternal is brought to the hearts
Of millions as they contemplate
the risen Christ.
The word Easter is from the
German ''ostem," or the old
Saxon ''oster" which means ris-
ing. The time of celebrating
this festival was a subject which
provoked heated discussions in
the early Christian church The
question was fully considered
and finally settled at the Council
of Nice, 235 A. D., by adopting
the rule that Easter shall be the
first Sunday after the first full
moon after the 21st of March.
Usually it is the Sunday after
the first full moon after the sun
crosses the line.
The influence of this festival
pervades every land, for the
name of Christ has been heard in
all the earth and his followers
are among all nations, Easter
refreshes faith, consoles sorrow
and brings humanity neare to
the ideals of conduct which We're
set forth in the life of Christ on
earth. The most precious Of all
words are Il am the resurrection
and the life," and the fullness of
their meaning is never quite so
we'll understood as at Easter. At
that time
There is a sense Of blossoms yet unborn
In the sweet airs of morn:
One almost looks to see the very street
Grow purple at his feet.
At times a fragrant breeze comes float
ing by,
And brings, you know not why,
A feeling a 5 when eager crowds await
Before a palace gate,
some wondrous pageant; and scarce
would start,
If from a beech's heart
A blue-eyed Dryad, stepping forth
should say:
'Behold me. l am May.r
