Several hundred acres of land were
purchased in Sonoma county, six miles
northeast of Santa Rosa, as q location
for the community, and 800 Altrurians
moved at once to the colony. The tract
contained several hundred acres OF rich
garden land and natural reservoir,
which afforded sufficient water power fer
all municipal and manufacturing pur-
poses. A lumber tract, ten miles south
west of Santa Rosa, was also purchased.
1t was heavily timbered and had a large
saw mill with capacity of 10, 600 feet a
day.
For year to the outside world all ap-
peared to run smoothly. ! hen humors
began to leach Berkeley that the colony
was not a success. j. @. Aiken, one of
the staunchest supporters of the enter
prise at Its birth, said that from the very
outset the colony had run into debt 1t
vas soon fond that the productive GA
pacity of the colony WAS not sufficient to
support its mem bers, and the longer the
colony continued the deeper it got into
debt. Then some of the colonists did
not pay their dues, although these dues
were depended upon to carry the colony
through the early and non productive
stages Of its existence. This caused
trouble, for Altrurists are supposed to be
equals IN every way. and there are sup
posed to he no special privileges OF i'm

CASE OF MISS TARBOx
Use of AseptoIin Causing Steady Improve
ment in Health.
(Blddeford Journal.)

The many scores of friends of Lizzie
Tarbox, and the hundreds of others who
have become interested in her through
the Journals story last week of the asep-
totin treatment in her case, will be
pleased to learn that she is steadily i'm
proving and that the hope entertained
of her ultimate recovery is becoming a
strong probability. Weighing every
thing, it may be said that the chances
are now little more than equal in her
favor.
When it is considered that three
weeks ago she was in the last and hope-
less stage Of consumption, and propped
up with pillows after most profuse
hemorrhage, it appears miracle Of meai-
cal science.
At the hands of two Biddeford doctors
who are attending her she is given the
hypodermic injection of aseptolin daily,
the quantity being now considerably in
creased, and the inhalation Of lodoform
spray and vapor of oarbolic acid and glyc-
crime Is used steadily. There have been
no Indications of accompanying i'll effects
of any nature, and both her particular
and her general condition have improved
steadily and without sign of relapse.
Her temperature now averages half a
degree lower than last week, ranging
from SO in the morning to 1905 and 1Ol
in the afternoon. Her pulse is about the
same as last week. Her cough has prac-
uioaily ceased; that is, perhaps she
coughs five or six times day. The mat
ter expeotorated Is very greatly improved
in appearance.
AS those familiar with this and other
lung diseases know, it is possible to
learn clearly the approximate condition
of the lungs by listening at the walls of
the chest, either with or without APP
paFatus devised for the purpose. Such
listening two weeks ago revealed marked
rales, -the hoarse, rafting, cracking
whirr made by the air breathed into and
out from diseased lung tissue. This
has regularly diminished and on Tues
day morning was not much more than
barely noticeable.
With each succeeding days improve
ment and lessened cough the danger of
further hemorrhage is steadily decreasing
and the broken down sections of lung
tissue are soaring over and healing up.
Miss Tarbox is now about the house
like anybody; eats like anybody and
sleeps like nybody. The gain in her
appearance even in the past week is
noticeable. 1t may now fairly be said
that the chances for recovery slightly out
weigh the chances against it,-that the
scale has turned in her favor, which
could not have been said week ago.
And every additional day gain increases
those chances in increasing ratio.
Five other patients are being treated
in this city with aseptolin, two of them
being from New Hampshire, drawn here
by the story of Miss Tarbox's case No
one of them, however, is anything like
SO seriously i'll as she was, yet one fell
away four pounds the week previous.
No one of these case have been long
enough under treatment to say anything
more of them than that reduction Of
temperature has followed it, and that no
Ill effects have been experienced.
The aseptolin treatment was begun
today upon Miss Kate Dow Of Goodwin's
Mills.

it was distributed.

great many cases the outside walls of
houses fell away and left the whole in
side exposed. There were the stair
ways, the empty rooms-a section right
down through the house. And herein
is one of the queereSt puzzles of the
wonderful affair. Hundreds and hun
dreds of such rooms We're exposed in
that way. When the owners recovered
from their fright and emerged from
their cellars. they found these rooms
stripped bare. Now where are the for
mer contents? Chairs, bedsteads, and
a countless lot of bed linen have gone.
There isn't a vestige left of any of the
stuff. No report has come back of any
of it being found. People out there
have the notion that it was actually
destroyed by the immeasurable energy
of the tremendous force that broke
loose.
This is certainly a curious incident
and trivial in itself. it is really very
significant. No one has been able to
