Kaysville, July 31-State Engineer
Willard Young was in Kaysville to-
day and in company with Councilman
Swan he made a thorough inspection
of the reservoir situated half mile
east of town. If there are any who
have feared that the reservoir dam
was not constructed properly they can
now rest in peace, for Mr.. Young said,
after making a thorough examination
that it is one of the best and most
secure dams in the state. He said
further that five or six feet of earth
could be added without the least dan
ger, and thus the present capacity OF
100000 gallons could be doubled.
The city council has already levied
an assessment to make Improvements
on the reservoir that will very ma
terially increase its value to the prop
erty owners OF the eastern portion of
the CITY.
The reservoir as it now stands has
cost about $4,000 1t was built last
year and has proven to be an entire
success.
Mr.. Young also inspected Adams
reservoir above Layton and decided
that it was unsafe with the amount of
water it sometimes contains.
William Bowler, the unfortunate
young man who was killed in the 'eX-
plosion in Ogden canyon yesterday,
was well known in KaysviIle and Lay
ton, where he lived for many years.
His wife is a daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Jeremiah Wiggill of this place.
1t is expected that funeral services
will be held at Layton.

TEXAS CONSTITUTION.
Three Important Amendments to Be
Voted On.

Dallas, Tex, July 31.-Three amend
ments to the state constitution will be
voted on next Thursday through Tex
as. No election since the days of re-
construction has involved so much for
the welfare of the commonwealth as
is dependent on the fate of these three
constitutional amendments. The three
amendments 10 be voted on are:
First-To provide for the irrigation
of arid or seTni-arid lands.
Second-To permit certain counties to
issue bonds to aid in the construction
of railroads.
Third-To validate bonds issued by
certain counties, to build courthouses,
jails and bridges and TO make other
public improvements and to validate
bonds which were bought by the state
with money from the permanent public
school fund, and which bonds are void
because of the technical infringement
or violation of existing constitutional
provisions.

YELLOW FEVER GERM.
Important Discoveries Reported From
South America.

Washington, July 31.-Surgeon Gen
er-al Wyrnan of the Marine hospital SER
vice, has had translated the account
written by DR.. Sanarellf of AIontevideo,
of his discovery of what he claims TO
be the yellow fever germ, and which he
calls the icteroid bacillus. He says the
baccilli were discoverd and in the sec
ond case examined. The doctor dweils
upon the difficulty of making sure OF
results because of the enormous mi
cq-obes found in yellow fever patients.
The germ which he holds TO be re-
sponsible for yellow fever, Dr. Sanarelil
saws, is found in the blood or tissues,
and not in the gastro-inteStinal caVi-
ties. He notes the fact, however, that
in yellow fever, as in typhoid, the d.
pestive tract is the seat of the abund-
ant baccilH coli, but he does not asso-
ciate these with the real yellow fever
microbes. He concludes, therefore. that
the virus of yellow fever does not re
side in the intestinal tube, and that
its toxine, instead of being absorbed by
the intestinal walls is elaborated in the
interior of the organs and in the blood

PLANTERS ADVANCE WAGES
Effect of the High Tariff Rates on
Sugar.

New Orleans, July 31.-Mr Leon
Godchau, the owner of seven sugar
plantations in Louisiana, and the larg-
est producer in the United States, has
telegraphed to the manager of his sew
eral places to advance the wages OF
all of the field labor 1615 per cent, the
advance to commence Aug. 1, in conse-
quence, he says, of the passage of the
Dingley tariff bill.
In sugar circles the opinion is gen
eral that this advance will be conceded
by all the planters to labor employed
in sugar culture or manufacture. The
skilled laborers employed in the sugar
houses or refineries are paid according
to the price the sugar commands and
will get an increase in wages of from
20 to 30 per cent as compared with last
year.

Der of visitors to the park this year,
and suggesting that company OF in
fantry be added to the military force
assigned to the duty of guarding the
reservation and preserving its natu-
raj beauty. There are now two troops
of cavalry at Fort Yellowstone, and
Colonel Young considers the number
insufficient to properly patrol the vast

limits of the reservation

temporarily in charge of the war de-
partment, will probably submit Colonel
Young's suggestion TO Secretary Alser
