The Guthrie daily leader. [volume] (Guthrie, Okla.) 1893-1996, 1898-01-18

In reference to typhoid fever, there
are three important lessons 10 be
learned. One is that it is a filth dis
ease; the next. that while the produc-
tion OF the disease probably requires
that the morbific agent shall be
brought into contact with the alimen-
tary mucous membrane. as I'm food and
drink it is possible for the salivary
fluids in the mouth and throat to alb
sorb the poison from the atmosphere
and thus become the medium OF its
transmission TO the stomach. There is
also third lesson of very considerable
value to us-namely. that various ar
ticles of food, and especially milk. wa
ter and other fluid floods, possess the
same property OF absorbing the fever
poison from the atmosphere. and thus
becoming the vehicle of fits introduc-
tion into the system. The absorption
OF the poisonous emanations by the
salivary secretions and by food stored
Il, pantries and kitchens, especially the
latter, furnishes the explanation of
many so-called sporadic cases of true
typhoid fever occurring in cities. In
large proportion Of cases It will be
discovered on examination that odor-
Gus emanations from kitchen drains
are easily perceptible to the senses in
the rooms where food is stored and
where It is being prepared for the
table.

Cobb County. Remarkable woman.

Mrs. Ollie Handy, OF Cobb coLnty, an
aunt Of Judge b. +. Cock, OF Coweta
county, is a remarkable woman in
many respects. She is the twenty
sixth child born to her parents. and al
though Judge Cocks junior by two
years. is his great aunt Her father
was twice married, which accounts for
her being younger than her nephew.
Mrs Handy had seven brothers who
were Baptist preachers aud six ueph-
ews engaged in the same calling. Her
descendants now number seventy sew
en- all of whom are robust in body and
mind. BY industry and economy she
has accumulated a considerable for
tune and her children will each re
ceive a comfortable dot when she dies.
Judge Cock paid her a visit nos long

PUZZLES THE uNlNIrlArED.
Terms Used Ia Designating the DInereni
tln.ata OF pnrIIIafs.

NfirHfH " ubtttaNAs
From The New York Telegram Pu-
gilistic titles continue to mystifiy those
who take an interest in boxing. Weight
is the question which causes all
the argument Formerly when match
was made the conditions were provid-
cd thst the contestants would give
or take two pounds. as that was not
considered am undue advantage for
either man. Nowadays when two box
ers arrange a match they stipulate that
each shan weigh certain number Of
pounds at a certain hour. and the man
who exceeds The weight agreed upon
usually forfeits q snug sum- Ere
quently the man who is at weight de-
ciiucs to so on with one who exceeds
the stipulated, and Shylock never hag-
gled more over a pound OF flesh than
two modern boxers trying to make a
match. At times, when boxer thinks
he has an easy proposition. he will
concede pounds without a murmur
but when his prospective opponent is
a dangerous man the scales are scru-
tnized for unauthorized ounces. Some
years ago the divisions between the
boxers were marked by the terms ban
tam, feather weight, lightweight. well
ter weight middle weight. and heavy
weight, Heavy weights were men at
l5S pounds or over; middle. 142 to l5S;
welter. 1873 to l42; light. 122 to 1873:
feather not exceeding, 1872; bantams.
lO5 to ll5. Those limits are now un-
recognized. Every boxer insists on
sparing at the particular weight at
which he can do his best work and the
managers scheme to secure weight con-
ditions calculated to embarrass an op-
ponent There are men who style
themselves champions at nearly every
weight from 105 to 1853 pounds. In the
heavy weight divi ION weight cuts no
hgure. as any man weighing 1853 pounds
or over is in that class Ftzsimmons
conceded dozen pounds to Corbett.
and the latter gave that much to Sui
livan. Caspar Icons claim TO the
lO5-pound championship OF America is
case in point. Leon has been twice
defeated by Barry. the Chicago boy,
who is undoubtedly the bantam cham
plOn OF America. However. "Parson"
Davies admits that Barry cannot box
much below los pounds, although at
one time he got down to lO2 pounds.
Therefore. as Leon can get into the
ring at lO5 pounds, and Barry can not.
the former has a technical claim to
the lO5-pound championship. At the
same time Barry says he will not con-
test the point relying on the more
general title Of bantam champion.

SHOWER OF STARS.
Rain OF Meteorolds Coming with the
Close of the Century.

NiOse OF inc century
Baltimore Sun: The astronomers
look for the next great meteorlc show
er on the morning of Nov. l5 1899
They calculate that the earth viii then
pass again through the center Of an
immense swarm OF meteoroids, as they
are called before combustion. These
great "Leonide Star Showers" as they
are called, occur at intervals Of every
thirty-three years and one day. The
great shower OF 1893 occurred on Nov
I12 that OF 1888 on Nov. 70; that Of
1866 on Nov. IA; and. consequently. a
repetition OF the next wonderful phe-
nomena is expected on the morning OF
| Nov. IS, 1899. In the meantime, how
ever as the aggregation OF meteoroids
Is OF immense length, one end Of It will
encounter the earth in 1898 and the
other In 1900. making. as Professor
Lewis Swift. the distinguished astron-
omer OF Rochester n. Y, says, con-
siderable showers In those years also.
Not only this, but Il Is stated on the
same authority that many forerunners
OF the great shower may be expected
to come within the earth's atmosphere
on Nov. IA, 1897, because many OF the
meteoroids are always considerably in
advance OF the main cluster Profess
sor Swift saws: The thickness OF the
meteoroidal stream Is 100000 miles,
and the duration OF the shower is equal
10 the time OF the diagonal passage of
the earth through Il, usually from
midnight to dawn" He adds: "As
