The Prayer of the Sick.

Another Wichita story becomes highly
seasonable in view of the charge by the
yellow journals that the typhoid Gonzales
cents are being starved to death in the
army hospitals. says the Kansas City
Journal Mr.. Richey, the wer-known WI
chita railroad man. hassbeen very sick at
the local hospital with typhoid fever His
doctor visited him the other day and found
him very depressed in spirits, and he said
very solemnly:
Doctor, have been praying an night {"
The doctor thought this little strange.
as Richey was not a religious man, but
he replied sympathetically:
You have been feeling pretty bad,
haven't your"
mo, it isn't exactly that"
"What is it then?"
We'll, I've been praying that the egg you
said could have to-day would be an os-

GOOD PLUMBING AND GOOD HEALTH

Without good plumbing there cannot be
good health in this or any other city.
Therefore public sentiment will uphold
the city authorities in Furnishing to the
fullest extent of the law plumbers who re-
fuse to comply strictly with the plumbing
ordinance. If the inspector should be neg
ligent in the performance of his duties
there would be a great deal of poor plumb
ing done, and the general health of the
city would suffer in consequence. There
are plumbers, however. who don't care
about the public health. They are inter-
ested only in getting contracts.
There is another thing of which families,
returning from summer outings, ought to
be careful at this season of the year, and
that is to have their houses well aired be-
fore occupying them. Houses which have
been closed for couple of months, or
even for month, are apt to be pretty
well filed with poisonous gases from
leaking sewer traps or from other
sources. By giving their houses a good
airing before occupying them families will
greatly lessen the chances of contracting
sickness.

THE SOUTH NOT A HOT BED OF
EENER.

One good thing that has come out of
the investigation of the charge that much
of the sickness in the home military camps
was due to the neglect of the medical de-
partment of the army, and that is that
the reckless assertion made by the yellow
journals of New York, to the effect that
the South is a hot-bed of fever, is shown
to be wholly false. When the assertion
was made we called attention to the fact
that there was no foundation for it; but it
is difficult TO correct a falsehood such as
that was.
For instance, it was asserted with per-
sistency that almost amounted to ma
liciousness by the yellow journals that
Chickamauga was a fever hole. What
does the medical commission, which has
just completed its report on that camp,
say in respect to its healthfulness? 1t
says that the camp site at Chickamauga
is a very healthy one. and that the ty-
phoid fever which prevailed there was
brought there from the state camps. From
Chickamauga the fever was spread 10
other camps in. the South. 1t was even
carried to Santiago.
The medical commission also says that
the fever at Chickamauga was not spread
by means of the water, as was popularity
supposed but by flies. During all the
summer there We're myriads of flies there.
and. according to the commissions view,
they deposited the fever germs on the
food and carried them into the tents of
the soldiers.
The fly theory, however, is not wholly
satisfactory, for the. reason that some of
the regiments almost wholly escaped sick
ness. But there were no regiments which
escaped the flies. The regiments which
suffered but little from sickness were the
ones which were the most careful to en-
force sanitary regulations. For that rea-
son they may have been less seriously af-
fiicted with flies, and the light affection
from flies may account for the light af-
Fiction from fever.
The point we wish to make however IS
that the South is no more subject to fever
than the North ESPECIALLY typhoid fever.
If typhoid fever had not been taken to
the camp at Chckamauga, and the
proper sanitary regulations had been OBJ
served, 1t is safe to say that the fever
would not have appeared there.

The onion as a basis for divorce pro-
ceedings has made its appearance In a
New York court. A Doctors wife per-
sisted in eating the eucculent and odorif-
erous vegetable, and in dressing various
dishes which she caused to be served on
the Doctors board with onions The hus-
band protested, 50 he says in his bill of
allegations, but his protest being I'M
avaiiing, he Instituted proceedings to Sc
cure legal release from spouse who had
so little regard for his sensibnities as to
be fond of onions. Should the anu-onion
plea be sustained by the court, it would
probably be well for young persons con-
templaing matrimony to save themselves
worry and expense In the future by having
an onion paragraph written into the mar
riage contract.

The Impudent Hnwaiians.
From the New York Evening Post qnd.).

The dispatches from Honolulu this MORN
ing showed how rapidly we are moving
on the old and beaten track. The native
Hawaiians we are told have greatly
damaged their case with the American
commissioners by presenting petitions ask
ing for the restora ton of the monarchy.
This action has so thoroughly convinced
the commissioners of the complete lack
of political sense and sagacity of the ma
tive Hawaians that 1t is believed they
will make no recommendation to give the
natives the right of suffrage" You see
the rascals are openly telling the Ameri-
can people, in whose power they are,
that they would like the restoration of
the old government under which they
have always lived until It was taken away
from them by the American people afore-
said, partly by force and partly by fraud
This growing impudence needs prompt re-
preston. and we are glad to see that the
commissioners are going to punish il as
1t deserves. What business have the likes
of them with the suffrage? The question
why they cannot have il when the South
ern negroes have it, and when most of the
Republican BATTERED for nearly forty
years over the negro's right to it, we
trust our great Washington leaders treat
with the contempt il deserves.

Senator Caffery asserts that Senator
Plat of New York was responsible for the
defeat of the national quarantine bill
which was never even called up in Con-
gress. The reason given for Senator
Platfs opposition is that there are a
number of fat offices under the state quar-
antine system IN New York. Under a ma
uonal system, these places would either
he abolished, or become federal patron

So IT is to be the Territory of Hawaii
and the territorial form of government al
ready in use in the United States is to be
adopted for Hawaii because the intention
is to admit it as a state when the condi-
ttons are right for the conversion of the
territory into a state of the union. If
Congress acts favoraby on the report 10

will it be before the eXigeucies of the
party which may happen to be in power
at that moment cause a repetition of past
proceedings and the addition of two sena-
tors from the state of Hawaii, whether
Hawaii is fit for statehood or not?

CHICAGO March S.--The officials in
this city of the roads doing business in
Nebraska were highly delighted over
the decision in the maximum freight
rate case. They had for the most part
been confident that the court would
find in favor of the railroads and for
the last six months have been express
ing that opinion. AT the same time
the actual rendering OF the decision
was relief to them, as in case the law
had been held to be valid, the roads
were looking for similar legislation in
other states, If the law had stood as
to freight rates the passenger men
were looking for action covering the
passenger fares and all the roads are
greatly relieved that the danger of be-
ing compelled to make possible reduc'
lions in their rates, when none Of
