years, is his great aunt. Her father
was twice married, which accounts for
her being younger than her nephew.

In reference to typhoid fever, there
are three important lessons to 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 morbifc 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 it's
transmission to the stomach There is
also a 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 its introduce
tion into the system. The absorption
Of the poisonous emanations by the
salivary secretions and by food stored
I'm 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.

OHIO INAUGURATION
Governor Bushnell and the state ON
GERS Formally Installed

NefA NnfNnNity huatNlieN
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. n. Special
trains from all parts OF the state
brought at least $4,000 Republicans
here Sunday and yesterday morning TO
participate In or witness tho second
Inauguration Of Governor Asa S Bush.
nell and TO take part in the great
Hanna mass meeting called by the
Republican state central committee
for yesterday afternoon.
The entire police force Of the city
was on duty and was aided by many
detectives from other places Many
members of the state militia were also
present in arms and In consequence,
though there was intense excitement
all morning, there we're no serious
clashes, nor did the trouble antici-
pated last week materialize.
To avoid possible conflict the inaug-
ural parade, in which few except
militiamen and friends Of the anti
Hanna faction participated, was held
shortly after noon and the Hanna
mass meeting was postponed until 3
o'clock
During the forenoon the state house
was surrounded by crowds cheering
for Bushnell As it was impossible
for the crowds to get inside the
capital building the governor was
called out into the grounds,
where he addressed the multitude and
received in review one delegation
after another The first delegation to
which the governor responded was
from his home at Springfield, and in
cluded hundreds of workingmen from
Bushnelps shops, bearing written
greetings OF confidence in him.
! These demonstrations continued till
noon, when Governor Bushnell was
escorted to the rotunda of the state
house, where the decorations in floral
designs and bunting were more
elaborate than ever before. The
members of the supreme court legis-
lature and all other state officers
were provided with reserved seats
and the crowds occupied all the
space in windows, galleries, and
everywhere, while the streets and
state house grounds were crowded
with shouters. A very small percent
age could gain admission to the state
house, but when cheers were heard
inside the echo was taken up on the
outside and the air was filed with
loud responses.
The exercises in the rotunda we're
according to the usual programme.
The oath of office was administered
by Chief Justice Burkett, who was re-
elected upon the ticket last November
with Bushnell The governor was
given an unusual ovation when he
first appeared upon the platform and
again when he appeared TO deliver his
inaugural address. This was short and
contained no reference TO the contest
for the Senatorship.
Cheers followed the close of the ad-
dress and the ovation continued as
long as the governor was in sight All
who could get into the push followed
him to the executive chamber to con
gratulGte him.

From The Boston Traveller: A


From the Boston Traveller A Lon
don statistlcian has been looking mp
the records and has made a diagram
showing the annual variation in the
price of wheat since 1641. The most
remarkable fact disclosed by his inves-
legations is that the price rises and
falls with great regularity every four
years, and he explains that the phe-
nomenon is due to the fact that when
the market has been good farmers
have planted an increased quantity,
thus making a larger supply and fore
ing prices down again. The average
price i'm 1895 was % shillings / pence
quarter or 40 cents a bushel, and In
1896 26 shillings pence. or IS cents a
bushel. The highest price ever known
for wheat occurred in 1912. when it
sold for 126 shillings 6 pence a quar-
ter. or about S3.S5 a bushel. The low
est price was in 1743, when it fell to
% shillings 1 pence, or 60 cents a
bushel. although it should be remem-
bered that the value OF money was
very much greater in those da,g than
now. Wars in any part Of the earth
have invariably increased the price of
wheat The most rapid advance ever
noted was in 1893, when the career of
Napoleon was at its height Wheat
went from 81 to $3.50 a bushel in a
few months.

From the Now 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 a match
was made the conditions were provid-
ed that the contestants would give
or take two pounds, as that was not
considered an undue advantage for
either man. Nowadays when two box
ers arrange a match they stipulate that
each shan weigh a certain number of
pounds at a certain hour, and the man
who exceeds the weight agreed upon
usually forfelts snug sum. Ere
quently the man who is at weight de-
clines to go 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-
tinized for unauthorized ounces. Some
years ago the divisions between the
boxers were marked by the terms ban
tam, feather weight, lightweight. vel
ter weight, middle weight, and heavy
weight, Heavy weights were men at
l5S pounds or over; middle. li2 to l5S,
welter, 1873 to 142; light, 1872 to 1885,
feather, not exceeding l22; bantams,
1O5 to lis. Those limits are now un-
recognized Every boxer insists on
sparring 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 division weight cuts no
figure. as any man weighing 15S pounds
or over is in that class. Fitzsimmons
conceded dozen pounds to Corbett,
and the latter gave that much to Sui
livan. Caspar Icons claim to the
l05-pound championship Of America is
case in point. Leon has been twice
defeated by Barry the Chicago boy,
who is undoubtedly the bantam cham
pion of America. However. "Parson"
Davies admits that Barry cannot box
much below 10S pounds, although at
one time he got down to 102 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.
