Dangers of Filters.

Filters for purifying water are OF
many kinds in their mechanical struc.
ture, but, according to the report OF
the Maryland state board of health, it
would appear that such filters NAV
steadily lose efficiency until they be-
come frst-class culture beds for bac-
terra, In evidence Of this position, an
example cited is that Of man in Balti-
more who sends the whole water sup
ply OF his house through large filter
and subsequently puts his drinking
water through one Of the small domes-
tic filters common in the market.
A test Of this arrangement showed
that on dav when the city taps were
running SO bacteria to the cubic cent?
meter the large filter was delivering
some $500 bacteria in the same water.
When the large filter was reracked.
only bacteria per centimeter GOT
through 1t, though the same water when
passed through the small filter came
out with Il bacteria Der centimeter.
This aspect of the matter is still fur
Their strengthened by another example.
case where filter supposed 10 be the
best IN the market was in use The
effectiveness of this filter was go short
lived that the precaution was observed
OF boiling the water after it was filtered.

that it will finish its work III ii few days

the nature of that report are guesses.
Representative King Of Utah, is a

his ability to size up the political stu

cratic party are determined upon

future: The mistakes in the conduct
OF the War were all minimized by
glorious successes everywhere. The

A careful perusal Of the manifesto
only serves to convince the thoughtful
reader that its author is a man who has
a big opinion of himself. From cover
to cover Dietrich is everywhere in evil
dence. He is the high and mighty one,

teetotally to the dogs. Men who picked
him up and stood By him, advised and
helped, have become disguised with
him. He dismissed old and faithful

their places. He dismissed men who

whole administration has been charact-

Driven to desperation he is now
resorting to all manner of schemes

As for MIR. Starkweather, he has

treated. But in he face Of great diff

he will DO more.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

from our Regular Correspondent
Washington, March 9th. 1899.
President Mckinley had decided to
return to Washington early this week
before he gothic news of the beginning
of what there is every reason to be-
lIeye Will be the final campaign against
the organized Fiiipinos, by Gen. OTIS.
but 1t is probable that the knowledge
that the fighting so VIGOROUSLY started
by tue troops OF Gen. Otis. on SATURDAY.
aud continued OH Sunday, would be
continuous until Aguinaldo's forces
have been crushed, would have caused
him to do SO ANYWAY, as II Is perfectly
natura! that he should wish to be in
Washington while the fighting IS 60
ing on. This Is not because Of any lack
OF confidence in Gen. Olls-he has so
much confidence IN him that be has re-
fused 10 interfere with the order issued
by Gen Otis, putting stop 70 the ne
goitatiaAs by agents Of Spain for the
ransom OF Spanish prisoners held by
AEuInaldo-but because Of his belief
that II is the duty otthe commander-in-
chief oF the army and navy TO be al
headquarters when his subordlnates
are fighting. Acting Secretary or War
Maiklejohn and Adjutant General Cor
bin, who have been at the War Depart
ment almost continuously since the
fighting began, are highly pleased with
the success!u! manner in which the
plans ofGeneral Otis have so far been
carried out, and they are both confident
that Auginaido's army will be a thing Of
the past in few DAYS. and that with
the exception of & little bushwIackinc

"A Good Showing.

The delinquent tax roll for the town
of Gordon just completed. shows that of

81 ,916,44 remain unpaid. The town of
Nebagamon makes almost equally as
good a showing. there being only 81
