REPORT IS MADE
DIR. Koch's Decision on
Spread of Malaria.
Studies Made In ttaIS-There - n
Parasite Carry
the Disease.

NEW YORK. February iS.-A cable
to- the sun from London says: profcs-
sor Koch's demonstration that malaria
Is a parasite disease and hts evidence
In support OF his theory that Il T.
spread chiefly by mosquitoes are con
Gained In an interesting report which
he and his associates. Professors Pfcif-
fer and Koshel. have just issued as the
result OF their Investigations IN Italy.
The chief object of the expedition was
the study of the different kinds of
malarial fever prevalent in Italy. DR..
Koch and his companions examined
seVsnty-eight cases. They succeeded Ia
determining that this malaria can.
from "A clinical standpoint. be- divided
into subdivisions. but that as far as
its cause Is concerned Il constitutes =
whole. and Is caused by q single clear
~ characterized parasite.
Koch is OF the opinion that mos
quitoes are in reality accountable foI
the spreading OF malarial parasites and
carry them from one person to- another
They are the middlemen of the para
sites. In support OF his mosquito the
DRY DIR. Koch refers to- observations or
the local spread OF malaria in ant
around Rome. The city of Rome lie.
in the midst OF an extensive malarts
district. but Is itself free from malaria
The cause OF this immunity cannot IL
in the air. or in the water. or in tn
food. The only noticeable distinction
between the town and It's surrounding
is that the inner portion of the towi
is devoid OF vegetation. and therefor
lsntirely free from mosquitoes. whcrca
the surroundings swarm with Enats a
various kinds. Where vegetation - q
be seen. in large gardens. and 80 on
gnats appear within and without IN
walls of Rome. and with them appear
malaria.

POOR WHEAT PROSPECT.
UnfavOrable Reports From the
Wheat Section.

w. II. Cochran. a farmer and large
wheat raiser living on the Geo. Eaton
farm near Clarem0re, was in town a
day or two ago. He reported the
wheat crop greatly damaged in his
section from the extreme freezing
weather in February.
]. o. Hall returned Sunday from
his ranch in the western portion.saf
the Cherokee nation, and says tits
estimated that fifty per cent Of the
wheat crop in that section is totally
destroyed. Mr. Hall says that whole
fields are entirely bare. all being
frozen out, and the best fields are
frozen in spots. 1t doubtless means
Il short wheat crop, which, coming on
the failure of last year, will make it
hard on the farmers.

THE PRESIDENT ACTS.
Wisdom Removed - Town
Commissioner Appointed.

Indian Territory matters have
engaged The attention of President
Mckinley during the last few days.
A successor to Agent Dew NJ. Wis
dom has been selected in the per-
son of Mr.. J B. Schoenfeldt, Of
Wyoming. According to Wash
ington correspondence in the South
McAlester Capital, charges have
been preferred against Agent Wis
dom; Just what is the nature of the
charges deponent saith not.
Mr.. Samuel NJ. Johnston. of
Troy, Kansas, chairman, of the
Chickasaw town site commission
and Mr.. Sterrett. of Troy, Ohio,
chairman of the Chociaw board
have been in Washington during
the past few days receiving in
structions from Commissioner of
Indian Affairs Jones, preparatory
to the commencement of their
work. They will meet next week
in MuskOgee where the representa-
tives of the two boards will consult
as to the best course to pursue, and
map out a plan of action. 1t has
not ye, been decided where the
Choctaw commission will COM
mence its work, but IT is presumed
that their first work will be in
South McAlr-ter. The Chickasaw
commission, it is NJ derstood, will
commence their work at Ardmore
and a plat of the town will be
made as soon as practicable 1t is
doubtful whether the two commits
sions will complete their work at
Ardmore aud South McAlester
within the next two years and it
is now apparent that congress viii
be called upon to authorize the
appointment Of additional tOwnsite
appraisers for those two nations.
Dwight w. Tuttle, of Connecti-
cut has been appointed chairman
of the townsite board tor Musko-
gee. The appointment was made
upon the demand of Senator Platt,
of Connecticut, who is one of the
leading members of the committe
on Indian affairs of the senate and
upon the recommendation of FORM
er secretary of the interior, Bliss.
Mr.. Tuttle will leave Washington
in few days for MuskOgee.
The Indian department is now
considering the question of the
government taking charge of the
Indian schools in the territory in
accordance with the provisions of
the treaties made between the gov
eminent and the Choctaw, Chicka-
saw and Creek nations, and the
Curtis law whicn has gone into ei-
feet in the Creek and Cherokee
nations. Under the Curtis law,
as well as tho treaties approved,
the Indian Office has complete jur-
isdiction and control over the In
dian schools. Commissioner Jones
has written superintendent of In
dian schools, John D. Benedict,
for information in regard to the
Indian schools in the territory and
as soon as a reply is received some
plan will be mapped out in the
future.

Peach Trees Killed.

A careful examination Of the peach
trees, both young and old, reveals the
fact that they are damaged and many
are as good as dead. The wood OF the
trunks and branches is brown and
dead within, and the trees would
about as well be cut down. The ap-
pie crop seems to be ali right, as are
also plums, cherries and most other
fruits.
