HOSPITAL TROUBLES
BROUGHT TO AN END
AUDITOR WELLS LAYS DOWN A
SATISFACTORY PLAN.
Will Audit Claims in a Way That
Will Leave No Deficit Next
January.

If the Finance and Hospital commit
tees of the Board of Supervisors had con-
suited Auditor Wells when the shortage
in hospital funds developed they would
have saved themselves several days of
worry and figuring The Auditor "opened
up shop" yesterday morning by an an
nouncement that he would not abide by
the relief resolution adopted by the Su-
pervisors on Monday, and a half dozen
county contractors were soon on hand
with further threats to shut off all sup
plies.
Dr. Hodghead and Chairman Attridge
were at once informed of the Auditor s
decision and immediat tely sought a con-
ference with him at his office He in
formed them he would audit no claims
drawn on either the statutory salaries or
urgent necessity funds, but would ar
against tie hospital fund up to Septem-
Der IS, on an appropriation of $113 900 per
year, and all claims contracted thereafter
on an appropriation of 800 900 In that
way the hospital would be only a hun
dred or so dollars behind and the result
would be achieved that was contemplated
in the resolution adopted by the Super
VisOrs.
Auditor Wells said he had every right
TO figure the appropriation up to Septem-
Der IS al $4,000 per year, as that was
the figure set in the provisional tax lew
The 900 appropriation was not fixed un-
til the permanent levy went into effect
Auditor Wells decision finally disposes of
the hOGpitalS s troubles. and so satisfac-
torily that there win be no deficit to face
at the end of the fiscal year

REPORTER SNOW
WAS DROWNED IN
THE BAY WATERS
Wash he'd Off a Launch
by a Wave.
MET DEATH DOING HIS DUTY
ASSOCIATES TRIED IN VAIN TO
SAVE HIM.

VIII A. Snow, marine reporter of the
chronicle, was drowned about s o'clock
last night while in the pursuit Of his duty
as a reporter. He went out on the launch
Sybil with Reporter Archie Rice and
Artist Johnson of the Chronicle to get
the news from the incoming transport
Tartar which brought into port the
Kansas volunteers. The launch went
alongside Of the transport in the stream
as she was coming in and threw out A
line to the transport. Snow was a Kansas
man. He was a classmate and close
friend Of General Funston and was per
sonally acquainted with many Of the
Kansas volunteers, and a lively CONVEX
sation began between the transport and
the launch
While Snow was shouting to Steele. cor
respondent of the Kansas City Star. q
heavy wave struck the launch, the water
being very rough, and Snow was thrown
TO the deck Captain Frank Peters of the
launch saw the mishap and shouted to
Snow to go aft. Snow remained where he
was and held on TO the side rail. The
transport and the launch were grindine
together on the high sea. Another wave
struck the launch. Then it is supposed

speed, but to no avail. The body was
not recovered.
Will A. Snow was a graduate of the
University of Kansas, of which his
father, one of the most prominent ento-
mologists living, is the president He
came TO California about a year and a
half ago, having been called to Stanford
University as an instructor in ento-
mology. He was success as an in
structor, and several Eastern UNIVERSE
ties invited him to instruct for them He
refused, simply because he had a taste
for newspaper life and was fascinated
with 1t. Stanford lured him back for a
term. Then he returned to newspaper
work. He became marine reporter for
the Chronicle three months ago. His en-
thusiasm was unbounded When the
transport Sherman came into port he
learned that there were reporters for
The Call aboard and he was shut out. He
ran alongside of the ship and risked his
life to make flying leap for the ship 5
ladder He was ordered to get off the
ladder by the ships officers, but would
not relax his hold until an officer went
down the ladder and stamped on his
fingers, crushing them nearly to pulp
On another occasion he saved a rival
newspaper man from drowning by pulling
him out of the bay which finally encom-
passed his death He was a courteous
gentleman, good friend, a chivalric
newspaper man. His age was 29 He
was a member of the Phi Kappa Psi fra
ternity. His home was in Lawrence
kanS.

POSTUM CEREAL.
INSANE MAJOR.
Change of Food Cured Him.

What a determined and intelligent
wife can accomplish is well shown in
the experience of a certain retired ma
jor Of the Civil War and his estimable
wife. For obvious reasons the name
and exact address of the major is with.
held, but the facts are given by his
cousin, a well-known lady Of Marion,
Ohio.
Without apparent cause, but coming
on gradually the major lost his mind,
and some Of the most eminent special
lists in brain and nervous diseases
stated that he would never recover,
strongly recommending the wife to
place him in an asylum, although con-
hdent he would live only few months
Being a woman of much strength OF
character, she refused 10 incarcerate
him, but on the contrary took him to
a cottage along the shores Of a little
lake for the summer and devoted her
self entirely 10 the case, studied him
carefully and especially applied herself
70 the preparation Of food and drink,
gradually eliminating what was harm
full and substituting nutritious and
properly selected articles, with the
startling result that in about six
months he was an absolutely sane man,
and III a year was healthier than he
had ever been in his life
She recites that the chief agency in
his return TO health was Postum Cereal
Food Coffee, for from the moment she
began using that article in place OF
coffee he improved in q marked degree.
At one time she left off Postum and
allowed him 10 use ordinary coffee, and
he had a quick and serious backset.
Returning to Postum he improved; now
they use nothing else and are most en-
thusiastic in their faith IN its health
giving qualities, and naturally make
many converts among their friends.
The .relater adds "At first we
thought Postum was fiat and tasteless,
but after following the directions ex-
actly and boiling it twenty minutes we
secured n richness equal TO the best
Mocha and Java. and enjoy it greatly
I have lost that heavy, depressed feel
ing that obtained formerly. and my
children are growing fat on Postum"
The lady requests that her name be
omitted from publication. The name,
however. viii be given by letter upon
application to the Postum Cereal Co.,
Ltd. at Battle Creek Mich.

that Snow went overheard. No one saw
him as he struck the water. Indeed, he
was at first mistaken for a floating pack
age which Steele was to have cast over
the side of the transport. As soon as he
was missed-and he was then perhaps
forty feet astern, Archie Rice shouted for
the soldiers on the transport TO throw out
a life-preserver which they did There
were no life-preservers on the launch nor
anything that could be thrown out to help
save life
The line that held the launch to the
transport was not cast off Immediately.
The soldiers did not understand what had
happened. Two attempts were made TO
pull the launch clear Finally Captain
Peters yanked the line from the bitt All
the time Snow was drifting away on
swift ebb tide. AS soon as the launch
was clear she backed. Snow was then
shouting in a panicky way. He was told
10 keep still to save his strength, that the
launch would save him as soon as it could
be turned After the launch was under
way Snow was not seen. The launch
cruised for some time and went out to
the Gate and came slowly in under half
