TYPHOID FEVER REPORTED.
Twenty-six Cases in One Period OF ed
Hours In Pittsburg Impure Water
and Silk Blamed.

Pittsbnrg, Aug. 2o.--There has been an
alarming spt I'd of typhoid fever Ia this
city FWenty-six eases vas the record II
one period Of "a hours. Or. r l.. Taylor.
the city physician, In speaking on the sub
Ject. said In part:
There Is not the slightest doubt IN my
mind that this great number Of cases IS
fansed by the water and impure mix.
The impure milk In some cases Is caused
by the impure water. Unit. we get the
filtration plant working there Is not much
hope for any great relief. There haze
been many cities where they have had "a
large number OF cases Of this disease and
spread Of the disease stopped.
II don't mean to say that we will not
have any typhoid fever when we get Ill
tered water. There will always be cases
of this kind; but It Will stop a number Of
the cases There should not be anything
like 20 cases Of typhoid fever In one day.
As you viii see by the report, the cases
are not confined to any one locality, but
include all the wards In the city. What
else can 1t be than the water? Some peo-
pie say that typhoid fever Is prevalent
where tho ground has been turned over
and where there Is a great deal of build
Ing This may be the truth to some very
slight extent, but the late reports show
the city.
There are, OF course, more cases In the
hot weather. This is caused by the fact
that as rule he river Is low an6 all the
sewerage from above comes down here to
US. Ii we could have q lot of rain and the
river was cleaned out a bit there would
not be so many cases of fever"

Persistent Rumors That She is Going
on the Stage.
washington, Nov. 27-Members of
the Methodist Episcopal church in this
and other cities are troubled over the
persistent rumors coming from Paris
that Mrs. Ella Root Hurst, wife of Bish-
Oh John f. Hurst, Bishop of Maryland
and chancellor of the American unlVer-
sity. intends to go on the operate
stage.
Mrs Hurst separated from her nus
band about two years ago and has since
that time been living at the French
capital. She has a beautifully cultivat-
ed soprano voice and is passionately
fond of music.
AS wife of the highest official OF the
Methodist church, and the protector OF
the great national university of that
faith she was debarred from INDUCING
in her love of music beyond what could
be heard at sacred concerts and at dl-
vine services. Many of her friends as
sert that this was the principal cause
of her marital unhappiness
She is the daughter of the well
known millionaire Of Buffalo, Francis
Fl. Root. and married the elderly divine
at the earnest solicitation of her father
She was about twenty and Bishop
Hurst was fifty-eight.
