IRON COUNTY, Mo-, Oct. Is.
Mr.. Ake-I see by the papers that
Parson White and several other parties
have left the Republican party and
gone owe to the Democrats as I had
done; but a gentleman called at my
house the other day-the incest mar l
ever met. He shook hands with all of
us and also kissed our baby, and he
did not get mad because the baby
filed his whiskers with sorgum. He
said he heard l had gone over to the
Copperhead Party because the rich
man of the trusts" got everything
aud the poor nothing. He showed me
where We were better of than the rich
men of the "trusts" and corporations
to wit: He had to pay Is cents a
pound for his beef; we saved that be-
cause we had no use for beef; he had
to pay 81 a bottle for champagne which
We did not have to buy; he had to pay
Is cents apiece for cigars and We could
get along with u pipe; he had to
pay 20 cents a pound for an English
mutton chop, when we could get along
with plenty of walnuts and hazeInuts
we find in the woods. Now, sir, there
was so much truth in what he said
that it has set me a thinking, whether
to go back to the G. O. P. or not.
Can you advise mep ERGO.

/ CAUSES MANY DEATHS
STATE BOARD OF HEALTH ON
THE RAVAGES OF TU-
BERCULOSIS
HOW TO GUARD AGAINST IT
Suitable Institution Should Be Pro-
vided to Cope With the Ter
ribIe Disease, Which
Is Spreading.

The seventeenth annual report of the
state hoard of health gives some surpris-
ing figures with regard to the ravages
of tuberculosis in Minnesota. The av-
erage annual mortality from. the dread
disease during the past eleven years has
been 1,50o The mortality from pneu-
monia was SGT; from diphtheria, GA; from
typhoid 521; from scarlatina, 1S9; from
measles, 124.
One of the most interesting features
of the report is recommendation to Se-
cure necessary legislation with a view
to obtaining suitable institutions for the
care of all the unfertunates. afflicted
with the disease.
Following is a paragraph, taken from
the advance sheets of the St Paul Med
ical Journal advising that something be
done:
1.-THE good results obtained in such in
situations the world over, without regard
to climate and the observation Of path
ologiStS of healed tubercular LESSONS,
prove the durability of the disease. The
fact of it's commune ability has been
demonstrated over and over again. both
in laboratories and in the histories of
patients that have acquired the disease
from some intimate friend, or rela tive, Or
fellow workman, or from an infected
house. These two propositions, the truth
fulness OF which no one can successfully

gument as to the duty of the state, and
that duty will be performed when an
enlightened public opinion demands pro-
lection for the community and help for
the sufferer, and probably no sooner. 1t
is therefore the manifest duty of every
intelligent citizen of Minnesota, whether
a member Of the medical profession Or
of the laity, to aid in this campaign of
education, and see that the members of
the next legislature are properly ir-
structed as to the great need of such
state institutions
The relative Importance of diphtheria
as a cause of death has been most ma
teriallY lessened by the improved meth
DDS of treatment. The prophylaxis of
typhoid fever is so thoroughly under
stood, according to the report, that it
will be greatly lessened as the towns of
the state are better drained and secure
pure water supplies. Pneumonia will
probably continue to be as important an
element in the mortality tables as in the
past unless a successful serum therapy
is discovered.

1t is said that during his late illness

their little hearts ard they were solicitous
as to his welfare.

FAMILIES EsTRANGED
BY the Sudden Death of a Black Cat
That Ate Canary.

BY the Sudden Death of a Black Cat
: That Ate Canary.
Baltimore Sun.
This is a tale to demonstrate that
circumstantial evidence Is not always
good evidence. 1t caused a rupture of
friendly. relations between two women
that was finally adjusted by the merest
accident.
But hereby hangs a tale which involves
the question of circumstantiaI evidence,
and that murder will out There are
two Baltimore families in the Western
section Of the city living next door to
each other who for season did net
speak as they Passed by, but who are
now on the most amicable terms, and all
this on account Of a black cat
These two housewives may be desig-
mated as Mrs. A. and Mrs. a., the form
or being the owner of the cat in question,
to which mucn store was set. It appears
that Mrs. B. objected to the frequent
visits to her back yard made by Mrs.
AS cat, and one day it is alleged that
she was overheard tosay she would poison
the intruder that very night. 1t followed
next morning that the cause of the an
noyance was discovered on the back lot
as dead as julius Caesar.
Now, what other inference could Mrs.
A. draw but that Mrs. B. had put her
threat into execution? That the deeu
had been done by Mrs. B. there existed
no doubt in the mind of her next door
dweller, and so she straightaway ac-
cused her neighbor of having committed
the 'crime."
This Mrs. B. vigorously denied. The
result was that all neighborly intercourse
came abruptly to an end. So much for
circumstantial evidence.
Now what happened subsequently is
the sequel which restored friendly re-
Iations between the two families. A
gentleman living IN the same brick block
had pet canary at this time. One even
ing he discovered big black cat in his
room. But this was not all, for the cat
was then and there making a meal of the
bird. Now what was more natural than
for the gentleman to slaughter the de-
stroyer of his feathered songster, caught
red-handed, as 1t were, in the very act?
A short time after this latter occurrence
the owner of the canary Incidentally re-
lated to Mrs. A. the loss of his pet bird
and how he had slain black cat on a
particular evening.
Ali doubt having been now removed
Mrs. A. lost no time in acquainting Mrs
B. with the facts In the case. and so the
two ladies kissed and made up.

MAN AND HIS ENVIRONMENT
RS<. MIR. Smiths Sermon at Wood
land Park Baptist Church


In the absence of a regular pastor,
Rev. e. Otheman Smith, of Cleveland,
O., conducted the services last evening
at the Woodland Park Baptist church,
Selby avenue and Arundel street.
Rev. Smith is really an aspirant for
the vacant pastorship, and his recep-
ton last evening by the eongrega ton was
quite hearty. An eloquent, forcible talk
er, his sermons are convincing, and IN
his effort last evening he made quite an
impression.
Man and His Environment Illustrated
in Experience Of Blind Bartimeus" was
the text of his discourse; and from 1t he
drew a picture Of everyday life, how
man, despite his environment of good, Is
blind to his own interests, willing to see
things as others see them, yet reluctant
to act upon his own responsibility.
1.-THE trouble with man." said Rev. e.
o. Smith. "is not IN his environment
the fault is with himself, he is blind.
Because he is blind does not follow that
everybody else Is blind, for there are
things to be seen, although he cannot
see them. Bartimeus did not belfe%a
everybody else blind because he could
not see He was willing to receive tes
timony from those who could see Man
frail in his nature is too much given to
the things of this life. He cannot see
ahead He has no thought for the fu-
ture Like Bertimeus, I say there is hope
for a man who Is really blind and real
ICES he is such. Only Jesus can open
our eyes and give us light to see the
things that are Tor our good
At the close OF his sermon, Mr.. Smith
was given a hearty reception Next
Wednesday he will conduct the regular
n1id-week services. and Sunday will again
officiate.

ACTORS DELAYED By RAIN
WASHOUTS ON MILWAUKEE, HOLD
"HOPKIN'S TRANS
OCEANICS"
MADE UP ON THE TRAIN
Hacks Conveyed the Members to
Theater and Performance Com
menced on Time - Seven
Inches of Precipitation.

When the curtain went up at 8:25 in the
Grand opera house last night not many
present knew that until within a few
minutes of the management was not
certain that there would be a show at
ALL
Such was the case, however, and only
by 'making-up" on the train and being
driven from the depot in hacks did the
''Transoceanic Stars" manage to appear
before the footlights on time.
The cause of the trouble was the Sc
we're storm Of early Sunday morning, of
which St Paul only caught the tail end.
At Kings Cooley and LamVilIe the tracks
of the Milwaukee road were washed out,
and a delay of many hours ensued.
Such was the violence Of the storm that
at La Crosse the precipitation amounted
to seven inches. A very heavy shower
fell in st. Paul, but here the official rec
ord placed the precipitation at only fif-
teen .one-hundreths of one inch, and by
this comparison the violence of the
storm further south may be realized e.
The rainfull at the places where the
waShouts occurred was so heavy that,
according to telegraphed reports, sew
eral trains were deserted by their fright
ened occupants.
AS soon as communica ton was re-eS-
tablished the theatrical people came on
the first train and arrived in the nick of
time, at 7:45.
Those who had to go on first had al
ready completed their toilets, and they
were rushed up as fast as they could be
driven, while the others followed more
leisurely. None of the scenery belonging
to the company could, of course, be used,
but makeshifts necessitated by the use
of the scenery belonging to the house
were not noticed by those who were en-
joying the show.
On the Northwestern line occurred a
very serious washout, which delayed
traffic all day. One thousand feet Of
roadbed were washed out at Roekland,
Wis, and as in the case of the Milwau-
kee line, trains were abandoned.
Seven inches of rainfall in a few hours
amounts almost to a cloudburst, and,
ordinarily. is a good average for any one
month in the year.
In the city the storm broke between
and o'clock in the morning, and for
fifteen minutes the downpour was tre-
mendous. Belated citizens, caught in it,
will scarcely be inclined to believe OBJ
server Lyons statement that it did not
amount to much more than tenth of an
inch.

While the Republican papers. of the

about an alleged f'Tammany" which has
been organized sto t'bleed" employees OF
the state for the purpose of -fattening
the campaign fund Of the Democratic
state central committee, they have over
looked several things.
They overlooked the letter of Tams
Bixby to A. c. Clausen, in which Adler
was respectfully advised that he would
do well to put up $50 large round plunks
before the committee got to him
They forgot, the-real reason for the fir
ing of lie Sage from the service of the
dairy and food commission at Duluth.
And not the Least ofssthese things, they
forgot that two years ago every employee
of the state prison at Saltwater was as
sessed, and it was. plainly put up to him
IL,
Wolfer, that if he did not come to the
front with the coin he had better begin
looking for another job.
Wolfer is out4now, and the Irvine plant
is under another management, which is
probably the real reason that the Repub-
Hcan workers are worrying so much
about the Irvine plant.
1t is not that it is not turning cut Irvine,
but that it is net turning out money for
T. BiXby's campaign fund.
WHERE THE SHOE PINCHEs.
AS matter Of fact, not an employee
of the state prison., nor any other of the
state institutions, has been assessed I'M
der the present administration, unless the
Republican state central committee or To-
cal committee has had the audacity to
engage in that sort of plumber
Economical administration of the state
institutions was one of the reforms
pledged by Gov. Lind when candidate
two years ago, and shis personal attention
to the sittings of,-the various boards
shows the eaFnestnesS with which he
made this pledge to the voters of Mime
sofa, while tho official figures on file in
the Office of the Republican state audi
tor, Robert C. dunn, show how the cost
per capita of maintaining the various in
stitutions hasS been reduced, not by
starving the inmates or endangering
their health in5any way, but by stopping
the many leaks that had been permitted
to grow during long and uninterrupted
management at the hands of boards par
tisan in their composition; while the Re
publican ring was in power in this state.
The record of the state institutions is
what is worrying the Republicans-not
alone because the employees are not help
ing Tams' fund, but because of the posi-
tive argument they present for the sup
port of the Democratic nominee for gov
ernor.
