looking shoats, horses up to the
average. One horse was reported
with a record of 2:26, which was
considered too fast for farmer and
the host was advised to dispose of
it. Had he been so inclined he
could doubtless have effected a
trade with some of his advisors.
Mr.. Grove asked for the best

with slop and some green feed and
when they reached about 70 lbs.

on corn, giving them all they would
eat two or three times day.
Mr.. Reeder asked how he could

Since October 1 diphtheria has
prevailed rather extensively in the
vicinities of Providence, Rowland
vile and iColora. The schools at
Rowlandville and Colora were clos
ed for short periods.
Three cases of scarlet fever were
reported at Lombard and one at
North East.
Since October fifty-one cases of
typhoid fever were reported in Elk
ton. Three oiher cases were con-
tracted here and developed the
disease after removal. This cpl
demic was investigated by the
State and County Boards of Health
and the Town Council discussed it
at a special meeting. AS all the
cases had used milk from one dairy
and the State Chemist found adul-
terants in the products of this dairy
the Secretary of the State Board
swore out warrant for the dairy
man.
The Town Council very properly
wishes it understood that the san
itary condition of the town was in
no way responsible for the out
break. During this period there
were no other cases in the town.
Two cases resulted fatally.
Twenty-three deaths and seven
teen births were reported for

Increase Your Coal Pile.

Keep water in the ashpan Of
your stove and you may double the
heat from the coal. The vapoI
rising from the water when il
mingles with the burning coal, is
converted into combustihle gas and
consumed with the coal, thereby
increasing the heat. Seven Fights
of the water is converted into gas
and burned. A pound of water is
about equal to pound of coal as a
heat maker. Coal is very dear.
The coal trust is getting back its
contributionsto the Mckinley fund.
There is no trust on water and by
-eking out your coal pile with water
you can beat the coal trust to some
extent.

Dont Go 10 Nome.

The 30, 600 people gathered at Cape
Nome are passing through wor;e

early mining days of California, and
'hat Is saying not littl>. In The
FIRST place the golden sands Of the
sea shore are well nigh exhaus ted,
and no pay country ha: been SO far
discovered ct the back of them. OF
course, in time there will be both al

the gold washed out on the beach
must come from somewhere. But
this Is a matter Of capital and of eX-
ploratlon, for which the host now
there is in no maancr prepared.
Want, distress aud crime have taken
such possession OF the place that
Captain Rindle had to establish mill
tary government, proclaim martial
law and entorce it with the few col
dlerS at his command. That officer
seems to have acted promptly, wisely
aud well, .nd saved the place from
becoming a hell upon earth. Every
man is leaving who can pay his way
out, which the great majority cannot
do, We very much suspect that
cry will soon arise for the govern
ment to send transports to take the
starving people away. Governments
have done such things before and
there exists many preccdents for the
course suggested. To make matters
norse smallpox in an epidemic form
has broken out, and there is need for
