SOME PRAIRIE
A ON r

A CHAPTER ON GERMS.
There are microbes in the butter,
Microbes floating in the air,
Microbes in the words we utter,
Microbes in our skin and hair,
Microbes swimming in the water,
Microbes hidden in the ink,
Microbes in our books and letters
Microbes in the thoughts we think.
There are germs in all our foodstuffs,
Ptomaines in the sausage link,
Toxins in our ice cream soda,
And bacilli in our drink,
We are laden with bacteria,
We are honeycombed with germs
Till in time to come we will not
Be a fit food for the worms.
They,r X in every nook and corner,
On each passing breeze they float,
When we breathe ,uncounted millions
Run a race adoWn the throat,
They are lurking in the byWays,
They are loafing on the street,
They are waiting on the highways,
Just to eat and eat and eat.
Tho. we be the gTimmest skeptics,
Think once Science must have lied,
WV AIl s0ocO AWAGAlF
And fill up on g~ermicide,
We are driven to detection.
Every deed and every breath
Is subject to disinfection,
We are sterilized to death.
1--WE must fumigate our houses,
We must disinfect our grub,
When we baLhe, be it how often
We must steriiize the tub,
We reek of carbolic acid,
And a hundred drugs beside,
We have left of drinking water
And we drink formaldehyde.
can almost hear ST. Peter,
On the dread distant day
When the horn OF Gabriel tfumpets
Languid1y rise up and say:
Why, Good Morning, glad to 9 yots
You're a soul we've always priced,
But we can't allow you In here
Till you have been sterilized.

The second day of the second trial
of Joseph Driller, for the murder OF
Louis Dittmore, on a boathouse at
Whisky run, July 4th, last, opened
yesterday morning with a comparative
" small attendance of people, and
with Alfred Michaels on the stand.
This witness was soon followed by
August Schneider, and he by Scott
Davis. The main witness of the morn
ing session for the State was J.. R.
Watkins, of Washington, Pa. Wat
kins, it will be remembered, came to
this city on July Sd to buy a boat
house for a trip down the river. He
told his story of going over to Bridge
port and down the Ohio side OF the
river, looking for a boat, and of meet
ing Driller and his companions at
Whisky run. Witness went on board
the boat, and saw a woman lying on
a mattress with her eyes BACKED and
bruises on her body. Witness made a
deal to buy the boat for $40 with Drill
Ter, and during the conversation wit
ness said defendant remarked, refer
ring to the woman and her eyes:
"Ain't that beautiful? I gave her
that" At this the woman said he did
not strike her, but that the blows were
inflicted by "Ditty." The witness then
said:
"Driller told me he was away last
night and when he came home and
found the woman there with a black
eye he asked Dittmore if he did it.
Dittmore said, so help me Christ
but before he got another word out Of
his mouth Driller hit him and knocked
him into the river. Then Driller
knocked him into the water several
times"
The witness was still on the stand
at noon, and was recalled in the after
noon, but there was no essential differ
ence between his evidence yesterday
and that given on the former trial.
In the afternoon Mrs. Parker, the
woman with the black eyes," vas
placed on the stand by the State, and
told practically the same old story of
the events on the boat-house on July
Cd and 4th. She left the stand about
half-past four, and was succeeded by
Police officers Meyers nd Larkins.
The trial will be resumed this norm
ing.
