The Grip.

Without asking the doctors to
tell us, we can safely say the grip
is in Cumberland. We have posi-
tive evidence of it's existence.
The doctors are busy. The grip is
certainly upon us
We used to have infuenzas.
More than a hundred years ago
they had the grip in they
called their inhuenzas by the
name of la grippe. 1t took nearly
a century for the name to come
over to this country and be Ameri-
oanized. Could it be the thing it.
self was so long coming. Yet it is
possible that conditions that pro-
duce differentiation from old
fashioned influenza may have
hung back, to arrive at last in a
very convincing way.
Everybody should be careful at
this time. The best way to fight
the grip is to give in to it on its
first attack. Get under cover.
Ycu can brace against some things.
Grip appears not to be one of
them. Drop work for day or
two, obey the doctor implicitly,
and you will avoid the complica-
tions that may otherwise come
and you will get we'll.
If there is grip microbe there
is also fear microbe. Don't let
that get you. Go your way care
fully but not fearfully. Keep dry
and warm, but not too warm, and
don't hunt trouble.

Chicago, Aug. IA petition in
bankruptcy was filed Thursday in be-
half of the George H. Phillips COM
pany, and the Chicago Title & Trust
company was appointed receiver for
the corporation. The assets are $780,
600 and the liabilities from $225,0OO
to $25O,OOO. The application for a re-
ceiyer was made late in the afternoon
by three of the largest creditors, at
the instance of the late '"corn king"
To place the company in better po-
sition Phillips filed the petition in
bankruptcy. The Chicago Title &,
Trust company has filed a bond for
$15O.OOO.
The accounts of the Phillips COM
pany show questionable manipula-
tions, and despite the efforts of four
experts who have worked for two
weeks and of the auditing committee,
composed of Phillips, C. B. Moore and
w. L. Sackett, they have been unable
to unravel the tangled condition of
the books. The accountants cannot
make the books balance, and no bal
ance had been taken off since January
1. AS far as the experts have gone
there is said to be deficit of nearly
100000, which cannot be traced. The
only way that the officials of the COM
pany can account forit is that the books
seem to have been manipulated. Certain
clerks are said to have speculated on
their own accounts, putting the poor
trades that showed losses down to the
house and taking the good ones that
showed profits to themselves.

er Rockhill has not reported to the
state department as to whether the
protocol provides for the destruction
of the Taku forts, but if the press
advices are correct, that the minis.

be in line with the desires of this
government from the outset. When
the first tentative plan of negotia.

razing of the Taku and other forts.
this government expressed doubt as
to the advisa ability of such move,
and it has all along been averse to
including it in the protocol.
