An Executive BOarder-"It is
strange fact that Governor Dietrich. the
newly elected Executive of Nebraska, is
only a hoarder IN the fine Governors man
sion at Lincoln" said Representative
Stark this morning. Governor Dietrich
is a widower. and though he has a daugh-
ter sees but little of her. because she is
at college at Bryn Mawr. Consequently
he had no use for the great house that
was put at his disposal by the people
There was great hubbub raised when he
was about to be indicted into office. be-
cause it vas Tumored that he favored sell

around the Governors family, was much

TESTING KOCH'S THEORY.
New York Doctor Higgins Careful Ex-
periments ns 10 Communicates
Of Animal Tuberculosis.

Determined to disproye by actual
tests, il possible, the declaration of
DR.. Koch, the eminent Berlin special
list, that human tuberculosis and bo-
-xiae- tuheTet,lesis-are -Ret- iatsleata-
municable, n most important and
thorough experiment has just been
begun in Brooklyn. DR.. George ID.
Barney is conducting the tests.
DIR, Barney, the prime mover in the
matter, like many other physicians,
refused to accept as well founded DR..
koch's statement made before the in
ternatonal tuberculosis congress in
London last August. DR.. Koch ut that
time claimed that tubercular bacilli
of COW could not inoculate human
being, contrary to the accepted med
ical view of such conditions. DR. Bar
ney said: "If DR.. Koch's statement be
true. just consider how much money
has been wasted and is still being
wasted every day. | understand the
state of New York has already spent
something like S2.OoO,O0O in the de-
struction of cattle afflicted with tn
berculosis. Immediately after heard
of DR.. Koch's theory | determined to
test its soundness. as | am convinced
that it is wrong.

care that she should be in the best

several tests to prove that she is in
a perfectly healthy condition, and WI

PYTHON SWALLOWS GATOR.
Dig Reptile mt Central Park Mem
agcric Makes II Meal of Cap
tive Companion.

The largest of the three pythons in
the Central park On. " menag-
eric fcl, hungry the other morning.
Uncniling itself from around the top
of the tree trunk in Its cage in the
monkey house, it crawled over toward
the tank of water. where three young
a,ligatorS were lying asleep, and swal-
lowed the largest one. which measured
two feet eight inches. The snake was
eight feet long. The swallowing proc
ess is supposed to have taken about an
hour.
Jake Cook. the keeper of the monkey
house. entered the building as the
snake was completing its meal. He
reached the cage in lime to see the ALI
gators tail twitching as il disap-
prarcd from view. The keeper knew
tittt-itt.- t.t,.t+t-- ttt-t--t.Srttr-th victim
without damage to the python. and py-
thonS are more valuable than ALI
gators. so he notified Superintendent
Smith, of the meuagerie. Smith or
dered the other two ahigatorS taken
from the cage. lestthe snake swallow
them also. The python evidently did
not consider one alligator sufficient
for meal. for he slid into the water
tank at frequentintervals and searched
about for the others he had pre-
viouSly seen there. When the snake
| stretched itself on the floor there was
an apparent bulge in its middle, and
the outlines of the alligator could be
seen plainly.
Superintendent Smith said that the
python would have its strange meal d.
gested in about a week without any
bad consequences. He was surprised
at its conduct. as the two species of
reptiles live in peace with each other
in IA wild state, and that was why he
| had put them in the same cage.

HARVARD ATHLETE AS NURSE
Biu-Hearted student Hears of Case
of sickness and Distress and Acts
Part of Good Samaritan.

Harvard's star first baseman and
football player, 0rville G. Frantz, left
his practice on the Harvard campus
and walked two miles through q
drenehing rain to nurse q sick la
borer.
The man, Jere Kennedy, was an en-
gineer for G. A. Fuller & CO.. con-
tractors, and was sick with typhoid
fever. For a week he kept at his
post, running the hosting engine, but
becoming too weak to stand was
compelled to go to doctor. "Sakes
alive, man." said the doctor, when he
saw the engineer, get TO the hospi-
tai at once, or you will be a dead
man."
But l can't" he protested. 81 need
my wages, because my wife is out in
the country under treatment for CON
sumption, and my three boys are at
home alone"
Disregarding the doctors injunc-
ton. the man tried to find car for
his home in Cambridgeport. His fever
was 1906. and in his efforts he became
delirious and lost his way.
The Riverside mission rescued him
after he had sat up all night, too sick
to lie down, and after he had left
word at q grocery store to feed his
boys when he was dead.
Frantz is member of the Y. NJ c.
A., which aids the mission. When he
heard of the sick man he left his foot
ball practice and hurried to the little
house along the river district. He got
a doctor and nurse and hired cook
30 care for the little boys, the oldest
of whom is ten.
When Kennedy recovered from de-
irium later and found a six-footcr in
crimson sweater and cap holding his
hand he could not understand.
II thought Harvard boys We're just
sports" he said.

o CONTROL SCHOOL SUPPLIES
Brother OF Senator Teller Heads New
community of Interests" syndicate
Organized In Chicago

Chicago. Nov. SO.-A combination of
a number of the most important
school apparatus dealers of the coun-
try has been effected, it is said, by the
American Syndicate company. James
II. Teller, of this city, a brother of
United States Senator Teller, of Col
orado, is mentioned as the leader of
the movement. The community of
interests" idea--the cooperative prin-
iple rather than a trust agreement
is the basis of the organization, the
main purpose of which, it is claimed.
will be to improve existing trade
methods which are pronounced to be
unsatisfactory to dealers as well as
to the public. The aim of the COM
bination is understood to be the con-
troll of the entire school apparatus
business.
