THE TEXAS FEVER.

A late decision of the Texas Su-

in Texas. where the subject OF Iexas
fever ought to be thoroughly under
stood, it will also hold good in other
states, part of which are above and
part above the line. .-,,.

The boilers used to heat water at

morning about 1890 O'Clock and did
about 5000 worth of damage. Too

DIR. DEWITT DEAD.

DIR. Alfred o. Dewitt died at hit
home on North Military street ir
this city on Wednesday afternoon
March 26, at 5:10 o'clock.
DIR. Dewitt was stricken with
sickness on the Goth inst, and al
though everything was done thai
medical skill could do, all efforts
were in vain. The disease wac
acute pneumonia and he never had
real rallying spell. All winter ne
was very busy man, attending &c
a host of patients. His practice
was large aud his hours OF rest un'
certain. HE friends told him time
and again he was working too hard
and that he should rest. but true
physician and man that he was, he
would not shirk his labors or neg
lect his sick.
DIR. Dewitt was born In Lake
county, Indiana, April q, 1871, and
was therefore at the time OF his
death thirty years, eleven mouths
and five days old. He came to Kan
sas with his parents and they set
tied in Elk county. When old
enough he began the study OF med
icine, and graduated from the Gin
cinnati medical college with high
honors. In 1893 he came to Baxter
Springs and by his gentlemanly
conduct and strict devotion to his
patients sson built up a pratice
that physicians twice az old
would have been proud of. He was
married September 4, 1894, to Carrie
Danplade. Of this union one child,
a son, Armand Alfred, was born.
His practice continued to enlarge
and he decided to renew his studies,
80 away he went to college again.
He returned TO Baxter and wore
himself out. We believe this is a
fact.
DIR. Dewitt was a man universally
liked and highly respected. He
was honest, kind and sympathetic.
No man asked him for help and
was refused. AS husband and
father he was all that could be de-
sired. He long ago made provision
for his family by erecting a nice
home and taking out heavy life
insurance. He was member OF
the Masonic fraternity. Modern
Woodmen of America, Select
knights and Ladies, and Order OF
the Eastern Star.
Funeral services were held yester-
day afternoon at the NJ. E. church
and the interment was in the Baxter
cemetery. The large assemblage
at the last sad rites bore mute testi-
mony to the high esteem in which
the deceased was held.
Baxter Springs can i'll afford the
loss, and the sympathy of the entire
community goes out to the young
widow and her little son, the
mother, three brothers and sister.
