Eddie Seybold. whom Carbondalians
will remember for his clever playing in

Scarcely had the applause died away
before Seybold again brought the
crowd to its feet by pulling down in his

later he dashed over the foul line and,
while on dead run caught Ryan's

clans accommodations.

Typhoid fever is quite prevalent in
Carbondale. Since the setting in of
September number of cases have
broken out, and though none thus far
have not been fatal, there are few
dangerous cases.
"A physician of wide practice in dis
cussing the situation with The Tribune
man suggested the wisdom of Impress
ing on the public the urgent necessity
of prudence and caution during the
activity of the typhoid bacili. He ad-
vices that hygenic laws be religiously
observed, that housewives keep the
surroundings of their homes in SAN
itary condition, even to the liberal use
of the most effectual disinfectants.
He further urges the necessity at
this time of boiling all drinking water
and Of stcrilizing milk by scalding. The
impurity of the water and the milk
supply is one of the principal causes of
typhoid fever, through their contribute
ing agencies Nigllant attention, how
ever. to sterilizing water and milk Is
an important step towards the preven-
tion of this disease. with it's terrible
effects in so many cases.

The base ball situation in Carbondale
is what the lawyers would call statu
quo.
Manager Tappan will arrange this
week three or four games which will
close the season. Minooka, which now
has a good team, will likely be here

proposition to Mr.. Tappan to play a
game at Scranton with the semi-profes-

be taken up. This will give Carbondal-
ians and Scrantonians an opportunity
to witness a good game and with suf-
ficient money at stake to make it in
teresting without being nerve-racklng.
AS to the Simon Long and the Pitts
ton Brothers game, Manager Tappan

which if acceptable, will prove quite
drawing card. What the proposition is,
cannot be disclosed as yet.

Moreover, the mere fact of the publica-

for the light of day Is deterrent to

other evils, with which, for the time be-

Finally, it would disclose Others that

only can advise, and which he has no
