The prevalence of this disease at
the asylum from the apparent cause,
coupled with the fact that, by re.
cent decision of the supreme court by
which 1t was held that the state is not

this institution with another and more

has been thinking Of arranging with

which the state has been drawing it's
supply for the prison and the asylum.
Since the fever first appeared at the
asylum, Superintendent Calbreath or
dered the water supply from Mill

tinued. This supply has been re.
placed with water from the well at the
main building, and TO maintain an ad-
equate supply for the needs of the in

continually. This means of supply
will serve until the summer season
arrives, and by that time 1t will be
necessary for a further supply to be
provided.
Superintendent Calbreath reports
that the sanitation at the asylum Is.

the fever can be traced TO unsanitary

Save for those two rooms wherein
lights shone at night, the house was al
ways in darkness; no CLEAN from gas
jet or lamp dispelled the shadows in
the long and gloomy passages. Ursula
Sewell remembered, however. the part

seen the girl taken; she set out for ii.

and listening intently for any chance
sound which might suggest that any,
one was following or observing her. Co
ing on In this cautions fashion, she had
come to the end Of corridor, near the
top OF the house, out of which doors
opened on either side: the faint light
which came through window at the
end, showed her where the doorways
were.
Then, suddenly. one of the doors at
the. far end of this corridor opened. and
the faint light was increased by the
light of candle. Watching eagerly
Ursula saw come from the door first a
candlestick. and then an arm; all very
slowly; then, following the arm, the
figure of the girl she sought. She drew
back round the corner at the end of
the passage and peered out.
Very slowly, Olive Mallory came on
down the corridor. with the light held
before her, and with her eyes staring

SUES FOR LOST TIME.

TTIME IS MONEY, said a sage who
L was being talked into distraction
by a bore. The saying is nos literally
true, for many people who have lots
OF time have very. little money, but it
is true enough to rank as a proverb. A
Washington court is soon to be asked
to set a money value on time. The
task is difficult but not a bit more
Troublesome than fixing the value of a
life, for instance.
The Washington man, he halls from
Whatcom, is setting an entirely new
fashion, one that is likely 10 become
popular wherever telephone exchanges
exist. He has kept track of the time
lost in securing switches TO people
with whom he desires to communicate
and has found that the aggregate takes
a considerable slice out Of his working
hours From three TO fifteen minutes,
he alleges, are lost nearly every time he
uses the telephone
Maybe the hello giri is busy chewing
gum; perhaps she is talking 10 her best
young man; perhaps she is sleeping.
Anyway. she doesn't answer the What
com man as he thinks she should, and
he has filed a suit for damages under
a clause IN mis- contract which guaran-
tees prompt and efficient service. The
outcome Of the action viii be awaited
with interest. not only in Whatcom,
but elsewhere on the earth.
Everybody who uses a telephone has
had similar experiences, and everybody
knows there are few things more eX-
as )e-ating than turning bell crank
for FIVE or ten minutes at d time with
out result Let as all hope. too. that
the courts viii hold it to be misde-
meanor fer any telephone to be busy
when called through any other tele-
phone. That is another feature of the
service which drives patient men TO
profanity.
