The Modern Nurse.

The London Lancet declares that
"the training of domestic nurses is at
the present day strictly comparable
with that of the monthly nurse or
CAMP of generation ago-that Is to
say, traditions, prejudices and ignorant
practices are perpetuated in unfailing
sequence from nurse to nurse and con-
stitute a closed ring of resistance
through which it is almost impossible
to break"

Attack on Socialism Results in Fatal
Fight in Chicago Saloon.

CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-A political
quarrel beginning with an argument
on the coal strike and ending in an
attack upon socialism, ended last
night in the death of one man and the
injury OF two others. The fight, which
took place in the saloon of James Wal
lace, 3l3 Fulton street, was participat-
ed in by five men.
The dead:
CHARLES WULFF q years old.
The injured:
George Bowes, bartender; cut on
head, neck and body.
David Schultz, stabbed twice in the
right leg and once in left side.
The other two men who participated
in the fight were Frank Brown, who
escaped, and Jonn Fitzgibhons, who is
held as a witness.
During the discussion some one made
an uncomplimentary remark about
socialists. Doves, who is So
cialist, was offended. Some one
hurled an empty bottle and that was
the signal for a general fight, in
which Wuff and Schultze were stabbed
by Bowes, who was cut himself, and
who claims self-defense. Wulff died
from his wounds shortly afterward.

Pratt DESTROYS Money.

No man in Washington has a call

of A. s. Pratt. He can be seen
vending his way slowly toward the
treasury department building each
afternoOa about | O'clock. He is
getting old now and walks with
slowness and deiibe ration which did
not characterize him when he first
started in his odd line. He is the
agent in Washington of no less than
2500 national banks. There are only
1890 of them in the county. 1t is
his duty 10 visit the department
each day in behalf of the banks and
count the money which has been
sent in and is about 10 be destroyed
-"macerated," they cali it at the
department. For an hour or more
he e0nnts over the different bills
and makes a record of what banks
they belong to. When all have been
counted he accompanies the guards
with the long, brown boxes into the
basement, and AS the contents of
each box are emptied into the swift
ly revolving watts, with their keen
edged knives, it is held up for his
inspection, so that he NAV see that
all of the bills have been dumped in.
That is all he does for living. His
fees range from So TO $25 per annum

income that has gradually made him

In Different Places, but Owing to Rock
BalIastcd Roadbed, No Serious
Washouts Occur.

The hardest rain that has fall
en- in this section for several
years fell Saturday night, Sun
day and Sunday night. 1t was a
steady downpour with no inter
mission. From the foot of Kel-
ly's hill to Nortonville the water
< was up to the rails on the L. &
N. and in several places covered
the track completely. Drift
wood and logs were jammed.
against the various trestles and
the water on both sides of the
track in Warrington bottom ex-
tended as far as the eye could
reach.

morning the people of Manning

surrounded by water, pigs and
calves had sought safety in the
porches and mules and horses
were standing on piles of lumber
and driftwood. Men, women
and children We're cooped up in
the houses unable to get coal or
wood to cook the morning meal
and only those who were so for
tunate as to have a supply in the
house breakfasted last Monday
