GERMS
FOUND IN MILK

pected really have the disease. In
the meantime we are taking every
precaution to prevent a spread of the
disease"
DR.. Wilbur, health officer of the uni
versity, wnen asked as to the cause
of the sudden epidemic of typhoid,
said:
Il am able to trace every case on
the campus to the use Of infected
milk. The Phi Delta Theta house,
the Zeta Psi house, and the Johnson
residence were the only places on
the campus where milk from the sus-
pected dairy was used, and in these
three places are a majority of the
cases. The five cases among the stu
rents in Encina hall also have been
traced to the same source. The
students did not eat at the inn, where
pure milk is served, but took their
meals unfortunately at the res
taurants in Palo Alto. The water on
the campus has been tested and pro-
nounced pure. Every resident on the
campus uses the same water, yet the
fever is found only in the three houses
that used the infected milk.
1T seems reasonable to attribute
the disease to this milk, sold by one
man only to the people who have the
disease. We have a thoroughly
good sewer system at the university,
and it is nonsense to attribute the
disease to poor sewerage. It was the
milk, and the milk alone, that brought
the disease. In Palo Alto the situa-
ton is much the same as on the cam
pus-the people who used the milk
from that dairy are the people who.
have been seized with typhoid"
The fever situation among the pub.
lie school children in Palo Alto has.
taken a serious aspect. In both the
High school and the grammar schools
the attendance has fallen off one
third. While the fever has not TAX
en- hold Of all those who have drop
ped out from school, many were re.
fused the privileges of the schools on
account of fever being in their homes.
In the high school two teachers have.
contracted the disease. In the gram.
mar school n teacher has been af-
ficted and another has the symptoms.
The demand on the doctors in Palo,
Alto and at the university has been
extraordinary.

BONES OF LEG
Were Broken But Ault Walked About
Not Knowing 1t

Marion, o., April 29.-Herman Anlt-
a building contractor of this city, went
into the Office of a local physician yes
terday with an apparently badly
sprained ankle. He said that he had
been attempting some fancy riding on
his bicycle that evening and ran into
the curbing, breaking the front wheel
and throwing him. He paid no more
attention to the injury until he put
the machine away Sunday morning,
when he slipped again, injuring the
same leg. The physician made an X
ray examination and found that the
bones of his leg were broken and had
been since Saturday. Ault had been
walking about ignorant of the extent
of the injury.

MILLIONS JOINED BY
MATRIMONIAL LOCK

lock and key in a great fire and lock
proof safe. The declaration will lev.
er be exhibited again at any of the
great international fairs.
This decision was reached today as
the result Of an examination of the
document by a committee Of the
American Academy Of Sciences now
in session in this city, who acted at
the instance of Secretary Hay, whose
attention has been called to the sad
state of the famous document by An
drew Allen, librarian of the state de-
partment. Most of the text Of the
declaration is still legible, but only
one or two of the signatures can be
made out. There is only a trace of
the autograph of John Hancock, the
first to sign.
The committee, equipped with pow
erful glasses, made a careful examina-
ton of the declaration. 1t was found
that the ink used was not of the first
quality. The fact that the engrosser,
now unknown to history, used a sharp
pen and bore steadily upon it account
ed, in a measure, for the better pres
ervation of the text as compared with
the signatures.
The greatest damage sustained,
however, was in 1920, when a copy
was taken by the crude ~letter.press
process. This was done in order to
secure a facsimile for the surviving
signers, one of whom was Thomas
Jefferson, and their families. The
committee recommended that the
declaration be shut in an alright
and light tight case and kept from ex.
hibition.
Today the document was photo
graphed and then locked up. The
committee has recommended that at
certain long intervals of time it be
taken from its case and rephotograph-
ed, the purpose being to measure, as
nearly as can be, the result of the
protective stems.

PITTssURe's GREAT SCHOOL.
Mr.. Carnegie, MIR. Schwab and Others
to Build II.

to Build It.
Pittsburg, Pa, April 29.-Pittsburg
is to have one of the greatest institu-
lions of learning in the world if the
plans of Prof. John A. Brashear, act
ing chancellor of the Western Uni
versity of Pennsylvania: Andrew Car
negie and Charles NJ. Schwab are car
ried out. 1t is announced that a great
institution, in close proximity to the
Carnegie institute, which has already
cost $1,000,0 900 and for which Mr.. Car
negie has set aside 100000 for ex
tensions and the proposed polytechni-
cal school, the buildings of which
alone will cost 81, 900, 900, and upon
which Mr.. Carnegie is willing to
spend any amount necessary, would
soon be built. 1t will be an evolution
of the Western university and will be
known as the University of Pittsburg.
The university is now endowed with
$500, 900, which Prof. Brashear hopes
will be increased to 81, 500, 900, while
buildings to cost an enormous sum
will be erected. Mr.. Brashear said last
night that Mr.. Carnegie, Mr.. Schwab
and James Gayley, all of the United
States Steel corporation, had offered
to become liberal subscribers, and
other Pittsburg millionaires are ex-
pected to donate freely. 1t is expect
ed that the new university will be
ready for occupancy at the time of
the completion of the new technology
cal school and that it will be located
nea by. The new university build
ings, the school and the remodel
ed Carnegie institute will, it is expect
ed, make the finest collection of edu-
c%ational institutions in the world.

RUSSIA IRRITATED.
BY British Opposition to Its Plans Of
Expansion.

st. Petersburg, April 25 via London,
April 29.-Russian opinion is in
tensely irritated by England's patent
policy of preparation to resist the ex-
pansion of the cars empire. 1t is
learned that this feeling is fully
shared in official quarters, where 1t
has become especially acute as the re-
suit of the attitude of the Balfour cab
met with regard to the Bagdad rail-
way. Englands' first deep offense
against Russian susceptibilities was
the recent conclusion Of a war alli-
ance with Japan, plainly aimed at
Russian ambitions in China. This was
followed Immediately afterward by
extraordinary measures on the part
of Great britain to erect barriers
against Russia's southwark march
through Persia .
Blocks Baedad Railway.
Now the third distinct Of
tense of the same kind-England's
undisguised attempt either to pre-
vent the construction of the Bagdad
railway or so to hedge the enterprise
about that. Russian participation will
be rendered impossible. In this man.
ner the British ministry is all the
time crying Halt" to Russia in the
far east, the middle east and the near
east. The Muscovite naturally con-
siders this policy an %audacious project
to stereotype his empire within its
present limits.
That the British really believe such
an undertaking feasible is regarded in
st. Petersburg as an established fact
and the government is planning naval
and military arrangements on an I'M
precedented scale. This policy is an
official secret Theoretically sealed, but
it is easy to surmise that its attitude
is not one of acquiescence. The least
apprehensive observers, therefore,
cannot pretend that the relations Of
the two countries are on a safe foot.
