DEATH RATE0F MANILA
SHOWS GREAT DECREASE
Result Of Sanitary Reforms Under
American Regime.

The monthly report of the board OF
health for the Philippine islands for
the month of March has just been re-
ceived at army headquarters, and con-
tains some interesting data as to the
sanitary reform instituted and carried
out under the American regime.
While the, Average death rate of the
city of Manila for the first three
months of 1900 was 1880. it has been
constantly reduced by American san
itary measures until now for the first
three months of this year, the average
is 22.17. In january, 1900, the death
rate of Manila was 50.65 and. in March
1908. it was 21.O1.
During the first quarter of the pres
ent year the death rate has been re-
duced by 81 per cent over the rate ex-
listing for. the same period twelve
months previously. This latest i'm
provement has been accomplished, in
spite of the fact that Asiatic cholera
and the bubonice plague had both pre-
viously gained foothold in the ISL
ands and that the existence of a large
unvaccinated population in the prov
inceS meant constant Introduction of
smallpox into the city.
The sanitary results attained in Ma
Mia have been accomplished in the face
of many natural disadvantages result
ing from the unsalubrious site of the
CITY,
The board of health has found it i'm
possible to turn previously existing
methods and conditions to sanitary ad-
vantage. and has found it necessary to
develop entirely new plans of improve
ment and at the same time to combat
the results of conditions inherited from
the Spanish administration.
The present death rate of Manila is
lower than that of many cities not re-
garded as unhealthful, situated in the
United States and elsewhere.

State Auditor Iverson Says EquaIiza-
ton Board Plans to Cheat State.

State Auditor Iverson is deeply exer-
cised in mind by the manner in which
the Ramsey county board of equaliza-
ton is performing it's duties, and, in a
lengthy statement, issued yesterday, he
comes to the rescue of County Auditor
Krahmer and condemns the sentiment
expressed by other members of the
board who suggested that the valua-
ton should be lowered and the tax rate
raised in order that the county get
more and the state less.
Mr. Iverson says the Chicago plan, .
as he terms it, is simply a scheme to
cheat the state out of the taxes due it.,
and the persons who proposed such a
plan are condemned by him.

The BIondeIIs Cominu.

The Blondels, who are welll,noWn

Monday evening Nov. 3, in the great
pantomimic spectacle, Through the
Center of the Earth"
The company appeared in Ha2elton,
ia. recently and the Plain Speaker
said: Through the Centre of the
Earth" which was given at the Grand
Opera House last night. was the best
and funniest show seen here this season.
SO pleased was the management of the
local theatre with the production that
n return date was arranged for next
Monday night, when a record-breaking
house ought to be on hand to see the
piece. The DeFaye sisters were one of
the features. They play all kinds of in
struments and are a whole show in
themselves. Blondell, the funny man,
is the greatest laugh producer that has
been in Hazelton for some years. His
antics were of such decidedly anus
ing character that he kept his auditors
in continual hilarity''

The County Fair.

Mr.. Neil Burgess production of the
New County Fair at the Opera House
next Tuesday night will contain many
pleasant surprises for those who have
seen this remarkable play before, and
thrills and laughter galore for all who
witness it then for the first time. The
production has been improved, embel-
lished and mOdernized. The new husk-
ing bee scene, introducing the famous
trio of comedians Messers. Dixon, Bow
erS & Dixon, is one of the greatest bits
of the present theatrical season. These
gentlemen also appear in the old barn
and fair ground scenes, and anyone
familiar with the abilities Of this great
trio, can easily imagine the fast and
furious fun that they can produce with
such surroundings. The race scene in
the last act is now produced in an en-
tirely new and startling manner. The
old cumbersome racing machines have
been replaced by some recently paten-
ted inocution by VIM. Burgess, and by
4 combination of electrical devises,
moving pictures and living characters,
an effect is produced that carries the
audience to the highest pitch of excite
ment and enthusiasm. This scene must
be seen to be appreciated as there has
bean nothing like it before on any
stage. The company is larger than be-
fore, more people are introduced into
every scene than heretofore, and some
of the strongest chara cters of the play
have been added in the present produce
ton. No advance in prices.

Hyomei the Latest Scientific Discovery
for the Cure of Catarrh.

The discovery of Hyomei has
wrought a wonderful change in the
treatment Of catarrh.

this disease were nauseating drugs and
worthless tonics. In some instances
they benefited, but the improvement
was not lasting.
