PRESIDENT TAKES ACTION.
lean Jews Regarding Recent Out
RACES to Russian Government.

Washington, June 26.-The presi-
dent has decided to transmit to the
Russian government the petition pre-
scented to him by the executive coun-
ell of the B'Nai Birth regarding treat
ment of Jews in Russia.
This action has been taken after ma
ture consideration. At first it was de-
cided that the petition should not be
presented, because it might be resent
ed by the government of Russia and
lead to a response that will cause a
break in the relations of the two
countries. However, the first conclu-
sion has been reconsidered and by di-
rection of the president the petition
will now go forward. What the result
will be is predetermined.
The petition which will be trans
mitted to the Russian government is
the one which the executive council
of the B'nai Birth handed to the
president as a tentative document to
be signed by leading citizens of the
United States outside of federal Of
fee holders. 1t is expected that it
will take about two weeks to secure
these signatures, work along that line
already being in progress.

George F. White, negro just out of
the workhouse, who was accused of
having feloniously assaulted and
stabbed to death Miss Helen S. Bish-
OPP, the 17-year-old daughter of Rev.
DR.. E. A. Bishop
The mob went to the jail, a mile
away, broke down the doors and
marched the victim to a stake that
had been prepared, where he suf-
fered the penalty of his crime. When
the negro was dead the crowd i'm
mediately dispersed.
Wilmington, Del, June ga race
riot growing out of the lynching OF
George White began here shortly
after nine o'clock Thursday. About
400 negroes participated and hun
dreds of shots were fired. 1t is now
probable that the national guard
will be called out to preserve order.
About 200 shots were fired between
whites and blacks, resulting in two
officers and negro being wounded

evening William Cramer, a negro,
was shot in the stomach by white
man. He will probably die.

Must Have Our Butter,

The state dairy and food department
has received information that large
Eastern butter dealers are negotiating
for the butter of Minnesota creameries.
A representative of Brooklyn firm in
visit at the Office of the department in
ST, Paul, stated that his firm has come
in competition with Minnesota butter
in the Eastern markets and has decid-
ed that to keep its trade it must handle
the Minnesota product.
The firm authorized the representa-
tive TO pay at least l cent pound more
than the market price for all the butter
he could buy. The representative left
on a visit to the principal creameries of
the state with the intention of buying
up the visible supply. The agent
said that the firm had never before
bought any butter in the West, but
that it intended hereafter to make
Minnesota it's principal market.
B. D. White, creamery expert of the
state dairy and food commission, at
tributes Minnesota's reputation for
producing the best butter in the coun-
try to the excellence of Minnesota but
makers, to the cooperative creamery
system, and to the fact that most pa
irons carry milk fresh to the creamery
and let the buttermrkers skim and RI
pen it, instead of skimming and ripen-
ing at home.

News Notes.

The village council of Perham has
just ordered 1000 feet of new cement
sidewalks on two of the business
streets. The walks will be ten feet
wide.
The state board of control awarded
the contract for supplying the state
institutions with coal during the en-
suing year to the Northwestern Fuel
company of ST. Paul. The institu-
tons will require from 10000 to So
900 tons during the year.
John P. Gardner of ST. Paul was
appointed inspector in the labor de-
partment yesterday.
After nursing the belief for many
years that it held undisputed title to
Minnesota mining property worth
many millions, the Clark Iron com
pany has just made settlement with

Authorizations.

The state dairy and food department
has learned that some of the preserved
''straw berries" and 'raspberries" sold
in Minnesota are mixtures of timothy
seed, broom corn, glucose and sugar.
The department has prosecuted since
Jan. l sixteen dealers for selling adul-
terated preserves, jams and jellies
Broom corn when put through a
steam process, it is said, resembles
raspberry seeds and when mixed with
glucose, acids and sugar makes fair
imitation of preserved raspberries. :"
Timothy seed, while more expensive
than broom corn, is mixed in similar
manner with glucose, acids and sugar
to make preserved Strawberries.
Prosecutions of this kind are made on
law passed in 1901 providing that
adulterated jams and preserves shall
be lableed mixed and adulterated. !"
Some manufacturers, finding that they
cannot sell the goods with the label,
have endeavored to pass them off as
pure.
The department in the last few days
has collected $1O5 fines as follows:
Adulterated lard, $25; adulterated spi-
ces, $50; adulterated baking powder,

to produce antitoxin, the disease win
soon lose its terrors.
Upon the death of his grandson
from cholera infantum Rockefeller
donated 100000 to be used toward
finding cure for that disease. Two
students discovered and isolated a
germ, and DR.. Simon Flexner manu-
featured therefrom an antitoxin
which counteracts it. 1t will come
into use as soon as the exact amount
for dose shall be determined. His
success has been the means of ele-
waiting DIR. FleXner to the position Of
director in the $15.0o0,000 Rookie
Teller Institute for Medical Research.
Prof. Behring, of Vienna, is also con-
spicuously gaining the attention Of
the medical fraternity, first because
of his discovery of the diphtheria
antitoxin, which is yearly saving the
lives of thousands, and more recent
ly by his experiments with tubercu-
losis. The death rate from diphtheria
has been reduced to but to 6
per cent. from so to 90, by means
of antitoxin. Dr.. Behring hopes to
reduce that of tuberculosis proper
tionately.

thus REINFORCED by a poison to the
germs whose demise rids them of the
| disease which was preying upon their
| tissues.
While some antitoxins have been
obtained with comparative ease, ex-
periments with typhoid germs have
proven very unsatisfactory. In 1884
Koch discovered the bacilli of ty-
phoid. They are rod-like and thick
with the ends rounded, and some
times joined in filaments. They pos
sess little hair-lil1e projections called
| fiagella and move very rapidly. They
are found in water, milk and meats
and gain entrance into the system by
various methods. Many experiments
have been made to secure an antitox-
in from bouillon, but to no great pur-
pose. 1t has been nearly impossible
to obtain the Juice between the
cells of typhoid bacteria without de-
stroying the chemical action of
germs themselves. No really salts

until, recently, DR.. Allan McFayden,
of the Jeaner institute of preventive
medicine, one of the leading bac-
teriologists of Europe, after much
research, has discovered a method of
manufacturing antitoxin for typhoid
which, it is generally believed, will
soon be universally adopted. The
microscopical cells of the typhoid
bacilli are SO small and pliable or
elastic that no mechanical agent
could destroy them. Freezing does
not injure them.
1t occurred to DR.. McFayden to
freeze the cells by means of liquid
air until very brittle, then to crush
thousands of them together in NOR

step has proved great success. The

PrOpagnted - Important Part
Played by Horses and
Guinea Pigs.
Especial New York Letter.1


This is essentially the age of an
titoXins, extreme cases of the
hair of the dog" curing the
bite. New discoveries are constantly
being made, both of the specific
germs causing certain diseases and
methods of utilizing them for their
own destruction. 1t is well known
that if a person were shut up in
room for an extended length of time
where no fresh air was allowed
to enter death would ensue be-
cause the air in the room, breathed
over and over, would become charged
with poisons given out by the body,
and there would soon be mo fresh air
to- feed upon. In the case of dis
ease germ much the same condition
prevails. 1t must have fresh material
to feed upon, as the juices it throws
off are a certain poison to itself.
Hence, if to the blood of a person
containing germs of a disease, suffi-
cient quantity of the etfete material
furnished by the germ itself be
added, the small pest dies because it
has no fresh food, free from it's own
specific poison, upon which to feed.
In the case of many of our most COM
mon and virulent diseases the bacil-
lus has been isolated and for their
: treatment an antitoXin has been Sc
cured.
Nearly everyone is aware that the
antitoxins in general use are OBJ
tanned from horses, and the methods
of securing them are being constant
ly improved upon. Of course the first
thing to be considered is the isola-
ton of the offending microbe from
the thousands of different variety
which surround it. This presupposes
the fact that the wicked one is so
well known as to be recognizable;
that his portrait hangs in the germ
rogues' gallery.
After the bacteria are removed
from sufferer, they are more care
fully cultivated than most plants, the
usual medium being bouillon prepared
