Word has been received of the
drowning of the youngest child of
Charles Thexl in dam at Ottar. a
small stock town near Miles City. The
child was playing on the edge of the
water when it fell in. The mother
witnessed the accident and fearlessly
plunged into the water. and searched
frantically for her babe, but the lit
tie one failed to come to the surface.
Five hours later the body was recov-
cred. 1t appears when the child went
down it caught fast among some snags
and was held fast.

SLACK LIME WORTHLESS
AS A DISINFECTANT.

Health officer Drummer Did Not Re-
fer to Quick Lime at Municipal
League.
That Slack lime is worthless as dis
infectant was contended by Health Of
ficer w. F. Drummer in his paper read
during the sessions of the League of
Georgia municipalities, held in Macon
last week. but the Savannah physician
has never argued that quick lime is not
a good thing.
This part of DR.. Burners paper
caused something of stir, as will be
seen by the following press dispatch
sent out from Macon:
One of the most interesting state
ments made at the convention was that
of Dr. w. f. Drummer, the noted expert,
from Savannah. In discussing disin-
fectants, DR.. Drummer declared most
positively that every dollar spent on
lime for disinfecting purposes is vast
ed-that SO much white sand would do
equally as much good. His idea seemed
TO be that rs cents spent for formalde-
hyde or some similar disinfectant would
De worth more than forty car loads of
lime. He said that fresh air and plenty
OF sunlight would beat all other disin-
tectants, but almost anything is better
than lime. Lime locks nice and clean,
and leaves the premises white" he said,
but that is all it is fit for"
There were those present who could
not appreciate the force of DR.. Brun-
her's declaration. They had been rails
ed to believe that lime is the most pow
ertul of disinfectants, and that it would
not only consume odors, but that it
would eat and DESTROY the flesh and
Done, and would dissolve animal bones
Ior fertilizer purposes more quickly
IMAM any other acids. But DR.. Brun-
hers opinion is most important, be-
cause he mas made a life study of s&ch
SUBJECTS and the government has ac-
cepted his views in matters pertaining
TO yellow fever and other infections and
contagious in the island countries.
coupling all of these facts, he created
sensation when he ridiculed the idea
Oh using lime to disinfect premises.
lie also said that disinfectants should
never be used around plumbing. He
salq 1t would be far better for hotels
ana other buildings in which such rem
eules Tor bad odors are used If plumbers
we're made to perfect their work. Bad
plumbing, he said, makes bad odors,
anu ulSlnfectantS are not the remedy.

EVOLUTION OF
NATIONAL GAME.

An interesting example of the evo-
luton being experienced in the play
ing of the national game is the fol-
lowing taken from the Brooklyn Eagle
regarding Saturdays game:
Time was when the catching of a
foul tip by the backstop counted much
to his credit. Nowadays it sometimes
proves costly. Jacklitch caught foul
ZIP OFF Leach in the second just as
beaumont and Clark pulled off a dou-
bic steal, and it went. Had the catcher
dropped the ball it would have been a
strike, anyway, the runners would have
had to return and run saved. Thus.
the mere catching of a foul tip, unnec-
essary and unimportant in its way,
gave the Pirates the winning run"

In a desperate scuffie with a negro
prisoner at 1925 o'clock yesterday morn
ing. Mounted Patrolman Harper broke
his club over the mans head. bit his
finger severely and fired five shots at
him, but the negro escaped.
The uniformed man was bruised
about the throat and was scratched on
the face. He reported sick last night
and did not take UP his division. The
officer is certain that he shot his man.
but no trace of the wounded negro has
been found. The fight was a desperate
one and the patrolman had a close call
While fighting for the possession of
the officers revolver one of the shots
were fired. Both men were on the
ground, and how the bullet failed to
hit one or the other is almost miracu-
lous. The negro, a powerful fellow
was fighting like death for the possess
sion of the patrolman's pistol, and
Harper had a hard time holding his
own. But for the fact that he used his
teeth his prisoner would probably have
secured the revolver.
While on the ground the negro
caught hold of the officers cheek and
seemed to be trying to scratch his
eye out. One of the black mans fin
gers got into Harper's mouth and the
patrolman closed down. The negro suf-
fered intense pain, and throwing the
officer over, released his hold on the
pistol and fled. Harper jumped to
his feet and fired the four remaining
shots at the man, but without being
able to stop him.
The firing of the shots attracted the
attention of Mounted Patrolmen Sem
ken and Lange and both hurried to
the Ogeechee road and Thirty-sixth
street, where the fight occurred. A

and Harper struck him a stiff blow
over the head with his club. The stick
snapped off at the handle, the negro

REACHES FLEET OF FOOT.
Compared with Their Size They Are
Faster Than Any other Insect.

Faster Than Any other Insect.
From the New Orleans Nmes-Demo-
crat.
THE cockroach is one of the fleet
est members I know anything about, ("
said man who takes a deep interest
in insect life, land 1 doubt If there
is anything in the insect world that
can move quite so rapidly. I do not
know how long they can run, but
for short distances l think the cock
roach can come within the betting,
if 1 may use a race horse express
sion. A few evenings ago l amused
myself by testing the speed of the
cockroach. Ny desk is the dwelling
place for a whole family of these in
sects. I watched for a chance to
get one in a favorable position for
making the test.
After several experiments which
gave different results, / finally got
what 1 believed to be a good test of
the cockroach's speed. L alarmed the
insect by a quick surprise rap on the
desk, and he cleared the width of
the desk, which is a little over three
feet, in a fraction more than a sec
ond. 1 concluded that yard a sec
oHu WdS d SOOu SSlllIldle OI the COCK
roach's speed. That is not bad going
either. You must remember, too, that
these insects do not fly. They run
on legs, though in the test I made
it was almost impossible for me to
say whether the roach was flying or
running. 1t simply shot across the
desk like a flash.
When you come to think, three feet
a second is not bad speed for an in
sect. 1t is about $50 feet per minute
and in an hours time at this rate Of
speed a cockroach will run about TO-
800 feet, or approximately two miles.
l suppose the durability of the cock
roach is limited, but while he goes he
goes like a fash. Flies are swift in
their movements. Fleas are noted for
their quickness, and other insects have
been mentioned because of a certain
feetness characterizing their move
ments. But in a running race be-
tween insects 1 will take my chances
with the cockroach, for 1 think he is
just about as fleet of foot as anything
you can find. At any rate, 1 will back
him whenever he is entered If the
distance is not too long,
