TYPHOID FEVER.
Milk and Water Not Important Fac
tors In Typhoid Infection.

Milk and Water Not Important Fac
tors in Typhoid Infection,
The world will be slow to give
up the theory that typhoid feyeris
a germ disease, disseminated
through the agency of infected
water or milk, even at the bidding
of so eminent a bacteriologist as
DR.. Koch, who has been refuting
the commonly accepted view be.
fore the military school at Berlin,
says the Providence journal. He
did not deny that the typhoid fe-
yer germ can live in water or milk,
and that when it is taken into the
stomach with these fluids ii
causes illness. But he declared
that it does not live long outside
the human body, and that such
agencies as milk and water are
not important factors in dissem-
lnatlon. From special lnyestIga-
tons made at Treves, where there
was an epidemic of typhoid, he
has concluded that the personal
contact of typhoid patients with
well persons is the chief cause OF
the infection, and that isolation
of the patient is the most effective
way of discriminating it. Further
evidence on this point may prop
erly be asked. But, meanwhile,
it may well be advisable to add
more attention to the handling OF
pations to efforts of keeping pure
the water and milk supply.

SOME FAMOUS WOMEN.
Many Eotables of History Among
Fair Sex Were Stout.

Fair Sex Were Stout.
Queen Elizabeth and her sister,
Mary Tudor, were both tall and
stout. So was the great Russian
empress, Catherine, says an ex-
change. Both Empress Josephine
and her predecessor on the French
throne, Marie Antoinettc, became
stout as they grew old. Nine. de
Stael, the great wit of her time
has been called "pudgy." George
Sand, although she had Il beauti
full head, was unusually stout, and
George Eliot was unusually large.
All the women of the Bourbon
blood have a tendency to fairness.
The grandmother of Spain'syoung
king weighed 300 pounds a few
years ago, although she was then
very graceful. Queen Marguerite
dowager of Italy, tried to over.
come her stoutness, but after Sc
we're course of Alpine climbing
and vinegar drinking had to give
up the struggle.
Cleopatra, who by her fascina-
ton and beauty charmed so many
of the men of her time, was short
and stout.
Many of the women of the mid
die ages were also large. Among
them are Lucretia Borgia, some
times called the most wicked wom-
an in the world; Laura, whom Pc.
trach made famous in his poems
Marguerite of Angouleme, queen
of Navarro, and Marie de Medici,
wife of the French king, Henry Nv.

CATCHING RED FOXES.
Ingenious Method Pursued by an Old
Maine Trapper.

Maine Trapper.
There is no animal in the Maine
woods possessed with more cum
ming than the red fox. The slyness
Of these animals has passed into
a proverb, "sly as a fox being the
term often heard, says the Bangor
lMe.) Commercial.
There are many different ways
to catch Reynard, but there is one
old trapper in the forests of this
state who perhaps stands at the
head or the list in catching foxes.
He has a manner of catching these
animals which he calls his ''se-
cret," plan which he learned
when a boy in Vermont and has
successfully used for the last 20
years.
Fox skins or pelts bring a good
price. and from the beginning of
the cool weather in October
throughout the winter the hides
are in fine condition. Steel traps,
bait and many different things are
used by different trappers in
catching foxes, but his old trap
per's secret stands at the top.
His manner of procedure when
after the little red dogs is some
what as follows: In a part of the
woods which is known to be iii
habited by foxes, and they can be
found i'm nearly all sections of
Maine. this trapper, with a steel
tran. some cat meat, if it can be
procured. and some skunk musk,
proceeds to set his snares. Cat
meat makes the best bait, but
other meat, piece of beef, willdo.
Going up a brook. wading with
rubber boots SO that no scent will
be left. he makes a small drain Or
canal from the brook into which
the water will flow This little
canal is always dug out with Il
stick so that the hands do not
come i'm contact with the earth and
no smell of Il human being is left.
A small stick is then set upright
in the middle of the stream or lit
tie canal, the point being an inch
or so under the water and the bait
is put on that so that it looks as
though resting on the water As
this necessarily must be handled
a small amount of skunk musk is
put on it so that no scent is left
The steel trap is then sunk I'M
der water where the canal, or if il
is in the brook proper, is but a few
inches deep. On he plate of the
trap. where an animal has to step
to be caught. is but small sod
which lies half in and half out of
the water. as if il were a small is
land. This is but Il few inches
from the bait ON the stick.
The result is plainly seen. No
animal will wet lis feet if there is
dry land to step on, and Sir Rcy
nard, coming after the meat rest
ing so temptingly on the water,
steps on the little island or mound
10 gcl it and is lost.
A trap Of this kind is never
fastened down. as the animal will
tear itself loose cftentimes If Sc
curely held. a fair-siz stick is
attached by IA rope or chain 10 the
trap, and the fox cannot drag it
far, as it catches on all Of the
trees, bushes. or whatever is in
the way.

NATURALIZ4TION.

Washington, March 31.-The House
Committee on immigration Tuesday
considered the Gouldon bill, making
further restrictions in the issuance of
naturalization papers. The evils of
the present loose procedure regarding
naturalization were commented on by
Mr.. Goulden, who said that by reason
of the New York State laws requiring
all persons in the employ OF the State
or of a municipality thereof to be civ.
liens of the United States, the incen-
tive to purchase naturalization fraud
ulently was increased in that section.
Last year one Italian agency had. sold
four thousand such papers fraudulent
ly, and and another two thousand five
hundred. Fraudulent naturalization
was not confined to New York State,
he said, but the same conditions pre-
vailed in all sections of the country.
The committee took no action in the
matter.

STIR SPANGLED BANNER.

Washington, April Hereafter
The Star-Spangled Banner" will be
played ON board naval ships at both
morning and evening colors, in accord
ance with an order approved Wednes-
day by the Secretary of the Navy.
Heretofore "The Star-Spangled Ban
ner" has been played with the raising
of the flag in the morning and Hail
Columbia" with the lowering Of the
colors. Some confusion arose in the
navy, it is said, as to whether the
latter was national air, and the
matter was brought to the attention
of the department. Secretary Moody
in approving the order substituting
The Star-Spangled Banner" for
"Hsil Columbia" for evening colors,
did not pass on whether the latter is
national air, deeming that matter
for Congress to determine.

GRAND JUROR MIXUP.

Rutland, April t.-It has been dis,
covered by local attorneys that Peter
F. McMauus, who has just been ap-
pointed grand juror OF Rutland by
Mayor Jack S. Gardner, has no more
tight to prosecute cases in the city
court than has j. Walter Lyons. who
was appointed to the ocffie two years
ago under Mayor Temples first ad-
ministratiop, and the grand jurorship
is accordingly in q mixed up condi-
ton. Lyons was not re-appointed by
Mayor Temple last year, but merely
held over. the law providing that a
grand juror shall hold office until his
successor shall have been appointed
and qualified. When Mayor Gardner
appointed Mr.. McManus this year
there was nothing said in the appoint
ment regarding his being the successor
of Mr.. Lyons, amp as the la provides
that a city or ton can have one, or
more, grand jurors there is no reason
why Mr.. Lyons is not still in office.
This city has never had more than
one grand juror and there will be
much confusion when Mr.. Lyons at
tempts to continue the duties of the
ocffie as he will probably dio mas
much as the office ia a lucrative one
in Rutland at the present time. How
the matter can be disposed of is
much disputed question.

Burlington, April 4.-The annual

1t says that fragrant abuses exist
among rich taxpayers making the lists.
The assessors are not vigilant enough.
The city has an abundance of civic
pride but woeful lack of civic hon.
esty on the part of wealthy citizens.
1t suggests the reorganization of the
fire department and change in the
location of headquarters was recon-
mended. He wants public dock and

further that the Russians are falling
