NEW YORK, Aug 15.-The tide of
the demand for stocks was reduced to-
day aid while the market showed mix
ed points of strength they were not so
predominant us for some time past.
The desire to take profits evidently
had It's part In the selling and the
failure,'o of the efforts to get the mar
ket t. smovc upwards prompted an at
tack III the latter part Of the day by
the bears which showed some signs Of
concern and organization. The attack
had little. success i'll dislOdgng any
stock and u rather husty movement to
cover by shorts followed
The weekly crop bulletin of the
weather bureau was regarded us giving
evident encouragement to the high
hopes now entertained for the great
yields for the grain crops.
The corn carrying railroads were
relatively firm. except for the realizing
sales In Missouri Pacific and Atchison.
New York Central was the most iuflu-
entail stock to make Roadway against
pressure and speculative favor turned
for the most part to the :ndustriuls ard
specintics ugain. OF the high priced
stocks Great Northern, preferred. coll

tanned by protested belief In an early

"Whereever You ind a death from
typhoid, some one ought to be hanged
for MURDER" distinguished sanitarian
has said. This is violent statement t.,
but there is forcible proof OF it's justice in
an article by Samuel Hopkins Adams,
in the June McClure's.
Typhoid: An Unnecessary Evir' is
the whole interesting story Of the disease
which costs AM rican communities 60
many millions OF dollars and so many
thousands OF lives The results OF far.
reaching and searching investigat ton
show conclusvelv the criminal foolish
ness OF permitting it any in community.
"The average city of 100000 inhabi-
tants wastes, perhaps a half a million
dollars year on the luxury OF having
typhoid, and prob ably hundred thous-
and dollars more in effort to avoid it.
That amount of.money. properly spent,
would practically eradicate the disease.
We have seen it done in the principle
European cities; yet, with the unpro.
gressivenees in matters of public health
which so strangely contrasts with the
forwarding American spirit, Cur cities
have continued to poison themselves and
each other" The story OF the fight
against infection, tine triumphs OF scien-
titic methods and the ignorance and
neglect which turns the viscera OF COM
munities into a progression of bacilli
cultures, the whole problem is handled
succinctly and authoritatively, yet with
all the interest OF a story.

RED MEMS CARNIVAL,
Committees Are BuSy..:,WiIl Decorate
CITY. A Great Show Comma.

The headquarters of thessRed Mems
carnival committee present busy ap.
pearance now. The committee has
bought over 1000 Yards of bunting for
the purpose Of decorating the streets
during carnival week. and if the business
men give them the support they should,
they will have the city decorated as it
never has been before.
The committee desires to state to the
merchants that they will take contracts
to decorate store fronts with the Red
Men colors. They have engaged prac.
teal, up to-date decorator for that pur.
pose, and the work is under the personal
supervision OF Frank 3. Reeder, chair.
! man OF the decorating committee, and
| {. '. 10y, chairman OF the general COM
mittee.
We all know that the carnival OF last
year was success and much credit is
due the Red Men, but from present indi-
cations the week of June 18th next, will
far surpass anything that Aberdeen has
ever seen.
In a letter from Nat Reiss, proprietor
OF the Nat Reiss Southern Carnival Co..
to the local committee, he makes the
| following statement
"While several OF the best shows we
carried with US last year are still with
us, they have been greatly improved,
notably the big stadium, our feature
show. This show presents several sensa-
tional surprises that amaze the visitor.
Then there are six other shows that are
entirely new to the Northwest. The
supreme feature attraction of all, how.
ever, is Nine. Marian Liljen's high fire.
dive, the only act Of its kind in the
world. Completely .enveloped in flame,
the lady dives from dizzy height into a
tank of water five feet deep, and this is
one OF our free attractions to be seen
without any cost whatever. We have a
splendid military band, Ferris wheel,
camels, novelty boots and multiplicity
Of amusing diversions which 90 to make
up great big, up.to-date carnival. You
may assure your people for me that last
seasons carnival will be more than
equalled in merit, morality and magni-
tude. Yours for fun,

THE GARFIELD REPORT,

Some OF Mr.. Gartield's friends are de-
Tending his beef trust report. They
point out that that report showed that
profits on the capita'izatio ran as high
as eighteen to twenty per cent in the
case OF one company. They also say
that Mr.. Gartieid'- critics "seized upon
the > per cent and ninety-nine cents per
head figures I. one and derided the suy.
gestion that tn packers were making so
little money. The fact that the 2 per
cent profit is profit on gross sales, not
on capital invested, and that it means
that the packers are making immense
sums annually, was apparently lost
sight Of"
Nj. Gartield's friends now point out
that ''the report says that while the
profit on dressed beef was ninety.nine
cents head, the profits on the by
products brought the profit per head to
$50; and when it is considered that the
packers handle millions Of cattle each
year the volume of their earnings is ap.
parent"
