Typhoid at Nanticoke

The outbreak of typhoid fever at
Nanticoke has caused some little
alarm at Danvlle whose drinking
water is obtained from the very
river into which Nanticoke dis
charges its sewage. Physicians,
however, see very little cause for
fear, unless all sanitary advice is
disregarded in the up-the-river
town by those who have care of the
fever patients. 1t might be added,
however, that the physicians are a
unit as to the necessity of boiling
water used for drinking purposes
just now as precautiou against
disease from general sources.

"pot LlttdIe cherman Band. .

Most Of us have known the little
German band, and some of us may
have known it too well and thrown
hot language at it from our windows.
1t has many merits, but also a tend
ency to be hoarse and overload and
gliven by discordt 1t is not what it
was nor as common as it was. Yet
there are those who love it. For our
part we can never hear those wander
ing minstrels without a certain emo
ton and willingness to part with
our small change. Well, little Ger
man band, probably hungry and GER
tainly thirsty, was pumping its might
est wind and pouring out its soul in
Bloomsbury, thick with lodgings, Lon
don. Vain was that blowing, pouring,
piping, putting. The Watch on the
Rhine" and various other German dit
ties, patriotic or sentimental, filled
the air in vain. Not head at win
dow. Not penny in the hat. Then
the leader had an inspiration. He
ordered the "Star-Spangled Banner
on top Of that. Bang! Up went the
blinds. Open flew the doors. Down
clashed the coppers. Soon the little
band was rich beyond its simple
dreams of comfort for the day. 1t
shouldered it's instruments, and went
around the corner. Such is the power
of the "piety of the native place" and
so sweet are the tunes of ones coun-
try in a foreign land.-Everybody s

A New hlnd of Policy.

New York.--Just before the legisla-
tive insurance Investigating commit
tee adjourned Nov, q, Charles +.
Hughes, counsel for the committee,
produced a policy written by the Mutual
Reserve life insurance company upon
the life of an unnamed man, which
policy stipulated upon the first page
that the insured pay fixed and stated
premiums Subject to other benefits
and requirements elsewhere stated"
On page 2 of the policy he read
clause that the executive committee
of the company could require the hold
er of the policy to pay any multiple Of
the amount of the premium stated on
the first page which the committee saw
fit.
George d. Eldredge, vice-president
and actuary of the company, to whom
Mr. Hughes read the policy, said that
the number of such policies issued was
small
Previously Edmund D. Randolph,
treasurer of the New York life insur-
ance company, had said that it was
true that he removed 100000 worth of
New York city stock from the vaults
of the company and put check of the
Central national bank for that amount
in the place of it on Jan. 5, 1901.
Mr.. Randolph understood that the
bank wanted the stock for clients, one
of which was the Merchants trust
company. He promised to give the
committe later the names of any Of
ficers of the New York life insurance
company then in the Merchants trust
company.

Child Lost in Storm.

Burlington, Vt-Pretty and bri, hit
Garlic Chamberlain, II years old, the
daughter of Mrs. Anna V. Chamber
lain, caused the greatest excitement
in this city for some time Tuesday.
Instead of going to school in the
morning she wandered away, and was
not found until late in the evening
in South Burlington, four miles from
her home. A binding snow storm
had been raging nearly all day and
the child had been exposed to it in the
woods in South Burlington.
, When found by Anna Currier, the
9-year-old daughter of w. H. Currier,
the Chamberlain child was in a criti-
cal condition. She was taken to her
home in this city and physicians are
attending her.
Mrs. Chamberlain savs her daugh-
ter is in a serious condition and re-
peatedly asks to be protected from her
teacher.
The child attends the Adams street
school, and Monday afternoon, it is
said, she was punished by her teach
er. When she was sent home note
was given her from the teacher to her
mother The child did not deliver the
note, and was afraid to go to school
the next morning in consequence.

To Look for Back Taxes.

New York.-President O'Donnell of
the department of taxes and assess
ments read with official interest the
testimony of Cashier Banta Of the
New York life insurance company, re-
garding the $7OO, 900 of nontaxable city
bonds lent by that company to the
Central national bank about Jan. J.,
1901, to- enable some one to reduce
the tax assessment by that sum.
eve shall ask the corporation coun-
SELL" said Mr.. O'Donnell to a reporter,
"to give an opinion as to whether or
not this department can bring suit
against the bank for recovery of the
taxes on that 100000, which were
avaded by this fraudulent transfer. It
looks as If those bonds were made to
carry double by reducing not only the
banks assessment, but the insurance
company's too"
