summer of 1878, when the tow boat
John A, Porter made her memorable
rip with its fever stricken crew?
This question is on the lips Of every
river man, and all are anxiously watch
ne the progress being made by the
big tow boat j. b. Finley. which IS
aow on her way up the Ohio from
Cairo. When the Finley was at Mem

crew were ILL.,
Whether the sick members of her
crew have yellow jack Is not known,
rs the boat has made no landing since
she left Memphis. She is due to arrive
At Louisville on Thursday or Friday Of
his week The boat was not allowed
land at Cairo, and word was sent
ashore there that she had supplies
snough to carry her to Louisville. The
Finley is towing a big string Of emp
ties up the river to Pittsburg.
The first sickness in the crew was
reported when the boat was at Green
ville Miss. and since then the excited
inhabitants of the Southern towns
have regarded the big steamer with
any thing but friendly feelings, and

HEALTH BOARD TAKES NOTICE
Pollution Of Minnesota River Water
Condemned by Authorities.

BOuOtIOU OF MluuGSOt6 nIvGT vvdI6r
Condemned by Authorities.
The pollution of Minnesota rivers and
streams by sewage from cities, towns
and villages was the principal topic of
discussion at yesterdays annual meeting
of the state board of health, and it is
probable that the board will ask legisla-
tion granting additional authority for
regulating the evil. The meeting will
be continued today and the topics for
discussion include sewage disposal at
|several of the state institutions.
1t was stated by Dr. Bracken and
other members of the board that every
stream and river in the state is more or
less polluted and unsanitary because the
villages and towns along their banks
are not checked in discharging sewage
into the streams. 1t was the opinion of
the board that state legislation is the
only sure method of putting a stop to
present conditions.
Marshall o. Leighton, chief of the hy-
dro economic division. of the United
States geological survey, was present,
and in brief address to the board of
health and the board of control, which
was present for short while, he outlin-
ed the best methods to secure more san
itary rivers and streams.
Mr.. Leighton stated that the only
method is to check the unsanitary meth
DDS of cities, towns and villages in
emptying sewage into the rivers and
streams. He further stated that all the
streams in this state and all other CEN
trail states are used as water supply
for the inhabitants and that such con-
dition is a necessity from the natural
conditions of the country.
Mr.. Leighton stated that although ev-
cry river is of necessity more OF less
polluted, in civilized country, it is a
fact that the streams of Minnesota are
streams and rivers in other states.
"This is the proper time, however, to
make preparations for the coming evil,
said Mr.. Leighton, "and if the proper
action is now taken by the people of
Minnesota the future will be bright in
this state, viewing it from standpoint
of sanitary conditions"

ers over the price and when this is made
satisfactory to him and he brings the
animal in he wants the butcher to pay
for his dinner and give him slice OF
meat and some bologna besides. With
the packer there is one price and no fur
ther trouble. For this reason, any cheap
ening in the price of meat by the pack
ers will affect the local market at once

With Complaints.
From Wednesdays Daily.
The Eberhart railroad rate investigat-
ing committee yesterday discussed the
scope to be covered by the legislative
investigation of Minnesota railroads and
their freight and passenger tariffs. While
little specific information of alleged dis,
ordinations developed at the meeting
of the committee, there was a general
discussion of the purposes of the com
mittee and it was indicated that the
hearings would cover awide range of
subjects. 1t was apparent from the dis
cussion that the chief complaints are
from Southern Minnesota points.
George S. Lotus, st. Paul, chairman
of the executive board of the Minneso
to Shippers and Receivers association
was present and it was agreed that
certain grievances to be presented by
him against the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul railroad should be considered al
an adjourned meeting of the committee
to be held Friday, at which j. T. Con
ley, assistant general traffic manager Of
the railroad, should be present.
/ Mr.. LOTUS asked yesterday what de-
partments of the railroad rate question
the committee proposed to investigate
and Chairman Eberhart told him that
the private car evil, demurrage charges
and the charges of express companies
were properly included in the discussion
of freight and passenger tariffs.

JUVENILE COURT.
Judge Piymat Takes Steps to Have
One in Mankato.

u0 sNsoVRotSs
Judge Plymat is working hard to es.
tablish juvenile branch of the NUM-
cipal court in Mankato. The present
laws of the state provide the necessary
legislation for the establishment of these
courts in the three larger cities of the
state, and Judge Plymat has opened a
correspondence with Senator Eberhart
with view to having the law changed
SO as to take within its scope cities with
a population of 10000 and upwards.
Judge Plymat's idea is that the mmi-
cipal Judge of Mankato could conduct
this court without extra compensation,
so that there would be no expense at
tached. He believes that it is import
ant that the children be looked after and
at the same time not be made to feel
that they are criminals. These courts
have proved successful in raany places
and not only are naughty boys brought
before it but the differences that arise
between children are also settled there
