Dear Doctor The meteorological
examination of the samples of water
showed that they are all deserving of
suspicion. A slight slip in the tech
nique of collecting samples might ac-
count for the conditions found. We
cannot in any case report on the pres
ence or absence of the typhoid fever
bacillus, for it is rarely discoverable
in water even when other circum-
stances point conclusively to the
water. The best that we can do is to
say that the samples of water contain
organisms characteristic OF fees of
animal or human origin. Since milks
always contain feoal organisms from
COW manure it is obviously impossible
to expect valuable results from a
meteorological examination.
l believe that a thorough survey of
the situation with reference to the
milk and water supply of each of your
cases will give you most definite in
formation about the source of infec-
tion. 1t may be case of contaminated
water getting into the milk. Care
lessness i'll washing cans without
scalding, or deliberate watering of the
milk, or accidental leakage of water
into milk, all are possibilities. A
few years ago Palo Alto had an epide-
mic of this kind. Yours sincerely,

CITY OFFICIAL PAPER.
FRIDAY...........M MARCH 80. 19Ot
Beating the Air.

Our contemporary tries to make
great howl in its peculiarly verdant
way about the efforts made by some
of Jackson's property holders to get
suitable men to run for city trustees,
outside of present incumbents. 1t
was a political crime according to this
oracle, to think of getting any one on
the ticket other than such as the ad-
talk will not go with the people. We
are inclined to think that any citi-
zen, and particularly taxpayer, has
a perfect right to call a mass meeting,
or to circulate a petition for the
nomination of any capable man. We
think it far more seemly for a simple
property holder to take this action,
than for the paid servants of the
people to pack round petitions In
behalf of those to whom they are
indebted for their positions. We
cannot see any need for all this Juror
over the citizens action, but we see
solid reasons for demurring to the
notion that any set of men are entitl-
ed to monopoly of city offices,
whether paid or unpaid. 1t is per
fectIy in order to refer such matters,
not to the servants in Office, but to
their superiors-the people. Further
more, it strikes US as altogether out of
place, when candidates are nominated
by petition, for officials to travel out
of their path of duty by raising a
finger-much less sounding a bass
drum-to get them to withdraw. Ihe
action of citizens in looking around
for other candidates was perfectly re-
gular and legitimate. The tactics
adopted to discourage them from
running, and to get them to with
draw, are irregular and without pre-
cedent.

Fell to His Death in South Eureka.

A fatal accident, of peculiarly
distressing character occurred at the
South Eureka mine at an early hour
this morning. The victims name is
Bias Kukich, an Austrian, SO years of
age. He was new employe, down
the shaft for the first shift, only re-
Gently from his native land, and but
little conversant with the English
language. He started to work last
night, and after working his shift,
prepared to ascend from the 21OO
level. Somehow he got on the wrong
skip to come up, and in getting off
he accidently stepped into the other
(south) compartment, falling dis
tance of $50 feet to the bulkhead at
that point. He was instantly killed,
his head and other parts of his body
being mangled terribly.
Coroner Huberty held an inquest
the same morning, before the follow
ing Jurors: John l.. Cox, A. Riley,
W. Bolton, George Gillick, Frank
Quirolo, Fl. W. Perkins, A. Gillick,
and W. Deaver. A verdict of acci-
dental death was returned.

Movements in Jamestown.
The Jamestown Magnet says:

Lie JaneSIOWn magnet says.
Thursday night, March 18th, the
Sierra train was two hours late in pull
ing into jamestown station. Among
the passengers who got off here we're
A. N. McVicar, an employee of the
Rawhlde Mining Company. He was
accompanied by lady that he intro
duced to the writer as his wife. The
night was cloudy and dark. The
hotel bus not icing at the station
McVicar and his companion walked
down town by the light of the lantern
we carried. Vending our way down
Mrs McVicar spoke only once, when
she sprang across a mud puddle.
Then she remarked "This is a dread
full placer" One week later. Thurs
day, March 22d, McVlcar looked into
our sanctum to say good by, and
stated that himself and wife" would
leave on the morning train for Jack
son.
Officers of the law are unable to
agree as to the motive which inspired
the crime. AS McVicar was known
to have but $3.50 when he left James
town, it could not have been robbery.
We doubt the San Francisco story
of his life being insured for hzr
benefit. That the man had a hold
upon the woman other than upon
her affections seems reasonable. She,
the wife of another, came to him when
summoned, and he sought to establish
home in Rawhide with Eugene
LeDoux's lawful wife. What was his
cinch upon her? He knew her in Bis
bee, Ariz., where Williams, former
husband died He stated to his mates
that he married her there. Did he
have knowledge of a dark chapter
in the woman's life that she feared
he might reveal? This woman's life

Last year according to the published
report of the department of highways,
the sum of S19,O76. To this must be
added the receipts from road poll
taxes amounting to say $4,000, making
over $4,000 available for road pur-
poses. The tax rate for road fund
was 35 cents. In CaIaveras the tax
rate was 31.5 cents, and the sum
realized was sl9, 169. In Ell Dorado
the tax rate was 35 cents, and the
amount raised was S15,9 Alpine
county had only s1773 for roads, and
to riase this sum required tax levy
of 40 cents. Mono and Kern counties
have the lowest road levy, "a cents
each. The other counties having
lower rate than Amador, are Contra

There was nothing in the conduct of
the woman to indicate that she had
committed such a crime. To the
officers she made certain admissions,
as to the purchase of the trunk and
rope, and that she assisted in packing
the trunk with the remains. But
the work of murder she declared was
done by Healy, in her absence from
the apartment. HeaIy on the other
hand conclusIvely proved that he was
nowhere near the scene at the time.
Mrs Ledoux admits the facts which
are capable of proof by others, such
as buying the trunk, rope, and hir-
ing the expressman. Also that she
took hand in packing the body in
the receptacle. She denies the kill
ing, and puts that upon Joe Miller.

RAID ON LONDON GAMEsTERS
Little Gambler. seek Immunity from
Police by EnterinE the Amer
lean Legation.

LONDON. Feb. 25.-(Special Cablegram to
The Bee.)-As a result Of the war which
the government is carrying on against card
sharpers. there was a panic at the Ameri-
can legation. and one Of the employees said
that he hoped that the bill providing new
houses for the American ministers and am
bassadoTs would pass the American con-
gress, so as to make 1t impossible for any
thing Of the kind to occur in the future.
The police descended on the gaming
house with orders TO show no favors, and,
accordingly, they made over fifty arrests.
Among those captured we're two peers of
the realm, a well known marquis. and be-
sides several other titled personages two
generals. lawyers and even ecclesiastics.
Many OF them entered the American lega-
tor and made their way to the front door,
thus effectng their escape. One OF the
members OF nobility dropped from the roof
Of the building in which the gambling
house was located. and entering a con-
venlent train, spent the rest OF the night at
Cintra. Yet another in his fright con-
ccaed himself in the tunnel just outside
the railway station and narrowly escaped
being killed by a passing train. His arrival
later at his club. whore he appeared hat
less and coatless. was enthusiastically ac-
claimed by his friends
