of the original Crossley bill by the
senate.
Des Moines, Feb. 27-(SpeciaD.
There was a sensation in the
house this morning when it was
announced that the McCash-Jack-
son bill, requiring mulct petitions
to be renewed every five years,
had disappeared The senate's
message to the house shows that
the bill never got into the houses
possession. 1t was referred to the
judiciary committee to resurrect
the measure, if it is possible. DR..
McCash is excited by the incident
and it is thought that it will re-
act on the saloon interests. which
would benefit by the disappearance
of the bill.
No blame attaches to any of the
officers or clerks of either body
for the disappearance of the mulct
petition. The bill was stolen by
outside persons unless it was
merely lost.

then continue through the large bile ducts into the liver.
 This partly obstructs the bile ducts and produces singgishness of the liv- CT.
 Sometimes the ducts are so obstruc- ted as to produce a stoppage of the bile. in which case the bile is thick ened and forms into connections called gall stones. Bilious collie is the re- suit.
 Most cases of bilious collie depend upon catarrh of the liver. For this condition pufgatives are generally used These give temporary relief, but do not cure.
 The correct thing to is to remove the catarrh. Then the liver rights it. self.
 Any one troubled with sluggish liy- CT should give Peruna a fair trial
 If, after taking one bottle, relief Is experienced, 1t should be followed by a thorough course of Peruna until complete relief is obtained.

state Health Oaacer Expresses His sat- isfactfon with Precautions that are Being Taken in New
 Orleans.

That another visitation of the yell low fever, to the South, is hignly im- probable this year: or, In fact, in- any future year. waS the statement made yesterday by Dr. w. H. Sanders, state Health Officer.
 The splendid and vigllant system now in force in New orleans and throughout the entire State of Louisi- ana, Dr. Sanders said, will have the strongest tendency to prevent the Ie- yer from reaching the United states; or fl, the event that 1t should get past quarantine, from spreading as 1t mas in other years. It is the vigilance or the Louisiana Board of Health, nc said, which Is safeguarding the people of the South more than any other agency. e
 As an instance of the wide-awake policy now followed by the Louisiana Board, pr. Sanders showed letter he had received earlier in the day from the Board in New Orleans. It was ad- dressed to Dr. Sanders, as Chairman Of the Alabama Board, and told of an made by the Louisit na authorities into case of supposed vel low fever The case had been reported to the Board by Dr. Hs. P Lowe of New Orleans and a committee of three emi- nerlt physicians was Immediately ap- pointed by Dr. C. H Irion of the Lou isina State Board. to investigate. Af- ter a most thorough examination, the letter announced. the committee naa come tosthe conclusion that the case was malariaI fever of the tertian type.
 Tn Louisiana. as in other Southern States" said Dr. Sanders, there is a law compelling every physician finding patient with symptoms in any way resembling those Of yellow fever. to report the matter to the Board of Health immediately. The Louisiana physicians .e following this law with the utmost Vigilance. During the last few months. I have received some fif- teen or twenty iettersNiike this last, and with such watchfulness on the part of the authorities. feel that it is all most an impossibiiity for the fever. even If it does reach New Orleans, to get a good start.
 History has shown. continued the Health Officer. that New Orleans has always been the hot-bed of the scourge. The, greatest source of danger 1t has always been regarded with fear by the rest of, the South. Until last year. it was the policy of the authorities there to conceal the fever when it settled fin the city, as long as possible. Under the new order of things. however, the news is made public and the physi- clans are notified as soon as any in- formation is received. even indicating the presence of the plague.
 This system of publicity Is much more effective than the old method. It keeps the people informed that they are being safeguarded and there is less fear felt than formerly When re- ceive a letter like the one which came today. know that the authors ties down there are vigilant and are watching every suspicious circum- stance. I know they are not going to fall asleep and let the fever get a foothold. So long as this c@reful watch is maintained, the people of the entire leans,

The thing came upon him with eX-

through the twilight with tolerable
calm, his nervousness showing only In
the occasional lifting of his hand to
his collar and the frequent changing
of his position, but when the lights
were turned on and he leaned back In
his seat with closed eyes he became
conscious Of curious impression-a
disturbing idea that through his closed
lids he could see the faces ON the op-
