Committed TO Jail.

Committed to Jail.
Arthur W. Thomas was sent to Jail yes
tcrday in default Of $500 bail for refusing
TO answer questions before the grand
jury The inquiry was in connection with
the case Of George L. Goodacre, against
whom the grand jury yesterday returned
an Indictment. charging him with pool
selling and setting up a gaming table
Justice Anderson fixed his bail at $780,
DR.. ". w Stewart qualifying as surety.
The indictment was secured, it is al
legged, on the testimony of D. William
Oyster and VIII Way, both of whom We're
cited before the grand jury to give evil
dence.
In its account Of the arrest of the
Goodacre brothers, this paper yesterday
stated that most of the bets were made
''at a cigar store. near New York ave-
nue." which was in direct communication
with the GOOdacTe headquarters. This
was an error. growing out Of the fact
that the Goodacre Iunchroom was for
merry used as a cigar store. Roland Wal
lace has Il popular and well-appointed
news stand and cigar store at $50 Ninth
street. but this establishment. It IS
unnecessary to say, was not in the re-
hottest degree connected with the hand
book enterprise. Mr.. Wallace never bet
q dollar on a race in his life, and enjoys
the esteem and confidence Of all who
know him.

against the recent admission into this
country Of two photographers in alleged

contended that they should be admitted
under the provision of the law. which
makes certain exceptions.
President Gompers says in the letter:
AT the time these two photographic stip-
piers were imported. there were for many
months previous thereto. and there have
been ever since, upward Of 80 litho-
graphic artists unemployed IN the United
States whom the AmericaD Lithographic
Company refused to employ, solely be-
cause they are members Of Il union.
Many of these 2i0 photographic artists are
as highly skilled as the two aliens In
question. They are labor OF a Ike kind.
and they are unemployed"
Gompers characterizes Attorney General
Bonaparte's decision as ''far-fetChed and
out of harmony with the spirit and pur-
pose Of the alien contract labor law"

Fraulein Eisele. young woman. who
tardily offered evidence in the case. which.
if It can be made TO harmonic with

favorable TO Hau.
Fraulein Eisele says that on the night
of the murder she saw a stranger with a
false beard enter a cab. and few min
utes after the cab was driven away she
heard q revolver fred.
II the statement that the shot was fired
after Hau's departure can be proved,
Haus innocence, to a great extent, Will
be established.
Experiments made by the police with
a revolver at the place indicated by Frau

have heard the report as she states. \
weak point IS that her location Of the
place where she saw the cab does not
agree with the statements Of the driver.

mon enemy to mankind.
The Trouble at Chickamauga.
The awful outbreak of typhoid fe-
yer at Chickamauga during the
Spanish-American war was caused by
the bacillus typhosus carried on the
feet of flies from the excrement OF
soldiers who came there in conva-
lescent stage from typhoid fever. The
water supply at this camp was analyz-
ed and found to be free from conta-
gion, and had the officers of the rank
and file at this camp given heed to
the warning of the sanitary officer
and caused every soldier to see that
his excrementitious material was
thoroughly covered with dirt or dry
earth, this epidemic would not have
occurred.
Especially is 1t imperative in or
der to avoid the propagation of such
insects as are carriers and dissemina-
tors of disease that we should get rid
of the open slop barrel in the back
yard, and should direct that no dish
water or other substance that might
contain culture media should be
thrown upon the grounds; that water
going into the soil leaves the culture
media on the surface for the propa-
CATION of insects of all kinds. Espe-
cially should we direct our people to
avoid throwing out any old cans that
have contained canned meats of any
kind, because from single drachm
of fluid that may be left in an oyster
can it is said one mosquito has been
able to propagate and produce two
! million of its Kind in a single year.
As to Personal Responsibility.
Daily newspapers have realized
and the lalty as far as that is con-
cerned have realized that whenever
an epidemic of typhoid fever invade:
a community there is somebody tc
blame; that carelessness exists some
where and that destruction to the hu
man family by this disease could ant
should be prevented. While it ma!
not be reasonable to go as far as wa
done at Duluth, Minnesota, a few
years ago, when the grand jury ther'
caused the president of the watel
company to be indicted for man
slaughter on the grounds that care
lessness on the part Of the compan,
had caused the death of some of tn
citizens from typhoid fever, yet 1t !
not unfair for US to hold that ever,
p,,hIic offioar uyho has In any uay 4,
do with the water supply or food sup
