JEcT TO SIXTY TYPHOID FE-
YER GERMINAToRs.

WHEELING, Jan. 9.-Sixty millior
typhoid bacilli are daily cavorting witt
xix thousand school children In the
city of Wheeling.
Amazing, but pue is the fact thai
the pupils of the public institutions o.
learning in this city are thrown into
direct contact with the germs of ;
scourge into whose clutches they ma,
at any moment fall innocent and un
willing victims.
Warnings Go unheeded.
Despite the repeated warning it
Boil the Water, despite the fact tha
on n conservative estimate over 2Ot
cases OF the dread plague are nov
prevalent In this city. the board of ed
ucatlon persists in doing out to the
young idea which 1t would teach Il
shoot polluted water.
Filters Were Provided.
True 1t is that the school board but
scarce a year ago made an appropria
tion of $4,000 looking to the filtration
of the water used in the public institu
tions of learning.
But 1t is equally an accepted facr
that medical science has shown thai
in order to entirely eradicate the ty
phoid germ from the water that We
drink that It mast be boiled. Filtra
ton per Sc is not sufficient: for many
thousands of the bacilli that find luri
ing places in the water that we all
drink, are only killed by the boiling
process.
Tots Are Innocent Victims.
Families have the alternative o,
boiling the water. and since the dread
pest first showed its head in this city
most parents have scrupulously follow
cd this medical advice. but the chill
dren who trudge of each morning I,
school have no choice. They must
either drink the water provided 70.

Until the close OF an arjuous day.
In several schools indeed the pro
cess of filtering the water provided
for the pupils is not even adhered to
Many children throughout the cit,
are now i'll with typhoid fever or symp

Alya, attorney for eiizens Of Woods
county in their case against the con-
stitution, left via Tulsa this morn

records in the case To file an appeal
in the United States Supreme court.
He viii first ask writ Of superse-
deas, which if granted will prevent
a vote on the proposed constitution
until the court can hear the case fl

the alleged fact that the constitution

counties in Oklahoma territory that
were established by congressional en-
actlnent. If the writ is not granted
some other courses viii be pursued.
It is understood here that either JUS

OKLAHOMA MAY GET
TWO CENT RATE

Guthrie, Okla, Aug. 2.-It is the
opinion Of Attorney General W. o.
Cromwell that under the Kansas law
inaugurating a two cent passenger
rate, the Kansas lines penetrating Ok
lahoma, including the Rock Island,
Santa Fe, Katy" Frisco and Orient,
must also reduce the fare in Okla
homa to 2 cents. He viii immediate
ly commence suits in the Oklahoma
courts against these railroads, COM
pelling them to put in force the 2 cent
rate, basing his action on the feder-
al statute applying to the Territory,
which stipulates that railroads shall
not charge a higher rate, either pas
senger or freight, in the territory than
in an adjoining state through which
the road runs.

ARE HEARD
Many Indians Having lheir Restrictions
Removed Going On Rapidly

Judge Cusey, special representative
Of Indian Agent Kelsey. arrived in
the city last night from Pauls Valley
and is spending two days at the court
house hearing applications for the re-
m0val Of restrictions. Business open
ed Up early this morning, two appli-
cants having been examined before 3
o'clock. Judge Cusey, who IS ac-
companied BY his clerk, Mr. ". W.
Cornelius. viii remain till three o.
clock tomorrow afternoon. when he
will 90 to FL Reno to visit with his
daughters.
This is the ninth trip over the ter
ritory that Judge Cusey has made on
the same mission and during this time
hundred Of Indians have had their
restrictions removed. At Pauls Val
ley on the last trip there were p ap-
plicants. As to the per centage Of
successful applicants the Judge said,
Nearly all who apply are successful,
about SO per cent of them, I think.
Those who apply now consist prin-
eipally Of the class who assign no
other reason for wanting their restric-
tons removed other than that they are
American citizens and want to be
free to dispose Of their lands. In a
few cases they want them removed 50
they can sell them and get the money
The department is now pushing this
class of cases through rapidly. In
some cases the applicant has receiv-
ed notice of the granting of his pc
tition within twenty days. The ap-
plications and evidence taken by
Judge Cusey are sent Immediately to
the Indian Agent who passes upon
them and forwards them to Wash
ington for final approval. The red
tape procedure in this connection has
been abolished.
Judge Cusey, who travels all over
the territory, says he has not seen
such fine corn prospects anywhere as
in the Washita valley between here
and Ardmore.

Further Developments in Ore Both in Dem Shaft and Drift -0ne Place Averages 6 Per Cent and Other 10.

The last round of shots fired at the Denn-Arizona shaft this morning pushed the whole bottom of the shaft into G per cent ore, and the drift into night grade ore which will average better than 10 per cent at the present time Picked samples from the dirt assayed as high as 40 per cent cop per.
 Ever since the first streaks of ore were encountered in. the shaft great excitement has prevailed on account of the fact that there are many local investors who purchased stock on the local market some months ago when the price jumped within few days from SIS to more than S1OO and af- terwards fell back to between S25 and s30.
 At the time of the first strike which was on the 1000 level, the drift was driven through a considerable sized body and Pattison then determined to sink the shaft to the HOO level' and there drive another drift to determine the full extent of the body when the face of the lower dirt lacked thirty feet of being directly below the point where ore was encountered above this drift entered pay ground ana mas since been in the formation, seemingly i'm proving with every round of shots.
 The finding of the ore in the shaft at the 1170 foot mark was somewhat of a surprise and it looks now very much as if this is still further ex- tension of the ore body above, which it pitched at an angle calculated to carry it into the shaft at the point where ore has been found within the last couple of days.
 Last evening party of business men and investors went to the mine as the guest of General Manager Pat tison and spent some time going through the drifts and down the shaft.
 Last evening Pattison refused to make any statement other than that the ore was still evident in the drift and shaft.

TRAIN AND HANDCAR
 CAME NEAR COLL|D|NC
Clash Was Only Prevented by Throwing Car From
 the Track,

Four men who were seated on a handcar yesterday afternoon did some swift work to avoid a collision with the 4:3O passenger train which was pulling up the grade to the station. The handcar was moving slowly and the men absorbed in conversation, were not thinking of danger until the car gained faster speed as it began rolling down the grade, and just at this time they saw the train starting up the grade to meet them. There was no time to stop the handcar in the usual way so one of the men quickly picking up a handspike plac- ed one end under a wheel when the car and went instantly went up into the air together and then descended, alighting on one side of the track far enough away to be out of danger.
 A gentleman who witnessed the in cident, described it as exceedingly thrilling for a moment and he said that had the handspike been jerked from the mans hand when it was struck by the wheel of the handcar it would have left the man no alterna- tive but to jump allowing the car to roll on down to crash with the engine of the passenger train.

JAP INVASION IS FOUND TO BE
 4 DREAM
Large Body of Japs Reported
 Near Don Luis Resembles. Bunch of Yaquis Seen in Miners Dream at Mesa.
-

Considerable excitement prevailed in the district yesterday consequent to a Fumor which became current to the effect that there were a large number of Japanese working their way across the international boundary line in the vicinity of Naco. Although the report stated that there was four natives of the Mikado's land, within short time as the rumor progressed some one who did not want to be a 'piker" raised the total to fifty. and still later 1t kept climbing, uni la whole army was re- ported.
 As a matter of fact for some time past Japanese to the number of about 300 have been imported into Cananea, and given work, mostly along the rail roads building in the northern portion of Sonora. A large crowd of them elected to go to work on the extension of the railroad from Del Rio to No gales, and within a short time it was rumored that their object was to work their way across the international line into the United States, the land of promise.
 In Cananea the advent of the Jap anese was not looked upon fayorably by numbers Of the Mexican workmen, who feared that in time they would oyerrun the district and crowd the na- tives out of work. In some few in stances the Japs have secured work formerly done by the Mexicans. but it is not believed that there will be any trouble .... ... .--.- -."
 On account of the proximity, the i'm migration authorities along the bor- der have been very, vigilant, and have been taking extra precautions to pre- vent the entry of any aliens barred by the late enSltments of congress from entrance to Uncle Sam's territory. When the report was received yester- day Deputy United States Marshal Foster rode at once to the lower end of the district, making a thorough in- vestigation of the locality in which the foreigners were reported Co be, but found no one within a big radius.
 While Foster was riding over the lower country a report reached Lo- well stating TSat there were more than fifty JaDs on their way up the San Pedro Valley. The officers at once mounted their horses and started for the valley. They were heavily armed. expecting that there would be trouble with a band of this size. In this party of officers were Deputy Sheriff George Humm. Deputy Sheriff Frank Bauer and Constable Grey.
 They were met by Foster who told them of his trip, and the probable error.
 Last night the story went the rounds increasing with distance, but is un founded. It is believed that it was very similar in nature to the Yaqui In. dian raid which was reported from Mesa, Sonora, about two months ago
