IS FULL OF TYPHOID.
New York Woman in Apparent Health
Communicates Disease to Others.

New York, April IA puzzling case
is under observation in the reception
hospital in this city. The patient is
woman, a cook, apparently in perfect
health but who is detained because she
is suspected of communicating typhoid
to about rs persons within the past six
years. According to DR.. Walter Benson,
the sanitary superintendent of Manhat-
tan, the woman is literally a living ty-
phoid factory. She herself was strick-
en- with the disease about six years ago.
1t ran the usual course and she recoV-
cred.
Now it is found that in all the time
since she was declared cured of ty-
phoid she has kept on nurturing and
developing typhoid germs. Though
herself immune the germs which she
has been developing have been a con-
slant source of danger and contagion
to all with whom she has come in con-
tact.
THE Lord only knows what We can
do with the woman said DR. BenZel.
1--WE will keep her under observation
and will certainly employ every means
known to science to locate and destroy
the culture group of germs which per-
sist in lingering in her anatomy"
Suspicion was attracted to the wo-
man as typhoid invariably appeared in
families where she was employed and
suspicion was confirmed through Gull
ture tests.
DR.. Darlington, health commissioner,
saws there is considerable doubt as to
the legal right of the health officials to
detain the germ woman. Science, how
ever, regards her as an unconscious
menace to the community.

COMEDY AT THE NOVELTY.
This Weeks Show Affords OppOrtuni-
ties for Good Laughs.

If there is anything in the old saying.
Laugh and grow fat" everyone who
attends the Novelty theater this week
will gain from three to a dozen pounds
during the performance. Each act that
has been secured by Mr.. Wells. the
manager for this week is of the comedy
order and the comedy is good and clean
and of the highest class.
Morgan and Chester in their sklt
echo Glen" kept the crowded houses
at the performance yesterday in roars
of laughter from the start to the finish
of their act. In fact the laughter of the
audiences at times was uproartous.
Archie Roger and Mystya, a young wo-
man who does a clever act on slack
wire, present turn of acrobatics which
they call "A Dutch Circus and in 1T
Rover does some clever stunts. He
turns a front air spring from his knees,
a feat accomplished by few tumblers.
There are two illustrated songs on the
bill, one with some beautiful pictures
called "Arrah Wanna" which is sung
by Miss Madge Chester and the other,
-.The Tale the Church Bells Tolled,
which is given by Frank N Irwin, who
will be the regular illustrated song
singer at the Novelty theater in the fu-
ture.
Another act, which is the medium for
a lot of good fun, is presented by Will
liams, Thompson and Hoey. Some ex-
cellent moving pictures are also shown.

ISN'T THIS AWFUL?
Remarkable Case That Worried the
Police Today.

A Roumanian tramp. who seems to
be only about half human, dressed in
the remains of two coffee sacks and
whiskers three feet long, was arrested
this morning by detectives after he had
terrorized lot of women in Potwin and
Auburndale. The tramp, who is an un-
holy fright in appearance, gave little
vaudeville show at each back door
where he applied for handout. Instead
of asking for food, he would square
himself in front of the door. and when
the lady of the house appeared, point
to his mouth, tear out hand full of
whiskers and eat the same, meanwhile
pounding on his stomach and roaring
like a Jersey COW. Several women went
into Mysteries, and required medical at
tendance. Mrs. J. G. Silligan, of 341
Eastwood avenue, was one of the ladies
who received a call from the ravenous
hobo. Mrs. Silligan keeps a large
healthy bulldog in the back yard. which
was warranted to eat a fresh hobo fol
breakfast each morning, but when the
ferocious looking tramp climbed over
the back fence and approached the
kitchen door, "Tige," the big bulldog,
beat it for the cellar and is still hiding
in the potato bin.
At the police station the freak refused
to talk, except to say when asked his
name that it was Loot Lirpa. (Read the
name backward.)

PLANS ARE ACCEPTED.
Eastern F1nanciers Approve Council
Grove Railroad Plans.

A letter received from Frederick j
Inrnick, manager of the railroad de-
partment of Lamprecht Brothers & Co.
by w. L. Taylor, president of the To-
peka-S Railway company
this morning, states that the plans and
Specifications for the road submitted
Herbert, their chief consulting engf-
neer have been accepted. The plans are
now in the hands of their experts who
win forward a duplicate set to MI
Taylor as soon they can be compile
ted, which will probably be within
few days.
The proposition of voting $4,000 in
bonds will be submitted to the voters
of Topeka at the election which will be
held tomorrow. Upon the carrying OF
these bonds depends the success OF the
road but there seem but little doubt as
TO the result, as similar bonds were Vo-
ted two years ago for the Topeka Esk-
ridge & Council Grove Interurban road.
THE bonds do not become available
until the line is in operation, said Mr.
Taylor this morning, land the taxpayers
are taking no chances in voting for
them. In case that they carry, and l
have no doubt that they will, the ROAD
viii be of unestimable value to the CITY,
and while the bond issue will amount
to $4,000 the road will spend nearly
three times this amount within the city
limits for terminals and trackage the
f1rst year. This sum will of course be
come taxable at once and add material
- TO increasing the taxable property OF
the county.
THE line will extend southwest to
the county line about 20 miles, thence
in the same direction across Wabaunsee
county to Council Grove, which will
make the line when completed about oo
miles In length. The different town
ships through which the line Will pass
will vote on the bond proposition dur
ing the first week of May and there Is
no operation to them from any source
as. the farmers need the line badly.
ftWhen completed, which will be by
the last. of the year, it will drain one
of the most fertile valleys of eastern
Kansas directly into this city. l inquire
that the active work on the line Will be
commenced on the first week in May
and pushed as fast as men and money
case, and there is every reason to be-
lieve that it will, We ought to have
trains running into Topeka from the
west line of the county by the first OF
August.
1.-THE company is chartered beyond
Council Grove to Marion, though 1t has
been financed only to the former city
and will be built only that far at the
present time. The Commercial club OF
Marion, however, is taking active steps
to have the road extended to their
city as soon as it is completed to Coun-
ell Grove which will make the total
length Of the line 100 miles.
THE matter of voting this issue OF
1t is general. At the request of the
Commercial club each large wholesale
and manufa cturing institution in the
city will have man at the polls tomor-
row to see that the bond proposition is
not overlooked"

made by a medicine endorsed from far
away, is it surprising that they wonder
IL the statements are true? But when
they read of cases right here at home,

Thomas z. De Put, proprietor of con-
fectionery. at 122 West Eighth avenue,
Topeka, Kan, says: II did not express
myself one bit too emphatically in
praise of Doan's Kidney Pills in the
statement gave six years ago. I had
suffered for years with kidney trouble
which started with a dull bearing down
aching across the small of my back and
gradually growing worse until at times
was often confined to my bed for a
week or ten days at time. Doan's
Kidney Pills relieved me of the terrible
suffering and corrected difficulty with
the kidney secretions which had been
very distressing and annoying. While
I have had attacks of backaches since,
/ have never been bothered with the
kidney secretions as formerly. When
ever I have noticed backache have
