CHIEFS FOR
EPIDEMIC
State Health Officer Says
Trenton Was Given
Fair Warning.
Especial to the Evening star.l

TRENTON, Dec. 16.-Dr. A. C. Hunt.
chief inspector of the State Board of
Health, puts squarely and emphatically
up to the governing authorities of Tren-
ton the responsibility for the serious
epidemic of typhoid fever now prevail
ing in the city, and in so doing c%orrobo-
rates DR.. Alton S. Fell, the city's health
officer, in the contention that drinking
water drawn from the Delaware River
is the direct and principal cause of the
disease.
DIR. Fell further declares hat con
ditions in Trenton's waite. supply have
been conducive to typhoid for years,
and he further believes that unless some
vigorous steps towards Improvement
are taken the city will sooner or later
suffer an epidemic that will cause scores
of deaths.
IL am no alarmist," said DR.. Hunt
today, but the city of Trenton must
take time and means now TO purify her
drinking water, or she will some time
face an epidemic of typhoid fever much
more serious than the one now pre-
vailing. Water of the Delaware River
is no longer safe for domestic use with
out filtration. In 1900 the State Board
of Health furnished to the governing
authorities of Trenton a report of an
investigation by Expert Hazen show
ing very conclusively that the water
used by the city should be filtered. /
personally, nave tried in numerous
ways to interest the city in this mat
ter, but nothing has been done.
Trenton must face a serious condition
OF affairs sooner or lator. The time TO acl
in this matter was some years ago. 1t Is
not too late now. but there is not the leas'
doubt that lives have been uselessly sacri'
feed by not attending to the purificaiior
OF the city's winter supply"
DR.. Hunt went on to say that the STATE
Board Of Health mad discussed the condi
kfion Of Trenton's water supply some two
months ago, just before the outbreak O
the present epidemic, and a report wa
made at that time TO Mayor Gnichtel. TIT
latter submitted the report to the city
health board and to the Board OF Waite
Commissioners. but nothing was done
The forthcoming annual report of thu
State board will take up the subject ex-
haustively and point out why Trenton mu
take prompt action or suffer the conse
duences.

BECAUSE
OF HIS WIFE'S
MOTHER
Says He Slept in
Kitchen; Is Granted
Divorce.

After three years of married life
Ruzena Chalupa decided tina she did
not love her husband, and taking her
baby left home and went back to her
mother, with whom she now resides, in
New York city.
This was the contention set UP by the
petitioner, Anton Chalupa, who has
been a resident of his city ever since
his marriage. He alleged that his wife
left him without any reason, and
although he endeavored TO get her to
come back she refused. Vice-Chancel-
Tor Howell heard the case.
Chalupa in his petition also seeks pos
session of the child. The couple were
married in New York and came here to
live, starting housekeeping on Bergen
street, and later at 80 Holland street.
Chalupa said hat while he was at
work one day he received a telephone
message calling him home. When he
arrived there he said his wife was NOV
ing the household furniture. When he
asked her why she was doing this she
told him that she intended to move TO
New York city.
Charles Meyer, counsel for the de-
PENDANT, announced that his client
would not put in an appearance. While
the witness was still testifying Mrs.
ChaIupa entered the court room and
sat next to her counsel.
When ce-Chancellor Hswell began
questioning the husband tn ascertain
the cause, if any. of the wife's action,
he answered:
'Well, maybe it was because ! re-
fused to allow my mother-in-iaw to
run my house, Fol fourteen months ]
had to sleep in the kitchen. while my
wife and mother-in-law occupied my
bed. One night l thought l would oc-
capy my own bed, and this caused the
trouble.
Adam J.. Rossbach is looking after
the husbands interests in the trial.
Mrs. Chaluoa, in her own defense, said
that her Husband was an ideal one until
after their child was born. Then he would
so out at nights and remain out late
being left alone, the witness said thai
she was compelled to send for her mother
to keep her company.

alleged. her husband drank a great deal

Local Football Season
This Afternoon.

The first football game of the season
for Salt Lake will be played this after
noon, starting at 3 o'clock, on Cummings
field. The contestants are the teams
representing the University of Utah and

ter eleven this will be the first game,
while the varsity men have had the ex-
per1ence of contest with the Ogden
High school, in which the junction City
boys were defeated by a score of 10 to 0.
A week or good hard practice has made
the ''U' warriors stronger than they
were In the Ogden game, and their play
ing ought to come well up TO expectations
today. The teams weak places which
were disclosed by the game in Ogden
have been repaired in most cases. The
team formations and Interpretation of the
signals, which were the big deficiencies
have been given special attention by
Coach Maddox. The tackling, another
disastrous weakness which was portrayed
in the game last Saturday, has been i'm

In the game this afternoon Maddox will
give all of the squad a chance in the
game, but the first half will be played
with the regular team in the field as near
ly as has been selected.
Little is known of the high school lads
except that Coach Oglesby and Capt. Site
fel have a large squad to pick the eleven
from. Few of the red and black players
are veterans at the game. AS in the
case of the university, there are many
men who have not appeared before the
public on the gridiron before, and their
playing will be watched with great inter-
