MARSH IS DISMISSED
CASES AGAINST PREACHER AND O.
 H. HILL ARE DIsCHARGED.
Mobile Men Were Accused of Forgery aud Prosecuting Attorney fnta- mates He Will Co to Grand
 Jury.

Mobile. May 26.-(Special )--Judge Jules E. Afford this morning dismissed the charges of forgery against Rev. s. P. Marsh and o. N. Hill and ordered the defendants discharged.
 The alleged offense of Marsh and Hin consisted in the altering of note signed by Will N. Owen by the inser- tion of a place of payment.
 After leaving the court room the prosecuting attorney remarked that the case had "just begun" meaning that he will carry it before the June grand jury.
 The City and County health officers having invssti gated the condition of Mobile water supply reported to the Board of Health that the water from the city water works does not contain fever germs As a further precaution however the Board requested State Health offlcer Sanders to send the State Bacteriologist to Mobile to test the water.
 There have been several cases of ty- plloid fever in Mobile and a report had gained currency that these were caused by impure water from the city mains.
 That such is not the case may now be safely asserted The only point where impure water might be pumped into the city mains is at the sub-station on the old Stein site, and there is real ly no reason to believe the water there Is impure. But this station is near a settled section and as a prosecution the authorities have stopped the pumps there and rely altogether on the Bien- vile and the old city stations.
 As compared with previous years health conditions In Mobile are said to be unusually good. There are few CT cases of fever than either last year or the year previous

Campaign for Congress.

Although the first primary has just been completed. Hon. Dannittee H. Mays, who is to oNpose Hon. J. Walter Kehoe of this city for the nomination to represent the Third Congressional District, arrived in Pensacola this morning.
 He is stumping the entire district and intends to make the campaign a heat ed one. He did not make a thorough canvass during the campaign preced- ing the first primary. owing to the fact that he announced himself for Con- gress only about thirty days before the election, but in the second cam paign he intends making a thorough canvass.
 He stated this morning to his sup porters in Pensacola that he was more than pleased with the vote he received in the first election. and with Judge Criggs out of the way as an aspirant for the nomination he believed he can defeat Kehoe who is unquestionably one of the strongest men in West Florida

BUYERS SHOULD BEWARE.
infringements of Patents by Concerns
Doing a Mail-Order Business.

Recently the United States circuit
court for the southern district Of
New York handed down a decision
which is of particular interest to
thousands Of farmers throughout the
land. Two large manufacturers of
cream s%eparators instituted a suit for
infringements of their patents against
one OF the largest mail-order houses.
The decision of the court was in favor
of the compliments and a decree was
rendered granting a permanent in
junction and masters order on &C.
counting in favor of the compliments.
This case has been before the courts
for the past two years. 1t Is claimed
that thousands of the separators, in
fringements upon the patents owned
by the compliments, have been sold
to farmers throughout the country.
The laws Of the United States forbid
the using of patented machines, as
well as the making and selling of the
same. The court order means that
the mail-order concern will be COM
PEELED to pay an equitable amount
upon each machine manufactured and
sold. az well as the payment of other
damages ON account of such manufac-
ture and sales. 1t also means that the
two companies. who are the COM
%plainants, a prevent each purchaser
of the infringed cream separator u.s.
ing the same, or to pay a royalty for
the using of the same
The people should derive a lesson
from this. 1t is not safe to purchase
any invention put out By a mail-order
concern unless there is positive proof
that it is not an infringement. An
other thing is, were people inclined to
patronize home concerns there would
be little chance of being imposed
upon. and should trouble arise over
the validity of any patent, it Is much
easier to adjust matters with the home
merchant than with some foreign
m%ail-Order house.

IMPROVING THE TOWN..
Necessity for Sewer Systems and 9th
er Sanitary Measures.

Upon the healthfulness OF a city
depends much of its success and its
growth. Towns that are not reputed
to be sanitary places are generally
eyaded by home-seekers. One is often
impressed with the fact that in small
towns typhoid and malarial fevers are
often frequent and afHict great
er numbers according to population
than In the large cities. The simple
reason for this is the neglect Of sani-
tary improvement.
In the charter of many towns prOvi-
sion for the building of sewerage sys-
tens Is overlooked, and years and years
elapse before any consideration is
given to the Importance of providing
a means for draining away the I'M
wholesome increment that accumu-
lates. Then it is found that there Is
a great amount of red tape before
funds a be raised by taxation or by
voting bonds for the building of a
sewerage system.
Small towns as we'll as large cities,
generally draw their authority for the
making of public improvements from
the state. While nearly all the states
provide for bonding and the raising of
funds for improvements in the larger
cities and towns, the towns of 5000 or
5000 population are neglected. With
In the past two years the state of Ne
braska, realizing the necessity Of the
smaller towns having the privilege of
voting bonds and making assessments
against property for the building Of
sewerage systems, enacted a state law
covering all the points involved. This
law has already been beneficial, a
number of the incorporated villages
and towns having commenced the
building Of sewerage systems.
1t is always we'll when contemplate
ing the building of sewers to esti-
mate that the town is likely to grow,
and that a system adequate to give
necessary drainage for a town of 5000
would be inadequate for a town twice
the size. and as the town grows the
original plans are found lacking and
oio o0"eio5e iiueS VI liltlo u,iiilJ, 90
they must be replaced by new sys-
TENS. The economic value Of perfect
drainage for a town cannot be over
estimated. The health Of the people
is paramount to all other things, and
where there are unsanitary condi-
lions a town canno expect to enjoy
the greatest prosperity, though the
doctors, who are residents of the place,
may have exceptionally good prac-
tice.

Ohio.Mississippi Coal Trade.

The Ohio-Mississippi coal trade,
which exists to-day, is one of the
greatest single movements of cargo in
the world. From Pittsburg to New Or
leans is 1000 miles, all downhill. Coal
in 1,O0O-ton barges is RATED into fleets
and lowed down this distance by pow
erful steamboats,, at a cost of less
than IS cents a ton, against a railroad
rate of about $4.50-from Pittsburg
to Memphis for 43 cents, against a rail
rate of 1910. Millions of tons of coal
have gone this way and always will
go this way, because the boats have
only to drift, and those that come
back, mostly empty, are not hard to
shove upstream.-Every6ody's.

HORSES ILLUSIONS.
Coachman Tells Of the Rumpus .
Monkey Caused in Stable.

A coachman who for many years
had been in charge of a large stable
of valuable carriage horses, gave the
writer ONE curious instances of the
illusions of horses. Only once
did he find g whole stable in any.
thing like permanent fear.
He had taken ten carriage horses
to a large house in Norfolk, where
they stood in a line in a ten-stalled
stable. There was a tame monkey In
the stable, very quiet, which slept
unclaimed, sitting on n of the di
visions of the stalls. On the first
night, about II o'clock, he heard a
disturbance in the stable, the horses
stamping and kicking, and very un.
easy. He got a light, entered the
stable, and found them all in great
terror. Nothing that could disturb
them was there except the monkey.
apparently asleep on its perch.
He quieted the horses, locked the
door, and went away. Soon the dis
turbance began again. and this time,
slipping quietly up he drew a pair OF
steps to one of the windows, and as
the was shining bright, had a
view of the interior. The monkey
was the source Of terror. 1t was
amusing itself by a steeplechase along
the whole length of the stable, leaping
alternately from the division of the
stall to a horses back or head, then
off on to the next rail, and SO on. The
horses were trembling with fright,
though many Of them had rot the
least objection to a cat or a pigeon
sitting on their backs. Yet the monkey
had not hurt any of them, and their
panic was clearly the result OF Ulu
sion.

TRICKS FOR ABBY.
Queer Things That May Be Taught
Her II She 10 Smart.

One Of the most difficult things to
teach a cat is to follow like a dog.
AS a rule they will not follow, but oc-
casionally there is an exception. A
New York young lady has a cat that
trails so closely after her as to be al
most stepped upon. The chief clerk
Of the state department at Washing
ton has a cat with the same accom-
plishment. He has owned it for sew
en- or eight years. 1t will follow him
about the streets for miles just like a
dog, and is excessively fond Of going
out for a walk, provided its master Sc
lects evenings for his meanderings.
In daylight 1t prefers not to go on
these rambles, evidently because it
does not like to come in contact with
small boys and dogs, who are then
too numerous on the streets of Wash
ington.
1t has often been observed that cats
really care nothing for a master or a
mistress, but become attached to place
and not to persons. Not SO with this
particular cat; for at one time when
its owner changed his residence he
purposely left his cat with friends
who occupied the house he had va
Gated, but the cat was not satisfied
until it had found where the new
house was, and took up it's abode
there with evident delight at finding
Its old friend and protector.
In the treasury department at Wash
lngton there is one very wonderful
cat. His name is Tom, and when ad-
dressed he will quickly respond, even
waking out of a sound sleep to go to-
ward the speaker. Sometimes, to con
fuse him, the clerks will sing ont
some word or words in which the
syllable Tom is emphasized, and to
that he pays no attention. But let
anyone call: Tom, it's dinner time,"
and forthwith he walks across the
room, reaches up with his paws, t a
tin pail, slaws it down and comes
bringing it in his mouth. Tom is pas

sionately fond of music. At the cry
Of Hand organ!" he climbs to a high
window seat, but at the words Here's

One Of the most accomplished cats
in England belongs to Lady Randolph
Churchill. 1t is a Maltese Angora,
without a spot. and with a particular.
ly cunning face. This cat was brought
for the late Lord Randolph Churchill
during that year or two when his
strong mind failed and every effort
was made to amuse him. He was

at the sight Of them, but Miss Angora
