Wherever you go IN Russia, you see
the men knocking over the women
with proverbs as unfriendly and
wounding as well-aimed brick.

priest say to the bridegroom:
Remember the proverb, lad--to

may be communicated directly or
indirectly from person to person.
Statistics show that the death
rate from consumption is increasing 9
in many of the states. While DR..
Probst believes that some action
should be taken against consump-
tives attending the schools, he said
it should first be determined and
thoroughly understood how this dis.
ease is communicated. No one hesi-
tates, he says, to exclude cases OF
small pox and scarlet fever from the
schools and if consumption is trans
mitted as are these diseases there is
no reason why persons suffering
from the disease should not also be
excluded.
During the FIVE years ending 10
1904 there were 1850 deaths from
consumption in Michigan of persons
OF school age. This places the aver
age for each year at $685.. The num-
ber OF deaths during the five.year
period showed an increase each year,

JUGGlED BOOKS OF
BOOTH COMP ANY
Big Game, Fish and Seed Corpora
tion Was Badly Mismanaged.

Chicago. Sept. 12.-Revelations of
a sensational nature were made pub
lie today regarding the failure OF A.
Booth & Co.. the twelve million dol
lar fish. game and seed corporation
which was placed in the hands of a
receiver Thursday. That the COM
pany's books have been juggled for
a period extending back at least three
years is charged in circular sent out
by interested bankers, who also set
forth that the company's statement
shows s1,200.000 had been deducted
from the liabilities and the books
made to balance by siniis4 juggling
of the asset column. BY reason of
this manipulation it Is alleged the
company has been able to float paper
that otherwise would not be accepted.
The members of the Booth family
are said to be in no way involved In
the questionable transactions and to
have been the heaviest losers by the
mismanagement of others in whom
they reposed confidence.

INTERESTING TRIP
MAY Be ARRANGED
Arizona Towns Should Get Busy and
Fix Itinerary of Excursion
From Congress.

The board of control of the Irriga-
ton congress is deluged with letters
from the southwest especially from
Arizona, asking for the itinerary of
the proposed excursion into that re-
gion after the congress adjourns. All
the important towns want to be In
cluded in the route.
or course stops will be made upon
invitation but until the congress as
sembles, and the party is made up,
the route and itinerary cannot be de-
termined upon, The route probably
will be by the Santa Fe railway to
Phoenix and from there by the South
ern Pacific eastward to FL Paso,
where the train will take the rails of
the Santa Fe again. OF course there
will be the side trip to the Garnd
Canyon over the Santa Fe's branch
line, for that is the greatest wonder
of all.
If the delegations so desire, stops
will be made for other trips by car
riage or horseback to the ancient In
dian pueblos and the petrified forests.
Another interesting place viii be tne
beautiful mountains of Prescott,
wnere a branch of the Santa Fe runs
into high attitudes by switchback.
From Phoenix, automobiles make the
run to the big Roosevelt dam and
Tonto basion in day, returning the
next day.
On the Southern Pacific are inter-
sstlng mines to visit while at FL Paso
anu across the Rio Grande in old
Mexico are irriga ton wonders. The
/ last stop would be at Elephant Butte
