WOMAN'S DEATH IS
BLAMED TO POISON
tBy Associated Press.1


PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. IA very
mysterious case is now occupying the
attention of the coroner Last night
Mrs. NJ w. Aiken, living on a farm
near Phoenix, just before Ietiring took
a cup of coffee, dose OF what she
told her husband was quinine, to re-
lieve a cold, and died a few minutes
after. The quinine. 1t is alleged, was
procured of neighbor. Mrs. McIn-
tyre, during the afternoon.
The autopsy indicates strychnine, as
do the dregs in the teacup, by simple
tests. but an analysis has not yet been
made. Nevertheless, the Mcintyre
family presents the bottle from which
the drug is supposed to have been
taken, and by simple tests it seems
to be quinine, but an analysis is to
follow.
Mr. Mcintyre says he took a dose
from the same bottle a few months
ago.

HELP ELECT BRYAN

declining to remedy that act; arraign-
ing the Republican, party for reject
ing the anti-injunction plank; declar-

Taking the Lords Prayer for his text,
Rev. R.N. Wilcox preached a most
interesting sermon last Sunday to a
large congregation. He urged repeating
this beautiful prayer clause by clause,
slowly and understandlngly, Spoke OF
the necessity of discipline. Said many
of us no longer had the faith of our
childhood, and that discipline wa the
first step towards faith. "Thy will be
dOne"-we have q Master. Learn
obedience and so command our passions
and our talents. There are three him
ORANGES 20 our doing the will of God:
Ignorance, self will and sloth. We are
content to be ignorant lest we find
something in Gods will we do not wish
TO do. Self-will. Our own wishes and
desires and not those of God. Sloth-
laziness. We are placed in this world
to work not to be slothful; he then told
of the ease with which we may deceive
ourselves.

ourselves,

One Of the principal requirements Of
a mayor in Germany Is unqualified hon.
esty, for in the municipal administra-
ton Of Germany graft in any form
would not be tolerated. To become the
10Y Of a city like Berlin the ap-
plicant must have established his repu-
tation for efficiency in governing other
German cities. His career is carefully
scrutinized by the members Of the
town council who select him, for not
only must he be competent and sue
cessfulIy perform the duties of his high
position, but still so young as likely to
remain competent for many years, for
a a y in Prussia is elected for a
term Of twelve years and If not re-
elected after that period is entitled to
a life pension of half the amount Of his
salary. After a service Of six years
his pension is one-fourth Of his salary
and after serving twenty years two
thirds. He need not necessarily be a
resident of Berlin at the time Of his
appointment-in fact, the mayor is usu-
ally chosen from the residents Of other
cities.

IMPURE lcE.
Harvesting From Polluted Sources Fer
Household Use.

Harvesting From Polluted Sources Fer
Household Use.
The purity and wholesomeness Of
the ice supply have heretofore seemed
to be a matter Of much less concern to
both sanitary engineers and censum-
ers than the quality of the water sup
ply. Yet, in view of the increasing uses
OF ice, its purity is rapidly becoming a
matter Of but slightly less Importance
than that OF water. While the chem
tcal composition and the factors which
affect the purity Of water have re-
ceived q large amount of attention by
the agricultural experiment stations,
little stud has been made OF ice sup
plies in station laboratories.
From Shallow Ponds.
The consensus Of opinion Is that nat
ural ice formed to a reasonable depth
10 comparatively pure under usual cir
cumstances, but that it is very likely
to be contaminated IL it freezes to the
full depth Of a shallow pond or stream
or II 1t is Hooded, particularly with
surface. water. The Vermont expert
ment station found that OF a small
number OF samples Of pond ice exam
lned all were unfit for household use.
The following extracts from a recent
publication OF the New York state de-
partment Of health regarding ice and
ice supplies bear directly upon this
question:
In general there are a great many
conceivable ways that fee and ice sup
plies may become infected. The dan
ger from many Of these causes Of in
lection may, however, be so remote or
no t~nfrequent as to hardly merit no.
dce. There are, however, a few dan
gers associated with the formation of
natural ice and the harvesting Of the
ice supplies as now generally practiced
which do merit consideration.
I~nsanitary Conditions.
The first Of these dangers Is the one
due to the harvesting Of ice from pol
luted sources. This Ice may be taken
from ponds or rivers which have been
polluted by sewage and may contain
the germs OF typhoid fever and Other
diseases.
Second.-Tce may become contami
mated during the period and operations
Of harvesting by filth which may have
come from infected sources. The hands
and feet Of laborers or the hoofs o.
horses may be the channels by which
infection may be transmitted to the icI
even after 1t has been taken from thu
water and Notwithstanding the purit!
Of the water.
Third. Ice may become infected
from surface drainage from the ada
cent lands during thaws. The waite
which has thus flowed over infecte,
fields that may have been fertillzed o
otherwise infected may be carried OF
10 the ice and settle and be fr0zel
into 1t.

The paid and volunteer fire de-
partment again demonstrated its
ability yesterday morning in the way
of coping with serious situation.
An alarm of fire was sounded at
900, and in what seemed almost in
stantly, Chief Swasey had three lines
of hose laid and the water playing on
the flames. The conflagIation start
ed either in the rear of the old Green
Front dance hall or the building
formerly known as the Oaks on Co
roma avenue and is believed to have
been caused by a spark blown from
one of the nearby stove pipes, as
there was no fire of any description
in either of the two buildings. 1t
was but an instant before the Green
Front was in flames and with the
high south wind blowing it seemed
that. the town was doomed, The
volunteers and paid department then
showed their mettle. They fought
the flames face to face, never finch
ing or thinking of personal injury
or danger and with the slight shift
ing of the wind, stopped the flame:
