CATCHES BALL DROPPED FROM
TOP OF WASHINGTON MONU-
MENT.

Washington, Aug. 21.-Charles
Street, catcher Of the Washington
baseball team, today won a bet of
$500, made with John Biddle, Of this
city, by performing the unprecedented
though of. attempted feat Of catching
a regulation baseball dropped from the
top Of the Washington monument.
It was necessary to secure permit
from Colonel Brownwe]l, in charge Of
the monument, before this feat could
be undertaken, because Of the extreme
danger involved.
The ball was dropped from one OF
the small windows near the top of the
monument at a height of $50 feet
above the ground where Street caught
it on the thirteenth attempt, the
failures being due to a rather brisk
wind which DETECTED the ball in It's
course.
Street was considerably Jared by
the sphere on his big catcher's mitt,
but nevertheless caught in this after
Moons American league game in this
city.
Paul Hines. Buck Wing, Charley
Snyder and Malachi Klttredge, are a
few old-timers that have tried this
feat without success. The ball, it is
estimated, was travelling at the rate Of
125 feet per second when it REACHED
the ~catcher's hands. Street wore a
regular catcher's mitt.

Oleander Polsons Stock

Prof. Wilson of the Arizona Ex- perimental Station at Phoenix. has been considering a series of experi- ments to distinguish the fact that oleander leaves are deadly poison to stock. He has already finished some of them and has one or tive more on which a result has not yet been reached. Dr.. F. o. Rich mond. a well knwon veterinarian of Phoenix. and one who has been largely instrumental in giving publicity to the theory of the dead- Illness of the oleander poison. has assisted him by holding postmor- tenn examinations of the bodies of the dead animals. When all ex- periments have been completed. says the Tucson Star. Prof. Wilson proposes to write a bulletin upon the subject for issuance by the ter ritorial university. This bulletin will include actual and definite da- ta on the quantity of poison admin istered. it's effects. the death of animls. the nature of the poisons and numerous other things that have been definitely established. Sufficient has been learned. how ever. to demonstrate the deadIiness of the poison.
 The experiments began about two weeks ago and all the animals used were carefully examined and found to be in good health when the experiments began. Roughly speaking. one greer. oleander leaf weighs about one gramme and the gramme will be referred to as the unit of measurement in this story.

 in& Quarterly Report.

This completes the record for one year. Every county has Board of Health and an active Health Off, cer. They report that doctors are getting into the habit of reporting, also that the people are taking an active interest in the vital Statis. tics of the Territory as well as in sanitary work. Three towns have made general clean up. The oth- res ought to. Make the Health Officer earn his salary. He wants to, but he is neither omnipotent nor omnipresent. Help him. Every physician should be a sani- tary inspector and examine the san- tiary condition of the home he vis- its. One-half of the human race die before reaching maturity through preventable causes :. Behring says one of the principal causes is dirty milk. and when we learn that the milk supply of cer- tain city contains more acteria the c. c. than its sewerage. we are tempted to agree with him. We have no cause to think that milk in Arizona contains less. Urge the proper authorities to appoint milk inspectors. See that men are ap- pointed who know how to examine milk. chemically and bacterically.
 The three cardinal requirements. cleanliness, cold and speedy trans portation from the COW to the con- sumer must be observed, and the COW herself must be free from dis ease. Then, if the consumer will keep the milk 40 to 50 degrees F.. very few bacteria will develop.
 Dr. A. G. Townsville. member from Coconino County reports total number of IT births and 5 deaths for quarter ending March 3l. 1908 as against IA births and l2 deaths for same quarter last year.
 The total number of births in the territory for the year ending March 3l, 1908. is 1,56S; deaths 2032. Total deaths from tubercu- losis 5l6.
