Escaped From Chain Gang.

People generally will regret to
learn of the escape of the negro,
Will Thompson, from the chain
gang. Thompson was convicted
at the the February term of the
Superior court, of violation of the
prohibition law, and was sentenced
to the chain gang for eighteen
months. 1t IS said that the
negro was atrusty. One would
imagine that q prisoner would
have to behave himself longer
than five OF six weeks, before be-
ing made a trusty, on the chain
gang. This escape was made from
ths long term gang with the $65

FIGHT DISEASE SPREAD
IN CHINESE LAUNDRIES
Method of SprinkIing Clothes to be Stopped by
Chicago Health officiaIs. Who See
Danger In Practice.

Criminal action may be taken against Chinese
laundrymen in Chicago who sprinkle clothes
by blowing water through their mouths
Complaints have been brought to the attention
Of Health Commissioner Evans that disease
has resulted from this practice.
GERMS LODGE IN COLLAR
These complaints, coming upon the heels OF
reports from Patterson. New Jersey, that .
citizen of that place had contracted leprosy
from collar ironed by q Chinese laundry
here. The collar was rough edged and the
germs Of the dread disease lodged in these
breaks in The linen, the doctors say.
The possibility Of such a thing in Chicago
has stirred the health authorities.
A thorough inspection of Chinese laundries
is to be made, the owners win be compelled to
keep their places in sanitary condition and the
Chinese practice Of sprinkling clothes through
the mouth win be stopped.
CALLS METHOD DANGEROUS,
DR.. Herman spalding, in charge of the de-
partment OF contagious diseases, declared the
method Of doing up clothes in Chinese laun-
dries was dangerous and ought to be prohibited
by law.
''The mouth Is the favorite breeding place for
germs, he said. "If Chinaman had leprosy,
pneumonia or other diseases his
mouth would be full of infection. To deliber-
ately spread this on clothing is almost crimi-
nal That may be the way in which the Pater-
SON mans collar spread leprosy. Doctors NOS
admit that 1t can be caught by incubation"
An ordnance or state law is suggested by the
health authorities TO prevent unsanitary
methods Of laundry work. II is said that iron
ing even will not kill all the disease germs on

CELL
ANDREW LAYTON HELD FOR ROB-
Berry OF SOLDIER SCHRITT.
Police Spend Considerable Time Look
ing Up Evidence Against the Man
Who Is Suspected of Having Grab
bed About Thirty-three Dollars and
Then Performed a Pace Making
Stunt.

Suspected of stealing Fritz Schritt's
pension money-something over $32-
Andrew Layton spent the night behind
the bars at the police station.
A search warrant issued yesterday,
the police last night looked for the
missing money at theWashington hotel on
Main street conducted byJohnQuane where
the robbery took place yesterday. The
search revealed nothing, however, save
the fact that the Washington hotel is
not the cleanest or most inviting hos
telry in Mankato.
Fritz Schritt, victim of the robbery,
hung around the police station today,
without one penny" to his name,
whereas yesterday he possessed three
crisp ten dollar bills and over two
dollars in silver. He was too proud
of his money-took too much pleasure
in displaying it, and that is why he
lost it.
Layton Denies Completely.
Layton denies any completely in the
theft, despite the fact that Schritt
identified him as the man who grab
bed his money and ran. Layton says
he is innocent, and again in the
clutches of the law because of the COM
pany he keeps. The police claimed to
have found man who says he saw
Layton give two currency notes to his
brother law, Jim Clemens, while
standing on the corner of Mulberry
and Front streets yesterday afternoon.
Layton says he gave Clemens just
fifty cents-but positively no paper
money.
Returned With Some Money.
Clemens told the police that Layton
noon and asked him to go up town
with him. When they reached the
Busch wholesale grocery house, Layton
told Clemens to wait for him there, as
he wanted to go down the alley and
borrow some money of APT McTighe.
He turned in at point just back of
Schirrschmidt's bakery, as near as
Clemens could make out from where
he stood waiting, and returned with
some money.
Clemens, however, denies that Layton
gave him any money at all. And Tom
st. Clair sticks to his story that he
saw Layton give Clemens two currency
notes.
Layton is still in Jail, and an eff
fort will be made to bind him over
to the grand jury, as soon as the Led
better Schwandt hearing is disposed OF
