SALT LAKE AND
STATE NEWS
FLIES BLAMED FOR
TYPHOID EPIDEMIC
This Is the Gist of Report by secre-
tary State Board Of Health.

Salt Lake, Sept 30-That flies
played prominent part in the typhoid
epidemic. nearing an end in this city,
is the glst OF the report submitted 10
CITY Food Inspector Walter j, Frazier
by DR. 7. b. Beatty, secretary OF the
state board of health, Wednesday.
That most of the epidemic had Its orr
gin in the infection at Woods Cross.
however, the doctor docs not attempt
to dispute, however. although he eX'
onerates the Moss Brothers dairy
from blame in the matter The city s
water supply Is open to suspicion, the
doctor also thinks.
There were reported In Salt Lake
City between the first and twenty-Sey-
enth of this month. 12S cases, of which
about one-third were consumers OF
milk from the Woods Cross dairies,
one-third divided among the other
darlrles supplying milk to the city and
one-third privately owned cows and
condensed milk the report says. 1T
may fairly be assumed that in a ma
jority OF the latter cases milk was not
responsible for the disease. For this
reason the water supply becomes open
10 suspicion; and all water used for
culinary purposes should be boiled.
Many cases exist in localities
where sewer extensions and oonnec-
tons nave not been effected; and ous.
houses. the contents OF which arc eX-
posed TO flies. should be suspected.
Toulu :ecommend that an h3mc0iate
order be issued TO owners of all Prem
ises on which outhouseS are situated
TO cause the contents of the same TO
be covered with lime and to hereafter
maintain them in such a manner rs 10
exclude flies
THE law requiring sewer connec-
tion should be rigidly enforced
Until the Inauguration of a suit
able liberation system, which is one
OF the most imperative sanitary needs
of the city. there will continue TO be
danger from contamination of the
water supply because of the exposed
watershed. Ii Is almost impossible
to prevent this effectually, but every
effort should be made to minimize IT.
The city has the right and it is its
duty TO patrol the entire course OF the
streams supplying 1t with water and
TO cause the removal and abatement
of all Communicating nuisances,"

TROUBLE IN ROYAL PALACE.
Tidings Borne by Amateur Actor suf-
ficient to Lead Hearers to Ex-
pect the Worst.

The Shakespeare club of New Or
leans used to give amateur theatrical
performances that were distinguished
for the local prominence of the actors.
Once a social celebrity, with a gor-
geous costume, as one of the lords In
waiting had only four words to say:
The queen has swooned" AS he
stepped forward his friends applauded
vociferously. Bowing his thanks. he
faced the king and said, in a high
pitched voice: THE swoon has
queened."
There was a roar of laughter; but
he waited patiently. and made an
other attempt:
THE sween has cooned."
Again the walls trembled and the
stage manager said in voice which
could be heard all over the house.
Come on, you doggoned fool"
But the ambitious amateur refused
to surrender, and in rasping fal-
setto, as he was assisted on the stage,
he screamed: THE coon has
sweened. Success Magazine.

son and Keats are pleasant and sen.
sible things, you know. They are
not like political or religious argu-

ways make me think of three Maine
divines.
while three Maine divines we're
supping together, two of them be
gan to argue about the comparative
religious merit of the royal houses
of Stuart and Orange. The argument
became heated. The divines grew ex-
cited and angry.
William III. was a great rascal,
rcared the first as he struck the table
with his fist. "A great rascal, and !
spit upon his memory!'
"The second divine, turning very
red, shouted:
No, it's James ii. that was the
rascal. spit upon his memory
At this point the third divine rang
the bell, and said gently to the waiter:

CONGRESS will have its hands full
~ at the next session. The particu
lar matter which will be agitated will
probably not disrupt the union. al.
though 1t has been the subject of con-
tention since the states got together.
1t all came about through an in.
cipient insurrection on the part of
citizens Of the District of Columbia.
They got up dinner at the New Will
lard hotel in Washington and invited
President Taft Then they sprung 1t
on" him that they wanted representa-
ton in the government; wanted rep
resentation on the floor of the house
and senate; wanted a voice in elect
ing the president and few other lit
tie things.
President Taft told them that II
they wanted little things like that
they ought not to crowd their de-
mands into social affairs. He sug-
gcsted that It would be more to their
credit II they started a movement to
get back the slice OF the original Dis
trict Of Columbia, which a too gen.
erQus congress had given back to the
state of Virginia.
The citizens of the district jumped
at the opportunity. They welcomed it.
1t was more entertaining than a semi
political campaign. II would be more

District of Columbia Seeks Lost Domain

dlgnined to work for something which
they might Justly regard as beneficial
to their municipality" 1t might even
be regarded as patriotic. The presi-
dent suggested that they might get
some one to introduce a bill in con-
gress to bring 1t about. And It will
be done. Hence congress will have
its hands full.
That the getting back of this chival-
rous gift of land is somewhat of a hot
coal is shown by the fact that the
supreme court of the United States
evaded passing on its constitutionality.
and congress, which has picked 1t up
twice. has dropped 1t in two different
ways.
For the information of those inter
ested it might be said that this Vir-
ginia portion of the original District
of Columbia comprises some thirty
odd square miles, now Alexandria
county. The constitution having called
for plot ten miles square. the bal
ance of the district comprises some
sixty odd square miles. The one-third
now part Of Virginia. President Taft
thinks. ought to come back.
That President Taft was prophetic
in. his suggestion the lost third should
be recovered Is generally conceded. II
Is felt that it. will not be long before
this government will need it for vari.
Gus institutions. Already 1t has bought
back part Of it for Arlington National
cemetery. Fort Myer and other pro-
5ects. And as soon as the identifying
of the north side of the Potomac river
is finished eyes will be cast to the
other shore with a view to making IT
less unsightly.
