LATER-Since the above was written
Mrs Mason has decided that after all
she would thoroughly investigate the
matter and report the result of her find
ings to her chief. 1t is not unlikely
that public sentiment as voiced by The
Seattle star and the urgent requests of
such well known Seattle women as Mrs.
William Pitt Trmble has had much to
do in convincing her of the necessity of
acting in this matter BE that as it may
it is to be hoped that she will probe
deep into the charges against the Supply

stantiated it is Mr.. Hubbard's plain
duty to commence prosecution without
delay.

FIND STRANGE PLAGUE
AT ILLINOIS ASYLUM
SIX DEATHS FROM "PELLAGRA''
ALREADY REPORTED
Many Authorities Attribute Cause to
Use of Spoiled or Damaged
Corn or Its Prod
ucts

CHICAGO, July 2O--Pellagra, a mys-
terious plague, as fatal as leprosy aIlH
usually found only in the southern
states and in tropical countries, has
been discovered among inmates OF the
insane wards at the Dunning asylum.
Three middle-aged women are now
suffering with the dread malady, ano
six other women have succumbed &c
the disease within the past year. Al
the time of their death Dunning physl-
clans were mystified as to the nature
of their ailment.
A suspicion that pellagra was the ar,
Fiction of the women was confirmed
Yesterday by DR.. c. H. Lavinder, a
surgeon of the United states public
health and marine hospital service
who for the last two years has been
making an exhaustive study of the
baffing disease at a laboratory at Co
lumbia, S. c.
"Pellagra is one of the most mysteri-
GUS diseases known to science SAID
DR.. Lavinder Its cause is not en-
tirely understood, and no certain cure
has been found for IT,
Most authorities attribute the DIS
ease to the use as food of spoiled or
damaged corn or it's products. But nc
one is able to state that corn in a GER
tain condition will cause the disease
nor can anyone guard against 1t.
"Penagra eats out the body and mind
hut it is a chronic disease, and not
acute. and usually, when insanity Is
caused. the patient is depressed 2nd
moody rather than violent.
"The disease is not considered COM
n7unicable. and no effort is made any
where either in Europe or in the Unit
ed states, to quarantine the cases.

YOUNG NEW YORK WOMAN HAS
A NARROW ESCAPE
Rather Than Return to Asylum, She
Climbs Tall Clothes Pole
and Then Leaps
from 1t

NEW YORK, July 20.-Julia Mikes
who previously had been in an insane
asylum, showed little effects today of
her thrilling leap from the top of a
siXty-foot clothes-line pole in the rear
of her East Side home.
When the young woman overheard
her parents planning to send her away
again, she ran from the house and,
with remarkable agility, Skinned up
the tall pole from which are strung the
clothes-lines for the five floors of the
tenement.
She had reached the very top and
was perched there when the first po-
liceman arrived. He summoned other
officers and they brought a life net
from a neighboring fire engine house.
This was stretched below the pole and
one officer climbed up in an effort to
coax the girl down with glass of
wine.
AS he approached her, she kicked the
glass from his hand. He reached for
Iher foot and she leaped away from
him, falling the sixty feet into the
yard and missing the life net by a
few inches. Her fall was broken,
however, by the series of clothes-lines,
and she was not badly hurt.
1t required three officers to restrain

recommendation Of the White commit

in the report which it has submitted TO
~ the board of managers that the COM
mittee of quotations should be estab-

other exchanges of the highest order,
and therefore urges discOntlnuance or
the present daily quotations made by
the committee of five of the metal eN-
change, which were criticised in the
report of the special committee ap-
pointed by Governor Hughes.

further advocates the establishment in

"casting"-be included under the ore
term of STANDARD copper subject to
the following specifications as 10 de-
livery on contract:
