Willow Tree Alley Visited.

Willow Tree alley southwest was also
the scene of an exciting episode this
morning shortly before daybreak, rob-
berry being accomplished. Bicycle Police
man Jos Grant pursued the alleged bur
glar and, in the hope Of stopping the flee
ing man. discharged his revolver.
The report of the pistol shot did not
have the desired effect, however, the sus-
pect running all the faster. He jumped
the fence surrounding the property of c.
H. Beavers, 1924 eth street southwest.
hurting himself, but continuing his flight.
Shortly after daybreak the policeman
arrested William Mcknight, colored,
twenty-three years old, of 1926 Nolan
court as the man wanted. He was taken
to the Emergency Hospital and treated
for an injury to his face, and was after
ward locked up at the fourth precinct
station to answer a charge of burglary.

BURGLARS AT WORK
Attempted Robbery at Home
of Edwin A. Peake.
INTRUDER WAS IN BEDROOM
Drops Watch and Forty Dollars
When Pursued by Owner.
NUMEROUS THEFTs REPORTED
Thieves Appropriate Whatever L
Around, From Cash to Sar-
dimes and Cakes.

Burglars who have recently been annoy
ing residents in the northwest section of
the city seem to have transferred their
base of operations to East Washington.
The home Of Edwin A Peake, - Sth
street southeast, was burgiarized about
12:3O O'Clock last night and but for the
prompt discovery of the intruder Mr..
Peake would have been loser of his watch
and considerable cash.
Bicycle Policeman Garrett reached the
house about ten minutes after the man
had been frightened off. Mrs. Peake,
who had been awakened by a noise in
her sleeping apartment, was nervous and
excited, but was able to relate to the
policeman the details of the midnight
visit. Upon hearing noise. Mrs Peake
said, she aroused her husband, eXclalm-
ing: There's d burglar in here.
Where's my pistol?" the husband ask
ed, believing a mention OF the WeaI on
would cause the burglar to make his
presence known

Hold-Up by Footpads.

In South Washington last night COM
plaint was made that Maniis Zaganis had
been robbed on the street Saturday night.
His story was that he was at Sd and f
Streets late Saturday night and that a
colored man snatched So from his hand.
The young man was greatly excited over
his experience and was extremely anxious
that the robber should be apprehended.
Hell rob somebody else" said Ia
ganis, "if you don't get him.
At an early hour this morning Police
men Grant and Harvey arrested Curtis
Young colored. who is alleged to have
committed the theft. He denied the ac-
cusation. but charge of robbery was
preferred against him and he is held for
a hearing.
The theft of diamond ring valued at
SD from the house of Sally Thompson,
S14 G street northwest. was reported to
the police last night 1t was stated that
the article of jewelry was taken from a
glove box in the house yesterday.

Three Nonresident Patients.

Three of the patients were non-resi-
dents, and apparently were sick when
they reached the city. OF the remain
der ID were white and 8 colored. Three
patients were under ten years, Il were
between that age and nineteen, 8 were
between twenty and twenty nine, 3
were between thirty and thirty-nine
and the other > were between forty
and forty-nine. Seven patients came
from the northwest section, Z from the
northeast. l from the southwest and
13 from the southeast.
1T may be safely said remarked
DR.. Woodward today, that there is
an undue number of cases which come
from the southeast, but the cause has
not appeared yet. Only one case came
from the alley population. The most
we can say about the situation is that
the usual rise in the typhoid curve has
begun
DR.. Woodward says that, although ty-
phoid comes in regular recurring cpl
denies, the disease is we'll known and
understood and believes that much of it
would be stamped out if the people under
stood what to do to discourage the ty-
phoid germ The communication of the
germ is stopped in great measure by the
use of carbolic acid in the sickroOm.

Increase of Resisting Power.

1.-The resisting power of the body can
be best increased by measures that tend
to promote the general health Living in
pure air, whether in doors or out. but
preferably out of doors; a plenty of nat
ural light, no unreasonable fatigue. men
tai or physical; exercise in moderation.
plenty of sleep; frequent bathing. and
avoidance of excuses of eating and
drinking, including the avoidance alto
gether, or at least extreme moderation. in
the use of alcoholic liquors. are the prime
factors in enabling the human BODY to
withstand the Entertainments of infec-
tious diseases of all kinds, including ty
phoid fever.
1.-The citizen who would have the
greatest amount of protection against dis
ease must do his part to acquire it,

Heat Fatal to Bacillus.


Heat kills the typhoid bacillus subject
ed to cooking lust as it kills any other
form of vegetable life under like circum-
stances. If one cannot limit what he eats
or drinks to cooked articles, protected as
described above, or is not willing to do
so, then the next best thing is to see
that all that he eats or drinks comes
from the sources that are above Suspi-
cion, and that all such food and drink
are handled. stored and served in a
Clearly manner. This is not safe as
the use Of cooked substances only, but
in the absence of grave emergency is
probably as far as many people are will
ing to go. OF course, with respect to
flies. all food must be protected.
"When the germ finds entrance into
the body it may or it may not grow. If
it grows the patient has typhoid fever:
If it does not grow, he is never even
aware of having swallowed it. The fac
tors that determine whether it shall or
shall not grow are, first, the virulence
and number of germs introduced, and,
second, the resisting power of the body.
The same methods that have been recon-
mended to keep living germs out of the
body tend to reduce the number and to
lessen the virulence of those that may
be introduced. If, therefore, the pre-
cautions that have been recommended
above are adopted, they may, even if
not entirely successful in keeping out liv-
ing germs, so diminish the number and
potency of those that are introduced as
to prevent the occurrence of typhoid
fever.

Health Office Gives Rules.

In a bulletin prepared by DR.. Woodward
today some plain advice is given to the
public:
Persons handling typhoid fever pa
tients should, after doing SO, always clean
and disinfect their hands for fear that
they may be contaminated. The disea Sc
must be looked upon being readily
communicable and no unnecessary con-
tact with the patient. either on the part
of attendants or on the part of visitors,
should be allowed. In fact, visiting ty-
phoid fever patients should be restricted
to the lowest possible minimum. or better,
at least during the acute stages, forbidden
altogether.
THE typhoid fever germ finds entrance
into the body with what we eat or
drink, and possibly. in the case of per-
sons in attending typhoid fever pa
tents by the thoughtless introduction of
unclean fingers into the mouth. Con-
corning infection through the last chan
mel. enough has been said to show how
Infection may be avoided. Inspection
through food and drink may be avoided
by seeing that all of it is properly cooked
before being eaten, and, after being
cooked, is protected from flies, from I'M
clean hands and from unclean utensils

The Railway Bill.

Regarding the administration railway

With the introduction of the bill there
began such struggle as has been rarely
witnessed between the forces of progress

ought TO have had but they succeeded in
converting measure which in its original

Letter From Mrs. vedder.

In letter received from Mrs. Vedder
month ago, she said they had been in
Georgia just year and have enjoyed
it very much. They were having nice,
cool, delightful weather tho the sun
shone pretty warm at midday, and they
are looking forward to mild and love
ly winter. They had opportunity 10
see part of that West India hurricane
that struck the eastern coast of Florida
the last of October; the wind was ter
rife and there was a great down pour
of rain. 1t was at its height from B to
8 o'clock in the afternoon, but did no
damage there except to the roads.
Along the coast, 40 miles away, there
was much damage.
Mrs. Vedder said they had been hav-
ing radishes, peas and string beans from
their garden and at the time she was
writing they had new potatoes of both
kinds, The corn and cotton crops were
good but the oats was rather light.
Found it very interesting to see the cot
ton gin and watch the process until the
cotton came out in bale of $50 pounds.
The fruit was abundant there and much
OI III was snlppeu away, REACHES, pears,
figs, plums, Strawberries blackberries,
dewberries grapes, persimmons, to say
nothing of the melons. Sugar cane is
an extensive crop. No apples there eX-
cept as shipped in from farther north.
No need of canning pineapples because
they can be cotton fresh all the year.
Mr.. and Mrs. Vedder had made II trip
to st, Augustine a few weeks before,
the distance being only 65 miles. 1t is
beautiful place and of much historical
interest. They enjoyed it very much
indeed, especially the ocean, the light
house and wireless station. They suf,
fered considerably from the storm as u
tidal wave swept over the sea wall, the
city being very level. Mr.. Vedder was
gaining, but very slowly. OF course
there had been great change in a
year, but he had no use yet of his hand
and but little of his foot The Repub-
lican comes every Monday and brings
us the news from Audubon; and we
read nearly everything it contains, en-
joying it very much. We hope this
may find you all in reasonable health

SENATOR LAFE YOUNG
WILL BE A CANDIDATE
Before the General Assembly For
Election AS Senator For the I'm
expired Term of Sen. Dolliver

Hon. Lafayette Young, editor of the
Des Moines Daily Capital, who was re-
Gently appointed United States Senator
by Governor Carroll, has made formal
announcement of his candidacy fer cleo
ton by the coming general assembly.
Senator Young states his platform as
follows;
In this public manner desire to an
nounce that am o candidate for United
States senator to succeed the late Sem
ator Dolliver. In other words, ask
the general assembly which meets in
January to ratify the appointment made
by Gov. B. f. Carroll The Dolliyer
term will expire March A. 1918. / ann
under no pledge to Gov. Carroll Or to
anyone else in regard to my candidacy
for the Dolliver position, or for the term
beginning March 4, 1913. If chosen by
the votes of the general assembly as
senator pledge myself to the service OF
the people in honesty and sincerity.
Every good cause shall have my assist
ance. Every good measure shall have
my vote. AS | have heretofore an
nounced l shall attempt to be a builder
rather than critic or destroyer. Some
of the best reforms can be effected by
constructive rather than by destructive
work In judging the quality of a
measure shall not inquire it's source.
1t will not be my purpose to distract
the republican party, whose success in
1912 should be the aim of every repub-
lican. The republican party has dem
onstrated its capacity to do big and
wise things. The party should be sus-
tanned 1t should be made ready for
the great contest two years ahead.
1.-The democratic party has never
been able to satisfy the country of its
fitness to rule. 1t is considered unsafe
by majority of the people,
Il invite all of my friends through
out the state without further delay to
use their influence in my behalf. I"
Respectfully,
LAFAYETTE YOUNG.

the preliminaries ON Tuesday came the
reading of the Presidents message
which occupied much of the afternoon
One of his principal recommendations
is that instead of passing new laws to
restrain corporations, it will be better
TO properly enforce those already on the
statute books. In discussing the Payne
tariff law the President says that while
some of the criticism is just, most of it
is unfounded and much of it is misrep-
resentation. Owing to the shortness of
the session but little was recommended
in the way of new legislation. The
fourth of March will be here very soon,
and after that the people who elected a
democratic house can look to them for
legislation.

THE NATIONAL CONGRESS
MET LAST MONDAY
For The Short Session Which Will
Continue Until The Fourth
Day OF Next March.

The National Congress met last Mon
day as it always does on the first Mon
day in December. Each congress lasts
for two years, the time for which its
members are elected The first session
is called the long one because there is
no limitation as to the time and it
usually continues from December until
midsummer the following year The
second session is the short one which
continues only from the first Monday in
December until the fourth day of
March. But little work can be done
during the short session except to pass
the appropriation bills to keep the gov
eminent running.
The members of congress elected this
fall will not enter upon their duties un-
til March che fourth, and unless the
President should call an extra session,
which is not likely, they will have moth
ing to do but to draw their salary from
that time until the fourth of December
next year.
Uncle Joe Cannon continues as speak
er through the present session unless
the democrats and insurgents kick him
out, which isn't probable. Champ
Clark of Missouri will doubtless be the
speaker of the next congress which will
be democratic by large majority.
Both he and Cannon received great
ovations when they entered the house
on Monday Nothing was done, that
day in either house except to call the
roll and hear resolutions concerning
members who had passed away during
the vacation, when out of respect to
the deceased members adjournment was
taken.
On Tuesday, Senator Young from
Iowa took the oath of office Senator
Cummins escorted Mr. Young to the
: Vice Presidents desk according to the
invariable custom. 1t is reported that
Mr. .Cummins smiled when he did so,
probably thinking how soon he would
do so for some other gentleman; and
Mr. Young was happy as schoolboy
with new slate and pencil. Following

Poor, NegIlgent, or dishonest.

Two weeks ago we sent statements to
a large number of our subscribers who
live outside of Audubon county. Afew
have responded promptly and cheer
fully. Others seem to give the matter
no consideration. We have often won
dered why it is that some people who
live long distance away are so slow to
pay. Is it because they are too poor to
pay? If so, and they will let us know
we will be willing to wait until they
are able to pay. If not too poor to pay,
is it because of negligence? If so there
is no excuse and they should get busy
now in response to our statement sent
to them just recently. Or is it because
they are dishonest? We do not like to
think so and trust that every one of this
class who owes us on subscription will
prove this suggestion incorrect by pay
ing up before the first of January.
