CHECKS FRISCO RAT PLAGUE
Extensive Campaign Against Dis
case.Spreading Rodents.

Washington.-Whilc no case Of hui
man plague has appeared in San
Francisco IN two years and four
months and no case OF rat plague has
been found there in year and six
months, the deadly war for the exter-
mination OF rats in the Pacific coast
metropolis continues without relaxa-
tion.
with this statement Acting Assist
ant Surgeon G.. NJ. Converse of the
United States Public Health and
Marine hospital service introduces n
report containing interesting details
of the anti.plaGue work. This war
on rats is mostly in the nature OF
prophylactlc measure against reinfcc-
tion.
Thirty laborers are employed ex-
clusively rs rat trappers. There arc
in constant use about 5000 traps OF
the cage and snap varieties. During
May s.56l rats were trapped. In this
time the bait used was 321 pound3 OF
bacon, i0i pounds OF cheese and 620
loaves OF bread. Bread was the best
bait in cage traps; record is kept
OF the location each rat is trapped.
Destruction OF rats by poison Is now
limited to the sewers. During May
27,452 pieces OF poisoned bread were
distributed on boards placed In the
sewers.
City inspectors. acting under tho
United States authorities, have been
making a reinspection Of all premises
IN the city and Surgeon Converse says
the result at the present time seems
to show that the people have learned
a lesson OF cleanliness.

THIEVES INVENT A NEW WAY

Carrying on Their Work.

Phlladelphia.-Som time ago in
several large stores In this city II
was found that goods were being
stolen In wholesale way that set all
the floor watchers working with re-
doubled energy, but despite their OK
ira vigilance the thieves were not de-
tected for quite awhile. Finally their
system was discovered and through
the arrest recently of two men and n
young woman from $4,000 to $4,000
worth OF stolen goods were recovered
in their room. The detectives en-
tered the room Just as the three were
unloading goods Of various kinds from
the big paper boxes in which the pur-
loined articles had been successfully
secreted while the thieves were at
work in the stores.
The boxes were especially designed
for making thefts easy. the arrange
ment being something new even in
the varied arts Of shoplifters. A holo
about twelve inches long and FIVE
inches wide was cut In each box. and
the box was 80 carried under the arm
with this hole next to the side OF the
body that Il was almost impossible to
discover It. The accused would each
buy some trifiing articles and pay for
II. The bill was then taken and at
tached to the box in such way that
1t could be seen readily by the sales
people and store detectives. Each Of
the thieves would operate at different
counters. as a rule. but sometimes one
of the men and the woman would on

NORTHFIELD HALL IS
THRIVING INSTITUTION
John D. Hooker'S Latest PhiIan.
thropy Is Meeting with
Great Success

John D. Hooker of 325 West Adams
street has added an ideal philanthropy
through his interest in young girls
who are preparing for higher educa
tion in advanced lines. After securing
q house at 2110 South Grand avenue
and furnishing it with attractive SIM
plicity and comfort, thoroughly mis-
sion in style, he installed a cultured
woman to preside as matron. Miss
Maty Blanchard, a graduate of Mt.
Holyoke and Smith colleges, fills this
place and the sum Of SO per week from
each of the young women is all that is
demanded in return for room and
board.
The young women perform all the
household duties in their leisure hours,
an electric washing machine and elec-
trio irons being furnished. Miss Blan-
chard is always ready to advise and
promote harmony her mornings being
free. Her afternoons are employed
with the Violet street Fairgrounds.
Ten young women find a refined home
and are enabled to combine their am
bilious efforts in both normal school
and business college, which they would
otherwise find impossible with limited
means. They have also an attractive,
congenial home, which makes study
easier. The youngest, who is the pet
of them all Dorothy, is a motherless
young girl of II years.
Mr. Hookers niece, Mrs. Fred Hook
er Jones of 2430 South Flower street,
is the general manager and secretary.
Mr.. Hooker is president and the direc-
tors are all prominent women. They
are Mrs. Russell J. Waters, Mrs. w.
w. Orcutt and Miss Caroline Seymour.
one of the charming features is the
welcome hospitality extended by Mr..
Hooker to the young women, keeping
open to them his beautiful home
grounds. which are among the finest
in the city
Mr. Hooker has touched a tender
spot in mothers hearts for his philan-
thropy. On the anniversary of his own
birthday Mr.. Hooker presented the
home with a piano and in the evening
the young women made a big cake and
carried it to him, in token of his
thoughtfulness. The homo opened it's
doors September T. 1909, and is now
entering the tenth month of it's life.
