WORRYING OVER
PAPER MONEY
NEW YORK HEALTH BOARD
AGAIN CALLS ATTENTION TO
MICROBES THAT LURK IN THE
SOILED CURRENCY.

New York, May 24.-Officers of the
board of health here have again
called attention to the perils that
Turk in germ-laden paper money.
Soiled bills, they say, are found to
contain an average of $4,000 bac-
terra each, and although some of
these germs have lost their virulence,
the money must remain an object of
suspicion and an actual menace to
the health of the community.
Urging rapid Withdrawals from cir
culation of soiled bills, the health Of
ficers quote from a New York medi-
cal publication:
cit has been ascertained that
money can be infected by handling;
1t also has been shown that the germs
of diphtheria and tuberculosis may
live on infected paper. There is lit
tie doubt that disease is spread in
ways that we know not even in these
days of advanced research. If paper
money does spread disease, though
to an extremely small extent, this is
reason sufficient to insist upon quick
renewal of dirty bills"

A Freak Pelt.

w. H. Scott, the hyde buyer,
brought into the World Office this
morning a hide which shows some
of the freaks of the lower animals
The hide was of a cross between a
coyote ana sheep. 1t had the
markings of both species. There are
frequent cases of the crossings be-
tween the coyote and dogs and there
are rare illustrations of the cross
between the coyote and the sheep.
The pelt was one of the shipment
which was received by Mr.. Scott from
the Okanogan country. 1t cost him
IS cents but on account Of it being
a freak it is considered more valu-
able.

TRADE PAPERS, INFLUENCED BY
ADVERTISERS, DECLARE CROP
NORMAL-GOVER LESS
OPTIMISTIC.

1t has happened as prophesied that
there is wide disagreement as to the
damage done by the recent cold
weather to the fruit crops of the
eastern, southern AMI western states.
The trade journals, which depend for
prosperity upon the advertisements
of commission and distributing
houses, quite generally agree in say
ing that the freezing temperatures
resulted in comparatively little in
jury; but their statements, no doubt,
are cOlOred to suit the interests of
their patrons, who fear reports of
short crops will tend to strengthen
the position of growers in their de-
mand for high prices. Government
officials connected with the agricul-
tural department have not taken oc-
casion to change the views they eX-
pressed a week ago, namely, that
California, Oregon, Washington, Del
aware and Georgia are the only
states that will have normal yields.
While reports issued Immediately
after the cold weather may have eX-
aggerated the losses sustained by or
chards, still the fact remains that
the injury is not so slight as declared
by the trade papers.

BOARD GIVES
HORSE PENSION
PORTER, 70 YEARS OLD BUT
STILL HEALTHY, RETIRED
WITH HONOR AFTER SERVING
CHICAGO FAITHFULLY,

Chicago, May 24.-Porter, a e.
year-old horse owned by the city, was
given the highest recognition ever
awarded any animal in Lincoln park,
when the commissioners yesterday
formally passed resolutions congratu-
lating him on his 16 years of faithful
service and retired him on pension
to spend the rest of his days in lux
ury. Although 26 years is considered
decrepit.
Indeed he is far from being dis
abled or feeble" said William o.
Hamilton, stable manager at Lincoln
park. He has been a faithful animal
for 16 years, and we did not want to
run the risk that in case there should
be any change of affairs here at any
time he might be sold into strange
hands and perhaps fall into hard
lines"
The resolution says:
Resolved, That the board do here
by forever emancipate Porter from
labor; he shall never be sold, but
shall always have the place of honor
and the most comfortable stall; shall
be we'll cared for, watered and fed,
and remain the property of Lincoln.
These resolutions shall be framed and
hung in the most conspicuous place
in the Lincoln park stables"

tain water.
The utilization of the water of noun
tain lakes may be accomplished either
by tapping them AT the bottom or by
siphoning. The former method is
very troublesome. as sheet pilinG must
be driven and the wafer pumped out
ct the tunnel junction. aud where soft
soil is encountered it is particularly
troublesome In Switzerland. where
many mountain lakes are found. the
siphOning system has been introduced
This consists in sinking vertical
shaft short distance from the shore
of the lake. The water is Siphoned
from the lake to the shaft. TO which
latter the head race is connected.
Such an installation will be found
at kubel and at Lake PoSchiavo In
connection with the Brusio power
plant. The shaft is sunk about sew

triple plays were made, both in the

at one fell swoop in New York and du-

Boston. Dahlen's Daisies pulled off a
three ply killing at the expense of the
Doves also. Iris Speaker. who Jim
McAleer says is the best outfielder in
the country, already has made a dou-
BILE play without assistance, rare feat
for a center fielder. Ty Cobb in the

year beat Briscoe Lord of the Maps
