TUBERCULOSIS IN THE PRISON
Per Cent. of Suffering Is Enormous
and There Seems but One
Remedy.

From several investigations that
have been made by the National AS.
ISOLATION for the Study and Preven-
tion of tuberculosis 1t is estimated
that on an average about Is per
cent of the prison population Of the
country is afflicted with tuberculosis.
On this basis, out Of the $4,000 prison
ers housed I'M the penal institutions
of the United States at any given
time, no less than 10000 are infected
with the disease. If the Philippine
Islands and other insular possessions
were taken into consideration the
number would be much larger. Some
of the prisons of Pennsylvania, Kan
sas and Ohio show such shocking con-
ditions with reference to tuberculosis
that many wardens admit that these
places of detention are death traps.
Similar conditions could be found in
almost every state, and in the major
ity of cases the only sure remedy &c
the destruction of the old buildings
and the erection of new ones.

CAR BARNS DyNAMITED
Alleged That Explosive Was Thrown
from Adjoining BuiIding-No One
Injured and Little Damage Done.

Columbus, O.-As a climax to the
innumerable depredations which have
been committed during the past three
weeks of the street car mems strike,
dynamite was used to wreck the South
High street barns.
The charge was either too small to
complete the intended work or the
parties handling the explosive hur-
riedly performed their task.
According to the police the charge
was thrown from a three-story build
ing to the south of the barn.
A hole least twenty feet in diam
eter was the result, and large timbers
supporting the roof, besides heavy
iron girders, were splintered and
twisted.
The explosion in the nelghborhood
was deafening. That the explosive
was thrown from the building to the
south is vouched for by tenants. They
claim that shortly before the shock
windows on the third floor were heard
to slam as if closed hurriedly. No one
was found who witnessed any SUSPECT
Gus persons leaving the building.
Wreckage from the barn was thrown
against the adjoining building, causing
considerable damage.

BULL NEARLY KILLS MAN.
Big Ring in the Animals Nose Proves
to Be Lifesaver.

Topeka, Kan.-An enraged bull" at
tackled f.. L. Overton in pasture and
tossed him into the air three times,
inficting painful wounds on the mans
body, lacerating his flesh and stamp
ing on him with his front feet. While
in the throes of great pain from his
injuries, and lying almost unconscious
i'll front of the bull, Overton noticed
that big ring hung in the nose Of tho
animal.
He had strength sufficient to reach
up and grab hold Of the ring and twist
it, forcing the animal to retreat. With
recuperated strength Overton was able
to throw his body under a wire fence
near by and roll to the other side into
safety.
The mangled man was alone and
crawled 40 rods to neighbor's house,
where he was cared for and attended
by physicians, who say he will sur
vive the ordeal.
