PARALYSIS not
new DISEASE
EPIDEMIC NOW PREVALENT IN
IOWA EXISTED in COUNTRY
FOR YEARS.

Des Moines Aug. 24.--The state
board OF health, In the bulletin 1t Is
getting out relative to the infantile
paralysis epidemic which seems to
have spread over the state, shows
how the disease is not new except TO
the people of Iowa.
It has been known to the medical
profession for years and for The past
thirty years records have been kept
Of the number OF cases all over the
world, showing the alarming manner
in which 1t has Increased.
An indication Of the growth Of the
disease is shown by the fact that from
disease, while from 1905 to 1909 there
were 8,054 cases reported.
| An alarming feature of the stats.
tics Is that the disease has become
more prevalent recently in the north
ern part of the United States, there
being record of 5000 cases now
The statistics on the disease cover
ing the past thirty years as they will
appear in the bulletin are as follows:

Links single to center was sufficient
for Oaks to scamper home. Miller
scored in the third, when he poled to
Boyd most viciously and Immediately
stole second. MATHS two-cushion rap
to right sent Miller to the bench after
connection with the home plate. Rus
sell again scored in the third, when
he bumped against Plympton slant
with his elbow Severeid's terrific
drive to the left field fence, which
made the bull sign duck its head to
evade collision, registered Russell
and put Sew on second Johnston
skied out to Bowling, who doubled
SEVERED at second Dowling's first
error in heaving Oaks grounder wide
to Eng, was the beginning Of Otrum-
was fourth run. Borton smacked to
right for sack, which placed Oaks OH
third When McManus pegged short
of second to nip Borton, Oaks mean
dered homeward.
BurIington's Scores Two.
Just to show that the battle was not
yet won, the visitors scored twice In
the sixth After Eng had whitfield for
the third time, Bowling hickoried to
left center for the middle sack. Schiller
outguessed Boyd, and McManns, good
Hibernian that he is, pelted to Sever
eiG for one bag, and Bowling raced to
the much sought haven. Schiller, bad
cess to him, pulled UP at third on the
smack, and when Wood pushed the pill
to Oaks, Schiller tagged tho gutta
percha before Link could place the ball
on Tim. Johnsson's fearlessncss on the
alDers in the sixth won him his first
score. He reached first on Schuler's
wide peg, and highway robbery gave
him the next two bases. Plympton re-
warded the larceny stunt Of Johnston
by essaying wild pitch on which jim
ME scored. Then arrived the shaky
seventh Boyd opened it with q single
to right. Kensel beat out bunt down
third base line Russell sacrificed mis-
mates to second and third, and Sever
eid made the pillows totter with a
walk. Johnston hoisted the leather
over left field fence for two sacks and
Boyd and Kensel scored. Senno
singled to center and Severei1 and
Johnston pulled up at home. Oaks
skied out to Miller, but Borton put the
pail out of reach in right and Serno
went to third. Link shot a high one

the requisite amount of tangle foot
therein and the ball bounced out To
make it stout, Bowling heaved the pill
over Eng's head and Senno and Borton
tailed Boyd ended the session by
skying to Geier. McManus' vicious
slap to Boyd went for hit in the
ninth Woods out, Boyd to Borton
put McManus on second, and, who
would have thought 1t, Leroy Plyinpton
laced the leather to the right field
fence, and the double scored Nc
Manus. SEVERED got single in the
eighth and Geier poled for two sacks
in the ninth, but the scoring was done
when the big micque who receives for
the Geierites crossed the plate in the
eighth.

outing and picnic, at which will be
gathered the pioneers OF the county

themselves OF another campfire. The
olden days will be recounted and the
deeds done, as well as the success and
hardships that attended the efforts

PL YMPTON WAS
EASILY PLUCKED

Plympton was no chantecler Of the
Myrtle street coop yesterday and the
game cocks under the well-feathered
/, wing of Ned Egan strutted away with
the opener Of the Burlington- OttumWa
engagement by the cackle Of II to 4.
Plymp's feathers flew thick and thin
in the seventh stanza Of the stew and
the Speed Boys pulled up at the
shower baths after the conflict feeling
very much like robbing their sweat
ridden pores of every item of dirt and
perspiration. The ducking they got
was no greater than the same thing
suffered by the old parrot-faced duck
ling that formerly web-footed around
with us on the regular pay-sheet,
namely Leroy of the hen-house OF
Plympton. Never in the kareer of the
bending fame Of said Roy did he meet
with SO much opposition in the brief
space of one hour, thirty-five as he did
yesterday. He held his craw high In
the ozone until the fatal seventh, when
the onslaught Of the Speeders made
the Nicaragua mill between Estrada
and Madriz look like genuine Pitts
town stogie alongside of a clear
Habana. -Four singles and a
double. with a walk and Dow'-
ing's two misf1res, to say nothing of
| Russell's neat bunt, accomplished six
large, juicy runs and put the game In
the gunny sack presided over by Pea
cock Ned. Until the seventh, the fans
felt all the same like a young gent
taking June bride, somewhat uneasy
inside the conventional black Tuxedo,
but after the dizzy details Of the
seventh were totalled up, they all sat
more comfortable. Rob the engage
ment of No. inning, and the to 4
standing would announce to those not
there that the fighting Pathfnders
were not shy their regular rightfielder
and first sacker. But it must be said
that the mix was not complete with
out the seventh frame, and that's why
the Speed Boys trotted out to he field
this afternoon with an air Of jaunti-
ness.
To make this tale sound more like
reading further, let 1t be said right
here that Boyd's fielding in the last
periods was most sensational, and that
Gus Eng got away with considerable
ignorance on the first cushion
Here's the Real Dope.
The first score Of the engagement
came in No. l. Russell was the car
rier pigeon and he started the flight
himself when he drove over Eng's
head for sack. Second was purloined
and No. 3 was reached when Matt and
Eng were disposing of SEVERED John
ston's single to left, sent Russell
across. Oaks followed in the second,
which he opened with a double to left.
