EXPLAINS LETTER
Officers Of anti tuberculosis
Society Not COgnizant Of
Talk, She Says

A further explanation Of her rea-
sons for not sending a Christmas
check to the Anti-Tuberculosis So
ciety has been received from Mrs.
Alfred l. dupont by William p. White,
treasurer Of the Anti-Tuberculosis So
ciety. The officers of the society say
they do not feel that an organization
Of the character of the anti-Tubercu-
losis Society should be made the
medium of personal controversy, and
for this reason will not enter into
further consideration of the matter.
Mrs. duPOnts letter, which was not
given out for publication by the So
ciety, reads as follows:
Montreal, Canada, Dec. 10, 1910.
"Mr. William P. White, treasurer, Del
aware Anti-Tuberculosis Society,
Wilmington, Del
Dear Sir: Your letter of explana-
tion on behalf of the Delaware Anti
tuberculosis Society has been for
warded, and l am giving it my i'm
mediate attention to asure you that
when ! wrote you with regard to the
receipt of the Christmas checks / was
practically convinced that the officers
of your society were in ignorance of
the manner in which the society had
been used. II was for this reason that
1t seemed to be best TO be en-
tirely frank in my refusal to contrib
ute at this time. The circumstance to
which / allude has nothing whatso-
ever to do with any business meetings
Of the society, of which, of course, l
have no reason to be informed, but is
an incideAt of common knowledge in
Wilmington.
"In order for the work of any or
ganization to meet with success, It is
imperative that the affairs conducted
under the auspices of that organiza-
tion, should not fall into the hands,
even temporarily, of persons of small
mental calibre.
Il will be very glad if your society
will appoint a committee to look into
the circumstance to which l refer, and
to publish the names of the vindictive
persons concerned, in order to protect
not only your society, but every local
institution, from being misled and
used by INSCRIPTIONS individuals.
Let me express on behalf of my
self and Mr.. DUPONT the deepest in
terest in your good work, and to say
that it, and the poor sufferers, for the
comfort Of whom it is conducted, have
our entire sympathy.
Yours very truly,
"A. DUPONT.
"(NIrs. Alfred I. duPont)"
N. BAT the request of friends
who knew the reason for not con-
tributing to the Delaware Anti-Tuber-
culosis Society l, personally, per-
mitted my letter TO be published by
THE EVENING JOURNAL.
William P. White, treasurer Of the
Anti-Tuberculosis Society, when ask.
ed this morning whether the society
would appoint the committee recon-
mended by Mrs. Alfred I. DUPONT il

BLOWN UP BY
DYNAMITE But IS
NOT INJURED

SPOKANE, Oct. 3.-Peter Buhfor,
laborer, was hurled into the air
with several tons of broken stone
by the explosion of IS sticks of
giant powder while blasting in North
Division street here, sustaining only
a slight scratch on the fourth finger
of his left hand.
He was standing directly over tie
charge when the blast was made.
Workmen on the scene believed the
man had been blown to pieces, but
in a few moments Buhfor emerged
from the debris, shook himself and
asked to be taken. to his home.
Afterward he said that the pecu-
liar sensation of his hurried flight
through space was the sound of
sweet music and a display of bril-
liant colors. However, he added, he
does not believe he lost conscious
ness from start to finish.

ply for milling and smelling pur-
poses.
AS to where the plant will be
erected is mere conjecture at the
present time, but the concensus of
opinion is that it would be along the
foothills of the eastern side of the
valley, at a distance of probably
three or four miles from East Ely.
If this is correct, then it naturally
] follows that the company would
connect the plant of mines with a
railroad.
1t is probable that In order to Sc
cure the water rights of the Copper
mines company, the Giroux manage
ment was compelled to take over the
interests of the Ely Townsite COM
pany, which owns large property
interests in both Ely and East Ely.
Heretofore the Cole-Ryan interests
have not been partial to town build
ing, but it may be that this prop
erty was forced upon them by the
Gunn-Thompson interests, which
practically controlled both proper
ties. If this is correct it will have
wonderfully stimulating effect
upon the future Of the two towns,
which will soon grow into one city.
Not only would the interest of the
company be centered in the upbuild-
ing of the towns but it would be a
guarantee that no other town of inn
portance would be built by the Gil
roux company is strongly intrenched
And with a smelling and concen-
trating plant located so near town,
it is not likely that the company
would permit the building of resi-
dences or business houses at its
plant.
1t has been previously announced
by the management of the Giroux
company that its plant, when erect

FOSTERS WEATHER BULLETIN.

Washington, d. c., July last
bulletin gave forecasts of disturbance
to cross continent to 8, warm wave A
to s, cool wave Z to II. This will be
the most severe disturbance of July.
particularly in and west of the great
central valleys. 1t will bring the most
general rains of the month and will
seem to indicate break up of drouth
conditions where crops will have been
injured by dry weather. But the rains
will be only temporary and the drouth
will return to torment the farmer and
dealer.
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about 10, cross Pacific slope by
close of II, great central valleys IL
to IA, eastern sections Is. Warm
wave will cross Pacific slope about
10, great central valleys ~, eastern
sections a. Cool wave will cross Pa
cific slope about 10, great central val
leys Is, eastern sections II.
This will be more than usual force
and only little less in extent and in
sensity than the preceding storm. But
comparatively 1t will be a dry storm
and its principal energies will be ex-
pended in evaporation and drouth.
Between the first and last described
disturbances will come the coolest
part OF July almost exactly when the
hottest part of the year usually pre-
walls. AS that cool wave comes in
some much needed rains will visit a
few places. During the passage of the
last described disturbance the rains
will not be general and only a few
scattered places will get relief from
the drouth. The temperatures will
progress upward from July 10 to 30
and drouth west of Alleghanies will
grow more and more intense. Not In
al parts but in large sections of the
great central valleys.
The rains of July may be expected
before IL and after July IL large parts
of the best corn sections will be af-
flicted with drouth and corn will be
injured to serious extent. The grass
crop is short, oats have been injured
and indications point to big prices for

the discussions in the Democratic and
Republican parties, the Socialists are
growing more aggressive everywhere.
Socialism is beautiful in theory; but
experience has proven that it is not

the most enlightened nations. If there
is to be, as many predict, a breaking
up of the old parties the Socialists
will be in the game when the realign-

If The Eagle should assert that
there isn't wife in Brazos county it
would be regarded as a startling as
sertion. Yet if we go back to the or

In its primitive use wife meant weav-
er. In this sense there are now no
wives outside of the factories where
cloth Is woven and the wives" are
mostly unmarried. This is one of
many common words that have lost
