Investigations at Frisco

San Francisco, October 3-The theory
 advanced by the Los Angeles police that
 the explosive used to blow up the Times building was purchased in the Giant Pow
 der works, at Giant, Cal, have been strengthened by the Investigations con- ducted yesterday.

 bore the label, Eighty Per Cent Giant
 Gelatine, Giant Powder Company, Giant, Cal; September 20." Frank Solar, su- perintendent of the Giant works, has
 identified the dynamite by a telegraphic description. He said last night: ''The only 80 per cent gelatine dynamite we have manufactured in several months
 was made about September 20 on an order
 from our San Francisco office to be de- livered to the launch Peerless
 Tt was a special order for 800 pounds and was stamped with our label the same
 as the dynamite found by the Los An geles police was labeled. Three men car ried on the transaction at our office in San Francisco
 Bruce McCaul, chief invoice clerk of the Giant Powder company, consolidated said today he could identify the three men who purchased 800 pounds of gela- tine dynamite from his company on Sep tember 23. McCaul said today the men impressed him by their speech and clothing as be- ing college bred. The spokesman of the trio, who gave his name as Bryson, saio he wanted S5 per cent dynamite for use in clearing his ranch near Auburn ol stumps.

THE RED GROSS
And TUBERCULOSIS
fBy S. Adolphus Knopf, NJ. D., Pro
lessor Of .Phthisio-therapy at the
New York Graduate Medical
School and Hospital.)


The history of the Red Cross is
known to most people. It owes its
origin to the feeling of sympathy
awakened throughout Europe by the
sufferings occasioned by the Crimean
war. The object of the Red Cross So
ciety is in the main to mitigate the
evils inseparable from war. All OF
the civilized nations of the world have
branches Of this truly international
association Founded in Geneva in
1863, it is now not quite fifty years
old, but what glorious work it has
done! Throughout the many bloody
wars Of the last half century the REQ
Cross servants were truly the admins
tering angels who lessened suffering
and saved countless lives. And no,
only in wars, but also in other dis
asters, such as floods, earthquakes
mining and railroad accidents, fires
and pestilences, a gerat army of Rec
Cross soldiers are always present tx
ameliorate conditions, dress the
wounded, nurse the sick, feed the
hungry and improve sanitation SO as
to limit the fatalities as much as may
be possible. The heroism of the Rec
Cross workers, both men and women
has never been surpassed by the gal
lantry of the bravest soldiers.
Now, this great association has un-
dertaken to fight the most formidable
enemy OF. mankind; one which unfor:.
tunateyl, cannot be met openly il,
battle; one which, by itsf insidious-
unrecognized by the naked eye, is all
the more dangerous and difficult to
combat There are probably at this
ness and because it is unseen and
moment 100000 people in the United
States suffering from tuberculosis in
one form or. another, and 100000
school children who are probably des-
tined to die Of tuberculosis before
they reach the age Of eighteen, and
yet modern medical science has dem
onstratd beyond a shadow of doubt
that tuberculosis is preventable and
durable disease.
It's prevention depends upon better
ing the hygiene Of. the masses and i'm
proving their living conditions, on the
early recognition of the disease, and
on the suppression of all centers of

y
infection arising from adyanoed cases
This is to be. accomplished not witt
cruel isolation or treating the unfor
tunate consumptive as an outcast, bul
by removing the eonsumptiye poor tc
special hospitals where they will be
kindly treated and the utmost care
exercised to improve their condition
and at the same time minimize the
danger Of injecting others. The
stages can be arranged so that there
is really no danger of contagion.
hTe cure of the tuberculous de-
ponds upon the early recognition OF
the disease and the timely treatment
in well arranged sanitary homes or
in special institutions, sanatoria, hos
pitfalls, or camps, and there is urgent
need for such institutions in nearly
every state of the Union. OF course,
for the tuberculous children we must
nave many open-air schools and chill
dren's sanitoria; and for the tuber-
culous adult, cured or sufficiently i'm
proved to do some work, we must
have agricultural or horticultural
colonies or other means to give him
outdoor occupation. y ~
unfortunately, tuberculosis is a
disease which is most prevalent
among the poor, and after what has
been said l need not explain any
further that in order to prevent and
cure tuberculosis in our own beloved
country, we need a. great deal of
money. All, the skill of the physician
and the devotion of the nurse is OF
40 avail when the tuberculous patient
lacks the means to buy good food,
cannot afford to live in a sanitary
acme, have proper clothing, OF rest
when rest is his only salvation. The
patients anxiety for those depending
upon him must also be removed. The
wife or children, the aged father or
mother deprived of their supporter,
must be cared for. Tranquility of
mind is as essentia Ito the cure of
tuberculosis as all other factors. To
do all this, say again We need,
money, much money.
Fortunately, this country is rich
and it does not lack in philanthropy
and brotherly love, and l know that
this appeal which is now going out
from the Red Cross will not be in
vain. 1t will give opportunity to the
humblest of the humble, to the richest
among the rich, to help in this great,
good and holy cause of saving lives,
making tuberculous| children into
strong and healthy citizens, the cur
able consumptives into bread-winners
for their families, and erndering the
hopelessly i'll consumptive comfort
aable and happy as far as it is in
human power to do.
The whole nation will reap the
benefit of a successful war against tu-
berculosis and this benefit will not
only be sanitary and moral, but even
financial, for every restored bread
winner and healthy citizen is an addi-
ton to the wealth of the nation.

CATTLE FOR FEEDING SCARCE
w. w. Williams Returns From
Reno With News of
Cattle Shortage.

Senator Williams returned home the
last of the week from trip to Reno,
where he says the cattle situation is
anything but encouraging. In the
Reno section, he says there is more
than enough hay to feed the cattle
that will be fattened there for the
market. which means that none will be
shipped by Renoites into this valley for
feeding. Several Reno buyers are con-
templating coming down here to buy
Churchill county cattle, which would,
according to Mr.. Williams, be shipped
out at once and be fed Washoe county
hay and urges those who have cattle
to hold them and either sell them to a
Churchill county hayman, or feed them
on their own ranches, if possible for
this valleys supply of surplus hay is
large, AMI from the present outlook,
the demand for it will be light.
