POLLUTED DRINKING WATER
Failure to Protect Wells In Farming
Districts Cause of Typhoid Fever.


The serious menace Of typhoid
fever in the country districts-a
menace arising from polluted drink
ing water-is thoroughly considered
IN a report by Myron T. Fuller of the
United States geological survey, In
which the various sources of pollu'
tion are indicated and suggestions are
given for means of protection.
Failure to protect adequately the
wells in farming districts is given in
the surveys report as the most com.
mon reason for their pollution and ig'
norance of the manner in which
ground water circulates is the cause
Of faulty protection.
Sources of pollution in the vicinity
of a well or spring should be noted
wherever possible and drinking water
should not be drawn except safe
distance from them.
For protecting wells, springs and
cisterns. Mr. Fuller advocates first OF
all water-tight lining to keep out
surface water. Wells and springs
should always be covered and protect
ed from animal dust and falling
leaves.

Wrecked by the Ghouls In Their En-

Millionaire.
Erie, Pa, Feb. 13.-The body of Mrs.
Anna M. McCollum, believed to have
been stolen by Shouls from it's resting
place in one Of the crypts in the Scott
mausoleum in Erie cemetemy, has
been found. 1t had been removed
from the spacious tomb and detectives
found It doubled up in a copper case
in another of the crypts not 20 feet
from the one in which 1t had been
originally placed.
Now detectives are vieing with one
another for the credit Of making the
discovery.
At any rate one end of Erie's most
sensational tomb-looting case has been
closed and there now only remains the
work of rounding up the vandals who
despoiled the mausoleum
With the finding of the body of Mrs.
McCollum, the idea now entertained
by the regular police and the repre-
sentatives of the detective agencies is
that the vandals forced their way into
the mausoleum in quest of the body
Of the late Hon. William L. Scott,
opened several of the crypts, dragged
forth the body of Mrs. McCollum, and
finding it to be that Of woman, cast
1t into the vacant crypt, in which It
1t was found later. Before they had
succeeded in forcing the great plates
covering the crypt in which lay the
body of the former congressman they
became alarmed and fed, leaving
their task uncompleted.
Finding the Body.
In the excitement following the dis
covery that the mausoleum mad been
entered and looted, the copper case
containing the body of Mrs. McCol-
lum was overlooked although several
searches We're conducted. 1t was
while the detectives were examining
the tool marks on the copper plates
which had covered the crypts that the
body of Mrs. McCollum was discov-
cred.
One of the men glancing into the
darkened aperture discerned the lines
of the case and he dragged it out into
the mausoleum court.
There lying partially on its side
with a shroud covering its face lay
the body of a woman. The detectives
gathered about the case, and one of
them. city detective who had known
Mrs. McCollum in life, proclaimed the
body to be the one thought to have
been stolen. Members of the Strong
family completed the Identification.
A. p. Burton, the Strong family I'M
dertaker, was called to the cemetery
and after the body had been placed in
another casket it was replaced in the
crypt from which it had been removed
by the vandals.
Mrs. Charles II. Strong, who was
said to have collapsed under the strain
to which she had been subjected since
the lootlng of the tomb was dscov-
cred, was said by her physician to
have entirely recovered her strength
following the finding of the body of
Mrs. McCollum.
