CARRIE NATION ANSWERS FINAL
SUMMONS
Noted Kansas Saloon Smasher Passes
Away ut LeavenwOrth Sanitorium

Leavenworth, Kans., June Gar
rie Nation, the saloon smasher, died
here at 1908 p. m.
Paresis was the cause of death.
Mrs. Nation had been in poor health
for months, and ON January 81, hop
ing to recover from nervous break
down, she entered the local sanitar-
ium, in which she died.
1t became evident several days ago
that Mrs. Nation could not recover,
and DR.. A. L. Sumalsky, physician
at the sanitarium, informed her that
the end was near. She said nothing
but smiled. She became unconscious
at noon today and did not revive.
Relatives had been telegraphed for,
but only DR.. Sumalsky and a nurse
were at the bedside when she died.
Worry Causes Illness
Worry over lawsuits which she had
filed against a lecture bereau for al
legged failure to pay for services on
the platform is said to have caused
her illness. A nephew, P. G. Moore,
of Kansas City, Kans., brought her
here, thinking that quiet would re-
store her health. None but relatives
and attendants have been allowd to
see her her, A recent attempt to
serve her with summons in suit was
baked by the owner of the sanitar-
ium.
Mrs. Nation was not permitted even
to read her mail, as the doctors fear
ed the letters might contain some
hint of the pending suits.
The last five. months of Mrs. Ma
tons life in the sanitarium was in
marked contrast to her former activ-
lily. Once she saw physician at the
sanitarium sinking cigarette. She
made no remonstrance, merely say
ing that she had done all she could
to eradicate the evil"
The body will be sent to Kansas
City, Kans., tomorrow morning. Fun
Ieral services will be held there prob
ably Sunday.

BY THE WAY-DON'T FORGET TO
"SWAT THAT fly
(Statesman)

(Statesman)
"Swat that fly"
That should be, and doubtless will
be, the household motto in Boise this
summer.
If a housewife should see worm
crawling along the pantry shelf she
would swat" it.
If she saw a frog under the table
she would chase it out with the
broom.
If husband saw a garden snake
curled up by the bed he would kill it.
If humble bee should be buzzing
around the living room the whole
family would turn out to cause it's
hasty reteat from the premises.
Yet the worm, the frog, the garden
snake, the humble bee, each bears to
the fly the comparative harmlessness
of kitten to tiger.
The fly is the most dangerous OF
all, not because it can bite or
scratch or tear, but because on Its
fuzzy feet It carries from carrion
spots and diseased bodies the germs
that cause sickness and possibly
death.
Proper screening and watchful
eye on the garbage can and refuse
places will do much towards mini
MIXING fly dangers, but it is also
necessary to "swat that fly when 1t
gets into the house, and put out pol
son to lure it to it's death when 1T
becomes too elusive for the "swatter. y
Just little labor, little patient
endeavor, may save the family from
contagion.
Today the Statesman prints the
second of it's "Swat that Fly series.
it is particularly pertinent at this
time because it deals with the fly as
distributor of TYPHOID germs. What
ever typhoid is due will shortly
make it's appearance, and the flies
do more than any other agency to
spread the disease.

MARBLE CHOSEN FOR CAPITOL
Choic Made with View to Harmony
and Beauty

After long study and matching of
marbles of all shades and colors from
quarters in various parts of the world,
the marble to be used in the new
Idaho capitol has been selected by
Architect Tourtellottee, in charge of
construction.
Brocadillo, from Vermont, will be
used in the wainscoting and side
walls. 1t will go on top of the To-
keen, Alaska, marble, which will be
used for the base and staircases and
architraves.
The Brocadillo is a statuary mar
BILE, pure delicate white, with deli
cate greyish-green veins.
Pavonazo will go in to the numer-
GUS columns and pilasters. AS there
will be 100 columns in the Capitol,
the Pavonazzo will be one of the main
features among the various marbles.
The Pavonazzo marble is similar
to the Brocadillo, but 1t has very
dark, deep and heavy veinings so that
the two make marked contrast and
show each other off far more effect
lively than either could appear alone.
The Token is darker marble,
of lovely gray, with white smoke
colored veinings.
The floors in the rotunda, corridors
and retiring rooms will be of Alaska
marble, which is hard, dense, white
and smoke-colored.
Alaska Marble in Stairs
The Alaska marble will also go
into the stair-treads and landings.
The floors will be made of Livido
marble Of dark-grey tint.
The question of colored marbles
has been carefully studied by Mr..
Tourtellotte. The rotunda will be
circular, so the marbles will be cut
in circles. The corridors are long,
and for these the marbles will be cut
in panels and long, narrow strips.
The various colors will be laid in de-
signs giving striking contrasts.
Against the dark-grey Livido will
stand the figures in Oriental Lyon
naise, deep red marble that is even
darker than mahogany, and Verde
Antique, deep green of ravishing
tints.
The main combination is white
gray, smoky gray, greenish gray,
light veined and heavy-veined mar
bles, is beautiful and those who have
seen the Brocadill, Token and Pa
vonazzo marbles against each other
pronounce the contrast as beautiful
as they are effective Statesman.

SCHOOL CHILDREN'S TEETH

has been commenced in the Chicago
public schools. One hundred men,
bers of the Chicago Dental Society
have begun making examinations of
the teeth of every pupil, with a view
ito seeing that proper steps are taken
for their preservation, and thereby
the health of the children. To one
whose mind has always mercenary
turn, the thought at once occurs that
such an examination is likely to stir
up lot of work for members of the
Society for which they will receive
regular pay. This is likely to be true.
though the work would scarcely COM
pensate the individual dentists who
give their time to this examination.
AS an Offset to this idea that the
movement is strictly commercial, it
is said that free dental clinics are to
be opened, and such of the pupils as
belong to families which cannot af-
ford to have defective teeth attended
to may receive attention at these
clinics. This movement was iniated
by the American Dental society, and
since it is true with teeth as with any
thing else, that "stitch in time saves
mine" 1t can not be said TO be en- eff
fort to increase the sum total of dem
/ tai work, except as it impresses upon
the people the value of care for the
teeth, which impression should be
made as matter of hygine and pub
lie health.
Undoubtedly much general ill
health and much specific disease have
their origin in neglect of the teeth.
A family physician who does not adj
wise proper care and prophylaxis of
the teeth and mouth as much as he
does other hygienic measures, is not
performing his duty as physician.
1T is only recently that the Importance
of examination of children in the pub
lie schools for eye, ear, throat and
other troubles, as well as for acute
and contagious diseases, has been rec
ognized and in most large cities has
been established. This is being done
by regular medical inspectors appoint
ed by the boards of education. The
almost equally important dental ex-
animation is being inflated by volun-
teers, but we may reasonably expect
it to develop the creation of per-
manent staff of dental inspectors. 1t
took the army and navy a long time
to realize that care of the teeth of
enlisted me is of great Importance,
AMI to appoint regular lental surgeons
to the service. Yet men enlisted in
the service must have sound teeth
at the time of enlistment, while there
is no such requirement for pupils to
enter the public schools.
Medical examination and conse-
quent treatment and operations, have
rendered normal thousands of child
rem who seemed to be mentally de-
fective, but were merely suffering
from physical handicap. This is
likely to prove true also with dental
examination and treatment. A child
with poor teeth may be as badly
handicapped as one with adenoids. In
initiating this reform the American
Dental society has done a great public
service. Other cities and towns should
mot lag behind in taking it up.

HUNGRY SUNDAY HITS CAPITAL.
IN STOMACH
Many Complications Follow Closing OF
Eating Houses by inspectors
(Statesman)

Boise suffered from its first "hun-
CRY" Sunday yesterday. and this, add
ed to the weather when made it hot,
and the law which made it dry"
made things interesting for the in
habitants who have to dine in public
places.
The cause of it all was the state
health department. BY the time that
inspectors M. s. Parker and j. B.
Wallis had finished their two days
investigations at midnight, Saturday
might, there were only two hotels, two
cefeterias and two of the high class
restaurants open for business on Sum
day. All of the rest of the eating
houses in the city were being secured
at Spotless town rate.
Meanwhile, Parker and Wallis took
a short rest, then girded up their
loins and went forth to do battle with
other alleged insanitary places.
Some of the restaurants closed yes
1terday are ordinarily considered as be-
| ing good eating hocses, and the raid
of the inspectors spread reign of
terror among restauranteurs.
Not counting the inferior cheap
chop houses and "beanerIes," the
health officers made eight places shut
up shop on the Sabbath. The chefs
and cooks were replaced by husky
scrubbers with lye-water, cleaning
powder and grease killers.
Fun in Cafeterias
AS a result of the dirt campaign,
hundreds of people had a hard time
filling that long-felt want of the in
ner man. Possessors of meal tickets
who had gone broke Saturday night
with that complacent assurance that
they could eat Sunday anyway, set up
an awful howl. The hotel dining
rooms and grills that were left open
did a rushing business, profiting by
the penalties imposed on their unfor-
tunate fellow-bonifaces In the cafe
terias, scores of men who had never
done the "stand up straight, Fido"
act before, marched up with the hard
ened old offenders and held their lit
tie trays up for the pretty girls to fill.
On account of the ignorance of the
newcomers, considerable confusion
resulted, as each one had to learn the
cafeteria combination, and many of
them missed the keyhole.
One effect of the raid was to drive
hundreds of hungry folks out to the
resorts at oan early hour, SO that big
crowds rushed to Pierce Park and the
White City in the moring, securing
hot and cold lunches at the former
and regular menus at the latter place.
Public's Cheerful View
There was general protesting
dWOHS lue pTOprleIOTS VI ClOSeu rest
aurants who had prepared to handle
the usual Sunday crowds. The public
took whatever inconvenience was at
tendant upon the raid with the fell
ing that it paved the way for cleaner
and better foods in future. But the
concensus of opinion was that the in
spectors ought to carry out their raids
in the middle of the week, and not
wait until late Saturday night to close
up many places, thus crowding the
few restaurants left open, and putting
the community under a hungry"
Sunday ban.

TESTING FISH SCREENS

Local game warden G. L. Braley
and Assistant State Game Warden
Kendall spent last week at Salt Lake
and other Utah points Investigating
screens for use in canals and bitches
to keep the fish from going down the
artificial water courses, where they
become stranded and die.
The screen that seems most likely
to be adopted is one that revolves
and takes the trash with it but ex-
cludes the fish. Dine of them is being
tested at Boise and when decision is
reached as to what kind of screen is
best they will be ordered installed in
all bitches.
The following article taken from
the Statesman throws further light
on the subject. ...
With Their return of Assistant State
Game Warden Kendall from Salt
Lake this week, some definite plan
will be decided upon by the game de-
partment to save millions of fish
which are destroyed every year in
floating out into irrigation bitches,
which, when they dry up, leave the
fish to die upon the fields or in the
beds of the bitches.
Mr.. Kendall has been In Salt Lake
for several weeks past and has been
Investigating a revolving screen which
allows the debris, which would natur-
a stream, to pass over, while the fish
ally accumulate at any obstruction in
are kept in the main stream.
Complaints are coming into the de-
partment from every section OF the
state against the prevailing custom of
allowing the fish to die by the thous-
ands in the fields which are flooded
by bitches drawing water from fishing
streams.
The farmers themselves are help
less to remedy the situation under
present conditions. Those who care
sufficiently for the preservation Of the
fish sometimes place screens Of an
ordinary variety over the intake OF
their bitches with the result that the
leaves and grasses clog up the stream
and they do not get their just share of
the water.

stop to a nice little Yannigan
game at the ball park yesterday,
when he tried to slide into the

he couldn't get up. The boys gath
