Illness of German Emperor Causes
Cancelling OF Court Ball
Wednesday.

Berlin, Feb 13.-The indisposition
of Emperor William apparently is
more serious than has been indicated
in the official announcements, though
it is insisted no anxiety concerning the
outcome is felt. The first bulletins
described his majesty as suffering from
a cold but with the absence of any
fever. Subsequently it was admitted
an attack of feverish influenza had
been experienced. Today it is stated
the emperor is up after two days in
bed, but that he will be confined to
his chamber until the end OF the pres
ent week. The court ball set for We'd
nesday night was cancelled.

TELLS OF TYPHOID
Menace Arising From Polluted
Drinking Water Discussed
in U. S. Bulletin.
HOW TO PROTECT WELLS
Country Districts in More Danger
From This Source Than Cities.
1t Is Declared.

The menace of typhoid fever in coun-
try districts-a menace arising from
polluted drinking water-is thoroughly
considered in a report by Myron l..
Fuller, of the United States geological
survey, in which the various sources
of pollution are indicated and sugges-
tions are given for means of protec-
ton.
TyphOid-feVer rates are usually
greater in the country than in cities,
despite the prevailing belief that
farms, isolated as they are from areas
Of consesJed population, are ideally sit
uaJed for obtaining pure and whole
some water,
Failure 10 protect adequately the
wells III 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 the faulty protection. Chemical
analysis is not rated high by Mr.. Full
Ter as cans Of detecting polluted
water. f, e asserts that a careful
common-s,-:- inspection of the dis
trict is usuaH- much more to the point.
RADIUS or DANGER ZONE
Sources OF pollution in the vicinity
of a well or spring should be noted
wherever possible, and drinking water
should not be drawn except at a safe
distance from them. The distance re-
quired for absolute safety varies
greatly with the character of the rock.
For wells sunk in sandstone, slate, and
shale. 100 feet may he sufficient;
where the surface stratum is composed
of fine sand 200 feet should be allowed:
and where IT is limestone or granite
much greater distances will be neces-
sary. Water may run polluted in lime
stone for miles. so that wells in reg
ions where limestone makes up the
greater part of the surface rock should
be carefully examined after rains for
mud and floating matter, as these are
pretty sure indications of pollution.
SUGGESTIONS FOR PROTECTION.
For protecting wells. springs. and
cisterns Mr. Fuller advocates, first of
all. a water-tight lining to keep out
surface water. Wells and springs
should always be covered and protect
ed from animals, dust and falling
leaves. Watering tToughs should al
ways be located a safe distance away, .
though the custom prevails in the
country districts OF having well and
trough side by side.
