parchment challenge, which Is con-
sidered almost certain TO fall.
When court ~reconvened today the
state was trying It's hardest to elimf-
nate Frank Frakes, a farmer, who
has been passed by the defense for
cause. He inclines to the theory
that gas destroyed the Times build

ing his best to keep this juror, as
Frakes insisted he had no opinion
and never had read much or talked
about the case. His brother is a
member of the Plasterers' Union, of
San Francisco, and for this reason
the defense is trying desperately to
keep him seated.

man her husband forced a door,
which 1t is declared Goldberg had
previously locked. The husband

incident That fastened the Success Of
Telephones In England.
Following the establishment on o
solid basis of the American telephone
system, work for European exploitation
was early begun, The results were
hardly encouraging.
Five-eighths OF the British rights
were purchased for $500 by q Provi-
dence man, says the National Maya
zine. After working In London four
months he could not find any n who
would put a shilling In the telephone.
An English review said OF 1T: ''The
telephone Is little better than a toy.
1t amuses the English, but Is inferior
TO the well established system Of air
tubes"
The victory was won at last by Kate
Field. who sang kathleen Mavour-
neen' over the telephone to Queen
Victoria, The queen was delighted,
asked Bell If she might buy two tele-
phones, and 1t was not long before
all England was interested. An ex-
change with ten wires was opened in
London, and In April, 1879, Theodore
Vail sent an order to the factory in
Boston in his terse, characteristic way,
please make 100 hand telephones for
export trade as early as possible"
In the Italian Alps, IN the peak Of
Monte Rosa, is the highest telephone
IN the world. Strung at the order Of
Queen Margherita, It took six years to
complete the connection between the
top OF the mountain and the queens
apartments In Rome.

RICHMOND FREE
FROM TYPHOID.
Health Work Achieves Signal
Triumph in Capital
City.

Richmond, Va, May:27. For
the first time in its history, so
far as the official records show
there is not a single case Of
typhoid in this city. From the
remotest suburb to the most
thickly settled streets, there is
not a person suffering from. the
disease.
Following the announcement
of this condition this morning,
officials of the State Health
Department rendered their con
graulations to DR.. T.. @ Levy
of their City Health Depart
ment, and Or. Enn,on q. VIII.
liams, gave out an interview in
which he loudly applauded the
results gained in Richmond.
Or. Levy's achievement, 3"
he said, may very properly be
regarded as the most signal
triumph of health work in the
State. Our records and the rec.
ords of the old Board of Health
disclose nothing like it. This
great victory for better health
and increased happiness has
been gained rs n result of long
continued and exacting effort,
and it is to be primarily at.
tributed, ] think, to the extern.
sion of the city's sewerage sys.
TEN and to the care taken in
providing sanitary outbuildings
III those parts of the city which
have not been severed.
"In addition, the city's care
in inspecting every case of ty-
phoid as soon as it is reported
and in instructing the family in
the proper precautions has un-
doubtedly prevented the spread
of the disease.
"What Richmond has achiev.
cd Ia n splendid advertisement
for the city and should incite
every city and town of tn,
Commonwealth to like effort:
The Big Stone Gap post. [volume] (Big Stone Gap, Wise County, Va.) 1892-1928, 1911-05-31

to time for the prosecution of
violations of the law, etc. IL is
expected that one or more
counsel will be employed in
each county to represent the
club and assist the Common
wealth's attorney in the prose
cution of otTenses. The laws
with reference to game and fish
Will be summarized, published
and posted throughout the dis
trict, so that none will remain
in ignorance thereof, and re
wards will be offered for the ar
rest and conviction of violators.
In addition to this, it is expect
ed that Game Wardens will he
appointed in all the counties.
The club will also take active
steps to obtain fish from the
United States fisheries for the
purpose of restocking the
streams.
Mr. J.F Bullitt, Of this place,
was elected president of the
club, d. f.. Allen, treasurer, and
George H. Taylor, secretary.
There was not enough members
present from the different conn
ties TO 20 into the election of
vice presidents, and, therefore,
a nominating committee was
appointed for the purpose of
communicating with the differ
emit counties aud choosing vice.
presidents who are to serve for
the first year. This will be done
at once, and as soon as it is
done the charter will be obtain
ed and the organization com
lpleted, and, then, those who
continue to dynamite and sein
for fish and put saw dust in the
rivers, may expect TO hear
something drop. The members
iof the club ut this place are en-
| thusiastic, and from letters re-
lceivcd from numerous persons
throughout the district, it. is mp.
parent that the other counties
ARE equally interested. When
the people thus get behind the
law, the law will be supreme.
