Within the last few days the State Health
Department. has resolved notice OF several
small outbreaks of typhoid fever. and has
sent It's experts to the localities where the
t!se'sc appeared in order TO prevent II pos
s!ble. any general spread OF the ma:ady.
IN every instance where much typhoid
fever has been reported the epdemio,ozists
OF the department have been sent without
delay and have oo-operated with the local
health authorities.
Health Commissioner williams yesterday
stated that none of the epidem!cs thus
iar reported was OF serious nature and con
se1ueHt!y he made no public announcement I
OF the Whereabouts OF the disease. The
usual number OF cases, he said. had been
reported from all quarters OF the state,
with tho prospect that the present year
would be an average one In the number OF
cases o! fever.
Thanks to the p-ess Of the State" said
DR.. Williane. the public is tally advised
OF the fact that the department. WILL inves-

plea that the Atlanta prison could

Morse contended that the court
should Ak his status as being a pris.

under hfteen-year sentence in order
that the question as to how much the
sentence should be reduced by good
behavior or when parole might be

Being Happy.

A middle-west farmer afflicted
with asthma was compelled to go
to Colorado for his health. He had
not beer IN Colorado long before
he sold his farm on the fats and
bought a mountain ranch. Return
ing health gave him a liyelier
sense of life. He became interest
ed in farmers institutes and learn
ed much about farming that had
never occurred to him. Back home
he had been content if he paid his
running expenses and netted a
very modest annuity. His first po-
tato crop In Colorado Melted him
1925 an acre, after charging up
current wages for his own labor
and that of his horses, a pratice
which had not been his custom
In the East. He found farmers
who had farmed in Colorado for
thirty years without a single fail
ure of crops. The seasons were
long, and if the farmer failed
properly to water his crops from
his bitches it was his own fault,
He was as sure of his crops as, he
was of his seasons. The wagon
roads were good eleven months of
the year. The soil was nderfRl-
ly rich and enduring in the pro.
perties necessary for the raising
of sugar beets, potatoes, alfalfa,
vegetables, and fruits. Our Colora-
| do friend encouraged some of his
neighbors in the old home to fol-
low his example. Those who
could not live comfortably IN win
ter on the fats found health and
prosperity on the southern slops
of the Rockies. The sun made

PROMOTING REVOLT FROM u. S.

FL Paso, Feb. 14.-The self-exiled
provisional president of Mexico, Fran
cisco I. Madero, is in EllPaso unless
he has slipped out in the last "a hours.
So confident are the United States of
ficials that the directing head of the
Mexican revolution is here that they
had a warrant issued for his arrest.
The warrant was issued by United
States Commissioner George B. Oliver.
The issue of the warrant came as 4
result of the capture of papers on the
person of Martin Casilas, revolution
airy leader as he was returning to
Mexico Sunday from visit to 81
Paso. The papers were in the hand
writing of Madero and were signed by
him. All were dated Feb. IL at FL
Paso.
The warrant charges that Madero
planned an armed military expedition
against a friendly nation and caused
arms and ammunition to be sent into
Mexico from the United States in vio-
lation of the neutrality and the Gus
toms laws.
The United States troops and all
United States federals on the border
have been given orders to make the
arrest. Last week officials in Juarez
issued circular stating that Madero
was waiting in Ell Paso for chance
to enter that country.
This was denied by the heads of the
insurrecto junta here.
Martin Casillas, Mexican revolution
airy leader, wash cid in the sum Of
$1,000 by United States Commissioner
Oliver in default of which he is spend
ing his second night in the 81 Paso
Jail. He was arrested Sunday while
returning to his command in Mexico,
after visit to Ell Paso. He says he
has committed no crime and refuses
to give bonds. He made the mistake
of bringing his rifle to El Paso and
then tried to take it back again. He
also had some revolutionary dispatch
es when he returned.
Navarro is supposed to be 80 miles
south, coming up the railroad, al
though reports in Juarez are that Ma
varro has gone west and will attempt
to get around Orozco without battle.
Three more wounded insurrectos have
been brought to the temporary hos
pital in Ell Paso, indicating further
fighting east of Juarez along the riv-
er. There are now 10 wounded insur-
rectos in the El Paso hospital

Managua Feb. 14.-In some way, at
present unknown, an explosion oc-
Cured in the ammunition barracks sit

les of explosions, which killed three

hours hlazed furiously, further ex-
plosions following in rapid succession.
It is estimated that 1000 rifles and
100000 cartridges were destroyed

IA large amount of ammunition were
saved.
President Estrada and Gen. Luis Me-

notwithstanding that there was immi-

MEMBERS of President Fstrada's family
were removed from the palace to the

sions that martial law was declared
