REEK WITH TYPHOID GERMS
Or. G. W. Stiles States Large Per Cent.
of Bivalves on New York Mar.
ket Are Bred In Sewage.

Washington, D. CDR. George w.
Stiles of the department Of Agricrl-
ture has prepared comprehensive
bulletin showing that large percent
age of the oysters dumped into New
York market are bred in sewage-pol-
luted waters and reek with typhoid
germs. The bulletin will be published
in few days.
DR.. Stiles devotes chapter of his
work to 1877 cases of illness he traced
from oysters dredged in Jamaica bay
last fall. DR.. Stiles gave the Jamaica
case as but one instance, and as proof
positive that oysters carry typhoid
germs when improperly bred.
The bulletin covers an investigation
of the oyster dredging business in the
vicinity of New York and New Eng
land. and by charts and bulletins it
shows that millions of oysters are
bred and fioated in waters which are
used as outlets for the human refuse
of New York and the cities adjacent.
The bulletin condemns such practices
as being most dangerous to the health
of the communities.

father, a fine looking man, was hum
BILE bee keeper. Nature though she
had given the child little wealth in
money, had endowed her with Jet
black hair, beautiful brown eyes and
exquisite teeth.
One Christmas eve when she was
only twelve years old a French sculp.
tor named Renaudot saw her in st.
Peters and was struck with her beau.
ty. Some time afterward he met her
in the country riding on a donkey be
hind her father. That decided him;
he introduced himself to her family
and fell hopelessiy in love.
When the girl was fifteen years
old his friend Henri Regnault made
the 5eauty's acquaintance and asked
her to sit to aim as Salome. The pic.
ture finished, he migrated to Spain
and Morocco and finally met his death
fighting in the war Of 1870.
"Renaudot had also left Rome to
take part in the war, in which he
greatly distinguished himself. and on
peace being signed he hurried back
to Rome to marry Maria Latini She
was then seventeen years old and he
was thirty-six"
Renaudot's health did not permit
him to pursue his career as an artist
for many years after this His last
work was Diana the Huntress,"

spite the anxiety his weak health
gave bis wife, it was she who was the

John Armstrong ChaIoner Gets Az

Washington.-John Armstrong Cha
loner member of the Chaloner
family Of New York, who is legally
insane in that state, although legally
sane in Virginia, says he has received
message from hell through his de-
ceased friend, Thomas Jefferson Mil
Ter. Chaloner, who lives at Merry
Mills, Va, came to Alexandria to get
the message from Miller.
Chaloner says Miller informed him
that Hell is more an affair of the in
tellect, will power and aspiration than
merely combustion" and that the tenn
perature is OF the nature of our tenn
perate zone. Thus Chaloner quotes
Miller:
In hell, morality is as enthusiastic
ally and scientifically taught as mathe-
matics and physics at any university.
Justice rules, but it is untempered by
mercy"
Chaloner says Miller declared that
on arriving in hell he found himself
to have been Marshal Ney in life. He
had assumed his stature and features,
and had conversed with Napoleon
Bonaparte. who later appeared before
him in tAD costume Of Michael An
cello. Again Chaloner quotes Miller:
ION reaching here. the first sensa-
ton experienced was that Of awaken
Ing after a sound and peaceful sleep.
When l opened my eyes what did
behold? Napoleon Bonaparte sitting
apon a throne the like of which never
before was SEEN"
