MAYORS SALARY
rs MUCH TOO HIGH

GLOUCESTER CITY, N. j.,
July 15.-Members of the city
council are being appealed to by
taxpayers and others to take the
necessary action before the next
annual election to fix the salary
of the mayor according to the city
charter, which orders that 1t shall
be $3.50 per year.
The present salary, under a
resolution of the city council, is
$1,000. 1t is the claim of those
behind the movement that the
salary is too high for the office,
and some of the members of the
council have expressed themselves
in favor of the change.

Two Boys Prove
To Be Heroes

Albin Gustavson, aged Is, liv-
ing at Goth and Puget Sound av.,
is alive today through the her o.
ism of Horace Wright, son of ex-
Mayor George p. Wright and
Charles Delin, aged Is, who res
cued him from the bottom OF
Lake Steilacoom after Gustavson
had struck a snag while diving.
Delin saw the lad lying appar-
emily lifeless on the bottom of the
lake and without waiting to re-
move his clothes leaped into the
water. He missed on the first
dive and made second, catching
Gustavson by the foot and drag
ging him to shore, where Wright
called DR.. Robert Wilson and
aided in resuscitating him.

PORTLAND, Ore, July Is
Portland police today are scour-
ing the city In search for Miss
Nellie Baker, "a young trained
nurse who disappeared from her
lodgings here several days ago.
All her belonl kngs were left at
her lodgings.
Police are also seeking some
trace of Miss Huntington. Miss
Baker left Pendleton, Ore, June
23 for Portland, telling her moth
err and sister, residents of that
city, that she was making the
trip with Miss Huntington. No
one in Pendleton knows such a
woman. One theory adanced Is
that Miss Baker was deranged and
that Miss Huntington is a ficti-
tious person.

Institute to Make Cure for Mad Dog
Bites, is Established on Pacific Coast

BERKELEY, CAL, July Is. -
Under the direction of DR.. Wilbur
A. Sawyer, director of the State
hygenic laboratory at the Univer-
sity of California, a Pasteur in
stitute for the manufacture of
virus used for treatment of rabies,
the disease from which hydropho-
bia is communicated, has been in
stalled on the campus. 1t is the
first Pasteur institute this side of
the Mississippi river.
With the opening of the insti-
tute came a government inspec-
ton by Surgeon Donald Currie of
the United States public health
and marine hospital service.
DR.. Sawyer is assisted by Miss
Esther M. Skolfield, bacteriologist,
and Miss Ruby Cunningham, as
sistant bacteriologist.
The institute consists of two
rooms, one equipped with hutches
for rabbits, the other with drying
closet, work tables and other pr
aphernalia. Extreme care has been
taken to obtain cleanliness, and
excellent lighting facilities have
been secured for the expert WORK
to be done.
The manufacture of this virus
with which rabies is fought takes
several stages. A rabbit is inocu-
lated with fixed virus as the
rabies poison is called, and on the
seventh day it sickens and on the
eighth day is dispatched. The
spinal cord of the animal Is then
removed and placed in a bottle to
dry.
The length of time the cord
dries determines the strength of
the virus In it.

He did not hesitate;
