Finn THREATENS
NEW TAFT MOVE

PITTSBURGH, Sept, Ex-senator
Finn has declared war on the pro-
posed Lincoln party, announcing that
If the Lincoln party is formed sthe
twent@-four Roosevelt electors Will
not resign from the Republican ticket,
thereby giving Roosevelt t~wenty-four
and Taft only fourteen of the electors
running on the same ticket with the
President.
State Chairman WATSON, too, is
bitterly opposed to the movement,
and issued this statement:
Formation of such a party with a
Taft electoral ticket and opposition
to the Republican State ticket could
be of no help to the Presidents cause,
and in my judgment would seriously
weaken his entire vote"

Houston, Texas, Feb. 21.-Fire
which broke out here at o'clock this
morning spread rapidly and within a
short time a number of industrial
plants and hundreds of homes were in
ashes. A score of persons were in
jured, none seriously, while the prop
erty loss is estimated at s5,000,000.
Swept by high gale the flames
leaped from house to house and envel-
oped factories with lightning-like
rapidity. The burned area is from
one hundred and fifty yards to half
mile wide and from one to one and
half miles long.
In the race for life women and men
seized their children and fed to the
streets. In some homes the sick were
compelled to fee with the rest AS the
flames advanced an army of night clad
men advanced before it. Finally the
homeless were compelled to get be-
hind the flames.
In the factory district 10000 bales
of cotton in warehouses were burned,
besides the factories.
Although it is still burning az Z
O'Clock this morning, the flames are
well under control.
The fire started in two-story frame
structure on Hardy and Opelousas
streets and spread to feed store,
then to three boarding houses, the
Star and Crescent Hotel being next.
Among the plants destroyed were
the following:
McFadden warehouse.

The fire was raging in five blocks
within an hour after its inception.
The cedar stored in the Hudson
pencil factory caused such intense
heat that it drove the men back to a
bluff just above Buffalo bayou, a mar
row stream, and was the scene of a
battle royal against the flames. The
flames leaped over the bayou in sew
eral places, but were finally checked
at this point.
Two hundred and fifty homes were
destroyed.
The fire destroyed the Industrial
rice mill and Southwestern rice mill,
the two plants being valued at $780,
900. Forty-five thousand bales of cot
ton in the Cleveland compress and Nc
Fadden warehouse were destroyed.

HEALTH NOTES.

DR.. William II. Davis of Boston gives
the following interesting facts and
figures on the comparative mortality
of bottle-fed and breast-fed babies.
The Doctor tells Us that during the
siege of Paris, in 1901 when the milk
supply of that city failed, the mothers
were compelled to nurse their babies;
as a result the baby death-rate fell
from $50 to 40 per 1000 births. Also,
in England during the Lancashire cot
ton famine when the mothers remained
at home and nursed their babies there
resulted a still greater saving of infant
life. And so throughout the civilized
world wherever a large percentage of
the mothers nurse their babies the baby
death-rate is low. Norway and Sweden
are notable examples with low baby
desth-rates respectively of "A and IS
per 1000 births.

DR.. W. G. Ebersole of Cleveland, in
a paper read before the recent Inter
national Congress of Hygiene and
Demography at Washington, D. c., de-
clafed that the mouth was the most
neglected and in-kept organ of the hu-
man body. He asserted that the neg
leeted and iIl-used human mouth was
responsible for more i'll health and loss
in working efficiency than any other
organ or all other organs Of the body
put together. As an advocate Of the
teaching Of oral hygiene in the public
schools he urged the Importance of
teaching the children the proper care
and use Of the human "grinding ma
chine 'i-tha MOUTHS being the best
sort of prevention of many Of the dis
eases and ailments peculiar to child
life. In view of the fact that medical
examinations Of school children show
that fully 81 per cent with diseased OF
detective mouths, there is no denying
the Importance Of teaching our children
how to care for their teeth and to keep
their mouths clean.
