TYPHOID Turks IN WELLS.
United States Geological Survey
Issues Reprint of Report on "Un-
derground Waters for Farm
ITu.

The rural sections, long consider
ed ideal SO far as concerns the
health of their inhabitants, have
been dealt a blow by physician in
vestigators who maintain that two
thirds of the cases of typhoid fever
in the city owe their origin to insani-
tary conditions in the country and to
polluted water supplies
Farms, which are generally re-
mote from towns, cities, or other
areas of congested population,
would seem to be almost ideally sit
uated for obtaining pure and whole
some water, but in reality polluted
water is exceedingly common on
them and typhoid-fever rates are
| usually greater in country districts
| than in cities. Typhoid fever is now
almost universally believed to be
| transmitted solely through drink or
| food taken into the stomach, and is
/ especially liable to be communicate
ed by polluted waters obtained from
shallow wells near spots where the
/ discharges of typhoid patients have
! been thrown upon the ground and
| subsequently carried down through
| the soil and to the wells, and it is
| doubtless principally this fact that

common in farming regions.
On a great many farms the well
is located at a point that may be
convenient to the dwelling, without
any regard for the possibility of the
pollution of the well water through
seepage from barn or cesspool or

| derground. Information relating to

MRS. AMELIA ALLEN DIES AT II
YEARS.
Widow of DIR. w. f.. Allen Passes
Away at Clifton Springs Sani-
tarium.

Mrs. Amelia c. Allen, widow of Dr.
w. E. Allen, of 512 North Washing
ton avenue, Scranton, died Thurs
day morning at l o'clock at the
Clifton Springs sanitarium, Clifton
Springs, N. Y. Mrs. Allen was aged
seventy-one years.
With her at the time of her death
was her daughter and sole survivor,
Miss Julia c. Allen.
The funeral was held Monday
morning at 1890 o'clock from the
residence Rev. j. D. Skilton, of St.
Lukes Episcopal church, read
the service, which was private
Burial was made in the family
vault at the Forest Hill cemetery
Mrs. Aliens death has been mo-
mentarily expected since two weeks
ago last Sunday, when Miss Allen
was called to her bedside. For the
past year she has been confined to
the sanitarium with a combination
of complaints, which, with her ad-
vanced age, served to end useful
and beautiful life. On July 5, her
seventy-first birthday, her mind be-
gan to fail and from that day to the
hour of her death she rested in a
comatose condition.
Mrs. lien was born in Athens, Pa,
July 3, 1S41, the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Nathaniel Clapp. Mr.. Clapp
was a contractor of fame, having
built the Bloomsbury railroad. Mrs.
Allen was married to DR.. w. E. AL
len in 1865, to which union was
born one daughter, Miss Julia c.
Allen.
Through the days of unrest among
the miners, and days of struggling in
new community, Mrs. Aliens char
acter was a force for good. Her life
was one of devotion to her husband,
who was destined to become one of
the most celebrated physicians and
surgeons of the state. For forty
five years DR., Allen practised medi-
cine in Scranton, sixteen of which
he served in the chair of health Of
ficer, and in all this time Mrs. Allen
was the influence that prompted
many of the charitable acts that
have long thrived in the memory OF
the earlier residents of that city.
Left a widow nine years ago, Mrs.
Aliens health began to fail. Her dy-
] ing words were for her husband, be-
side whose body she was laid to
I,rest.

would be revised in accordance with
that doctrine and whatever protec-
tive elements they p0w have would
be totally eliminated. If the Demo-
Gratis believe as they say they do that
the government has no power to
levy a protective tariff, how can they
conscientiously refrain from adjust
ing all customs duties to a purely
revenue basis just as soon as the
opportunity comes? 1t is evident
that the tariff will be the issue
alright and before the campaign is
over here in Pennsylvania there will
be many of the hero worshipers
who are now suffering from hysteria
will have regained possession of
their senses.

WHO KILLED ROSENTHAL?

Rosenthal, the gambler of New
York City, who on the eve of going
before the grand jury of that state
to confess that he, as a gambler,
paid heavy toll TO the police for
years, was shot to death on the
street by a gang of hired assassins.
Rosenthal knew he was a marked
man ever since he decided to give
evidence before the grand jury but
he hardly expected fate to act under
such circumstances. The question
now arises: Who killed Rosenthal?
The Ditrict Attorney says that the
blame can be laid at the door of the
police department. The police say
it was by his rivals in the business
who feared the disclosures he was
about to make. Some of the as
sassins have already been caught
and other arrests may clear up the
mystery. 1t is a fact that gambling
has been going on in New York city
for some time under the protection
of the police and the direct cause
of Rosenthaps death will probably
be found to lie at the door of the
police department, who feared their
little graft would be endangered by
the disclosures and perhaps a prison
term would be their lot. If there
has been graft it will come out in
the investigation this week. A great
city is not likely to exist without
crime but it is hardly to be expected
that the police force are in league
with the criminals.

TARIFF TO BE THE ISSUE.

Mr.. Oscar w. Underwood, chair
man of the Committee on Ways and
Means, recently expressed the opin-
ion that the leading issue of the
campaign will be the tariff. No one
disputes the fact for it is very evil
be foremost in the November cleo
ton. 1t is also a grave question,
one that every American should let
sink deep into his consciousness, and
realize that when he votes next No
vember, he votes not for the man
who represents the party but for the
principals that man advocates. He
must also realize that he must vote
for or against the fiscal system un-
der which our country has pros
pered for the last four years. The
personalities OF the men must be
considered, but those things appear
less strongly in the foreground than
does the issue that confronts every
one. Under the present admins
tration the country has prospered.
Tariff taxation is intimately connect
ed with the business of the country
1t protects the home industries.
Everyone bears evidence of the
many incidents of the flight in
prices when articles were put on the
free list.
Woodrow Wilson is a man of ad-
mirable qualities and we have no
doubt he would make an excellent
administrator if it was not for the
fact that he is a free trader. He is
the choice of the party which is at
war with the protective tariff prin-
cipal, and which is the persistent
enemy of our manufacturing inter
ests. He has even proclaimed his
conviction that, "the Federal Gov
ernment under the Constitution has
no right or power to impose or col
lect tariff duties except for the pur-
pose OF revenue" and therefore, If
the Democratic party should come
into power as a result of the No
vembeT election, the tariff schedule

Gated at Skinners Falls, and unjoint-
ed its structural appearance some-
what. The place is said to be very
attractive" but that may not be the
reason why the electric bolt left it's
mark there. Those directly inter-
ested in the business welfare of the
place are asking the Erie officials
for a depot at that point along the
Erie lines known now as SINNERS
Falls. Passengers and business traf-
fic have but meager accommodation
there now and passengers have to
pay on the trains to the nearest sta
tion to get ticket. For freight and
express matter it is very inconvenient
as it now is. 1t is a good location
as a drainage point for farm products
both on the New York state and
Pennsylvania sides and it would be
to the interest of the Erie company
to give their patrons at this point
better facilities all around.

ANENT PROGRESSIvEs.

VIII there be great commotion
Where the new converts convene.
Should they find the same old colonel
Placed again behind the screen?
Will they use the same old taffy,
Or will they it all eschew.
Or just plate the lame old party
And call it progress new?
Will they fire all the lame old lead
ers,
Or to come give progressive pass
Into their new convent laden,
Or plate them progressive brass?
Will they hitch their lame old horses
To that bent old whiffle tree,
And then try retrieve their losses,
Down at Steeltown on the Perkinsee?
They can now not call on Bryan,
To them lend a helping hand,
Having just led Woodrow Wilson
Up toward the promised land.
They must now call on the colonel,
LaFollette for crooks won't stand.
He might attend their funeral,
Still shake progressive Wilson's

not the prime factor. Your children
can run and play at liberty on your
own property, while if the dear little

trespassed on the rented ground the

stamping his fiat foot or shakes his
big fist at you. Get away from these
inconvenience by purchasing your
own home.
