CITY WATER is PURE
Prevalence of Typhoid in Moscow Not
Due to Present Water Supply.

That the citywater is in no way
fever that has been prevalent in Mos
COW for the past few weeks is the con-
clusion at which Professor w. R.
Wright of the bacteriology department
of the university has arrived through
a thorough analysis of the water. At
the request of a number of residents
of sections of the city in which there
have been several cases of typhoid this
fall Professor Wright made an examin-
alton of the city water taken from the
pipes at the university and found no
indications of typhoid bacteria or any
other ase-breeding garms.
The water, says Professor Wright,
appears to be absolutely free from
sewer contamination and If faulty
sewer connections in any section of the
city have been the cause of the fever
the trouble can in no way be traced
through the water pipes. Professor
Wright discredits the commonly ac-
cepted theory that sewer gases arising
from leaks in the sewer pipes in some
of the resident districts have been
productive of typhoid, stating that this
foul-odored gas alone, injurious as it
may be in weakening ones power OF
the fever, cannot produce it.
Professor Wright is swat the fly
and believes that most of
the fever that has broken out in Mos
COW can be traced directly to the fly
pest. He has commenced second
analysis of the city water and will
make weekly tests at the university
during the remainder Of the fall.

CARS RUN AT INDIANAPOLIS
First Time for a Week but Strikers
Exhult Over Success and Trouble
Expected.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov S.-Cars are
running today for the first time in Il
week, but as a result of the strikers
success more serious danger is threat
ened. The danger developed in a
strike throughout the state in tying
up interurban traffic.
The traction company's helplessness
to face the strike and the evidence OF
an overwhelming public opinion in ia
vor of the men was surprise to the
union organizers who began organizing
the interurban crews quickly and
found them in a frame OF mind to re-
spond to the union advances.
Contrary to expectations the inter-
urban business in and out of Indian
apclis WAS not resumed.
Owing to many bitches for the re-
sumption of work on city lines, fur
ther trouble is feared. The troops are
still being held here. A strenuous eff
fort is being made to settle the com
plications without upsetting the ar
bitration agreement
Interurban cars were permitted TO
run into indianapolis this afternoon
pending the adjustment of the griey-'
ances between the motormen and cen
ductors and the directors of the var
ious lines. Labor leaders said an |
agreement, similar to the one which |
settled the local strike, will be signed

Federal Judge Frank S. DIETRICH has
consented to conduct a recitation by
the second-year class in evidence at
the university next Friday afternoon.
The class consists of a dozen or more
students and recitations are conduct
ed in the same manner as cases are
heard and decided in the courts of the
state Each case that is studied is
assigned to couple of students in
the class, one taking the defense and
the other the prosecution. Testimony
is introduced, arguments submitted,
and verdicts are returned by the jury
which is formed of the other members
of the class.
Heretofore formal procedural meth
DDS have not been employed in the law
school except in the thirdyear course
in practice, but the innovation in the
study of evidence that has been in
troduced in the second-year work
has been doubly revolutionized this
year by Dean Ayers through the in

but also of new case book
which is being rapidly adopted by law
schools throughout the country.

SACRED CANTATA
WILL BE GIVEN
ST. MARKS CHURCH CHOIR WILL
PRESENT 1T NOVEMBER
18TH. ,
Funds Raised From Splendid Enter
tainment Offered VIII be Used to
Buy Pipe Organ.

On Thursday evening, November 13,
at s o'clock, the choir of st. Mark s
church will present beautiful sacred
contata entitled, THE Daughter of
Jairus." The composer, Sir John
Stainer, founded the work on the IA
miliar narrative in the New Testament
and chose and adapted his text from
the several accounts in the Gospels
| The music is extremely difficult and
of rare beauty. A detailed analysis OF
the ten numbers of which the cantata
is composed will appear in subsequent
issues of this paper, and those inter
ested are urged to read the informa-
ton before attending the cantata on
Thursday evening.
Without question next Thursday eve
ning's program will be the important
program of sacred music ever offered
to the supberb solos and recitatives
sung by eleven of Moscows most pop
ular soloists, there will be well
trained chorus of 35 voices.
Preceding the cantata the choir and
rector will give the regular vesper
service and prayers in song, beginning
with splendid professional. The eve
ming will close with the benediction
and the recessional. The audience will
be asked to remain in their seats un-
til the recessional is finished.
The funds raised at this time will
be devoted to the purchase OF much
needed pipe organ for st. Marks
church. St. Marks has the largest
and best choir in the city. Their in
creasing numbers and the difficult |
music they constantly present require
a better instrument than the small reed |
organ now used. Every lover of
music and every person who desires
to encourage any earnest effort to
raise the standard of musical taste in
Moscow, should be present on Thurs
day evening, November 13, at 8 o'clock.

Only two conference football con
tests in the northwest series were
staged today, o. A. c. and the Univer-
sity of Oregon mixing and w. S. C.
meeting Whitman. Idano is taking a
three weeks lay-off to get ready for
the game with Whitman next Satur
day and Washington is getting two
weeks rest to get into shape for her
biggest battle of the season when she
is to meet the University of Oregon on
the 18th.
The w. S. C-Whitman game that
was played this afternoon at Pullman
attracted considerable interest on the
part of Idaho fans and big delegation
from here went over to watch the
fight. Practically the entire varsity
football squad witnessed the game
from the sidelines and it goes without
saying that the Idaho warriors kept
their eyes open to get a full-sized idea
of the tactics employed by the Mis-
sionary eleven whom they are to meet
here on the 18TH 1t is safe to say that
Tdaho's sympathies were with Whit
man though few expected her to wi
he game.

Last nights presentations illustrat-

of the old English wording in which
the plays were originally masked
The text of abraham and Isaac was
a translation by Miss Gladys Col.irs
