ious than the little negroes who dug
into the graves fortreasure, no one
would have been disturbed by the
affair

sort OF superstition that makes some
people in low countries think they

tetanus and one or two other germs
medical science to-day is agreed that
disease germs which affect humans
only originate and breed in humans

live and breed on plants, in the earth

UNKNOWN NEGRO

IN CHICAGO CASE

Chicago, Oct. Acting on instruc

negro, instructions were given the po-
lice today as Follows: Arrest for
murder and robbery copper-skinned
negro, five feet, II inches, or siv feet
tall weighing 1870 TO 1870 pounds. Well
.dressed, square shoulders, erect car
riage. Wore black soft hat and gray
coat
After giving up her position as a
school teacher in Mason City, Iowa,
September 20, Miss Leegson came to
Chicago and engaged room with
Mrs. James p. Burnette, saying she
vas going to try to earn more money
1o continue her art studies. Saturday
she placed an advertisement in a pa
per- asking for a place as a trained
nurse.
Saturday afternoon, a telephone call
came from a Mr.. Wilson" who,
when told Miss Leegson was out, in.
quired closely after her personal ap-
pearance. An hour later he called
asain and asked her to go point
on the west side to care for his wife.
She left to answer the call and was
not heard from again by her friends.
The street address given by "Mr.
Wilson," proved to be vacant lot on

believed by them to offer solution OF

the teachers at the University of Chi

made by President Wilson yesterday
on his anti trust program for the De-

outside of the official circle who have
been studying the problem for years.

man Newlands was of a general char
acter, bringing forth no particular

tion Of holding companies. stock
watering and discrimination in prices,
the regulation of the size of business
and the definition of the word ''rea-

PROHIBITION CAUSES
STRIFE IN COLORADO.

Denver. Colo, Oct 7--Alexander
Nisbet commissioner of safety, an
nounced today that under the supreme
court decision declaring the soliciting
of orders for liquor in dry territory
illegal, he would stop the delivery of
intoXicants in dry wards in Denver.
This policy, if carried out. will pre-
vent siXty-one drug stores in dry
wards obtaining supplies of liquor and
will also prevent the delivery Of in,
toxicants by brewers and grocers to
private patrons who happen to live in
wards where the sale of liquor is pro,
hibited under the local option law
Nisbet says he interprets the decision
of the court as meaning that the resi-
dent of a dry ward must buy his liq-
uor and carry it home himself
