long ago it was noticed that a dozen
stones near the center of the arch
were loosening and threatened to fall
into the river. An inspector was at

also prohibited and early next morn

GOSSIP OFTHE COURTS


The inheritance of King Alfonso. Of
which / had occasion to speak a cOu-
pie of years ago. has resulted in will
contest before a French court. In 1911
there died in an asylum of Braque-
Vile, in France. M. Albert Sapene, a
wealthy land owner of Montauban,
near Toulouse BY his will dated
three years before, he bequeathed TO
King Alfonso XIII of Spain, all his
possessions, as well as his titles and
dignities as noble. The testator's sis
ter and natural heir on learning of
the will, opposed it's probation. At
the same time she made an appeal to
Alfonso to renounce the legacy His
advisers urged him to decline to give
up the bequest and the question of the
legacy recently came up for judgment
before the tribunal of Saint Gaudens,
in the Haute Garonne district of
France.
Counsel for the plaintiff in an
amusing speech. which was punctu-
ated with loud laughter in court ad-
vanced the thory that NJ Sapene, if
not demonstratably insane at the mo-
ment when he made the will GER
tainly was SO before and after that
date. and could only be put down as
unbalanced and a megalomaniac. At

TEAM wouk AND r,ruoID,

That was cheering news the State
Board of Health gave the people the
other day, when it announced that pop
ular teamwork had overcome the initial
handicap of a bad season. and had
ductior In typhoid fever this summer.
We call this tribute 10 the good
sense Of Virginia. Tho people have
seen that this disease of filth is the
outcome of careless ignorance. They
have come to understand that it can
only bc eradicatcd when every family
unites TO enforce sanitary precautions
In this knowledge they have gone to
work and have brought about in five
years Statewide reduction in typhoid
fever which is probably without an
equal in the history of the country.
OF course. If we are TO hold what we
have gained, we must not relax in the
vain belief that we have done enough
We must rather continue and improve
our methods OF stamping out this mon
ster Of disease. The slightest let-up
will mean more typhoid.
But there is a more cheerful side to
the problem. If scanty precautions
have accomplished such remarkable re-
suits why should not moro effective
measures put an absolute end TO ty-
phoid? If in four years we have re-
duccd the reported number OF typhoid
cases from more than 1000 TO about
5000. why be satisfied with 5000? Sir
William oslcr declares, and rightly.
that tho typhoid rate is the index to
a communities real civilization. Shall
we rest satisfied until our rate is the
lowest. or shall we he content to lot
500 people die of the disease every year
