MRS, JESSE KILLING
VICTIM OF DISEASE
Another Member of the Bill
derback Family Unable to
Resist Infection.

Mrs. Jesse Killing, the daughter,
who has been caring for the Bilder-
back family during it's siege of ty-
phoid fever, today fell victim to the
disease. Worn out by hard work, Incl
dent to the care of the family, her
health was so badly shattered that she
was unable to resist the Infection
With her husband, who has been
sick with typhoid for about two weeks
she was removed today to the home of
the latter's brother, Will Killing,
South Fifth street.
Roy Moneybrake, whose mother is
convalescing from the disease at the
Reid Memorial hospital, remains in
practically an unchanged condition.
William Bilderback, the grand
father who was compelled to quit
work owing to his weakened condi-
ton caused by the strain of caring for
the members of his family, is gradu-
ally growing weaker and is expected
to contract the disease at any time.
Now that Mrs. Killing is no longer
able to care for the family, there is
no one left to attend to the duties of
the household. There is a nurse sup
piled by the Penny club to care for
the little boy and his aged grandpar-
ents, but she can scarcely be ex-
pected to care for the home

NESTOR UNCONcERNED.

Assai!ent Still Confined in City Jail.
Donald Nestor, who is confined in
the city ja, pending the outcome of
Richard Cooks injuries, caused when
Nester stabbed him in the temple with
a pair of scissors still remains uncon-
cerned about his victims condition.
Chief of Police Gormon said he be-
lieved a small piece Of the steel from
one of the blades still remained in
Cooks head An examination of the
blades which were removed from the
young mans skull showed that the
point was broken a fraction of an inch
from the end. Chief Gormon said per-
sons who had the scissors before the
fight say the point was unbroken.
Corporal Abbott, army recruiting
officer, was a personal friend of Cook
in the army. Cook was a member of
Company c. Fifteenth infantry, and
Abbott was a member of Company B
of the same regiment.
Cook was known to almost every
one in the regiment because of his
athletic skill" said Abbott He was
great ball player and basket ball
player. l do not believe that during
the two years l knew him in the Fiji
teent infantry, he had a single fight
while others in the regiment had fights
every day. He had a reputation of be-
ing a good fellow and his main trou-
BILE was that he was too good hearted.
Il believe that there is no possible
doubt but that Nestor stabbed him
while he was not expecting it. l am
sure that Cook did not threaten Mes
tor, because If he had been of that
nature it would have been shown in
the army life.
Being athletic. Cook was exception
ally quick. If Nestor had given him
any warning or if he drawn a knife on
Nestor he would have expected an at
tack and Nestor would never have
stuck the scissors in his head. Cook
would have been too quick for him
Cook was such a good ball player
that after he had received honorable
discharge after three years Of service
in the Fifteenth infantry, they re-en-
listed him for special service so that
they could keep him on the ball team
at Jefferson barracks in ST Louis. He
was a splendid all-around athlete"

BLAMES SOCIETY
FOR FULL PRISONS
Rev. w. o .StOvall Says Per-
sons Higher Up Should
Help Convicts.
CONDEMNS LOCK STEP
More Attention Should be
Given Educational Fea-
lures of Prison Life.

Society is largely responsible for
conditions which force thousands OF
men, women and children of the coun-
~ TO spend years of their lives in
the prisons, said Rev w O. Stovall
at the First Baptist church yesterday
morning, speaking on the thirtieth
anniversary of Prison Day
"People used to say of Dante, the
author of Inferno, when he went about
the streets of his native city, There
goes man who has been through
hell" said Rev. Stovall. The same
might be said of the men who have
been in our prisons The prisons of
all our institutions retain the stamp
of barbarism.
THE theory that there is a criminal
class has been exploded" he said, by
comparative study of the heads of
great men and criminals. The low
brow is not the sign of a wicked man
of low morality. The responsibility
for crime rests upon society. Society
sanctions ard makes possible circum-
stances which make the criminals,
filling the PRISONS
Sore Rorn Deficient.
He pointed out that many are de-
fcient at birth horn of parents from
whom only deficient children could be
expected. These unions are made
with the approval of society and the
law, he said. whose blame it is when
the child goes wrong, and is sentenced
to punishment
breeding crime and vice" he contin-
ued. Homes in the best residence
districts of the cities are maintained
on the profits from property owned in
the tenement sections. Since society
allows these conditions to exist it is
societys fault when the men living
under them become criminals"
Prisons would remain barbarian and
harmful, instead of helpful, he said
as long as the convicts were taught
things which would stamp them for
the rest of their lives. Once forming
the habit of walking lock-step, a man
is marked for life The stripes, he
said, were a mark of humiliation the
world over.
Prison authorities, he said, we're
making a mistake by not allowing out
side persons bent on the uplift Of the
convicts to communicate with them.
Purpose to Reform.
More attention should be given to
the educational features of prison
life, according to Rev. Stovall. It's
purpose should be to reform and not
to punish alone An ex-convict now
comes out of prison Inundated and
with a deep-seated contempt for So
ciety and it's ways, he continued.
Through it all. he said, there was a
note of encoura cement for the church
workers. A New York Judge who
passes upon the cases of thousands of
by offenders has made a record, which
shows that of $4,000 who have appear
ed before him, $4,000 never attended
a Sunday school service. Though
the progress may seem slow, Rev. Sto-
vail said, no work was more sure of
its results than that of the Sunday
school.

Miss Kesley, secretary of the stud
ent volunteer work in connection with
the work in foreign mission fields, has
been a visitor at Earlham since Satur-
day, Sunday night she spoke before
the Y. w. c. A. meeting and today
she delivered a short address in chap
ell, calling attention to the great needs
in the fields of China and India.
Men of ali professions are needed
in the work, she said. The opportu-
nifty for a medical man to do good
work is evident when we learn that if
the United States had as many doc
tors in proportion to China, there
would be just thirty-five in our coun-
try, with only one physician for the
whole city of New York. The work is
not easy, but it is Gods work.
