rats to be found there at present.
Other cities have undertaken the
same campaign that is to be begun in
Virginia soon, but have had only in
different success. During the pres
ence Of bubonic plague in San Fran
cisco it was clearly demonstrated that
rodents were an important factor in
spreading the disease. In that city
there was a wholesale campaign Of
poisoning along the water front, while
a bounty was paid for rats killed over
the city, and after an organized three
months campaign of warfare against
the rats the pest was considerably
abated. DR.. Grove believes the boun-
ty plan would work out best in Vir-
ginia. Poison set out might be got
hold of by domestic animals and could
not be satisfactorily used at most
places about town.
In the meantime the citizens Of the
city generally who have ideas on how
to get rid Of rats will find any sugges-
tons along that line that are feasible
welcomed by the city health depart
ment.
It is probable that the bounty plan
will be adopted and will be in charge
of the employees at the city incinera-
tor plant.

CAMP AIN To- RID CITY
HE PEST OF RODENTS
Health Department viii Take Steps Calculated to Meet Local
Stuation-Od Garbage Grounds to Be Burned Over and
City May Be Asked to Authorize Reward for Rats Killed
and Brought to Incinerator Plant

To rid the city Of Virginia of the
pest o.: rats, which has recently be-
come so aggravated as to require spec-
ial attention in the estimation of the
city officials and members of the
health department, systematic CAM
paign looking to their determination
is shortly to be undertaken. 1t will
be outlined at special meeting of the
health board to be called by DR.. J. II.
Grove in short time.
Mayor Murphy brought the matter
up at the meeting If the city cou.1cil
Tues.ts,. evening, and it was referred
to the health department.
Rats have only recently made their
appearance in the city. Three years
ago rats ware an unknown quantity
on the iron range. Today they are
numerous in Virginia and Eveleth and
are appearing in Hibbing and other
Of the range towns, while the pest has
nowhere reached the proportions it
has in this city.
At Tuesday nights meeting Of the
council while the matter was under
consideration citizen suggested that
the old garbage grounds be burned
over. He said it, was a prolific breed

mated that there were several million

FATHER POWER
CETSFDNE GIFT
People of Virginia Parish Give Him
Fully Equipped Overland
Automobile

FIR. w. J. Power, pastor Of the
church Of Our Lady Of Lourdes, Vir-
ginia, received handsmoe present
from the people Of his parish last
Sunday when a committee appointed
to make the presentation drove fine
Overland automobile to his home and
presented it to him. There was no
formal presentation speech and to say
that Father Power was surprised
would be stating the case mildly.
The machine is one of the hand
soonest Of its kind in the city and is
a sincere testimonial Of the respect
and esteem in which Father Power
is held by the people of his church.
1t was purchased during his absence
at Marquette, Mich, on a visit to his
parents and it was decided to present
it to him upon his return and has been
ready for delivery since the first Of
last week.
Father Power came to the local
parish several years ago. Since that
time his fine personality and manly
Christian character have endeared
him to all who know him within and
without his congregation. He is
generally esteemed by all the people
Of Virginia and the gift did not af-
ford Father Power more pleasure
than did it's giving to his people.

COUNCIL WINS
BALL GAME
Mayor Murphy Pitches Gilt Edge Ball
and City Boards Go Down
to Defeat.

The city council won handily from
the city boards at Oliver park last
Sunday in their annual baseball game
for charity. A good crowd saw the
exhibition and thoroughly enjoyed it,
and over 5000 was the total of the
gate receipts.
McCulloch and Anthony were the
batteries for the city boards and May
or Murphy and President Boylan were
up for the city council. The mayor
pitched great baseball and there was
nothing the matter with the receiving
end as interpreted by President Boy
Ian. The score was seven to six.
The grandstand was kept fully
amused throughout. President Boy
Ian electrified the attendance by fall
ing on his head while attempting to
catch long throw at the plate, May
or Murphy threw the ball away q
time or two at first base and was
roundly roasted by his team mates.
Alderman NOLAN and Alderman Nc
Chez introduced the turkey trot in base
running and City Attorney Morgan,
City Clerk Bicdord and Assistant City
Attorney Giblin showed brilliant
flashes of form and had a good deal
to do with the councils victory. Bick-
ford pulled down a long fly in the left
field off the bat of Chief of Police
Rice that looked like a home run from
the road. Chairman Coffey of the
police and fire commission showed the
pople some real fielding in left for the
team and pranced about like a spirit
ed colt ina clover lot. Frank Hughes
didn't have much to do but he did that
well while Peter Matchefts starred
with the stick for the city boards.
City Engineer Johnson and Assistant
City Engineer Keith Maitland had q
considerable part in the victory for
the council. J. w. Murphy, in center
field for the city boards, had = mishap
or two and is nursing = dislocated
finger as the result of his efforts. All
the others contributed their full share

AT H1BB1NG NEXT SUNDAY

The Mohamis will close the ball
season Of 1913 at Hibbing with the
Hibbing ,baseb.lt team next Sunday.
One more game may be played in Vir-
ginia, but this is not certain. The
Mesaba Trolley league did not go
through the season, but the aibbing
team has been leading the organiza-
ton with the Mohamis second. indie
pendent baseball did not prove pay

CANADIAN NORTHERN TO BE
ASKED TO TAKE UP SPUI

At Tuesday nights meeting of the
city council City Attorney Morgan
was instructed to take up with the
Canadian Northern the matter of re-
moving its spur track at the passenger
depot. Mayor Murphy stated that
residents of Lake Boulevard were still
complaining Of the smoke and noise
nuisance and alleged that it was more
aggravated than ever, claiming that
recently bad order car was set out
on the spur track and that car repair
ers working about it made it impos-
sible for residents of the boulevard to
sleep. Local officials of the Canadian
Northern posted bulletins a week or
more ago instructing employees not to
park cars on the boulevard spur or
allow switch engines to stand there
during the day or night. They have
been doing everything possible to com
ply with the request of the residents
Of the boulevard to abate the smoke
and noise nuisance complained Of.

DOCTOR LOOKS
VIRGINIA OVER
Representative of State Board of
Health Finds General Sanitary
Condition Good.

DIR. w. F. Green, one Of the staff
of field physicians Of the state board
Of health, finds the general sanitary
conditions Of the city Of Virginia good,
the arrangements for sanitation, with
the exception of a portion of the Sec-
ond ward, where waterworks and sew
er extensions are needed, excellent and
the general supervision of the city's
health satisfactory after spending a
day here the FIRST Of the week and
looking over the town with DR.. Grove,
the local health officer.
DR.. Green may spend some time on
the range looking over range cities
and inspecting them with regard to
sanitation. He came to the range TO
make an investigation Of the cpl
demic of diptheria prevalent at Au-
rora and gave the schools of that city
a careful inspection Monday, taking
more than 500 cultures from the
school children, which will be SUBJ
mitted to the state bacteriologist for
examination.
There are at present quarantined
at Aurora about Is cases of Dip
liberia. The disease has manifested
itself in a mild form and there have
been no cases Of the virulent type
developed.
Several cases of typhoid fever have
been developed in Virginia within the
past two weeks and the health de-
partment is taking every prccaution
to prevent the spread of the disease.
All are being taken care of at a
local hospital and all the patients are
reported as doing nicely.
Virginia has annually had several
cases Of typhoid fever, but the most
careful investigation has never been
able to fix the sources of contagion.
Local physicians are convinced for
the most part that the origin of the
cases is outside the city. It is not
anticipated that any considerable num-
Der of cases will be developed here
and the health department is exercis-
ing extra vigilance over the city's
milk and water supply at present.
