LOUD HAS A BILL

Herbert Loud, an attorney who is
one of the candidates for the munich
pal judgeship, has drawnsa bill which
he will endeavor to have submitted
to the legislature at it's present SEES
sion. The bill covering the sale and
carrying of pistols and revolvers: It
will prevent, in the future, he hopes,
much of the shooting which has been
done in many Of the sections of this
state.
Mr.. LIQUIDS bill says that a per-
son desiring to carry revolver, au-
tomato pistol or pistol, shall make
application to the Judge of the dis
trict court of his county, the appli-
cation describing in detail the par

Occupation and name: It makes it
necessary to have the application en-
dorsed by two resident freeholders
of his election district. After a sat
isfactory examination by the Judge,
the clerk Of the district court may
be authorized to issue license in
duplicate, which license will provide
for description of the weapon pur-
chased, and which license shall be
issued for fifty cents.
"No person shall give, sell, loan or
in any manner dispose of to any per-
son not in possession of license, any
pistol, automatic pistol or revolver.
A person making such transaction
shall insert in the blank provided
therefore in such license a full de-
scription of the property, together
with the date of sale, and shall, with
in twenty-four hours Of such sale

CHURCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH.
Latter Demands a Great Deal of the
Former Agency.

"No social agency is more earnest in
its demands upon the church for coop
GRAFTON than public health, and no agen-
cy offers a greater return for such CO.
operation" says DIR. Ennion w. Will
liams, health commissioner of Virginia,
in bulletin just issued by the United
States bureau OF education. Public
health asks the church to join hands
with it in giving men better bodies, and
it promises that when mems bodies shall
be stronger, their spirits will be nobler.
Public health asks the church to assist
it in making sanitary the community 10
which the church ministers; and it
pledges the experience of the world to
show that when this is done, none will
benefit more than the church. Other
things equal, the healthy man is the
moral man, and the sanitary communi
ty is the spiritual community.
"The first means of cooperation on
the part of the church is in preaching
the dignity of the human person, the
sanctity OF the individual body. This
will enable the church to justify the
health officer in his demand for sani-
tary community-will, indeed, make
that demand irresistibly logical. II the
body is sacred, then the body deserves
a sanitary surrounding and depends

THINK GIRL OF 10
TYPHOID CARRIER
Nineteen of Twenty-Five Children at
Springfield, Mass, Are Stricken
With the Disease.

Springfield, Mass, Aug. 81. Nineteen
of the % children at the Deane orphan.
age at Longmeadow have now developed
typhoid, and the authorities announce
they believe that a typhoid carrier" is
responsible for the epidemic. This con
elusion has been reached after a detailed
study of all the water and milk sup
plies of the institution.
Cora Crosby, 10, the first typhoid pa
tient at the .orphanage, is supposed to
be the carrier" of the disease, and She
has been removed to special ward in
Springfield hospital, where she will be
isolated and kept under observation UNI.
Til all traces Of the germs have disap-
peared from her body.
Seven trained nurses are in atteni-
ance at the orphanage. Several of the
young patients are in serious condition.
The three children who have thus far
escaped the fever have been isolated,
but they, too, the physicians believe,
will show evidence of the fever within
a few days.
The suggestion that the orphans may
have contracted typhoid at recent Sun
day school picnic is negatived by the
fact, the officials says, that none of
the other children who attended the pic
mic have been stricken.
The outbreak is unusual on account
of the large proportion of the inmates
attacked and also because of the youth
fulness of the typhoid carrier.

Is Convicted at San Fran
cisco Under the White
Slave Act
IN THE WHITE
SLAVERY CASE
For Transporting Marsha
Warrington Across the
State Line to Reno

San Francisco, Aug. 21.--Maury
Diggs, former state architect of Califor-
mia, was found guilty in the white
slavery. case under the Mann law last
night for transporting Marsha Warning
ton across the state line to Reno,
| Nevada.
The case of the government went to
the jury late yesterday with no attempt
by the defense to prove that Diggs did
not transport Marsha Warrington across
the state line from Sacramento, CAL,
to Reno, New, or that they did not
live there for three days as husband
and wife.
These acts, it was admitted, had been
committed, but they did not constitute
a violation of the Mann white slave
traffic act, because they had not been
done with criminal intent.
In seeking to establish that the trip
made by him and Miss Warrington and
f. Drew Caminetti and Lola Norris was
not premeditated, and that the two girls
had not been induced to take it by
threats of scandal on one hand and
promises of marriage on the other, Diggs
willingly testified to his own misconduct
and the emharrassments, domestic and
business, into which it had led him.
His counsel, in summing up the evil
dence, did not palliate these acts.
Paint this defendant as You will, a
monster if you please argued Robert
Devlin, his senior attorney, "but tell me
what motive he would have had in going
out of the state for the purpose OF ac-
eomplishing those things already accom-
plished"
In view of the contention Of the de-
Tense that no criminally immoral pur-
pose had been proved, Judge Van Fleets
OF the statute was await
ed with interest. On this point bic said:
1.-THE act, so far as here involved,
provides in substance that any person
who shall knowingly transport
IN interstate commerce any woman or
girl for the purpose of prostitution or
debauchery, or for any other immoral
purpose shall be deemed guilty
OF felony and punished as therein
provided
THE term interstate commerce, so far
rs here involved, means transportation
from one state to another.
AS | have heretofore intimated to /
You, it is immaterial what the characer
of the two girls involved in these charges |
was at the time of the acts charged.
IF you find these girls were taken to
Reno by the defendant in the manner
'harged, then the only question remain
ng is as to the intent they were so
aiken. There is a homely adage that
lotions speak louder than words and
he truth of this is quite as applicable
o judicial inquiries as in the ordinary
'ffairs of life"

upon it. The permanenee Of our fight
for better health must rest, in part, at
least, upon an awakened public con-
science which will view disease as second
only to sins cleanliness next to godli-
ness
''The church should, in a very practi-
cal way, illustrate the necessity of sam
itation by being itself a model of sani-
tation. 1t should be well kept, well
ventilated, supplied with proper out
houses and with safe supply of drink
ing water. Many of our rural churches
fall far short of this. Cleaned only
when filth becomes unbearable, yenti-
lated by chance or accident, generally
without any warehouses and supplying
water from a rusty bucket and a dirty
tin dipper, the church oftentimes is a
focus of infection. If it is to stand as
the evangel of good health, it must be
sanitary. Ii it is to preach the gospel
of fresh air, it must be well ventilated"

BoRAx PRODUCTION IN 1914.
Decrease in Output and Value from That
of Preceding Year.

There was decrease in the produc-
ton of borate ores in the United States
last year, according to an advance chap
ter from Minreal Resources on the pro-
duction of borax in 1912, by Charles G..
Yale and Hoyt S. Gale, just published by
the United States geological survey.
The output of borate ores in 1912 was
42,3l5 short tons, valued at sl,l27Sl3,
as compared with $500 tons in 1911.
valued at 81 500, Isl. The quantity stat
ed is that of the crude ore as mined for
delivery at the mill or for shipment
All the borax now produced in this
country is derived from ores mined in
California; in fact, virtually the entire
product is derived from four mines-ouc
in Inyo county, one in Los Angeles
county, and two in Ventura county.
Formerly borax was obtained from the
so-called marsh or dry lake deposits,
which were worked in Nevada, Califor-
mia, and Oregon. The borax and boric
acid now produced is derived wholly
from deposits of borate of lime, in
which colemanite is the entire source
of supply,
ls a gtHEIdA lHlpltssluu Unit
eolemanite has been found in so many
places and in quantities so large in rela-
tion to the small demand for borax and
boric acid in the present market that
there need be no fear of the exhaustion
of the deposits. In fact, however, in
nearly all deposits mining has proceed
ed with great rapidity and possibly in
a more or less wasteful way. Mining
entries are generally driven ahead some
what at random, the pockets of ore be-
ing "gutted" and shipped before atten-
tion is directed to the blocking out of
ore in reserve. If this practice is con-
tinued even the large deposits of cole
mantle now known will not last indefi-
nitely, and the exhaustion of one after
another of the workable deposits is ex-
pected. Since the discovery of coleman
tie in 1902, at least one large district
has been worked out and abandoned.
Even should the richer deposits ulti
mately become exhausted, however, there
are many other possible sources of sup
ply, including the marsh deposits for
merly worked to which recourse could
again be had. More important than this, |

WOMEN REPLY TO TILLMAN.
Suffragists Point Out the Subordinate
Legal Status of Sex in So. Carolina.

New York, Aug. 2l.--I.ocal suffrage
leaders professed to be amused over Sen
ator Tillman's attack in the Senate on
Monday, but they took it seriously
enough to get down their statute books
and look up some of the South Carolina
laws governing women and children to
see whether life there was as lustrous
as the senator represented it.
Senator Tillman's speech is con-
glomeration of words" said President
Anna Howard Shaw of the National
Suffrage association. He gives no facts
or statistics, and every statement dis
proves his contention. | cannot con-
ceive of worse inferno than for any
woman to be compelled to live with
man no longer worthy of her respect,
yet the law of South Carolina requires
her to live with man no matter how
brutal. No married mother has any
right to her child in South Carolina.
Her husband can will it away from her.
A drunken husband may compel his wife
and children to support him and he can
collect their wages or run up bills at
the mill stores which are deducted from
the wife's pay. Many women work for
$3.50 week, and out of 1906 cases in
vestigated only 81. earned $40 or $l2 a
week.
"There is no white slave law in South
Carolina and the age Of consent is only
fourteen instead of eighteen, as it is IN
Colorado, where women vote. There is
so per cent of illiteracy in the state and
only 81 per cent of the children of school
age are in school, The law raising the
working age from IL to Ii was defeated
again last year. Children may be worked
IL hours a day. As matter of fact
very few states have laws as unfavor
able to women and children as South
Carolina's."
