Instead there came q railroad official
wearing a military cap.
I'VE have cholera suspect in the
depot" he said, land we have closed
the restaurant. You wouldn't want any
food from it anyhow. It's better to go
hungry"
We decided that it was better, and
We did. Just as the soldier believes
that there is only one bullet out Of all
the millions of bullets marked for him,
so along the Great white way" you
find yourself believing that out Of the
multitudes Of cholera germs there is
one that bears your name on his back,
and II you can only dodge him, you're
safe.
We went hungry for another two
hours until We came to e station where
no cholera suspect had been. I'm sure
that American soldiers would not be-
have more intelligently or carefully
under the circumstances; in fact, in
rules with recklessness that would
mean almost certain death in Galicia

STRANSKY' READING
SHOWS S|NTELL|GENCE
Interpretation Of Wagner in Con-
cert of Philharmonic Society
Is Notable One.

Unoer the direction of Josef Stransky
the Philharmonic Society of New York,
with Madame Johanna Gadski as tie
soloist, opened its winter season yester-
day afternoon at the National Theater.
With the exception OF the first and
second numbers, Tschaikowskys Sym
phony No. In B Minor, Opus "a,
"Pathetique," and the aria Ocean du
Ungeheuer." from Weber's "Oberon.'
the program was made UP of selections
from Wagner.
While the reading of the symphony
"Pathetique'' was intelligent rather
than expressive Of any romanticism, the
audience probably was just as well
pleased, for in the case of this par
ticular number there is enough of the
personality of the conductor Infused.
The audience heard the symphony OF
Tschaikowsky, rather than an exploi-
tation of the ideas of the director.
One Is inclined to wonder where the
next Wagner singer will come from
after the remarkable stage career of
Madame Gadski is closed, for she has
set standard which will be difficult
indeed to attain.
The first Wagner number was Sieg-
fr1ed's Rhine Journey from "Gotter-
dammerung." The second was the pre-
lude and liebstod from Tristan and
Isolde.'' and the third the prelude from
die ,Meistersinger.' f. E. Y.

Cotton Growers Depend

The value OF winter grain crop

Fined for Keeping Bright
Lights in London Saloon

LONDON, Nov. 25.-For refusing to
obey the police regulations concerning
the lowering or extinguishing of lights.
Edward Nash. a West London saloon
keeper, was fiped SIS and costs. Police
evidence showed that there were three
big incandescent lights in the saloon,
and on the constable telling him that he
had too much light on the premises,
Nash said he would have as much as ne
liked.
London is a city of gloom after sun
set. owing to the determination of the
authorities not to allow hostile aerial
raiders to recognize particular districts

Here was another whitewashed coal

great medical men of Vienna are using
to fight the tiny terrible germs which
the Russian prisoners bring with them
Into Austrfa-Hungary. One minute germ

that one tiny germ must be found and
killed. He's deadlier foe than a
Russian: deadlier than 100000 Russians.

CATARRH VICTIMS

Hyomei often restores health to

breath is becoming offensive, and
constant shifting, discharges from

OBJECT LESSON
IN DRAINAGE IS
ON EXHIBITION

A half pint OF alkali. weighing six
ounces is on display at the office of
Dalton G. Miller of the drainage in
vestigations in the Schiesswohl
building. A placrad explains that
the alkali was secured at the outlet
drain from the Mckinney tract south
of the Indian school in Just IA sec
onds. Mr.. Miller has worked out the
probable content of various periods
Of time from the same flow and his
figures show that pound and 10
ounces goes out every minute and
SO pounds IL ounces every hour. In
twenty-four hours Mr. Miller fig
ures that 2,322 pounds would be
drained out every twenty-four hours
while in the course Of year no less
than 423 tons of alkali would be ta-
ken out of the land.
The figures are small Mr.. Miller
believes, for the flow at the time the
sample was secured is believed to be
less than normal.
II can be easily seen therefore that
drainage as applied to this 1O-acre
tract is bringing the right sort of
results.
The land is a quarter of mile
south of the Indian school buildings,
and prior to drainage was worthless.
A crop of grain is growing on it this

A message dealing with mans life

ence declares that man has been
millions of years reaching his pres
ent stage of development. A look at
men today in the scramble for gold,
power. honor and pleasure shows
that there is much of the ape and
the tiger of the jungle left in him.
Certain orthodox" religious beliefs
tell us that this is because man has
fallen from the perfect state in which
he was made. Adam did wrong and
we all Tell back into the jungle
with him. In the light of scientific
thought 1t is declared that mans
life has been a steady rise In the nm
folding of the high life of the Eter-
nal God. Whatever of the jungle is
left in him is a remnant of the past
not yet surmounted in rise" of his
life. Where is the truth? Is man
