the intestines by themselves they must le swallowed. Therefore they are intro duced mainly through dring and food, which is infected with these germs. (There are certain lesions in sundry or gans caused by typhoid infections intro- duced in other ways)
 5. The way and manner of their intro- duction:
 ta) Water. Water is by far the most frequent vehicle for their introduction. because water is largely consumed as crink, and because these germs may live in water for sometime. and be transported in water for considerable distances, and water is liable to many sources of in- fection-in the house of a typhoid fever patient by the discharge of the patient, in wells and springs by seepage through the soil or by the surface washing; in the lakes, rivers, creeks, etc. by surface water, and shallow springs infected with these germs. They may also be con tained in ice made from infected water. The only explanation of an epidemic Qarge number of cases) is infected water.
 Live In Milk
 tb) Milk. Milk not only affords a ia vorable medium in which they live, but also affords splendid medium, under certain circumstances. in which they rapidly multiply Milk is exposed to many sources of infection. The cows udueF may De contaminated DN mud, dirt. water, filth, etc, infected by the germs :; the mixers hands. the milk bucket, the milk containers. the vessels at the de- pot of distribution, the vessels of the retailer or consumer, may be infected. The water used in all the dairy pro cesses may be infected. Finally there may be infection from accidental causes-flies and other insects as car riers, lighting upon the dairy appara- tus, the strainers, etc.
 Co Food. Uncooked food lettuce. parsley, celery, watercress, onions. fruits, oysters etc, and food which has been cooked and eaten cold--pies. custards, cakes, cold meats, bread, etc, may all be infected with tyhpoid germs through the instrumentality of dirty handling, infected water, dirt or dust which may falf upon these foods and, most important of all. flies, the crea- lures and patrons of filth,wh may load their bodies with typhoid infected filth and afterwards take their dry bath using their wings, head and legs upon cold or uncooked food. some uten- lsil or container, thus cleaning their bodies of their infected filth to be sub sequently, innocently eaten by man, woman or child; or they might take a fee, soft drink, etc, which Is after wards innocently swallowed by the un- tsuspecting victim.

cuse for typhoid fever in cities some go- ing so far as to say that typhoid fever in city is a disgrace and a reflection on its government.
 Typhoid fever is almost worldwide in it's distribution. All races, ages, occupa- tions and hoth sexes are label to the disease, though not equally. The disease prevails mostly in the temperate climates, sumner and fall seasons. Its geological distribution is confined to the human race, under the ordinary sources of infection, but has been produced experimentally in chimpanzees. It is an acute self-limited infectious fever, caused by the typhoid bacillus, discovered by Eberth in 1SS0 This bacillus has number of hair like growths upon it's body. which enables it to move rapidly in water and other fluids. It is quite interesting to watch these active, rarid movements in hanging drop of water under the slide of the microscope.

AUBURN ALUMNUS PAY TRIBUTE ID
 HENRY H. kYSER
Martin J. Lide Gives Sketch of Young Man Who Num- bered His Friends By
 the Hundreds

Auburn alumni were especially shocked by the tragic death of Henry H. Kyser in the fire of last Friday. ular men who ever attended Auburn and delegations from the alumni and from the faculty of the institution will attend his funeral at Talladega this morning at 10:30 o'clock.
 Martin J. Lide. the well known cleo trical engineer was for many years Mr. Kyser's intimate friend and speak ing for the Auburn alumni he paid him the following tribute yesterday:
 "The tragic death of Henry H. Kyser, familarly and affectionately known to hundreds of Auburn men as Sport Kyser," at the disastrous fire Friday afternoon, was sad blow to his many devoted friends.
 "Mr kyser was one of the most lovable characters the writer has ever known and was deservedly one of the most popular men who has ever grad uated from Auburn. He was reared in Ta1ladega, graduated from the Ala bama Polytechnic institute in 1895, was a post graduate in 1896, an instructor in physics and electricity until 1901 and was assistant professor of electrical engineering at Clemson college, S. G., 1901 to 1903. Leaving Clemson college he took q postgraduate course in cleo trical engineering at the University of Wisconsin.
 Here the excellence of his work attracted the attention of the profes- sor of electrical engineering, Dougald on ttlf ing engineer of distinction, and led to his being transferred to the engineer ing office of Professor Jackson in Chi- cago, where he was engaged in spe- cial research work for two years
 MT. Kyser moved to Birmingham about six years ago and become as- sociated with the writer as consulting engineer for a period of about four years. About two years ago he accept <d his last position as technical expert and high efficiency man with the Bir- mingham Railway, Light and Power company, which has eliminated in his sad and untimely death
 Tn physique MT. Kyser was an ath- lete, in disposition he was generous, friendly and lovable; in mind he was the well trained and well stored stu dent, and in character he was a gen tleman of the finest type.
 His distinguishing traits of dispo- sition and character were his untir- ing energy cheerfulness and happiness, his readiness to make and keep friends, his uniform courtesy and kindliness, his extreme modesty, his generosity and unselfishness, his fairness and sense of justice. and his high sense of honor. Gifted and yet modest, modest and yet courageous, courageous and yet kindly. I know of no tribute to his memory more fitting than the last fare we'll to Hamlet:
 "'Good night, sweet prince, and chorus of angels sing thee to thy rest MARTIN J. LIDE."
