Guarding AGAINST
outbreak OF fever
Mr.. Ellison Says Water
Supply Should be Made as
Perfect as Possible
MANY PATIENTS
FROM OUTSIDE CITY

Secretary Ellison, of the Board OF
Health, reports that the city is prao-
tically free of typhoid fever. There
are a number of typhoid fever patti
ents In the hospitals, however.
among patients who have come from
the rural districts The cause Of
20 much typhoid fever in the outlying
districts is mainly due to careless
ness on the part of the people. Secre-
tary Ellison says that when there Isl
any doubt as to the purity Of the
drinking water, il should be boiled
Shallow wells in the vicinity of
closet vaults and cesspools should be
avoided Places which take their
drinking water from streams. which
receive drainage OF outnouses or
from buildings should likewise be re-
garded with suspicion. In general,
artesian or deep-driyen wells should
be given the preference
Garbage should be kept in tight.

either by some uniform method Of
collection made BY neighhorinr
former or by burying in the ground.
In the latter case, small quantity
ol earth should be strewn over the
garbage as each deposit Is made. A
garbage heap forms an ideal spot for
the feeding and breeding OF flies. the
latter being most active agent In
the transmission of typhoid fever and
other diseases.
Secretary ellison says another mat

public bathing beach and using some

For the first time In the history
OF the local Board OF Health, the

property owners and tenants to cut
weeds along the pavements. In eases
where the owner refuses or neglects
to cut the weeds they are cut by the

United Press staff Correspondent.
LONDON, Aug. 12-The first great
battle of the war is believed to be in
progress. The German enveloping move
ment directed against the Belgian center
and designed to give clear passage to
Lille began with a forward cavalry
movement. While General Won En-
mich's three corps continued the invest
ment Of Liege, trying TO reduce the for
tiheations by means Of heavy siege guns,
another German army crossed the Meuse
River near Tongres and is advancing
toward Waterloo and Brussels This
army is believed to be attempting to
pass the northward OF Namur and to
trap the allied army now there between
two German armies, one operating from
the north and another operating through
Belgium and Luxemburg,
The French War Office, in admitting
the opening Of the battle SAYS the Ger
mans are attacking Tirlemont, 25 miles
east OF Brussels. Ii saws the Belgians
are resisting cnergetically and that the
attacking force Is made up OF infantry
Will 0tANN dttAitlA NNpHbllt
The Maestricht correspondent of the
Amsterdam Telegraph wires that heavy
artillery fire has been heard throughout
the day from the direction Of Tongres,
the correspondent adding that the con
cussion was felt in Maestrchtn This
indicates that the German artillery en-
gagged is the crack krupp batteries on
which it is known the German general
staff IS pinning it's hopes for victory. 1t
is considered very probable that the al
lied army, heretofore reported as hav-
ing been massed at Namur, has now been
moved forward to aid in the defense Of
Brussels.
The military experts here agree that
The German army operating against the
Belgians and French in the Belgian
LuNemburg district numbers fully one
million men. 1t is accepted that the
German general staff, despite the re-
pulse at Liege in the earlier attacks, is
adhering to its original plan Of cam
paign for the capture Of Paris.
The censorship is rigidly enforced
Not a single word of the movements of
the British army or navy is obtainable.
While it seems certain that British
regulars are in action in the defense of
Brussels, official confirmation Of their
number or Of the regiments is not OBJ
tainable here.
That Germany has taken advantage
of the lesson given by the Belgian aero
corps, which in a series Of flights across
the German lines at Liege located the
troops for the forts, is shown by the
admission that German airmen have
flown too high to be reached by the aero
guns and are believed TO have located
the positions of the allied armies.
