CHANGE IN Weather

More Wilmingtonians Are
Suffering From the Dis
ease Than Since 1888
ALL THE CITY
DOCTORS ARE BUSY

More Wilmingtonians are now suf-
fering from grip than at any time
since the winter of 1888, when an cpl
iemic held the city in its grasp for
several months and causes numerous
deaths because victims failed to take
their illness seriously.
Recent weather, which has been
termed by physicians as "wretched.'
is responsible for the wave OF sick
ness. and while il is impossible to es-
innate the number of men, women
and children incapcitated by grip.
nearly every practicing physician Is
kept busy treating patients.

81 have been unable to take my lunch
con at home because Of the spread Of
grip. Fortunately a majority seem TO
be recovering now, and it looks as n
the epidemic will have been checked
within the next few weeks
The sudden change In the weather
is said TO be the principal cause of
the epidemic. When the mercury
descended and Wilmington had its
FIRST taste Of winter, the cold caused
many to bundle themselves up too
lightly and then discard excess cloth
ing as the day became warmer. Moth
ers. fearing their children would take
colds. caused their homes to be heat
ed. even az the expense OF ventilation,
and the result was, in many cases,
that they contracted grip.
Physicians say the illness is sell
dom fatal unless victims fail TO take
proper care OF themselves. II CONF

LARGE ACREAGE OF
PUBLIC LAND IN VALLEY
SUBJECT TO ENTRY

A law passed by the last congress
just prior to adjournment, allows APP
plications for 32O-acre homesteads
to be made from any locality, which
has land of the character specified
by this act, without regard to wheth-
err the land has been designated by
the secretary of the interior as sub
ject to the Enlarged Homestead act.
This law permits homestead appli-
cations for $50 acres to be made
from anywhere in this valley that
the land is not irrigable from any
known source of water supply at
reasonable cost. The local land Of
flee will receive applications for 800
acre homesteads which will be for
warded to Washington for allowance,
as the local Office is not permitted
to pass on these. The filing fee for
$50 acres Is 1922.
The application must be for land
that Is non-irrigable, non-mineral
and has no understandable timber and
Is not In the forest reserve, and the
affidavit of the applicant must be
corroborated by two witnesses who
know the land. Persons now hold
ing or who have proved up on 800
acres of land under the homestead
and desert land laws are not eligible
to apply under this act. The re-
quirements as to residence and cul-
tivation are the same as under the
three-year law. These entries can
not be committed.
The local land Office at Del Norte
will receive such applications. but
as particular form of affidavit is
required 1t is suggested that appli-
cants, as far as they are able, make
their applications in person at Del
Norte with two witnesses who know
the land, as that will avoid mistakes
that usually take some time to cor
rect.
There are probably 100000 acres
OF land of this character in this dis
trict, A map of the entire district
showing all of the vacant land will
be mailed on receipt of $500. All
Inquiries will be promptly answered

DENVER SELECTED AS
HEADQUARTERS FOR
RECLAMATION SERVICE

In accordance with the modern
plan of administering the govern
ment's business from bases located
more nearly in the vicinity of the
move the executive Offices of the
reclamation service from Washing
ton to Denver.
This year the reclamation service
is to spend $14,00O,OOO on it's prof.
ects. and this fund will be distrib-
uted out of Denver. 1t is probable
that all the accounts of the entire
service will be audited in Denver,
and the fiscal agents will likely
come there The total cost of all
the reclamation projects authorized
is 100000, 900, and what remains
to be spent of this vast sum will be
disbursed from the local headquar-
tiers when the change is made.
The establishment of the Western
headquarters of the reclamation SER
vice in Denver is due to the recon-
mendation of Sydney B. Williamson,
who, since his appointment as chief
of construction, has been planning
for Capitalization of work of the
service. He wanted the headquar-
tiers in place where they woulu be
convenient to the Zig projects under
way. and Denver, with it's railroad
facilities and its supply depots, was
finally picked by him.
Franklin X. Lane, secretary of the
interior. at first favored Salt Lake
City as the place for the main head
quarters but Williamson convinced
him that Denver was more favorably
located.
The order of Secretary Lane is to
be effective in ten days and Chief
Engineer Davis and Chief of Con-
struction Williamson are to be in
Denver in ten days to bring about
the shifts.

been trying during the last week to
avoid general battle across the
failing. Field Marshal Won linden
burg's advance from east Prussia
has been effectively crushed, espec-
tally in the northern curve Hard
frost now helps the Russians as the
attacking side.
In the center General Eichorn' S
army, retreating as a beaten force
from the Nieman, was partically
pierced on Monday by reason of
the cavalry somewhat south of the
region between Mariampol and Aug
ustowo. Besides a great quantity of
transport captured during the dis
orderly German hurry westward, the
Russians found scores of laden wag-
ons deserted on the plain. The Ger
mans had taken all available horses
and motors from the supply column
to help the artillery get away quick
err There are no Germans now near
the Nieman. Their foremost position
is held by single corps of Cen
eral Bulow's army, which is guarding
such guns as are still exchanging
fire with Ossowetz fortress.
This determined expulsion Of the
Germans from the northeast has been
followed Immediately by wide activ-
ity from the southern border of east
Prussia. The outpost forces on both
sides are hotly engaged all the way
westward from the frozen woodlands
around Volno, where the Russians
from Lomza have taken several hun
dred prisoners, to a new position at
Dobrin. where a strong German COL
umn from serpec attempted to seize
the crossroads there.
