IMPROVE RAILROAD
SURVEY OF HORSESHOE BEND IN
THE HILLS.

Lead, March 23.-Instrhctions for
a survey of the Northwestern horse
shoe curve at B%lacktail, between
Lead and Deadwood, have been given
by the state railway commissioners,
who were in session here last week
with citizens OF Lead and members
of the Commercial club. The meet
ing was called here, in an attempt to
take measures making il possible for
the Northwestern line to run stand
ard guage trains into Lead. in view
of the mammoth Elks convention. to
be held here in June. The road con
tends that standard guage trains can
not make the short curve at Black
tail. al attempt years ago when the
Northwestern first ran into Lead,
having failed On the initial run.
Since that time ii is said the cars
running into Deadwood are at least
90 feet longer than some years ago,
making it impossible. The Lead ag-
gregation believes the curve can be
modified, and that Lead, being the
foremost city of the Hills. it justifies
the running of standard trains into
the city. since the heavy freight traf-
fic greatly exceeds that of Deadwood
and other cities. The Elks will run
several sleepers into Lead in June
and If ii is possible the Lead Com
mercial club desires the main line to
convey the Elks directly here. The
controversy is hanging fire.

TYPHOID fever
THROUGH PHYSICIANS 1T IL DIS
TRIBUTFD FREE TO SOUTH
DAKOTA PEOPLE.

Vermillion, March 23.-Typhoid
vaccine manufactured by the state
health laboratory at the University of
South Dakota is ready for distribu-
ton through the physicians of the
state or South Dakota. to whom it
will be supplied free of charge. DR..
Mortimer Herzberg advises the use
OF this vaccine wherever the likeli-
hood of typhoid infection exists.
The vaccine is made according TO
the method and formulas used by
United States army experts. Elk
.|cellent results have been obtained
with the vaccine as a preventive of
typhoid in the army.
South Dakota is among the first
states to give its citizens typhoid vac
cine service. Typhoid vaccine was
first used during the Boer war, but
with only slight success at that time.
Methods have been perfected until
as long ago as 1912 United states
army records indicated that an in
dividual who had not been v%accirated
to prevent typhoid ran eighty-three
times as much risk of contracting ty-
phoid as one who had been yaccinat-
ed against it.
The manufacture of the vaccine at
the South Dakota state health lab
oratory was undertaken after DR..
Herzberg inspected the health de-
partment work done in New York,
Philadelphia, Chicago and other
large centers of population in the
east.
