OF themselves and suffered a RELAPSE.
the disease finally resulting in pneu
monia.
Take to your beds with the first
symptom OF the disease and remain
there until your physician tells YOU
to get up is the admonition of local
physicians.
The parents of dozens of the pa
tents have arrived in Pullman to
be with their sons, but all the visit
ors have found good lodging places
through the assistance of Mrs. Ellen
II. Bake, secretary of the home
service section of the Red Cross, who
has met every train to escort the
anxious parents to the bedsides OF
their sons. Many loyal citizens have
given the use of their automobiles
to assist in the work.
All indications today are that the
epidemic is well on the downgrade.
and very probably very few, il any.
further deaths will be recorded. 1t
can be safely said at this time that
Pullman has met the condition with
characteristic thoroughness and the
flu germ is gasping and dying.

"No deaths last night, II very
noticeable falling off in the number
OF new cases at the college and no
increase in the total number of cases
in the city" This announcement by
city health officials yesterday was
the first bright ray of hope in the
exceedingly dark Spanish influenza
situation which became alarming last
Sunday and continued with undated
fury until Wednesday evening, when
the situation began to clear almost
as abruptly as it had cast it's dark
shadows over the community early
this week.
Almost superhuman efforts were
required to check the ravages of the
disease, but expert medical, skill,
painstaking care, careful organiza-
ton and the closest cooperation of
all concerned triumphed after four
days of the hardest kind of fighting
and the crest of the epidemic is
thought to have been safely passed,
The first death from the dread
disease came early Sunday morning,
when Lawrence Chauncey Pierce of
Bridgeport, succumbed to pneumonia
superinduced by influenza. Pierce
was a member of the second training
detachment and was ready to depart
on his second lap of the journey to-
ward Berlin as soon as he had re-
covered. The body was shipped to
Mansfield, Wash.
Monday four deaths were record
ed, these being Thad Seaborn Wylie
of Seattle, Orion b. Riddell of Ia
coma, Charles II. Hardy of Grant
City, Mo-, and Miss Ida Littleton.
Wylie and Riddell were members OF
the second detachment while Hardy
came in with the third group of men
this month Miss Littleton was an
employee of RobinsOn's bakery, and
had been suffering from the disease
only a day or two. The body of Mr..
Riddell was shipped to Sumner, that
of MIR. Hardy to Grant City, Mo-, and
that of Mr.. Wyliie to Seattle. The
body of Miss Littleton was taken to
Oakesdale by Undertaken Bruning OF
ColfaX
Tuesday morning two deaths were
recorded and a third Tuesday after
noon. Frank Maynard Colcord was
former instructor in the college OF
agriculture at the State College and
was a member of the vocational sec
ton of the S. A. T. c. His body was
shipped to Greenyille, Ill. Sergeant
Harry Hartman of Walla Walla sue
cumbed early Tuesday morning and
the body was shipped to McMinyille,
Ore, his old home. Sergeant Hart
man had received an appointment TO
an officers training school just prior
to his illness. Tuesday afternoon
David A. Roy of Dayton passed away,
the body being shipped to his home
town.
Three deaths were recorded on
Wednesday William Edmundson OF
Seattle. an employee of the college
farm. succumbed early Wednesday
morning. His body has been shipped
to Fayetteville, Ark. Richard h
Juvinall of the S. A. T. c. passed
away at the Episcopal church during
the morning and the body was

BOLOGNA" TO MEDICAL LAKE

Bologna" Pullman's pioneer
Chinaman, was last Thursday COM
mitted to the state hospital for the
insane at Medical Lake, following a
hearing at Colfax. The aged Celes-
tial had for some years been show
ing signs o. failing mentality, and
his condition had been growing rap
idly worse during the past few
weeks. Following his commitment
TO the state hospital local authori-
ties visited his shack and put to
death half dozen dogs and as many
cats, which had been "Bologna's"
constant companions.
