DISEASE CONTROL HERE
Benefit Of Strict Ban on AS
semblages Shown in Few
Cases and No Great
Spread of Disease.

Only sixteen new influenza cases
were reported to the mayor in the
twenty four hours ending at 10 o'clock
this morning, and during the rest of
the day the prospects became bright
that only few would come into the
report OF the succeeding twenty-four
hours.
This Is almost negligible compared
with an even hundred new cases re-
ported in Quincy in twenty-four hours,
and similar conditions in other neigh
boring cities.
The Keokuk cases now sick with in
fluenza total seventy.seven, and they
are in only sixty homes, several
members of the same family being
stricken in many instances. None Of
the patients are in serious condition
The necessity of the patients keeping
quiet after they seem well. makes the
physicians decline to discharge them
until 1t Is safe. even If they seem to
have been recovered.
Among Our Neighoors.
Carthage is IN good condition, like,
Keokuk it is reported, and no cases
occurred In Carthage college. partly be-
cause OF military authority there, now
in the training school under an army
officer. That city has ban similar to
Keokuk imposed by the mayor.
Warsaw is getting along fairly well
and like Keokul is reaping the bene-
fit Of a ban on assemblages of people,
clamped on early. It~put the lid On the
same day Keokuk did, and before It
knew of the Keokuk action.
But the situation in Quincy is as baS
as ever and really disastrous, with Ia
fluenza in control of the whole city.
In Burlington, only three doctors
reported cases yesterday, while every
keokuk physician reports his cases
regularly to the mayor. Lack Of OBJ
servance of the state board Of health
order about reporting cases, oSscured
the facts in Burlington. but probably

houchakji Freres or New YORK city.
II may be remembered that this cup
was discovered In 1910 by Arabs exca-
waiting In the ruins OF an early Chris
tian church, where II had been buried
since probably the fourth century. A
ID. II consists OF two distinct parts.
an inner silver cup of crude workman
ship. resembling the common drinking
cups OF the time OF the Roman emper-
ors Augustus and Tiberius. and an out
er shell also Of silver OF exquisite de-
sign and workmanship Of the first cen
tury. The most remarkable feature Of
the decoration OF this outer cup is a
series OF twelve figures. which encircle
the cup In two bands. After an ex-
haustiye research the fact has been
established that two Of these figures
represent Christ, the one at twelve
years OF age, the other at the time of
the resurrection. The other ten 1g-
ures are those of apostles, the lden-
tity Of whom Is now accurately af-
firmed
The date assigned to this vessel
seems to leave no doubt that the sculp-
tor was a contemporary OF these spos-
ties. and the individuality displayed In
their Characterization points to the
probability OF these being actual por-
traits taken from life.
Because the figures are small-thr
heads are about three-eighths OF an
inch-nnd can only be properly seen
with the aid Of q magnifying glass. a
replica OF each one is to be etched by
Mrs. Kinney. Six OF these are now
finished. and reveal not only wonderful
skill In the Characterization but also
an accurate correspondence In type to
ell that Is recorded OF the attributes
of the apostle represented. Thus. In
ST. Peter are shown the fiery impetu-
osity OF the short, stubby man OF nerv-
Gus. excitable temperament, while
Thaddaeus shows the refined intelli
gence of a man of good education.
That the inner cup is the actual
Holy Grail" In which the wine Of the
last supper was blessed is not actual
ly affirmed. though the known facts
all point to that assumption. But that
these portraits are the work Of con
to whom the originals were
appears to be a fact estab-
lished beyond a doubt. This makes
these etchings OF Mrs. Kinney's exc
cuted with faithful adherence to the
details OF the sculpture of thrilling in
terst from a historical, religious and
artistic point OF view.
