PRESCRIPTIONS
CAN Be REF|LLED
LAWS MODIFIED TO PERMIT
THIS CHANGE DURING IN
FLUENZA EPIDEMIC

The law which forbids the refilling OF
prescriptions for certain opiates and mar
cotics has been modified temporarily for
the purpose of enabling persons afflicted
with influenza to secure these drugs
without awaiting the arrival of physi-
clan The department asks that the fol-
lowing notice be given wide publicity
"To Collectors of Internal Revenue and
"Others Concerned:
"Owing to the extent of the epidemic
of Spanish influenza now prevailing in
this country and consequent difficulty of
persons getting immediate medical at
tention and medicaments upon prescrip-
tions issued by physicians. the provisions
of article Il of Regulations No. IS, pro-
hibiting the refilling of narcotic pre-
scriptions are modified as follows:
Prescriptions calling for morphine,
coedine, or herein, which are written by
registered practitioners for patients suf-
fering from Spanish influenza and any
pulmonary or bronchial affections, may,
until further notice, be refilled, provided
that at the time of issuance by physicians
instructions are noted in the body of
such prescriptions, repeat if necessary" :"

INFLUENZA SITUATION IN
MOSCOW IS VERY FAVORABLE

Only three new cases of influenza are
reported among the S. A. I. c. men
stlce yesterdays report and eight have
been discharged as cured This is the
best days record since the epidemic
struck Moscow. There have been no
further deaths. The new cases aresvery
mild and many of those who have been
in the hospital for few days are show
ing marked Improvement.
The situation in town IS not so encour-
aging. There are many cases widely
scattered. None are regarded as very
serious, although there are number of
cases of pneumonia. But the people
outside Of the university are not as easily
controlled or managed as those inside
where military rules govern and all must
obey.
An error was made in reporting the
deaths It was stated that three of these
were in class A, or the collegiate divi-
sion of the S. A. T. c. This is an error.
All Of the six deaths of young soldiers
has been in the vocational training or
class B section There are 800 Of these
men here and the six deaths mean a loss
of Just two per cent, which is regarded
as very light There has not been
death in the collegiate section where
there are more than 500 young men en-
rolled

sity. has arranged to give a detailed re-
port to The Star Mirror every day This
is done religiously. Every death is re-
ported as soon as it is learned at the

JEROME PEOPLE
MAKE INVESTIGATION
FATHER OF YOUNG MAN WHO
DIED AFTER LEAVING UNI
VERSITY is IN MOSCOW

On Monday eevning A. c. Alexander,
publisher of the Lincoln Times, at Je-
rome, Idaho, in company with Mr.. r. S.
Frazer of the above-named place, arrived
in Moscow to investigate the death of
the latter's son, who was a student i'll
the S. A. T. c.
From the impression received on the
arrival of the young man at his home,
it seemed to those near and dear to him
that he had not received the proper at
tention and had been turned out from
the school here in sicllly condition.
From what little evidence was at
hand in the community III which the
young man lived they were very much
aroused and a personal investigation was
decided upon that the good people of
that community might know as to what
treatment their boys were receiving at
the hands of the officers in charge here
In an interview with these gentlemen
with Star Mirror reporter, they learned
that they are moro than pleased with
conditions as they find them here In
company Of Capt. Felser and DR. Lind
ley a thorough inspection was made of
all branches of the institution, particu-
larry those in which the Frazer boy was
connected and they are pleased TO state
that they found everything in excellent
sanitary and orderly condition, with no
fault to find in the manner of the treat
ment of the young man from their COM
munity.
Messrs. Alexander and Frazer are
loud in their praise of the treatment ac-
corded them by the citizens of Moscow
who, learning of their errand here, did
all in their power to assist them in their
investigation.

ing received. The returns will be given
to republican and democratic head
quarters. 1t is desired that no large
crowds congregate around bulletin boards
and to avoid this bulletins will be posted
in numerous places Should too large
crowds gather in one place they will be
dispersed by the police.

TRAINED BOTH TO SERVICE
Caused Him to Acquire Use Of
His Second Arm"

Padriac Colum describes A. E.
George RusseIl), the Irish leader
as the only man in history ever to
make reputation as great writer
through articles printed in farm
journal, in the New Republic. He
says:
"a. E." indeed, presents the I'M
usual spectacle of two-armed work
er. Most of the worlds workers aya
one-armed; they grasp the sword or
the portfolio, the pen, the brush or
the chisel with one hand, and the
other, because it has been trained to
no service, hangs lame and limp.
But A. E. is two-armed; with one
hand he paints, writes poems and
sketches the outlines of philosophy,
vast, cosmic and inclusive. and with
the other he leads or pushes farmer
or an artisan toward the co-opera-
1--WE commonwealth.
His Socratic sense of citizenship
forced him to train his second arm.
"My temperament" he says in a
preface to one of his books, would
only allow me to be happy when !
was working at art. My conscience
would not let me have peace unless
| worked with other Irishmen at the
reconstruction of Irish life"
1t is fortunate, indeed, for Ireland
that this remarkable son of hers
should have had such sense of citi-
zenship as led him to train both his
hands.

WORTH REMEMBERING.

The safest and most convenient
way of firing charges in blasting is
by using the electric spark, and
blasting machines for generating the
required spark are in general use
wherever blasting operations are car
ried on.
Farmers, who often have occasion
to do blasting of stumps, rocks, ETC.,
but not often enough to justify the
expense of purchasing blasting ma
chine, will be interested in the sug.
gestion offered by Mr.. W. A. Saun-
ders, New Hampshire, who made
shift to fire a circuit of five charges
with spark obtained from a dry.
cell battery of his automobile, when
no blasting machine was available
on a certain occasion.
This is handy wrinkle to be ac-
qnainted with on occasion, suggests
