Making Good Headway Against
Disease but Situation Is
Still Serious
WORK WE'LL
IN HAND
Plan for Systematizing Dostors'
Service Is Recommended
by Physician

Twenty-Five deaths were reported
at relief headquarters yesterday and
while there is no occasion for undue
alarm. as the organization is hand
ling the situation with remarkable
capability and thoroughness. the sit
uation continues to be serious.
The committee last night authorized
the following statement.
THE committee was overrun with
calls for doctors yesterday In fact
at ten o'clock last night there were
on file seventy-f1ve calls which they
were unable to fill. The committee
would therefore urgently request that
those making calls through it for doc
tors, give particulars in full. Give
name. correct street address, and name
of physician, If any, who has pre-
viously given treatment. This is nec-
essary to avoid confusion and dupli-
cation of calls. If request is made
for a physician, and later some one
else is secured. please notify head
quarters promptly. Remember every
minute of a Doctors time is now pre-
cious, and the time spent in making
useless trips might have been used in
saving a life.
Relief Workers Still Needed
Every man woman in the city, ev-
cry boy or girl old enough to help in
the emergency work should be on the
job, doing part to aid In stamping
out the disease.
One Of the important features of
the relief service is the food supply
and medicine department. where yes
terday alone nearly three hundred
calls were responded to with milk.
soup. buttermilk, ice, eggs and gro
ceries of various kinds.

supplied with sheets, pillow cases,
gowns, etc.
Patriotic League Gives Aid
The Patriotic League rooms have
been turned into a temporary hospital
and eight patients were placed there
yesterday, in charge of a trained
nurse.
Mariana Nurses Arrive
Four additional members OF the
Mariana Chapter of the Red Cross
arrived last night to assist in the re-
lief work, making eight members Of
the Mariana Red Cross actively en-
gagged in the work here. Those arriv-
ing last night were Mrs. 7. G. Ais
brook. Mrs. z. w. Gentry. Mrs. Frank
Troutman and Mr. Karl Lano.
Organization Work Improves
AS the relief progresses, the dis
trict work improves in organization.
One woman has devised the plan Of
making a census of her district, tab
ulating the name and address, num-
ber in family. number Ill, and number
convalescent. Conditions In her dis
trict are reported to headquarters
daily. A similar plan is followed in
other districts.
A milk depot, under the direction Of
Miss Martha Whiting and Mrs. Crom,
met the needs OF the sick yesterday
in a wonderful way. but there Is great
need for bottles and pars, and anyone
having these to spare are asked to
send them to headquarters daily.
AS the organization work OF the
relief COMMITTEES has been
carried forward, a more accurate sys-
tenn has been installed, and yesterday
found the long room rallied off in such
a way that each department was sep
arated, each working under an official

CROWD FORGETS

7 Colurl0.a. June 3.-Does the Office

Are Manning and his advisers to die

whom they shall choose to succeed
Senator Tillman? Are they quietly 10

people to DO but blindlv to cast their
ballots? It appears that was what
they thought they were going to do,
The only hitch in their program is
that they reckoned without the peo-
pie. They counted without the votes
in AugGst They played the people for
weaklings. Clothed in little brief
authority, they either forgot. Or laid
plan to ;gIore the source OF power
fro~n which their authority came
They would set themselves I'D under
the old doctrine, now being wiped OFF
the face OF the earth, of the divine
rieht of kings" Mr.. Manning would
take a trip to WASHINGTON, and then
write Mr. Lever that he must come
into the race, and all would be well.
The only detail unattended to was the
voting in August. That, of course,
was to be very small matter. and
doubtless received very little consider
alton. TIE failure to consider that
little detail Of the vote of the people
was where the plan fell through.

AS matter of fact, the game is not

the 'ultra-Conservative crowd tried 10
play six years ago. when they misled
Tillman into desertion of the Reform
