an unusual sight was witnessed
by passers-by at the home of a we'll
known Madison farmer last week.
The farmer had about 80 bushels of
potatoes that had not been dug when
the first snow storms arrived three
weeks ago. He secured the loan of
a road drag and used it to scrape the
snow from the tops of the rows and
put a crew of men at work digging.
The ground not being frozen the po-
tatoes were as good as those dug
sCme weeks ago.

Charles Clark left town Monday for

NEW YORK. Oct 1O.-An investiga-
ton will be made today by the depart-
ment of health to determine if the death
of the anthrax victim, Michael f. Farley.
former representative from the four
teenth congressional district was caused
by the shaving brush he used If it is
found to be infected, and was manufac-
tured here, the maker of it will be prose
cuted and will be liable to year in
Jail upon conviction, according to a state
ment by Commissioner Copeland last
night. t
This fatality also revealed yesterday
that the department of health has been
waging a campaign for several months to
prevent the spread of anthrax germs here
through the importation of foreign hair
and hides. Within six months. DIR. s.
Dana Hubbard. chief of the division of
industrial hygiene, has barred the entry
OF 10000 shaving brushes from JarTn
and has compelled the return of the ship
ments on the ground of anthrax infection.
Similar action was taken with hun
dredS of tons of horSehair sent here
from Russia. principally from Siberia. to
be used in the manufacture of shaving
brushes At the same time the depart
ment has excluded - bales of hides from
China. which were found infected with
the dangerous anthrax germs. Health of
fcials, it was explained. exercise hygienic
supervision over imported hides intended
to be fabricated in articles for personal
use as they do with hair brushes
The brush used by Farley is in his
hotel room at 302 West Twenty second
street This and other articles of his
shaving equipment will be tested in the
laboratory today.
In the last 10 months there were 81
cases of anthrax here, 20 of which were
shaving brush infections. There was
total of II deaths in this group. nine of
them shaving brush victims. One of the
ether two deaths was caused by an an
thrax tooth brush. The other resulted
from an infected Scrubbing brush.
In the last eight months there were
only four cases of anthrax and two
deaths. including that of Farley. The
treatment by serum has been most sue

PELLETIER FOR MAYOR.
Hopes to Win Election Before Case
Against Him Can BE Tried.

Joseph c. Pelletier will not resign, in the
opinion of one of his chief lieutenants,
and 50 far VIII proceed in accord with the
advice Of James NJ. CurIey. but within IS
hours will announce his candidacy for
mayor despite all Mr. Curley's efforts to
prevent it.
The news from conferences of Pelletier
supporters is to the following effect:
Mr.. Pelletier has received assurances
from a few friends Of his i'm the Suffolk
Bar association that Attorney General
Allen cannot possibly prepare any case
based on the bar association charges
against Pe1letier within a month, and the
usual court delays will make it perfectly
feasible to delay the trial till after the
city election.
Moreover, it is alleged that up to this
time the encouragement has but little
evidence other than that eoIlated i'm the
campaign of Godfrey Cabot. which had so
