oped that Henry E. Bairey, aged 54,
who committed suicide on his farm
in the Olga district of Brule county,
feared the approach of old age and
helplessness and that this fear in

he realized the approach of old age
and the helplessness which often
comes with it, and that he did not
wish to be dependent upon anyone.
He never was married and lived
alone. He was one of family of
10 children, five brothers and sis

DISEASE IS |NCREAS-
ING IN EUROPE
EPIDEMICS ATTENDANT UPON
FANlINES IN RUSSIA ARE NOW
SPREADING.

Washington, ID. c., March 90
danger to eastern Europe from epi-
denies attendant upon the prevail
ence of famine in Russia is rapidly
becoming serious, according to a re-
port compiled by the league of ma
tions health committee. The COM
mittee declared the entire frontier
zone between soviet Russia and Tx
raine on one hand. and central Eu-
rope on the other, is less prepared
to Withstand the probable shock of
epidemics than it has been for sew
eral years.
The situation is gradually becom-
ing more grave, the committee
found, and predicted its elimination
when the famine reaches its crisis,
probably in April
The threat of disease to eastern
Europe was said to be due, first, to
the tremendous wave of migration
caused by the flight of peasants
from the famine stricken areas to-
wards districts where food produc-
tion is possible, and, second, to mass
repatriation of hundreds of thou
sands of Poles and others who were
dislodged from their homes during
the great retreat of 1915.
The greatly increased repatriation
was said TO have resulted in a break
in Polish sanitary Gordon. with the
result that typhus has spread farther
west than ever before i'm reaching
Lithuania and east Prussia
The famine, moreover, is not
known to have reached into the fer
tile regions of the Ukraine, to which
tens of thousands of refugees from
the northern provinces had fled in
the hope of finding food and shelter.
The Polish government in an eff
fort to meet these difficulties, has
named former prime minister as
special repatriation commissioner,
while the city of Warsaw has APP
pointed an extraordinary epidemic
commissioner, and a conference is
now in session under call of the Po-
lish government and auspices of the
league of nations in the effort TO
coordinate the preventative measur-
es of all the states contingent on
Russia.
