MRS. RIDDLE DIES AT
AGE OF SEYENTY-FTVE
Crossed the Plains in 81 to Make
Home in Oregon-Resident of
Wyoming for 26 Years

After an illness of several weeks
with pneumonia, at the advanced
age Of seventy-fve years, Mrs. T.
s. Riddle died at her home on east
Sheridan avenue On Saturday aft
ernoon. Her condition had been
such. that the doctors had held out
days before her death, and the fam
fly had been called to her bedside
when the end came.
Her body was shipped Monday
to her old home at Glide, Oregon,
for burial. accompanied by her
husband and son, Riley Duncan.
In the death of Mrs. Riddle an
other of the pioneers of the West
goes on. She was the daughter of
Johr H. Chapman and Martha Eells
Chapman, and crossed the plains in
1854. at a tender age, to make her
home in Douglas county. Oregon,
locating on a stock ranch seven
teen miles from where the city of
Roseburg is now located, In Or
egon she lived the most of her long
and useful life.
On November s, 1898, she be-
came the wife of T. S. Riddle, at
that time one of the prominent
stockmen of Oregon, residing near
the town which bears his name,
Riddle. Oregon. In 1901 they came
to Wyoming and located a ranch
near Marquette, on land which is
now included in Shoshone reser-
v0ir. With the building of the
dam. they removed to Hardin,
Montana, and remained there for
a few years, returning to Cody ten
years ago and purchasing a home
on the outskirts of this town, where
the old couple have made their
home since.
Mrs. Riddle was one of those
splendid characters developed under
the most trying conditions of the
early day West. and was loved and
respected by all who knew her. AL
though well along in years at the
time she came to make her home
in Cody, she made quite an extern
sive acquaintance while living here,
and was n always ~endeavoring to
do something in a kindly way for
those she liked.
In her passing she is survived by
her husband, one son, Riley Dun
can of Sheridan, Montana, by her
first marriage, and three step-chil-
dren, Dewey and Presley Riddle
of Cody, and Helen Riddle Johnson
of Billings, Montana, besides many
grandchildren.

MILK SUPPLY HERE NOT HIGHLY RATED Only Two of 38 Sources Of
 Supply Found Clean TWO ARE LABELED 'DIRTY"
City Bacteriologist Bowers Files Re- port Showing Net Findings on Examinations Covering Past Year Water Supply Excellent.

Only two of tho city's 3s milk sources were found to have main- tained satisfactory degree of cleanliness in laboratory examina- tions made last year by City Bac- teriologist Chester R. Bowers.
 MT. Bowers completed his report for the fiscal year 1926-27 today. He reports q sources fairly clean" 12 Slightly dirty and three dir ty" The results he reports are from average findings and are not based on any one particular sample. he states.
 From daily analyses of city water, Bowers reports excellent findings. Difficulties attending the upturning of water at Shuttle Meadow reser- voir last year as result of which a cloudy and in some instances muddy product was delivered from the mains, will be bettered through the new filtration system he feels cer- tain.
 Pneumonia was the chief report able cause of deaths having cost l14 lives. Tuberculosis came next with 30, influenza third with 19.
 Accompanying the statistical re- port is the following statement:
 For the last two years there has been a very marked incidence in the number of cases of diphtheria. For example. during 1924-1926 there were 1SS cases of the disease while during the past year there were but 23. Naturally enough this has resulted in a corresponding loss in the number of throat and nose cultures brought to the lab oratory for initial diagnosis as well as a decrease in the number of cultures examined for release from quarantine.
 Throughout the year a constant check has been maintained on the city water supply. samples having been examined daily. It is pleasing to report that the supply has main tained a high bacteriological stan- dard. However. considerable anx- iety was felt last summer by many citizens due to the turbidity of the water caused by the growth of al- gae and the occurrence of minute crustacea. This trouble appears each year, and last year it was worse than usual, but undoubtedly with the proposed new filtration plant in operation this defect in the city water supply will be rem edied.

 When the piece of wreckage was picked up there was an opinion held that possibly the wing was from the White Bird' plane of Nungesser and Coli. missing since their attempted flight from Paris The wing was brought here and Captain H. c. Hamlet, base con- mander of the coast guard, gave 1t an examination. The condition of the wing showed it must have been partly submerged in the water for considerable period.
 Several other patrol boats were despatched to the scene from the local base. And while the 290 pur- sued her search seawards. the 231 relieved her of the aeroplane wing, and lowed it to local headquarters.
 Fort Pond bay is an open stretch of water facing the Atlantic ocean, about five miles from the extreme tip Of Long Island, and is in direct line with the course that the French fiiers would follow if they succeeded in spanning the Atlantic and headed down the New England coast line, and this fact gave rise to the hope
