RECORD OF WORK WELL DONE Anti-Tuberculosis Campaign Fruitful of Results for the Good of All Mankind. Some comparisons showing the pro gress of the anti-tuberculosis cam paign in the last eight years and the present needs of this movement are made by the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tubercu losis in a brief report of its work re cently issued. During the eight years of its work, the national association has assisted in the organization of over 800 state and local anti-tubercu losis societies located in almost every state and territory of the Union. Over 500 hospital and sanatoria have been established, with more than 30,000 beds for consumptives. About 400 dispensaries, with more than 1,000 physicians in attendance and at least 150 open air schools for tuberculous and anaemic children, have also been provided. Laws dealing with tubercu losis have been passed in 45 states, and ordinances on this subject have been adopted in over 200 cities and towifs. An active field campaign of education against tuberculosis has been carried on in 40 states and ter ritories by means of lectures, exhibits, the press, and the distribution of over 100,000,000 pamphlets on this disease. No Little Girl for Him. The six-year-old son of a well-known Indianapolis family attends a dancing school. He is a chubby little fellow who has not begun to stretch out yet, and he keenly feels his "shortage.” He demands that he be recognized as a little “grownup.” Several days ago the teacher planned to instruct her pupils in dancing “the Butterfly.” A five-year-old girl who is small for her age, and just a trifle stouter than our hero, but an adept at dancing, was assigned as his patrner. He gazed at her in silence. Then he took hold of her hand and, with his mouth set {irmly, walked straight over to the teacher. ' “Don’t you think you’d better give me a bigger girl?” he asked.—Indian apolis News. Explaining the Needle. A typesetter in a printing house be came very adroit in explaining the large number of misprints for which he was responsible. Even when he ■ changed his work and became a wait j er in a restaurant, says Das Echo, his j skill- did not forsake him. One day he had served a guest with i a plate of soup, and was turning | away, when he was called back i sharply. ~ “This is an,outrage!” cried the ln ; dignant diner. "I find a needle in my oup! What does this mean?” “Just a misprint, sir,” explained the former typesetter. “It should have been a noodle.”—Youth's Companion. Good for Small Towns. A few big shoe manufacturers are fighting us because we have always re fused to give them better terms than we give to the small manufacturer. The little fellows stand with us be cause we treat all manufacturers alike, no matter how many machines they use. Hence, ,competition in the ! shoo business and prosperous factor ies in small towns! Write us and we will tell you all about it. The United Shoe Machinery Co., Bos ton. Mass.—Adv. Race Prejudice. This is an actual conversation which was overheard in Oregon in the presidential campaign. It was re ported to President Wilson himself, then a mere governor and candidate. He enjoyed it, but refused to allow it to be published at that time. Mike—Who are ye goin' to vote for this fall? Pat—Wilson Woodrow. Mike—Faith, an’ vice versa ye mean, don’t ye?

SULZER HURLS DEFI AT TAMMANY FORGES “No Organization Can Make Me a Rubber Stamp,” Says New York Governor. Albany, N. Y.. March 81.—With th. declaration tliat "No man. no party and no organization can make me a rub ber stamp.” Governor Sulzer made hla heraiddd announcement of political in dependence and his recognition of the principle of county autonomy in the distribution of patronage. Thera was no direct reference to Charles F. Murphy, but the governor reiterated his declaration, made early in the year, that he was the state lead er, and said that statement had not yet been challenged. Neither was there any doubt as to whom he had in mind when he gave his definition of county autonomy. "I have never been an agent and I never will be. No man. no party and no organization can make me a rub ber stamp. I am the governor. Let no man doubt that. "No one has thus far challenged my title to the governorship or my right by virtue thereof to 'the_leadership ot my party in the state, and until it is challenged openly and publicly I rest upon the Judgment of election day and will say no more about it. "I want to see each county in our state politically free and independent of political interference from any other county and have the right to settle its own political affairs in its own political way. "In the performance of my duties I have no friends to reward, no enemies |to punish, no ambition to gratify, no machine to strengthen, no organization to build up." BANKER AND YEGG SLAIN IN BATTLE Barnes, Kan., March 31.—Robert I. Brown, cashier of the Barnes State bank, was shot and killed _ today by a man who had robbed the institution. Later a posse of citizens shot the rob ber to death as he was trying to es cape from the town with a bag of gold. Brown met death when, instead of obeying the order to throw up his hands, he grabbed a revolver and fired at the robber. Brown was at the counter counting money when he was confronted by a masked man pointing two revolvers at him. "Put ’em up,” was the robber’s com mand. Brown, Instead ducked, reached into the drawer, got his revolver and had emptied it without effect in the direc tion of the robber, before a bullet through the head killed him. John Potter, assistant cashier, appeared at the back door and was met by two bullets from the robber’s revolver, neither of which struck him. "You better not get in this,” sneered the robber, who kept Potter covered while he gathered into a bag $600 in gold that had been spread before Brown on the counter. He then left the bank on the run. Citizens, alarmed by the shooting, were in pursuit before he had covered a block. Within three blocks of the bank he fell before a volley of bullets, still clutching the bag of gold In his hands. He died within a few minutes. The robber could not be identified. He apparently was about 35 years old and is believed to have been a member of the “Wymore gang” of bank robbers that has robbed a number of banks along the Nebraska-Kansas line within the last few years. Brown was 40 years old. He leaves a widow' and three children. AGREE ON TERMS OF INCOME TAX MEASURE All Under $4,000 Exempt— Fight for Free Raw Wool to Be Waged in House. Washington, March 31.—The tariff revision, including a graduated Income tax plan, was completed last night by me uemucrauc majority or rne House committee on ways and means, which adjourned sine die.

Y„ March 31.—The assem bly has resisted the Influence of '‘In visible government” and passed bills designed to correct the evils of spec ulation and to rehabilitate the New York stock exchange in the eyes of the people. The bills passed were those recommended by Governor $ul zer in a special message to the legis lature. The measures, which will now he sent to the senate, where “invisible government” will try to accomplish their defeat, were the following: 1. Compelling all exchanges deal ing In bonds and stocks to incorporate under the laws of the state. 2. Establishing a bureau of securi ties under the control of the banking department to supervise the character of the securities offered to investors and fashioned after the “blue sky law” of Kansas. 3. Prohibiting stock brokers from doing business on a "bucket shop” basis. 4. Providing a jail sentence for brokers rehypothecating the securities of a customer, 6. Making It a crime to deceive the public by means of fictitious transac tions. 6. Prohibiting the stock exchange from refusing orders from members of the consolidated or other ex change. Governor Sulzer Gratified. These bills, with two others, passed by the assembly are now squarely tip to the senate, the assembly having swept its deck clear of every measure relating to stock exchange reform rec ommended by the governor. When informed of the action of the assembly, Governor Sulzer expressed satisfaction. “X am confident,” he said, “that the senate will not be recreant to the duty confronting it and will place these measures on the statute books. The bills, if properly enforced, will benefit members of the stock exchange quite as much as the public. As a matter of fact, I believe that the greater benefit will accrue to the stock exchange be cause of the fact that the people will have in that institution under the im proved laws renewed confidence in con ditions.” - i X XX X X X X X X A ▲ A A A A.

WHOLE CONTINENT TO AID SUFFERING Contributions of Money Now Amount to $1,000,000—Illi nois Points Threatened By Rising Streams. Estimates of the number of persons who perished in tne Ohio and Indiana flood still differ widely early today, especially at Dayton, where probably the greatest loss of life occurred. It was said by many business men who are familiar with the city that the number of dead would not exceed 160, while undertakers of Dayton esti mated the deaths at 800. Money and supplies are pouring In from practically every part of North America, including Canada and Alaska. Even the far away Island possession of Hawaii has made a substantial con tribution. '$1,000,000 in Monsy. Governor Cox said he had received contributions amounting to $1,000,000 In money and that every hour brings additional aid. The national government, the Ohio state government, chambers of com merce and charitable organizations of many cities are rushing food and medi cal supplies to various cities in the flood districts. Secretary of War Garrison, with MaJ. Gen. Leonard Wood, chief of staff, reached Cincinnati early this morning and planned to be In Dayton before noon. The flood in the Ohio river from Parkersburg, W. V&.. to Cairo, 111., today threatened heavy destruction to property. Citizens of Shawneetown, 111., ap pealed to Governor Dunne last night for tents in which to shelter people, as It was feared the levees would break and drive many from their homes. Later, however, the sheriff advised the governor that Immediate assistance was not necessary. Review of Situation. Alonzo Burt, vice president of the Chicago Telephone company, received by wire the following analysis of flood conditions in Ohio, compiled by E. A. Reed, general manager of the Central Union Telephone company at Colum bus, where he has been directing relief work: ueiaware— wunout llgnt. water and telephone service, 'city and country people who are not affected are reliev ing the local situation. No outside help needed at. present. Washington—City slightly damaged and railroad and telephone facilities somewhat crippled. Newark—Transportation, telegraph and telephone facilities crippled. Peo ple are able to relieve their own suf fering. Planning to send relief to Zanesville. Clrcleville—No suffering that can not be relieved locally. Lancaster—No .flood conditions re quiring outside help. Mansfield—Transportation and tele graph lines crippled and city without water and light, but these will be re stored in 24 hours. No outside relief needed. Sidney—Merchants taking care of the people. Both reservoirs considered safe. Troy—Local people able to take care of the flood sufferers. Plenty of pro visions. Chlllicothe—Flood conditions very bad; 5,000 people driven from their homes and 600 families need assist ance. Provisions available for one day. Outside help needed, principally money could be used more advantageously than supplies supplied from distant points. Logan and Nelsonville—No help needed. Plqua—Needs' one additional com pany of militia east of the river to pre vent looting and protect property. Sup plies being forwarded dally from Greenville, Union City and Winchester, Ind., on the west, and from Urbana on the east. Well organized citizens In charge of relief work. Ottawa—Securing relief from Lima. Lima and Defiance—-Both cities able to take care of their own conditions. MUDDY OOZE MAY COVER MANY BODIES IN DAYTON Dayton, March 81.—Digging bodies out of the mud was the chief work of rescuers today. The water had drained off from almost all of the flood area, leaving thick layers of mud, which In some Instances, piled up by the eddies, was several feet deep. It soon began to dry up in portions of the streets ex posed to the sunshine, but for six blocks the searchers for bodies waded through a sea of oozy slime. A brilliant sunshine threw an un canny light over the distorted area, where the home of 76,000 people were swept away or toppled over. A view down almost any street re vealed among the debris tumbled over houses, pianos, household utensils and dead horses brushed together In con fusion. At two points the bodies of horses were seen still caught In the tops of trees where they had been swept. UVCI VII 1*1X3 IIUI III v.1 ■’"••I where a relief station was established under martial law in the Longfellow school house, thousands of homeless people gathered for supplies of food and clothing. Every able bodied man was pressed Into service. A man with a megaphone stood at the door calling out orders. At least 30 people were drowned when the Leonard building collapsed Wednesday night, according to the statement of Detective Kincaid today. More than 20 persons were rescued from the market houses near the city building Thursday night by Edward Schaeffer, who sat astride his horse and swam Into the markets, carrying a rope. About 20 people were trapped In the markets and stood on meat blocks. Schaeffer fastened the rope around one after another and then po lice officers and detectives in the building pulled them to safety. WILSON NOT NEEDED. Washington, March 31.—Secretary Garrison telegraphed President Wilson today that it was perfectly safe to an nounce to the country that relief was being well taken care of by those on the ground and that II would not be necessary for him to leave Washington for the flood district. HAMILTON DEAD WILL NOT EXCEED 100 MARK Hamilton, Ohio, March 31.—Less than 100 Is the estimate today of the dead In the flood here^ As the water recedes the evidences of the property destruction are more appalling, but the death list, it is said, will not exceed 100. Piled high on the east side of tbs court house are caskets awaiting the flood victims, whoso bodies are being gathered as rapidly as possible. DAYTON SITUATION VASTLY IMPROVED; LOSS EXAGGERATED Flood Damage Placed at Around $20,000,000 — Suffering Is Intense, But Food Is Plentiful. Dayton, Ohio, March 29.—The flood ■ltuation In Dayton today is this: Previous estimates of the number drowned are greatly exaggerated. The property loss from Are will not exceed more than $1,600,000. The damage caused to mercantile houses, factories and residences ^ will run anywhere from $16,000,000 to $20, 000,000. The water has receded from the business section of the city and from a large portion of the residence district. Residents in portions still Inundated are being taken to sections not affected by the flood. There Is no lack of food. The telephone systems are being re stored. There Is much suffering from cold, but all available fuel has been ap propriated and there Is prospect of Immediate relief. 8o far there has been no epidemic of disease. One thousand militiamen, arriving today, have the city in rigid control, squelching looters, sightseers that will Interfere with rescue work, and all disorder. Touring the business sections today, officials found the high stage of the flood was nine feet at the corner of Third and Main streets, which is in the very heart of the city. The on-rushing water flooded the first floor of every store . in the business district. This constitutes the chief financial loss. The tower or the steel high school was leveled and the Leonard building on Main street was undermined so that it collapsed. Many houses were swept away in Riversdale, West Day ton, North Dayton and Kdgemont. Buildings Withstood Flood. The following buildings withstood the flood and furnished shelter to about 7,000 people who were marooned in them from Tuesday until Thursday: Conover building, Kuhns building, the Arcade, two Cappell buildings, Callahan building, Commercial build ing, Mendenhal building, Rlce-Kunler building, Reibold building. United Brethren Publishing company's build ing. None of the public buildings were destroyed. Among the latter were the Dayton club, Victoria, National and Colonial theaters, city hall, court house, Beckel, Phillips, Algonquin and Atlas hotels. Masonic temple, postof flee, T. M. C. A. and all churches. Daring Thief Thwarted. The Are loss Is positively limited to the destruction of the Dayton Gas, Light and Power company's plant, the row of two and three story buildings from Jefferson street to St. Claire ave nues, the Clay Pearl laundry plant and two apartment house fires on the west side. A daring robbery was thwarted to day when the police arrested a man who was escaping from the city with a satchel containing $50,000 In diamonds and Jewelry, which he had stolen from Jewelry stores Alarming reports that looters well armed, were active in the district from which water had partly receded had reached the headquarters of the emer gency committee. Militia are prepar ing an expedition to quell disorders. A score of motorboats and the Ufa saving boats were in the flood district early today and by tonight it was hoped relief would be extended to all flood victims that were still alive. Survivors Are Weak. No effort wae being made to take out any bodies, the flrst care being to pro vide help for the living. The boats be gan to return early from the nearer sections, each depositing its load of from 15 to 20 survivors. Most of the people rescued were so weak from de privation and suffering as to be scarce ly able to move. At 8 o’clock several hundred had been brought to the cash register hospital on stretchers from the south side of the river. The situation was much brighter to day. The trucks sent from the Cash Register company manned by men with military orders to confiscate potatoes and food from the farmers, brought back a good supply of vegetables and several relief trains reached the city with the supplies. The rescue work had taken on the semblance of system and all the streets from which the flood had receded were patrolled by militia. People were urged to get back to their houses whenever possible. » Wiki "Beware of thieves and burglars," said an official bulletin given wide cir culation. "Don't leave your houses without protection. It was thieves who scared you about the reservoir and natural gas explosion. The natural gas has been turned off and there Is no danger of explosions." Sixty Catholic sisters at the ncad emy of the Sisters of Notre Dame, and 18 persons for whom they had pro vided refuge, were found by the I.ouls vllle life saving crew today to have been entirely without food or water • since Tuesday. There were several cases of illness. Fewer Fatalities. Chief of Police Allabaek today told the Associated Press correspondents that reports he had received Indicating the number of fatalities to be far less than early conditions Indicated. As nearly as can be ascertained, about 100 persons were drowned in Rlverdaie, the first section of the city to be flooded. The rushing waters overturned several houses there and rolled them over and over wtih their occupants Inside. In eastern Dayton, Dayton View and Oakwood the loss of life. Chief Alla back said, was small. In North Day-, ton where the topography of the land made the situation more dangerous than at any other point, relief parties penetrated this morning and found that although there would be a large num ber of fatalities, the number of drowned was not likely to be relatively much greater than in Riverdale, the other section that bore the elder brunt of the flood. FAR WEST AIDS OHIOANS. San Francisco, March 29.—The San Francis +> branch of the National Red Cross society announced last night that $11,000 had been subscribed for the Hood sufferers in Ohio and Indiana. This sum will be largely Increased. Independent funds are being raised by a number of civic and commercial bodies and labor unions. Throughout the state relief measures are being taken.
