S - J 10 TTIE BEE: OMATIA, TUESDAY, JANUARY' on 4.0, 1910. ABOUT TIM TYPHOID FEVES Dr. E. Holovtchiner Sayi No Typhui Bacillus Hat Been Found. SAYS CITY WATER NOT TO BLAME tlrhnkri Alarmist that la Prossotlsj th Hear Alxrat aa Vnnsaal Amount of the Dlsrase and Crying ''Boll Water." A H A , .Ton. 24-To ths Kdltor of Th lion: Th dally reports In a certain Omaha Viewfpnppf of the number of ces of ty IhoM fsvsr and of the number of deaths from that dlnr-a are not only sensational, but nre really nauseating. The ronotant harassing of our school su perintendent for not causing th water to be boiled In the school butUlfnas la also ex asperating and to a hlffh degree annoying. l us analyse the so-called typhoid fever epldomlc and Us supposed cause. We nil know that Impure water, bad milk, decayed vegetables or stale shell fish are greatly responslblo for typhoid ferer. Our city bacteriologist has repeatedly an alysed and examined our city water in dif ferent localities, and, tf I am not mistaken, has never found In one Instance or In any sample the typhus bacillus the only cul I prlt responsible for the dreaded disease, j consequently no blame could be laid to our city water for the sporadic cases of typhoid fever In existence today In Omaha, He did find, however, as I understand, ! under the mloroKCope, colon bacilli and al ' bumlnold ammonia in his analysis; but these agents nro not responsible for typhoid fever. They would be the cause of Intes ) final or bowel derangements, and that Is probably the trouble we have to contend with In the majority of cases heralded as typhoid. .. ' Admits There Is Some Typhoid, I do. not deny that we have typhoid fever In Omaha. I myself have some cases nn hand and verv severe ones. But when was there a time when we were free from U.I.I T 9 t I .11 n '1 Snde. like the poor, we have always with f, but never before did any newspaper think of reporting them with such per sistency, ., , I. venture to say that if all the cases of tuberculosis existing in Omaha were to be reported dally In the press; or If all mental or nervous diseases were chronicled from day to day, Omaha would have had the reputation of tha most Infested city with consumption or would have the appearance of the most glgantio Insane asylum In the world; while as a matter of fact, Omaha has less consumption than any city of its sice; and, by the way we are steadily growing and progressing, we certainly are the most sane and safe city In the wor'.d. Now as to the harassing of 'our school superintendent for not having water boiled in the schools; the hue and cry about It Is equally absurd. It Is easy to advise boil ing water In schools but how? Did the alarmist ever darken the threshold of our schools? If ho' did he Would know that such a procedure is practically impossible. With tlio probable exception of one or two schools there are no facilities whatever to boll water, and then, after you have pro cured bold water how would you pro vide sanitary methods for serving same T fttrlvinic to Improve. We are constantly deVising all sorts of schemes now-a-days to get away from the trough and cup system. We have fountains In the schools, whei-o children can drink wateir without coming in 'contact with metal, and wo are abolishing the common cup altogether. We have tho Individual eup system, sanitary fauret mothods, etc., but how would We ll.Mp?nse boiled water If not from a barrel oi' tub or receptacle of huge dimensions to aecjmmodate the hun dreds of children In one school? But why ai'Kulnb, figuring and calculating, when there is no epidemic of typhoid fever in Omuha? When the typhoid bad lus was never found in the water and the milk supply found not to be contaminated with typhoid virus T ' As to the cases of typhoid fever existing this year the same cause must be attri buted to them as was a year ago or any other year, without Sounding any unneces sary and spectacular alarm. DR. E. HOLOVTCHINER. Motorm an Saves Life of a Youth Charlei Bath . Stops Car Instantly When Boy Cunningham is Thrown on Tracks. Thrown. from his wagon oy a runaway nurse dJreotiy into the path of a speeding street car, ,Roy,' Cunningham's life was saved by the quick action of Charles Ruth, the motorm&n, who applied his brakes In the very nick of time.

Word was received In Omaha Monday morning that Union Pacific officials had filed survey plats In Cheyenne and that from Indications work will be pushed on the now extension. It was also reported that tha company's shops at Cheyenne will be transferred to Denver. According to the plats filed In Wyoming the extension will enter the state a few miles south of ths point where the North Platte river Is crossed by the state line. Through the Oroshen Hole country the survey passes nine miles aouth of Wheat land and eighty-five miles north of Chey enne, goes through the Black Hills by a serlos of tunnels 'and connects with the main line at Medicine Bow.

PAYS HIS SIX DOLLARS ON FIVE-YEAR-OLD DIVORCE "Better Late Than Never," Says Roy j Walls aa He Settles for Decree OMalnea In 1008. "Better late than never," is the motto of Roy Walls, a colored man who has Just paid up the costs In a divorce decree handed down in November, 1906. Mr. Wails was not late on the whole amount. He paid 3.96 of $9.96 due at the time the de cree was signed, and Monday he paid the other 18. Walls sued for divorce from Belle Walls, charging that he was terrorised Into mar rying her on pain of threatened imprison ment. The decree was signed by Judge Bears, but never entered. Nowadays the district court has a strictly enforced1 rule that when the costs are assessed to plaintiff In a di vorce suit the Judge shall not sign the de cree until the cash has come into the hands of the clerk of district court. There Is a difference of opinion as to whether a di vorce granted as was Walls', with the de cree signed. Is effective or not before the coots are paid. Under, the new rule there is assuredly no decree until cash settle ment is made. Why Walls came forth at this late date doe not appear. There is a division of opinion, one side contending that a dor mant conscience became suddenly active, the others assert that Mr. Walls Is prob ably contemplating leading a dusky belle to the altar of his own free will this time and that he therefore wished the other alliance severed beyond the perad venture of a doubt.

What Is Dry Cleaning? Many people have erroneous Ideas about what Dry Cleaning really is they have the im pression that their clothes are actually cleaned dry aa tho the cleaner by some magic method would pass, his hand over the garment and say "Presto'.' It is clean." . i Fact Is the krori '"Dry" is a'tnls nonier. Chemical Cleaning would be nearer correct, only people are apt to associate "Chemical" with aclda, alkalis, etc., which are not used In Dry Cleaning. The Dry Cleaner depends jirln-. clpally upon gasoline, naptha, ben slne and other petroleum an i coal lar produots for his cleansing ma terial. Instead of water as do the laundererk. There Is no especial secret In the operation evuept that the knowledgo gained by years of experience -and study, coupled with a modern and fully equipped plant, enables one to do belter work than his corrpetltor. Our dry cleaners know their business thoroly, and as for our equipment,- well if there is any thing we haven't ti"t it Is cocnuse we have never heard of it our plant is the largest snT most mod ern In the Middle West.
