STATE HEALTH OFFICER ANGRY Hurty Scores Authorities at Wernle Home Because Of Typhoid.
DISEASE ABOUT CHECKED.
BELIEVED THERE IS NO FURTHER DANGER OF SPREAD AS GREATER PRECAUTIONS ARE BEING TAKEN.
ORDERED TO REPORT
AT FT.
If Sandorf Can't Ride He Must Hike.
When Dr. J. E. King, county health
officer reported to Dr. J. N. Hurty of the state board of health that there had been seventeen cases of typhoid
fever and one death, from the disease
at the Wernle Orphans' Home recent
ly, and that the disease was made an epidemic by flies, the secretary of
the state board was angry. He ex
pressed his feelings In plain terms
saying: "In this Instance, as in quite all oth
er Instances, when typhoid fever
breaks out, some person is to blame
The Orphans' Home authorities violate the laws of cleanliness, which,
we are told, are next to godliness, and also the laws of well-being, when they
permit the condition that prevailed
there. The visitor from Columbus,
O., surely brought the typhoid infec tion to the home and the flies distrib
uted it, causing seventeen cases and
one death. The day is close at hand
when intelligent people will not tol
erate typhoid fever deaths any more
than they now tolerate deaths from
snake bites and wolf's teeth."
In the opinion of the health author
ities the ravages of the disease have
been checked.' There is believed to be
no danger of further spread. Super
intendent Gahre, of the home, said -today every , possible precaution has
been taken. The drinking water In
use at the home has been analyzed
and found in good condition. Never
theless the well is not used at present and the water is hauled from the city
mains in iron retorts.
According to the report of Dr. King
the disease, first appeared at the
home after the visit there of a man
from Columbus, Ohio. He was taken
ill upon his return home and died.
He came to the home to entrust two children to its care. The two children
sickened soon after their arrival at the home and since the latter part of
July the seventeen cases have been
contracted.
The spread of the disease 1 attri
buted to flies. It is said the flies had unrestricted access to the kitchen and
swarmed about when meals were in
preparation. The flies are believed to have carried germs of the disease from the sick room or persons of the
children, who were afflicted.
Upon instructions from Col. Green of the Tenth United States Infantry, William Sandhouf, a straggler who
was found In a saloon last night by Officer Lawler was ordered to go on to Indianapolis. The Colonel telephone for Sandhouf to report to Fort Benjamin Harrison, at Indianapolis,
that he had been absent without leave, if. he could raise the money to reach that point If not the straggler is to
move on by foot until he overtakes
the marching troops on their return
hike.

For the theft of a sack of coal valued at 50 cents, from a car, the contents of which belonged to the Independent Fuel and Ice company, Robert Bass, colored, was fined $5 and costs in city court this morning. The judge stated it was not because of the intrinsic value of the stolen property that he assessed the fine, but as an example as it is necessary to break up the practice of stealing coal. Every year the dealers In fuel have trouble with thieves. The county poor fund would provide fuel for all applicants to the township trustee, who are
unable to purchase it, and there is ab-;
solutely no reason why any one should steal it. The trustee of Wayne township has been indiscriminate in his selections of persons to receive help and all worthy ones, who have applied have been rewarded. Bass was found on the car loading a sack by Officer Herschfleld last night.

cannot harm one. The system craves It just like an animal needs and
craves salt every so often. Charcoal
goes into the stomach gently and is welcome. It settles down through the action of the stomach, and filters through all the food, absorbing gas, aiding digestion and giving tone to the juices, so that when the food goes into the intestines, and there meets
other digestive fluids, the charcoal holds the impurities and thus keeps them from the blood. Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are made from pure willow. They are prepared fragrant by the use of honey and sweetened so they please the taste and are easily dissolved. They have an enormous sale, thus stamping them with the approval of the public. Every druggist sells them, 25 cents per box.
