PNEUMONIA WEATHER. It rtll doubtless not alarm the public to be told that this month la the pneumonia month. This does not Diui that you can't get the disease In ay month, but that a great harvest will be reaped by death In this form from vow on. At the advent of cold weather most people begin to stay In
the house and to ride In street cars
to get rid of the biting cold and many
a man begins the systematic practice
of taking a little "nip" to keep (as he
Imagines the blood circulating. Not content with staying closely within
doors, the house itself is closely guard
ed lest a breath of pure air find Its way Into It. People who have had
their windows up all summer and fall begin- to put them down and Imagine
that they are staving off disease by
keeping the rooms sealed up. a
Watlng rooms in stations, street cars, theaters and all places which have crowds of people in them are sim
ply laden with germs of all sorts.
Then, too, the holiday season la approaching when there are many fee-
tire occasions and after working hard all day people stay up till late at night losing sleep and vitality. No, wonder when the pneumo-cocus
comes along, the human system is
boat ready to receive the guest and afford It a comfortable lodging place. Dr. Bnrty of the State Board of Health, says that two hundred and fifty people, apparently healthy, and
strong now, will be laid low by this disease in the next month. Do yon
want to be one of them?
If, so, this is all you have to do to get It. It is not hard and no doubt. If you do one or two of them In great numbers It will suffice as well aa the whole list. Dr. Hurty says: To bring the disease whenever yon want it, drink freely of stimulants, take a few cocktails or highballs, many
cups of coffee and many cups of tea every day; eat quantities of meat and salad, dig Into society hard and exhaust your strength; practice all kinds of intemperance, be sure to keep out of the fresh air; dont ventilate your bedrooms, library and office,, and ride In the close, thrice-breathed air of the trolley cars. If doing all these things doesn't bring you pneumonia, hen you are indeed extra strong. So many business men havo pneumonia. They attend a convention, enjoy a big feed, spend much time Irt the hotel buffet with tobacco smoke and bad air, and then go home In a sleeping car berth with curtains tightly drawn. Pneumonia has been termed 'the Captain of the Men of Death.' It is increasing in the cities at a rapid rate, and slowly Increasing in the country. A. very large proportion of pneumonia cases which recover arterward die of consumption."
Hands Off Is Taft's Motto
President-Elect Will Not Interfere in Ohio Senatorial Situa
tion in Which His Brother Is Vitally Interested.
Hot Springs, Va., Dec 3. More than once since his nomination for and election as president has William H. Taft said he intends not to be drawn into the contest for the senatorship in Ohio this winter, and this will continue to be his fixed purpose. By this is meant that he will not exert his Influence as president-elect In behalf of any particular candidate for the toga that- has been worn for the last twelve years by Joseph B. Foraker. Neither will it be used against any candidate. Without quoting the president-elect and with no pretense of authority to speak for him, it is generally conceded that he is sincerely anxious to keep
out of the senatorial fight altogether, as he announced his intention of doing at Hot Springs last summer through Arthur I. Vorys and as he has stated a number of times since the election to newspaper correspondents, but' it is also said that the attitude attributed to him of feeling embarrassed at the candidacy of his brother, Charles P. Taft, or, in fact, being opposed to it, mistakes his opinion. His attitude is merely that of "hands off," believing, as he does, that every eligible person has a right to be a candidate for the senate, and that it is absurd to suppose that the brother of the president is rendered ineligible for the position by the relationship.

Another Foreign Romance Is Wrecked by Divorce Suit.
Cleveland, O., Dec. 3. Mrs. Bessie Johnson-Mariani, daughter of Mayor Tom L. Johnson, through City Solicitor Newton D. Baker, has filed a motion with the county clerk asking for an immediate hearing of her divorce suit against the Italian . This is another chapter in an international marriage that resulted in misery and disappointment. The grounds for the early hearing are that the case has been on the docket for more that six months and that Frederic Marlani, the husband, has made no answer whatever to the application of his wife. Judge Ford will take up the motion made by Mrs. Marlani Thursday morning, and, if he allows the claim,' the case can be heard within ten days. Mrs. Marlani is a very handsome, vivacious woman, inheriting much of her father's determination, spirit and originality. From present Indications Marian! has decided to let her secure a divorce by default

THOUSANDS OF CATTLE DIE Great Live Stock Losses on Western Ranges.
Denver, Colo., Dec. 3. Thousands of cattle on the ranges In Colorado are reported to be starving with the prospect that there will be an unprecedented loss to cattle men during the winter which opened early and caught stockmen unprepared. Feed is selling at almost prohibitive prices in the range districts, hay now bringing $23 to ?30 per ton. Dr. Charles Lamb state veterinarian, says cattle are already in the condition they usually show in February, after they have been forced to pick the ranges bare for subsistence. In the Park range district the first snow, which fell early in October, still covers the ranges and hundreds of cattle perished in the first storm. This number was increased to tens of thousands in the storm of the past few days. The temperature fell below xero last night east of the continental divide and caused great suffering.
"The pneumonia days have come," said Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the State Board of Health yesterday. Dr. Hurty declares the statement a true one because cold weather has come, which means that the people will house themselves more closely than before, and get their bodies in condition for the disease. To warn the people of the state against the danger, he is preparing some information in pamphlet form for general circulation, the advance sheets of which were in his hands.
Advice of Dr. Hurty. Dr. Hurty's warning states that in
December, the pneumonia month, not less than 230 persons, now well and strong, will die of pneumonia in the state of Indiana. This has been the
rate in previous Decembers. He says, "Be temperate In drink and food, sleep
not less than eight hours In an extra well ventilated bedroom, and don't ride inside steam or trolley cars when
the air is foul. To breathe foul air is a good way to lower the body's dis
ease resisting powers."

DRY
He gives the following sarcastic advice: "To bring the disease whenever you want it. drink freely of stimulants, take a few cocktails or highballs, many
cups of coffee and many cups of tea every day eat quantities of meat and salad, dig into society hard and ex
haust your strength; practice all kinds
of Intemperance, be sure to keep out
of the fresh air; don't ventilate your bedrooms, library and office, and ride
in the close, thrice breathed air of the
trolley cars. If doing all these
things doesn't bring you pneumonia, then you are indeed extra strong. So
many business men have pneumonia.
They attend a convention, enjoy a big
feed, spend much time In the hotel buffet with tobacco smoke and bad
aid, and then go home in a sleeping car berth with curtains tightly drawn. Pneumonia has been termed 'the Capntain of the Men of Death.' It is increasing in the cities at a rapid rate, and slowly increasing in the country. A very large proportion of pneumonia cases which recover, afterward die of consumption."
Chinese Dubious About the
New Japanese-American Agreement.
SOME OPPOSITION IN JAPAN
Pekin, Dec. 3. The entry of the
United States into the circle of nations that have arranged dual agreements has caused surprise but, while making secure the transqullity of the
possessions in the Pacific of the United States and Japan, the agreement
is not regarded at Pekin as in any way offering a solution for the Chi
nese situation.
It Is pointed out here that the ad
vantages now held by the Japanese would enable discrimination in favor
of that nation against the world,
which the "open door" pledges do not aftect.
The action of the United States is
regarded as a sequel to the fleet's tour, whereby China in a measure is compensated for what has been con
sidered a snub on the part of the United States sending only eight warships to Amoy, and it places moral strictures upon Japan with regard to any resigns that country might have had in China.
OPPOSITION IS SHOWN. Japanese Newspapers Dislike the New Contract.
Tokyo, Dec. 3. Following the pub
lication of the official text of the
notes which were exchanged by the Japanese and American governments the newspapers generally applaud their contents, but considerable criticism is made, especially by the opposition organs. The papers claim that the question of emigration and naturalization should have been settled by the exchange of notes. The general tone of comment is highly gratifying, but the opposition organs are using the occasion to attack the government on the ground that what Is called the conclusion of the note glvej Japan no advantage.

GET RELIEF FROM FLOOD Government Refused to Blow Up Levee to Save Pine Bluff, and Some Residents Acted in Defiance
Pine Bluff, Ark., Dec. 3. The sound
of a tremendous explosion was heard
last night at 9:30 o'clock coming from the point, one mile opposite the city, where the current of the raging Arkansas river is guided against the city's levee.
Instantly the streets thronged with people, who rushed out to learn where
the levee had been crevassed In order
to ward off further destruction. It was discovered that some one, unofficially, had set off the explosive. What the definite effect will be cannot be ascertained at this hour. Watchers at the shore, however, declare the stream has fallen slightly, which gives cerdence to the belief that the Explosion was for the purpose of tearing away that part of the levee which the government refused "to remove. Early in the week the city appealed to the government to blow up a crevassed levee In order to save the city from the rising flood, which was undermining the buildings along the shore. The government refused, and yesterday the citltens in mass meeting decided to blow up the levee on their own hook. However, last night's act Is not regarded aa official or ord
ered by the mass meeting, but Is believed to have been the act of one or two men who have taken the matter Into their own hands. General Superintendent Maxwell, of the St. Louis Southwestern railroad, today placed its employes at the disposal of the Citizens' committee. The students of the Arkansas Branch Normal college volunteered their services and are at work protecting threatened property.
