WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.—Officials of the marine hospital service are working in harmonious co-operation with the State officials of Florida in dealing with the yellow fever situation in Key West. Such information as has been received by | Dr. Wyman, the surgeon general, shows | that there are a number of cases of yel- low fever there, but mild in type. Dr. | Wyman to-day received from Key West a list of persons who have left that city | recently, together with the date and man- ner of their departure and their destina- | tion. Dr. Wyman says that while there | 1s no occasfon for alarm concerning these | people, ‘ordinary precautions would re- uire that they be kept under observation | for ten days. The War Department | authorities hope to be able to get the | troops away from Key West by Tuesday. | Two telegrams were received by Sur-| geon General Wyman to-day from the | | Hampton Soldiers’ Home, where there | were recently many cases of vellow fever. | ce in all mu- st liberal self- Dr. Vickers, in charge. says every man | at the home has b nspected, and no | infected or susp! discovered. ‘ ADAMS STILL MISSING. | 1 The police are deligently endeavoring | to find Kelly, the partner of Casey, the Austrajian crook who is locked up In the City Prison. His reported death in New | Orleans was circulated by Casey and his | friends in order to deceive the officlals, | It is known that Chief Lees has received | positive information that Kelly is in the East und that he is accompanied by an- | other crook who came to this city with | the gang. Last night the head of the! Police Department sent a number of dis patches East asking the authorities to tr; | and locate Kelly. Casey was taken from his cell last even- ing and subjected to a rigorous examina- | tion, He refused to reveal the where- abouts_of Kelly, except to say that he was still alive. It is expected that Handsome Harry | Adams will be located to-day. He is sup- | posed to be in hiding near this city. ta | case he is arrested the police intend to | use him as a witness against Casey. —_————— How to Choose Good Potatoes. It is not generally known that heavy | potatoes are usually the best and the most nutritious, and that the waxy and | soft kinds are in every way less profit- able. An old-fashioned method of test- | ing the quality of a potato is to put it | into a strong solution of salt; if it is | good it will sink to the bottom of the vessel which contains the salt and { water, and if the tuber is inferior it will |float on the surface of the water.— { nomes in this ¢ | ditches during the dry | 1ast year. | of mosquito netting, 1200 DEATH'S CALL COMES VERDICT AT TO J.

They Supply the Red Man With fis Necessities and Luxuries. The United States Indian warehouse was removed this week from State and Sixteenth streets to 235-247 Johnson street. This year about 15,000 pounds of freight will probably be handled by the warehouse, as against 10,000,000 pounds The Indian ware..ouse is a big distributing house for supplies for the Indian schools and agencies operated by the Government. There are about 30 of these schools scattered over the face of the country from Maine to Mexico. Most of them are, however, in the West. The instftutions are clas: as contract, day and boarding-schools. In the past the Government has held to the custom of contracting with the missionaries of cer- tain denominations to operate schools for the instruction of the Indians, but this policy apparently has received its doom and is to be discontinued within a few | Years. Meantime the Government is put- ting up its own schoolhouses, and this | means increased expenditures through the Indian warehouse. The variety_of articles bought for Poor Lo, as the Indian is usually referred to by the warehouse authorities, is very large and includes almost everything devised by the ingenuity of man, from a safety pin to a steam thrasher. It is difficult to associate many of the articles shipped | | | i | from the warehouse with the Indian as | | he is pictured in the mind of the average To meet the progressive needs of white. s of the nation the copper-colored W: the Government made the modest chas last vear of 7800 boxes of shoe polish. More than 100 eight-day shipped from the warehouse to make glad the ears of Indian pupils, and 30,000 vards of -elastic_were distributed. Whether the latter will be made into garters or siung- shots is not of record. One thousand dozen fine combs are furnished to keep the ra- ven locks of the children of nature in proper condi were forwarded along with the combs and 25,000 pairs of suspenders. 7 Other small orders executed for Uncle Sam through his Chicago warehouses, and for the benefit of his subjugated wards, are 48,000 linen handkerchiefs, 10,000 yards ards of ‘hair- cloth” for puffed sleeves, several saw- mills, 120 sewing machines, 14,400 boxes of axle grease, 37 lawn mowers, 32 laundry clocks were | ure | | | tion, and 72,000 safety pins | stoves, model cooking tables, kindergarten | “gifts” and schoolbooks and supplies in startling quantities. No person can pe- ruse the list of things shipped from the warehouse and not be convinced that the reservation Indian is becoming more rap- jdly civilized than the young men who comprise the membership of the Greek- letter “frats” of the country.—Chicago Evening Post. — e The Barber Was All Right. “After being shaved in a Chicago hotel barber shop,” said the man from South Bend, “I walked out and down the street and entered another shop and took a chair. The barber lathered and scraped me without a word, and fifteen minutes later I submitted myself to a third. He lathered and rubbed as if T had not been shaved for a month, and just as he took up the razor I asked: “Didn’t you notice that I had been shaved twice this morning?” “Yes, sir, he replied.” “But you are going to again.” *“ No, sir. I suppose you came in here to get the skin taken off and part with shave me some of your cheek.’"—Philadelphia | Inquirer. ————————— An Increase Anticipated.
