In the GAZETTE’S editorial yesterday, anent the Union Manufacturing com- pany’s condition, the omission of a line resulted in conveying an entirely dif- ferent meaning from that intended as it apparently‘reflected upon the finan- cial or business management, when it was to the mechanical or practial man- ufacturing management inside the mill that the factory’s misfortune was im- puted. The sentence should have read thus: . “It is, however and doubtless sub- stantially, explained by the want of capable administration in the manu- facturing department of the mill.” .+_____ Thanksglvlng Dav. To—morrow. To-morrow, by State and National proclamation, is to be our great annual family festival. To the young and light hearted, Thanksgiving day is com- ing to be more and more, a mere jo- cund holiday, but to pater and mater families, it means the reunion of their children and loved ones from far and near, at the old hearth-stone and around the “home” table, Thus is cherished and kept alive, the tenderest memories and associations of our human lives. It preserves our sacred family organi‘ zation and ties, and thus strengthens the bonds of our civil government and makes better citizens of us all. But Thanksgiving day would fall of its highest benefactions did it not also awaken in every heart a deeper love of our neighbor, and a more helpful sym- pathy for those upon whom the heavy hand of poverty has fallen, in this glo- rious land of peace and plenty. The devout will “assemble in their usual places of worship and give grate- ful praise and thanksgiving to God for His manifold mercies,” as recited in the official proclamation, but the truth will still remain, that he loves God best, who best loves and helps his fel- lowmen. So let one and all, seek out the needy and make ourselves deserv- ing the blessings we enjoy, by doing such good to others as we have oppor- tunity. ., "Oh what a world this would be— If less mindful of self, Each esteemed his neighbor a brother, And whenever he did a bit good to'him- self, He did a bit good to another.” Thompson-Buttery.

Dr. Tracer-Says'lth'e Jail. is .3. Dis- , graoeto the Town. Recommends Good Water. The following is in substance the re. port of Health ofiiccr W. J. Tracey, in conformity with the public acts of 1893. Mr. Tracy was appointed health officer the fifteenth of October 1893. During the second week in December be caused published in the local papers. Since that time he reports the num- ber of contagious deseases as follows: diphtheria, 9; scarlet fever, 16; mea- sles, 9; typhoid fever, 4. Within twenty-four hours after the report of each of the above cases was received the house was yisited. In cases of typhoid fever the portion of the house occupied by the patient was quarantined . _ During the sickness in such cases every precaution was taken to limit the spread of the disease by the isolation of the patient and the use of proper disen- fectants. After convalescence or death of the patient from contagious diseases the house,clothing etc,were thoroughly disinfected by fumigation, beiling of clothing, washing of furniture, walls, etc. When patients have died from such sickness the body has been buried With- The funeral has been strictly private, no one but the immediate family being allowed. In reference to sanitary inspection fifteen complaints were received divi- ded as follows: water closets 7; cess- pools, 4; garbage, etc, 3 stagnant water, 1 . In thirteen of the cases or- ders for the abatement of the some were issued, from which no appeals were taken. The following is a report verbatim of the paper in refernce to the public buildings. I paid a visit to the jail for the pur- pose of sanitary inspection. The cells were found to be in a cleanly condition, having been recently whitewashed and painted. The building itself is very defective and lacks the necessary facil- ities for the protection and comfort to which a prisoner is entitled. The rooms are not properly ventilated. One.apart- ment containing three cells and a water- closet is furnished with one small Win. dow ; this one is high from the floor and so well protected by grating and bars as to almost shut out God’s sun- light. The prisoners occupying these cells are not only deprived of a suflii cient amount of fresh air and sunlight, but that which they receive is contam- inated by the foul odors arising from the closet. This structure is a disgrace to the town. It should be either torn down and a new one erected or“such alterations made as to provide for proper ventilation and an addition built for a bathroom and closet. As to public schools he says: Child- ren afflicted with diseases of a conta~ gious nature and those occupying the same house are not allowed to attend school until danger from contagion has passed. As to water and ice he reports : Dur- ing the summer the water in our reser- voir has been very low. We have had more sickness and a higher death rate in proportion to our population than any other town in the state. Whether the low condition of our reservoir and the prevalence of intestinal diseases at- tended with such a high mortality was a mere coincidence, or‘bears the rela. tion of cause and effect, I will not at- tempt to answer. Complaint has been received that ice dealers were using water taken from the watering tanks for cleaning their ice. On investiga- tion the report was found to be true and orders were}: issued that the prac- tice must cease. The number of resident physicians is reported as 22; alopathic, 15; homeo- pathic, 4; electric, 3 (one graduate) ; midwives,3. Ofa public hospital he says “We have no building controlled by the town for the cure of contagious dis- eases." , The following appears in the report in reference to public health: “The most important thing for the promo- tion and preservation of health in a community is a bountiful supply of pure water. During the past summer we have had almost a water famine. We have had also, I believe, the most unhealthy summer the town has ever experienced. It is absolutely necessary that provision should he made at once for an abundant water supply,unneces— sary delay in this matter is criminal for by it the health and lives of the community may be exposed.” ‘ coo — —-—————-—. - Amusements.

These men are charged with the mur~ tier of Pullman Conductor John Brown on the morning of Nov. 19 at a fewmln- lites past 4 o’clock. , Brown was a new conductor on ' the territory .run and seems to have had some premonition of his fate, as he said that night if he ever reached Kansas City alive reached Fort Smith the train was notified that a holdup was expected at Handon or McKay. Guards were placed on the train at Fort Smith, which place the train left at 3 o’clock Monday morning. At 4:10 o’clock McKay tank was 'reached. It is half a mile from McKay.

When the train reached McKay, a shot was heard in the rear end of the train, but no attention was paid to it except by Con- ductor Morgan, who, after the train had started, went back and examined the pis- tol belonging to Pullman Porter Barker and found it loaded all round. Two citi- zone of McKay say they saw the body of Brown thrown off the train afterthe shot we]? fired. he supposition is that the Pullman conductor was shot While standing on the plathrm between the special and sleeper, and’that it was from a stray bullet.
