Samples wore recently taken and examined by the state health officials from nearly every town in Missouri and the result shown by the tests is astonishing. The water of Chillicothe is rated as being clear and odorless and containing 5859 bacteria in one- fourth teaspoon of water. This multiplicity of germs may seem nerve-harrowing at first thought but Chillicothe's water seems pure compared to that used by the citizens of other for example, Aurora, which- contains 188,6015 bacteria to each quarter of a teaspoon. The Trontou citizens, evcrytime they take a spoonful, of Grand river fluid a bsoib" 78,120 bacteria into their systems.

One of the tests of the state officials was to inject a small portion of the water into the liver of a' guinea pig. If the animal died the water pronounced injurious but if it lived after the operation had been performed the water was rated as healthful. The guinea pig, according to the Bulletin, thrived on the sample of water from this The water used by Chillicothe compares favorably with that of the cities in the state: The bad condition of the water in some places is due, not so much to the quality of the unadulterated liquid as the unclean reservoirs and bad filters. zia Bales.

Glore of this city for a bank building, were accepted. The specifications call for a brick building 20 by 40 feet. The cost of the building, including the furniture and fixtures, is estimated at about The foundation of the proposed structure has been completed and the directors hope to have the institution ready for business by the middle of July. The purchasing committee, R. M.

The score was 9 to 8 and the winning run came over the plate with only one man out. The game opened up auspiciously for the visitors who chalked up five scores while the new Athletics were in a trance of stage fright. Lizzie Bales made the Athletics believe that he was a'real pitcher and fanned them like chaff with his dinky dowu shoot until the home team came to in the seventh inning. Then alas, poor Lizzie. He got his all in a bunch.

It clouded up and rained base hits and green legs followed each other over the pan like sheep. When the dust cleared away seven runs had been made and Lizzie fell in a faint at the water trough. It was a grand rally and brought the home team within one of the visitors. In the ninth Romig started another onslaught with a base on balls, a beautiful steal of second and a fast dash home on a short single. This tied the game and when the winning run came ovar the plate a moment later as a result of consecutive hits the demonstration was only equalled by the wild enthusiasm during the seventh inning rally.

It was a creditable up-hill game and developed the fact that whatever else the local team may be its members cannot be called quitters. The team, exhibited ginger and headwork, two qualities conspicuously looking in former teams. The most pleasing feature to the fans was the playing of the fine points by Romig, Billings and McCright. The former laid down a pretty pair of bunts, ran the bases with rare skill and coached each batter, instilling snap anct aggressiveness into the men. Billings and Me Cright caught two men at the home -plate by clever whip work.

Arthur pitched a good game and after his team settled down behind him and be began to learn the weakness of the opposing batters he twirled masterly ball. The Fosters are the fastest team which has visited Chillicothe in many a season. They hit like" fiends. Stifiy Weianer carried "OM his threat to hit the ball and made three sizzling singles. Bales pitched well with the'exception of the fatal seventh.

Umpire Van Lanningham gave satisfaction, hardly a serious protest made by either side.

The writ; of certiorari, applied for by the authorities of Salt Lake City, Utah, for the retention and extradition of Sherman Stanberry, charged with mayhem, resulted in the upholding of the ruling of Probate Judge Umphalbaugh, who released the defendant-on a writ of habeas corpus last Friday. Prosecuting Attorney Whitaker and Sheriff Emery of Salt Lake applied and secured the writ of certiorari from Judge Alexander Saturday in the hopes of securing a reversal of the verdict of Judge I Umphalbaugh. Judge Alexander only took twenty minutes to dispose of the case. The hearing- was called at eight o'clock.

Stanberry was represented by Attorney John Taylor, and Judge Umphalbaugh by Frank Sheetz and A. B. Davis. The two Salt Lake officers appeared for their state. The writ was dismissed by the judge on account of the fact that he was in vacation and had no jurisdiction.

Had he been sitting in regular or special session in this circuit the matter might have resulted differently. As it was he upheld the ruling of "Judge Um- phalbaugh. "We have done all we could," said Mr. hitaker to a CONSTITUTION reporter in discussing the outcome of the case Monday morning. "Our superiors will have to be satisfied with the result of the affair." He spoke of the "nice boys" he and his companion, the sheriff, had met during their stay in Chillicothe and "added that their trip east had not been barren of pleasure.

Mr. Whitaker and Mr. Emery left Chillicothe Monday afternoon for Kansas City, whence they will return homo. Stanberry is now a free man and unless he returns to the Mormon state he may feel secure from arrest. He was arrested here on Governor Dockery's warrant last Thursday and was released on a habeas corpus writ on the grounds that he was not a fugitive- from justice.
