THE GREAT WHITE PLAGUE.
Women Teachers Have Good Reason
For Dreading Tuberculosis.
That teachers nre especially prone to
tuberculosis Is the statement made by
the bureau of educational hygiene of
the city of New York. This department
says that this disease Is 20 per cent
more prevalent among teachers than
among others of corresponding sex and
age and that about half of all deaths
among women teachers Is caused by
tuberculosis, and this In spite of the
fact that teachers belong to a better
hygienic grade than the general aver
age.
Strenuous, nerve taxing work that
causes physical exhaustion and nerve
breakdown Is given as the main cause.
Termnn states that "four hours of ac
tual teaching represent about eight
hours of ordinary office work." What
is probably the second cause is lack
of sufficient rest and regular exercise
in the open air.
Speaking along this Hue, the state
board of health says: "The wan, tired
look that usually marks the teacher,
especially about the close of school, is
too often a condition of serious conse
quence. It may be just a 'tired, run
down condition" or a case of 'wornout
nerves' or both, but these are predis
posing causes of tuberculosis as much
or more than others.
"Unless the teacher Is wise," saya
the board, "and as quickly as possible
overcomes this tired feeling and re
gains her usual state of health and
vigor she subjects herself to an open
risk against tuberculosis as well as to
other diseases.
"What the wise teacher will do Is
to avoid overwork and a nervous strain
and see that she gets sufficient rest
dally as well as daily exercise In the
open air. This wornout condition that
is too often the beginning of a long,
sad story Is easy to prevent To pre
vent it should be the teacher's first
dutv."
Tart Retort.
Every small town has Its prominent
citizen who appears before the city fa
thers and "talks right out in meetin'."
Not every town, however, has among
its councilors a member with sufficient
moral backbone to answer back, as did
John Hammer of a western town whose
name is of no consequence. Concluding
his arraignment, the prominent citizen
hurled this thunderbolt at the board,
"I'd-sooner put up as a candidute for a
lunatic asylum than put up for the
"town council."
"Well, you'd stand a much better
chance of getting In," dryly responded
Mr. nammer.—Argonaut.
Why Worry?
If you're afflicted with the worry
habit, consider this old Chinese prov
erb: "The legs of the stork are long,
the legs of the duck are short; you
cannot make the legs of the stork
short, neither can you make the legs
of the duck long. Why worry?"
Word From Br'er Williams.
Dar's lots o' troubles what you kin
git 'round; an' ef you can't git 'round
'em you kin climb over; an' ef you
can't climb over you kin crawl under—
ef you takes de right time. So, dar
you is, an' whar is you?—Atlanta Con
stitution.
Good Scheme.
"How do Jack and Jeatr. e ever man
age to scrape a living?"
"Why. he makes the money first, and
she makes It last."
A man who dares waste an hour of
time has not learned the value of life.

human villainy.
Farmer Johnson brought us In
a peck of sweet apples for bak
ing the other day, but by mistake
left them at tho office of the Ga
zette.
The human hyena who runs that
sheet knew well enough that they
were for us. but he gobbled onto
them and sent them to his home.
Could human villainy go further?
GOT OFF EASY. ^
Nearly three years ago we told
Judge Wakefield, who dropped in
hero from Missouri, that he hadn't
struck the right town and ought to
keep right on walking.
We didn't feel bad because he
didn't subscribe for the Kicker,
but the way he wore his elbows out
on the various bars and his firm
attitude before free lunch counters
was agin him.
Ho also made himself very dis
agreeable In other ways, and our
advice was given In a brotherly
way.
He refused to heed It, however,
and the other night the boys put a
rope necktie on him and pulled
him up and let him down until
he expressed great willingness to
move on.
He will probably nave a som
throat all winter, but he can con
sole himself that It Is no worse.
We watch things pretty closely In
this town, and we never fall to
catch the drift of public opinion.
When we come out In leaded
brevier and advise a man to look
for another pasture, there's nothing
funny about It.
It's a very serious business, and
the rope la hanging on a peg be
hind us.
A WARM WELCOME.
r\7E received word the other day
' * from Colonel John Fairbanks,
who Is running a cactus farm about
twenty miles west of this town,
that he would try and como In some
time within a fortnight and shoot
us full of lead.
The colonel seems to have got
riled because we blasted his polit
ical ambition by proving that he
sold himself to both parties last
year and ought to be rode out of
Arizona on a three cornered rail.
We shall be home every day In the
week for the next month, and the
colonel needn't mind knocking on
the door when he calls.
He may Just walk right In and
begin popping away, and if he
downs U9 no one in the office will
do anything to prevent his getting
away.
We can feel our private graveyard
aching and yawning for another
victim.
We did feel like going off on a
little Jaunt for a few days, but we
gladly give It up.
Business before pleasure.
MUST MEND HIS WAYS.
Right now it may be well to say
a few words to Hank White, who
acts as bouncer Tor the Red Dog
saloon.
He has tried to kill three or four
men Jn the last four weeks, and we
believe him to be the party who
flred a dead rabbit through our bed
room window one night last week.
Unless he makes a great change
in his conduct the boys will get
up a surprise party on him soon,
and these little affairs are never
pulled off without some one getting
BIG YEAR FOB
ALASKA MIS
[ Territorial Mining) Inspector Wil
liam Maloney arrived from the
south r»n the Admiral Evans on
Not. 28. He left Nome on the
last boa' from there and spen*- sev
eral days in Seattle before com
ing norMi. Mr. Moloney; will Bpendi
the winter "on the coast.
Mr. Maloney left Juneau June 23,
an,T went to the interior on tie first
?M)at dcwn, tto river from !Wh.ite
liorse. He has been spending his
t'me In the Iditarod, Ruby, Fair
banks, Hot Springs, Tolovana and
Marshall city section. He reports
a very successful season, in all sec
tions this past summer. At first,
the water was short in several sec
tions. but later the rains came in
in !■ e bills and there was plenty of
water. •
At Nome the bifr cleanuu was
made by the Pioneer Mining Com
pany, mostly from the Portland
bench, where that company is work
ing a big luydraulia plant.
"They made a $200,000 clean
ui just before I got there," Mr.
Maloney said.
"The Marshall City camp is a
good one as far as one creek is
concerned, but if no other pay
s'reak 'a discovered this winter the
caino will bo practically deserted:
after next summer.
"They have one very, good) creek
with abcut six claims on it, but so
far nothing) more bas beea found.
There are abou* 500 men pros
Dectinf in the section mostly from
th® Iditarod and Ruby, ection, and
thev fully expect to findi something
before the winter is over. The
claims ibeing worked, turned out a
the Iditarod] and Rujby sections and
nex- summer will undoubtedly turn
ou* another one, but unless some
thing more is found, the camp will
never be a large one."
