PAST WEEK
UNIVERSITY OF OP.KC.ON, Jan. 12
The typhoid fever epidemic that
was reported to be gaining ground
In Hugcno fast abating. Within the
last three weeks only two new enses
have been reported and all that are
sick with tho disease are convalescing. I
There seems to be no further dnimer!
from the spread of the disease, ror
every menus to prevent tho spread I
of the ccntnujlon Is being used. Es
pecially Is this true concerning the
students. The faculty provides In
spection for all boarding and club
houses. Furthermore, thoy deliver
boiled water In sealed cans to all the
places where students live. A com
mittee of the faculty have been ap
pointed to see that certain rules of
conduct of tho students aro observed.
Hating down town In boarding houses
wheie city water Is used Is absolute
ly forbidden. Any student breaking
Ibis rule will bo expelled.
The new filter plant similar to the
one In use at Oregon City, Is Hearing
completion. City water of Oregon
City analyzes purer than Hull Hun
water In Portland. So with the com
pletion of tho new 'filter here, the
faculty fear no further danger.
As far as the small boys nre con
cerned the basement of the proposed
Hotel Medford has taken the place
of the Kntntorluin rink.
The pool of water In tho basement,
which Is the only part of the build
ing completed, has been coated with
two Inches of Ice by the recent cold
weather. A largo crowd of young
sters gnthered there in the afternoon
and enjoyed a sknje. The eastern
lads could be distinguished from the
natives by the adroitness in cutting
antics, dodging around the concrete
pillars of tho foundation, while the
Medford boy, less adept, furnished
fun by his frequent tumbles.
