BATTLE CREEK WATER KILLS GUINEA PIG

THE GUINEA PIG FORMERLY RESIDED IN ANN ARBOR

And Was Killed by the Drinking Water in University Laboratory, But People Still Drink Water.

Battle Creek don't know whether to drink water from its hydrants or not.  People bathe in Lake Goguac, the source of the water supply, and the supreme court says they have a right to do so.  Wells were drilled and a new supply obtained. As an after thought a sample of the water from the two wells was sent to the University here to be analyzed.  Wednesday the analysis was returned with the statement that a guinea pig which was given the water to drink died in 24 hours, but the professor thought that Battle Creek people were so tough that the water would not hurt them.
