ON MARCH 28, 1886, the Eagle reported, “Wilcox, Arizona, March 27. General [George] Crook, accompanied by his personal staff, Lieutenant [Marion P.] Maus’ command and Apache scouts, today met Geronimo and all the Chiricahuas twenty-five miles southeast of San Bernardino Springs, Sonora, Mex. General Crook would have no argument with Geronimo, but told him he must decide at once on unconditional surrender or fight to the death. Geronimo begged for the lives of himself and the hostiles. His band offered to surrender unconditionally whether Geronimo does or not.” ON MARCH 28, 1915, the Eagle reported, “Dr. S.S. Goldwater, commissioner of public health, yesterday announced that ‘Typhoid Mary’ Mallon, who, the commissioner said, was ‘the greatest typhoid germ carrier in the country,’ had been located in Corona, L.I., and this afternoon quarantined on North Brothers Island. ‘Typhoid Mary,’ the commissioner said, was released from North Brothers Island in 1910, after she had been there three years. Her case is a remarkable one in medical history; although not ill herself, she carries the typhoid infection with her.” ON MARCH 28, 1922, the Eagle reported, “The Brooklyn Army Supply Base, at 58th St. and 1st Ave., is in a fair way of becoming the greatest booze storage warehouse in the country. Already much has been accomplished toward bringing this to pass. In pursuance of orders issued from Washington, all the seized liquor in the hands of the Federal Prohibition authorities in Brooklyn was quietly transferred from the private storehouse of Burns & Hurley on 15th St., to the Army Base. A smaller amount taken by the customs officials also went there. The greater part of an entire building at 59th St. and 1st Ave. has been assigned by the Army authorities for storing away Volstead Act evidence. The move was made primarily in the interest of economy. Private warehouse charges were running up continually and the government will be able to eliminate these by making use of the surplus space in the Army buildings.” ON MARCH 28, 1947, the Eagle reported, “Washington, March 28 (U.P.) — Representative J. Parnell Thomas, chairman of the House Committee on Un-American Activities, said today he has ‘definite’ proof that the American Communist party is directed from Moscow. The New Jersey Republican declined to elaborate on the nature of the evidence but said it would be disclosed in a report to be made public ‘today or tomorrow.’ ‘It will show definitely,’ he said, ‘that the Community party in America is an agency of a foreign government.’ FBI Chief J. Edgar Hoover told the committee previously that the American Communist party was a puppet outfit directed from Moscow. He said Communist orders came from Paris but that they were only relayed from Russia. Thomas also reaffirmed his intention to have the committee make a ‘thorough’ investigation of Communist infiltration of the Hollywood movie capital. Another member urged the committee to give first-priority to exposing Communists in government and labor unions.”
