Society OF the County Of New York and the
other organizations 10 which he belonged
DIR. Byron was known as the hero Of
Swinburne island. The fearless way in
which I'm September, 1892, he went to the
island where cholera infected immigrants
and suspects were quartered by the hun
dreds and worked and studied the disease
excited the admiration OF physicians all
over the United States. Similar work I'm
Italy and other cholera infested countries
In Europe had already won him reputa-
ton on the other side Of the Atlantic, and
despite his youth he stood In the very
highest class as n bacteriologist
In his original work DIR. Byron made
special advance in two subjects He stud
led with interesting results the forms Of
the micro organisms which produce ma
larial fevers, and nc made valuable discov-
cries about the bacteria of leprosy. Lep-
rosy has not long been known as a disease
produced by bacteria. Among the inves-
LEGATIONS in various parts of the world
which have enlarged the knowledge Of
medical men ON this disease DIR. Byron's
have proyed as valuable as any. Among
, other interesting results Of his operations
! he produced cultures OF leprous bacilli-
that is with some of the bacilli Of leprosy
. in his possession he produced leprosy In
his laboratory in q gelatin medium, upon
= which the bacilli act tho same as they do
on the human system. DR.. Byron also
made extensive studies In smallpox, and,
although he never wrote any books ON the
subject Of archaeological diseases, he
wrote many papers on the subject and lee
oturod on 1t frequently before medical men,
While experimenting at the Loomis lab
roratory In New York with tubercle bacilli
lhe contracted consumption. He discovered
his condition on March 18, 1894, when he
hhad been infected "a month. DR.. Byron
nnever recovered from his work on Swim
bburne island, anhwhen he knew that he
was stricken with consumption no said
that he was afraid that familiarity with
dangerous bacteria had made him care
aess. Some Of the bacteria, he said, must
6nave become liberated In the atmosphere.
Drdinarily they are left In glass tubes or
BOTTLES, and SO long as they are wet are
mot dangerous. York Sun.

While Mrs. Cleveland is n domestic
woman she had at one time All ambition
TO play golf, but when tho matter was
broached 10 Mr.. Cleveland he firmly but
kindly declined to consider it, both be-
cause he did not like it us recreation

that 1t was an undiSniiied amusement
for tho wife Of a president Of the Unit
ed States. When Mrs. Carlisle was first
considering bicycling and before she had
become III adept ut it, Mrs Cleveland
had the idea that possibly she would
like to ride bicycle. The suggestion of
this to the president met with the same
response as the golf idea SO Mrs Cleye-
