General Lees appointment is known now
to have greater significance than Is apparent
on the surface. He not only goes to Cuba
as Consult General at salary OF $4,000 year,
BIT Ia instructed to Investigate the strength
of TIC nontending armies and the progress
made by the insurgents and send his reports
without delay to the State Department. 1t
Is supposed that he will leave for his post
with as little delay as possible, owing to the
anxiety of the Administration to be informed
upon the situation.
The appointment OF General Lee as Con-
sul-General at Havana causes vacancy In
the Lynchburg (Va.) collectorship OF inter
nal revenue. This vacancy has been promptly
filled by the nomination, at the same time,
of william 81. Fowle, who Is now the chief
clerk of the office under General Lee.
Fitzhugh Lee was born In Clermont, Fair
fax County, Va, November 19, 1885, and Is
consequently now In his sixty-flrst year. he
graduated at West Point in 1856, and WAS
Commissioned second lieutenant in the Sec
ond Cavalry. Being severely wounded In q
fight with Indians, he was in May, 1860,
made an instructor Of cavalry at West
Point. At the outbreak Of the Civil War he
resigned his commission and entered the
Confederate service. He was given COM
mand Of the whole cavalry corps Of the Army
OF Northern Virginia in March, 1865, and
month later surrendered to General Meade.

DEATH TO HUMAN PLAQUES.

of Roentgen Rays.

Wonderful Results Got by the Application
of Koentgen Rays.
Professors W. P. Pratt and Hugh Wight
man, respectively electro-therapeutist and
bacterlologist OF Bennett Medical College,
Chicago. have practically proved that the
Roentgen rays will kill: Bacilli of cholera,
bacilli of diphtheria. bacllli Of influenza.
bacilli OF glanders, bacilli Of pneumonia,
bacilli Of typhoid, bacill OF tuberculosis,
bacilli of anthrax.
Hereafter, epidemics will be impossible.
The professors have put the germs OF these
eight most deadly diseases through the test.
A week has elapsed, and the germs have been
fed and nurtured with the greatest care, but
they have failed to propagate or spread,
proving they are dead or have been stunned.
Diphtheria was slain outright. There Is no
doubt OF the effect in this case.
It Is admitted by the two physicians, who
have spent day and night IN the laboratory,
that they have been startled by the dtscov-
cries. They have worked with the germs IN
the test tubes. They maintain that success
secured under this disadvantage predicts
much more marvellous effects when the same
attack shall be made upon those enemies 10:
Gated In the huma1 body. The method will
be tried at once.
