Discoverer CT the Yellow Fever
Germ Will 1,!i Abou: His
Serum,
The Use of Which He Thinks
Will Render the Disease
Harmless.
The Year Since the MicrObe
Was Found Devoted to
Experiments.

New YORK, Oct. IA dispatch to
The Herald from Montevideo says: DR..
6anarelli, who few months ago an
bounced his discovery Of the yellow
fever germ, now announces the discov.
cry Of serum which will, he declares,
make yellow fever harmless. He will
publish q pamphlet explaining his latest
discovery. The details will be with
held until DR.. Sanarelli officially notifies
the medical society Of Uruguay what he
has accomplished. DR.. Sanarelli en-
countered great difficulties before
he perfected his curative serum.
He made experiments on many animals,
including horses and oxen which had
been inoculated with fever virus. After
. years work he finally succeeded in
producing serum which he found
would immune inoculated animals. DIR.
Sanarelli is q noted bacteriologist Of
Italy. He attracted great attention in
the medical world some time ago when
he announced his discovery of the yell
low fever microbe. Since then he has
given all his time to finding q curative
serum and now believes he has sue
ceeded.
It. is expected that DR.. Sanerelli's
pamphlet explaining his latest discovery
will be published this week.

Rs 0ays Nature Chanee, and she Doss

ford, Pa. There is man down there
whom nature in her most gracious mood
simply has compelled to be lazy. All he
does day in and day out the. year round
Is to sit upon the bank Of one Of her
little creeks and watch nature slave for
him, IF he were to raise his finger, he
might undo all the skillful plotting that
has been done by her in his behalf.
Long ago this favored child-he's an
lrishman by birth and his name is
Michael Grath-discovered the folly Of
toiling for his living Before the dis
covery he owned little tract Of land
that was as sterile and barren as strip
Of the Jersey coast. He titled and
plowed until he was wrinkled and bent,
and all he got was barely enough to
keep body and soul together. But one
day he found that that barren little
strip Of land was oozing with oil. He
said nothing about it, but he redoubled
his efforts, and after awhile he had
enough money saved to put down q
well He struck oil the day the riggers
threatened to quit unless they received
their pay.
The well was not gusher It was
what is known in the oil regions as q
"small producer" and yielded ON an
average IL barrels day.
While Grath was looking about for
some method to pipe his oil the rains
came and swelled the tiny creek which
passed through his farm until it's course
was changed and it flowed by his well.
That was all the Irishman needed. At
practically no expense beyond the cost
Of cutting little timber from his land
he rugged up water wheel, and soon
nature was merrily pumping her treas
ures into neighboring tank owned by
one Of the big pipe lines, and Grath
was charging her work up to the COM
pany at so much barrel
When she had shaved long enough for
Grath to save some money, lie put down
another we'll, which, like the first,
proved to be a small producer The sup
ply from this we'll was pumped by the
same wheel into the same neighboring
tank, and the only increase in the Irish
mans labor was to charge double the
sum for the work nature was doing.
1t matters little to him what the
price Of oil may be. The cost Of produc-
ton worries him not at all Even with
it down to SO cents barrel he is sure
Of an income of sig per day, and that
is enough to meet all his needs. When
there is dollar oil, the Irishman wakes
rich fast, and his slave does the work
for him at the same rates. For years he
has watched her, and never once has
she gone on strike or asked for shorter
hours.-New York Press.

The Perfection to Which Fruits and Flow
ers Are Developing.

The Perfection to Which Fruits and Flow
ers Are Developing.
! The limit Of Improvement is not
found in producing fruits of great size,
beauty and sweetness There are other
desirable qualities that the horticulture
list is anxious to obtain, and toward
this end he is devoting his energies
One OF the most noticeable trends of the
science Of fruit culture is toward the
elimination of undesirable organs. The
thorns of some of the citrus fruit trees
and the prickles Of such small berry
bushes as the. gooseberry, blackberry
and raspberry are protuberances that
have outlived their usefulness and are
highly unpleasant. They not only pune.
ture the ripening fruits, but they often
make harvesting exceedingly inconven-
lent. Gardeners have long wished to
do away with these thorns and prickles,
but it is only comparatively recently
that systematic efforts have been made
to eliminate them.
The thorns are conspicuous organs Of
our cultivated plants that have ceased
to be of any value, for their original
purpose of protecting the plants from
animals has no force today in the gar
dens and fields They should have been
exterminated long ago. Through the
careful selection of plants that happen
to be thornless, stocks are obtained for
q new race of thornless plants. Others
are noted for the few thorns that grow
on them, and by judicious selection Of
seeds and gratis from these the same
work is continued Already gardeners
have cultivated raspberry and blackber-
~ canes that are entirely thornless, and
by grating improved varieties on these
the desired end will soon be reached.
The wild orange trees have many more
thorns ON them than the budded stock,
and the wild Florida lemons are thickly
studded with thorns, while the grated

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 14.-The fever
situation is no worse here, but at the
same time there is no rift showing
through the clouds and promise is not
bright for an immediate reopening OF
the avenues of industry. The record
for the day is 8 deaths and 80 new
cases. The new cases are, as usual,
widely scattered and have increased
somewhat the total number of cases un-
der treatment, but at the same time
there have been large number OF cases

icy was called to dispute the evidence
Dc DR.. II. w. Airport, the principal ex-
tbert for the defense. The youthful ap-
Spearing professor was loaded to the
Hmuzzle with information upon sesa-
Nmoids. metacarpals, femurs, temporals,
and other bones which combine to form
Sthe human and animal physical struc-
4ture. He had some hot shot for Dr..
sAllport and the other scientific gentle.
amen whose testimony. IL, accepted in
full, practically branded him as stupid

As . preliminary to DR.. Dorsey's on
slaught. policemen were called to i'm.
peach certain witnesses for the defense
who has identified = picture Of Mrs.
Luetgert a. that Of woman seen in
Kenosha, Wis, on May s, 4and 8.
Detective d. Ward Wallbaum testi-
fed that Matt Scholey Of Kenosha had
told him some weeks ago that the pho.
ture did not look like the woman
Scholey saw at Kenoshs. According to
the witness Scholey said he had not
noted the appearance Of the strange
woman he saw in Kenosha May 4, to be
able to identify her, much less photo
.graph.
Detectives DeCelle and Dean gave inn
peaching evidence with reference to
other Kenosha witnesses who said the
woman they saw was. to the best Of
their knowledge, Mrs. Luetgert.
Professor Mark Delafontaine was
called upon to impeach the evidence of
Professor Long Of the Northwestern
university with reference to bones. He
expressed views upon the subject in
scientific terms directly at variance
with the ideas Of Professor Long.
Professor Dorsey followed Professor
Delafontaine on the witness stand. and
had just got his impeaching battery in
good working order when it was dis
covered that DR.. Airport was not in
court. The defense desired that the
chief PSYCHOLOGIST Of Luetgert's side Of
the case be here to hear himself
roasted" and Professor Dorsey waa
withdrawn temporarily. :
The practical humiliation Of the tes.
timony Of Mary siemmering. together
with the impeachment Of William
Charles, LuetGert's business partner
and confidential friend, has had chill.
ing effect upon the defense. Luetgert
was morose and sullen. He admitted
to jail guard that the case looked bad
for him at present.
The state rested its case and court
was then adjourned until Monday when
the defense viii probably put on few
re.rebuttal witnesses. Then the argu.
ments to the jury will be given. These
will last six days. -,
