1t seems that the old inhabitants of

change of seasons. Anyway every in

soldier would give another version on

And so on.

30-year class stated that April is the
hottest and driast month, with posi-

also marked by showers, and in July,
the wet season is ready for business
July, August, September and October
are the rainy months, and during this
season the rain fails more or less con-

DEAD RESTORED TO LIFE.
Successful Experiment by DR.. Tuffier

viously accomplished this successfully
with numbers of warm blooded lower
animals. Associated with him in these
experiments are his assistant, DR.. Du-
mort; and DR.. Hallion of the College
de France. They state that they have
restored life to fifty animals. Recently
DIR. Tuffier was Iecturing in the Hos
'pital de la Pitie when word was
brought to him that one of the patients
had just died. This was Jean Soulie,
an artist aged "a. He died of appen-
dicitis. His previous health had been
fair and his heart was sound. The
man was scientifically dead" The
most delicate instruments failed to de-
tect either pulse or respiration. The
tests which surgeons know and which
are ahsolute-as for instance scorch-
ing the skim of one of the eXtremitieS-
were resorted to. The result of the test
was to show that the man was dead.

With carved scissors Dr. Tuffier in

THE QUARANTINE QUESTION.
Marine Hospital Service and the Re-
ported Fever at Key West.

Savannah, Ga, April H-Editor Morn
I be allowed to correct in your columns
the article of the writer of "A Voice From
Key West, raised against the marine hos
pital service" published in the Morning
News of April Il. in which the attempt Is
made TO place The blame on the marine
hospital service for announcing yellow
fever In Key West last summer. Such a
statement is positively in error, for this
report that it would no doubt become epi-
demic, If made at all, was made by no
marine hospital surgeon, nor do the re-
cords of the marine hospital service show
that any such prognosis was made. In
fact the first reports were received at the
war and navy departments from the sur
geons of the army and of the navy located
al Kew West and it was on their reports
that the war and navy departments took
the action which they did. On Aug. 16 Ma
rine Hospital Surgeon Guiteras wired that
three cases had been reported al the ma
Frne barracks, and on Aug. II he wired
that the agent of the state health author
ities DIR. sweetng, lis convinced and has
declared that the cases al the marine bar
racks are yellow fever.
A conference of six physicians in Key
West unanimously announced yellow fever.
etate Health officer Porter, himself, hur-
,ied to, tbe scene. and considered the cases
euf1ciently suspicious to declare quaran-
tine and held the island of Key West in
e,rict quarantine pending an investigation.
r. was then that two special experts of the
marine hosD!tal service, Surgeons Murray
and Glennan, arrived and made a careiui
cvoroination of the whole situation, re-
ouiring more than a week, ana passed
Judgment on the cases, and on Sept. 3, the
ouaran fine was raised by the state health
officer. acting upon the reports OF these
marine hospital service experts.
So far from exciting unnecessary alarm,
therefore. the efforts of the marine hospi-
taj service were directed to the contrary.
while the state health officer never for
maIlv admitted the disease to be yellow
fever he took all The precautions predi-
cated thereon, and threw the onus OF de-
cidine The matter upon the marine hospital
service surgeons, taking TO himself the
credit OF not admitting the fever IL II did
NOT prove to be such, and Of having taken
active measures at the outset II II ala
prove 10 be such.
rbe reports given out by the marine hos
