sUNsrRoKE AND HEATsTRoKE
A Distinct Difference Between the
Two-Former Can Only Occur
In the Tropics

According to a French medical jour-
nal il has been ascertained by DR..
Moussoir that there is distinct diff
ference between prostrations from
heat and pure sunstroke. True sun
stroke can occur only in the tropics,
since there alone are the rays Of the
sun powerful enough to produce the
action on the Uranium that constitutes
sunstroke. Heatstroke, on the other
hand, is produced by the action on
the whole surface of The body, during
sufficiently prolonged period of a
temperature exceeding 104 degrees
Fahrenheit. 1t may result from con-
tinued overheating in a. room, as in
the case of stokers on board ship, who
work in high temperature and with
meager air supply. The heat, If damp,
prevents the body from perspiring
freely, and if too dry parches the skin
and thus stops the perspiration which
is necessary to health. Negroes are far
less susceptible to heat than whites
because the black color of their skin
operates as shade or screen. DR..
Moussoir calls attention to the fact
that the temperature inside persons
clothing is often much higher than the
temperature in the open sun, the cloth
ing seeming to confne the heat and
to hinder the evaporation. One of the
predisposing causes of heat apoplexy
is lying down, the heat rays, both di-
rect and reflected from the ground,
having thus much larger surface to
act on.

AMERICAS HAPPY HOMES.
Why the Late Chief Justice Chase
Freqnented Out-of-the-Way
Streets In Washington.

why do you walk in these old out
of-the-way streets?' asked a friend of
the late Chief Justice Chase who was
frequently the companion Of the lat
ter in his daily walks to the capitol
because like to see the way peo-
pie live" was the answer. 1T al
ways gives me the greatest pleasure
to see how much simple comfort and
happiness are to be found in every
direction. Look at this house, for in
stance" he continued, pointing to
tiny frame building within a small in
closure. Yesterday the woman who
lives there, healthy, fresh looking
creature, was planting flower seeds,
and a little child was helping her
both were as busy and happy as pos
sible. To know that there are thou
sands of such pretty, comfortable and
happy homes all over the country is
a pleasant thought"
1T is often the simplest speeches
that remain the longest in our men,
ories," continued the narrator, "and
many a time have recalled this little
incident when I happened to notice
the homely comfort of some humble
house, and / feel proud 20 think there
is more of that sort of prosperity in
America than in any other country in
the world"

SOWENS pORRIDGE.

With regard to the statement by the
London Daily News Mafel1ing corre-
spondent in a recent issue, that sowens
Cor sowens- porridge, as he calls it9 had
become the staple dish of the besieged
town, it may be Of interest, says cor
respondent, to know how this old
Scotch dish is made. After the oat-
meal is extracted from the oat all the
remaining part, husks, bran and fine
oat flour, is soaked in water for sew
eral days, during which time it sours
and lightly ferments. The whole is
then sifted and strained, all the water
poured off, and fine white sediment

it is boiled with water or milk, and
eaten with milk or sirup. In Mafeking,
where there are no meal mills, | sup
pose the whole oat would be soaked.
1t is q. highly nutritious dish, of a
slightly sourish taste, and is often rec
commended by doctors as light article
of diet in cases of indigestion, etc. In
Scotland the night par excellence for
sowens is Hogmanay, the last night of
the old year, where it is the staple sup
per dish in most farm kitchens in the
north. There used also to exist senti-

pies windows with the liquid on that

Some newspapers in the Indian
Territory are showing lamenta-
BILE lack of information with refer
ence to the collection of royalty
due the nation on hay, merchan-
disc, etc. The royalty on hay
shipped from the Cherokee nation
is on all prairie hay, and that cut
from allotments is not excluded.
In fact there have been no allot-
ments taken in the Cherokee ma
ton and consequently all Chero-
kee land is public domain in a
sense. The law applies with equal
force to citizen and non-citizen
without distinction. We have yet
to be convinced that it is a crime
for the government to collect the
revenues due the Cherokee nation.
The sixteenth section of the Cur
tis bill provides the manner in
which it shall be collected, and as
long as that law stands it should
certainly be enforced. The ques-
tion of paying the collectors out Of
tribal funds is another and a differ
ent matter. We maintain that
such action is without authority
Of law.

Sullivan Defeats Broad.

NEW YORK, March 16.-Daye Sui
livan, of Boston, defeated Kid Broad,
of Cleveland, in a twenty-tiveround
bout at 124 pounds at the Broadway
Athletic Club tonight. Four months
ago these two feather-weights met at
the same club house and on that oc-
casion Broad got the decision. Both
men were in prime condition tonight,
Broad being the favorite at 100 to 10
in the betting.
Up to the fifteenth round matters
were evenly divided.
Sullivan had a provoking left jab
always in evidence. Broad's left and
right frequently visited Sullivan's
head and body. but at close quarters
Dave threw his right into the ribs
and back of the left kidney and Broad
became tired.
In the sixteenth round Broad show
ed the first signs of distress and he
adopted hugging tactics which were
tolerated by Referee Charley White.
In the eighteenth and nineteenth
rounds Sullivan transgressed the rules
and evened matters up. BY this time
Broad was weak and although ne
landed several clever blows on body,
neck and head, they seemed to have
no effect as it was too evident that
Broad had lost bis steam. He fire.
quently landed on the Irishman. but
the latter came back with three-fold
force and at the end of the twentieth
round there was nothing in it but
Sullivan. Broad made desperate at
tempts to defend himself, but Sulli-
vans left and right body blows were
too much for him and they so signally
weakened him that the Clevelander's
chances were hopeless at the end of
the round.
In the twentJ-ffth round and last
