DISCUSSION ON
TUBERCULOSIS
Or, Brush Disagrees Somewhat
With Professor Koch,
COWS PRODUCE THE DISEASE
No Reason why Human Race should
Not be Free From Terrible
Consumption.

New York, Aug. l2.--Dr. Edward F..
Brush Of Mount Vernon. y. Y, former
ly professor OF bovine pathology in the
American Veterinary college, is especi-
ALLY interested in the theory advanced
by Prof Koch that the bovine tuber-
cular germ Is not Of the same variety as
the human tu6ercular germ, and there
Is no danger from milk and meat to
men
DR.. Brush said; 81 cannot agree with
DR.. Koch in everything he says. ! am
OF the opinion that tubercular condl-
lions In men and animals are Identical
after they are started My occupation
brings Inc in close contact with dairy
cattle. and have been compelled to
1eyote my attention to the subject Of
tuberculosis affecting dairy stock one
fact that strengthens my belief that
human baccilary tuberculosis is all de-
rived from the bovine species Is that
where this animal does not exist pull
monary consumption is unknown,
The kirghis, on the steppes of Rus
STA, who have no cows, have Indicated
the horse, using its milk meat and
skin, and a case Of pulmonary tubercu-
lOsis has never been known in the tribe.
The Esqulmau has no cows, neither has
he pulmonary psthiss and ] think II
can be- laid down as a fact that where
the dairy COW is unknown pulmonary
consumption does not prevail. Let us
treat this disease especially among
the cows, as leprosy was treated Of old.
and then we shall be saved from the
painful necessity of treating the hui
man race in like manner for am con-

The steamer left Halifax last Satur-
day night and was due here today IL
Is understood she carried large num-
Der of passengers, but at the Plant line
Office here no information could be
gained
As IL was near high tide and as the
steamer foated without great difficulty
II was thought she was not seriously
damaged. II soon appeared, however,
that she was leaking Accordingly the
captain headed for Georges Island, and
beached her.

and bright over stateline There was
I nothing In the air TO indicate the coming
tragedy, for everything was serene. Jim
Glendenning emerged from the Ophh
mine and began 10 mix up with thu
boys. Pretty soon Hedges Joined the
crowd making his advent known In his
customary style. Time began TO drag
and someone in the party proposed IA
shooting contest. The proposition was
accepted and feats Of Workmanship
such as are seldom seen these days, ot-
cupled the attention Of the
crowd For twenty years jim.
Hedges boasted that he was
the best shot in the district, But, in
Glendennng was d man who shot with
flourish and accuracy that was goad-
ing Somebody threw can into the
air and Glendennng shot several holes
in II before II touched the ground The
crowd cheered and Hedges became
jealous. Presently a controversy arose
as TO who was the better shot, Hedges
or Glendenning and the opinion Of the
majority yielded the palm to the latter,
Hedges saw the turn of public opinion
and he ragged with silent hatred and
envy Glendennlng made a few more
shots equally as skilful az the shooting
of the can, and Hedges stung with de-
feat went TO Glendenning and Kissed,
IF you want "A gun play you can have
1t" but he said he didn't have his gun
with him, but would go and get It.
The crowd saw trouble coming and
several men went home, Others locked
up their shops and got out of the way.
'rhose whom the gods destroy they
first make mad" Is an old saying and
IL was peculiarly so in Hedges case.
He should have thought Of the abso-
lutely accurate aim OF his rival and
paused. He did pause long enough TO
conceive a dastardy deed. He dread
ed Glendenning's gun, and he proposed
not to give him a chance to use n. He
made his way back 10 where some Of
the crowd was cpngregating, unseen by
Glendenning, and II is said, when he
saw his opportunity he fired The bull
let entered Glendenning's left arm and
shattered IT,
But his face gave no evidence that he
was wounded. He wheeled around and
saw Hedges with his gun still pointed
at him, There was not muscle ~
Glendenning's body that moved. The
right arm was raised in flash then
two reports rang out and Hedges fell
like a log
An examination OF the body revealed
two bullet holes over the heart. and
they were not one-eighth OF an inch
apart The aim was perfect With one
arm dangling at his side shattered,
Glendenning never lost for a moment
that absolute mastery over his nerve
that sends the bullet he fires straight to
the mark at which he aims
Glendenning Is now in prison at Ce-
dar city, but his friends are making eff
forts 10 have him released They ex-
onerate him from all blame. and the
general remark around Stateline is
that the bad man got what he had been
looking for Sor twenty years,

SHAMROCK n.
Capt. Sycamore Fears Columbia More
than Constitution,

New York, Aug l3,-The new Ameri-
cas- cup challenger Shamrock ii lay
at anchor off Sandy Hook last night
and today was towed up the bay to
Tompkinsville. Staten island. She will
be taken at once TO Erie basin, where
she will be stripped and her racing
mast stepped. Her spars are ready and
there will be no delay In getting her
into racing trim.
The challenger received a lively and
enthusiastic welcome from every craft
In the harbor as she came up the bay
In tow Of the tug Robert Haddon. The
shippers OF the tugs loosed their whis-
ties and the New York waited a salute
with her siren. The Erin acknowledged
the salute with three deep blasts.
one glance was sufficient TO con-
vince the experts that Watson had
built a much handsomer boat than the
old Shamrock. She looks the fastest
boat ever turned out in British waters.
one Of her beauties Is Watson's Pc
culiar tilt OF the counter. There Is no
natness or tumble home along the top
sides and her great oyerhang gives her
the appearance Of speed. 81 was
painted green like the Irish knights
first challenger.
Hardly had her anchor HIT the bot
tom OF a Tompklnsville bar before
throngs appeared on the Hill and the
pler heads 10 study her lines with their
glasses.
Cant. Hamilton. navigating officer Of
the Shamrock. stated 10 an Associated
Press representative that the yacht had
been towed about two.thirds the way
from the Azores.
Prevailing winds from the south
southeast gave them a fair wind all the
way. They got into the tall-end Of an
easterly gale August I and carried
away two iop-sail sheets. That was
the only mishap OF the voyage.
The total length OF the voyage was
,sq miles and the actual running time
ID DAYS hours and g. minutes
Capt. Sycamore. who Is 10 have abso-
lutte charge OF the Shamrock II In the
races. gave Il as his opinion that the
