To BE Utilized as an Asylum FOR IN
ebriates.
Down In the blue grass region of
Kentucky. on the same farm where
Abraham Lincoln was born and spent
his boyhood days, says the Chicago
Tribune the ST. Luke's Society of Chi
cago is to establish home for the
inebriates of the south. A large hotel,
small cottages and commodious dwell
ings will be erected by the society.
and. though the land is in the south.
the negro will be made as welcome as
the white.
The Lincoln farm is in the town of
Hodgenville. fifty miles south of Louis
vile, and consists of 10 acres of pas
ture land On ii is a spring of mineral
water the fame of which is great be-
low the Mason and Dixon line. 1t was
owned by some prominent Methodists
of the south. among them the Rev. j.
w Bingham. Some time ago its own
ers decided to donate its use to char
ity, and they chose the st. Luke's So
ciety as the organization best suited
to carry out their plans
The farm will be turned into SAM
tarium. planned much after that now
run by the society in Chicago. On it
will be taken only those who are adj
dicted to drugs. liquors or tobacco.
The treatment is to be similar to that
given at the Chicago hospital.
While the officers of the society are
busy trying to get the Lincoln farm in
shape they are also at work establish
ing a branch within the Cook county
Jail. There prisoners known to be vic

AS TO POISONED BULLETS.
Experiments Show Infection May BE

In discussing the question whether

The bacillus prodiciosus. be said
to reporter of the New York Saa
was chosen for the experiment be-
cause of its singular chromo.enie paw-
er. This practically harmless gem
when inoculated upon a piece of boiled
potato and allowed TO stand in a mod
crate temperature for a Gay had shown
its presence by a bright red spot
For the purpose of the bullet test a
fat tin can was filled with cooked
mashed potatoes and placed behind a
piece of army blanket which had been
saturated with a pure culture of the
germ. Then marksman fired through
the blanket into the can, using both
test the tin can. the rifle and the am
munition were thoroughly Gle anssd and
disinfected.
THE idea was that a bullet passing
through the blanket would be coated
with a culture of the germ. and even
though the amount retained on the bull
let's surface was enthusiastically small
it would be sufficient to start a colony
in the potato.
After the shooting the can of po-
tatoes was placed in an incubator and
left long enough for the germ to de
velop. The results shown were that
all of the low velocity bullets-such as
were fired at President Mckinley-had
become infected in their passage
through the blanket and their track in
the potato was finely deiineated by
red growth.
THE tracks left by the high velocity
bullets fired from the krag-Jorgensen
the Martini-Henry and the Mause'
rifles were clean and uncolored- Ihi:
showed conclusively that with the higi
velocity arms the flight of the bullet
more than 1900 feet second, was s.
rapid that enough heat was generated
by the air friction oa the surface o
the bullet to burn off any bacteria tina
lodged on it. This also explains Incl
dentally how so many of our soldier
in the Spanish war recovered IRON
wounds made by the bullets from tn

MIR. Van der HOocht Pays Tribute
to the Dead President.

A touching tr:bute to Mckinley has
been paid by Mr.. Van der Hoocht the
unofficial representative of the Boer
interests IN Washington, says the Chi
cago News. Mr.. Van der Hoocht says:
Il know that President Mckinley
was a friend of the struggling repub-
lies in South Africa. During his life
time ii was impossible to state many
of his kindly offices in their behalf. but
as tribute to a gentle and benefcent
man feel free to relate few personal
"reminiscences.
when President Kruger dispatched
his circular telegram to the powers of
the world. President Mckinley was
the first TO take action and 10 suggest
his diplomatic good offices to Great
Britain. The world knows the text of
the formal note delivered. but very few
know that President Mckinley was in
constant and personal correspondence
with ambassador Choate during the
progress of negotiations.
when Great Britain refused the in
dividual Intervention of the United
States. President Mckinley took an ex-
traordinary step and directed Embas-
sador Choate to inquire of Lord Sails
bury If a joint request from the pow
ers would be acceptable to Great Brit
ain. know that in this connection he
also consulted continental ambassadors
at Washington. The reply to this ex-
traordinary suggestion was in the neg
alive. President Mckinley could do
no more.
While pressure was being exercised
upou the president to induce him to in
augurate q vigorous policy | had an In
terview with him, and in most
gracious manner he explained his
course and went so far as to show me
his personal correspondence and teie-
grams. That he was sincere and ear
nest was certain"
