Came from the Farm.
Andrews was born near Romeo a few
miles from Detroit. He was 10 years
old when he left country store in 1890
to locate in Detroit. He got position
in a real estate Office, but a few months
later joined the force of larger con-
Germ, where he became notable for his
nervous activity. He was tireless
worker, .surcharged with energy. He
was not content with his salary, and as
a side business arranged with property
owners to sell their lots. He was so
successful that he made $1,000 the first
year. He had also impressed his EN-
ployer so favorably that he was taken
into partnership the second year, and
he was put in charge of the loan de-
partment. He managed 1t so ably and
conservatively that he made money for
the firm, and not one of his mortgages
was ever foreclosed. He was an indie
fatigable worker, and in two years had
earned a fortune of $4,000. He had a
high sense of his credit, and he never
asked the banks for any loans without
submitting good paper. His business
brought him into contact with a well
TODD class of men, but made no effort

February 18th, 1898, is a day ever
memorable to the American people as
a day of great sorrow and anger. News
most shocking flew over the wires from
one end of the land to the other. In
the harbOr of Havana our proud battle
ship Maine had suddenly been demol-
ished by some submarine explosive
force, and with it's shattered iron form
254 brave marines had sunk instantly
into the deep wet grave.
Thus the Maine will ever occupy a
prominent place in history. Through
this sad and fearful event was not the
immediate cause of the Spanish-Ameri-
can war, it nevertheless was the most
deplorable prelude Of the ensuing con-
fiict and the dire signal of the collapse
of Spain as a world power. With the
Maine there were lost seventeen times
as many lives as in the two great naval
battles of this war, the brilliant vic
tories of Dewey off Manila and of
Schley off Santiago. A nation but hon
ors itself when honoring those who
have sacrificed their lives in her behalf.

Washington. June s. - The tallest
man in Congress is Representative Cy-
rus Sulloway of New Hampshire The
shortest is Representative Samuel w.
Smith of Michigan. Mr.. Sulloway is
fully six feet six inches in hight, with
a frame in proportion. Mr.. Smith has
not more than four feet six inches,
and commensurately built.
Occasionally these two men are seen
together. The other day they stood to-
gether waiting for the east House ell
evator Mr.. Sulloway evidently hSd
something of a confidential nature to
tell Mr.. Smith, and, leaning over to
whisper, he was obliged to double up
like a jackknife. The spectacle at
tracted much attention. Mr.. Sulloway
has come to be known among the
House employees as The Majority
While Mr.. Smith, in contrast, is called

Spencer Blackburn, representative
in Congress from North Carolina, and
a Republican, enjoys the distinction
of being the only man holding a seat
in either branch who smokes cigar
cites. Mr.. Blackburn likes his cigar
cite and may frequently be seen in
his seat at the House with an unlight-
ed bit of paper and weed in his
mouth. Seated near Mr.. Blackburn
is Representative Ernest F. Acheson
of Washington, Pa, who glories in his
great record of never having taken
drink or smoked in his life. Most
members of Congress smoke; those
who do not may be counted on the
fingers of one hand. One of the most
picturesque smokers who ever served
in the House was Judge Cockrell. a
member from Texas, and a brother of
Senator F. M. Cockrell of Missouri.
Mr.. Cockrell always smoked a huge
meerschaum pipe, which, when UNI
used, he carried in his pocket. long
stem and all. He was to be seen at
nearly any hour during a days ses-
sion putting away at the machine in
one of the galleries. His brother, the
senator. also smokes a meerschaum,
but confines the enjoyment of his pipe
to his committee room.

Flies and the Spreading of Disease.
80 much is said nowadays of the
carriage of a certain class of diseases
by mosquitoes that the agency of lies
in the transmission of another class of
diseases is apt to be overlooked. The
malarial germ has to pass through the
body of certain mosquitoes before at
tanning it's highest development of its
full life history. So far as we know,
as yet. mosquitoes are secondary ele-
ments in the development of this lis
ease. germ. The malarial germ, for
instance, is an animal organism. 1t
belongs to the group known as
protozoa, and from analogy it is al
together likely that the as yet undis-
covered germ of yellow fever will also
prove to belong to the same class OF
parasitic organisms.
THE parasite which causes Texas
fever in cattle is also analogous to the
minute spore which causes malaria in
human beings. 1t inhabits the blood

ill. Again. early observations dem
onstrated that flies are important
agents in the transmission of Asiatic
cholera.
Typhoid fever, as will be remem-
bered doubtless, was astonshingly prev
alent in the military camps of this
country during the war with Spain.
At that time the disease received a
thorough investigation at the hands of
a special commission of army surgeons
appointed for the purpose. 1t was
shown that although excellent preven-
tive measures had ben recommended in
the circulars issued by the surgeon
general of the army, these instructions
were not carried out. Flies swarmed
over the infected filth that accumu-
lates around a camp and then proceed
ed to the mess tents and fed upon the
food prepared for the soldiers. Thus,
by the agency of flies, it was discov-
cred germs were spread and carried to
the food of the soldiers.
For some time past l have been
carrying on an investigation for the
purpose of ascertaining what flies
breed in refuse of various sorts, and
conversely, just what flies are found
in dining rooms and kitchens where
food is being prepared and served.
These Investigations 1 have conducted
with the greatest care and in different
parts of the country. In this way a
large amount of material has been
gathered. Briefly summarized we have
found that the number of species of
insects which breed in filth containing
germs in very large, not less in fact
than forty7four species of beetles and
sevently-seven species of flies. Some
of these are important in the disease
breeding function. more than 1900 flies
were caught in kitchens and dining
rooms in different parts of the country
from Massachusetts to California and
from New York to Louisiana. 1t was
proved that of the flies breeding in
