that the bell should be rung, and did his
part towards it. His class of boys was
invited to meet at the vestry to re-

was rung for about an hour, and all

Bacteriology and Medicine.
From the Lancet.


Too much must not be expected from bac-
teriology, which Is only an aid to diagnosis,
though an invaluable aid. There are etill a
few practitioners, rapidly diminishing In
numbers, who minimize the information to
be obtained from exact scientific procedure,
regarding 1t as likely to be misleading or
fancfful. They are wrong In their attitude,
which Is opposed to all progress, but, on
the other hand, many enthusiastic workers
are inclined to place too high q value on
the knowledge to be obtained by the usa Of
meteorological methods. These ardent bac-
teriologists are prone to forget that there
are essential differences between a man
and test tube: they do not allow euf1-
GENTLY for the gaps in our knowledge OF
vital processes. Too great stress can hard
ly be laid upon the fact that in order to Sc.
cure the greatest amount of value from
bacteriology as an assistant to clinical
medicine the clinician and the bacteriolo-
gist must work together. BY this plan only
can the errors in diagnosis be lessened.

shows that fact may be stranger than

scattering the cups and dishes and

VENEzUELA'S HISTORY

For small country, as compared to tho

meyers Of New Orleans. who has spent a
number of years in that country, to re-.
porter for The Evening Star this afternoon.
Richard Harding Davis has romanced
about 1T, Ira Nelson Morris has written
some very pretty skits in prose about its
azure skies, beautiful sunsets, grand noun
ta1ns, water courses, fertile valleys and
beautiful women; and our own William En-
roy Curtis, having dfved deeper than all
the others named into facts, has told us
In the interesting style peculiarly his own,
how the country came to be discovered, in
the opening chapter of his very readable
book Venezuela, a Land Where It's Al.
ways Summer published in 1896 In add
ton, Mr.. Curtis tells us some very valuable
things about the people of the country past
and present, and dwells at length upon
trade conditions which the people Of this
country might, II they would. take adyan-
tage.
Discovery Of Venezuela.
According to current history. the repub-
lilo, now known as the republic OF the
United States OF Venezuela, was discovered
as early as 1440 by the Castilian knight
Alonzo de Ojeda, who had been associated
with Columbus on his second voyage, and
who commanded q fleet OF four vessels,
chartered and equipped by some wealthy
merchants Of Seville.
For 240 years Venezuela remained loyal
to the Spanish crown, during which period
Spain displayed the same rapacity, injustice
and cruelty which has characterized her
rule In all the colonies she has possessed,
a policy whose fruits were always rebel
lion, until today nothing but decadent
kingdom remains of once mighty empire,
whose ships covered the known waters Of
the globe and whose commerce dominated
all that was then known OF the civilized
world.
July 8, 1911, the leading men Of Caracas
proclaimed republic and adopted a consti-
tuition very similar to that Of our own coun-
try. Ten years of war followed, which end
ed in the expulsion Of the Spanish army
from the province. In 1847 a treaty Of
peace was signed and Spain formally 40
knowledged the Independence OF the coun-
try.
