Efforts 30 Discover the Germ Causing
Death to Thousands Successful.

A rich mans grief over the death of
his favogite grandchild has resulted in
a discovery which is expected to have a
telling effect in the effort to decrease
the alarming mortality among children
of tender years during the heated season.
Two years ago little Jack" Mccormick.

Rockefeller, died of summer complaint
Mt Mr.. Rockefellers Tarrytown home.
Torn with grief. Mr.. Rockefeller demand

mortality among children from this dis
ease. In reply. they stated that the all
ment was caused by some germ, but what
the germ was and how to reach it they
did not know Mr.. Rockefeller deter
mined to open the way 10 their finding the
germ. and within a month he had set
aside S2O0.0OO for the establishment of
an institute for medical research. Under
the direction Of DR. William H. WEIGH
the work was taken up in earnest at the
Wilson Sanitarium for Children. near
Baltimore. Md. Here each summer frcm
300 to 500 children are treated.
With the opportunities thus afforded

of youngsters with baskets and ham

lot was boy about . years old,
dressed in full navy uniform. Sus-
pended from his neck was p whistle
that cost perhaps or cents. But the

TO raise the dead An old nln sitting
opposite stood it for quite a while, but
at last. TO stop the noise. he offered the
young marine 10 cents for the whistle,
ana the sale was made and goods de
liyered
The boy looked AT the two nickels for
a while with staring eyes, slipped them
into his pocket and was quiet and ap-
parently in deep thought for perhaps
ninety seconds. Then he reached ID
his pocket and pulled out aIiotfer whis-
tie mate to the first. and started in
where he had left of. with one eye on
the old man. After he had got rcd and
purple and tired from blowing, he said:

Peril from Pinnacle Rocks

An old officer of the coast survey
thinks that the accident to the Brook
lyn. which ran on rock in Buzzard' S
Bay in the recent mimic war off the
New England coast. was caused by a
pinnacle rock. Such rock is hard
to locate, as it is a stone spire and one
may go within six fet of it and never
suspect its presence. A weighted rope
hung between two launches and the
bottom Of some unlucky ship are the
only things which can discover such a
rock. The Pilgrim rock in the East
River in New York harbor was not
discovered until the Fall River boat of
that name ran onto it, Schoolship rock,
off Cottage City. Martha's Vineyard, is
another stone of this kind, and third
lies somewhere near the entrance to
Vineyard Sound. New York harbor
has one or two other pinnacle rocks be-
side Pilgrim rock.

A Wonderful pin

Freedom. Mo. Nov. 3--A splendid
remedy has recently been introduced n
this neighborhood 1t is called Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and it has cured Rheu-

stated already there seems to be no
case of Rheumatism that Dodd's Kid

One of those who has already tested
the virtue of Dodd's Kidney Pills is
Katie Anderson of this place, who
says:
Il can't say enough for Dodd's Kid

much. l suffered very severely with

PORTABLE SCHOOL HOUSES.


Are Used in Crowded Districts. but
Cut Off the Fairgrounds.
Although opinions are divided con-
corning it, there is much talk about
the portable school house in New York
Only few days ago the matter came
up unofhcially in the Board of Educa-
ton, brought about by the success of
an experiment made with them in the
Borough of Brooklyn and by the word
from Boston, where portable school
houses have been placed here, there
and everywhere when there was need
of more room.
The objection that authorities in
Manhattan raise is that playground
space is so limited that there is hardly
room to put portable buildings along
side of schools in the crowded sections
OF the city, where they would be most
valuable, says the New York Times.
On the other hand, portable building
has been squeezed in by school, in a
most polulous section of Greenpoint.
and it is proving very useful.
Three portable schools are already in
operation in Brooklyn, seating togeth-
er $50 children who could not other
wise be accommodated. The theory is
that city SHOULD own or hire a num-
Der of these portable school houses and
move them around to crowded dis
tricts. In practice. however, each port
able school that has been put up in
Brooklyn's limits seem in danger of
becoming a permanent structure.
Each school house has its little porch.
and is heated by the simple expedient
of running steam pipe from the main
school. Each is class room by itself,
except in the portable building in
Greenpoint, which is so large that it
holds two classes. The cost of these
buildings, bought outright. is from $500
to $1,000.

UPHAM DIDN'T RE-ENLIsT.

Ex-Governor Upham, of Wisconsin, who was at
the capitol yesterday, is one OF the few men in
the world who have had the pleasure Of reading
their own obituaries
When the Civil war began, Mr. upham, then a
mere boy, enlisted at Racine, and before long
was facing the enemy at Bull Run. As he did
not answer the roll call of his regiment after the
BATTLE he was mourned as dead. All the churches
OF Racine united in memorial service
in his honor-ior he was the first dead hero OF
that seciion-and the newspapers printed long
and euogistic accounts OF his brave career A
Young lady who was then Mr., Uphams sweet
heart, and who is now his WIFE, gathered these
tributes together and preserved them in Il scrap
book tied with black ribbon.
But the Young soldier was not dead He had
been carried from the field of battle TO a Con-
iederate prison. 1t was year later, when, upon
his release, he returned to Washington and
sought one OF the Wisconsin senators. lie was
astonished when he learned that he was sup
posed TO be dead. 1t took him some time to
convince the senator OF his identity. Then the
two went 10 see President Lincoln
II want 10 re'eallst in my regiment said
Upham.
My boy said Lincoln, "you are officially dead,
and man who has fought, bled and died ior
his country has done enough"
AiterWard, however, young upham was ap.
pointed cadet at West Point, and continued
TO serve his country in very live fashion, lie
does not look as ii he would be the text for an
obituary notice for many years TO come Wash
ington Post.
