1t Is fitting at this time to call at

founder of the Wesleyan movement
and OF the largest church in the
United States
The Rev. John Wesley was born in
Epworth. Lincolnshire, England. The
chief place IN this shire is the city of
Lincoln. which was an ancient town
even In the days of the Roman occupa-
ton. Lincoln Is about one hundred
and fifty miles northeast of London,
anu Epworth is about thirty-four miles
northwest from Lincoln. When IVES
ley was born Epworth was a market
town of two thousand inhabitants and
after the lapse of two hundred years,
1t remains a quiet country town with
about the same population.
John Wesley's father was the Rev
Samuel Wesley, a clergyman Of the
Church of England. The Wesley fam
lily for many generations was Of con-
siderable Importance The name,
sometimes spelled Wesley and also
Wellesley. was an exceedingly honor
able one and had been borne by men
who were conspicuous in various
spheres. Arthur Wellesley. the Duke
or Wellington. belonged to the Irish
branch of the family. Our John Wes-
ley's grandfather was also John WeS-
ley, and his great-grandfather was
Bartholomew Wesley His father,
grandfather, and great-grandfather
were clergymen. but his grandfather

(consinued from Page 81

(COn1nueQ from rage o.
dissented from Jenner's position. DR..
Creighton wittfly remarks that the re-
Iation preventively of cowpox to small
box is about as close as is that of a
horse chestnut to a chestnut horse. .
This learned and painstaking man says
that, today, no scientific man having a
reputation to lose will assert that, the
two diseases are one and the same and
yet Jenner, in DR.. Hadwen's words
boldly planted the Latin term Varioloe
vaccinae upon the title page of his in
quiry,' but carefully omitted supplying
any proof of it's correctness or even
referring to it upon the pages of the
article ITSELF Surely, sir, it was a
sorry piece of business even if Jenner
made a hit, which he certainly did.
Smallpox of the cow Immediately
took. 1t was a hit; and a majority, a
majority only, mind you, Mr.. Editor,
of the medical fraternity of that day
thought Jenner had scored bulls eye
when fussing round the diseased teats
of the Gloucestershire dairymaids' cows,
and it appears. unhappily, many con-
tinue to think so even till this day.
You speak. sir, of the worlds govern
ing statesmen sharing in the opinion of
the medical fraternity. DIR. Tebb, in a
Century of Vaccination, and What 1t
Teaches" referring to the excellent
speeches of Mr.. Balfour and Lord Sails
bury. to whom the passing of the pres
ent vaccination law in Great Britain
was largely due, says: There is no
reason to suppose that either Mr.. Bal
four or Lord Salisbury has any special
knowledge of the subject, or has aban-
doned the current belief concerning it;
but as statesmen and thinkers they
could mot fail to recognize the limits
beyond which matters of opinion could
not be enforced
You further say. Mr.. Editor, I'm his
objections to the use of lymph Judge
Hart will not find much support from
the science of today, which is seeking
its remedies for the gravest diseases in
anti-toxins which have eeen introduced
and then extracted from the bodies of
animals and you quote the Argonaut's
views touching a new anti-toxin treat
ment for the prevention and cure of
typhoid, and the value of smallpox
vaccine. You will well understand, Mr..
Editor, after what has been written
above that for myself must absolutely
and emphatically decline to accept as
authority the Argonaut's views when
pitted against the knowledge and at
tainments of the learned and accom-
plished physicians quoted herein OF
DR.. Creighton's attachments have al
ready spoken. Let me tell of Sir Ben
jamin Ward Richardson, NJ. D.. F. r.
s, to whom the Ashley Cooper prize
was awarded for his Investigations on
the coagulation of the blood, who. even

THE OXFORD CREW.

in his early medical career, was pre-
sented with scientific apparatus and
purse of thousand guineas in recogni-
ton for his services to medical science.
Support" Mr.. Editor, from the sci
ence of the day" What better support
can any one want than the support
yielded in the teachings of the eminent
men whose words have quoted? But,
sir, as an on-looking layman I have
nothing of my own to offer the world
that requires support, and / simply pre-
sent my thoughts as statements show
questions I am grateful and happy to
find myself, and hence endeavor to lead
others where 1 find it enlightening and
profitable to go.
Touching the science of the day, there
is science and science. In Vol. VIII of
the Asclepiad. a book of original. re-
search and observation IN the science,
art and literature of medicine, prevent
ative and curative. at page SO is to be
read: Science of the very highest may
be of the lowest and most mischievous
kind, as applied to arts affecting the
welfare of men, and to medical art,
above ALL" Further on the learned au-
thor speaks of 1.-The vulgar and illogical
process of fmplanting one disease on
another" and of the paramount neces-
sity of so placing the body that it will
swing round from erring to natural
movements of life.
Your correspondent addressed you on
the subject of vaccinating for small
pox. You, sir, introduced the subject
of anti-toxins, which appear to have
nothing in common with the disease
named and its asserted preventative.
But as you introduce the subject of
bacteriology, let me quote words of a
master of science, George Newman,
NJ. D. (Edin.), d. p. H. (Camb), dem
onstrator of bacteriology in Kings Col
lege, London, and author of a recent
work on Bacteria" In the introduce
ton he says bacteriology lis a science
fuller of hope than proved and tested
knowledge These words have bear
ing on the Argonaut's preventive and
cure for diptheria,'' and perhaps, sir,
layman may be pardoned for suggest
ing the possibility that it, too, like
Koch's tuberculosis and the plague
serums, may, in course of time, be
declared dangerous and not beneficial
1t is fitting that the land of Jenner's
birth should ind among its sons men
with the knowledge, learning. and cour-
age, able TO cope with the beliefs of the
majority OF their professional brethren,
and whose teaching is already making
itself felt.
With words of one have not yet al
luded to, Alex. NJ. Ross, NJ. D., F. r. S.,
let me close: Il oppose" he says, be
cause forty years of practice have con-
WINGED me that vaccination does not
afford the least protection or mitigation
from smallpox, and because believe
that its pretext is bad in logic, wicked
in morals, and futile in practice. Yours
obediently, CHARLES F. HART.

WORK FOR
INCURABLES
Patients Treated at
the Home at
Kainuki.
Many Men of Many
NationaIitieS Are
Received.
Treasurer S. E. Damon Has Sub
mitted a Report OF
the Work.

1 >. Z. Damon, treasurer OA the NUM-
lulu Home for IncurabIes at Kaimuki,
shows that the condition Of that institu-
ton, and the work done there are of
a character that should commend its
value to every man and woman who
has a heart for the sufferings OF the un-
fortunate. The Home for Incurables is
one of those institutions. semi-public
in character. for the maintenance of
which the good people OF Honolulu have
long been noted. This reputation of
Honolulu has Travelled much farther
abroad than most residents OF the city
are aware. perhaps. There is. in fact
no city Of its size in the, United States
that does more and mCre intelligent
charitable work than Honolulu. The
fact is due to latitude. perhaps in part.
for people in warm climates are always
warm hearted,-but 1t is due also to a
certain habit Of charity that is an in
was much farther from everywhere
than it is now, and when the presence
of man In the community in any
kind OF distress became town talk and
the town concern at once. The Homo
lulu people of the olden times did more
than talk. They acted. in a helpful
way, and their sons and daughters have
inherited the trait.
The Home for Incurables is located
on the high lands at Kaimuki. where
the air is fresh and pure and where
the unfortunates may have all the adj
vantage that can be secured from such
situation. There are eight buildings
attached to the establishment, and
these have been erected with a view
singly to the use to which each is to
be put. An Improvement now in course
OF being carried out is a plan to iso-
late consumptives in a ward to be fit
ted up for their exclusive use in the
top floor of the Administration build
ing. An effort has been made hereto
fore to isolate people suffering from
tuberculosis. but it has not met with
the degree Of success desired for the
reason that there was no place where
they could be kept entirely seprate
from the balance of the patients. The
new ward will remedy this, and make
complete isolation possible. And that
viii act for the good of all the patients
in the Home
The report Of Mr.. Damon shows that
for the period from September 1st to
December S1st there were admitted to
the Home total Of thirty-four pa
tients. These comprised Hawaiians.
Europeans. japanese, Chinese, South
Sea Islanders, Porto Ricans and
negroes, and the cost of their keep
per day per patient was about S1.45.
In the same period there were six
deaths in the hospital, and the average
number of patients for that time was
eighteen. The Home has an endowment
fund Of s65. 900, and the running ex-
penses for the time covered in the re-
port amounted TO $2sOs4 As. The report
itself, however, contains all the figures
in the best possible manner to their
understanding by those who are inter-
ested in the work Of the Home. 1t fol-
