CLAIMS TO CURE CONSUMPTION
Russian Specialist Achieves Remark
able Results,

able Results.
MOSCOW, Nov 2O.-Remarkable cures
of consumption have recently been eff
fected in Russia by Kisel Zagorarski.
formerly a mining engineer and now
specially licensed by the Russian medi-
cal department to practice medicine in
cases of tuberculosis.
Hearing a rumor that John d. Rookie
feller of the United States had offered
an immense prize for the discovery of
a consumption cure, he consulted Uni
ted States Consul Smith. who, with his
brother, w. Z. Smith, began SYSTEM
attic observation of the cases of several
patients, especially that of an English
woman, who had been given up by the
doctors She submitted to Zagoran-
skis treatment and at the end of a
week the proportion of tuberculosis
bacilli In the saliva had been reduced
10 per cent, and at the end of six weeks g
she had gained twenty-five pounds. and
there was no trace of bacilli observable.
The cure appears to be permanent
Zagoranskis treatment consists
merely In the drinking of his specific
in large qua titles, together with life
in the open air and the observance OF
careful dietary.
Zagoransld says that so far as he is
able to observe the treatment does not
renew wasted lung tissue, but arrests
the disease. At whatever stage of the
disease the treatment is begun 1t kills
the tuberculosis germ, leaving the sys-
tenn clean. SO that 1t may be built up
by careful diet.

woman and her father. while believing
that Matee will eventually arrive here
with good explanation for his delay,

woman who expected yesterday to be-
come bride. Is one of the most promi-

The plan was for Matee to come to
come from ST. Louis to Centerville on
Wednesday night and for the wedding
to occur yesterday at noon. The non
arrival of the pros pectlve groom that
night caused little or Mo surprise. but
when he failed to put in an appearance
yesterday and no word was received
from him IN explanation gossips began
to wonder and soon began to talk.
DIR. Brown feels sure that Mr.. Matee
is not. as some would believe. an ad-
venturer. but that he has been un-
avoidably detained and will arrive in
Centerville. possibly tonight. The
many friends of the family. while nos
all so hopeful as is the doctor, Will be

New York. Nov. 20.-The horse show
has now progressed sufficiently to en-
able some idea to be obtained Of Its
social atmosphere. From this may be
ceduced the probable character OF the
winter season which the show opens. 1t
would seem that the winter is to be
what may best be called Vanderbilt
and western one, or. in other words,
one in which the members OF the Van
derbin connection and certain new
western families will be to the fore In
entertaining.
The Thaws OF Pittsburg, tn.
Spreckles OF San Francisco, the Leeds
of Chicago and other westerners have
been taken up. and promise to soon be
prominent in the social life OF the me-
t-opolis. The Vanderbilt clan, and es-
necially the Alfred and Reginald Van
derbilts, and the Whitneys are forming
almost a little set OF their own, and
are entertaining each other and each
others friends Informally all the time.
This and kindred subjects formed the
chief topics of discussion at the gar
den yesterday, and proved again that
the annual horse show Is. as 1t were.
social clearing house. a place where
the winter plans are formulated ana
the outlook for gayety predicted.
