LIVERPOOL. Jan. 25.-Presiding at a
complimentary banquet given on Satur-
day to Professor Donald Ross, the re-
cipient of the Nobel prize for medical re-
search. Sir Alfred Jones announced that
the United States had applied TO Pro
fessor Ross for advice and that he was
going to America shortly.
wASHINTON, Jan. 25.-From informa-
ton obtainaoIe tonight no recent apph-
cation has been made by officials Of the
United States for advice from DR.. Don
aid Ross, who. however. is we'll known
here as the physician who discovered the
feet that malarial fever is transmitted by
mosquitoes. About a year ago some in
formal talks were had by surgeons at
tached to the public health and marine
hospital service who called on DR.. Ross
at his home in England with a view to
the doctor becoming identified with the
yellow fever Institute, a bureau of the
service devoted to the study Of yellow
fever in all it's branches. This was about
the time that a commission was going to
Vera Cruz to study the yellow fever stu
alton, and DR.. Ross in a letter to these
officials here having expressed a disincl-
nation to go to any South American couu-
try the consideration of his name in con-
nection with the whole subject was
dropped. No formal proposition ever was
made to him. If fresh proposition has
been made to Dr. Ross it is believed that
it proceeded from the Carnegie Institu-
tion, but no information was obtainabIe
tonight from the latter source.
Q .

soon and satisfactorily.

Opposition in Senate
Plans for Week Of
Obstruction.
Extraneous Literature Will
Be Read to Fill in
the Time.
Enemies of Quay's Omnibus Measure
Decline to Accept the Re-
cent Test Vote as
Decisive.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25-The feature
Of the week in the Senate will be the con-
tinuation of the contest over the state
hood bill. The lines are now more close
ly drawn than they ever before have been
on this bill. They are. indeed, so taut
that all onlOokers realize that they are
about to break; but few unprejudiced per-
sons would undertake to say positively
on which side the disaster must befall.
The advocates of statehood were much
encouraged by the vote of last week, and,
oontending that it has been demonstrated
that there is majority of the Senate
favorable to the bill, they declare that it
is preposterous TO ask them to yield;
while the opposition urges that the vote
was not test at ALL and no real indica-
ton of the attitude of the Senate. The
opponents of statehood say that the bill
is standing in the way of other legisla-
ton and contend that il must get out
of the road and remain out when the ap-
preparation bills begin TO press to the
front, as they soon will do. 1t is prob
able, however, that except at exceptional
times the bill will hold its place in the
front rank during the week

The dance given last Wednesday
night by the st. Agnes Guild of the
Episcopal church was most charming
entertainment. There were forty couples
who came out to watch the last few
hours of the old year pass away, and
after an evening of jollity, just as the
town clock began to strike for the last
time in 1902, and the various church
bells were ringing out the old and ring
ing in the new, the "Home, Sweet

body forming circle around the hall,
joined in the familiar strains of "Auld

and a remedy that has had the largest
sale of any medicine in the world since

without losing its great popularity all
these years,you will be thankful we call
ed your attention to Boschee's German

remedies made by druggists and others
that are cheap and good for light colds
perhaps, but for severe Coughs, Bron-
chitis, Croup-and especially for Con-
sumption, where there is difficult expect

Smallpox and Scarlet Fever Cure.

The following formula furnished by
an army surgeon is going the rounds Of
the newspapers. Its exponent says of
it that he has known it to be used in
hundreds OF cases and that it will pre-
vent or cure smallpox even when the
pittings are filling; and that it is as un-
failing as fate and conquers in every in
stance; that it will also cure scarlet
fever. THE HERALD knows nothing of
the remedy, but puts it before its read
ers for what it is worth. The formula is
as follows:
Sulphate of zinc, one grain; foxglove
(digitalis), one grain half a teaspoonful
of sugar; mix with two tablespoonful
of water. When thoroughly mixed add
four ounces of water. Take teaspoon
full every hour. Either disease will dis.
appear in twelve hours. For child
smaller doses according to its age.

Robert Downing, the great tragedian's
Yakima date was an unfortunate one,
owing to the fact that the Woman's
club reception was held on the same
evening. As a consequence, large
portion of the theatre-going public were
not in evidence at the opera house and
Downing played to small audience.
While Downing is great actor and
his personation of Nero the Gladiator is
a magnificent piece of work, his sup
port, aside from his leading lady, Miss
Van Braham, who was superb as Faus-
tina the Empress, was mediocre.

100000. In the creameries of the
state the commissioner reports an in
vestment of $500, 900, and in the cheese
factories, $4,000. The only thing in
which the commissioner report seems
to be lacking, is an estimate on the
amount of butter made on farms and by
diaries. This item would probably be
fully as large in quantity as the cream
cries output.
The creameries' product shows an in
crease of 100000 pounds and the cheese
factories output gain of 100000
pounds for the two years. Four addi-
tional cheese factories, making a total
of IL, are now in operation. The COM
missioner does not regard as satisfactory
the large gains made during the bien-
NAL period. In touching upon this
point and the large amount of butter
brought in from outside the state, the
commissioner says:
"The large amount of butter and
cheese shipped from other states indi-
Gates that the production of butter in
this state is not gaining on the increased
consumption and should encourage ev-
cry dairyman to increase his herd. 1t
should also encourage new settlers to GO

A Day of Young Men.

This is day and age in which the
young man is a most prominent figure.
Never before has the young man played
so important part in the worlds af-
fairs as he does today; never before has
his opportunities for greatness, for be-
coming something, been so bright as
they are now. People are coming to a
realization of the fact that it requires
the "voung and strenuous man" for
work and duty. In our public affairs
especially is this becoming true. The
New York delegation to Congress is an
illustration of the extent to which the
people are in these days departing from
the adage cold men for council" With
the youngest President in the White
House the country has ever had, the
next house of representatives will show
the youngest body of men ever selected
to legislate on the affairs of the nation
1t has been said that the senate, how
ever, would not be affected by a craze
for young men, but the older members
point to Beveridge, Bailey, Culberson ct
al as an evidence that the young men
are crowding the ''greybears" out even
there.-Grants Pass Courier.
