Modern Sanitary Methods.
Corpus Christi Caller:

/ the weekly report Of cases Of yellow
fever and deaths fr3 it, registered
at the port Of Tampico from May
80 to Aug. 24th, 1903. The report
gives the total number of cases as
/ 47S and the deaths 301. This is a
very bad type OF Yellow Jack and
! is the same as that at Linares near
Monterey. Such being the case it is
high time it is being squelcheG. No
! doubt President Diaz will get
around to it after awhile, as it is
paralyzing business in that part of
Mexico where it is, and he is hearth
~ in favor OF the introduction of
modern sanitary methods, which
have SO improved the health Of the
people of the City of Mexico. On
this subject OF modern sanitary
methods, the Fort Worth Register
contains the following timely ed
itorial:
The epidemics and generally I'M
healthy conditions which have ours
ed cities of the warmer climates are
being overcome by modern santa
ton, intelligentIy applied; and the
application has been made by Amer
leans, in nearly every instance.
Mexico, Havana and Panama are
notable examples of the effect of the
cleaning process inaugurated by
Americans. Where dirt and filth
reigned and bred disease and death
the air is now pure and the people
are healthy.
Buenos Ayres is another city re-
deemed from disease by intelligent
sanitation. Narrow streets, dark
and gloomy buildings and con
gested population made it the home
of pestlience and shortned the lives
of the people Opening windows in
thick walls, introducing sunlight in
dark rooms, cleaning the streets
and sewering the filth made such a
change that the old city is now
clean, pure and healthy.
Havana is now almost as healthy
and clean as the large cities in this
country. 1t has feltth magic touch
of American enterprise and the dis
ease killing influence of American
science Manila, another Spanish
pest-breeding metropolis, has ac-
cepted the gospel of cleanliness, and
is bright and sweet. and almost
freed from the pestilences which
have made its graveyards more
populous than its streets Santiago, |
where .peStilence invaded all homes |
and DESTROYED hundreds annually, |
is now clean and comparatively |
healthy.
The American people hold to the
teaching that cleanliness is next to
godliness. They detest a dirty city. |
They clean up every city that comes
under their influence. The Ameri-
can business men in Mexico have
been foremost in the work of re-
deeming the Mexican capital 1t /
was at their suggestion and with |
their help that the work was inau-
gurated. And the work through
which the cities referred to have
been made healthy and clean was
superintended by Americans. In
Manila, however, and Santiago it
was all done by Americans.
Liberty, light, freedom and clean |
Illness are paramount with the peo-
pie Of the United States. They are
born enemies to oppression. dark
ness, restriction and dirt Under the |
influence of Il clean religion, and !
inheriting a pure patriotism and |
love Of liberty from the fathers who

A PRAYER BY the Pope.

A letter has been addressed by the
holy father to Cardinals Vannutelli
Rampolla, Ferrata and Nivos Y Tuto.
confirming their appointment by Pope
Leo as a commission to commemorate
the fiftieth anniversary of the dogma
of the Immaculate Conception.
At the same time his holiness has
composed this prayer, to which an in
diligence of 300 days once a day is at
tached:
Most Holy Virgin! Thou didst find
favor with the Savior and didst be-
come His Motheri Immaculate in body
and soul, and faith and love! In this
solemn jubilee of the proclamation of
the dogma which announced thee to the
world as conceived without sin, oh!
look with kindness on us, thy unhappy
children, who implore thy powerful
patronage. The wicked serpent on
whom the first curse was pronounced
continues, alas to wait for and wage
war against the afflicted children of
Eve. oh! thou, our blessed Mother, our
queen and advocate. who, in the first
instant of thy conception didst crush
the enemy's head, accept, we beseech
thee, our prayers and present them be-
fore the throne of God, that. never fall
ing into snares which are laid for us,
VIC may oil 81 achieve .OuT SdINdllOn,
that, Notwithstanding the many perils,
the church of God and Christian So
ciety may once more join in a hymn of
liberation, of victory and of peace.
Amen"
To all who shall recite the present
prayer once day we impart an in
diligence of 300 days.
Given at the vatican this Sth day of
September, 1903 Plus X.
