OVER 80 PER CENT OF DEATHS
ARE FROM CONSUMPTION
This Condition of Affairs Shown to
Exist in Germany.

BERLIN. Feb. 16. - Chancellor Won
Buelow sent to the reichstag today a
memorandum on tuberculosis treat
ment, in which he recited facts gath
cred by the imperial health office. Out
of d thousand deaths in Germany of
persons between the ages of fifteen
and sixty 316 die of tuberculosis alone.
Persons under fifteen and over sixty
are seldom affected. The mortality of
the whole population averaged 242 per
100000 yearly. The conditions are
shown to be better than in France,
Austria and Russia, but worse than in
Switzerland, Belgium, Denmark, Nor
way and England
The chancellor said the health office
found that consumption can be best
treated in special hospitals, in which
Germany now has accommodation for
10000 patients. The statistics for
1896 to 1901 showed that, on the aver
age, out of 100 cases treated 87.7 were
dismissed as cured or improved, 8.S as
no better, 81 as worse and that GA

Experience of Vermont.

From the Denver News.
Vermonts new local option law forbids treating.
The enactment of this statute by Republican legsla-
ture confines prohibition to Maine New Hampshire
Kansas and North Dakota In the Vermont contest the
humorous feature of the situation is that the liquor men
happy, notwithstanding what might naturally be
supposed be their triumph They conceive that under
prohibition they could carry liquor business at
much less expense than under the newly enacted LIQUOR
system. This indicates that good deal of liquor has
been sold in Vermont, under supposed prohbon with
out the expense of maintaining finely fitted saloons.
