KILLED BY "SLEEP DISEASE. ,,
Uganda Being Depopulated by the
Sickness and Fears Are Felt
for Egypt.


issued a report on the sleeping sick
ness which is now devastating Uganda.
Though it was discovered only few
years ago, it is computed that the dis
ease has already killed from 10000 to
10000 people, and is spreading to new
areas with increasing virulence, says
a Lonuon account.
Its extension to the north will be
of the greatest menace to Egypt. Sci.
entitic reports made on the spot de-
scribe the sleeping sickness as a COM
plant something like that group of
diseases known as meningitis or in
fammation of the brain. 1t begins in.
siiously with changes in the mental
attitude of the patient. From that
time the disease progresses, and the
patient becomes stupid and restless,
and after other symptoms have passed
enters into state of coma and dies.
The duration of the complaint varies
from a month in acute cases to six
months or more in chronic cases. The
disease is practically invariably fatal,
and, although taking longer to cause
death than hydroph obia, may be
classed along with the latter as one
of the most fatal complaints known
to mankind. 1t is contagious and its
spread is assured by overcrowdinr of
many individuals in the same houses.
The depopulation of many large and
thickly populated areas is making
itself felt, and the outlook is very
gloomy. The only scheme yet devised
for the prevention of the spread of the
disease is the isolation of new cases.
