DISEASE IN TIE MINES
PRofuss Use 81 water spFayiaB IN Col.
EisFIss Has Assisted I'm EntrO-
dusAnE Serious Disorder.

The profuse use Of water spraying IN
mines has unfortunately assisted In the
introduction Of q most serious disease
into eoIIeries. viz: -ankylostomaiasiS, "
which IL at present mostly confined TO
Austrian, German and Hungarian
mines, but has been discovered IN some
mines IN Cornwall, and also In AustrGliR,
where those suffering from the disease
are called earth eaters, " says Mines and
Minerals. The higher the temperature
and the greater the point Of sGturation
the more easily Il the parasite propa-
sated, and therefore It's fRvorits habitat
Il IN the damp and badly ventilated
places. The larvae can exist IN any tenn
perature above 4s degrees F., and have
been found on the higher parts Of props
and bars, but not near the floor FOrtu-
nately, the first accounts are believed to
have exaggerated the danger, and were
incorrect IN stating that the infection
could be carried through the air; but
later investigations seem TO point out
that Il can only be taken in through the
mouth. and, therefore. clean hands and
clean water, when partaking Of foods,
are the principal safeguards.

law; and before two congresses had
passed there was nobody else about the
capitol who could compare with him.
Reed himself depended on Kinds alb
solutely. The great speaker was not
much Of an adept IN the intricacies Of
parliamentary Law and didn'tpretend to
be. He was concerned In reaching re-
suits and having made up his mind
what he wanted TO do he had q way Of
turning to the experts about him for
information as to how he might do It.
Kinds was always able TO find q way
and the speaker never hesitated in fol-
lowing out Kinds suggestions no mat
ter where they might lead.
There has not been a republican
speaker since who has not been even
more dependent on Kinds than Reed
was. When Reed was In the chair he
noticed that whenever the house got
into a parliamentary tangle Kinds
would HE himself TO the speakers

sheets Of paper, upon consulting which
