The Prevalence of Pneumonia,

The prevalence of pneumonia in many
parts of the country is the cause of no
little anxiety. While medical science Is
trying to determine the most probable
cause or causes of the dread disease
and seeking to combat its direful con-
sequences, it is not for the layman dog
matically to assert that this or that
condition Of things may be held respon-
sible for making the malady epidemic.
Yet. as science generally attributes
marked increase in pneumonia to sud
den and extreme varia tions in temper
ature, perhaps the layman may say that
overheated houses, offices, factories,
stores, ETC., produce condition favor
able to the spread of this exceedingly
dangerous affection.
To step from house or office heated
to 80 degrees or higher into an outside
temperature of from 20 degrees all the
way down to zero and sometimes low
er must subject the body and especial
ly the respiratory organs to a most Sc
we're and menacing strain. Thus it is
that the disease carries of the poor as

well as the rich but does not number
among its victims many who either are
careful not to get overheated or who
cannot afford very high tempera lures
in winter.
If it be true that fruitful cause Of
pneumonia is overheating bad air and
sudden changes in temperature it is not
difficult to find partial remedy or at
least reasonable precaution against
the disease This Is to keep our houses
and other buildings moderately and
comfortably warm. avoid crowded street
cars as much as possible, keep much In
the open air and see that living, work
ing and sleeping rooms are well ven
tllated Such course would save fuel,
give health and doubtless do much to
ward off the most dangerous of cold
weather maladies.

Railroad building In Cuba has been
pushed with remarkable diligence and
success since Spain lost control Of the
island. At the time Of the Spanish
American war communication between
Santiago and the western part of the
island was a matter Of some days, and
the engineer who made topograph-
ical examina ton of the intervening ter
ritory was quite doubtful If railway
connecting the desired points were fea-
sible. But a railway has been built
from Santiago to Santa Clara. and i'm
portant branch lines are expected to be
opened to traffic at an early day. This
will cause the settlement and develop
ment of certain rich sections Of the Is
land which, by reason of their previous
inaccessibility, had not been occupied
and cultivated.

At the recent automobile show In
Paris. which was opened under the
patronage of President Loubet. note
worthy exhibit was a novel motor
train. including a locomotive and sew
eral cars, says Harper's Weekly. BY
an ingenious method of coupling the
train can turn corners without the aid
of rails. A jointed revolving shaft con-
Meeting the train transmits the power
Of the locomotive to all the cars, turn
ing two wheels on each, and by con-
trivance under the control of the engi-
neer each car in turning makes exactly
the same arc as the locomotive.

I'VE always wondered what was the
matter with particular hen in our
flock of chickens" said resident Of
the east side of La Porte Tex, to the
Chronicle reporter of that city the 9TH
er day. "She would always NOPE
around on the outside of the flock when
the others were feeding and was never
known to scrap with the other chickens
for a morsel of feed. When our atten.
ton was called to her actions we
thought she was sickly. but she grew,
thrived. laid as many eggs as any of
the other hens and differed from the
rest of the flock only by her display Of
timidity when feeding. Finally we con-
cluded one day TO put her in the pot.
When we dressed her we found she
had no gall, and our curiosity was sat
isfied''

Not an Cnmixed Evil.

A peculiar form of fraud has been
brought to light in Texas. where there
has grown up strong public sentiment
against railroads, which is backed by
stringent legislative enactments and
strict Interpretation by the courts 1t
Is found chat there is a gang Of profes-
siopai Victims" opera ting on the vari-
Gus railroads, going from one to anoth-
eE. meeting with accidents and suing
fos damages. They travel in groups.
so that there is never any trouble about
getting the right sort of witnesses to
the manner of accident or the extent Of
the injuries. Texas juries are known
TO be friendly to the suitor against rail-
roads, and so far the gang has had lit
tie trouble in securing verdicts for SUBJ
stantial sums. By the operations Of
this coterie of sharpers damages on ac-
count of personal injuries received in
that state have increased, it is asserted
by railroad officials. from S295,000 in
1888 to 100000 in 1903, an increase
out of all proportion to the growth Of
population and the extension of rail-
road activity.
This method of making living must
be, to say the least, decidedly risky,
though possibly the excitement of it
atones for the hospital experience.
While 1t is not to be commended, it
may have its beneficial uses The
knowledge that a loose jointed crowd
Of swindlers is aboard, ready to be piled
up in heap at the first unusual lurch
of the train, must have a salutary, re-
straining effect on engineers.

Longstreet outlived all OF the corps
commanders who fought against him
on the great battlefelds of the war
with one exception. That exception is

antagonist who kept Longstreet from
seizing Little Round Top at Gettys-
burg.

1t is sometimes said in Boston that
the fear Of the professional victim is
the reason for the unexpected courte-
sizes of street car conductors who wait
until their alighting passengers are
quite clear of the car before starting
on. Thus the Ill wind that blows dam
ages out of the treasury Of the railroad
companies may fan them to a realiza-
ton that they owe certain courtesies to
the public beyond the mere hauling
from place to place.

n Word OF Warning,

The Boise Capital News, a democratic
newspaper which fought Duboisism bit
terly in tue campaign just closed, in its
last issue says:
"Those state papers that feel the ne
cessity al writing editorials on the pass
ing of Dubois, should bear in mind that
it is a generally approved custom to
speak gently OF the dead-to spread tie
mantle of charity over their shortcom-
ings as il were. In this case, however.
it will require a mantle as big as a wag-
on cover, and then the corners of the
heap may stick out"
People who think that Tuesdays cleo
tion was Fred T. Dubois funeral, had
better take a second thought. Dubois
has not been hauled to the political
cemetery yet. The campaign closed was
in reality only the beginning of the
latest scheming Of that astute and wiley
politician and his eradication from the
politics of Idaho and final interment IL
the political graveyard depends upon
the developments of the next two years.
Upon the wreck of the democratic party,
and il is Il worse wreck than anyone ex-
pected, he hopes to build up an anti
Mor-1on party upon which he can
again ride into the United States senate
two years hence. He is shrewd and un-
derstands the political game as no other
man in the west understands it and he
plays the cards cooly and to win for him.
