BRITISH LECTURER SAYS The
DREAD "CRAWCRAW DISEASE
is THUS TRANSMITTED.
Maiady Comes From Africa-Caused
by Peculiar Nematode Worm
Which Destroys Blood.

LONDON. oct. 2S.-A new danger
has been added to the many which,
medical men assert, surround the habit
of kissing.
According to Mr.. Dencer Whites, a
lecturer on dental histology and path
ology at birmingham university, the
.'craw- craW disease common in the
west coast of Africa, has been intro
duced into this country. Birmingham,
he says, has hundreds of cases. while
traces of the disease have been found
in many other places.
The disease is due to the presence
of what is described as the mematOde
worm. which has 4 peculiar penchant
for destroying the white corpuscles in
the blood. The chief symptoms is an
intense itching Of the skin.

and oftener than not one transmits the
disease to the other by kissing.
In one case which came under his
observation the engaged girl was
kissed by her sweetheart who was d
victim to the disease. Shortly after
wards she complained of a terrible
ithcing. The case was incorrectly dag
nosed and the young woman, who
slept with her sister transmitted the
disease. and the latter passed it on to
a younger brother. Thus four persons
became affected through kissing.
In another case a barmaid went to
see her brother. a soldier, on his re-
turn from her brother, a saldier, on
his return from war. They kissed each
other and the result was the young
woman. a few days subsequently, COM
planned of intense itching of the skin.
The soldier was unaware of the fact
that he himself was suffering from the
disease, the mematOde worm being
distinctly shown in a number of blood
films.

dreaded and disastrous results are
sure to follow this treatment, and even
then it will not cure you.

victim was sleeping, is probable.
The remains were found in an old
caved-in roothouse. about 125 feet in
the rear of the abandoned camp. The
wounds indicated the desperation of
enthe murderer, and the precautions
taken by him to make sure his victim
was dead. The first blow was inflicted
by spade, which struck on the temple
and cut "a long cash. Four times was a
knifeblade driven into the left breast;
his threat was cut, and the back of his
body then was dragged feet first to the
place where found.
About $50 feet from the body, hidden
under some brush which the person
who concealed it had broken to cover
it, was found a valise. the contents of
which indicated it was the property of
A. O. Hammerborg.
The murdered man had been en-
ployei at one of O'Brien's camps at
ClOquet river for about nine days. He
left that camp Friday, Oct. a. i'll COM
pany with Hammerborg, and they
started south on the tracks. Saturday,
Hammerborg arrived in Two Harbors
and stated that he had not had thing
to eat for "a day and a half. He carried
his effects in bag over his shoulder.
He took a boat for Duluth that same
evening" He was at the home of his
brother law, in Superior. on Sunday
and on Monday went TO Duluth. where
he called his timecheck. Every pos
sible effort is being made to locate him,
as it is thought he may be able to give
some information.

GONORRHOEA

Gonorrhoea is often regarded by
young men as a trifiing disease, not
needing specially good treatment. But
remember. young man, the disease does
not stop at this point, but Structure,
Lost Manhood, General Debility and
kindred diseases are sure to follow if
not properly treated.
Our treatment consists of thorough
irrigation which cleanses the neck of
the bladder and the bladder itself.
We cure Gonorrhoea in from five to
fifteen days to stay cured.

Mead's Foot Mouth Habit.

Albert Z. Mead. the 'Farrelr' can
of his campaign developed the foot
mouth habit to an alarming degree. He
told the people of Colfax in his speech
there that his party having violated
its pledges of 1902 felt that it would
be safer to make no promises this year
lest they be again violated. He told
the people at Charleston that there was
a very dangerous man running for
governor on the democratic ticket, a
man who had actually threatened to
use all the power of his administration
to get the people what they wanted.
a state railroad commission. He has
told the people in several places that
u republican legislature will never
pass commission bill giving the ap-
pointment of the commission into the
hands of democratic governor. He
told the people of North Yakima that
when Mr.. Farrell was asked to go to
Tacoma to advise and counsel with the
republican state convention he de-
clined to do SO, making it necessary
TOR the convention to get along with
out the counsel and advice of that dis
tinguished democrat
In contrast with these weaknesses
and these blunders made by the rail-
road candidates the democratic can
d1dates stand out in bold relief, unas-
sailed, unsullied and mistaken, making
a dignifled campaign in a clean, hon.
orable manner, taking the people of
the state into their confidence, and dis
cussing the issues Of the cam
paign with them in plain and unequiv-
ocal language.

State Boards Accused.

The state board of equalization, of
which Sam II. Nichols. secretary of
state and candidate for reelection, and
John D. Atkinson, state auditor and
candidate for attorney general. are
members. has been accused of using
the influence of the board to keep down
the assessments of railroad property
of reducing those assessments from the
valuation of S1O,54O per mile main
tanned by the preceding board, TO $4,000
per mile and of reducing the valuation
returned this year by the county board
by practically s2,O0O,O0O or about
$3.50 per mile, at the same time in
creasing the valuations on several
classes of farm and personal prop
erty. These charges have been sub
Stimulated by citing figures from the
annual reports of the board and no eX-
PLANTATION of them has been offered.
TIL state land commission, of which
Secretary of State Sam H. Nichols and
School Superintendent r. B. Bryan are
members. has been accused, in suit
brought in Seattle by Frank H. Paul,
of manipulating the permanent school
fund in such a manner as to enable a
personal and political friend to collect
a commission of $500 for inducing the
board to make loan from the fund to
a municipal corporation of the state.
The suit in which this charge is made
was filed several weeks ago and the
facts concerning it have been widely
circulated through the public press.
No denial or explanation of them has
yet been offered by either of the men
thus charged. or by anyone else in their
behalf.
