The Yellow Fever at New Orleans.

With $50 cases of yellow fever at New
Orleans the situation may well alarm
the medical authorities in that city,
and the cities in communication with it
are justified in the prompt precautions
they are taking to prevent a spread of
the epidemic within their borders.
With the admirable modern methods
for fighting the disease which have
been developed within the past few
years, the epidemic should not be per-
mitted to gain very great Roadway
and may soon be stamped out without
any great loss of life. 1t is a terrible
disease. however, and the memories of
the cpidemics in earlier years are fresh
in the minds of the people in our south
ern cities.
throughout that section is the year of
the great epidemic. about 5000 deaths
occurred i'm New Orleans and Memphis
There has been no bad epidemic since
the ono in Florida in 1883, and until the
present outbreak it has been six years
since single case of the disease was
reported in New Orleans. In the old
times it was always easy to trace the
disease to infection from Havana, but
since the thorough sanitation of that
city by General Wood, in 1899. no case
of yellow fever has been reported and
now we witness the strange spectacle
Of Havana quarrantinins itself against
New Orleans.
Doctors no longer have to fight in the
dark IN contcnding with the yellow
fever epidemic as they did in the ter
rible year of the pcstilence Of 1878. 1t
appears that the New Orleans cases
have their origin in British Honduras.
| md this fact emphasizes the need to
persuade the Central American govern
| m"nt of the necessity Of following the
| example of the I'nite'l States and Cuba
| disease. Mexico has already followed
| that example and our government is
| Panama. There is little reason to fear
| that the New Orleans experiences will
| be anything approaching the appalling
epidemic of q years ago.

Comfort for Baldheads.
Chicago Chronincle.)

Chicago ChrOnincle.)
Everything i'm this world has it's
Compensations. and writer in d late
medical journal conveys the comfort
ing information that baldheaded peO-
pie are immune from pulmonary
tuberculosis. With another cerebral
stimulant the case is slightly different
Badness is certainly promoted by
mental application. AS ii general thing
bald people are intellectual people. or
at least. people whose minds are over
taxed either by study or by worry. and
it is a well-known fact that intellect
ual activity is promotive of health in
general. 1t often happens that pa
ticnt who has been bedridden or an in
valid for years is cured by becoming
mentally excited over something, some
times in a moment of time AS the
brain and the lungs have large arterial
and nervous connections. it may be
true that mental activity such as pro-
duCes badness might also vitaliZe and
energiZc the lungs and heart. We do
not pretend that this is wholly salts
factory explanation. and we respect
fully suggest the prOpriety of con-
vention of baldheadS to find out wheth-
or bald people are ever cOnsumptive
and. # they are not. what is the exr,l-
nation of such Il singular phenomenon.

The Location of the Navy Yard.

Frequent references to the place of
the conference of the peace commits
sioncrs as being in New Hampshire
rather than In Maine has led to a
thorough examination of the official
files ut Washington relative to the So
called Portsmouth navy yard" 1t al
pears that when Congress. about 1900.
decided to locate a navy yard at that
point on the Atlantic coast, it procured
SO acres for the site. and references
show that the government was under
the impression that the land was To-
Gated in New Hampshire. The navy
yard. therefore was officially designated
as the Portsmouth navy yard" and
has since been so referred to in all
government documents. A few years
later doubts arose as to whether the
site of the navy yard had really be-
longed to New Hampshire or Maine.
and a little investigation showed that
the land had originally been a part Of
kittery, Maine, and never a part Of
New Hampshire.
This point being settled. the gov
eminent at Washington promptly APP
FLIED to the State of Maine for "ces-
sion of the jurisdiction of the island on
which the navy yard at Portsmouth is
situated This was in 1921. and a
few weeks after the request was made
the Maine Legislature granted the de-
sired cession. reserving, however. the
right of serving processes in the navy
yard and to arrest criminals there.

A Monument to General Knox.

Next year will be the Tooth annivers-
Henry Knox, Washington's first secre-
tary of war. and a most prominent and
heroic figure of the American revolu.
ton. 1t is to be hoped that before that
anniversary falls, October IS. 1906. Con-
gress will brush the dust off the bill
appropriatins $25,OO3 for the erection Of
a monument or statue to the memory
of General Knox. 1t is n pity that this
matter has been neglected so long, but
at this time when renewed honor is be-
ing paid to the memory OF our Revolu-
tionary heroes. and especially as next
year will mark the close CT century
since his death, it will BE- most proper
for our national government to pass
the bill which has been before 1T for
years. While General Knox spent the
closing years Of his life in our State.
and was for a score Of years or more
Ole of our most distinguished citizens.
he belongs to the whole country rather
than Maine, and it IS the national gov
eminent which should erect a suitable
monument to his memory.
Maine has too few such monuments
to the memory of the great men whom
1t has reared and of whom it is par
ticularly proud. There is a prospect,
thanks to the prompt action of the
Portland city government and the gen.
crosby of New York citizen, that a
handsome public monument will soon
be erected in Portland to the memory
of Thomas Z. Reed. 1t would be great
ly to the credit of our state and our
people if there were any prospect of the
erection of similar monuments to
Blaine. Fessenden, Hamlin, Evans and
other SONS of the State whose activity
in national affairs has reflected i'm
mortal glory upon the name of Maine.

arrested within the limitations of the
navy yard, it is the sheriff of York
county. Maine. or one of his deputies
who goes there for this purpose. and
lot a New Hampshire officer.
This has been the case for 81 years,
and whether Kittery or Portsmouth
gets the credit in history as being the
place where the Russian and japanese
peace commissioners meet, the fact re-
mains that their actual meeting place
is i'm Kittery. 1t would be a very prop
er and fitting thing for the government
to change the designation of the navy
yard from the Portsmouth navy
yard" to the "Kittery navy yard"
Such a change would be in the interest
of geographical and historical accuracy
and would give the credit to the good
old Maine town where it belongs. New
Hampshire can hardly object to such
a change for it is small defence Of
the present official name to urge that it
has been applied for century. 1t has
always been a wrong designation and
should not be perpetuated. 1t is to be
hoped that the publicity given the mat
ter by the present meeting of the
peace commissioners may result in the
desired change.
