HE IS JUSTLY ENTITLED
TO A MONUMENT

Bisbee, Ariz., Aug, 2.-There is a
movement to erect statue over the
grave of George Warren, the prospec-
tor who discovered and opened up the
greatest copper camp in the world,
that of Bisbee, Arizona.
The discoverer of this camp lies
buried in an almost unmarked grave
in the cemetery of this city, only a
small headstone with his initials
roughly carved, telling where his
bones are crumbling TO dust.
In appreciation of his great service
and the hardships undergone before
he made his precious find, the officers
OF several of the larger mining compa
nies hereabouts have headed a list
to raise the money for suitable mon
ument to the deceased, and the move
ment meets with popular favor, and
viii result in raising a large sum for
the purpose.

President of Louisiana State Board
of Health.
there is every confidence in the the
ory.
People Did Not Cooperate.
1t is not expected that the applica-
tion of the yellow fever dogma in
New Orleans will be an absolute sue
cess, for several reasons, two princi-
pally: The first is, that the great
bulk of the public here, in the alb
sence of the fever, refused to heed the
patient efforts OF DR.. Kohnke and the
medical fraternity to educate the com
munity to take even the most primi-
tive precautions to rid the city OF the
"stegomyia." The result is that there
are now being bred here thousands of
these mosquitoes which would never
have come into existence if the people
had been willing TO take their les
sons before the present emergency
arose.
The other reason is that the absence
of a sewerage system, the lack of a
modern water works system to fur
nish filtered water necessitates the
retention of a system of obsolete
above-the-ground cisterns, and the
presence everywhere of stagnant
water.
The Saving Wire Screen.
No yellow fever hospital properly
double screened and then having each
cot individually net enclosed, had
been provided until the present out
break of the fever. Now one has been
purchased outright and prepared un-
der the direction of DR.. Whyte, with
the representation on his part that
presently every port on the gulf coast
of this country will soon be equipped
with a similar hospital The result,
he says, will be that in the future,
yellow fever will be treated as any
other disease, and with no more dan
ger or even alarm on the part of the
community.
Nevertheless, it is deemed abso-
lutely certain that if the people will
join hands with the doctors, so con-
vincing will be the demonstration of
the yellow fever and mosquito facts
that Major Reed established in Ha-
vana, that not only New Orleans, but
the whole south, will be aroused to
the possibilities of immunity to the
attacks of the yellow scourge, and
that, too, with the elimination of all
the present quarantine bars, the
greatest menace TO commerce in the
south.

New Orleans, La, Aug. 2.-The yel-
low lever situation in New Orleans is
now attracting general attention the
world over, inasmuch as the mosquito
thee V is being thoroughly tested for
the hrst time on the mainland of this
continent.
DR.. Edmond Souchon, president OF
the state board of health of Louisiana
and DR.. Quitman Kohnke, president OF
the city board of health of New Or
leans, are now perhaps the two busiest
officials OF health departments in the
whole United States. They are old
Louisiana practitioners with much eX-
perience in epidemics of yellow fever.
Both are thoroughly welded to the
mosquito theory OF infection. But
one of the three species of mosquito
common to the gulf states carries
yellow fever-the "stegomyia fascia-
ta." The "anopheles" is the malaria
fever-carrying mosquito. The third is
the variety common to all parts OF
the civilized world, from the Klondike
to the equator.

United States public health and ma
rine hospital service, is firmly we'd

on record in a conference with Gov
ernor Newton c. Blanchard, of Lou
isiana, in this city.
Governor Blanchard asked Dr.
Whyte just how much confidence he
had in the mosquito theory.
DR.. Whyte replied: Il have just
this much confidence in 1t. The dear
est things on earth to me are my wife
and children. Now you are priv
ileged TO take the most virulent case
of yellow fever in this city and allow
me to make the proper mosquito
screen safeguards, and l will allow
my wife and children to sleep in the
adjoining room with myself, all dur.
ing the patients illness, or until he
dies. That is just how much conf
dence | have in the theory"
Governor Blanchard, upon this re,
ply, said that, although medical lay
man, he would hencefOrth subscribe
to it fully without hesitation.
This story became general property
in New Orleans, with the result that

the Louisiana National Reserves, to
proceed with sufficient forces to Lake

the protection of Louisiana fishermen,

Captain Bostwick today made a re-

armed Mississlppians had been cross

turing schooners, and that they have
stopped the fishing in Lake Bogne
