THE IRISH
His Hospitality In Only Edualed By
His Courtesy.

The especial characteristic of the
Irish peasants, according to Frank
Mathew, in Ireland" is an old fash
toned courtesy. They are all sure, he
asserts, that they are descended from
chiefs, and their are ruled ac-
cordingly.
Take shelter In any hut on h noun
tains, and you will be greeted as If Its
inmates had been longing to see You.
This will not be due to the fact that
you seem prosperous; indeed, you
would be even more graciously wei
coined if you were in rags. Nor is their
courtesy only exhibited when they are
hosts. once when | was exploring the
Burren of Glare a ragged old woman
seated by the wayside accosted my
equally ragged driver. Excuse me,
SIR" she said, but did you happen to
meet a loaf on the road?" "'Deed then,
ma'am," said he, bowling respectfully,
'and I'm sorry l did not "Who was
she?" | asked him when we had driven
out of her hearing. Deed then, and l
don't know said he. "'Iis some poor
soul that has lost her loaf and will be

DISEASE STAMPED OUT
Yellow Fever Not So Prevalent on the
Isthmus of Panama as
Formerly.

New York, March 2.-Dr. Charles a.
L. Reed of Cincinnati, a member of
the joint commission appointed by the
United States and the republic of Pan
anna, to adjust property values in dis
pute between the two countries, and
who has just returned from the 18TH
mus, said today that in his opinion the
sanitary conditions in Panama are be-
ing improved as rapidly as could be
expected under the circums ances.
There has been more or less delay in
some directions. but this, the doctor
believes. is due to non-arrival of neces-
sary construction material which has
been ordered in the United States.
While there has been considerable yell
low fever on the isthmus. DIR. Reed said
that he thought the authorities appar-
entity had the situation we'll in hand
when he sailed from Colon a week ago.
There have been just thirty-six
cases of yellow fever in Panama. with
twelve deaths. since the 18th of last
July, when the first case was report
ed" he said.
Colon is not infected, or at least was
not when / left there. Sensational re-
ports of the widespread prevalence of
the disease are due chiefly to the fact
that every case of fever that is sent to
Ancon. where all fever cases are sent,
is at once supposed to be yellow fever.
AS a matter of fact, all such cases. un-
less so fully developed that diagnosis
is unmistakable, are held as suspect
until all doubt is cleared up. In this
way seventy or eighty suspected cases
have been proven not TO be yellow fever
at all. Everything that Intelligence
and energy can do with the limited
facilities available is being done to
stamp out the disease. The water
works and sewerage system that ought
TO have been in place last December a re

latoriness in getting pipe to the 18TH
mus. The first cargo was being dis
charged when / left

COMMITTEE. MAY ATTEMPT
ARIZONA STRIP DEAL

II is barely possible that the
Arizona strip matter will be again
looked into at close range by a special
house committee as the result of a
communication received yesterday
from Representative c. r. Neal. of
Coconino county. Arizona. Mr.. Neat,
writing under date of Feb. 2S, to
Speaker Hull, says, in part:
Being a member of the Arizona
legislature, from Coconino county L
introduced the resolution to congress
protesting against the annexation of
our northern strip to your state with
out our being considered in the mat
ter. While we have our reasons for
desiring to retain that portion of our
territory we must also consider that
Utah has good reasons for desiring TO
secure that section to herself"
The communication then asks the
appointment of a commission by
Speaker Hull to investigate with a
like body from the legislature of
Arizona the merits of the case and
arrive at some agreement of trans
fer that would be satisfactory" to the
state of Utah and the Arizona coun-
ties of Mohave and Coconino.
The special committee appointed by
the speaker consists of Wootton. Mer-
rill and Gotham. AS yet no conclusion
has been reached by the committee
but it is probable that the house will
learn Of it's decision at this afternoon S
session. Two years ago a similar
house committee, composed of Repre-
sentatives d. H. Morris and J. L.
Johnson attempted to negotiate the
transfer but success was not attained
