Carbolic Acid by Mistake

Mrs. L, A. Underwood had mar
row escape Sunday, by mistake ap-
plying carbolic acid to an aching
ear instead of the prescribed medi-
cine given by DR. Nieukirk. The
fiery liquid blistered the ear and
side of the face down which it ran,
leaving a livid scar wherever it
touched the skin. The prompt ap-
plication of sweet oil to the ear is
the only thing that saved it, says
the doctor. The patient suffered
terribly and is even now in great
pain. Grip is primarily responsible
for the trouble, the patient having
been i'll for more than two weeks

Died.

After battle of three weeks
duration, during which all that
medical skill and maternal love
and devotion could accomplish,
little Ray, youngest son of Mrs.
Peter Anson, passed over to the
great beyond, at 3 o'clock yester-
day morning, aged exactly 10
years and seven months.
An autopsy held upon the de-
ceased by DR.. Galloway and Drs
Housemau & Houseman developed
the fact that death was due to con-
gestion Of the entire brain; in addi-
ton that an enlargement of the left
xentricle of the heart had occurred.
Drs. Smith q Mather and DR.. Cal
laway for weeks past have exerted
their combined knowledge and skill
in heroic efforts to save the boy
and that they succeeded in pro.
longing life many days after death
had practically claimed him is
felt to be true by the many anxious
ones who watched and waited.
When the final summons came,
so gently did the brother of sleep
bid him enter the eternal home,
that any watcher other than the
mother, who kept her sorrowful
vigil at the couch of her precious
boy, might have failed to feel his
dread presence But the mother
was not deceived. God pity herself
and family in their desolation.
Ray was the son of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Bailey, his father having
died some eight years ago at Crook
ston, Mimi, where he lies buried
The grand parents of little Ray
and the parents ef his father, Mr.
AMI Mrs. W d. Bailey, reside here,
The funeral takes place this after
noon at 2 from the family residence,
services under Rev c. r. Waite of
the Baptist church. The psllbear-
,ers are six little schoolmates from
Miss Barrett's room, where little
Ray was a pupil.

From Gathrie, (Okl J, State Capt.
tai, Nov. Sd, 1903:-Mahara's Min
strels at the Brooks Sunday night
were greeted by large audience,
more so than usual for Sunday
night, and proved themselves to be
best colored minstrels on the road.
The audience was pleased with the
performance, which was all that
had been expected. The colored ar
lists in their chorus, quartette and
solo work, their monologue, dance
speclalties, musical specialties and
short plays kept the audience in
attention and produced many
hearty laugh. Manager Brooks was
able to announce last night that he
had secured Mahara's for a return
date to be played on a week night.
From the Wichita, (Kan. J, Eagle,
Dec. IL, 1903:-Mahara's Minstrels
last night at the Crawford was pro-
nounced by large audience as one
OF the best colored minstrels ever
seen. In most colored minstrels the
funny part of the performance is
much overdone, but in this one it is
carried on in such manner that it
never failed to please the audience.
The introduction of lady actors into
Ministries takes out that ancient
eifect, for every theater goer is tired
OF the old-time minstrel show. The
singing and dancing with this show
has no equal; in fact, every act was
far above the average.
From the San Jose, (Calif), Mer-
curry, Feb /, 1904:-At the Victory
theater last night Mahara's Min
stiels were greeted by large and
enthusiastic audience. The show
was a surprise to all, being the larg-
est and best minstrel company ever
In San Jose. The singing was far
superior to that of many companies
that boast an all-star cast. Ma
hara.s carry big lady chorus,
which is quite an innovation for
minstrel company. The curtain
rises on large company of ladies
and gentlemen. The fun makers
and the singing brought numerous
responds and kept the house in con.
vulsions. The singing by the cho-
lus was way above the average,
The olio was interspersed by some
strong vaudeville acts. The show
concluded with a one act musical
Dusty Maidens-which shows up
the whole company to advantage in
Florodora marches, drills and cake
walking.

SURGEON General Wyman Controls.

The authorities of New Orleans and
of the state in which it is located
have acted wisely in calling to the
control of the yellow fever situation
the Marine hospital service of the gen.
eral government. This service won a
signal victory over the yellow scourge
at Havana, and the entire country at
least viii watch its efforts at New
Orleans.
It is useless to say that this should
have been done long ago. 1t is better
late than never, but too much should
not be expected of the Marine hos
pital service in the present month.
The disease is widespread in New Or
leans, where it has a firm foothold.
The known sub-foci now number sew
enty-six, and there may be many I'M
known ones. Thoroughness will mark
every step that Surgeon General Wy
man takes, but he cannot reasonably
hope to accomplish much this month
beyond preventing an extention of the
fever district.
Georgia and Florida on the one side
and Mississippi and Louisiana on the
other have put the quarantine service
at their ports in federal hands. Ala
bama rejects federal aid. How long
she can afford to do so is a serious
question. One thing is certain, the
banana must give way in crisis to
the general good, and it will be strange
indeed if the banana outranks the pub
lie health and general prosperity in
the next legislature.

Canit0l Extension.

Elsewhere Chief Justice Thomas c..
Mcclellan warmly and unfinehingly
defends the action of the supreme
court in preferring a two-story wing
to a three-story addition for the uses
of the supreme court He says the
legislature acted wisely when it prac-
tically made the members of the SUI
preme court the judges of plans and
specifications of a building they are to
occupy. The chief justice proceeds
the nto demonstrate that the three
story plan would have been radically
unadapted for its proposed uses, and
that that building would not even out
wardly have met the general artistic
ends in view, to say nothing of the
architectural entity of the historic old
capitol.
The Age-Herald chiefly desires at

Justice McClellan's communication in
order that they may know the other
side of the problem. The three-story
partisans have freely presented their
views, while scarcely anyone has
spoken in behalf of the plans adopted
by the commission.
Every question has two sides, and
the reader who follows closely the
chief Justices words to their end will
at least see that the capitol extension
problem is capable of two sets of plans
If not more. The seven judges of the
supreme court out-voted the five Other
members of the commission, but they
did not act arbitrarily. They simply
voted in accordance with the lights
before them. Read, then, the Other

Birmingham Clean.

Il came into Birmingham this morning
from Chicago and was struck with the
wonderful Improvement in the appearance
of everything in the city," said a travel
ing man last night at one of the hotels.
The last time l was in Birmingham the
streets were dirty, waste paper was
blowing around In the cutters and fruit
Feelings were lying on the sidewalks.
That was last winter.
Now I am in Birmingham at the very
time when one would naturally expect
TO find fruit Feelings, paper and trash on
the streets, and l am agreeably sur
prisedl to find the streets looking like
the kitchens of a thrifty, New England
housekeeper.
Zone has no idea how it impresses the
visitor to see clean streets. l did not
know anything Aabout the street cleaning
crusade, as I have not seen Birming-
ham paper since l left here. For that
reason the surprise was greater one
! could not understand the situation until
/ bought one of the morning papers and
read the accounts of the street cleaning,
the oiling of the cesspools and all pools
of water, and the general cleaning un
crusade which has been inaugurated.
This is a movement that comes in the
history of all cities. Birmingham is now
being transformed from the large town
into the modern city, and she is receiving
her new clothing. The city is passing
through the second stage of its existence
The next will be when it takes rank as
the leading southern city. which is a day
not long distant"

side.

The county of Jefferson has de-
clared that a quarantine shall be
maintained against Montgomery. How
far this action will supercede quaran-
tines declared by municipalities with
in the county has perhaps not been
fully determined but no conflict should
arise over this question. Each and
all desire to preserve the public
health, and each and all should work
to render the county clean, to kill the
mosquitoes, and to keep off persons
who come from infected points. 1t is
prominently a matter that calls for a
maximum of cooperation and a min
imum of squabbling.
Every part of this big and populous
county can be and should be rendered
fever-proof. This can be done by remov-
ing the possible breeding places of mos
uuitoes either by filling them in or else
by coating the water that must re-
main with petroleum. Filth and
weeds should be removed on general
principles, but stagnant water should
be drained away or treated for special
and urgent reasons. Let all cooper
ata for the general good

Forty Doctors Wanted,

The Marine hospital service calls for
the services at New Orleans of forty
doctors. Doctors who have handled
yellow fever patients will no doubt be
preferred, and particularly those who
are practically immunes. But forty
doctors the government sorely needs
and must have.
Here is a chance to serve the coun-
try as much at. least as going to war
The fever Of the tropics is a deadly
foe, and the doctors who face it will
be heroes indeed, and will deserve well
of the country all the rest of their
lives.
The forty doctors called for are
needed at once. 1t is not pleasant TO
exchange a comfortable practice in Sc
cure and happy homes for one in the
Italian district of New Orleans, but
the country calls, and forty doctors
will assuredly respond. This country
is not accustomed to calling in vain
for men to step into deadly breaches.
The truth is, few appreciate the per-
sonal risks that all physicians are
called on to encounter in the course
of their professional services. There
are epidemics of some diseases always
in the air, and the doctor who is
called in is but human being subject
to disease as well as other persons
But the doctors who answer the call
of Surgeon General Wyman will go to
meet unusual dangers, for all mos
quitoes at New Orleans cannot be
killed. One generation of the insects
doth tread upon another's heels, sc
fast they follow. However, great as
the risk is the country will be disap
pointed if the great healing profes
sion does not offer the services o.
forty skillful scientists and practica
practitioners for service at New Or
leans.

come of the conference is also held
All see that the talks given out by the
two sets of ENJOYS have been directed
at public opinion. which is popularity
supposed to have some relation to the
result of the conference.
The sets of ENJOYS may, too, have
been talking at each other. Japan
certainly wishes Russia to know in ad-
vance that her demands will be by no
means light, and Russia wishes Japan
to believe that she will not accept too
drastic terms. Horse traders at sim
liar stage in the proceedings talk in a
like manner. All such talk should be
taken with many allowances.
It is known that modern negotia-
ton does succeed in lessening the
penalty of the conquered in war.
When Theirs met Bismarck in peace
conference thirty-four years ago, after
the Franco russian war, the latter
demanded as a war indemnity $780,
100000. Theirs arose and in dram
attic manner told the Iron Chancellor
to go ahead and spread his armies
over France-no such Indemnity could
be paid. 1t was then reduced to bill
lion dollars, which France accepted
and paid. The talks that M. Witte
has INDUCED in since he left Ham,
burg have a similar purpose in view.
He desires to reduce the indemnity.

THE railroads are in no way respon=

These specials reach Birmingham some

Hickman and His Umbrella.

Springs Yesterday, was asked by one
of his friends under the railway shed
why 1t was that he (Rickman) never
carried an umbrella when it rained and
usually hoisted a bombershoot in clear
weather.
II have known you for ten years, Rick
man." said the enquiring FRIEND land
i've often noticed that when the rain
was falling in torrents and everyone else
was seeking shelter, you would walk
placidly down the street, your hands
in your pockets and your face turned
up toward the falling raindrops. The next
day when the streets were crowded with
jostling shoppers and not even a parasol
was in sight. you'd suddenly appear with
an umbrella hoisted over your head its
ribs jabbing people in the head and on
the side of the face.
Now, why Is it that you persist in
carrying an umbrella when the sky Is
eloudless and persist in leaving 1t at
home on rainy days?"
We'll" said Hickman. amy fool knows
enough to carry an umbrella when il
rains and leave 1t home when it clears.
1t takes wise man to invert that order
and treat his umbrella intelligently. The
truth is, however. that I don't mind the
raindrops and | do mind the midsummer
