PEEP UNDER LONDON LID

NEW YORK, July pa letter from
Representative Big Tim" Sullivan has
been published here. 1t was written at
the Savoy Hotel, London, and is re
view of his travels
After visiting Killarney he went to
Dublin. which. he says, resembles Bos-
ton very much, but the streets are
wider and kept very clean"
Big Tim while at Dublin paid a
visit to Squire" Croker, who has an es-
tate at Leopardstown, eight miles from
Dublin. In describing the place he says:
Squire Croker's Place.
1T comprises eighty acres of ground
and has a fine house which Mr.. Croker
is rebuilding of marble and granite al
cost of 5000. Mr. Croker bought all
his furnishings in Dublin, and the build
ing stone used. which Is a beautiful
granite. is right out OF the mountains
here. This has made him very popular.
When we inquired along the road for his
place everybody seemed to know him.
AS we reached n turn in the road
leading to Mr.. Croker's place l saw the
first American flag since left home. 1t
looked well flying from the top of Mr..
Croker's unfinished dwelling.
big Tim tells about the times he
had with Mr.. Croker, The second time
he started to visit the Squire" he was
TO be met at the railroad station by
Mr.. Crokers jaunJing car Unfortu-
nately. Tim got off at the wrong
station and had to walk five miles TO
the Croker estate. And it was hot Near
his destination he met an old woman
selling tinware. He bought the whole
stock for As Sd, then told her to sell
II over again.
IF get half the. blessings she called
after me-" said Big Tim, - there is
front seat waiting for me in heaven
now"
Trouble With His Baggage.
In London, Representative Sullivan
had some trouble with his trunks. OF
the English baggage system he says:
''They give you a check for nothing
but you have TO watch your trunks at
every station
Notwithstanding this and the fact that
he had trouble getting rooms at the
Savoy, big Tim" admits that London

Practical Methods.

screening of all fever patients and
screening of water containers show that
this disease can be controlled by meas

The following years these same
measures were taken as precautions and
yellow fever did not again make its
appearance.
The fever in New Orleans now is not
as bad an outbreak as in 1897 AT that

veyed by mosquitoes had not been dis

No MOSQUITOES. No Fever.

Generally speaking. the territory sub
ject to yellow fever invasion is all the
States south OF Mason and Dixon line.
with the exception OF certain mountain
Gus localities and other points where
mosquitoes are not found. If there are
no mosquitoes there viii be no yellow
fever.
Hence every community subject to
these should at once begin a warfare
against mosquitoes This should be done
by sulphur fumigation of houses and de-
struction Of breeding places by drain
age and the use Of crude petroleum.
1T is hoped that these principles
which We're fully proved TO be correct
in Havana and in Laredo, Texas two
years ago, viii be put to general prac-
tice and Will be effective in limiting
the disease. Referring to the report
OF the service for 1904 I find this com
ment:
In Nuevo Laredo, Mexico. where
very little anti-mosquito work was done,

SURGEON WYnAN
TAKES THE HELM
Has Charge of the Yellow
Fever Situation.
CONDITIONS ARE SERIOUS
Well Known Authority, However, Hopes
to Have the Matter Well in
Hand Soon.

Surgeon General Walter Wyman, of
the Public Health and Marine Hospital
Service, arrived here yesterday after Il
hurry trip from Portland. Ore, where
he had gone to attend the Lewis and
Clark exposition. Surgeon General Wy
man at once took charge Of the yellow
fever situation. which he regards as
serious. In discussing the spread of
the fever and the precautions the peo-
pie should take Surgeon General Wyman
said to Times reporter:
In the first place. in the work going
on in New Orleans there is hope that
the fever may be suppressed and that
it will not be largely epidemic. The fact
that there are twenty-five foci of infec-
ton in the city shows how difficult will
be the work of suppression.
Fighting the Fever.
Yet, according TO more than twenty
five reports received today the work is
we'll organized and is being conducted
along scientific as we'll as practical prin-
ciples. Much depends upon the details,
the efficiency and promptness with which
measures are carried out.
"Au things considered, the spread of
the fever has not been rapid. and this
may be due TO measures already taken
These are, briefly:
THE establishment of hospitals to
which all yellow fever patients are
taken; the use of mosquito nets around
these patients to exclude mosquitoes;
the destruction Of mosquitoes by sulphur
in infected houses the destruction of
mosquitoes elsewhere by drainage or
drying pools and wet places where mos
quitoeS might breed; the use of petro-
leum upon such places as cannot be
drained, and the screening Of ctsterns
to prevent mosquitoes from laying eggs
therein. This last is very important, be
cause of the large number Of cisterns
in New Orleans
"A house to house inspection has been
promised, and the citizens seem to be
entering heartily into the war against
mosquitoes, subscribing literally and per-
sonally participating by wards and pre-
cincts- The service has several of its
most experienced men in New Orleans
Surgeon White Is in charge,
Efforts are being made to prevent the
spread OF the fever TO the surrounding
city and States. To this end inspectors
are placed on all trains leaving New Or
leans. Five detention camps, one for
each railroad leaving New Orleans have
been established, Persons who desire
TO leave New Orleans will be detained
five days, those bound to some States
six days. If then they have developed
no fever they will be given pratique, or
a certificate Of safety, and allowed TO
proceed.

Breaking the Voice.

The peculiar physiological causes Of
what is called the breaking Of the
voice are not quite understood, but it
is known to depend Immediately upon
an organic change in the larynx, the
organ of the voice which occurs in the
male sex between the ages of IA and
16. Before that the larynx of boys re-
sembles that of girls, but when the
voice begins to break the vocal chords
become heightened at least one-third,
the angle Of the thyroid cartilage be-
comes enlarged, and the muscles
which connect the organs Of the voice
with the hypoid bone and the base Of
the tongue become elongated.
While the change of form is taking
place the voice is untitled for singing
and should be used only with great
care. In other words, the breaking of
the voice is due to the rapid devel-
opment. Of the larynx, which takes
place at certain ages and which leads
to a change in the range Of the voice.
The peculiar harshness of the voice
when it is thus breaking seems to be
due to a temporary congestion and
swollen condition of the mucous MEM
brane Of the vocal chords accompany
ing the active growth Of the whole
larynx
