FOR WHITE

cry Of a new 'cure for consumption. This

The statement is made that II patients
with we'll developed pulmonary tubercu-
losis have been absolutely cured and are
now good subjects for life insurance risks
Fifty other patients are still under treat
ment. and said TO be progressing satisfac-
torily
Experiments along these lines have
been going on at the hospital for several
years and occasional brief accounts have
been published OF cures alleged 20 have
been performed. The basis OF the work
has been that 10 cure consumption be-
yond the incipient stage an unknown
something must be found in the diet"
Now IL is declared that this unknown nu-
triment or remedy has been at last dis
covered In vegetable Juice.
Accompanying the circular are the
names OF two New York. physicians. who
IL is stated were appointed by the hospital
authorities to observe and report on the
experiments and they speak in most can
guine terms OF what has been accomplish
ed and what will doubtless follow as the
work proceeds.
In addition 10 applying the raw vegeta-
BILE juice as a cure for the most obstinate
consumption, the hospital circular an
nounces that "it IL believed. moreover.
that this may lead TO a means by which
everybody may be rendered immune from
the deadly tuberculosis bacili, Just as vac
cination safeguards from smallpox"
II is stated that the experiments were
begun on a small scale, with only few
vegetables ground by hand. Later ma
chinery was introduced and nearly every
vegetable used as food employed.

CLOUDBURST
DESTROYS
Nine LIVES

Trinidad, Col. Aug 25-A cloudburst in
the vicinity OF Rhode sanyon, through
which ordinarily a small stream OF water
runs last night converted the canyon into
a torrent which swept through the towns
OF Berwind and Tobasco, wrecking every
thing in its path and drowning at least
nine persons.
Tho property loss is estimated at hun
dreds OF thousands OF dollars, suffered
mostly by the Colorado Fuel and Iron
company and the Colorado and Southern
Railway company. The former company
had mines and coke ovens scattered along
between the two mining towns OF Berwind
and Tobasco and although they were sit
uated mostly out OF reach OF the flood the
tramways connecting the different prop
critics Of the company were nearly wreck
ed and the loss in this particular will be
large.
Communication with the stricken towns
Is constantly interrupted by the storm
which still RACES. so that no account of
the loss OF life and property can be OBJ
tained Relief parties are on their way
in 10 the canyon
From all directions are coming reports
OF the disastrius effects Of the storm
which enveloped Trinidad and the terri
tory adjacent for miles, but no further
loss OF life than al Berwind and Tobasco
has been reported.

UNNECESSARY BURDEN.
According to tables compiled in the bu-

year 1902 received from insurance COM
panles, exclusive OF taxes, over S50OO.000
more than they expended in the su-
pervision OF those companies. The iniquity
OF such a condition Of obvious, for it lays
an unnecessary burden upon all who seek
10 provide for their families and 10 avert

is estimated that the expense OF federal
supervision would not be over ten per
cent of what state supervision now costs.

STRIVE FOR ORIGINALITY.
Men Should Not Copy the Ways OF
Others, They Should Live
Like Themselves.

Do not be afraid of being original,
even eccentric. Be an independent,
self-reliant, new man, not just one
more individual in the world Do not
be copy Of your grandfather, of
your father, or of your neighbor That
is as foolish as for a violet to try to
be like a rose, or for daisy to ape
a sunflower, writes Orison SWEET Mar
len, in Success Magazine. Nature has
given each a peculiar equipment for
It's purpose. Every man is born to do
certain work in an ordinary way.
If he tries to copy some other man,
or to do some other mans work, he
will be an abortion, a misfit, failure.
Do not initiate even your heroes.
Scores of young clergymen attempted
to make their regulations by imitat-
ing Beecher. They copied his voice
and conversation, and initiated his ges-
lures and his habits, but they fell as
far short of the great mans power as
the chrome falls short of the master
piece Where are those hundreds of
imitators now? Not one Of them has
ever made any stir in the world.

NEW SHOES EVERY DAY.
Great Idea of an Extravagant Mother
for Doing Away with
Cleaning.

In his article on 1.-The Shameful Mis-
use of Wealth." now running in Sue
cess Magazine, Cleveland Moffett has
this to say of an extrayagant mother
whose little boy wore white kid
shoes:
'The case of a child without shoes
or stockings reminds me of a story
from Chicago, an absolutely true story,
as | happen to know, of woman
there, the daughter of one of the
richest men in the world. She al
ways has her little boy wear white kid
Choes, and, owing to the smoke of the
city and the bad condition of the
streets, she has had trouble in keeping
them clean. One day she met another
mother who was also perplexed by
the shoe-cleaning problem, and she
said, with a naive enthusiasm, as if
she had made a great discovery: You
know, have solved that whole diff
Guilty. I don't send little Johnnie's
shoes to the cleaners at all, any more
I just buy so many dozen pairs at a
time, and let him wear new pair
every day. It's a great ideal"

THE WAR CORRESPONDENT.
Precedent for His Suppression Has
Been Furnished by the
Japanese.

In discussing the question: HAS the
war correspondent seen his best days."
a writer in the Reader Magazine for
April says:
Military men have made con.
scienceless publicity the excuse for
much ineptitude and failure. They have
failed to see how they could hold the
correspondent in check in countries
where the liberty of the press was
considered sacred. But Japan has
been direct, sensible and effective In
her acts: Ethically speaking, it was
a case of where the liberty Of the
press was commensurate with the
liberty of Japan. Japan mastered
the correspondents, and effective mill
tary commanders will have this pre-
cedent. They will have to find some
other excuse than the public betrayal
of their plans to carry. 1t is evident
that the correspondent must pocket his
irritation, and look upon himself, not
as creature privileged to disrupt
plans merely to please his editor and
crafty his reading contingency, but
as one man in the mass. who, like
others, can be utilized for public good,
but restrained when he is menace"

Over a Duck Dinner.

Gov George G. Pardee, of California,
was the guest of honor at an elaborate
duck dinner given at the Sutter club, in
Sacramento, recently. The host of the
evening was w. e. Gerber. Following
the dinner, an informal discussion of the
proposed game laws before the legisla-
ture took place. The sentiment of the
gathering was that the bag limit for
ducks should remain at so, and that the
bill changing the limit to 25 should be
defeated. The measure providing for a
license for market hunters was favored
by the members of the legislature pres
INT at the gathering. Gov. Pardee ex-
pressed himself in favor Of all legisla-
ton that would really protect the fish
and game of the state.-Dan Beard, in

Military Courtesies.

Japanese took among their captures two
century workmanship. On learning that
hey were a present to Gen. Kuropatkin
Gen. Kuroki promptly dispatched them
20 the Russian outposts with polite
1ote ending: May the Towers of friend

Japanese as "a people of generous
