TO PREVENT DISEASE
FIRST STEP TOWARDS STAMPING
 OUT INFECTION.
Important Work Is Done at Meeting of the International sani-
 taFy Convention in
 Washington.

Washington, Oct 13--A first great step towards the prevention of conta- gious diseases was taken today when the members of the International san itary Convention adopted the forty-nine articles of the Paris Convention of De- cember 8, 1908, with only few modi- fications, required by the conditions in tropical countries.
 The articles, which are now engross- ed in Spanish and English, will be signed by the delegates tomorrow morning and when ratified by the diff ferent South and North American eovernments, there will be on practi- cally all of the American continent one system of quarantine and preventive me asures. This Is calculated to put an end to the evil of good work in one State being undone by the negligent methods in a neighboring State. It was decided that the United, States Pharmac opoeia should be translated in- to Spanish and that first edition of 5000 copies should be published.
 pr. L. o. Howard, the Entomologist of the Department of Agriculture, who has made special study of the yellow fever mosquito. read a paper on the spread of that Insect Tn the United states and some parts of Mexico. Since 1t has generally been believed that yell low fever can only be spread by mos quitoes. 1t is of the greatest import ance, he said, to know where those mosquitoes are found. In regard to the distance they are able to fly out on

"How Baxter Butted In.n

There was more hilarity last night at the Bijou Theatre at the second per- formance of How Baxter Butted In and again the bulk of the laughter was due to Sidney Toler.

If possible, improved over his work of Thursday night. and by his frank methods of doing things and of the audience from first to last cur tain The work of the actor deserves to be called clever because he has original ways of pronouncing and mod ulafing the lingo that is put into the mouth of the easy-going drummer by the author of the piece, Owen Davis.
 Next to Mir. Toler in the funny list was Mir. Nichols, who made himself decidedly one of the best hotel boy propositions a Montgomery audience is acquainted with. He has an in you say" at any old time In his part and of 1t the audience never tired. He had plenty of stage business extra, too. and thiso contributed to his popularity

LECTURES AT ST. PETERS.
Distinguished Priest to Speak on Cath
 oIIc DOctr triueH

A course of free lectures on some Of the principal doctrines of the Catholic Church will be delivered in St. Peters Church by Rev Xavier Sutton. c. F., or Cincinnati, commencing Sunday night.
 A lecture will be given each night on some interesting doctrinal or devo- tional subject. The present course will be concluded Friday, october 20, at 1880 p. m.
 The object of these lectures is to pre- sent Catholic dogma in It's true light, to correct the false notions entertained by non-Catholics concerning Catholic teaching to show the Church of Rome as it Is in reality, to answer the charges made against 1t by it's enemies, and by others who are in good faith, but who are believed to be misguided by ignor ance or prejudice.
 His lectures are intended for non Catholics. Nothing will be said which will give offense. or hurt the sensibili- ties of any one. Catholic doctrine will be explained in a clear and concise manner. so as to enlighten. without wounding, the feelings of those who are not of that faith.
 A feature of the lectures will be the "Question Box" Into 1t any one may put a written statement of any doubt he may wish cleared up, or of any ex- planation of Catholic doctrine or prac- tice he may desire. Each question will receive courteous attention. and be as satisfactorily and fully answered as time will allow.
 Father Sutton is a distinguished mem Der of the Passionist Order. and partic- ularly well qualified for the work. as he has been engaged in preaching non Catholic missions In New York, New Hampshire, Vermont. Delaware, and other places for years. He Is an emi- nent pulpit orator, ripe scholar, and a refined gentleman. Father Sutton's reputation Is not confined to any sec ton of the United States. It extends to all the States in word and work, and a literary and philosophic treat Is prom ised to his audiences.
 A very cordial invitation is extended to all non-Catholics. They are request ed to take an active part In promoting religious discussion. Admission will be free to all.
 The follo wing is a list of subjects that will be treated next week: Sunday night. Why Protestants Are Not Catholics"
 Monday night, "Is PurgatoryT"
 Tuesday night, Can Man Forgive Sins?"
 wedne sday night. Quo VadisT
 Thursday night. 'Ts There a Hell?"
 Friday night, why am a Catholic ''
 Father Sutton will explain the nature of his mission at beth masses tomor- tcw. At the 1O:30 o'clock mass he will be formally introduced and address the congregation. The first lecture will be delivered at T:3O o'clock Sunday night with appropriate ceremonies. All lec- lures will be given at 7:30 a. m.

Beet Sugar Factories Trying to Save
 ThemHeIves.

Themselves.
 New York. Oct. 13.-To save many Michigan beet sugar factories from be- ing shut down. a protest against the present sugar beet tariff was made to- day before the United States general appraisers here. It was filed by the Marine Sugar Company of Marine City. Mich, and asked for a reduction of the tariff from it's present rate of 2S per cent advalorem to 10 per cent advalo- rem.
 The appraisers were told that under the bounty which Michigan formerly paid, more factories were built than the surrounding country could supply with sugar beets. Recently 1t was stated three such factories were dis mantled and the appraisers were ask ed to lower the duty so that the Amer ican factories might get beets from Canada The technical ground on which this protest was made declared that q sugar beet was not in reality a vegetable, but merely raw material for use in manufacturing sugar. To allow the board to consider this point the case was adjourned until Decem- Der 6.

Now that there is every likelihood Of

know that the county has coal in SUI

recently spent several weeks in the
gold fields OF southern Nevada and
also inspected the coal fields between
Tonopah and SodavilIe on the line OF
the Tonopah railroad.
DR.. Mccoy thinks that the Esmer-
aida coal fields will go far toward de-
veloping the country. where wood
fuel is so scarce. The supply, he says.
seems inexhaustible and the quality Of
the coal sufficiently high for smelling
purposes. The coal is seni-anthracite
and produces great heat There are
hundreds Of acres OF this land which
are underlaid with seven veins of coal
one OF which is very large.
