distance from Rayne in the country,
who had been sick some ten or fifteen
days of yellow jaundice, died yesterday
at $3.50 p. m. After holding a post

doctors yesterday pronounced it a
case of yellow fever. He was origin

Later reports are to the effect that
the dead man only lived three blocks
north of the depot and that another
case has developed just across the
street. The case at Lafayette is agin
thought to be yellow fever.

Superficial study of any subject, or
OF a report, or of instructions often
leads to erroneous conclusions, and
may result in defeating the real OBJ
ject sought.
The visitation of the dreaded yell
low fever this year, and the report of
physicians as to the causes of the dis
ease, its method of infection and other
facts not before known, has called out
comments and opinions that were it
not for the seriousness of the subject.
would be amusing. The smart Texas
fellow, who seems to think that he has
got the doctors in a corner by pro-
posing conundrum as to whether the
man or the mosquito had the yellow
fever first, simply tries to show that
the physicians said what they did not
say, or eve" intended to Say.
Be it understood: That yellow fe-
yer is not indigenous to this country,
that is, it does not originate here.
When found in this country it has
been brought here, 1t cannot origin
ate here: it cannot live here with all
our conditions of climate. A frost
always stops it: this we all know;
therefore. if it spreads from the first
case brought from somewhere. away
itmust spread by infection. That is
common. Nearly all diseases do that
whether they be indigenous or exotic.
Each disease seems to have its own
peculiar injecting agent, some by the
breath of the sufferer, some through
the eXcretiOns and some in other WAYS.
but each has its own method, and any
old method will not do for every dis
ease
Infection is usually an artificial pro-
cess and must always be in the case
OF exotic diseases. Science has dis
covered that the agent of infection of
yellow fever is certain species of
mosquito and the process is inoculat-
ion. No other injecting agent has
been found. People have not regard
ed Il mosquito bite as anything at all
to be feared, SO when the discovery, OF
a danger at home is announced. they
are lOath to believe it, and some have
lost their lives by trying to prove the
contrary. Now there are countries
where yellow fever is indigenous. that
is, it originates there, and in all those
countries the mosquito carries the in
lection, and spreads it, yet it is not
claimed that the mosquito originates
it The special spOr. or microbe, or
germ Of yellow fever is there ready to
develope when the proper conditions
of surroundings, or physical condi-
tiOns of the subject are right for its
development it manifests itself as
disease in the affected mot infected)
person. AS stated above. in this
country it is exotic, and is propogat-
ed only by Infection. and this infection
is done only by one agency, certain
we'll known species of mosquito. The
physicians have never given a theory
of the origin Of the disease, only that
of its propagation. JAMES ELLIS.

Because of the convenience of a fixed
place the Union is meeting with Mrs,
Calkins, and will continue to meet
there, until further notice.
Last Monday night the Union gave
an ice cream social in the warehouse
south of the old bank, which was as
successful, financially, as it could be,
for everything was sold. The net pro-
ceeds were 1922. The full moon, the
special interest in the eclipse, the alb
senCe of mosquitoes, (caused by a
dense smudge early in the EVENING",
the bevy of sweet girl walters, the sub
dued light of the japanese lanterns,
the kindly interest and patronage of
many friends outside the Union. all
combined to make the evening very
pleasant one. The patriotic table
decorations sent over with the com
pliments of the Cooper Drug Co.,
were much admired.

a copy of "Glimpses of Fifty Years, "
and further request was made for
enough copies Of our annual leaflets

and the score stood TO 0. but the

by each side in the sixth made a total
