instead has tried to develop its schools
instead of abandoning some of them.
Especially is this true of the normal
schools. In the legislature last win
ter the argument was made by the
friends of the normal schools that
Washington spent more than twice as
much as Oregon on its normals the
preceding year. Probably this fact

four men held him down while others

Murdaco tried to kill him self the

allowing the pores Of his skin to close

Record Of Yellow Fever.

Yellow fever has always been re-
garded as an American plague, its
earliest and greatest ravages being in
the West Indies and in American
ports. In 1904 and 1874, however. 1t
was very violent at Gibralta., and dur
ing the next quarter of century there
were number of virulent outbreaks
in various Spanish cities. Norfolk
and Portsmouth. Va. were -avaged in
1855; Wilmington. n. c.. in 1862, and
Savannah, Ga, in 1876. Between 18i7
and 1868 there were six periods of
scourgc in New Orleans, the mortality
in each case averaging about $500.
In 1S7S-79 Memphis was almost depop-
ulated. there being $50 deaths in
1878 and 4S5 in 1879, though the larg-
er part of the population had fed from
the city. There were fever ravages
during the same years in New Orleans
and other gulf and south Atlantic
ports, the total number of deaths
from the scourse in the United States
during that year being 14SO9.
