EGGS CT THE sTEGoMYlA
Discussion as to Those of Infected Yellow
Fever Mosquitoes Great Work Done
by Convention.

Washington, Oct. 14.-The sec
ond international Sanitary con
vention of the American Republics
held its last session today and con
cluded its work by signing the
Spanish and English copies of the
Paris convention of December 3,
1908, which now with few modi-
fcations has been accepted by most
of the countries of this continent.
The rest of the time was taken
up by a discussion regarding the
yellow rever mosquito. DR.. Cult
eras of Cuba and several of the del
egates disputed the contention OF
two French doctors, Manchou and
Simon of the Pasteur Institute of
Paris, that the eggs of an infected
yellow fever mosquito were also
infected, but could only produce
vaccinating cases on the ground
that not enough experiment had
been made so far; that if the in
fected mosquito could produce
from FIVE to six hundred cases, by
this time most of the human race
would be immune and yellow fever
would have extinguished itself.
Considering that it is only few
years since the mosquito theory
has been generally accepted, the
amount of worl done by this con-
uention is very considerable and
it is expected by the delegates that
at the time of the next convention,
which will be held in the City of
Mexico in 1907, the chance of
another yellow fever epidemic,
such as the one in New Orleans
this year, will be impossible.

REFERRING to the call of Presi-
dent Blalack for a meeting of the
Brown sville Truck Growers asso-
citation, next Saturday, THE HER
AID would especially call attent on
to the fact that the subject of
freight rates for truck out of
Brow 1sville will be taken up and
thoroughly discussed This is a
question upon which hinges the
success or failure of truck ship
ments from this section. Every
truck grower IS interested in this
subject, and it is hoped all will
attend and take part in its discus
sion. THE HERALD believes the
railroad company will be disposed
TO make all concessions possible if
proper representations are made to
the management, recognizing the
necessities of the case. The Off
Gals have promised to treat our
truck shippers fairly in the matter
of rates, and it now up to the
shippers to make their wants
known. 1t is neither fair to the
shipper or railroad company to
stay at home, cuss the railroads
and everything else, and make no
effort to secure better conditions.
The way to get what you want is
TO go after it.

How the Bet Was Won.

Good morning" said Capt.
" to his friend, the Major, I
believe you have Lieut. -- at
mess. Now, don't take on any bets
with him this week
But why?" said the Major.
Never mind now; but you know
what a lucky chap he is in betting
he always wins. -
A few days after this, when din
ner was over and the officers were
chatting over their wine, the Lieu
tenant blurts out, I have been
told that Irishmen have a black
roof to their months. "
Now the Major was Irish, and
on very good terms with all pres
ent, who all declared that it was
absurd.
Well, have good reasons for
believing so, and 1 am ready to bet
the Major a sovereign that his
is black -
The Major forgetting his warn
ing, took the bet, and two officers,
on looking, declared that the Lieu
tenant had lost his bet.
Certainly" said the Major, and
the Lieutenant, holding the Major
by the nose, made a careful exam
nation, and then seemed satisfied
that he had lost, and paid his bet.
Next morning the Captain greet
ed the Major with thought you
were not going to take bet with
with Lieutenant"
ooh, but it was such an absurd
thing, and 1 won the bet, said he.
All" said the Captain, do
you know he bet me $50 he would
pull you by the nose before the
week was out, and he has done it
after all my warning"

A DISPATCH from the city of
Mexico says ancient pottery has
been found in the course of eXca-
vations at the base of the volcano
of Popocatepetl. The pottery is
neither of Toltec nor Aztec origin,
and probably antedates the arrival
of those raised in this country. 1t
IS believed that some of the vessels
recovered were used in the rites of
the fire worshsippers and was en-
ployed during the ancient eruption
of the volcano when an effort was
made to propitiate the god of fire.

Something to Talk About.

1t IS learned on good authority
that the Mexican Central Railroad
has given up all hope of reaching
the border between c. P. Diaz and
Matamoros. The Central has been
endeavoring to get to the Rio
Grande south of c. P. Diaz for
three years or more. A survey was
made three years ago.-San Anto-
MO Express.
Birds spoiled the bridge which
spans Eagle Creek, four miles
southwest of Hartford. Many OF
the timbers have been so honey
combed by woodpeckers and yell
lowhammers that the county COM
missioners have condemned the
bridge as unsafe.

CONFERENCE ON sANTo DOMINGO.
Several Plans Suggested to Tide Over
Matters.

Mr.. Dawson, United States minister at
Santo Domingo, has cabied the State De-
partment to the effect that the Dominican
government has had before it for considera-
ton several plans for the satisfaction of
the claims of foreigners and, to tide over the
hiatus caused by the failure of the Senate
TO act upon the Dominican treaty, the Do
minican government has about concluded
TO install foreign agents in the custom
houses to collect revenues, 40 per cent of
which are to be applied to the maintenance
of the government and the remaining %
per cent to be placed on deposit subject
to disbursement among the foreign cred
itors in the future after the Senate has had
an opportunity to again consider the treaty.
That proposition was the subject of 4
conference at the White House today be-
tween the President. Secretary Taft SEN
ator Lodge, Senator Spooner and Acting
Secretary Adee. but it was stated that 10
conclusion has yet been reached. 1t is not
quite clear from Minister Dawsons d's-
patch just what part he has played in
bringing about this agreement, but 1t Is
gathered that it has not yet been consum-
mated and it is certain that he has not
signed any formal undertaking binding his
government. 1t is probable that further i'll
forml ton will be required as to the details
OF the agreement before it is approved here.

HOME RULE IN PHILIPPINES.
The President Will Direct a General
Election in Two Years.

Secretary Taft today notified President
Roosevelt of an important epoch in the
affairs of the Philippine Islands. He stated
that the census of the islands has been
completed and published and. under the law
of July l. 1902, two years from that date
the President is required to direct the Phil
ippine commission to call general election
for the choice of delegates to a popular as
sembly.
All legislative power in the islands will
thereafter be vested in a Legislature con-
sisting of two houses, the Philippine COM
mission and the Philippine assembly.
The conditions upon which the election
Is to DE called is that complete peace shall
have continued in the territory of the
islands not occupied by Moros or other
op-Christian tribes. The popular election
is not to extend to the Moro tribes Two

WILL AWAIT THE TEXT.
No Immediate Action to Be Taken Re.
garding Castro's Refusal.

1t has been decided to await the recep-
ton of the exact text of President Castro's
refusal to accept Minister Bowen's offer of
arbitration before proceeding further with
the negotiations in that line. 1t is realized
that there may be fair difference of opfn-
lon as to whether or not the Venezuelan
response was couched In discourteous Ian
guage, and it may be that at this distance
from the seat of negotiations and after the
lapse of few days the words which ap-
peared to Mr.. Bowen to be insoient will
admit of a different construction here.
So the disposition is to move cIrcum-
spectely at least at this end, and uni ss
President Castro chooses to force an issue

lieyed some time will be consumed In

clerk of the Post Office Department. will
assume the additional duties of superin-
tendent of the post office building, vice r.
b. Merchant, who will confne his duties
to the office of dsbursing clerk
In providing for the change Congress
added $500 year to the salary of Mr.
Chance who will now receive So, 900 per
year. Mr. Merchant, who has been disburs-
ing officer of the Post Office Department
for more than ten years, was never paid
anything for his services as superintendent

after many attempts the change was finally
effected at the last session of Congress.
