PNEUMONIA BABES ON ROOF.
Marvellous Results Of Cold Air Treat.
ment Of Infants at Hospital.

New York, Feb. 20.-All the "pneu-
monia babies" in the Presbyterian
hospital were back on the roof yester.
day. Twelve of them rested under
the blue sky from 10 to 4, Struggled up
in woollen garments which inclosed
them from toes to chin. Their faces
were exposed, and they took in deep
draughts of an atmosphere that was
from 60 to 65 degrees below the tenn
perature of their bodies-the most
radical departure ever attempted in
the treatment Of consolidation of the
lungs in infant or adult.
1T is the most successful method
ever tried" said one of the physicians
connected with the hospital, and the
credit for it belongs largely to Dr.
James and DR.. Northrop, the attending
physicians in the medical side.
mo medicines are used. The chill
dren are sustained with nourishing
foods and are given all the water they
can ,sorb. They are kept in the
open air for six hours day. The
twelve now under treatment are typ
ical cases Of double and single pneu-
monia. Seven are 'bottle-fed' tene-
ment babies, lacking in vitality. I'm
der ordinary circumstances the NOR
tality is between 35 and 40 per cent.
The open air treatment has reduced
this to less than per cent, which is
a little less than the mortality among
infants between the ages Of two and
seven where the environment Is most
favorable.
"The accepted treatment of pneumo-
mia up to this time in child or adult
has been to keep the patient in a tenn
perature of Is to 80. Hot drinks and
a strict avoidance of draughts has
been deemed imperative. All this has
been changed These babies breathe
unheated air, even If the mercury Is
down to zero. They drink as much
cold water as their little stomachs will
contain. No hot drinks are given.
The results have been marvellous"
On the hospital roof yesterday was
Mandy" a pickaninny. who a week
ago appeared to be dying. Both lungs
were consolidated, the temperature of
the body had risen to 100 and respira-
ton had gone up to 40 or AZ minute.
Four days in the roof brought MAN
dy" around to the point where the
breathing was nearly normal.

The Cherry Sisters Caught In Folding
Bed In Dubuque Hotel.


Bed In Dubuque Hotel.
Dubuque, Feb. 20.-An accident
that might have had fatal results, oc-
cured at the Merchants hotel about
midnight Thursday night to Misses Ad-
die and Effle Cherry. When these wo-
men arrived in Dubuque for their
weeks engagement at the Bijou thea
ter their room which they had wired
for in advance, had not been vacated
by Its last tenant, who informed the
management he did not contemplate
moving until about the middle of the
week. To conciliate the Misses Cher
~ they were accommodated with a
very pretty little side parlor with a
folding bed. Despite the well known
tendencies Of folding beds to close up,
nothing startling occurred until Thurs
day night. The women had returned
to the hotel that night after their ap-
pearance at the Bijou and retired i'm
mediately. About midnight the night
clerk thought he heard muffied
Screams from the direction of their
room but thought he must be mistak-
en- and passed it off without another
thought. Some little time later he
again thought he heard screams from
the same direction and stopped to lis
ten. Again he heard them and In a
flash remembered that there was a
folding bed In that room. All the hor-
rible tales of folding bed accidents
rushed through his mind as he dashed
madly to the room occupied by the sis
tiers, pausing only long enough to sum-
mon physician by phone.
Upon reaching the room and flash
ing on the lights he found that his
fears were realized for there at one
end of the room, was closed folding
bed from which smothered sounds of
women's voices came.
He hurriedly seized the end of the
bed and after much effort lowered 1t
to the floor, fastening the little catch
which held it down and started for the
office for assistance. On the way
down he met the doctor whom he had
summoned and together they returned
to the room. Miss Effie, the elder, of
the sisters, was in condition border.
