Jefferson and the sta.

This little story OF Joseph Jefferson is
said to be new: In the staging Of one of
his earlier plays a friend accompanied him
to rehearsal, at which a lively disagree
ment arose between two of the actresses
as to the possession OF the center of the
stage during a certain scene. While the
manager poured oil on the troubled waters.
Mr.. Jefferson sat calmly swinging his feet
from the rail OF an adjoining box. The
friend could stand 1t no longer. Good
Lord Jefferson" he CRIED in an excited
aside, this will ruin your play! why don't
you Interfere? You could settle matters
II you only would!" Mr.. Jefferson shook
his head with a gravity that completely
yelled the twinkle in his eye. mo, George, /"
he replied soberly; ''the Lord made only

serve me as l want to be served and you
can't look after your wife as you ought
to IL you serve me properly. Come In later
and let me know what you are going to

that he had determined to wed. His ser

Handy Man In an Emergency.

Colonel A. A. Pope. who became cele-
brated years ago as a bicycle manufac-
turer and Of late has become a builder of
automobiles, was in San Francisco during
the earthquake period. Driven from his
hotel, he sought other quarters. and ind-
ing an auto standing in the street asked
Its lone occupant to drive him to another
hotel. Machines busted" was the chauf-
feur's laconic remark "Oh, / know all

COLD AIR AND PNEUMONIA
New York Physicinn Treats Disease
Successfully by Pressing

Treating consumption with cold air has
been proved OF great benefit, but the use
of exposure to cure pneumonia, itself due
to cold, seems absurd. This very treatment,
however, has proved not only efficacious,
but infallible, so far as II has been tried
by Dr. Thomas S. Dunn at the Fordham
hospital, New York City. Instead of hous-
ing the patients in a closed room with
temperature Of 80 degrees as has been
heretofore uniformly the practice, DIR.
Dunn has kept thirty pneumonia patients
in an open tent since November l, and
every one has recovered where the trouble
was not complicated with other diseases
The revolutionary method has created a
sensation among physicians. ..t -..
DR.. Dunn, to whom the most credit IL
due for undertaking the risks of the new
treatment has made a speciality of pneu-
monia ever since attaining his medical de-
gree. For several years, in cases where
his patients were willing TO undertake
these risks, DIR. Dunn has treated them
by the outdoor method. and he says that
he has not lost one case of pneumonia
without complication thus treated. He. has
lost cases where the patients refused to
have the windows opened in their sick
rooms. One Of the most remarkable cases
WHICH LIZ L1uHu HdS WOh against booSh
was that Of a prominent man OF Ford
ham who was stricken with pleurisy and
pneumonia
1t seemed that nothing could save his life
when DR.. Dunn was called in. This was
just two years ago and the mercury was
hanging around the zero mark. DIR. Dunn
asked the family II they were willing to
risk his methods. The family agreed and
every window In the sick room was opened
wide. The temperature went down to
about 10 degrees In two days the man
was out Of danger and his convalescence
was shorter than that following a slight
attack Of pleurisy. Another time the same
winter DR.. Dunn had a case OF pneumonia
and there was another case In the neigh
borhood being treated by one of the ia
nous specialists. The latter used the old
bottled-up methods. His patient died, while
while DR.. Dunns is we'll and strong today.
DR.. Dunn was appointed last October as
visiting physician for Fordham hospital.
On his first visit he found thirteen pneu-
monia cases, all more or less serious. In

surgeon of the success of his treatment.

A wainscoting. FIVE feet high, was built up
from the ground, rising above the cots,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-After a month
of hard work, Assistant Secretary oliver of
the War department, concluded that he
had finally made satisfactory adjustment
Of the many difficulties in apportionins the
appropriation of 100000 for pay for the
militia at the maneuvers in different camps
throughout the country, but 1t appears that
all Is not satisfactory. These funds had
to be apportioned to the quartermaster's
department. the subsistence department
and the pay department of the army for
the purpose Of quartering, feeding and
paying the state soldiers. Reports were
obtained from different state governors as
to the number Of troops that would be sent
to the encampment. the distance they
would travel, ETC., and the apportionment
was made on the basis OF the reports re-
ceiyed

Too Many Soldiers.

However, in some cases more state troops
than had been given in the schedules were
sent into the camps and more expense was
thus attached. This caused a deficiency
in the allotment of funds especially in
the matter OF pay for the state troops.
The pay department Of the army decided
to pay the troops as long as the funds
lasted. those who came last going unpaid.
It has been suggested that another ad-
1ustment may be made after the camps
have finished their work, which is that
some camps may not use all the money
allotted to them and the funds can be
used to make up the deficit elsewhere. No
attempt to make an adjustment at this
time will be made. as nothing definite Is
known as to the number of state troops
which will be at the different camps.
1t is possible that congress win be asked
to make an appropriation to cover the de-
felt and the state troops paid next winter.
