whose mission was to relieve not on the

MY faith in the ultimate checking
of tuberculosis throughout the world IS
based upon my own remembrances of that
other scourge, yellow fever, and the
change that has been brought about
through the study of the disease. Fifty
years ago, and even until recent years,
yellow fever was a most dreaded visitor
in New Orleans. In one of the epidemics
of the disease 1 contracted the fever my

heroes. and too high praise cannot be
bestowed upon them for their services to

WAS IT A POLITICAL COUP,

Politics do make strange bedfel-
lows" and in the game Of politics
many cards are played by the pro-
fessional politician. of which the lay
man has little conception and less
appreciation
a case Of this kind came to light
recently, Of which there seems to
be but meager information, and OF
which no one seems willing to talk.
L. 7. Dulaney, promising young
lawyer of New Iberia, has virtually
walked into the State Democratic
Committee without even the formal
ity OF an election. He succeeds
Congressman X. +. Br0ussard. who
did not offer for reelection from
Iberia parish, but who will enter the
contest for membership ct the COM
mittee as representative OF the dis
trict-at-large.
Mr.. Dulaney is identified with the
faction known as the anti-Burke. or
the Br0ussard faction, and 1t would
seem that the former faction was
sleeping upon its rights. as It
brought out no one to contest
Mr.. Dulaney In the primary OF Janu-

William H. Bowling, of Rockwell,

tie with burglars, but his worst expe.
rience came recently, says the
Hartford Conn correspondent of
the New York Herald. After he had
opened the Office he moved crate
and beheld in the corner a huge rat
tlesnake ready to spring. Bowling
jumped back but only to land in
ciose proximity to a bunch of ser.
pents in the opposite corner Then
he saw the reptiles crawling every
where, over boxes and bundles, and
one was entwined around a leg of
his desk.
He called assistance from the
street and the reptiles were driven
into barrels and bags.
Finally the arrival of a travelling
Snowman explained the presence of
the snakes. The box of 80 snakes
had been consigned to the Snowman
for exhibition at the Rockville fair.
Cardboard around the box having
been softened by rain, the captives
had made their way through. There
were several deadly poison snakes in
the lot.
