there are several large tables which

the word sideboard was used long be-
fore his day. it is probable that the
early English sideboards were merely
tables.

REPORT OF IRONYILLE SAKATORIUM.

The following report of the Vir-
ginia Sanatorium for Consumptives
for the first sixty days of It's work
under the SUPPLEMENTARY of DR..
j. +. Harris, formerly of Berry
vile. shows excellent progress:
This Institution is located at Iron
vile, Bedford County, Virginia. on
the main line of the Norfolk &
Western Railway, twelve miles
East of Roanoke. 1t is operated
under an eleemosynary charter
granted by the State Corporation
Commission in April. 1905. This
being benevolent Institution. its
aim and purpose is to try and re-
store to health those cases who are
worthy, that they may be able to
provide for those dependent upon
them for support and at the same
time make them useful citizens so
far as possible. The Institution
opened its doors for the reception
of patient, February 10, 1907, and
since that time eighteen patients
have been received into the Institu-
ton for treatment. With one excep-
ton the improvements have far
exceeded the expectation of the
management, while some of the
improvements have not been
rapid yet they have been steady
from day to day. The highest
number of pounds gained by a
single patient in the sixty DAYS,
ending April 10th, has been 1917
pounds, the next highest has been
l2k pounds, the lowest four
pounds, the average for all of the
patients has been five pounds.
The gain in weight, being one of
the first indications of the patients
improvements, serves TO encourage
us all the more in our efforts. The
capacity of the Institution is thirty.
at this time. The method of treat
ment carried out is known as The
Open Air Treatment, which con-
sists of fresh air, forced feeding to
the highest point of assimilation.
regulation of rest and eXercise along
the lines recommended by the
National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis.
1t is a lamentable fact, proved by
the statistics, that Virginia has to-
day between eighteen and twenty
thousand cases of tuberculosis with
IN Its borders. With the single ex-
ception of this Institution, there is
not an Institution in the State that
will receive tuberculer patients for
treatment. The average number of
deaths from consumption through
out the State in 1906 was one
out of every seven or eight. In
1906 consumption alone carried off
more people than diptheria, small
pox and scarlet fever all combined.
This disease is preventable, durable
and communicable, not inherited,
and the Institution and all connect
ed with it solicit the cooperation
of the public generally in helping
us reduce the mortality in our own
State for self protection.

Baseball Notes.

Galena was unable to reach Fen
nimore Saturday on account Of a
wash out and Lancaster was sub
stituted in the game with the Pipe
stone Indians. Newman and the
Hupplers had gone to their homes
so the home team was changed
around for the occasion. Foster
played third and Boyer short in fine
style while Carly BAIL and Gleg-
horn of Highland played first and
behind the bat. Although Lancas
ter only got two hits off Mallory,
the Indian spit ball artist, they let
up to the sixth by score of to @.
Foster scored in the third, reaching
first on short stops error going to
second on Boy er's sacrifice hit and
scoring when Pehnock hit to second
baseman who made an error. In
the sixth three hits and some slow
fielding coupled with a ball let in
two runs for the Red Skins. That
was all there was to the game until
the last of the ninth when with two
men on bases Mallory struck out
two ending the game.
Piddington was in fine form,
striking out IA dusky ones. The
Indians declare him the hardest
pitcher they have tackled in Ga
games.
The invincible PipestOne Reser-
nationwide Indians have lost but z
games out of As played this season
narrowly missed another defeat in
presence of a record breaking crowd
yesterday afternoon on the home
grounds. Score was to 0 in favor
of the copper skinned visitors. 1t
was the best game of ball Witnessed
IN Lancaster for several years and
the Indians say they never had a
harder fight on their hands.

A Peculiar Accident

A rather strange accident occurred
last Tuesday evening on the Miss
issippi that resulted in the death by
drowning of Clyde Bright, oldest son
of Mr.. and Mrs. John Bright. Mr..
Bright, who was a telegraph operat-
or was at home injoying vacation
He and two companions had gone
up the river in a gasoline launch to
light a government light, and he
dropped the lit match In the bottom
of the boat near the oil and gasoline
cans. In second. the whole boat
was a mass of flames as the match
had fired some oil or gasoline in the
bottom of the boat. The young men
fearing an explosion jumped into
the water and young Bright being
unable to handle himself we'll
in the water, soon sank to a
watery grave. The other boys
managed after hard struggle to
get out of the water.
The body was recovered a short
time after, near where it had gone
down.

Obituary-Damm.

Ernest L. Damn passed away at
his home in. South Lancaster shortly
before midnight on Aug. IL, 1902,
aged SO years months and "a days;
death resulting from heart trouble
and dropsy caused by severe
attack of pneumonia last March.
Deceased was a native OF SaXony
Germany, coming to America in
1847 when but nine years of age,
and locating at Chicago where he
clerked in bakery establishment
for several wears. In company with
Gustav Guentzel he came west in
1857 and entered the harness bust
ness at Boscobel. Three years later
Mr.. Damn bought the farm four
miles south of this city where he
lived until his death.
He was married to Miss Caroline
Kemper Nov. 6. 1860, and together
they took up the duties of life,
sharing its burdens and joys for
nearly half century. They were
blessed with a family of seven chill
dren but in May 1892 death claimed
one daughter, Emma, and again in
Sept. 1899, tookthe eldest son George
and wife at one swift blow. Three
little boys were left orphans and in
their declining years Mr.. and Mrs.
Damn again took up the cares OF
rearing family.
Two daughters and three sons
remain, Mrs. Emelia Carthew OF
Spokane, Washington, Mrs. Carrie
Guentzel of BoscObel and Henry,

only two sisters, Mrs. John BOernel

of Chicago reached mature years
During his childhood his hearing
was affected by an attack of scarlet
fever which resulted in nearly tota
deaf4ess as he advanced in years
Being thus deprived of free com
municatiOn with his friends was {
source of keen regret to one pos
sessed of a social interest in man
kind. He was a great reader anC
although his mind was enclosed al
it were by the prison walls Of
silence he was nevertheless broad
minded and generous in his views
possessing deep interest in th'
general affairs of the world. Strong
IN his convictions he supported
what he considered the right prin
ciple regardless of party feeling.
When boy Mr.. Damn was con
firmed in the German Evangelical
church and in his quiet unassuming
manner sought to live in the paths
of truth and uprightness.
He bore his last illness with the
same courage and fortitude which
marred his entire life, his chief con
Germ being that he might not be
come helpless rendering him care
to loved ones.
