pitals or under supervision at home

malady has spread, with the result
that the total has increased to fifty.
There is reason to believe. how
ever that the disease is more wide
spread than is generally known, and
that Ill some instances the illness is
being treated as something different
from what it actually is
Children are the chief sufferers.
Many of those affected have died
within twenty-four to forty-eight
hours after the malady has been de-
tected, and i'll some instances in
which the patients have recovered
paralysis has supcrvcned.
The authorities arc fully alive to
the danger of the disease, and every
precaution is being taken to cope
with it. ..
Interviewed on the subject, DR..
Chalmers, the medical officer of
health for Glasgow, said that last
year, from the beginning of June,
when the corporation scheduled this
disease as notfablc, 200 cases had
been reported, but many of these were
not spotted fever at all. .
The difficulty at present was, he
said 70 IaE.,ta1,, Al
istcnce of this very dangerous disease.
He thus described the nature of the
disease
"Cerebro-spinal meningitis, or spot
ted fever, has only been known since
1905, when a small outbreak occurred
at Geneva. Epidemics occur more
frequently on the continent and i'll
the United States than in this coun-
try. A thousand deaths occurred
from this cause in New York City
during 1894 but no such mortality
has been met with here.
The disease is caused BY a mi
crobe which was discovered in 1887,
and is called the meningococcus. How
this microbe enters the body is not
known, vut the suspicion is that it
gets up the nose and attacks the thin
plate of bone between the front OF the
brain and the top of the nose. 1t
produces an inflammation at the base
of the brain and in the coats of the
spinal marrow.
THE disease begins quite suddenly
with a, shivering attack and severe
headache. Any light is painful, and
the slightest noise is agony to the
sufferer. The. muscles at the back Of

of only twenty-five miles-a distance
less than from Philadelphia to Trenton
all substances are molten. the tenn
perature being something like 10000 de-
grees, II seems absurd that we should
indulge anxiety about an available
heat supply for the future. As will
presently be shown there are places
where the shell of the globe, is very
much thinner. and where the hot core
is so near the surface that conduits
reaching downward might easily be
constructed by human ingenuity.
"Of course, it would not be practi-
cable to bore down into a region of
molten rocks, but pipes could be sunk
sufficient distance to reach strata
of as high degree of heat as might
be desired. Prof William Hallock, of
Columbia University. says that the put
ting down of such pipe would not
cost more than $4,000 per mile; and he
offers the suggestion that, merely for
experimental purposes, it would be
worth while to spend $4,000 in sinking
two pipes to depth of twelve thous-
and feet. connection having been
established, between the lower ends of
the pipe an inexhaustible supply of

PUBLIC TREE PLANTING.
J. Y. Culver Urges New York Statf Government to Aoorn Hichy.ays

X strong plea for the planting of trees along tue roads in which the state of New York has an interest was made recently by Jonathan '. Culver civil engineer and landscape architeCt says tue New York Tribune He said that he had tried to induce the state ad ministration to do this. but without apparent success. He called attention to tbe fact that throughout Great Britain, France, Germany and to q lesser degree, in other continental coun- tries the planting and maintenance of trees on the public roads have been Il long established policy. Many con- munities ill the United States, he said. have recognized the value and utility of such practice.
 "1t would be lamentable indeed" MT. Culver said, "were 1t found that tree 1 planting on our roads bad been omit ted for quasi economical reasons. The cost of providing and planting can add very little to the cost per linea] 1 foot of the road Soil. for Instance, an 7 essential thing for the tree pits, in
