all over the deck, and when the boat 5

hands were tipsy. Then a second boat
was sent. The buckets of grog had
been refilled and were waiting for
them. They came back with the grog
inside of them. Next, a mixed boat
crew was dispatched, made up partly
of marines. These did better than the
other two boat crews. Although no
slaves were found aboard the vessel,
she was seized and sent back to Amer

PARESIS, GERM
DISEASE THAT
CAN Be CURED
DR.. John D. O'Brien, Reiterating
Truth of Claim, Says He Has
Demonstrated Success.

MASSILLON, O., May 19.-In the
laboratory of the Massillon State Hos
pital, DIR. John d. O'Brien today re-
iterated a statement he made to the
American Medico-Psychological Asso-
citation convention in Cincinnati, that
he had discovered the germ of paresis,
and hat the disease is durable. He
summed up the result Of his expert
ments in these two declarations: Pa
esis undoubtedly is a germ disease; the
germ has been discovered, and, while
in the experimental stage, sufficient
tests have been made to show that pa
resis is durable, and that he has speci-
hc cases to point to as definite results.
II know said Or. O'Brien, that it
is a bold statement to make that the
germ of paresis has been discovered.
People may doubt it. But we have
cured patients and are helping many
now and expect to go forward with the
work"
