INTEREST OF NEGROES
 IN TUBERCULOSIS ASKED

Subsequently to request by E. c. Routzshan. Director of the American Tuberculosis Exhibition now being made in Montgomery, Mayor Teague has written to pastors of churches for negroes in Montgomery asking that they arouse as much interest Of the race as possible In the exhibition and the benefits 1t may accomplish. On agreement between the Mayor and the officers of the exhibition April 2s and May have been selected as days on which the exhibition which is a free display, will be made as attractive as possible to negroes
 In letters which Mayor Teague has sent to the pastors of the churches for negroes he stresses the fact that tu- bereulosis Is particularly virulent in its attacks upon negroes. He cites for instance, the fact that during the year from October 1, 1906, to Septem- Der 30. 1907. eighty-seven deaths re. suited in the city from the disease, ana of them seventy-three were, negroes.
