A USE FOR SPIDERS.
Keep Them In the House and You viii
Have No Reaches.


Have No Reaches.
cit is too bad so many people are
prejudiced against SPIDERS" said the
man who always finds out curious
things. IF they could stand it to
have spiders around, they would soon
get rid of cockroaches. In the spider
the cockroach has an enemy that pur-
sues him with more malevolence than
does the cleanly housewife. And not
only is this hatred more deep rooted; it
Is more deadly. All things considered,
the cockroach shows mighty little re-
spect for the human race. He knows
that, although he is small. he is chock
full of inventive genius, and he laugh:
ingly scorns the futile attempts of men
and women to circlnlvent and destroy
him
$50 long has he been battling for
life against paris green. fly paper. hot
water and wire cages that he has
learned to 3saCnter through green lanes
OF poison and wade rivers of glue
without SO much as soiling his toes.
and when it comes to the scalding bath
he swims blithely out and wriggleS his
whiskers in derision at his would lie
slayers. But he dares not treat the
spider with such disdain. In fact, he
doesn't have a chance. for the spider
outdoes even the cockroach in cunning
and nabs him without the least cere.
mOny.
"Still it would be hardly advisable
to recommend raising a crop of spiders
as a sure preventive Of cockroaches
for in most peoples minds the exter.
minator is more Objectionable than his
victim" -Cleveland Plain Dealer.

time to time he has played tennis on

taken into the inner circle of the presi-

Leaving the White House at o'clock
in carriage, Mr.. Winthrop and the
president were driven briskly up Sew

city. and the excursion began.
Plunging off into the woods of Rock
Creek park. the president led Mr.. Win
throp on such walk as only the presi

pathways. sliding down wet hillsides
holding on by branches and across
country for ten miles, the excursion
continued until Mr.. Winthrop was
gasping for breath and, with raindrops
dripping from his neatly trimmed van
dyke, was ready to drop.
Then, by way Of a fitting finish te
the contest, the president led the way
to Rock creek and plunged over the
bank into the stream waist deep, cross
ing to the other side. Here Mr. Win
throp hesitated, but with a last re
naming atom of strength and courage
he followed his chief and gained the
other side, where the president. laugh
ing, sent him home for dry clothes and
rest.

INTERNATIONAL
CONGRESS ON
TUBERCULOSIS
TO BE HELD IN WASHINGTON
CITY FROM SEPT q TO
OCT IL.

Widespread interest is being taken
in this country and abroad in the
international congress on tuberculosis
which is to be held in Washington
next September under the auspices of
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis The
gathering will be unique in several
respects. 1t will be the first congress
of the sort to be held in this coun-
try, and it will differ from the earlier
congresses in giving greater promi-
nence to the non-medical aspects of
the campaign against the white
plague. The outlook will cover the
anti-tuberculcsis movement as
whole, and emphasis will be laid upon
the humanitarian and social factors
of the problem as we'll as upon the
medical surgical and pathological as
poets of it. ~
"A central committee was appointed
for each state and for each OF the
countries abroad at the beginning of
the preparations for the congress. A
number Of these have organized and
have formulated definite plans for the
representation of their respective
states or countries in the congress
and in the exhibition that will be
held in connection with it. The &C.
tivity of the local committee has been
preceded in nearly every instance by
official action by the governor of the
state authorizing the participation of
the various departments of state gov
eminent in the undertaking. This
has been done by the governors of
twenty-nine states, and other eXecu-
tives have signified their intention
of taking up the matter at an early
date. The federal government is ar
ranging to take part also, seven of
the nine departments having express
ed desire to be represented.
Many Interested
Some idea of the extent of the in
Hterest shown in the United States in
the congress is to- be gained from the
fact that over six hundred persons, in
different sections of the country, are
serving on the states committees.
The members of the North Dakota
committee are-Dr. James Grassick,
Grand Forks; DR.. III. III. HeaIy, Grand
Forks; DR.. Victor II. Stickney Dick
inson. The central committee Of ar
rangements for the congress has in
vited the state committees to promote
the coordination and cooperation of
all the organizations of the state in
terested in the crusade against tu-
berculosis; to secure appropriations
for state and local exhibits and con-
tributions to the maintenance fund of
the congress; to secure members of
the congress-; to enlist the interest
and cooperation of state and local
officials; to secure state and NUM-
cipal exhibits for the congress to
make reports to the secretary gener-
al on the status Of the fight against
| tuberculosis in the state, etc; to vel
come the cooperation of the national
| federation of wonIen's clubs through

two outs, and a hit by Kaufman.
In the third Washington collected two
more runs on singles by Burke, Shaugh-
messy, and zannelli. The game was de-
layed twenty minutes in this inning on
account Of rain.

the third inning by making two runs on
singles by Harbush and Leonard and
n wild throw by Burke to catch MCGEE
mapping at third. In the fifth Brooklyn
made run on hits by Davis and Nc
Gee.

mott walked on being hit by a pitched
ball and scored on singles by Lynch and
Speers.
