AMERICAN SCIENTISTS
N. Y. Commissioner of Immi-
grafton Says Foreigners Are
Usually Free from Disease.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-Pronounced
opposition to the theory advanced by
DR.. Robert Koch, the eminent German
scientist, who minimizes the danger of
human infection from bovine tubercu-
iosis, and who declares that the tuber7
Gle bacilli of bovine tuberculosis are
different from those of human tubercu-
losis, again developed itself at today'S
session of Nthe International Congress
on tuberculosis.
The controversy occurred in the Sec
ton on 1.-The prevalence and economics
on tuberculosis of animals" and the
German scientists theories were COM
batted by DR.. Otto G. Noack, of Read
ing, Pa; D. Arthur Hughes, of Cornell
University; C. j.. Marshall, of Phila
delphia; H.. Reno Reynolds, of the Uni
versity of Minnesota, and yeranus A.
Moore, of Ithaca, N. Y.
1.-THE uniformity of the tubercle bacil-
lus is recognized everywhere today
said DR.. Noack, and even the Prus-
sian government refutes Koch's
theory"
DR.. Hughes declared hat in America
there is a general disagreement with
the views of Koch. He emphasized
the Importance of coordination in vet
Urinary legislation in the individual
States against animal tuberculosis
Robert Watchorn, commissioner of
immigration of the Port of New York,
read an interesting paper on 1.-THE Re

Thousands of Craft Escort Bat
tleships in Bay and Guns
Boom Welcome.

MANILA, Oct. with the brilliant
tropical sunlight pouring down on their
polished guns and cleaning paint the
Atlantic battleship fleet was escorted
up Manila bay by cheering thousands
on excursion boats and launches today.
The fleet steamed up the centre OF
the bay welcomed by a din of whistles,
cheers and every other noise-maklng
device that could be found.
The ships presented a magnificent
appearance as they moved slowly along.
and the sight of the long line evoked
the widest enthusiasm and admiration
OF thousands hat crowded every point
of vantage. AS the Connecticut led the
line past C~orregidor, the garrison there
fired the admiraPs salute. The passage
of the channel was made in single col
umn, but as soon as the last ship in
the long line was safely through sig
nails were hoisted for the double column
formation, and in this manner the ships
steamed up the bay two abreast.
General Smith witnessed
the arrival of the fleet from his launch,
where he entertained a large party of

WHEN He
SHOT DOWN son,
THEN KILLED SELF
Cliffside Man Thought Children
We're Anxious for Him
to Die.
Especial to the Evening start

HACKENSACK, Oct. 2.-The delusion
that his son and daughter-in-law were
waiting for him to die, in the expecta-
ton that they would inherit his fortune,
is now believed to have beer the mo-
tive of John B~urkhardt, of Cliffside,
who shot and fatally injured his son
Richard shot at Richards wife, and,
missing her. drank poison and leaped
from a high window of his home to the
Jagged rocks below.
Young Burkhardt was taken in q
critical condition to the North Hud-
son Hospital. His bride. a former
Germantown girl, fled to the home of
Mrs. Fred Schmalz, a neighbor, fearing
that other relatives might make trouble
for her. The bullet has not yet been
located in young Burkhardt and the
X-ray will be used.
Residents of Cliffside declared to-
day that the aged master mechanic
was kindly treated by his son and
daughter-in-law. but that he had
spoken of their waiting for his death
in bitter terms. His delusion was
heightened. it is said, by talebearers,
who came to him with untruthful
stories of alleged statements made by
his son.

as the star witness for the defense.
Miss Kane" she said, drank pretty
heavily at times. Sometimes she had
bottled beer and then again got beer
by the pint.
ION the day she was hurt she was
drinking. If any man came into her
house who Miss Kane thought was
connected with the trolley company she
would get into bed
The girl admitted that Miss Kane
had her arrested once. She went into
details about Miss Kane's high kick
ing, saying that Miss Kane tried to
kick her hand but fell and soon after
her foot started to swell.

Too early killing of the breeding
sows is one of the reasons why pork
growing is not more profitable Cen
orally SOW does her best service
with her second litter and from then
on until she is six years old. Recent
experiments at the Iowa State Col
lege show that two-year-old sows pro-
duce on an average twenty-five per
cent. larger filters, farrow heavier
pigs at birth and grow their pigs
much more rapidly than do one-year-
old sows. This being true, why do
our farmers persist in keeping young
sows for breeding purposes? The
mature ones are always the best

Freddy's Lucky Day.

Freddy was little boy nine years
old. He was little superstitious and
he believed that Friday was an un-
lucky day for him.
One Friday in July his mother asked
him to go to the store for her.
4 know will lose the money or be
cheated" he said as he started.
He arrived at the store in safety
as far as his money was concerned,
for he was nearly run over, which
gave him fright.
He told the man what he wanted,
and the man gave him some crackers
and told him to eat them on his way
home.
When he had walked one block he
saw lady. drop her pocketbook. Run.
ming forward he picked it up and
gave it to her.
Thank you very much!' she said,
and opening her purse she gave him
a dollar
When he reached his home he said:
Mother, l am going to call Friday
my lucky day, and am not going to
be superstitious any more. Samuel
