DIR. OSCAR MOORE
Illegal Practice of Medicine Is the
Charge Against Him.
Committee

DR.. Oscar Moore, a negro, is being
tried today before Judge Bell. He is
charged with illegal practice of medi-
cine. In his behalf there appeared as
witnesses several well known citizens
who declared that they have been bene-
fitted and made well by his treatment
He gives no medicines. He cures
through faith and inspiration.
The case is very interesting. As the
doctor does not give medicine, it is not
possible to convict him of the charge
under which he was arrested.
In attendance are number of physi-
clans who are watching the progress OF
the case with great interest.
DR.. Oscar Moore claims to be born
medium, possessing power to heal the
sick without medicine and by faith
alone. He is represented by E. B. Hern-
don Jr., and Hon. ]. M. Foster is fol
the State
HE WAS CONVICTED.
The foregoing was in type at 2:3o.
Before 5 o'clock Dr. Moore was con-
victed He was fined 5000 and costs
i'll two cases, and in default thirty days
on the road in each case. His conviction
was secured on the requirements of the
State statute providing an examination
before the State Board of Medical Ex-
arliners.
DR.. Moore claims an examination wa'
unnecessary, as he did not give medi
cine but obtained his power from divine
inspiration.

Foreign.

BY the first Of the week Europe had
heard that the final crisis in the dispute
between Austria and Servia had passed
without a resort TO the sword. Foreign
Minister Milanovitch. Of Servic. had as
sented TO the terms of Austria as nomi-
nally laid down by Great Britain. In
reality IL was a victory for the combi-
nation between Austria and Germany,
these nations having insisted from the
beginning that Servia had no rights con-
trary TO the annexation Of Bosnia and
Herzegovina by Austria. The Servian
government now was advised by all the
powers to so announce the absence OF
any such rights. and that the Servian
army should De demObilized at once. In
return, Austria is 10 make generous eco
nomic concessions to Servia. Some OF
the leading papers charge Russia with
having played them false and at St.
Petersburg the public was displeased
with Foreign Minister Isvolsky for the
surrender Of Slav interests.
After the great strike of French tele-
graph, telephone, and postal employees
had been called of last week. with every
evidence OF concession on the part Of the
government, the authorities were much
disturbed over the posting Of a mani

Blood and Skin

That the blood is a natural sntiseptic

There are certain cells in the blood

A great deal OF lore has accumulated
about these wandering scavengers OF the
blood. and they seem TO be Of great i'm
portance in many ways. and are known
10 medical men as phaEOcytes. When
ever the blood becomes very impure and
the number Of germs within il are large
the phagOcytes are vastly increased nu-
merically, a condition known as phago-
cytosis.
Thus a fierce struggle between the
germs and the phagocytes RACES. The
phagocytes usually win out and destroy
the germs, but it sometimes happens that
the phagocytes are completely over
whelmed by numbers. 50 rapid is the in
crease Of germs and blood impurities
