Sufferers from tuberculosis who seek relief in the climate of the Southwest have difficult problems of their own to face and at the same time they pre-. sent a serious problem to the people of the Southwestern States and terri. tories. In a paper which was read by Surgeon P. M. Darlington of the public health and marine hospital service of the United States at the International Congress on Tubercu. losts at Washington, 1t was shown that many of the refugees were not able to pay for care and treatment Ten per cent of the consumptives who go to Deming, N. NJ. are indigent and 5 per cent become public charges; 50 per cent of those at Las Vegas are chased as indigent, and though there are ample accommodations for them, 1t is said that their care Is a heavy burden on the town. At Fl Paso, Tex, the number of consumptive visitors is 1.500, more than 500 have insufficient means, 250 receive partial support and 150 are wholly destitute" Sixty per cent of the requests for assistance come from consumptives, three-fourths of whom are indigent. These are giv. en as typical instances, and naturally people who are ready enough to wei. come tourists with money to spend are far from satisfied with the condi. tions. Lodging-house keepers hang out the sign, No consumptives talk. en," and there has developed very decided phthisisphobia. Of necessity special institutions have been estab lished for the care of tuberculosis pa. tients, and the situation indicates the desirability of greater provision for them in other parts of the country Dr. Darlington expresses the opinion that while the disease is no respecter of persons, attacking the rich and the poor alike, nevertheless majority of the sufferers are "of moderate or very needy financial circumstances" They are poorly fitted for long and ex. pensive journeys and the trials that beset them among strange people in strange land. The wisdom of the action that has just been taken in Chicago Is thus made manifest. San. atoria should be erected throughout the North, and something of value might be learned from the expert. ments that have been made in the Southwest. Dr. Darlington, who has charge of the Fort Stanton Sana torium, advocates the use of the tent house for various reasons. He de. clares that though 1t has been object ed that 1t would afford insufficient protection in cold attitudes, they have had temperatures as low as 15 degrees below zero at Fort Stanton, and at, no time have the occupants of tents or tent houses felt any discomfort from the weather. He deals with the question of cost at some length, and says that a sanatorium for fifty pa tients with all necessary service build. ings can be constructed at a cost of about $750 bed, and that upon in- creasing its capacity to one hundred or one hundred and fifty the cost would be reduced to $500 or less.

NAN PlNCHED BY LIGHTNING
Maryiander Victim Ct Que-r Accident
While Seated on a Chair
During a Storm.

Rising Sun, Md.-To be pinched by
lightning where a man frequently
strikes a match was an occurrence
that William Conner of Greenhurst,
this county, does not care to have re-
peated. He was sitting on a chair,
dining with the family of James Ar
mour, during a storm, when lightning
struck the house. The seat of the
chair split and closed again, catching
Conner by the flesh. The chair had to
be broken before he could be released.
Everyone at the table felt the shock
and the house was considerably dam
aged.
Near the bridge to Harry England's
creamery, lightning struck a telephone
pole, flashed across a road to a pillow
point that lay inside a fence and
knocked it down the field for a dis
lance of 30 feet. making a furrow as
it went.

Boston Committee Adopts Unique
Plan for Reduction of Mortality
Among Infants.

BostOn.-The Boston committee on
hygiene will offer gold and silver med
ais to mothers who bring them babies
which conform to the standards of the
board of health. Mothers who have
the healthiest babies will receive
a gold medal. Those whose babies
are healthy, but not in the gold medal
class, will receive silver medals. Then,
too, there is to be some form of rec
Ognition for the mothers who start
out with a sickly baby and bring it
to a high degree of health.
"This scheme is a direct result of
the Huddersfeld plan for the proven
ton of infant mortality, although a

At the same time mothers and pros
