BURGLAR PLAYED DETECTIVE

across the street. Marsden went into a
telephone booth. Benfer opened the
door.
What do you mean2" demanded
Marsden.
Il didn't notice that you were in the
booth, " said Benfer, alphabetically. I
was in here while ago, and, having
lost bunch of keys, came back to see
if I hadn't dropped them here"
II don't like your looks" said the
burglar, sternly.
Il am a policeman of the West One
Hundred and Fifty second street station.
You come with me-
All right" assented the detective,
and he walked up Lenox avenue with
Marsden.
After they had gone two or three
blocks, the burglar said:
Now, | know you are crook. So

You stand right here. Don't move

TUBERCULOSIS NOTES.

Letters and mail-bags are frequen
carriers of tuberculosis. According tc
testimony recently given before the
Postal Commissioner of the British EN-
pire, during the last 90 years, so pei
cent of the deaths among letter sorters
had been due to consumption, contract
ed by the men after they had entered
the service.
For 1 900 active troops in the armies
of the great world powers, the following
figures show the percentage of cases of
pulmonary tuberculosis: United States,
4.72; Great Britain and colonies, "a;
France, 5.3; Germany, Is; Austria,
10; and Russia, OF. The percentage
in the general population is much larger.
Improper breathing is frequent
cause of consumption. A large majority
of the people are too lazy or too ignorant
to breathe deep, and hence the lungs are
developed only to part of their capacity
and thus afford fertile field for the
growth of the tuberculosis germ.
The death rate from tuberculosis
among the Chinese residents of the
United States is 65S.5, and among the
Japanese 299 per 100,0 living, while
among the white population of the
country the rate is 173.
National tuberculosis Associa-
tons have recently been formed in Rus
STA and Greece. Similar organizations
are now in existence in the United
States, England, Germany, Sweden,
Switzerland, Hungary, Italy and France,

Natives May Share
Rule in India
New Constitution Giving Them Voice
in Legislation Goes Into
Effect.

SIMLA, British East India, Nov. 15EThe
plan for the reform of the British admin
istration OF India which was outlined by
LORD Morley, secretary of state for India,
in the House OF Lords last December,
and which is designed to give India an
embryo constitution admitting the natives
TO an important share in the legislation Of
the country. came into effect today.
Thus begins a new and striking epoch
in the history of British rule in India. For
more than three years the imperial govern
ment and the Indian administrator have
been wrestling with the details of the
plan recently adopted.
Under the program all religious and spe-
interests may elect representatives to
the viceroy's and provincial councils, but
In view OF recent anarchistic outbreaks a
safeguard is provided in a qualification
which empowers the imperial and provincial
governments to declare ineligible those
persons whose election is considered con-
trary to public interests.
The viceroy's council in the future will
have $40 members. instead OF 1876, as for
meTly, OF which 1856 will be elected, as
against 80 elseted heretofore. The functions
OF the council Will be considerably enlarged
and it will take active part in the making
Of the budget and all legislation. The new
council will assemble in January.
