MERcURIAL TREATMENT.

WASHINGTON, May l0.-One
year has elapsed since Surgeon B. L.
Wright Of the navy treated the first
case OF tuberculosis at the Naval
Hospital at Las Animas, Colo, with
the mercury treatment-the surgeons
own discovery. During that time
statistics Of the hospital show that Of
those cases showing marked improve
ment 100 per cent. took mercury
treatment and none took routine
treatment solely. OF the fatal cases
81 per cent took mercurial treatment
and 68 per cent took the routine treat.
ment only. From this favorable
showing Surgeon Wright has recon-
mended that mercury be adopted as
the regular treatment for tubercui-
osis at Las Animas making it com
pulsory at the discretion Of the hospi
tai staff. OF the 127 patients at the
hospital at present, % are voluntarily
taking the mercurial treatment.

detection is great and such opera

/ this case. The offender, Coble, came
to Oakland, Cal, from Vancouver, B.

ing money from young men who
would be attracted by an offer Of a
good position and a trip to Alaska.
His plans were rather carefully laid.
/ He hired an Office at Oakland, forged
letters OF authorization in Director

steamship berths to Alaska to lend
color to the scheme. Thirty men an

one Of the thirty was an astute mem

Coble was all ready to receive the
deposits when the Oakland authorities
interfered, They had telegraphed to
the .ofice Of the Survey in San Fran

ton received, Mr.. Coble was trans.
ferred to the city jail. where he IS at
present awaiting the action Of the
Federal grand jury and is facing a
probable sentence Of $1,000 fine or
three years imprisonment or both.
His arrest was more timely, as it APP
peared that on the following day he
would have collected the money and
departed for Mexico.

Department Reports A Human Sac
rifce Made In Moro Province.

WASHINGTON, May l0,--The
Bureau Of Insular Affairs has made
public a special report Of an investi'
CATION into a human sacrifice offered
up BY the tribe OF the Bagobos in the
Davao district Of Moro province IN
the Philippines, The Datto Of the
tribe as we'll as two men and two
women was sentenced to life impris'
onment for the crime but they were
paroled upon the solemn pledge Of
the entire tribe never to repeat such
a sacrifice, The indirect cause of the
sacrifice was years of drought and
misfortune for the tribe. But its
immediate reason, as set forth in the
report was the death Of the husbands
of two women OF the tribe-the same
who were later sentenced to impris-
onment-and the facts that the wild
ows could find no successors. It
was to satisfy the spirits of their de-
parted ones that the sacrifice was
deemed necessary, A deaf and half,
blind crippled slave who had been a
wedding gift-was picked out for
the sacrifice and after many weird
tribal ceremonies was killed by
lance welded by both women.

the report prescribes the best deaths
far the insects. 1t gives the formula
for poison that win kill the flies and
not endanger life. A dram Of biehro-
mate Of potash dissolved in two
ounces Of water and sweetened, is
the cheap effective method Of en-
couraging the flies to kill themselves.
There are other sanitary regulations

ways suggested: Screen your wind

Screen all food and especially milk.
