TUBERCULOSIS CRUSADE.

Much has been done in recent
weeks to perfect the organization OF
those who are associated in an effort
to check and reduce the ravages OF
tuberculosis. The work in behalf oil
the victims of the disease and for the
promotion of preventative measures
has been rendered more systematic
and practical and productive OF re-
suits, says the Detroit Free Press. AL
most 700 patients have been the bene-
hciaries of specific ameliorative effort,
$50 of these patients being in strait
ened circumstances. The work is no
longer on an experimental basis and 1t
is planned to devote in June a day to
concerted action looking to the rails
ing of further funds on a plan similar
to that employed with a great lea OF
success in the June of last year. A
good account Of their stewardship can
be given by those to whom the utiliza-
ton Of the funds heretofore contrib
uted was ~intrusted, and the WORTH
ness of the work should prompt gen.
rou gifts of additional funds. No
a~meliorative work has greater appeal
for the public.

The m~alevolent spirit that inspired
the firing of the forest reserve near
Asheville, N. c., owned by George w.
Vanderbilt, with the result that the
flames swept over 10000 acres OF
young growth that would soon have
been worth S25O,000, is an exhibition OF
human nature at it's worst. The act
seems to have been done for mere
wantonness, for no possible good could
come to anyone through this destruc-
ton Of a noble forest-area, while the
damage is not limited to the monetary
value of the property burned. The &C.
currence adds to the sum total Of dis
aster due to reckless tree-killing, al
ready far too large, to say nothing of
the marring of the scenic beauty and
the injury to a region regarded as one
of the finest health resorts in the
country.

The government at Washington has
disavowed the acts of an American
teacher at Tabriz who was charged
with participating in revolutionary
demonstrations against the shah, thus
avoiding all possibility of complics-
lions with Persia. Even America has
its share of men of Unbalanced percep-
lions who cannot refrain from but
ting in" when they are in the neigh
borhood of a row in a foreign coun-
try. But fortunately the number is
not large. The average American rec
ognizes the advisability of keeping out
OF other peoples quarrels, and has the
faculty for approaching how much
trouble can often be made by taking
q contrary course

Eiohtlnu TubercujosIs.

Three large fraternal orders are at
present conducting sanatorla for their
tuberculous members. The Royal
League. the first order to take up this
form of work in the United States,
has a sanatorium at Black Mountain,
North Carolina. The Modern Wood
men have recently opened a sanator-
ium at Colorado Springs, and the
Knights of Pythias, one at the East
Las Vegas, New Mexico. The Royal
Arcanum and the Brotherhood OF
American Yeomen will consider prop
ositions at their coming grand coun-
ellis for the erection Of similar instis
tutions.

There have been numerous balloon
casualties, but few of the victims have
been women, although some of the
most daring ascensions have. been
made by members of the feminine sex.
France reports one of these exception
al instances. A balloon which as
cended from st. Cloud carrying two
men and a woman drifted toward the
sea, and, while efforts were made to
land on the beach, these proved inef-
fectual and the balloon vas carried
into the surf. Men put out in boats to
the rescue and succeeded in saving
the men, but the woman was drowned.
Ballooning is a p~erilous pastime at
best, and doubtless most men would
prefer that women be exempted from
the dangerous business.

The enthusiasm and friendliness of
the Italians before whom Wilbur
Wright is exhibiting his aeroplane
tend somewhat to embarrass the avia-
tor in his experiments. The crowd
present at the trials near Rome be-
comes so great and so curious at times
that the flights have to be suspended
temporarily. 1t is evident that the ma
tives have great admiration for the
American inventor and strong conf
dence in his ability to make good.

Perhaps a concerted movement by
the churches to have their feminine
members take off their hats at serv-
ices may abate the epidemic of hor-
rors now devastating the nerves of
the community. If the hats cannot be
wor where they can best be seen
their interest will soon be on the wane,
says the Baltimore American. 1t is
true that st. Paul decreed that a wom-
an must not have her head uncovered
in church, but then the architectural,
g~argoylish milliner was unknown in
his day, or his dlctum might have been
just the reverse.

exciting one in the history of the

pected to qualify and il is exceedingly
difficult at present to pick the winner.

| splendid tribute to the old settlers
and to the state of Iowa, which he con-
sidars the best in the union. He avoid
ed the subject of politics. saying that
! he believed that men of all parties
agreed on the subjects which touched
the public welfare. He also spoke Of
the United States navy, and took a
stand against enlarging it beyond abb

DAVIS FREED OF
SERIOUS CHARGE:
CRIMINAL CASE AGAINST ELDoN
EDITOR is DISMISSED BY
ATTORNEY MITCHELL.

w. S. Davis, formerly editor of the
Eldon Forum, has been exonerated 'of
the charge of assault with intent to
commit murder, in Justice M. l.. Kinks
court. Davis and Edward Sawyer Of
Eldon got into a quarrel at that place
Tuesday morning and Davis stabbed
Sawyer with his pocket knife. The
preliminary trial occupied the atten-
ton Of Justice Kinks court yesterday
afternoon and after several of the
states witnesses had given their evil
dence, upon motion of Assistant Co
Attorney E. R. Mitchell, the case
against Davis was dismissed for want
of sufficient evidence to hold the de
PENDANT to the grand jury.
Only the states evidence was intro
duced. Those who appeared for the
state were eye witnesses to the ARRAY
and their evidence was to the effect
that Davis had stabbed Sawyer while
the former was on the ground beneath
Sawyer.
