Municipal Nurses.

AoaANAAubAN SUM-
Back on many side street in Balti-
more, where the air is thick with bad
odors, where the gutters run slow and
the pavements are hot to the feet. q
white, pale-faced mother or a pain
racked father is whispering a gratitude
for the ministrntions of two brave
hearted women. With all that the city
Of Baltimore does with its disease
stricken poor. the work that II does
for its tuberculous poor through the
tender attentions Of these two women
stands in the forefront Up TO sew
eral months ago Miss Ellen M. La
motto and Miss G. G. Brumbaugh were
employed in this same work under the
auspices OF local charitable organiza-
tions. Now. however. they are en-
gagged in the same work under the
title OF municipal nurses. These two
women. day in and day out, are facing
situations which might make the
bravest- hearted man shudder. Every
day in Baltimore men and women are
dying OF the dread white plague, the
untamed progress of which is a scourge
upon civilization. Every day new vic
Tins Of It's rapacious greed are being
reported. and every day on these back
streets the cry Of despair goes forth.
IN the midst OF these dying scenes,
these scenes OF blasting hopes and
heartrending suffering. one or the other
of these brave women may be found,
closing the sightless eyes. cheering the
heart OF the new sufferer. smoothing
the pillow Of the dying. The progress
from house to house Is quiet and un-
ostentatious. But with their coming
the spark OF hope glows a little bright
er in the sufferer. II is hard work
and the mere physical effort OF It all
is trying. for the city is large and the
sufferers many. and much must be
done by force which the city OF
Baltimore in it's generosity has allow

hours are long and their remuneration

PERSONAL ELEMENT IN 1T.

IT He Democrats have been practically out Of
u power so long in Delaware that their can
didates nominated for important places are men
without records Hence what they would do if
placed in Office can be only conjectured. The
opposition 10 the Republicans have begun an
assault upon the Republican candidate for May
or They are saying little of the Democratic
candidate who has but a slight public record.
DR.. Spruance was a member of the Legisla-
ture years ago, with a rather negative record.
He has always been a strong party man and
fear among the Democrats that he would gain
no strength from sources necessary for Demo-
cratic victory, led to an attempt TO throw the
Democratic nomination to another man. These
efforts collapsed almost before they appeared on
the surface. And they vanished entirely as soon
as Mr.. Ford, the Democratic leader of the city,
announced that DIR. Spruance was acceptable to
him. II is reasonable to assume, therefore, that
the Democratic administration would be ad-
ministration similar to that of the Democratic
Organization of the city as represented by Mr..
Ford the Democratic council, and the Demo
Gratis, who but few, years ago were In the
Postles deal. Is there anything attractive about
that picture? To be sure the Democratic con
troll was nothing to brag of, as admitted

usual elastic conscience to find some good rea-
sons why the Democrats should win in the cleo

WAR ON MALARIA Is
WAGED BY ITALIANS
DIR. osLER PRAISES WORK OF
EUROPEANS
BY Increasing the Use OF ouinlne Phy-
sicians Reduce Mortality from
Disease Carried by Mos
quitoes

ROME, April 10.-Dr. William Osler,
who has been sojourning here, mas
written an elaborate article on Ma
laria." in which he says: we owe
much to the italians for their contribu-
tions to our knowledge of the cause OF
malaria. Laveran's great discovery was
promptly fathered by Marchiafava and
Cello and Golgi, and 1t was through
their writings that we obtained the
fgullest details of the nature and struc-
ture of the malarial parasite. As an
old student of the disease and deeply
interested in the practical problems OF
it's prevention, one of my first visits IN
Rome was to the laboratories of pathol-
ogy and of hygiene to find out from the
directors, Marchiafava and Celli, the
progress of the battle. 1t was not
enough to know the cause; we had TO
know how it worked before effective
measures could be taken. and the DEM
onstration by Ross OF the Transmission
of the disease by the mosquito at once
put malaria on the list of easily pre-
ventible infections. Just ten years ago
the italian Society for the Study or
Malaria was founded, and / was able
to get a full report of the work.
SIN Professor Cells lecture room
hangs the mortality chart of Italy for
the past twenty years. In 1887 mala-
ria ranked with tuberculosis, pneumo--
mia and the intestinal disorders OF
children as one of the great infections,
killing in that year 21,033 persons. The
chart shows a gradual reduction In the
death rate, and in 1906 only 4S71 per-
sons ditd of the disease. and in 1907
4160. This remarkable result has been
very largely due to the sanitary meas
ures introduced by the italian society.
1t has long been known that malaria
disappears spontaneously The Fen
country is now healthy; parts of Can
ada, about Lakes Ontario and Erie,
which were formerly hotbeds of the
disease, are now free. This cannot be
attributed altogether to cultivation
and drainage. I know places on the
shores of the lakes just mentioned in
which the conditions today are identi-
cal with those which 1 remember as
boy.

extreme western end of Lake Ontario

are there, but a case of malaria is al
most as rare as in England. The dis
appearance is largely due to the free
use of quinine The settlers early rec
ognized the important fact that mala-
ria was a disease liable to recur, and
it became common practice to take
Peruvian bark every spring and au-
tumn for year or two after an at
tack. This Id a point in prophylaxis
which the work of the Italian society
has brought into prominence. From
the summary of the decennial report
just issued the following paragraphs
are of interest:
''The society has improved the proph-
ylaxis of malaria, and has introduced
into practice the new mechanical meas
ures based on the defense of the habi-
tation and the individual from the bites
of mosquitoes. This being a relatively

Brooklyn Youngster Hid Runaway and

NEW YORK, April 11.-Just as Ray

year-old friend. at 922 Hancock street.
Brooklyn, along came Eddie's father,
gathered him up on a scoop shovel ana
tried to jam him into a scuttle. When
Ray gave a yell that rocked the build
ing, the Petry family discovered he had
been mingling with the coal since last
Thursday.
ITS all my fault" said Eddie, when
Ray was served with dispossess no.
tice. Ray told me he didn't have no
place to go, so told him to come with
me and I'd fix up a bed for him. He's
been living in the dark cellar ever
since"
ut was a bully spot, too" spoke up
Ray 1T had bully time"
All this was disclosed yesterday when
Mrs. Petry turned Ray over to the po-
lice of the Ralph avenue station. Mrs.
Petry said she had been missing pies,
cakes, cuts of meat and preserves, and
couldn't account for IT. Every time she
mentioned the fact, Eddie would volun-
teer the information that ne had eaten
them.
Mrs, Petry says she found it hard to
believe these stories because her hope
full was not gaining weight commensur-
ate with the amount of provender miss
ing.
Everything is clear now. Ray says
he never had better waiter than Ed
die. Seven and eight times a day his
chum would lift up the slide leading to
his apartment, and slip in load Of
good things.
1.-TWO more weeks and I'd have been
ready to tackle Jeffries," said Ray.
Ray is an orphan and lived with his
aunt, Mrs. Mary Schevlin of 1909 Madi-
son avenue. He says she didn't treat
him right, but Mrs. Scheviin says Ray
is bad boy and that he ran away from
good home. The Children's society
will investigate the case.
