A New York Firm Who Won't

men. Is Gray Hair a. Ban to
Employment?

New York City sends out more
statesmen, twice over, in all probab
flity, than any other city in the world.
At an annual banquet given by a big
firm to its statesmen there were pres
ent some two hundred gray-haired
and bald-headed statesmen. 1t was a
subject OF mournful discussion among
them that the firm was commencing
to prefer younger men. One old pat
riarch, grown gray in the service, re-
marked to several gathered around
him: Here 1 am doing as good if
not better work than 1 ever did in my
life; yet, because am commencing to
show my age, am slated for the has

Mosquito Bites Proved Fatal to White
Sailors.

New York, May ia story of death
and hardship due to mosquitoes was
told by Captain Frederick Weeks. navi-
gator of the Vereston, a small British
steamship now in port from Kingston.
The vessel was brought to New York

cuperat1ng from malarial fever due to
the insect bites
The Vereston had gone up the
Madeira river, branch of the Anna
zon, 1,7O0 miles from Para, with rail-
way supplies. There was a stop at
Porto Velpo for n days, and although
the men were screened in at night, thew
were bitten in the daytime by huge
mosquitoes. OF the % members of the
crew, IL contracted the fever.
Two firemen who weighed 200 pounds
were so emaciated when they got to
Kingston that their relatives failed to
recognize them. The homeward trim
started March rs and one man died as
the Vereston went down the river.
The day before Kingston was reached
another man died and the next night a
fireman died just as the ship was max
ing port.
