PelIagra and Corn Foods

From two such widely separated points as Peoria, Illinois, and Durham, North Carolina, alarming reports have come concerning the spread of Pellagra, a disease new to this country and of mysterious origin. The only theory SC dence, however, is conflicting, both in North Carolina and in Illinois, cases having been noted among victims known not 70 have eaten corn or any of its pro. ducts. The United States army has ordered one of Its bacteriologists-an ex- pert on tropical diseases---to go to Peoria and study the plague.-Collier's

House With Q History

An old revolutionary house is still standing on the hill just above the station at Falls Village and quite near the sanitarium. It was occupied during the war of the revolution by Lieut.. Asahel Bebee and his family. He was distinguished officer ill the army and at one time commissary general. Whether he built the house himself does not seem to be known. He was twice married and had 24 children. Towards the close of the war, one fine morning, when the young ladies of the family were dressing. one chanced to look out of aR upper window and saw armed men coming towards the house from the direction of Lime Rock, the sun shining on their highly polished arms. They were bringing the news of the defeat of BurgOyne and the final victory of the American army. They had marched all night in their haste to reach their homes, only stopping at daybreak to make themselves as neat as possible. To say they were welcomed with un- stinted hospitality is needless; soon bells were ringing, cannon firing and the whole community rejoicing. A few days later the remnant of BurgOyne's B army (greatly lessened by desertions) returned over much the same route. They camped for one night on the banks of the Housatonic, about a mile and q half below the present station at Falls Village The officers of the army were entertained at ball (as it was called at Lieut.. Bebee's), where victor and van quished met on the friendliest terms. An old lady who lived within the memory of some of the present generation used to relate how she, then a girl of I6, danced with some of the British officers and how polite they were. The next morning they resumed their march. Many visited the ruins of the camp. some securing mementoes of their stay. A member of the Horsford family found very large iron key which looked as if it might have belonged to a dungeon: it's use was of course unknown.
