DEATH DUE TO X-RAY.
Noted Specialist Contracts Cancer
From Using Roentgen Machine.

Philadelphia, July. 13.-Dr Hihran K.
Kassabian, one of the best known X
ray specialists in the United States,
died at a hospital here today from skin
cancer contracted from burns received
during many years of practice with
Roentgen rays
In 1902 DR.. Kassabian's hands were
seriously burned and in 1908 two fingers
on his left hand were amputated. Last
year an operation was performed on
his left arm pit, which had been at
tackled by the same malady. Several
glands were removed and the wounds
dressed, but they refused to heal and
shortly after much more serious
operation had to be made on the left
pectoral muscles.
After this operation it was found
that the whole left side had been nf-
fected and the doctors condition was
pronounced critical Ten days ago re
went to the hospital in a dying condi
ton.
Dr. Kassabian was born in Asia
Minor, in 1868

MANY SLEEPING OUTDOORS.
Lawrence People Joining Ranks OF
Fresh Air Brigade.

Lawrence, Kan, July 13.-There
are many Lawrence people who are
sleeping out of doors these nights and
where they have no regular arrange
ment for thus securing as much fresh
air as possible, home made contriv-
ances are doing as well.
Most of these are where people have
porches SO built that they can sleep
out on these, protected by mosquito
bar or some other form of netting to
keep out the insects. Others have their
porches screened in or by some other
plan they manage to sleep out of doors
all night. On many of the new homes
being built regular sleeping chambers
through which the fresh air can cir
culate all night are being provided.
The movement for sleeping out of
doors is growing with great rapidity
all over the world. Not only is it adj
vocated for people afflicted with tuber-
culosis. but for others, sometimes as a
preventive of that dread disease, to
merely insure good health.

BLIND MAN is A BALL FAN
Abilene Piano Tuner Attends All the
Games Played There.

Abilene, Kan, July &c. A. Gish,
piano tuner, is totally blind. but is a
great baseball fan. He attends all the
ball games at Abilene and is well ac-
quainted with the names of the play
ers and the merit of each on the field
He can tell you how many balls or
strikes there are on. a batter and how
many outs on the side at bat. After
the game he can tell the features of
the game and enjoys joining crowd
of baseball enthusiasts to play the
game over verbally.
How can 1 enjoy a ball game when
I can not see a play?" said Mr.. Gish.
well, 1 listen to what the people
about me are saying. 1 can tell every
play that is made providing there is
not too much noise. When the ball
leaves the bat 1 generally can tell
where it is knocked and who makes
the putout.
Sometimes 1 hear people around
me asking how many strikes are on
the batter, and if they would ask me
I could tell them, because 1 always
listen for the umpire's decision. I can
not tell when outfield play is made,
but 1 get that by asking someone near
me. L can give detailed account OF
any baseball game 1 attend. which
sounds foolish, but nevertheless, it Is
true

FOURTH PAN-AMERICAN.
Conference Begins at Buenos Ayres-
A Long Session.

Buenos Ayres, July 13.-The fourth
international conference of American
republics was formally opened in this
city yesterday and will remain in ses-
sion for fiv cor six weeks.
The last conference was held in Rio
Janeiro in 1896 and was generally re-
garded as a success. The present con-
ference plans to adopt series Of reso-
buttons framed for the actual good Of
continent, subject to ratification by the
governments concerned, and In some
quarters this gathering is regarded as
second only to the great peace corner
ence at The Hague.
The members of the American dele
cation are: t-a1 "a
/ Henry White, former American am
bassador to France Prof. Paul
Reinsch, University OF Wisconsin;
Prof David Kinley University of I'LL
nois; Prof. John Bassett Moore.
Columbia university, New York: Prof.
Bernard Moses, University of = Cali
fornia; E. B. Moore. United States
commissioner of patents, Washing ton; ;
J. B. Quintro. lawyer and journalist
of New Orleans: Col Enrich Crowder,
assistant Judge advocate general of the
army, Washington; Lewis Nixon. for
mer naval constructor. New York !;
Prof. ]. B. Shepherd Columbia univer-
sity; George Cabot Ward, former
secretary of state of Porto Rico. and
William T. S. Doyle, assistant chief of
the division of Latin American affairs,
state department.
The opening address of welcome will
be delivered by Rev. DR.. LaPaza. the
Argentine minister of foreign affairs.
Henry White will reply in behalf of
the delegates.
The newspaper La Razon, comment
ing today on the reports published in
Europe that Argentina, Brazil and
Chile are planning the formation of
an alliance, the object of which. shall
be to counter balance the policy and
effect of the actions of the government
of the United States on the American
continent, declares that the policy of
the northern republic does not give
any reason for such an entente. An
alliance of this kind, the paper says,
would result in no advantage to Ar
gentina; on the contrary, it would
have the effect of placing great restric-
lions on her commerce.
The International Scientific congress,
held in connection with the Pan-Amer-
lean gathering. had it's first session to-
day in the Colon theater.

KNOCKOUT HELPED oTTAwANs
Johnson's Victory Led to Black Strike
That Raised White Wages.

Ottawa. Kan, July 13.-When Jack
Johnson knocked out Jim Jeffries he
put II cents an hour into the pockets
of six white laborers working on the
Guy building at the corner of Fifth
and that, too. without bit of effort
on the part of the white men.
1t cost five negroes just 50 apiece,
however, to be the benefactors of the
white race, and this is how it hap
pened:
When the negro workmen heard
that Johnson won the fight, they be-
gan to feel proud of the black race,
and as the hours flew by the feeling
assumed the proportions of a demand
for 25 cents an hour instead of the
221z cents that all laborers at the
bod, white or black, were getting.
So the negroes struck.
The white men kept right on carry
ing brick and mortar, but the negroes
won their point and this morning went
back on the job at 25 cents an hour.
Contractor C. A Alexander immediate
ly raised the white mems wages to 25
cents, too, and that's how Jack John
son has lightened the white mans
burden.
