Erects Hospital Where Sur
geons Nav Garry on
Their Researches.

New York, Dec. Ir.-As a result of
John d. Rockefeller's latest bequest
the new hospital Of the Rockefeller
institute the most extensive investi-
cations ever undertaken in the history
of medical science will be made of the
cause and cure of mortality, producing
diseases.
The first diseases to Nbe studied by
the coterie of eminent scientists in
charge of the new hospital will be
infantile paralysis. a scourge that has
been reaping a rich harvest through
out the large cities of the world The
disease attacks all classes of children,
and even if a child RECEIVERS it is dis
figured for life.
The afflicted limb of the little pa
tient ceases to grow during the raw
ages of the disease while the other
members continue a normal develop
ment. Mortality among those affected
is very high
Serum as Preventative.
That, human serum derived from
children who have passed through an
attack of paralysis possesses neutral
izing power for the virus of PARALYSIS
in animals has been stated already.
says DIR. Flexner. 1T can now be
stated that it possesses therapeutic
begun "a hours after the incubation of
the virus, the development of paralysis
can be entirely prevented in a certain
number of the animals, while in an.
other number the onset of paralysis
is much delayed.
The serum treatment of infantile
paralysis is as yet in its infancy" DR..
Flexner continued, but with our added
means for observation together with
the unequaled scientific appliances en-
bodied in the new hospital, it is not
improbable that we may see the last
of this devastating affliction"
This new hospital will serve as a
most valuable aid TO the doctors in
their work of Investigation In it. the
patients suffering from the particular
disease under Investigation will re-
ceive the best medical care that sci
ence can produce and at the same time
will be objects of study TO the medical
savants in charge.

The total number on the retired list on
June 80. 1910, was 1915. as. compared
with 1000 at the corresponding date the

Elimination OF Officers.
L renew the recommendation made in
my last annual report in regard to the
passage of measure providing for the
elimination from time to time of rea-
sonable number of the Ieast-efficient
officers and the filling of their places
by new officers. The enactment of
legislation on this subject was recon-
mended by two of my predecessors. Mr.
Taft and Mr.. Wright, as indispensable
to the efficiency of the army
The number of officers absent from
their commands on detached service on
June 80, 1910, was 72S. The only sat
isfactory way to prevent the. very bad
effects of this necessary condition upon
the discipline and instruction of troops
is by the enactment of legislation pro-
viding sufficient number of officers
for the performance of all the various
duties which the army is required by
law to perform. 1 regard the increase
in the number of Officers of the army
= and the elimination of the least eff
cient officers, as two of the most i'm
measures lOT increasing the eff
ficiency of the personnel of the army.
Military Academy,
On September l, 1910, there were 416
cadets at the military academy as com
pared with all on the corresponding
date the previous year. Included in
this number were two cadets from Cuba,
one from Costa Rica, one from Ecuador.
and one from Venezuela. At the pres
ent time there are 122 vacancies for the
appointment of cadets.
Airships
All European first class powers are
deyoting a great deal of attention to the
subject of military aeronautics, and are
diSplay ing marked activity in the de-
velopment and supply of botn the dir
gible and the aeroplane for war pur-
poses while the United States is prac-
tically at a standstill in this matter
In my judgment the time has come
when it would be wise TO make appro-
priations ADEQUATE for providing the

FOLLOWS YOUNG WOMAN;
DRIVEN AWAY WITH GUN
Long Beach Girl, Annoyed by a
FIirt, Summons Aid of
Sweetheart

LONG BEACH, July 26.-Residents
of American avenue witnessed an in
teresting gun play at late hour last
night. The case was not reported to
the police and the names of the princi-
pals were not learned. The cause OF
the trouble was learned from the con-
versation of the principals.
a Long Beach girl who works in Los
Angeles had been annoyed by a Los
Angeles man who rode to this city on
the same car with her and tried to
force his attentions on her. This had
happened several nights. Last night
the girl alighted from the car at Sec
ond street and American avenue, and
the man from Los Angeles followed
her up the street, as he had done
before.
1t is supposed the girl had posted
her sweetheart in this city, for he
was waiting for her at the corner of
Third street and American avenue last
night, and when the other man ap-
peared, following the young woman,
the Long Beach swain stepped up to
him, pointed a 3S-caliber revolver at
him and told him that II he ever re-
peated his annoying tactics he would
receive a bullet in his head
The stranger made a move as if to
draw a weapon from his hip pocket,
but desisted when the local man
pressed the muzzle of his revolver
against the intruder's shirt front. The
Los Angeles man was forced to walk
to Second street and to board a car
bound for Los Angeles.

ELABORATE PLANS To
BEAUTIFY BOULEVARD
Property Owners on MiIIionaireS'
Row to Present Proposition
to Pasadena Council

PASADENA, July 27.-Plans to make
Orange Grove boulevard or Million
aires row, world famous have been
revived by members of the West Side
Improvement association and property
owners. It is proposed to present to
the city council next Tuesday q petit
ton signd by the owners of a majority
of the frontage asking that proceed
ings be instituted for the Improvement
of the boulevard with the latest and
best pavement, narrowing the road
way to A feet and widening the park
ings to IS feet installing numerous
ornamental street lights and build
ing underground condutts for electric
light and other wires.
George W. Stimson, wealthy west
slider, and Ernest H. Lockwood, agent
for the Adolphus Busch interests, are
said to be the leaders in the movement.
Associated with them are John S.
Cravens. HulIett c. Merritt, Arthur
II. Fleming, Fred e. Wilcox, e. p.
Clapp, DR.. e. L. Conger and DR.. w.
P. Morse These men have been given
power to act for the signers of the
petition. OF the $4,000 feet Of frontage
affected 5000 feet have been signed up
and letters have been sent to non-resl-
dents who 1t Is said will agree 10
the proposition of making this the nm
est boulevard on the coast.
It is planned to do the work under
the ten year bonding act at the ex-
pense of abutting property. The title
of the underground conduit would be
vested in the city and revenue from
the same applied to the expense or
maintenance of the parkings. An clap
orate watering system for the park
ings is also proposed.

EDISON COMPANY FIGHTS
MUNICIPAL LIGHT PLANT

PASADENA, July 27-Carrying out
its threat made when the municipal
light plant went after more business
at a scent rate, the Edison company
filed its new schedule of rates with
the city council yesterday, just in time
to legally go into effect September /.
After that date the corporation rate
for electrical energy will be cents
kilowatt hour for 100 llilowatts or less
per month and graded to pa cents
where over 1000 kilowatts are used.
is said that this action will have
no effect upon the city's campaign for
new customers, owing to the fact that
the Edison company, when the present
war started, attempted to make cam
paign capital out of the Accent argu-
Tnent coupled with the offer Of free
lamp renewals and no monthly min
imum charge, and that the city has
gained over 1900 new subscribers IN
five weeks in the face of this opposi-
ton. New names are being added TO
the city list daily, and it is said that
many more are awaiting a favorable
time to cut loose from the corporation
which is fighting the municipal plant.

seems to be no provision in the char
ter giving the council power to reg
ulate such conditions; in fact, char
ter amendment No. provides that
the property owners shall connect

that all public service corporations
