Good Record Made by Women.

Through the activity of women, in
the anti-tuberculosis campaign, sana-
toria and hospitals for the treatment
Of tuberculosis have been erected;
travelling libraries have been circu-
lated, posters, circulars and other
kinds of literature have been distrib-
uted to the number Of millions of
pieces, thousands of lectures have
been given, large sums of money have
been secured, hundreds Of needy cases
have been helped; tuberculosis work
has been started in many commune
ties where no movement had existed;
and millions of women have learned
the dangers and methods of proven
ton of tuberculosis. The work of the
women extends from the drawing room
of the rich to the homes of the poor,
and embraces all classes, including the
factory girl and millionaire. During
the coming year a special campaign OF
lectures to ONE will be carried on
In all parts of the United States.

CONDITION OF COTTON
isLIGHT FAILING OFF IN SOME OF
THE REPORTS.
In the State East Of the River the
Rainfall Was Not Evenly
Distributed.

Memphis, Tenn.-It is evident that
the recent rainfall in Texas has been
of scattered and local benefit, the pre-
cipitation being too light in most
cases to relieve the drouth. In the
central and southern parts OF the
state hollis are opening yer y rapidly
and almost the entire crop, unless rain
falls soon, will very shortly be ready
for the pickers. The yield promises
somewhat better than nat year, how
ever. Oklahoma's prospect continues
excellent, a record production being
indicated.
In other states returns do not aver
age quite so favorable as during the
preceding four weeks. The rainfall
has been ~unevenly distributed. and
there are places where shedding
is complained of, the most serious re-
ports coming from Central and South
ern Alabama. The crop in Louisiana
and Southern Mississippi will not be
Increased beyond it's present promise,
because of boil weevils.
In all eastern and valley states
where rain has fallen during the past
two weeks reports are good, and there
are some fine crops. The plant gen
orally has fruited well, but a late frost
is needed for maturing everything in
sight. AS a rule, cotton is opening
slowly, but the fruit is beginning to
mature more rapidly than heretofore.

TEDDY TALKS FARMING
CONSERVATION AND MORALS
REALLY ONE PROBLEM.
cities' Growth Only Evil, II Robs the
Rural Districts Of Good Citizens.
Speech Before Changers.

Utica, N. Y.-Theodore Roosevelt
Tuesday afternoon delivered the first
address of his Western tour at Sum
nit Park, this city, before a large
gathering of grangers. He spoke as
follows:
There are no two public questions
of more vital Importance to the flu
ture of this country than the prob
lem of conservation and the problem
OF the ~betterment Of public life.
Moreover, these two problems are
really interdependent, for neither OF
them can be successfully solved save
on condition that there is at least a
measurable success in the effort to
solve the other.
"All our industrial and commercial
welfare, all our material development
of every kind, depends in the last re-
sort upon u preserving and increas'
ing the fertility of the soil. This, OF
course, means the conservation of the
soil as the great natural resource;
and, equally, of course, 1t furthermore
implies the development of the coun-
try life, for there can not be a per
manent Improvement of the soil If the
life of those who live on it, and make
their living out of it, is suffered to
starve and languish, to become stunt
ed, and weakened and inferior to the
type of life lived elsewhere.
mo nation car develop a real civil
lization without cities. Up to a GER
tain point the city movement is thor
oughly healthy, yet it is a strange and
lamentable fact that always hitherto
after this point has been reached the
city has tended to develop at the ex-
pense of the country by draining the
country Of what is best in it, and maxi
ing an Insignificant return for this
best.

be and actually have been determined
by the vote Of delegates from states
which cast practically no vote for the

B. Cummins declared his intention Of
introducing in the senate a bill pro-
viding for the enactment of a nation
wide primary law.
Senator Cummins points to the diff
Guilty of making any change in the
method of procedure in national con-
ventions relative to the basis of the
representations and declares that If
congress does not act within a reason
able time upon his national primary
bill, he will propose a law regulating
national party conventions making the
basis of representation the party vote
instead Of population.

MISSING RANGERS
MORE THAN 100 RANGERS DIED.
SCORES OF CITIZENS.
Many Returning Rangers Helps Belief
That Many More Died Than
at First Estimated.

Spokane, interchangeable com
m%unication with the st. Joe Valley OF
Idaho has been restored. The esti-
mate of 200 dead in-the three states
is adhered to by those most familiar
with the situation.
Tragic stories are being told by ar
rivals from the fire zone in Idaho.
George Ryan of Toronto, Canada, one
of the thirty men imprisoned in War
Eagle mine, where six persisted, said:
There were se~venty-fve of us un-
der Ranger Pulaski. We first took ref
uge in the tunnel of the j. l. c. mine,
but it was not safe, and after we had
been there a short time thirty OF us
went down the creek a quarter OF a
mile to the War Eagle. l don't know
what became of the rest of the men.
I'VE took horses into the tunnel.
Pulaski told us to lie as close to the
floor of the tunnel as we could, or
close to the walls. We tried to block
up the entrance Of the tunnel with
blankets, but the fire burned them off
as fast as we put them up.
"The flames licked up fifteen feet
from the mouth like a blast. The
smoke was ~suffocating. About an hour
and a half after we had been in the
tunnel Pulaski, who was nearest the
mouth, lost consciousness.
1.-TWO men who got scared, rolled
around the middle of the tunnel, in
stead of keeping by the edge or on
the floor, and they died across my
knees.
Nearly all Of us during the six
hours were lying in water that had
dripped from the roof and walls of the
tunnel.
when the fire finally passed and
the tunnel cleared a little, nearly half
of us were unconscious. The eyes of
the others were gummed together
from smoke and tears so that we
could scarcely open them. Five were
dead.

200 DIE IN FOREST FIRE
SNOW AND TRANSFORMS QUENcH
THE FLAMES.
Wholesale Loss Of Life Occurred
When Men Were Striving
to Check Flames.

Spokane, WASN'T IL believed that
more than 200 persons, nearly all fire
fighters, persisted in the Idaho forest
fires.
Superintendent Weigle Of the Coue1
d'Alene national forest after receiving
many reports of disaster to various
parties of his 600 employees, posted
a bulletin Wednesday in his office at
Wallace announcing the death of ia
Of the men and also stated his grave
concern for the safety of Ranger JOS.
B. Hahn and seventy-four men who
were surrounded by fire in the for
est on the big fork of the Couer
d'Alene river, where another party
lost thirteen men.
The charred bodies of twenty-five
fighters were found on Setser creek IN
the st. Joe country.
Two burned Japanese dragged them.
selves to Avery, Idaho, and told OF
the death OF ten of their companions.
The twelve men, employees of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound rail.
road, had gone out to fight fire and
had been surrounded by flames, only
two escaping death.
The number of deaths in the state
Of Washington was reduced to three.
all in the Pend d'Oreille Valley near
Newport. One of these victims, Mrs.
Ernest Deinhardt, wife of a rancher,
was the only woman known to have
been burned to death in any Of the
fires.
The wholesale loss of life occurred
when great bodies of men were striv.
ing to check the flames.
The names of many of the dead will
never be known.
The rangers employed all the able
bodied men they could press into ser.
vice. When the groups of fire fight
ers were overwhelmed the camps were
also destroyed, the clothes were
burned off the bodies of the men and
the bodies of the dead were often so
charred that s%earohers stepped on
them, thinking they were pieces Of
burned logs. The fire obliterated the
trails and the burned country is diff
ficult to go through because Of fallen
trees.
In Montana rain and M fell,
checking the flames.
No one ventures to estimate the
financial loss, for the extent of the
burned area is not fully known. A
pine tree, centuries old, has o value
beyond the lumber it contains, and
the national forests have lost many
of the finest trees they possessed.

Luther M. Walter of Chicago, an at
