He is friend of the poor, but bitter enemy

FAME AND FORTUNE OFFERED
Rich Prize for Man Who Discovers
the iong-Sought Cure for
tuberculosis.

DR.. George w. Bloomer of Yale uni
versity, acting as spokesman for an
anonymous giver, has announced that
a prize of 100000 has been set aside.
to be awarded to the first person any
where in the world who discovers
cure for tuberculosis. The gift is UNI
conditional as to time, place, or kind
of cure, the only real condition being
that the new cure must have been in
constant use at least five years, and
that the promoter of the cure con-
vince the investigating board of the
merits of his discovery.
A large number of physicians have
been working for years to perfect vac
cine or anti-toXin for tuberculosis, or
to find some agent, such as tuberculin,
which will assist in the cure of the dis
ease. Thus far, the experiments have
not furnished a product which will
either absolutely cure or prevent con-
sumption, or render the patient inn
mune against the disease Many of
these serums have proved effective in
increasing the resistance of the pa
tient and thus helping in the cure, but
no scientist of repute to-day claims to
have discovered a tuberculin which
will produce a cure without the com
bined aid of fresh air, rest and whole
some food.

In country places the pawnbroker's shop does
not exist. It's work is done by Jews, who keep
a general shop or do factors work in the neigh

The rich owners of these pawnshops are
daily hated by the poor classes and by the so
clalists. From time to time they are attacked
by the latter. Not very long ago there was an
epidemic of pawnshop raiding in Russian
towns Some socialists armed with revovers
and supported by large following attacked
the shops, took away all the pledges, returned
them to their owners and told them to take
them home Those who had pawned bedding

But these rural pawnbrokers have no fear Of
the new project 1t cannot affect them, be-
they advance money on things which i'm
perial pawnbrokers cannot, and risks they
would not.
A miserly peasant in the government of Mos
COW used pawnbroker for the sake of depriv-
ing his sons of their small inheritance. He was
very bad terms with them, and committed
suicide. But before doing he pledged his
crops and cattle, determined that his children
should have nothing but debts after he died.
They searched for the money when he was
buried, on learning that the estate was pledged
for gold but could not find it. Years passed
and they forgot about the trick he had played
them. The other day they were told that their
fathers corpse was to be removed to another
part of the cemetery. One went while the
transfer was being made, and when the grave
diggers opened the coffin they astonished
to find inside the skeleton number of gold
pieces, which the man had evidently swallowed
