Every drunkard that has ever

drunkards who will go to drunk
ards graves in 1910 once said that.

first glass with that old Virginia
gentleman, that his last words
would be: take thy beak from
out my heart, take thy form from
off my door, quoth the raven,
nevermore?" Do you suppose the

fame round by round, ever thought
that his last words would be:

The White Plague.

Inebriety and consumption are
twin diseases, the one following
the other. The disease germs Of
the latter would not flourish in the
lungs if the brain and nervous
system were strong enough to
throw them off. Alcohol not only
frequently causes tuberculosis, but
there are many cases where the
children of drinkers develop the
white plague. A consumptive
patient frequently presents him.
self, in whom the most diligent
search fails to reveal the slightest
trace of family consumption. The
condition is frequently found in
the young, especially in girls, who,
after careful inquiry, are found to
have a father or mother, or some-
times both, who had been tipplers
of alcohol.
Children of alcoholic parents
are from 200 to 260 per cent. more
liable to consumption and from
800 to 600 Ger cent. more prone to
nervous diseases than are the
children of abstemious parents

The Moral Sentiment of Liberia,

Out of 1900, 900 inhabitants in
Liberia, only about $4,000 are civ
ilized and constitute the voting
class. The government revenues
are almost exclusively derived
from import customs duties, and
the abolition of liquor from reve-
nue. would still more cut down this
income, which is already mad
equate to meet the needs Of the
governments expenses.
The moral sentiment of Liberia
is, however, so strongly against
the liquor traffic that there is not a
single saloon in the whole Repub-
lie, and many of the merchants
refuse to sell it at all. The prohibi-
tive sentiment may also be seen in
the infrequency in which cases OF
drunkenness appear in the courts,
or are noted in the streets. There
are less Intoxicating liquors used
in Liberia than any other section
of the West African coast.-The

AMERICA GETS 100000 undesirable
IMMIGRANTS YEARLY THROUGH NEW YORK

of the state lunacy commission, who
has spent years Investigating the
matter and is admittedly one of the
best posted American experts on
the immigration problem, is author
ity for this. Discussing the subject
today he said
EVILS OF LAW.
There is no APPARENT cure for the
great evil of immigration. If an
attempt is made to hold up some of
the most undesirable there comes
a wave of protest from every quar-
ter of the United States. We are
told that we are trying to prevent
people improving their condition
and newspapers unite in denounc-
ing the officials and many times
raise money enough to get those
held up into America.
AN educational test and an in
crease in the head tax might aid
but there is little chance that con-
gress will act on this problem. The
three year period in which an immi-
grant who becomes public charge
can be sent back at the expense
VI TIE steamship iiue DIlllSlUS ulIu
should be extended to five years,
however. Statistics show most of
the aliens who fall back on the
communities for support do so
within three to five years. If they
get over the five year period they
usually are all right.
My declaration that many aliens
coming here are so weak mentally
they cannot remember where they
came from or, in some instances,
cannot recall their names, is not
far fetched They have little idea
of the division of time-one day is
the same to them as another-and
they live and die here without i'm
proving mentally"
William Williams. commissioner
of immigration of the port of New
York, in many respects concurs in
the views of DR.. Wilgus. Our ex-
CluSiOn laws are eaSy-going, he
says. and even when strictly en-
forced keep out only the very bad
portion of the foreign element.

He CARRIED CHEER To LEPERS-
NOW HEROIC PRIEST IS DYING

CANTON, China, April 30.-Amid
the sQualor and unspeakable hor.
rors Of leper village. Father
Lambert Louis Conrardy, a Roman
Catholic priest is dying. Working
among the outcasts and carrying
cheer to those for whom there is
no hope, the priest contracted the
dreaded disease and now 1t Is but
matter of time before his name
Will be numbered among those of
the countless who have been
claimed by leprosy.
On the outskirts of Canton is the
village for the "unclean." Here
Father Conrardy labored day and
night, administering to the stricken
lpd the last rites to the dying. He
" but the ordinary precautions
against leprosy. One day he was
called to the side of young man
who was breathing his last. I'm
mindful of the peril the priest
stayed by the bedside and stroked
the hand of the dying boy
A little scratch on his hand came
In contact with the skin of the
youth. Soon it became known that
the priest had contracted the dread
disease, and it wasn't long before
the first signs of leprosy showed.
Six years is all that is left to the
heroic priest, for this is the life Of
an adult stricken with leprosy.
Father Conrardy comes of a no
BILE Belgian house. He gave up the
l,e of ease and wealth for the cas-
sock. For many years he followed
lNher Damien, who came of peas
ant stock, and upon his death con-
tinued the work alone. In the
leper's colony of Molokai he fol-
lowed the work. and, when the gov
eminent took over the colony and
the condition Of the unfortunates
was improved, he turned his face
toward a still more distressful
communicative leper settlement
near Canton.
One last visit he made to civiliza-
ton. studying the disease and Sc
curing funds. Then he turned his
back upon the life of ease and took
up his work.
