SLEEPING SICKNESS
CAN'T GET TEDDY. =
Immune From That Disease,
Declares Friend.

Washington, March 5.-Col. Cecil
Lyon, of Texas, one of the Ioudest
Roosevelt boomers extant, called at
the whitehouse to repeat his request
that a political friend be appointed
a federal judge in the Lone Star state.
Say" he said on leaving, Il have
seen story coming from Africa that
Col. Roosevelt may die from sleeping
sickness. That's the limit. They
don't know the colonel over there. I
will admit that he's in danger of be-
ing chewed up by a hinoceros, kicked
full of holes by the dig-dig, stung by a
singing topi, chased to death by a
giant Gland or poisoned by the fangs of
Thompson's gazelle, but I'll bet my
Liead that he never catches sleeping
sickness. Believe me, that mans i'm
mime fom that disease"
Capt. Fitz Duquesne, of German
East Africa, lion hunter and Boer
war fighter, at one time thought of
by Mr.. Roosevelt to head his African
expedition, exposed fear here yester-
day that Mr.. Roosevelt and members
Of his party have not escaped infec-
ton from the sleeping sickness. Capt.
Duquesne said:
The subtle poisons of the infectious
African regions are in the blood of the
members of the Roosevelt party I'M
less they miraculously escaped infec-
tion and will manifest themselves
before the party reaches Europe 1t
is highly probable that every member
of the Roosevelt party has the sleep
ing sickness virus in his veins. 1t
may not develop until they reach Eu-
rope or even America The sleeping
sickness is sometimes not manifested
for several months after infection
occurs. It is we'll nigh impossible
that the Roosevelt party, passing
through so many of the sickness zones,
has escaped infection"

IMPORTANT ACT is OVERLOOKED
BY THE POLITICIANS
Counties Preparing to Hold Primaries
Illegally.

Hon. Henry A Alexander, represen-
tative from Fulton county, declares
that the counties of Georgia which are
making preparations to hold primaries
for the state legislature in May or
early in the summer, have entirely ov-
erlooked the act of August Is, 1903,
providing that no general primary can
be held earlier than sixty days before
the date of the general state election
in Georgia.
Now the state election will be held
the first Wednesday in October, which
is October 5th, and consequently Mr.
Alexander points out the fact that no
primary can be held before August 9Th.
Mr.. Alexander is of the opinion that
this is a point of law which has been
entirely overlooked by most of the
counties in the state, for many have
already announced their intention of
holding the legislative primary at a
date considerably earlier than August
9th.
