ENGLAND'S QUEEN SNUBS
PESTIFEROUS GRAND DANES
ChangeabIe Committee Women
Given Pointed Rebuke

LONDON, May IA decided snub
was recently administered by the
queen to the committee of one of the
numerous societies in which her ma
jesty is interested. 1t seems that the
committee was anxious for the queen
to fix an early date for receiving the
members of the society in the grounds
of Buckingham palace. Although of
the opinion that it was rather early
in the year for open air functions, her
majesty consented to their solicita-
tions and fixed a day. Subsequently,
however. some of the committee, which
includes several society DANES, thought
it might be wiser to postpone the re-
ception until the warm weather set in,
and hied themselves to the palace fully
expecting there would be no difficulty
whatever in altering the date. Much
to their chagrin and confusion, they
were informed that her majesty having
graciously consented in the first in
stance to the date suggested, in spite
of her own doubts as to its suitability,
could not possibly fall in with the pro-
posal for a postponement, and the re-
ception must be held according to
schedule.

Connaught Rangers Admit Crime
and Are Sent to Prison

DUBLIN, May 7.-Nanton window-smashing

very prevalent Of late in the Clonmel district

the severe punishment administered at the
quarter sessions Andrew Flynn and Thomas

stationed in Tipperary. pleaded guilty to
smashing. the plate glass window of Mr.
Duncans jewelry establishment.
Mr. Gleeson said this was similar case
10 those which were now so common in every
quarter It was the old story where soldiers
smashed windows or stole things to get out OF
the army In this case the two soldiers were
caught by the watchmans son. and they
went quietly with him to the police bar

He would ask the court to impose sub

they should now get fed up, by being sent to

sessions after sessions and this conduct will
have to be put an end to. The sentence Is
that each prisoner get one years imprlson-

100000 Annually.
The latest statistics issued in Berlin
show that the population Of Germany
is now 64,750.0OO and will be 65,G00,-
COO when the next census is taken on
Dec. l. The increase of population
has been about 100000 year for a
long time.
Forty years ago France and Ger
many were about even n population.
Now Germany has G5,U00,000 people
and France only 100000. The eco
nomic and military effects of this dis
proportion of population in the two
rival countries is obvious.
Germany cannot complain of a tend
ency TO race suicide among her peo-
pie. The birth rate is declining, but
the death rate is declining more rap
idly Thirty years ago 100000 Ger
mans emigrated annually.
This figure has now been reduced to
about 10000. Germany seems pros
porous enough to make it of advantage
for Germans TO remain at home.

SMOKING CAUSE OF CRIME.
Italian Government Aboishes Tobac-
cos Use by Juveniles.


The royal commission appointed by
the Italian government to inquire into
the causes and practicable remedies
for juveline crime in Italy has recon-
mended the adoption of legislation sim
liar to that recently passed in Great
Britain for the suppression of smoking
among children.
1t is proposed to forbid boys and
girls under sixteen to smoke or carry
smoking materials, while persons sup
plying young people with tobacco
would be liable to fine Of 500. Par
ents and guardians permitting smoking
among their charges would be liable
to prosecution.
The commission further urges that
teachers, employers, the police and
government inspectors should be en-
powered to confscate smoking ma
terials found on children under age in
schools, workshops and public places.
The success of the new legislation in
England is apparent, smoking in public
by children having been effectually
suppressed.

BERLIN BOY TRUMPETER
GUILTY CT LESE MAJESTY
Sounded Royal BusIe Blast and Shock
ed Police Nerves.

A boy with toy trumpet upset the
tranquility Of Schoneberg, a suburb Of
Berlin, the other day and at the same
time committed an act of lese majestic
which is occupying the serious atten-
ton of the police.
When the German emperor or mem
bers of his family 90 about in automo-
biles they do not depend upon the
honk-honk of the common motor horn
to clear passage for them through
the streets. Instead trumpeter is
seated alongside the driver. and the
sound of his bugle blast is familiar
enough to bring traffic to an immediate
halt to allow the royal car to pass.
while the populace crowds the side
walks to get glimpse of the royal
parsonage.
The boy in question was playing on
toy trumpet on second floor bal
cony. The royal bugle blast had be-
come familiar to him. and without con-
sidering the consequences he sounded
it upon the trumpet with such fidelity
that the street below was instantly in
a state of commOtion. The sidewalks
were lined with loyal subjects anxious
to salute the imperial automobile. A
lieutenant in full uniform who was
crossing the street clicked his heels
and sprang stiffly to attention in the
middle of the road.
Three minutes passed, but no car
appeared The boy then brought about
his own urdoing by repeating the
blast, thus revealing the source of the
signal.

DIVORCED BRIDES AGE EIGHT

Abyssinian Record Separation Caused
by Intriguing Aunt.
The youngest divorced couple in the
world are to be found in the court of
Abyssinia. On May 16, 1909, the Prin-
cess Romantic Onosk was married to the
Prince Lidj Eyassu, the heir apparent,
the bride then being eight years Of
age and the bridegroom fourteen.
Now they have been divorced.
1t is not a question of fault on either
side, no incompatibility of temper,
none of the causes which figure so
frequently in usual divorce division.
The princess happens to be the niece
of the Empress Taitu. and this lady
is not popular with the regents of the
country. So to prevent the empress
exercising any baneful influence upon
the future rulers wife the statesmen
have required the prince to divorce

Made Bakeries Sanitary.

DR.. Evans took hold of the under
ground bakeries and insanitary kitch-
ems, even invading the first class no.
tells and restaurants. The latter fought
him and succeeded in getting the law
under which he was working declared
unconstitutional. But after a years
struggle Dr. Evans has obtained a new
ordinance giving him power to close
any bakery having improper lighting,
ventilation or general sanitation.
Next he paid his respects to the
nickel theaters. Chicago already had
devoted some ordinances to the moral
side of the moving picture show. As a
result of his demand that the 100 or
500 theaters of this sort in Chicago
should be adequately ventilated-and
the doctor specifies what he means by
adequately is now plenty Of

have been passed recently for the ven

lishments of like character.

People Also Thrive.

Events soon gave this same DR.. Ev-
ans large measure of influence over
health conditions in Chicago. When
Mayor Busse came into office in Jan
uary, 1907, his greatest problem was
the selecting of health commissioner.
! When he declared that he would APP
point any man whoR the medical pro-
fession should selectNa big committee
of Chicago doctors unanimously decid-
ed on DR.. Evans.
In an investigation early in his term
DR.. Evans showed precisely the kind
of air that the people of Chicago were
breathing. The laboratory experts re
ported that in one of the largesS the
aters the air was worse than that in
English prison cells. In the street
cars the passengers were breathing
along with minimum quantities of oxy-
gen, microscopic particles of ''seot,
sand, hair. starch. wool from cloth
ing" and other materials. This descrip-
ton. of course, fits most American
cities.
Hygienists divide the contagious dis
ing caused by one of three things-in-
pure water, impure food or impure air.
Typhoid is the most important disease
of the first class and is caused main
ly by drinking impure water Dyson
terry is the most important of the sec
ond, caused largely by eating impure
food, while the diseases most common.
ly caused by impure air are tuberculo-
sis, pneumonia and bronchitis.
Everywhere modern science has made
wonderful progress in combating the
diseases caused by bad water and bad
food. Take the city of Chicago for
example. 1t built its famous drainage
canal and at stroke cut down its ty-
phoid rate nearly 500 per cent. BY
the careful inspection of food, especial
ly the babies milk supply, the dysen-
terry death rate was cut in half. But
the story of the impure air diseases is
not so reassuring
When DR.. Evans took charge of the
health department these diseases in
stead of decreasing were increasing.

cities had made great progress in sub
DUNG tuberculosis. In Chicago the
progress was almost inappreciable.
Pneumonia was on the increase
More people were dying of this than
of any other disease. In Chicago fifty
years ago pneumonia ranked eighth as
the most frequent cause of death. By
1907 it was first in rank.
Forced Air In Cars.
DIR. Evans first directed his atten-
| ton to the street cars. He approached
the railroad companies and suggested
changes. In all attempts TO ventilate
street cars he insisted on the reogni-
ton of two fundamental principles
some apparatus must be contrived to
the top of the car and the fresh, cold
air must be introduced at the bottom.
DR.. Evans explained all this to the
railroad companies. but they did not
readily see the point. He then prompt
ly brought suits. but he did not have
to push them far. for as soon as they
saw that the health commissioner
meant business the corporations
agreed to ventilate the cars.
In the roofs of these cars are ex-
haust appliances which mechanically
suck out the used up air in the floors,
and under the seats are large intakes
into which the outside air constantly
pours and after passing over the steam
coils rises into the breathing zone. On
the coolest days. when the doors and
windows are shut tight and when the
cars are packed. every passenger has
an allotment of 400 cubic feet of out
side air an hour.
Then DR.. Evans tackled the schools,
went through them and found an as
tonishing percentage of backward pu-
pills. The thing most responsible for
their backwardness was hot. dry air.
All air fit for the sustenance of hui
man beings contains a large percent
age of water vapor,
The Chicago schools and the public
schools in nearly all American cities
took this humid air from outdoors and
heated it until nearly all the water
was squeezed out. The school rooms
were thus filled with air the relative
humidity of which was only 49, where
as natures own air contains about -.
The child subjected to such an atmos-
phere for any length of time becomes
kiln dried and untitled to perform the
usual functions of his body, to say
nothing of his mind
As a result of this agitation the Chi
cago educational system has original
ed new verb, "to humidity" The
meaning is simple. All hot air before
entering the school room is passed
through jets of water or of steam. 1t
now picks up its moisture in "humidi-
flying" chambers in the basement in

We're constantly exposed to its chill
ing drafts. A matched shelter was
provided into which they could re-
treat when the weather became too
icy, but no artificial heat was supplied.
With the gradual approach of winter
the monkeys showed as natural an in
clination for the cold, open air as their
healthy brothers did for the hot
drafts inside the monkey house. Pres
emily there appeared upon their ema-
ciated bodies a faint sprouting of
hair, which grew thicker as the wealth

winter was over all of them had thick
brown furry coats; their muscles had
grown large and strong; they ate
eagerly and manifested an increased
desire for the favorite simian pastime
fighting.
But the twenty monkeys that had
entered the steam heated monkey
house in splendid physical condition
had not Jared so well. By spring not a
single one was alive-all had died of
tuberculosis.
The five outdoor animals, however.
never showed the slightest trace of the
disease. And two of them are still liv-
ing, strong, healthy, active and Zero

was made five years ago. OF the

that the point was not to make the eli

make your animal adapt itself to the

there is no more tuberculosis in the
park. In five years there has not been
a single death from this disease.
