MUCH PROGRESS MADE
IN FIGHT AGAINST
TUBERCULOSIS
Especial to The sentinell

Washington. Feb. 3.-Interest in
The anti-tuberculosis campaign now
being waged throughout the United
States is evidenced by the fact that
in the year 1903, So new anti-tuber-
culOsis associations were formed. 1873
tuberculosis sanatoria and hospitals
were established, and 81 tuberculosis
dispensaries were opened. Compar-
ed with previous years, this is the
best record thus far made in the
fight against consumption in this
country.
During the year 1903, forty-three
more associations for the prevention
of tuberculosis were formed than
during the previous twelve months,
and siNty-two more hospitals and
sanatoria We're established. On Jan
uary /. 1910, there were in the Unit
ed States 1874 anti-tuberculosis asso-
Citations. $50 hospitals and tubercu-
losis sanatoria and 2G5 special tuber-
'culosis dispensaries.
During the year that has passed,
the sanatoria and hospitals of this
country treated over 81 900 patients,
giving a total of nearly 100000
hospital days treatment. OF the 81
600 patients treated. about one-half
were discharged as improved to
greater or less extent. and a large
percentage of the incipient cases
were discharged as cured Altogeth-
er there are nearly 10000 hospital
beds provided in the entire United
States for tuberculosis patients, or
about one bed for every 80 patients.
The 3S6 associations have 10000
members and are contributing close
to million dollars every year for the
fight against tuberculosis. The 265
dispensaries treated during the year
over 10000 patients. who made over
500, 900 visits.
If the year that has passed has
been record-breake in point of
numbers, it has also broken many
records in point of interest which IL
has aroused. Never before have so
many different groups been working
for one common end, At the present
time. schools. womens clubs, labor
unions. churches, children's organ
izations. state legislatures, municipal
bodies, insurance companies. frater-
nal organizations, bill posters. lay
men and doctors OF every creed and
color are all banded together In one
effort to rid this country of consump-
ton.

one of the most enjoyable ses-
sions held in many months by
the local lodge, Knights of
Pythias was held last night and
never did more enthusiasm pre-
vail at "A lodge meeting in this
city.
One OF the most important
steps taken last night was the
chartering of "a special train to
take at least 40 members of the
local lodge to the big district
convention to be held at Paonia
on February 10th. Any one,
whether member of the order or
not will be privileged to make
the trip to this famous little
town on this train. 1t will be
an ideal time to visit that sec
ton of the country.
The principal cause of enthusiasm
was the report of the committee hav-
ing in charge the production of the
play, Damon and Pythias," which
scored such success on Monday and
Tt esday evenings. This committee
was composed of Messrs. Charles
Gasho. c. II. Robinson and Walter
Walker. Its report showed that the
play was not only an artistic triumph
but financial success.
Resolutions were adopted by un-
animous vote thanking the members
of the lodge. the ladies' and other
friends of the lodge. who took part
in the performance or in the produc-
ton of Damon and Pythias" The
lodge is sincerely grateful to ALL
whether members of the order or not
who contributed to the success of the
play.
The resolutions adopted also pro-
vide that as an evidence of apprecia-
ton, reception shall be given at an
early date in honor of the members
of the caste. 1t is proposed to make
this reception a very delightful af-
fair.
Under the head of the good of the
order many enthusiastic talks were
made, relating mainly to the success
of the play.
Perry holland. of Enid. Okla, for
merly one of Grand functions lead

Awaits the Coming of Dawn 10 sc-
gin His Dash 10 the North.
One installment of Commander
Pearys narrative in Hamptons Maga
zine deals with the wait through the
long arctic night, from the time the
Roosevelt was stalled In the Ice until
the coming of the dawn and the dash
for the pole. Commander Peary gives
a graphic picture OF how the little ex.
pedition spent the tedious hours Of
darkness building the sledges, hunt.
ing game, constructing igloos, making
scientific observations. To keep the
men from brooding In the unaccus.
toned dark, each was given heavy
burden Of work to accomplish. There
is a form Of arctic madness, says
Peary, called piblokto.
Aside from rheumatism and bron.
chial troubles, the Eskimos are fairly
healthy; but the adults are subject to
peculiar nervous affection which
they call piblokto-a form OF hysteria.
Personally l have never known a
child to have piblokto," Commander
Peary says. "Some one among the Es.
kimos would have an attack every day
or two, and one day there were Ave
cases. The immediate cause is hard
to trace, though I believe II Is gener'
ally a brooding over absent or dead
relatives. or fear of the future. The
manifestations OF this disorder are
somewhat startling.

when an Eskimo Ia attacked with
piblokto indoors. nobody pays much
attention. unless the patient should
reach for n knife, or attempt to In
jurc some one. The attack usually
ends in a NJ OF weeping; and when
the patient auiets down. the eyes are
bloodshot, the pulse high and the
whole body trembling for an hour or
no afterwards.
"The welLknown madness among
tho Eskimo dogs is also called piblok
to. Though II does not seem to be In
fectious. the manifestations are simi
lar to those OF hydrophobia. Dogs
suffering from piblokto are usually
shot, and they are often eaten by the
Eskimos."
