count of the terrible outbreak of this
disease which had occurred in
Uganda. particularly on the northern
shores Of Victoria NyanZa.
Indeed, the mortality was so great
that it became imperative to under
take immediate action in order to pre-
vent the natives from being complete
ly wiped out At Entebbe a labora
tory was erected, and here extensive
experiments were carried out whic.
proved the guilt of the glossina pal
pals up to the hilt.
The earlier work seemed to ind
cate that the fly merely acts as a d.
rect transmtter of the parasite. which
appeared to die out in the matter of
a few days if the fly were not nour

work it would appear that the disease
Is much more extensive than was
originally believed. The fly distribu-
ton is still greater. and roughly cor
responds to equatorial Africa and ex-
tends to the tenth northern and south
eIn parallels of latitude.
1t must not, however, be imagined
that the whole Of this vast area is in
volved. On the contrary, most care
full observations have revealed that
the distribution of the glossina palpa-
lis is local. its principal localization
being close to water or water courses
where the banks are covered with
vegetation. 1t is rarely found more
than 80 yards from such spots. The
problem of preventing sleeping sick
The St. Mary banner., 1911-06-03

creases the rrolongation of the infec
tive period almost indefinitely TIC
what extent this period of infectivity
occurs in flies which have sucked
blood is not yet known.
1t is also suggested that in addl-
ton to man the trypanosoma may
pass its existence in the bodies OF
other vertebrates such as the croco-
die according to Koch, and various
wild herbivorous animals according
to others. In the last year or two the
very important doubt has also been
raised as to whether glossina palpalis
is the exclusive carrier of the human
trypanosomes. Thus cases OF sleep
ing sickness have occurred in the val
ley of the Loangwa, tributary OF the
Zambesi in northeastern Rhodesia
Up to the present glosina palpalis has
not been found there. the main tsetses
being G. morsitans and u. fusca
which hitherto have been exculpateo
as carriers of trypanosoma gamblense
A new expedition is proceeding 70

subject and the whole question or pos
sible spread of sleeping sickness IN
consequence of the construction or the
Rhodesia- -Katanga junction railway
from the Broken Hill mine in north
ern Rhodesia to the Congo State iron
tier and beyond.
Down to 1902 all kinds Of theories
were rife as TO the nature Of sleeping
sickness. but since this year we nave
witnessed the results of the comblna
ton of scientific and epidermioiogical
observations. The cause OF the dls'
ease is known-its method OF propa
cation in part at any rate. Inc pre-
ventiye plans hitherto undertaken are
in the right direction even II not SO
complete as was supposed. The geo.
graphical distribution of tsetse flies
and sleeping sickness is being rapidly
determined. What still wants solution
are the studies on the more detailed
life histories of the flies and the try
panosomes and synthetic remedies for
the cure of the unfortunate victims OF
the disease.
These studies are not merely or
scientific or humane interest but OF
vast commercial importance IN con-
nection with the development OF equa
torial Africa.
The St. Mary banner., 1911-06-03

ness thus appeared to be of relatively
simple solution. There were two as
poets to the case-first the infection
of human beings by the fly, and, sec
Ondly. the infection of the fly from
infected human beings
1t was considered, therefore, that
the disease could be stayed If, first
the chances of exposure to the fly
were diminished, and, secondly, if the
fly were prevented from being infect
ed by removing the sick from the fly
area. An elaborate experiment of this
kind was made on the northern shore
Of Lake Victoria. Along the whole
lake shore, from Buddhu to the Ripon
Falls, the natives were removed, the
sick were segregated into camps. the
holdings were evacuated and burnt,
md the banana plantations were al
lowed to go to waste. The willing CO.
operation of the chiefs in this tre-
nendous task is complete proof of
he extraordinary hold the disease has
sot on the native population.
he sick had been conveyed various
emedies sent out from Europe were
ried. but with little success. 1t is
conceded on all hands that the patient
with definite evidence of sleeping
sickness upon him is doomed. The
clearing of the lake shore was made
on the basis of the view that the
tsetse fly does not remain infective
or long period. and it was hoped
hat when the infective period was
over the shores of the lake could
again be populated. Recent advances
have shown, however. that this hope
IS not to be realized, and that, indeed,
the prophylaxis of sleeping sickness
is much more complicated task than
was originally supposed.
On the extension of sleeping sick
ness into German East Africa a COM
mission of experts, headed by Robert
Koch, went out and studied the dis
ease on the spot, Towards the end of
1908 Kleine made the important dis
covery that after a latent interval
tsetse fly which had sucked the blood
of an infected man could remain in
fective for very prolonged period

gle had been glorious for America on
the water and humiliating on the land
The battle of New Orleans was fought
after peace had been made. Since
that time the United States and Eng
land have lived in peace that has
been proved substantial by several in
cidents, notably the Wilkes affair,
which, were the nations not genuinely
desirous of maintaining pacific rela-
tions, might easily have brought on
armed encounters.
Unquestionably the attitude of Great
Britain in 1898 caused a revulsion of
popular feeling in this country and re-
lieved many minds of an inborn or
heedlessly cultivated hatred and fear
of her. Before that time there had
been a praiseworthy effort to make
school histories less bitterly partisan
than they had been. This movement
has made great headway since the
war with Spain. Definite attempts to
increase the good feeling not only be-

have met with decided encourage
ment.
