CORE OF TUBERCULOSIS

The story amply confirmed
comes from Paris that Prince
Ludwig of Bavaria. an accomp-
lished physician has entirely cured
of consumption an American girl
prominent in Paris society. Miss De
Garmetin. after she had been
given up by other physicians. The
curious part of it is that the
princely doctor is a great must an
as well as physician and that he
used his music as we'll as his other
treatment to bring about The re-
covery of his patient. The dis
patch says che used 20 play the
violin and the organ l.. inc hours
to his patients.
People will be eager to learn the
particulars of the cure. If the
music was part of the cure, thea
it is new confirmation of the
belief in the wonderf vi power of
the mind but the emotions over
the action of bodily functions. We
should like to hear the explanation
of the prince. Was 1t the rest the
music brought the pate mt? Did
it divert her mind for brooding
over the thought that she was in
curahlly i'll? Was the patient
peculiarly sensitive to music and
did it supply her with a stimulant
more potent than oxygen to her
infamed lungs?
When will We know half the
mysteries connected with our own
lives. The account says that a
great? Vienna consumption
specialist. DR.. Hook, admits the
complete recovery of Miss De
Garmentin. but the Bavarian
physicians resent the interference
OF the royal prince in their profess
sion. Is not that characteristic?
II reminds the writer that one
morning score of years ago
coming down the street he saw the
late DR.. Hamilton standing in
front of his office. Stopping, he
said: What is the matter doctor?
You seem troubled about some
thing this morning?" "Do you
Know" said the doctor. THAT
there are three patients up in the
hospital that are going to die in
spite OF all l can do?" Then he
paused an instant, and then added,
But believe me, they are every
one dying regular" That /.
what Is probably troubling those
Bavarian doctors. The young
lady did not get we'll regular. -

~ The Lorimer Vote
The Commoner.

Mr.. Lorimer holds his seat by a vote
that damns him. II he had any SEN
sitiveness on the subject of official
honor, he would not be content to as
ISOLATE daily with men who have voted
to expel him. Membership in the sem
ate ought to require higher creden-
tials than a verdict OF not guilty by a
divided court When it is remembered
that the senate is strongly Republican:
when it is remembered that Lorimer
is a Republican of long service in
the house and of great influence in
his state, 1t is conclusive proof OF
his guilt that so many Of his own
party and some of it's strongest men
should vote TO unseat him. It must
be remembered. too, that the speeches
in condemnation Of him were delivered
in his presence and by men who must
associate with him If shame does not
drive him to resign. Surely sena-
torial courtesy is put to the test when
members of that body feel constrained
to utter such condemnation as was
spoken against him as he heard un-
bIushingly.
The Democratic party is to be con-
graduated that considerable majority
of its representatives in the senate
voted against Mr.. Lorimer in spite of
the fact that all but one of the Demo-
cratic members of the committee join
ed in report favorable to him. The
party has reason to be proud Of sena-

JUDGE FRY ON
THE SHIP CANAL
INTERVIEW OF FLORIDA MAN
THIRTY YEARS AGO OF INTER
EST TO FLoRIpIANs OF TODAY.

The Florida ship canal across the
peninsular of the state Is not a new
project as may be seen from clipping
from the st. Johns Weekly, OF 1881,
which was edited by Judge NJ. r.
Cooper and which refers to the then
largely agitated move of cutting a ship
canal across the Peninsular of Florida
An extract from the Memphis Advance,
of that year, in speaking of an inter
view which that newspaper had with
Judge H. Fry, of the Florida, Atlantic
& Gulf Ship Canal Company says:
Judge Fry has been in the city for
several days, during which time many
OF the leading citizens have called
upon him to obtain information in re-
gard to the projected enterprise. The
idea Of building a canal across the
Isthmus of Florida is not a new one.
II was suggested many years ago, not
only on ACCOUNT of the vast saving IN
time and distance, but also by the fact
that the navigation of the straits of
Florida Is attended with so much peril
that the reefs of that coast enjoy the
unenviable reputation of having wreck
ed more vessels than any other sea
line upon earth. Surveys were made
by the government in 1924, 1855, 1856
and 1878, and the Mobile Board of
Trade made an examination in 1875.
Although different routes were select
ed the result in each instance demon
strated the practicability of the
scheme. The surveys of 1855 and 1856
were made under the direction of JET
ferson Davis. then Secretary of war.
THE new company was organized
about a year ago. Its capital stock Is
fixed at $40,o0o.00o.
"The route selected for the canal
extends from at or near the mouth OF
st. Johns river, on the Atlantic coast
to the mouth of the Suwannee river,
on the Gulf. The channel OF the st.
Johns win be used for a considerable
distance. necessitating a cut through
of sixty-five miles of land across the
peninsula. 1t is intended to make the
canal 200 feet wide at the top, $50 feet
at the bottom and 80 feet deep. The
estimated cost is $4,000. eco. and the
canal can be completed within three
years.

the present route. It gives New Or
leans and the Gulf ports almost q
direct route to Liverpool, and q
straight course to the Mediterranean.
Judge Fry took up a map on which
the great currents of the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans were marked, and after
pointing out the locations of the pro-
jected ship canals which are intended
to connect the two oceans, said: you
will observe that the great Gulf
stream in the Atlantic. and the grand
western current In the Pacific, seem
designed by the Creator to serve as
aids in transporting the products of
the Mississippi valley to Europe on
the east and Asia on the west. The

will make a circle round the world,
and the great water highway of the
United States flows directly past
Memphis and reaches this circle. with
the accomplishment of these great
projects, the commerce of the Missls-
sippi valley will reach an impetus
which will increase its resources be-
yond the dreams Of the most enthu-
siastic."

tors who recorded their votes against
Lorimer. and it has reason to mourn
that the votes of senators who voted
for Mr.. Lorimer have placed upon
the Democratic party part of the
odium for his retention in what ought
to be the highest legislative body Of
the world. The Republican party
comes out of the contest in better po-
sition that our party, Notwithstanding
the fact that a majority of the Demo-
Gratis voted to unseat, while ma
jority of the Republican party voted
to seat him. The Republicans deserve
the more credit for 1t required more
courage for them to vote against one
of their own party than 1t required for
a Democrat to cast similar vote.
But the fight has not been without
good results. The election of senators
by the people has received an impetus
and fraud has received a rebuke even
IL that rebuke falls short of the se-
verify which 1t deserves. The day of
corruption is passing; the victory for
popular elections is near at hand. Be-
fore two years have elapsed the states
will be voting for the ratification Of
an amendment substituting election
by the people for election by legisla-
ture. Mr.. Lorimer is one Of the last
of his class unless the states In which
the senatorial deadlocks continue fur
nish him company.

seed may be sown any time from
March 15 to August 1. If sown early,
two and possibly three crops may be
secured during the year. Best results
are obtained If planted In rows and

eight hundred pounds of fertilizer con-
