Some years ago l suffered from

India was the original home of the
bungalow, the native name for this
type of house being bangla, which
signifies country house of one floor
only. On account of the increasing
popularity of the bungalow style Of
building In our own country 1t will be
Of interest to note some Of the spe-
cial characteristics associated with
these structures In the land of their
origin.
In India 1t Is the Europeans who
live in the bungalows, which are built
in all sizes and styles, according to
the taste and wealth of the owner
The single ground-hoor plan Is fire.
Quently departed from by the addition
Of rooms utilizing the under-roof space
on the second floor. Invariably, how
ever, the bungalow is surrounded with
a veranda, the roof OF which affords a
shelter from the sun, though in Amer
lea the veranda Is often confined to
one end of the house or run only part
of the way around. In the chief cities
of Calcutta, Madras and Bombay some
of the bungalows assume the proper
lions Of palatial residences, but
In the smaller towns they are
of more modest pretensions. In gen.
eral, they are provided with exterior
Offices or buildings to accommodate
the large retinue of servants common
In Indian life.

jerome Also Scores Jury Which De-
cIared Robin Sane

New York, Feb. 3.-The verdict of
a jury which declared Joseph G. Ro-
bin, the indicted banker, sane, was
denounced as an insult to the profess
siOnal alienist at meeting Of the Sec
ton on neurology and psychiatry, at

w. T. Jerome, who represented
Robin, addressed the meeting and
told the alienists that their profession
as we'll as his had been flouted.

The jury which found Robin sane
did so contrary to the testimony OF

by Jerome is Edward Swami. He
complimented the jury on the verdict
as proving the efficacy of the jury

the torrent.

Thousands Of Victims Of Plague
Are Burned In Hardin
HOSPITAL PEOPLE ARE DYING
Doctors, Nurses and OrderIies Cannot
Escape Disease-Foreign Serums
Prove effective-Stricken Ones
Freeze-Those Engaged In Sanitary
Work Are Masked and Bandaged

Hardin, Manchuria, Feb. al
ready nearly 5000 bodies of victims OF
the plague have been burned or buried
in the outskirts of Hardin.
Forty eight hundred of these came
from the Chinese town and 1000 from
the Russian quarter.
Yesterday sixteen stacks of collins
and seven pits filled with bodies and
oiled logs blazed outside the town.
The mortality among the physicians
and the hospital attendants is high +,
considering the means taken for theil
protection, and doctors, nurses anc
Orderlies are succumbing to the dis
ease.
The sanitary authorities hope soor
to test serum of their own manufac-
ture from the Manchurian bacilli, as
the foreign importations have proven
ineffective.
The happenings in Europe in the
seventh century, when the "blacb
death" swept through the country, are
being repeated here.
Fears bordering On panic have
gripped the Chinese. At first they de-
fed the medical officers, and KEEP
their sick and dead hidden for the
purpose Of carrying out the ancient
funeral rites.
Now it is brother against brother
father against son. The stricken ones
are forced into the streets, to starve
or freeze, or to fall perishing from the
swift and deadly attack the plague
makes upon its victims.
Passersby avoid them, but some
times those engaged in sanitary work
masked and bandaged, reach them be-
fore they die and cart them to the pes
house, or if they are dead to The
funeral pyres.
Not infreQuently an outcast is to be
seen kneeling and making his las
obeisance before the grave of an an.
cestOr, in sight of a pile of bodies
of which he is soon to become one.
