LEISHMAN TO SUCCEED HILL

John G.. A. Leishman was proposed
to the German government by Wash

The United States asked whether
the appointment of Mr.. Leishman. VINO

kaiser's government, through Count
Won Bernstorff, the German ambassa-
dor at Washington. Mr.. LRishman's

Emperor William, who was touring In
the grand duchy OF Mecklenberg. EN-
peror William, Immediately on receiv-

COMMISSIONER OF PATENTS

Edward Bruce Moore, commissioner
OF patents in Washington, came promi-
nently into the public eye the other
day when the one millionth United
States patent was issued.
Mr.. Moore has worked his way up
from the ranks. He entered the patent
office as assistant examiner in 1889,
and from that time served in various
capacities until he was made commits
sioner, in June, 1907. He has spent
~twenty-eight years n the government

ENCOURAGEMENT CUP WINNER

Charles T. Weymann. winner OF the
prize cup at the Gordon-Bennett avla-
tion race, was the sole American rep
r~esentative in this tie principal inter
national speed contest of the year.
Weymann was born in Haiti twenty
two years ago, and has lived practic-
ally all his life in France. He is much
more at home speaking French than
English. Called upon to respond to a
number of fiattering compliments that
were showered upon him at an in
formal dinner after the race, the vic
torious American, after much hesita-
ton, replied with the one word "Merci."
He is not a Don Quixote of the air,
but has held records for speed, pas
senger-carrying and cross-country
flights. On his wonderful overland
flight from Paris, for ESQ miles to
Clermont-F errand, only dense fog pre-
vented him from fulfilling the condi.

A CUBAN MALCONTEN7

Juan Gualberto Gomez is a Cuban
malcontent who has been conspir1ng
with others to have President Gomez
impeached and to make a c~o-consplra-
tor, V~ice-President Zayas, governor OF
Cuba under American suzerainty. 1t
Is unlikely that he will succeed.
A little over ter years ago the
United States undertook a costly war
to free Cuba and when after some
years of self-government the Cubans
failed in the primary purposes Of all
governments-to ecu the safety of
life and property-this country was
forced to intervene. When the last
Of our soldiers after the period Of
occupation left the island the state
ment was made on the floor Of our ma

States were again called upon to in

plotting is going on In the island and.

Of bringing about United States inter-

odd fact that many Of the more ia

AN AMTI-FEvER SERUM.

Dispatches from San Francisco
tell OF experiments of deep in.
terest to the medical profession
that are being made at the
Southern Pacific hospital in that city,
where patients have been inoculated
with an anti-fever serum which it is
confidently predicted will revolutions
ize the treatment of fever cases. The
discovery of the serum is credited to
DIR. August Francis Schaefer of Ba-
kersfield and is said to have been the
result of long laboratory work.
Those who accept the efficacy of
the serum declare that with its use
fever may be eradicated as decisiyely
as cut may be healed with the aid
of a stypic stick.
The principle of this treatment is
that bacteria throw off certain sub
stances while growing poisons exuded
to preserve the organisms life. 1t was
dations could be formed into a serum
capable of injection into the human
system affected by disease caused
by like bacteria it would have the eff
feet of Immediately arresting the bac-
teria's growth.
Working on this principle he inocu-
lated nine Southern Pacific Hospital
patients suffering with pneumonia
with a liquid extract made from meta
bolic products given off by the pneu-
monia germ in progress of growth. IN
every case, it is asserted, the patient
was cured, several of the cures being
within stwenty-four hours of the ser.
um's injection. A tuberculosis patient
was pronounced cured within four
days after the Schaefer remedy had
been applied. Similar success with ty-
phoid is reported. While some of the
more conservative physicians will not
agree that the serum has the power
claimed for it, all agree that some of
the results of its use are marvellous,
and IL other cases continue to improve
under treatment It's virtues viii be
Endorsed by all.

THE DoLLlvER MEMORIAL.

The Dolliver Memorial Association
said in an announcement published In
The Gate City that 1T has been de-
to make Sunday, February 9Th ltoday)
the Dolliyer Memorial Sunday, for
collections in the churches for the
Dolliver memorial monument. So far
as this section of the state is con-
cerned the Burlington Hawk-Eye ques-
tons whether at has been decided by
the churches of the country to take
the action indicated The purpose OF
the Dolliver Memorial Association to
raise fund for monument to the
memory Of the distinguished Iowa SEN
ator is endorsed as commendabIe
one to which the citizens will feel it
a pleasure to contribute; as also TO
a monument III honor of Senator Al
lison; but
1t is not apparent why the churches.
as organizations, should be called up
on to take such action. They are
generally overloaded with systematic
collections for religious, educational
and charitable work. The calls for
monuments to honor Iowa's two dis
tinguished senators pertain to the
citizenship as a whole, including both
the church attendants and non-attend-
ants, and the funds ought to be raised
without appealing to denominational
or class associations
The point made by the Hawk-Eye Is
well taken The churches have quite
enough to do to raise money for their
ordinary expenses and beneyolences
