Buffalo Gnat Blamed for Pellagra

The buffalo gnat has been fixed upon
by Henry Garman, government bac-
teriologist and entomologist. as the
cause of the mysterious disease.
pellagra, which has been spreading IN
the mountain regions of Kentucky.
Mr.. Garman has been conducting in
vestigations into the cause of the dis
ease in Whitley county, where the
pellagra cases are most numerous. and
has been aided in his researches by
DR.. Grim, q government expert.
Just how the gnat communicates the
disease is not known, but both scisn-
lists believe they are on the right
track and eventually will find cure
for the:disease, which so far has baff1ed
physicians who have had it under
observation. The buafflo gnat exists
in great numbers all through the
South.
Several new cases of pellarga have
developed in the mountain districts,
but no new victims have been founC
in the three State asylums.

DEATHS.

Mrs. ANNA Daugherty Massie,
aged "a years, died at her home on
Vine street Friday afternoon Sat 4:3O
O'Clock after a protracted illness of
uraemic poison.
Mrs. Massie has been in declining
health for about a year, and two
months ago suffered an attack from
which she never recovered A week
before her death it was realized she
was beyond the aid of medical skill.
Thursday she was seized with convul-
sions and her son, MIR. VIM. G. Massie,
and other relatives were summoned to
her bedside. Friday she was conscious
at intervals during the day and CON
| versed with those about her.
In spite of her advanced age and
prior to the illness which terminated
| in her death, Mrs. Massie displayed
unusual vitality and was considered
one of the most active of our aged
citizens.
! Mrs. Massie was the daughter Of the
late Thomas and Elizabeth Daugberty
and was born near Millersburg. Early
| in life she united with the Methodist
church but after her marriage to Mr..
w. w. Massie she withdrew her
membership and joined the Presby-
terian church.
Being of retiring disposition Mrs.
Massie devoted much of her time in
her home. She was a woman of a
charitable nature and readily respond
ed to appeals in sickness and distress.
She was devoted to missionary work
and for a number of years kept a
missionary in the field.
In 1857 when she was eighteen years
of age she was united in marriage to
Mr.. w. w. Massie. Together they
went to sekeeping in the property
now occupied by Mrs. James Early
wine on Main street. Later they
purchased the property at the corner
of Vine street and Scott avenue upor
which was erected the home in which
she died.
Mrs. Massie reared to manhood TIVE
sons, Mr.. Wallace Massie, who died a
Poughkeepsie College at the age of g
years, and Mr.. VIM. Massie, nf Paris
who survives.
The funeral services were held Fri
day afternoon from her late residenc
at o'clock and were conducted by he
pastor, Rev. DR.. B. M. Shive. Tn
remains were consigned to the famil
mausoleum in the Paris cemetery.
The following were the pall-bearers

LEAKING SCHOONER GETS IN
AFTER THREE WEEKS STRUGGLE

The schooner o. M. Kellogg. was
off port at about half-Dast six on
Saturday night, but did not enter
until yesterday morning She had an
exceedingly anxious time across from
Eureka, as she reached here in a
badly leaking condition. Fortunately,
the weather was all in her favor, but
there could have been a little moro
wind. which would have reduced the
amount of anxiety undergone By those
on board, including Captain Ian
quist's wife.
The little vessel left Eureka twenty
eight days ago with 100000 feet Of
lumber consigned to Levers &c Cooke.
Twelve days out she sprang a leak.
and the water poured in at the rate
of four inches an hour. All efforts, Of
course, were made to keep her dry,
but these were unavailing, and soon
it was found that the vessel was leak
ing at the rate Of six inches an hour.
The crew worked necessarily at the
task of trying to reduce the amount
of water. and efforts were made to
locate the leak, hut all without sue
cess. Unfortunately, in one way.
there was NO wind, and the vessel had
