TAKERS FAXED CONFESSION.

Persisting in his role of profes- sional impostor, Dr. Cook, perjured as he has been proven to be in con- nection with the two only events mich have IrouSnt him before the public, has yet been able to fool the supposedly astute manager of Hamp- tons Magazine, and that reputable @ magazine will doubtless help him to fool still further certain percentage of the American public.
 Prefacing long article which is supposed to describe his Arctic wandering with a statement that he is not absolutely sure whether he reached the pole or not this shame less sneak-thief of another's honor, adds:
 T am willing to startle the world if by so doing I can get an oppor- tunity to present my case. By my case I mean not my case as geogra phical discoverer, but my case as a man. If, after reading my story, you say, Cook is sincere and honest, half crazed by months of isolation and hunger, he believed that he reach ed the pole; he is not faker,' then I shall be satisfied"
 There is mighty little chance for Cook to "startle" the world with anything more that he can say if he lives to attain the century mark, for he has already been accorded the palm of having attained the zenith of fame as the most monumental

Faurot recently centered the city's
attention on his department by bring
ing about the confession of Caesar
Celia. alias Charles Crispi, for burg
larry, on the strength of thumb print
Identification. Celia laughed when he
first heard that Faurot would try to
prove his guilt by showing that 1t
was his thumb print found on the
broken window of the robbed flat,
but SO cleverly did Faurot work up
his case that Celia soon abandoned
the nice alibi that he had prepared
and confessed
Faurot is elated over Cella's con
fession, as he says it will go a long
ways toward removing the skepti-
cism that exists in the minds of a
lot Of people who ought to know bet
ter regarding the efficacy of finger
print Identification. Grand juries in
the past have been loath to indict on
the strength of such evidence, but
Faurot is hopeful that hereafter Of
fetal bodies will take cogniance of
the irrefutability of such evidence.
Finger print Identification is the
best in the world" Faurot says.

species ny very far. It is doubtful II
any can travel greater distance on
their wings than a halt mile.
They breed in all sorts of accumu-
lations OF standing water. Two spe-
cies even breed in brackish sea wa
ter.
Summing up, the booklet says that
there are now three recognized
means OF warfare against malaria,
the mechanical protection of indivi-
duals from the bites of malaria; the
destruction of the anopheles mosqui-
toes in any or all stages of their
growth, and the systematic treatment
of the population of a malarious local
ity with quinine until the disease has
been stamped out and no parasites
remain for the mosquitoes TO carry.
The first of these methods is large
ly a matter of personal prevention,
and consists in thoroughly screening
all habitations of human beings, and,
in the summer time, of wearing
wells and gloves when out of doors at.
ter shutdown. This method was syste-
matically enforced at the stations on
the Italian railroads some years since
and resulted in very great reduc-
ton IN the malaria rate.
The second measure, that of de-
stroying the anopheles. has been
practiced with admirable success in
Cuba, Panama. West Afri a. Egypt
and India Oil IS poured on all stand
ing water.
The quininization method has been
used by the Germans and Italians 1t
consists in the distribution of free
quinine to all laborers and TO the poor
living in malarious localities. The
quinine is prepared in its most agree
able form, as confectionery, princi-
pally IS chocolates, the latter con-
tanning tannate of quinine. which il
not SO bitter as the ordinary variety.
/ In Italy, by means of mechanical
protection, the malaria rate was re
duced from s. TO 20 per cent, to II
per cent but there 1t held. The quini-
nization method was then introduced,
/ and the general malaria rate has By
this means been reduced to less than
\ 4 per cent.

THEY BREED MALARIA
ouInIne VIII XIII the Fever Germs
If Used, at the Proper Time
and Taken Prop
erIy.

The summer vacationist needn't
fear the nefarious mosquito, or its
concommitant pest, malaria. if he
reads and digests what Uncle Sam,
in the person of Dr. L. o. Howard,
of the department of agriculture, has
to say about them in a little booklet
tjust issued by the department of agri-
couture.
The pamphlet was issued in re
Jsponse to strong demands from farm
ers in certain sections of the South,
where malaria has long been bane.
The summer boarder at the seashore
or axes can probably get a good deal
of information out of 1t.
There are many localities in the
United States where malaria is preva-
lent, and some in which the exist
ence of the disease in an aggravated
form is a serious barrier TO agricul-
tural or industrial development. Ag-
riculturally speaking, the delta lands
OF Mississippi and adjoining states
are the richest in the whole world,
with the possible exception of the
delta of the Nile, and yet, on account
of the extraordinary prevalence of
malaria, they are sparsreIy settled
and land prices are low.
Investigation by government SCENT
lists and others has demonstrated that
the malaria parasite is only trans
United by certain species of mosqui-
toes 1t has always been known that
malaria was most prevalent in the
vicinity of marshes, and it was for
merly supposed that the air or okla
lations from these marshes produced
the disease. Parasites OF malaria,
however, have not been found by in
vestigations, either in the water or air
of the marshes, nor in decaying vege-
tation. nor in the soil, although they
have been diligently sought Attempts
TO produce infection by these agencies
have always failed. The mosquito
which carries the parasites, however
breeds In marshes or in marshy pools
and streams.
Issuing from these breeding places
they enter nearby houses and feed
upon the inmates, mostly at night
biting first one person and then 9th
ers, and living for weeks and months
If an infected person happens to be
present in any of these houses, the
anopheline or germ carrying mosqut
ito, in biting him will also become in
ffected, and, in turn, transmit the par
asite to healthy person
The malarial parasite breeds rap
idly. Although only few may have
been introduced into the blooc
through the beak of mosquito, the,

millions of them may exist At first
when the number is small, an infect
ed person may remain apparently

large enough, he begins to suffer from

The parasites are microscopic ant
one-celled. On being introduced int
the blood, however, each minute or
ganism enters a red blood cell, anc
branches out forming new spores
