Is Insect Cause
Of Dread Pellasra,

Spartanburg S. c., Oct. 4.--For
the purpose of investigating the
theory that pellagra is caused by an
insect, W. V. King, an entomologist
of the United States department of
agriculture, came to SparteD5urg,
yesterday and will remain here in
definitely. pursuring his researches.
The insect theory was first pro-
pose by DR.. Sambon, of the London
school of tropical medicine in 1905
He expressed the belief that the
species of fly, commonly known as
black flies, of which the bnffalo
gnat is the most familiar local
species, carried a parasite which
produced pellagra.

To EnLiven the Campaign.

Atlanta, Oct. Sit seems that
the Georgia public is to get a little
action in the gubernatorial cam
paign after all, and that the voting
poblic will be given an opportunity
to hear the claims of Messrs Pope
Brown and Richard B. Russell ex-
plotted from the stump.
The Pope Brown headquarters has
given notice that it will condnct a
speaking campaign throughout the
state, following in the wake of the
local option orators who are taking
the stump for Judge Richard B.
Russell.
1t is believed that the avoWed in
tention of both sides to have the
state we'll stumped will inject new
interest into the campaign.

NUMBER 1875
Corn Meal Given
as Pellagra Cause.
Tennessee Health Report Gives
Summary of Dread Disease.

Nashville, Tenn, Oct. 4.-That IS
per cent of the victims of pellagra
in Tennessee use corn meal, is the
report of the specialist, appointed
to investigate the malady in the
state. The report was submitted
to the state board of health yester-
day
The report shows that the disease
must have been prevalent in the
state IS years ago although it was
not generally known until an out
break occurred at the Baptist Or
phanage in this city. 1t further
shows that women have, within the
past few years, proved to be the
more susceptible to the disease
than men, as nearly one half of the
patients examined were housewives
and two-thirds of the total number
of patients examined were females.
The married, too, are specially sus-
ceptible as 204 patients out of 316
are married.
Another interesting fact featured
by the report is that the large ma
jority of the patients examined
lived in poor surroundings. Dug
wells supplied the water that
quenched the thirst of 1853 of those
examined, mosquitoes and gnats
had bitten 223, 269 had used cotton
products in cooking.

In Memory Of Enoch
Gurley DornlinY.

On Friday September 18th, 1911,
death called again upon our time
honored family of Dorminys and
youth gave up noble boy, Enoch
Gurley Dorminy, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
E. w. J. Dorminy, who a few days
before his death was attacked by a
rising in his nose, which, despite
medical skill, speedily brought
death
In but his twentieth year as what
manner of a young man shall we
remember him? To parents obedl-
emit and devoted. In the home
cheerful and companionable, ever
useful and performing his part
faithfully and well. To his friends
true. Neighborly indeed for one so
young. Ripening into manhood ne
became active in all that improved
his immediate section. Splendid
and portly in physique, he was pos
sessed with many characteristic at
fractions that won for him in his
short day love of playmates and
admiration of associates, loved de-
vOtedly by kindred in life and Wor-
SHIPPED by them in sickness and
more now in death
If we call him he does not
answer. If we look for him we do
not see him. If we reach forth to
shake we do not feel the warmth OF
his friendly hand. Enoch is not
here. He is risen. AS we think of
this dear boy, void of intend to sin,
as we knew on earth, let us con-
template him in a brighter world
where now he may be in the fullest
understanding of God and enjoying
blessed fellowship with the angels
of our loved ones gone before, for
we believe in Gods promise that
such as Enoch are gathered on his
right hand.
Father, mother, brothers and Sis
ters, is it not better that he should
90 first to lead you as you should
90, than leave him here in world
+ tasks and trials, young and with
abroad life before him? 1t is well
as God planned it.
While the pillows of sorrow dash
against your hearts and all seems
lost, call on Him for strength to en-
dure whom His disciples called up
an that stromy night upon the deep
and who, awakening, stretched
forth His God-hand and commanded
the seas to be still and they were
still. and as they pursued their jour
ney safely with Jesus on board, so
may you push on safely to the other
shore with your Captain and
Enoch's strong angel hand beckoine
YOU home. A Frlend.

AiIbrook Library, Valued at $500.

Mt. Vernon, Dec. 15.-Probably few
announcements OF gifts to Cornell Col
lege have been greeted with more en-
thusiasm than was that Of DR.. J. b.
Albrook's generous bestowal of his pri-
vate library valued at more than $1,000.
to the Latin department of Cornell Col
lege. Prof Evelyn Riley deserves much
praise for the great EFFORT she has made
toward securing nucleus for library
in this department and the success
which has crowned her efforts In that
direction are matters Of congratulation.
DR.. Albrook, as 10 characteristic OF
him. has more than done his shore by
endowins the librory with $1,000 to be
paid in ten yearly payments OF $loo
each and the interest from this sum
will, in connection with other gifts
which have until now been conditional.
be used to maintain and enlarge the
library. TIE gift Is a generous and
appreciated one in itself. but 1t will
doubtless be ,he means Of stimulating
other donations to the Latin depart
ment. which has until now been with
out library.
From the very nature of the place
that Latin holds in the college cur
riculum and in education generally. this
department should have been endowed
long ago.
