TUBERCULOSIS oPEN-AIR CURE.

TUBERCULOSIS OPEN-AIR CURE.
The great war against the white
plague" has had marked results,
chiefly through the employment OF
out-of-door treatment While it is only
comparatively recent that this treat
ment has become general, it has been
advocated for over twenty-five years
right here in philadelphia, and many
persons who suffer from consumption
and are taking the home treatment
sleep in tents or inclosed porches, says
the Philadelphia Capital. Benjamin
Franklin, in his numerous researches,
learned many elemental truths, which
he handed down to posterity in his
writings He declared that disease
does not come from pure or cold air,
but from draughts and the uneven ex-
posure of the person to icy blasts. II
is his theory which is in large meas
ure responsible for the present meth
cd of treating pneumonia patients al
the Jefferson hospital. The ward on
the roof is an innovation and is large
ly in the nature of an experiment. It's
permanency will be decided by the
number of cures effected. So far the
proportion Of recoveries has been SO
great and the fatalities so small that
the physicians in charge hesitate to
give out the figures, lest they be
thought to be exaggerating This is
especially encouraging, because Of the
unusual fatal course SO many cases OF
pneumonia have taken this winter.

TAFT IS AWARDED z
NEW AWARDS, 8 IN ARKANSAS, ~
I'M FLORIDA AND 20 IN
GEORGIA.
TEDDY's CONTESTS FAIL
Indiana Cases May Come Up Before
Board at an Early Date-Vio-
Ience and Fraud Are
Charged.

Chicago, Ill.-Forty- eight dele
gates given to the Taft account by
the Republican national committee in
its decisions in the Arkansas, Florida,
and Georgia contests, makes seventy
two additions to the Taft total.
No cases have been won by the
Roosevelt contestants.
Ten of the Georgia districts, 20
delegates, went to Taft in one blanket
decision, both sides agreeing to their
being decided upon the arguments as
had served in the case of the four
delegates-at-large, which had just been
given to Taft. The two remaining
Georgia districts with their two apiece
soon went the same way.
The cases passed upon were those
Of:
Arkansas-Third, Fourth, Fifth and
Seventh congressional districts, two
delegates each, eight in all. The Sixth
district was not contested; the dele
gates are listed as ''uninstructed."
Florida-The six delegates at large
and all three districts-the entire
state representation, IL in all.
Georgia-The four delegates at
large and all of the 10 congressional
districts, each with it's two delegates,
20 in all.
This clears the docket for the TAX
ing up early this week of the cases
upon which the Roosevelt people are
laying far more stress than upon those
from the South, such cases, for exam
pie, as those from Indiana, which prob
ably will be taken up early.
There still remain, in alphabetical
order before these, the cases of six
delegates at large from Arizona and
two delegates of the Fourth congress
sional district of California.
The Indiana contest cases involve
the four delegates at large and two
each from the First, Third, Fourth
and Thirteenth districts.
In every case thus far decision has
been reached after full hearings of the
facts in the cases; and in only one
instance did the Roosevelt leaders ask
for full test of strength.
In the Fifth Arkansas district where
charges of violence and fraud were
made by both sides, Committeeman
Burnam of Kentucky asked that both
delegations be seated with a half vote
each.
He secured Zen votes for his mo-
ton; those of Knight of California,
Burnam of Kentucky, Wight of Louis
lana, Kellogg of Minnesota, Littauer
representing Flanagan of Nevada,
Duell representing Ward of New
York;, Capers of South Carolina, Thor
son of South Dakota, Loose of Utah,
Rogers of Wisconsin
On roll call, of the others who hith-
erto had usually voted with the anti
Taft contingent, Dupont of Delaware
voted with the Taft people and Lyon
of Texas and Bieber of the District
of Columbia were recorded as pres
ent, but not voting"
Not all of the viva voce votes were
unanimous. Negatives were heard on
many of these, but there was no way
of surely identifying the voices. In
such other cases, when the roll call
was asked for, especially by the Taft
men, it was desired in order that
the committee might go unanimously
on record in favor Of the seating of
the delegates.
