ANTITOxIN SAVING
 HUNDREDS YEARLY

WASHINGTON, May 9.-Stah, tics have just been compiled by D. John s. Fulton, secretary general oi the Fifteenth International Congress on Hygiene and Demography. show. ing that the lives of s0O,O00 childre, were saved in the United State. alone within the ten years between 1900 and 1910 by the use of diph. theria antitoxin. How many to, were spared from death from ,h, same disease in the different eoun. tries of Europe within the same dc. cade, can only be guessed, but i, is known the number reached we'll into the hundreds of thousands.
 The statistics were prepared n answer to the question whether tn, United States has derived any bene. fit from past international congre,. ses on hygiene and demography and as an introduction to the Fifteenth International Congress. which will be held in this city, under auspices of the Government of the United States, September 2 to 2S. Prof Won Behring discovered his diph theria antitoxin in 1891. and at the Tenth International Congress in Budapest in 1894. the value of his discovery was confirmed. Three American delegates came home with the news. The next year very little antitoxin, very expensive, came over from Germany and France. The Massachusetts Board of Health and the Health Department of New York City soon began to make antitoxin for use by local physicians. The census report in 1900 showed that diphtheria mortality of the registra. ton area had fallen from o7S to 45.2 per 100000 between 1890 and l9oO The Census report for 1910 showed further decline to 2l4 per loO,OOO persons living.
 A review of other earlier Con. sresses on Hygiene and Demography shows that the history of municipal hygiene in Italy dates from the fourth Congress at Turin: the Fifth Congress, Geneva, 1882, led to the foundation of the Federal Bureau of Health of Switzerland; the first chapter in colonial hygiene was writ len after the Sixth Congress in The Hague; Vienna eventually was who'll ly transformed as a result of hygiene reforms growing out of the Seventh Congress; the Ninth Congress in London, 1891. opened the era of les islation for the health of wage-earn- CTS, in which England still holds leadership.
 And even greater results are anti cipated from the Fifteenth Interna ''onal Congress on Hygiene and Demography, in connection with which il is expected to standardz' hygienic procedure in all of th' states of the United States, and it bring the entire country within thu registration area. so that the all-im portant vital statistics may every where he nres.r,,.J

wv young pitcher who has
such tremendous speed and
other promising points that he has

les as Bobby Wallace, George Sto-

the front as a pitching star who
will supersede both Walter john

When any ball player speaks of
pitcher as having more" than
another boxman, the expression
covers every point in pitching, in
Guiding a swifter ball. superior
curves. more deceptive change of
pace, better control and everything

That lavish praise heaped on
Baumgartner was given him while

Still Johnson was not the re-

not give Baumgartner an equal
