The Law Must Protect Our Women.
Coast Beacon.

Coast Beacon.
An attempt was made in the
Louisiana legislature to close the
courts against women, in the matter
Of redress for personal violence. The
beastly lust Of man is sought to be
defended by testimony that his vic
tim was already unchaste. The Pic
ayune says IF a woman is TO be de-
prived of the protection of the law in
Louisiana until she can prove her
character while men of the most de
oraved habits have laws made for
them, it would be the duty of every
honest man to crrry his woman out
of such country" No woman S
chastity can be proved otherwise
than by the testimony of those who
know.

SYMPTOMS Of Zee N0OKWORN EIsEASE.

The Mississippi State Board Of
Health is arousing the people relative
to the Importance OF graduating this
| disease. Thirty-five thousand people
we're treated during the past year.
For many generations hook worm
disease has made insidious strides ia
the tropical and semi-tropical zones
of the world, and the stamping out
of the disease in Southern Eurone,
as well as in our Southern States
has become a serious problem. Ru-
raj life is a predisposing cause of
hookWorm disease because of poor
sanitary conditions around the home
and school house, The people Of
small towns are often heavily infect
ed for the same reason. The disease
is found during any period of life, IN
both sexes and among all classes. Tt
is absent wherever the sanitary ar
engagements are such as to prevent
its spread.
This disease is caused by a small
round worm which measures about
half an inch IN length and has the
diameter of an ordinary hairpin. It
enters the human body in a stage at
which it is invisible to the naked eve,
usually through the skin, but it may
enter through the mouth. The eggs
of the hookworm are laid in the In
testine of the human being and on
passing from the body they hatch in
from twenty four to forty eight
hours when the conditions of mois-
,tnre, soil and temperature are favor
able.
When people live under poor SAM
tary conditions these young worms
are found ia the soil. A barefooted
boy or girl walking over such pol
luted or infected soil may contract
the disease. The small unse u
larvae of the worm work their way
through the skin in about thirty
minutes and on gaining access to the
blood pass through the body finally
reaching the bowels and here it
grows. and reaches alaturity. This
parasite becomes attached to the lin
ing Of the bowel and sucks blood and
also secretes a poison which is alb
sorbcd by the body.
The initial symptom Of hookworm
disease is ground itch. The symp-
toms following ground Itch will
depend upon the number of worms
present and the strength of the indi-
vidual. The nun Der OF hook worms
in a person infected vary from one or
two to several thousand They Go
not multiply n the body
In mild case of hookworm disease
there NAV De no physical changes in
the person showing the presence OF
the disease and there may also be no
special symptoms TIE person looks
more or less healthy, may have a
good color, is vel developed, etc
However, in many OF the mild cases,
the person suffers regularly from IN
digestion or dyspepsia, may have
headaches, heart-bura. pains IL the
stomach. poor appetite and gener-i
al bad feeling.

FINALLY IDENTIFIED AFTER
ESTATE. HAD BEEN sETTLED
Mournsd as Dead by Relatives, Prop.
srty Was Seized and Dividsd-later
10 Recognized While Ward Of County
Had Assumed Another Name and
Denied His Identity.

Muscatine, Aug. "a strange case
of lost memory. dual personality
a "Kimmer' of a case to put it ex-
actly. has developed in Muscatine in
the settlement of the estate Of Isaac
Burgess, alias David Baker, who for
four years was a ward OF the county.
Baker died here in poverty. In JEFF
ferson county, Iowa. after seven
wears. absence his brother procured
court order pronouncing him legally
dead and took possession of his es-
tate Twelve years ago Burgess, who
Nac prosperous Iowa farmer. decided
to go back to Ohio for a visit. He was
never heard Of again and was mourned
for dead. Five years ago there arifteo
into Muscatine man with a peace1uI
unruffled countenance who said his
name was David Baker. He said he haa
no relatives in the world. Later he be-
came unable to work and was taken
to the county farm as a ward OF the
county. He lived there for four years
and then died. Before his death man
visiting here from Jefferson county
met him and recognized him as the
missing Isaac Burgess and accosted
him by name The man said that he
never had heard Of such person and
denied that he was Burgess.
His identity. however, was estab-
lished. 1t is believed that he suffered
an injury while en- route to Ohio-he
never reached there, by the way-and
lost his memory. He took the name OF
David Baker and drifted with the tide.
Finding that he was a man Of means
Muscatine county put in claim iof
$424 for his board and keep during the
four years he was at the county farm.
Administrators at Jefferson county and
at Muscatine called the attention OF
the court to his dual life in their final
report which was filed with the county
clerk yesterday and asked that the
court take cogniZance of the same in
allowing a claim Of the county. The
case is one of the strangest In the an
nails of the court here.

FRICTION IN NEW PARTY.
Misunderstanding and Local Jealous
les Crop Out At Dss Moinss.


Special to Times Republican.
Des MONIES. Aug. "a meeting is to
be held in Des Moines this evening of
a few of the leading advocates Of the
new progressive party. not especially
to organize but to confer and TO ar
range for a meeting at which Bull
Moose club will be organized for Des
Moines. Some of the persons who are
in the movement are wonderfully en-
thusiastic about it and declare openly
their conviction that as soon as a club
Is organized it Will attract general at
tention and thousands will flock to it's
membership. They anticipate that it
will be only a short time before the
progressive party has in Iowa demon
strated it's ability to carry the state
against Wilson and others who may be
in the running in November.
Some of the delegates and visitors to
the Chicago convention have returned
and ell are immensely pleased with the
situation. Nearly all the Iowa delegates
and alternates were present at the
convention. They had a series Of meet
ings In Chicago. all harmonious and all
looking to making good fight in Iowa
for the principles of the new party.
They arranged to have headquarters
opened here soon and Carl FRANKIE will
direct affairs. Organization of counties
Will be commenced at once and district
meetings will be arranged
1t Is evident there is going to be
more or less friction in the work of
those who have started in with the
new party. largely because Of lack of
understanding as to the main questions
at issue and because OF jealousy as to
local leadership. Clubs will be formed
to take care OF the situation and get
the members together and series Of
meetings will be held as early as pos
sible.

denounced the nomination of Taft and
indicated that he would follow the ex-
ample Of Senator LaFo.lette in cup

Many progressive republicans in the
house will not choose between Taft
and Roosevelt till after the primaries
