THE WORLDS SANITATION CONGRESS.

The fifteenth annual international congress on
hygiene and demograpny will open its sessions in
Washington tomorrow evening. 1t is one Of the
notable gatherings that this neighborhood of mod
ern world holds and that attest the disposition of
men toward real brotherhood
Sanitation is one of the wonders of the modern
world. Medical and surgical progress, along with
sanitary science, have in two decades covered more
ground than in centuries before. They have as
suaged the horrors of war, and diminished vastly the
perils-in the aggregate, vastly greater-of peace.
There is no more patriotic, unselfsh, selfsacrifcng,
or courageous work than this of the great army of
scientific sanitation that is fighting against disease
ignorance, and pestence. 1t has laid thousand
ghosts Of blind superstition and made men help them
selves to better health and longer life 1t has found
populations in terror of the wrath Of God and shown
them that they had need not to fear divine dis
pleasure, but the buzzing mosquito. 1t has done
more good by pouring oil on the untroubed and
therefore pestilence breeding waters than ever will
be done by pouring it on the storm-beaten ocean
1t has swatted the fly and thereby saved its tens OF
thousands.
This army of sanitary science has counted its

A MISTAKE ABOUT THE HUMoRIsT.

Jonn Maynard Harlan and ]. Adam Bede are
trailing Roosevelt in the West, answering his
speeches. Harlan was put on for the heavy work,
and Bede to do the humor stunts. ...
Harlan is telling the people that Roosevelt mis-
represents the Chicago convention, and assuring
them that Barnes, Penrose, Crane, and Guggenhem
are patriotic and progressive citizens.
We reckon that the national committee picked the
wrong man to purvey the humor.

BOARD OF HEALTH
 RIDERS QUARANTINE

At meeting of the Board of Health held last night at the of flee of the president, Dr. w. w. Rice, it was agreed to quaran- tine all houses or families who have been infected with meningi, tis since the first of March for a period of two weeks from the time of the physicians dismissal, with the understanding that if any new cases of the disease de, velop before the end of the two weeks, the quarantine may or may not be raised.
 The following residences have been placed under quarantine: W. H. Bean, F. E. Hesterly, Mrs. Hattie Wilson, Tom Scott, Mary Oliver (colored) and J. B. Jordan. The quarantine on each of the above named place will be in force two weeks from the time of infection, provided that there are no further developments of the disease. It was also ordered that each of these places be thoroughly fumigated.
 At present there is only one case of this disease in Prescott and it is the opinion of physi, clans that the warm weather will entirely eradicate.the germs.
 The Board of Health issued an order for the cleaning of all streets and alleys and the drain. age of ditches. This is being done today by the city and all citizens are ordered to clean ur their premises, use disinfectaDt and put every part of their prop erty in sanitary condition.

Little Rock, March 20.-If Little Rock fans want to get back into the Southern League S20,000 worth, they can do so by Saturday night. This is the straight dope handed out by President Kavanaugh, who re- ceived an offer of a five-day op ton upon an unnamed city of the league, and turned it over to the local fans.
 It looked good to them and a meeting will be held today or to- morrow to see what can be done about it. The Little Rock club has about 5000 in it's treasury now, and S20,000 looks pretty stiff to them. But they got SIP,

PROMINENT CITIZEN
 DIED YESTERDAY
J. B. Jordan Succumbs to Meningitis After a Short Illness.

J. B. Jordan died yesterday afternoon at his home on Vine and Second streets in this city from an attack of meningitis, af- ter an illness of three days.
 Mr. Jordan was stricken with this disease last Saturday after, noon about six o'clock. He had been attending to his business during the entire day Saturday, but complained all of not feeling right. In the afternoon his con, dition became so bad that he went to his home and physicians were called. He grew worse during the night and Sunday his case . was pronounced menin- gitis. At that time the serum could not be injected on account of the condition of his heart which was very weak. Later on in the day this injection was made, but seemed to have very little effect and he fingered on between life and death until yes terday evening at 6:10 when the end came.
 J B. Jordan was one of Pres cott's most prominent and sub. stantial citizens. He was ever ready to assist in every move. ment that would in any way promote the progress and ad vancement of the town and his demise is deeply deplored by every citizen of this city.
 He is survived by his wife and two children, his parents Mir. and Mrs. B. F. Jordan, who re. side.a few miles south of city five sisters, Mrs. H. A. Sykes of this city; Mrs. Nettie Began, Bryant, Arkansas; Miss Eliza

was merely a repetition of what
he did in New York, Boston and
every other city where he estab-

When through the effert of or

thoroughly intrenehed, he sought
