Reporting venereal Diseases.

Following the recommendation of its
advisory board, composed of a number of
prominent physicians of the city, the
New York City board of health has
adopted resolutions providing for the re-
porting of venereal diseases. Officers in
charge of public institutions, including
those supported in full or in part BY
voluntary contributions, are required to
report promptly to the department Of
health patients suffering from venereal
diseases The resolutions. after reciting
that venereal diseases are infectious,
communicable and preyentable and con
stitute a menace to public health, re-
quire the officers to report promptly
the name, sex, age, nationality, marital
state and address Of patients under OBJ
servation suffering from any venereal
disease, together with the stage and
duration of the disease, and the date of
if obtainable. Physicians are
also requested TO report private patients
under their care except as to the name
and address. The necessary tests and
examinations for diagnosis
are made by the board of health, and
serums will be distributed in
cases IN which the data required Tor
registration are furnished by the physi-
clan As a means of effectively carrying
out the objects for which this regulation
was provided, the board has asked the
board of estimate aud apportionment of
The city to provide funds for the erection
and maintenance of a special hospital for
the care of venereal diseases. No such
are now available in New York
md much of the salutary effect of this
measure would be lost by rea-
son of this lack The Journal OF the
American Medical Association SAYS that
he reporting of veneTeal diseases is an
step in public sanitation, and
+ universally adopted and thoroughly
.arried out would go long way in the
control of this prolific source of human
and disease.

MAGAZINE REVIEW
Complexion and Health in the Tropics.

Complexion and Health in the Tropics.
The occupation of regions, like the
Philippines, Porto Rico and the isthmian
canal zone, where tropical conditions pre-
vail, has brought new problems in rela-
tion to the influence of climate on health.
The needs which these changes in the
new territorial interests of the United
States have brought with them, the ne
cessity of introducing troops, workmen
and officials into countries where the
tropical climate is quite unlike that to
which they have been accustomed for
generations, raise many questions of Sc
rious concern for the welfare of the ma
ton, as we'll as of the individuals in
volyed. The difficulties attending the
colonization of the tropics by the white
race are familiar facts of history; so
that the serious minded statesman may
well pause to consider the prospects of
success which our new ventures involve
and to inquire whether the obstacles
hitherto encountered are unsurmountable
for white men
Some of the questions involved have
been given careful study by the United
States army board for the study of
tropical diseases. The board maintains
that it is doubtful If the sunlight is
factor in tropical deterioration The
elements Of possible import in this are
manifold. Heat, humidity, sunlight, lack
of exercise, disturbed sleep, improper
food, bad water, alcoholic excuses, and
above all the characteristic infections of
the tropics have been brought forward
as alleged causes Of the deleterious ef
feet of residence in the tropics. Major
Chamberlain of the army board has made
an extensive investigation Of one factor, |
the complexion type. Account |
was taken Of the amount OF sickness |
among the blends and brunettes. This |
work is discussed in a recent issue OF |
The Journal of the American Medical /
Association. 1t appears that blends are
quite as well able as brunettes to with /
stand the influence of the Philippine I
climate for period of two years and /
probably for period of five and one half |
years. In case of residence beyond the |
latter period, the board is not in a posi-. /
ton to express an opinion based on any
extensive personal observations.

LONG BATTLE
IN BALTIMORE
This is the Prediction of the
Democrats
WILSON AND CLARK CLASH
Will Delay Nomination-Thi Makes the
Showing in the Tield-Game Short
First Ballot They Expect
Many Recruits.
WILSON AND CLARK CLASH

Washington, June 13.-Democratic
leaders in Congress fear long dead
lock at the Baltimore national conyen-
ton over the presidential nomination,
With no candidate entering the con
vention with a majority of the dele
gates, and with Wilson and Clark con-
trolling more than onethird of the vote,
they cannot figure out how the Balti-
more gathering will finish up its work
within three days of allotted time.
One obstacle, it is pointed out, in the
way Of an early agreement for the
nomination is the feeling between the
Wilson and Clark forces. Somehow Or
other the rivalry between these camps
OF the New Jersey and the Missourian
is keener and the feeling is more IN
tense than between the other aspirants.
Whatever chance there may have been to
smooth out the ruffled feelings, the state
ment issued few days ago by the Will
son forces bitterly attacking the Clark
statement Of claim of delegates has not
served TO patch up the differences.
The Underwood forces are sitting
quietly on the lid. They haven't ruffied
anybody's feelings They are not say
ing anything to cause bareback. Dr.
Thomas Owen, the assistant campaign
director for the smiling Alahamian. says
what's more they don't intend to do 50.
He said they intend to conduct a contest
for the nomination that viii truly rep
resent Mr.. Underworld calm, dignified
contest with facts and figures and con-
structiye craftsmanship as their argu-
ments.
To show how confident the Underwood
people are as a result of the feud be-
tween Clark and Wilson forces il the
Underwood supporters that they have
promises from Texas, Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, Virginia and South Caro-
lima that these states will flock to Mr..
Underwood in the event the nomination
Of Mr.. Wilson becomes an impossible
ity. This is the first time that the I'm
derwood people have laid claim to the
Wilson delegates. The Alabama forces
also assert that New York will come
to their side Of the convention hall aft.
or the third or fourth ballot. With New
York, the eighty odd southern delegates
to Underwood and the vii.
son delegates. the Underwood forces
claim they will present showing in
the convention which will cause STAN
Dede on the next ballot
The statement Of Josephms Daniels Of
North Carolina that he is organizing
to nominate for vice-presi
lent the second highest man in the bal
citing at Baltimore has caused keen in
crest here. II is not believed the move
nent will carry. but it has the Demo.

ACID RAINS

Volcanic Ash Was Dissolved in
DoWnpour
LIQUID FIRE BURNS MANY
The Water Supply Is Already Poisoned
Relief Is Being Rapidly Or
ganized to Aid
Kodiak.

Cordova, Alaska, June l3,-Although
six days have passed since the Katamal
volcano burst forth in eruption, there
has been little relief here from the vol
canic smoke and ashes which hang low
over the mountains. The first real dan
ger here from the vocanic action was
made apparent Tuesday night, when a
heavy rain began to fall, the water mix
ing with the ashes in the air, forming
shlphuric acid, which burned painfully
whenever it came in contact with any
ones face or hands. Before the cause
was realized, many persons received pain
full burns in the eyes, although none was
severely injured. Analysis OF the drink.
ing water showed that it contained sui
phuric acid, and physicians directed the
householders to use lime water as a
counter irritant.
All local vessels available have been
placed at the command of Captain Perry
of the revenue cutter Manning and eff
fort are being made to get the war de-
partment to order the transport Sheri-
dan, which is en- route to Alaska from
Seattle with the Thirtieth infantry and
a detachment of Signal corps men, to
proceed directly to the volcano district
of Kodiak to render assistance. The
steamship Alameda is also expected here
soon, and the Alaskan Steamship COM
pany will be asked to send her to the
stricken district. At mass meeting Of
citizens Tuesday night, Cordova Kodi-
ak relief committee was organized. Ca
Diagrams were sent to President Taft,
president of the American Red Cross, and
to Governor Clark, urging them to take
steps for the relief of the
volcano sufferers.

SAYS VESSELS

BOATS FOR ALL
Lord Mersey Indicates His Opinion at
the London Hearing on the
Titanic Disaster.

London, June l3.-The number of life.
boats carried by trans Atlantic liners
sailing under the regulations of the Lon
don Board OF Trade before the Titanic
disaster was based on the tonnage and
not on the number of persons aboard, the
Titanic investigators yesterday were
told by Sir Walter A. Howell, chief Of
the maritime division of the Board of
Trade.
Sir Walter explained that the Board
of Trades regulations based the scale of
life-saving appliances on the gross ton
mage of the vessel, rather than on the
passenger and crew capacity. Lord Mer-
sey, interrupting the witness. said it
was his opinion that every ship should
carry sufficient lifeboats to save every
person on board.
Howell further testified that British
shipowners, mainly in Difference to pub
lie opinion, since the sinking of the III
tanie, had notified the Board of Trade
that all vessels of upward of l.500 tons
would henceforth carry lifeboats and
liferafts adequate for all on board. He
added that his personal opinion was that
public opinion, when in opposition to
that of experts, was valueless.

THE MoDERNrST.

/ ca goose tale written by Mother G. il
a hobble skirt
| There was a modern man
And he worshiped modern guile.
He found modern maiden
And they wed in modern style.
They sought modern agent
| And they looked at this and that,
Till they went and lived together
In little modern fat.
He had modern office,
Where he used to sit and grub,
And he went there every morning
In very modern Sub"
He had modern choice between
The ceiling and lap.
So he read his modern paper
While he clutehed a modern strap.
He spent his modern evenings
In manner most concise;
At times a modern theatre
That charged a modern price.
And after that a restaurant,
Palatial, modern. new,
With a cabaret attachment
That was very modern, too.
He watched the modern dances,
With modern sense of guilt,
Nor knew the bushmen danced them
Ere the pyramids were built.
Then home within a taxi.
Over modern pavements vile,
Behind a meter clicking out
A short and modern mile.
But modern overeating
Wrecked his very modern frame,
And the modern doctors called it
BY a long and modern name.
So they laid him on table
With modern surgeons glee,
And performed modern stabbing
For a juicy modern fee.
Unhappily, his vitals
Didn't rally as they sought,
And so a modern casket
And modern tomb were bought.
And his charming modern widow
Gently whispered, meath her breath,
To say twas so eonsoling
That he die modern death. Life.

Don't Waste Energy.

A woman should make it rule never
to stand at any task that she can do just
as well sitting. For instance, why stand
up when you peel potatoes, she'll peas,
or hull berries? Why stand when you
do" your hair? You are simply using
up strength that should be saved for
more important matters.
Again, you may waste strength by
taking unnecessary steps. This is pc
culiarly likely to be the case when you
have to go UP and down stairs great
deal, A little thought and care will
save you good many toilsome climbs.
When YOU have to go up stairs for
something, think up several other err
rands that may require your presence
on the upper floor, and eontrive to do
them all in one trip.
Speaking of going up stairs, do you
know that most people perform this feat
in the most toilsome manner possible?
They bend from the waist, thus eramp-
ing up their chests until they cannot
get free breath. Then they laborious-
" haul themselves up by clinging to the
bannister, dragging their feet uselessly
after them, and putting the whole strain
of the climb on their backs.
In preparing to go upstairs, stand per- /
fectly erect, throwing out the chest.
Keep away from the bannister. Lift
the feet, bending the knees freely. Let
the knees do all the work.
In addition to wasting energy about
their work, many women fritter away
nervous force when they are supposed to
be resting. For instance, there is the
woman who rocks violently to and fro
in her favorite rocker. She may think
she is taking things easy" but she is
really playing the spendthrift with her
nervous vitality.
Even such apparently unimportant
habits as swinging the foot or tapping
it restlessly upon the floor, or allow
ing the fingers to play with articles
near them, are so much drain on the
nervous system. Beside. they detraet +
from a woman's charm, by making her ,
appear jerky, idgety, and lacking in re-
pose. {
Keep stilli Relax even in your work. /
A calm, methodical method of working
will accomplish far more in the long run
than all your old hurry and furry and g.
tension. Relax mentally and phys caly..
\ on can have no conception-till you try
tot what a change it can work in
your health, disposition. and appearance.
