win, and the Boosters will en-
deavor to prove that the score at Pa

A LEGACY FOR
 HIS SUCCESSOR

WASHINGTON, Dec. G. Although in his annual report Attorney-Gener- al Wickersham comments the sher- man antitrust law, and advises against it's amendment, when he goes out of office on March 4, he will leave for his Democratic successor a legacy of uncompleted suits brought under this law.
 When he became attorney.general on March 4, 1909, he received as the heir of the preceding administration fifteen uncompleted antitrust suits. Since then to date, he has inaugurat- ed Qncluding the present action against the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad seventy-three additional suits, or more than all the preceding administrations combined. Many of the seventy-three have been completed and many more now marked on the Department of Jus tice docket as pending" will be com- pleted: but it is safe to say-and this is with the approval of the attorney general-that NIT. Wilson's attorney general will inherit more than fifteen cases which are incomplete. To use the words of Mir. Wickersham, "My successor will inherit plenty of work, most of which will be antitrust cases"

A large part of the beach settle, ment just below ShaJtuck's mill was wiped out of existence at 4:$O this morning by an avalanche of mud that came tearing down the mountainside. On the streets it was announced at an early hour that a three-year-old native child and an aged Indian were buried in the ruins,
 Most Of the cabins and tents were occupied by natives and their white associates. There were all told eight cabins or shacks and two or three tents demolished.
 Nearly all of the places were occu- pied at the time and it is a mystery how so many people escaped unhurt.
 The landslide started several hun dred feet up the mountainside and headed for the point where the plank road joins the earth foundation made on the new Sheep creek boulevard.

How a little army of Health Depart ment scientists are studying to pre- vent disease was revealed at the Academy of Medicine last week in a way that made many of the medical men who heard the story sit up and take notice, says the New York World Besides practical and effective treat ment of the eye diseases among school children, the report showed that the discoveries of Dr. Flexner, as to the hse of sera and antitoxines, have been materially advanced by the departments observations and in vestigations.
 Dr. A. w. Williams, assistant di. rector of the Health Departments re. search laboratory, told how her staff of twelve physicians, laboratory as sistants and nurses have wrestled with eye diseases among school chIl. dren. She explained that the scien' tific name, trachoma, means chronic inflammation of the eyelids, ac companied by connected tissue forma tion and follicles of granulated lids Then she showed how by treatment with nitrate of silver or other means the disease had been overcome in 525 oout of 1,O34 cases treated, while 5O9 are still under treatment.
 This work was begun in Gouvern eur Hospital two years ago. At pres ent the department has clincs in Pub lie School No. 21, at Mott and Eld ridge streets, and in the annex tc Public School No. 65, Hester and Al len streets. They have been open nine months now and have cured 16S out of 236 cases of acute trachoma while 26 out of A in the chronic form have been permanently relieved

ker Hospital was described by Dr. NJ coli jr He asserted that the cost of the serum would be prohibitiye of its use here as it foreign cities except for its systematized production and gratuitous distribution by the Health Department. Horses are used to make the cultures. The results at Willard Parker Hospital, according to Dr. Nicolli, are just about equivalent to those obtained abroad. Providing the serum is applied early enough 1t brings about at once a marked fall in temperature, pulse and respira- tion and rapid recovery.
 Dr. Phoebe l.. Du Bois, who is sta. toned in the research labarotory at the foot of East Sixteenth street, re. lated the methods employed to discoy. CT carriers of contagion in cases of cerebrospinal meningitis, which in- volved detective work that throws Sherlock Holmes in the shade. While an epidemic of the malady was rag ing in Greece, for instance, six months old Greek baby arrived, quite free from disease. It's mother, how ever proved to have the germs in her throat, and exact history of the bacilIi was traced back to their place of origin.
 Serum treament, according to Dr. Du Bois, has lowered the mortality in cases of meningitis from 75 per cent. to about 30 per cent. The research labartoory has treated two hundred and fifty.seven alleged cases, only forty.eight of which turned out to have been correctly diagnosed. Tu- berculosis was the real disease in seventy.five cases, thirty.seven were infantile paralysis, nineteen were pneumonia and the rest due to var ious causes with similar symptoms.

 H. c. Burkee. a seafaring man lived in a tent that was completely buried by the onrushing mud. He was in the tent at the time and an Indian. woman was with him.
 Burke cut a hole through the top of the tent and they crawled through this to safety His companion is the mother of the child that, was report ed lost. Burke says there was no child in the tent with them.
 The widow of Chief Johnson, who had retired to a small cabin home in the beach settlement after the biz Johnson house and property became involved in litigation. was found by an Empire representative this morn ing. She was crouched on the floor of her wrecked cabin, moaning over the latest disaster to the house of Johnson.
 Between sobs and with the aid of another Indian woman the informa- tion was imparted that she was in the house at the time but escaped physical injury. The cabin was car ried some distance from its former foundation and is hanging together at pronounced angle and so sadly twisted that it's collapse is imminent
