Louisiana Authorities Fail To

eainst The Epidemic

Notwithstanding the efforts of
Shreveport, La, to keep out mem
Eingitis by establishing quarantine
against the state of Texas. where a
considerable epidemic Of the disease
occurred during the winter and spring,
a number of cases occurred in that
city and vicinity.
/ Some interesting figures have been
| prepared by the city health officer
concerning the disease. Since Dec.
Ia. 1911. III cases originated in the
city and nineteen were imported,
making the total number treated 100.
| Exclusiveofimported cases. twenty
seven patients were white and eighty
-four colored. eighty-four were males
and forty-six females.
\ Among the cases in the city there
were sixty-nine recoyeries and thirty
eight deaths. making the percentage
of recoveries 65.
OF the whites, twenty three recov-
cred, a percentage of IS. The dis
ease occurred most frequently among
negroes between the ages of II and
20. The greater number of cases
and higher percentage Of deaths
among the colored population are
probable accounted for by the differ
Eelce in economic and hygienic con-
lditions.
The percentage of recoveries at
Sn rev eport is a little better
than the average in the Texas cpl
demic, the deaths in the latter state
being between 40 and GO per cent.
In one city in Texas, where most cas-
es occurred, the mortality in the city
hospital under the serum treatment
was q per cent. while among those
treated outside of the hospital with
and without the serum it was go per
cent. In few places thedeath rate
reached IS per cent.
The journal of the American
Medical Association says in a recent
editorial that the showing in favor
of the hospital treatment combined

FINISHING
THE LAKE
HIGHWAY
Work to Beat
the Winter

Nearly one hundred men are en-
ployed on the state highway between
Nc Kinney and Tallac in an effort to
open it before the snow t1es. Labor
ers are being rushed in as fast as they
can be obtained. The work is hard
for the reasoon that the twelve miles
between the two points mentioned
constitute the rockiest portion of the
proposed route. The big bend in the
highway back OF Emerald Bay is the
heaviest kind OF rock work. it being
necessary to blast every foot Of the
road. At that point the road forms
great letter L. It's course will be
studded with rock needles. Obelisks,
fantastic formations and strange and
Wierd looking specimens of the scol-
ia that flank the highway that is in
the making like bands of phantoms
This section presents many engin-
eerng difficulties which have been
overcome. With its completion the
State of California will have finished
the road around nearly all of the
California side, and autos will be Ell
abled to reach Tahoe City.
Efforts are being made to get this
state to build like connecting road
in order that an auto drive around
the lake may be possible The Ne
vada side presents more difficulties
than the California. for the reason
that the east shores of the lake are
almost perpendicular. However,
there are a number Of old logging
roads that may be utilized in max
ing the highway that will complete
the chain, making it the most beau
tiful driveway in the world.
