.DAYTONS STREETS DRY
time on their Way to the
Gulf of Mexico

Columbus, O.. March 29.-The floods
are receding rapidly from the towns
which have been almost inundated The
loss Of life in some places is consid-
erabIy less than at first estimated while
in others it Is greatly increased.
The latest estimate OF the dead
throughout the great flood zone is four
thousand with property loss amounting
to two hundred millions, The railways
are practically paralyzed and the wires
are prostrated.
The new centers of food havoc are
GAINESVILLE, Cincinnati and Ohio river
points. They are being swept by the
worst floods in many years. These
foods sweeping onward will carry
great destruction into the Mississippi
valley and on to the Gulf coast.
At Dayton the waters have subsfded
and the streets are dry. Searchers are
hunting through the debris for victims
of the awful disaster The best esti-
mates place the dead in Dayton at
1000 with a property loss of S25. .000. 600
At Cincinnati the river is expected
to pass the highest mark on record.
The damage will amount to many mill
ions.
At GAINESVILLE over two hundred are
dead. The loss at Columbus was found
to be much greater than expected as
the waters receded The best esti-
mates place the loss of life here at over
six hundred. That entire portion OF
the city between Central and Sandusky
avenues has been wiped out. The
bodies of two hundred dead were found
| in the United Brethren church on Av-
ondaIe avenue. Two hundred other
victims We're counted along West Park

Don't Mistake the Cause of Your Trou.
bIes-An Ocala Citizen Gives
n Valuable Hint

Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame,
weak or aching back they think that
1t is only a muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think that
it will soon correct itself. And so it
is with all the other symptoms of kid
ney disorders. That is where danger
often lies You should realize that
these troubles often lead to dropsy or
Bright's disease. An effective remedy
for weak or diseased kidneys is Doan's

PRESIDENT GILMORE's
PROD AT PROHIBITION
New York Times


While the prohibitionists have more
than excuse for viewing with suspicion
any advice offered to them by Presi-
dent Gilmore of the National Model
License League, they will nevertheless
find some difficulty in explaining their
failure to do as he says and seek to
penalize in dry states the purchase,
possession. and use, as well as the sale.
of intoxieants
It has always been more than a little
mysterious why the more thorough
going enemies of alcohol have nowhere
ventured on the courage suggested.
Logic demands that the drinker should
be attacked directly, instead of indi-
rectly, for il is he, and not the saloon
keeper, who sharpens the parricidal
axe and goes numerously 10 expensive
jails and asylums, after first beating
his wife and making his children go
barefoot.
President Gilmore declares that the
prohibitionists refrain from asking for
laws against the consumer of whisky,
beer. and other provocatives of red
eyes simply because they don't want 10
go without assorted toddies them
selves. That. OF course, is accusation
degenerated into absurdity and stu
pidity, for, whatever else the teetotal-
ers may be, they are not drunkards OF
tipplers, and though they may be not
few protected prohibitionists in the
south who would wink at the drawing
in this as in other matters, of racial
line that would exclude themselves
from utter deprivation. that is far from
being a characteristic of the party.
1t is from a lingering respect for the
practical that the prohfbitionists have
never dared to try carrying their doc
trine to its natural and seemingly in
evitable extreme. In that respect alone
perhaps, are they truly temperate.

1t is not known whether he arrived

Many Like Cases


over the country show, it is said. that
there was a tragedy that came with
the announcement of Dr.. Friedman to
the effect that he had found a cure fer
tuberculosis. Applications were made
at such offices for transportation to
New York, the needy ones having a
spark of hope remaining in their
minds that they might pe selected for
treatment A number of such have
been made at the offices of the Asso-
ciated Charities in Jacksonville, and
the answer to the effect that such a
quest for treatment is a hopeless thing
so far. has, in each case, been given
out.
Communications exchanged between
the Associated Charities in a number
of cities will show, 1t Is thought, an
estimated list of thousands from every
section Of the country, who vainly
hoped to go to New York City ana sue
cessfully imRlore the aepman specialist
to treat them 1t is believed that
many others have left from every sec
ton of the country for New York for
like purposes, but whose cases never
became known to charitable epgantza-
tions owing To such not having some
available funds.
In some places the press has been
enlisted in the effort to show all that
so far the securing Of the friedman
treatment is a hopeless one, regardless
of what price may be offered for it. On
the other hand, it is said that 1t has
been very difficult to impress such
facts upon sufferers. Many with a last
desperate hope have started to New
York city regardless of what advice
has been offered them along this line.
Inadequate Hospitals
Recent bulletins sent out TO eharita-
| bic organizations over the country, by
the hospital authorities of New York
City, ask aid in keeping invalids from

BRITISH LIQUID FUEL EXPERT
ENCOURAGES OIL COMPOUNDS

London.-Robert w. A. Brewer, n
well known expert on the subject of
liquid fuel, lectured to the Institute
of Inventors recently on Petrol and
It's Substitutes" 1t was very i'm
portant at the present time. he said,
to take the largest proportion possi-
Bile of the crude fuels of nature for
use in the automobile engine. 1t was
generally supposed that only the
lightest benzines could be used for the
purpose but the mixing Of the heavier
and lighter fuels enabled the former
fractions to be consumed almost as
efficiently as though they were heat
treated.
Though petroleum In any shape or
form, either as petrol or paraffin
was a very complex substance II was
possible and highly advisable in the
interests OF economy, that the ex-
plosive mixture entering the cylin-
ders should be homogeneous. This
was only possible by the use of a car
buretor which sprayed the fuel into
the finest particles, and In which the
air stream was intimately intermin-
gled with the fuel vapor.
The lecturer then dealt with some
important characteristic OF petrol.
such as its volatility. and discussed at
some length the variation of viscos-
ity with temperature. The maximum
efficiency of combustion could only
be obtained by so arranging the fuel

men that women should be liable for
obligatory social service in institu-

footing with men in those countries
where conscription prevails.
Another proposal emanating from
a member Of the French council, that
women should take the place of men

FREE STATES OPPOSE
PREMIER IN SOUTH AFRICA

Bloemfontein, s. Africa.-A strong
ly worded resolution was adopted by
AZ votes to at the congress of the
Free state section of the South Af-
rican party, declaring the General Bo-
tha had forfeited its confidence, re-
questing him to resign, and express
ing complete confidence in General
Hertzog.
Another resolution was also passed.
declaring that falling General Botha's
resignation within one week. the re-
presentatives of the Free State prov
ince in the house of assembly would
be required to withdraw their support
from the government and force a dis
solution. A large number of Free
State members were absent from the
congress owing to parliament being
in session.

that the amount of fuel or the guam
tity of air flowing TO the engine could
be adjusted to compensate for the rise
in temperature of the apparatus when
working.
He explained by means of dia-
grams why large proportions of a fu-
el like paraffin could be used in con-
junction with a volatile spirit in an
ordinary carburetor. Alcohol and
mixtures of this fuel with benzol could
be used under certain conditions, but
alcohol was not at the present time
a suitable fuel for furter experiment

laid upon it,
II support were given to the pro-
duction of home distillates much
might be done to make alcohol COM
mercial proposition as a liquid fuel.
Benzol was eminently suitable on the
other hand, and he thought that this
fuel should receive greater encourage
ment. He favored an increase in the
specific gravity of liquid fuel, accom-
panied by the production of a suitale
carburetor. this being the only solu-
ton of the problem and OF the ques-
ton of the supply Of motor fua to
meet the increasing demand.
