He was in the twenty-third year OF

has borne him away, was an industrious
promising young man, with hosts OF
friends among the young people OF
the city and older acquaintarces who
had known him since his babyhood

expected death just in the prime OF
his young manhood. He was con-

with the steamer Keokuk with Cap
tain Mckenzie, and possibly for
time with Streckfus lilie. He had

CLUMSY TURTLES
FURNISH CURE
Friedman Method Of Securing BAG
I'LL Is Explained by His
Brother.

NEW YORK, March 14.-Some of
the mystery and Misrepresentation that
has surrounded the Friedman anti
tuberculosis bacilli was cleared away
today and one Of the chief components
of the cure revealed by DR.. Arthur c.
Friedman, brother of the noted Ger
man scientist. The revelation dis
PEELED the popular belief that Fried
mann secures his culture by inoculat-
ing turtles. This is an unfounded
opinion. Instead the bacilli is orig
inal with the turtles themselves.
The base Of the entire cure is a
culture secured from a turtle that
has tuberculosis. In its original form
it is virulent and toxic in the ex-
IRENE and injection in human would
mean speedy DEATH
This was observed by DR.. Fried
mann In his early experiments and it
was only after numerous tests that
he discovered the method of robbing
the culture of its virulency.
His method is to inject the culture
made from the bacilli taken from the
original turtle into a perfectly healthy
turtle and then to transfer this culture
from turtle to turtle until eventually
bacilli is obtained which is non
toxic and harmless when injected in
to the human system.
DR.. Arthur c. Friedman carefully
explained the method in which the
culture is made this afternoon to DR..
Charles S. Noble of Seattle, who came
to this city at the request of the
Seattle Star to investigate the merits
of the cure. He explained that in
order to produce an absolutely viru-
lent culture it was necessary to re-
duce the strength of the bacilli by
transmission through a certain num-
lber of other normal turtles, but he
said that the exact number of trans
fers was one of the secrets which DR..
friedman has kept to himself.
| In either the intravenous or sub
cutanecus method OF administering
the cure DR.. Friedman told DR.. Noble
the dose is necessarily minute,
amounting to less than one centigram
of the prepared culture. The effect,
however. he said, was always very
pronounced, as the culture rapidly
multiplies in the system and thus was
able to overcome the existing tuber-
culosis, although seldom able to re-
new ravished tissues

THREE LIGHTS IN BLOCK
Original Plans Called for Six Lights
In Block But These Plans
Have Been Altered by
Committee.

The committee on the white way"
matter, which was expected to get out
today and find out the attitude of the
merchants and property owners, re-
garding the installation of the new
system Of street illumination, could
not go out today and will probably
make start tomorrow.
1t is now planned to solicit the
merchants and property owners of
one block of Main street to contribute
to the illumination of one plcck to IL
lustrate what can be done with the
new system. This will be- the object
Of the committee, which will go out
tomorrow, according to a statemens
by one of the committeeman this
morning
The Keokuk Electric Company has
already been authorized to install
steel poles for the new lighting sys-
/ tenn, should 1t be installed and this,
itself, will greatly lessen the cost Of
installation. 1t is planned to tut in
three lights in each block, but more
can be added if needed.
The cost of these lights will be
about 5000 each, but it is said that
the initial cost is about all that will
be required. The city is expected to
take care of the upkeep, which will
be comparatively small.
/ The ornamental lights, to be used,
will be the same candlepower as the
big arcs, now at the street intersec-
tions, and it is thought that three in
each block will be amply sufficient to
illuminate the street and make a
creditable showing, although the
original plan was to install SIX lights
in each block.
The particular block to be lighted
in this first demonstration has not yet
been selected, but the one between
Third and Fourth streets, on Main, OF
