t:cian, residing in Newark, n. J. The
death rate from tuberculosis during this

l74.3 to 1897 per 100000 of population.
Mortality from this disease has decreased,
actually as we'll as relatively, during the
last thirty years.
Where SO much has been achieved,
said Mr.. Hoffman, the hope is justified
that at least equally satisfactory results

tion-wide campaign against tuberculosis
would have been well worth While even
if it had succeeded only in preventing

WHEN HE REFUSES TO WORK

E, Bagsdy, the man who was arrested
last Sunday, and who had a narrow es-
cape from being committed to the asy.
lum by the county court, is languishing
in the dark hole at the city bastile.
Bagsdy will not work. He informs the
chief of police that he is too strong
for light work, and never has done any
heavy labor,
The prisoner was arrested on the
charge of vagrancy. He says he is a
paperhanger by trade, but "can t stand
heavy work on account of his health "
He told Chief Shedeclk that he could kill
certain people with a minutes after
thought, and made several other unusu-
al remarks, which resulted in his in.
vestigation as to his sanity by DR.. o. B.
Miles, The physician believes him in
sane at times, but the man was clever
enough to keep a close mouth before the
county Judge.
Unless Bagsdy changes his mind about
performing few odd jobs for the city,
he will remain in the dark hole for a
few days longer.

EUGENE BOSSE COMING TO BOOST FLAX

Mrs. Lord has received a communica-
tion from the committee in charge Of
the industrial fair in London in 1914,
requesting that sample Of Salem
grown flax be sent there for exhibit.
This shows the far.reaching influence
Of a newspaper, even so small an one
as The Capital Journal. Only month
ago the Capital journal took up the
question of flax growing, and this lit
tie matter has not only reached across
the Atlantic, but has secured returns
from the other side, The Capital Jour
nal does not claim to have any large
circulation in the Worlds metropolis,
or that the committee alluded to saw
the article in its columns. That was
no doubt clipped and sent across the
sea. But the fact is patent that If it
had not been written It would not have
clipped, and so that committee would
never have heard Of Salem flax.
Mrs. Lord also tells us the cheerful
news that Mr.. Eugene Bosse will leave
Brussels about July first and will be in
Salem about the 18th, as he will come
direct, with but day or perhaps two
spent in visiting. Mr., Bosse after 90

be seen from these facts that the sub.

that there is going to be something doing
in the flax business here in Salem, and
IT is going to be done right away In
the meanwhile we ask all who have

know everything that pertains TO their
crop, as 1t suggests itself to them.
