TO LABEL WHOOP|NG COUGH

FLIcTED SUGGESTED.
U. S. Surgeon Issues Warning Against
Disease Which Killed 10000
Children During 1911.

Washington, d. CA timely warn.
ing against the ravages of the "whoop-
ing cough" is being circulated broad.
cast by the United States public
health service in an article by DR..
w. G. Rucker assistant surgeon gen
eral. With the advent Of cold wealth
er, when people crowd into close quar-
ters with fires lighted, windows closed
and ventilation shut of, contagious
diseases begin to spread more rapidly.
"WhoOping cough" says Rucksr, lis
one OF the most serious OF Communi-
cable diseases to children in its i'm
mediate and TemOlest effects The
disease is by no means uncommon in
underfed children, and is often fol
lowed by tuberculosis OF the lungs
Paralysis and many serious affecta-
tons Of the eye also have resulted
from the excessive coughing. II is
thus seen that whOoping cough, which,
it is estimated killed more than TO-
GOO American children in 1911. is a
disease seriously affecting the public
health and demanding earnest atten-
ton"
AS a means of identifying children
affected with whooping cough. DR..
Rucker suggests that they be plainly
labeled with a green arm band, so
that other children may be warned.
Parents should also caution their chill
dren, he said, against the dangers of
exchanging pencils, chewing gum, pro-
miscuous kissing and other means by
which sputum may be transferred
from one person to another
ANY disease which kills 10000 per
sons per annum is a serious one" DR..
RUcker concluded. IF bubonic plague
were to kill that many children in the
United States in one year, the whole
world would quarantine against our
country"

UNION MEN To Be FREED
U. S. COURT ORDERS RELEASE OF
MEN ON BONDS.
Each TO Give Bail on Basis Of $4,000
for Each Year Of Sentence,
Pending an Appeal.

Chicago, lll.-Attorneys for 80
of the 80 imprisoned so.calIed dyna-
mite conspirators won a victory in the
United States court of appeals here,
when a writ Of supersedeas was grant
ed and an order issued for the release
of the prisoners on bonds from the
federal penitentiary at Leayenworth,
pending the outcome OF their appeal.
Ryans bond was fixed at $4,000
The men sentenced to six.year terms
will give bonds for 100000 each The
other men also will give bonds on a
basis OF $4,000 for each year of sen
tence.
The order for the release Of the
men was given after several hours
argument by Chester II. Krum OF ST.
Louis and T. ~ Zoline, for the iron
workers, and District Attorney Charesl
Miller of Indianapolis, for the gov
eminent.
District Attorney Miller opposed the
granting of the writ on the ground
that the men probably would fee the
United States and that, as the ufrense
alleged against them is not extradit-
able, they never would be punished.
Herbert S. Hockin, the informer,
did not appeal for bond for the reason
that he is satisfied with his sentence,
although he was included among
those who may give bond.
