of Disease.

Following another death among the
apes IN the New York Geological Park

tuberculosis epidemic. which has in the
last three weeks killed six ~ the famous
apes i'm the primate house. Health Com
missioner Lederle declared that the De-
partment OF Health would begin an in
vestigation al once.
Or. William T. Hornaday. as was told
in Yesterdays Tribune. said the disease
had been diagnosed as lymphatic tubercu-
losis, which was i'm the nature OF the bu-
bonic plague and cholera. but that il was
not communicable TO human beings.
In announcing that the Department OF
Health would make an immediate investi-
cation Commissioner Lederle said
tuberculosis is very common among
monkeys. We shall try to find out
whether the fatal outbreak was due to
lung tuberculosis or 10 Emphatic tubercu-
losis"
The latest victim Of the plague. which.
according to DR.. Hornaday. has caused
the greatest loss ever sustained by the
New York Geological Society, was Mike,

captivity. These three are Dick and

there is but little hope for their recovery.

Of these apes Yesterday, but they were I'M
able to see the smians Chcesecloth

front at the finish and demanding
recognition with a vote that sur
passes all rivals. A glance at the
standing of the competitors as
printed today will show how COM

One week from next Saturday night
and the prizes will be won.
The leadrs on that night will be

winner for it would have finished one
more club and that would have made
him have the highest vote.
There may not be so close finish
this time; but one thing is dead
certainty; IL this campaign were con-
cluded as things stand now, one or
two winners would be named by a
very small margin.
Subscriptions that are secured
within the remaining eight working
days will make the winners.
During the closing days the work
Of getting subscriptions will be much
easier and more productive than the
days that are past. Almost without
exception, the competitor, in the days
that are past, have secured promise
OF support at the end, and now thar
the end Is SO near at hand, the time
has come for the Grand Army of
Promisers to stand and deliver.
Even those who have already given
the competitors of their choice a sub

an additional payment and in that
way get special award of votes. 1t
