OIL AS LEPER CURE,
DR.. HEISER'S HOPE
World Experts Faith Tenn
pered by Desire for
Better Proof.

DR.. Victor G. Heise1, whom Rupert
Blue, director of the United States
Public Health Service, recognizes as
one of the worlds leading leprosy eX-
perts. has written a report pralslng the
used of chauimOogra oil, which is sara
TO have cured twenty-three lepers IN
the Philippines.
DR.. Heiscr traces the history Of the
use Of chaulmoogra oil, which is ap-
piled hypodermically. 1t IS derived
from an East Indian tree Of the Indian
plum family At first the oil was ap-
piled internally. but the resulting nau-
sea suggested injecting the OIL, com
bined with camphor and resorcln.
"The injections are made at weekly
intervals in ascending doses" writes
DR.. Heiser. The object is 70 regulate
the dose TO prevent violent reactions.
No strychEine is used.
"The present stage Of tho treatment
does not warrant claim that a spe-
cifc for leprosy has been found. TX
perience shows that IL gives more con-
sistently favorable results than any
other method Of treatment that has
come 10 our attention. IL holds out
the hope that further improvement

every instance. II produces apparent
cures in some cases and causes great
Improvement in others. He shows that
the recent cures became mlcrosco-
pically negative shortly after they be-
gan the treatment.
a series of cases is now undergoing
the treatment for more accurate study
Of the effect Of the oil in the different
forms Of the disease and whether any
difference exists as 20 sex" continues
DR.. Heiser, referring 10 the 236 cases
examined by DR.. Buckley, of New York.
Experience shows the desirability of
further trial in the hands Of workers
in different parts of the world.
at is always important 10 remember
there are many treatments for leprosy
which apparently cause some improve
ment. Il not infreQuertly happens that
when cases Of leprosy are placed under
better hvE.euic conditions and have
hospital care the disease is often ar
rested. In a few instances improve
ment results and apparent cures may
take place without anv treatment"

MINERS STRIKE IS
NOT YET

~Centerville, Sept. Is. = The strike OIL
the ESQ miners at Number 80, one mile
south of Centerville continues after a
weeks effort to get a settlement. There
have been some threats of violence
when some of the men attempted to
return to work and arrests were made.
Since then no attempt has been made
to run the mine. The trouble grew out
OF the installation of electric motor
haulage which replaced several men.
The men claimed that more cars were
wrecked by the new system and made
this the reason for their strike. Z
A strike of the Mutual Telephone
Girls because a lineman had been dis
charged has caused some commotion
also. New girls who took their places
threatened with an egging. The
llneman was discharged after his ar

ADMITS ne
TOOK BIG MONEY
LoITERs ABOUT POLICE STATION
FOR HOUR BEFORE TELLING
OF $1,000 ENLIGHTENMENT.

Waterloo, Sept. 15.-Haunting fear
that officers were lurking everywhere
to take him into custody is said to
have impelled Reinhold Beimler, %
years old, to give himself up at the
local police station on a charge OF
embezzling $4,000 from the Prudential
Insurance Co., of New Jersey.
Il committed embezzlement in Chi.
cago four weeks ago. said the young
man as he rested his head on the
night sergeant's desk and sobbed. He
explained that the sum taken lasted
only three weeks on "the great white
way" and he drifted into Waterloo,
without friends and broke,
Beimler loitered about the station
for more than an hour before he went
inside. The uniformed police officers
and the sight Of the bars seemed to
fascinate him. Now and then he
caught glimpses Of the steel doors
and the cages In the rear of the city
hall. The changing Of a heavy door
caused the young man to start and
he skunk back into a shadow as a
patrolman passed by. After an
hours waiting, summoning. all his
courage, he walked into the %sergeant's
quarters. The officer took the strang.
at his word and locked him up.
Later a message was sent to polics
headquarters in Chicago.

Sioux City, Sept. 15.-Had John F.

district court, realized he would some
time have as a client Mike Flanagan,
charged with contempt on a bootlegg.
Ing charge, the jurist might have been
more careful than when he released
Flanagan with the understanding that
If ever arrested again on a like charge
he should be thrown in Jail without
further order of the court.
Flanagan recently was arrested on
a contempt charge and employed the
ex-judge to defend him. He was
found guilty and ordered sent to 1T.
Madison for a year under the new
law. His attorney held up sentence
on a writ of certiorari obtained from
the supreme court but as soon as
Flanagan reached home the old or
der of Judge Oliver was dug up and
he was sent to the county Jail on a
300-day sentence.
