WORK OF THE STATISTICIAN
COMPLICATED BY THE WAR

Paris, Feb. 2.-The prolongation
of the war has had the effect of
complicating remarkably the work
of the statistician. The man who is
fond of figuring out what given cir
cumstances will produce in all sorts
of occasions began his calculations
on the supposition that all would be
over within a few months. After the
few months passed he began to fig
ure on year, and again he had to
revise his figures.
The most intricate problem that
he has been working on Is what will
be the total destruction in value of
the men killed and men disabled for
life. Statisticians working on this
problem go back as far as the war
of the Crimea in '57, when Proudhon
estimated the value Of a mans life
at 10000 francs $4,000. Since
then writer's on this subject have for
the most part discredited the arbi-
trary figure and have valued the life
or services Of a man according to his
producing capacity. Foville made
the far more moderate estimate of
$500 as the average value of the
men killed In the war of 1870. Com
ing down to the present time, Yves
Guyot considers that q mans salary
or wages represents no more than
half of the value of the production
to which he contributes, and start
ing from that basis he figures that
during the first six months of the
war France had lost $4,000, 900
through the disappearance and dis
abling of producing men. On the
same basis the loss to date would be
$9,00O,000,000, but other writer's
contest the soundness of the basis
on which these figures are produced.
If the workman, on a salary of 81
per day may be considered worth
from $1,000 to $4,000, the engi-
neer, who earns $40 a day, may be
considered worth 100000 and If
these figures were taken in view of
the heavy losses in officers, the total
would amount, perhaps, to double
the statistician's figures.
An officer at the front, taking the
legal value Of human being as fixed
by law, at 5000, calculated the cost
per square yard Of ground recon
quered from the enemy in a certain
attack at $133,0O0.
Monsieur Eugene d'Aichtal Of the
Institute and member of the Society
OF Statisticians of Paris, refuses to
accept the basis of any Of the calcu-
lators who have figures on these re-
suits up to this time, and is of the
opinion that in view of the many op-
portunities for differences of circum-
stances and faulty bases, no figures
worthy of serious consideration will
ever be reached.

DESPERATE BURGLAR CAUGHT

b Palm Beach, Feb. "A daring rob
berry of the cottage of Mr.. and Mrs
William Thaw III, of Lakewood, N. J..
who are wintering here at Prima
Vera, was prevented by the quick &C
ton of their chair man just as they
were preparing to go to the Beach
Club. The chair man was waiting for
the Thaws and Walter C. Longley
when he noticed a man in his stock
ing feet attempting to climb one OF
the trees adjacent to the house. He
Immediately grappled with this man
and the noiseof the fight brought Mr.
and Mrs. Thaw and their guest to the
porch. In the struggle that ensued
Mr.. Thaw seized a six-shooter from
his pocket while the three men over
came him.
/ Taking him to the dining room, he
was searched and a burglar kit, in
cluding wax and a bottle Of chloro
form was found on him. When the
chloroform was located the burglar
said to Mrs. Thaw, 81 meant this for
you" Once he broke loose from his
captors and seized knife before he
was overcome.
He was placed in the county jail
and said his name was William
Brooks, of Baltimore.

WORE SHIRTS OVER UNIFORM
COATS IN NIGHT ATTACKS

Berlin, Feb. Russian general
staff reports have frequently men
toned night attacks in which the
soldiers wore their shirts over their
uniform coats. A majority of the
readers have puzzled in vain for an
answer to why this should be done.
and have assumed that it was to
help make the attacker invisible
against the snow.
Captain Berthold Walter of the
German army, now comes forward
with the explanation. The shirts
are worn. not to conceal the wear
ers. but rather so that the attackers
may be able to distinguish each 9th
er in the darkness and the conflict Of
battle. The custom also is not new
but historically old.
It was begun centuries ago by the

NEW LIGHT CURE

Loudon, Feb. 2.-Experiments
with a new light cure have been
carried out with apparent success at
St. Bartholomew's Hospital, Lon
don, and, although the doctors are
cautious in their statements, owing g
to the comparatively short period of
investigation, they have found the
rays have produced excellent results
in the treatment of skin diseases
and have stimulated the repair Of
shrapnel wounds.
The Simpson light" named after
its discoverer, is based on the affin-
ity of rare metals for each other.
Mr.. Simpson had noted that the
combustion of certain ores produced
light having a curative effect on
the hands of the workmen. He pro-
duced an electric arc lamp with
these ores as electrodes, notably
tungstate of iron and wolfram. Two
kinds of rays are produced, visible
and invisible. The invisible are heat
rays and ultraviolet rays, the latter
differing somewhat from ultraviolet
rays hitherto obtained. The Simp-
son ultraviolet light is more intense
than that given by a carbon arc like
the Finsen lamp. 1t is in fact richer
in ultraviolet waves than any other
lamp.
The installation at st. Bartholo-
news was made last July. The light
is said to have produced marked ben
efits in the treatments of diseases of
the nose and throat as well as in
the case of skin diseases. The vapor
from the lamp also seems to help
asthma. A case of obstinate eczema
and one case of lupus are reported
apparently cured. But it will take
time to see whether these cures are
permanent.

London, Feb. 2.-Military opera

ty much at a standstill. Aeral move
ments constitute the chief activities,
except for German advances at i'm
portant points on the French line.
Indications of possible notable de-
velopments in the Balkans were
found in dispatches today. Athens
declares that the Germans and Bull
garians with a force of 10000
Turks are likely to begin an attack
on Saloniki about the middle of the
month.
The Bucharest newspaper Adteve-
rul declares, according to wireless
from Rome that Greece and Rumania
have signed a dual neutrality treaty.
The British in Mesopotamia still
are prevented from attempting an

ONE KILLED.. ANOTHER
W0UNDEDsM ST. CAR FIGHT

Jacksonville, Feb. I'D. E..
Goolsby, 10 years old and residing at
1405 Forest street, is dead and A {.
E. Lancaster, another young white
man, is in serious condition at st &.
Luke's Hospital, as a result of bat.
tie aboard Jacksonville Traction
Co. car at the end of the Lackawan-
ma avenue line about 1880 o'clock
Monday night. Goolsby was shot
through the brain and died immedi-
ately after being taken to the hos
pital in Conant's ambulance. Ian
caster suffered one shot through the
left lung and out through the right
side. 1t was stated that Lancaster
has chances for recovery.
Goolsby was an employe of the
Seaboard Air Line Railway and Ian.
caster was street car motorman
and a passenger on the car where
the affair started. 1t is stated that
when the car stopped at the end of
the line, negro by the name of ID.
o. Wall, of 1924 Illinois street, en-
tered and was followed closely b.
Goolsby.
Lancaster arose from his seat and
interceded in the negro's behalf. At
this Goolsby withdrew to the vesti-
bule. Accordingsto L. o. Hall, con-
ductor of Car No. 143, the shooting
then began at Lancaster. Hall says
it was returned and Goolsby fell to
the floor of the car with a bullet in
his brain. Lancaster left the car and
was found later a short distance
from the car on the steps of the
home of J. b. Godsbold in a semi
conscious condition.
The case was Immediately inves-
tigated by Sheriff VI. II. Bowling,
Deputy J. C. Crawford and Detec-
tive p. p. Lord. Complete state
ments were taken by the officers
from all of the witnesses. among
whom were Conductor l.. o. Hall,
Motorman G.. F. Chase and j. p.
Sullivan, passenger.
A coincidence in the shooting fray.
according to the authorities, is the
fact that both the young men had
new 32-calbre Smith & Wesson pis-
tolls. each carrying three cartridges
The gun used by Lancaster had been
fired three times while that of
Goolsby was fired but twice.

general and was used to designate
any kind of night fight, whether
the soldiers wore their shirts inside
or outside Of their coats.
The first recorded "eamisade''
