"The Irish rebellion began with the

possible to assist this rebellion in CO.

can be no doubt that he was moved
by enmity for this country. The con-
tention that he landed In Ireland for
the purpose Of preventing the rebel
lion Is demonstrably false. No such
assertion was made by counsel at the
trial,
Easement was much more malig-
nant and hostile to this country than
were the leaders of the uprising who
were caught with arms in their hands.
He visited plilitary prisons in Ger

Las Vegas, Aug. with the death

it became konwn that between IL and
l5 cases Of the disease have been re-
ported in San Miguel county during
the past several months. Several OF
the cases are yielding TO treatment
and others are in an arrested condi-
tipnA
It is understood, says the Optic,
that IL or IA cases exist In the New
Mexico Hospital for the Insane, the
patients having been sent there when
the dlesase reached the stage where
the mind is affected. OF course, these
cases did not originate altogether in
San Miguel county. but came from
various sections Of the state, In the
country districts Of this county and
Mora county, along the Sapello river,
deaths from ~pellagara have occurred.
On. William Howe said this morn
Ing that the disease is manifestlng It's
characteristic symptoms. There is q
disturbance Of the bowels, an affec-
ton of the skin OF the hands and
feet and arrangement of the mind.
The disease Is not contagious. It is
believed to be caused by an improp-
erly balanced ration in many in
stances, but the food eaten by the ma
tive people Of New Mexico IS not re-
garded as particularly likely to bring
about pellagara,
In the majority Of the cases that
have been reported the disease was
not brought to the attention Of a
physician until it had reached a stage
where. 1t was practically hopeless, In
order that the people may be IN
formed Of. the symptoms and made to
bring the cases to treatment early,
the Las Vegas Medical society likely
win publish soon in English and

that the bean crop alone will be
worth half a million dollars. be-
lieye his estimate is a conservative
one, Our people all are feeling
greatly encouraged, and / think all
the conditions Justify this optimism
