HISTORICAL EXPLOITS OF
'QU|N|vE JIM MCKENZIE
Recalled By the Recently In.
creased Cost OF This Well
Known Drug.

The Cleveland Plain-Dealer, stir
red by the increased cost of quinine,
from 40 cents to $3.50 an ounce
since the outbreak of the European
war, editorializes at some length
upon the great specific, gives the
history of it and of the men who
have been chiefly concerned with it.
Beginning with the two French
chemists who discovered cinchona
bark in 1880, to Sir Clement Mark
ham, who went to Peru in 1852 and
learned how to plant the tree, and
finally to the German chemists who
learned how to grow quinine in back
yards, everybody who had anything
to do with the malaria medicine is
mentioned-except "Quinine Jim"
Mckenzie.
1t will be remembered that qui-
nine used to sell as high as $500 an
ounce-twice the present wartime
price. A single firm in Philadelphia,
Powers & Weightman. had quinine
monopoly, and the Government
maintained that monopoly for them
by a genuinely protective tariff-7a
tariff that completely protected Pow
ers & Weightman. Those were days
when quinine was greatly needed,
much more widely needed than now,
and the monopoly grew mighty fat.
Finally Kentucky constituency
sent to Congress a gentleman who
lived in South Christian and knew
chills and fever In his own proper
person. He proposed to put quinine
on the free list. He was laughed at,
but continued to talk free quinine,
think free quinine. live free quinine.
And he pounded until he got free
quinine. So far as the United States
Is concerned. Mckenzie did a heap
more than Markham and the Ger
man scientists in making quinine
cheap and abundant. Forty-cent
quinine was the invention.
The present high price of quinine
is nobody's fault but our own. II

DECREE OF THE POPE
PUTS BAN ON DANCING
"PeriIs and Losses Caused By
Growing Custom" Is the
Reason Given.

New York, June S.-Pope Bene-
dict has caused the issuance of an
edict forbidding any society under
parochial jurisdiction from giving
any entertainment where there is
dancing. The congregations of the
Roman Catholic parishes Of this
city were surprised by this action,
and the workers who have used the
annual balls as a chief means of
raising society funds were confront
ed with a problem of finding a sub
stitute entertainment.
The papal decree is said to apply
only to the United States and Can
ada.
I'm the last century in the United
States the custom sprang up of
gathering Catholic families to balls,
which used to be protracted to a
late hour at night by entertainments
and other forms of amusements, -
begins the decree. 1t continues:
The reason and cause given for
this was that Catholics might get to
know each other better and become
more intimately united in the bonds
of love and charity. Those who
were used to preside over the gath
erings were generally the heads Of
some pious work, but rarely the rec
tors or the parish priests Of
churches.
But the ordinaries of the place.
although they entertained no doubt
of the upright purposes of those who
prompted these dances. still, looking
at the perils and losses caused by
the growing custom. considered 1t
their duty to forbid them"

RUSSIAN GYPSIES OFFER
$500 TO ESCAPE BATH

What is probably the record price
to escape a bath was offered recent
ly to the Cuban Government by rs
Russian gypsies who went to Miss
Mary Gilmore and Miss Marie S.
Oerther, of this city, who arrived
here yesterday aboard the steamship
Tenadores, of the United Fruit line.
Each one offered the immigra-
ton authorities of Cuba $780," said
Miss Gilmore. who is a member OF
Miss Maude Adams's Company
"Just think Of it-$10O apiece, a
total of $500 rather than take a
bath! The authorities insisted upon
their bathing and refused to allow
any of the band to land unless they
did.
"The gypsies protested that they
had not taken a bath in five years
and that they would suffer any in
dignity rather than submit to abiu-
tions which they had escaped so
long. The money, which was ten
dered to the chief of the Immigra-
tion Department In cold cash. was
declined. and as the gypsies stood
upon their inalienable right to go
unbathed they were deported aboard
the Pastores to Colon. "-[New York

DEAF CLEVELAND GIRL
Is TAUGHT TO SING

Columbus. o., June 1O.-Teach-
ing deaf person to sing, a feat
which hitherto generally had been
considered to be impossible, has
been accomplished by Mrs. Chris
tian Born. wife of Columbus brew
er, after weeks of experimenting
with Magdalene Sattler, an eighteen
year-old Cleveland student at the
State School for the Deaf here, ac-
cording to announcement.
Miss Helen Keller, of New York,
the eminent deaf and blind student,
was in Columbus Friday for the pur-
pose of testing out Mrs. Born's new
process. Thomas A. Edison. inven-
tor. also is said to be interested in
Mrs. Born's experiments.
Mrs. Born's experiments to prove
her theory that the sense of hearing
Is not altogether essential in sing
ing, have been conducted In secret
for several months, and were not
made public until Friday.
The new teaching method con-
sists of facial expressions, accom-
panied by piano tones. which the
student cannot hear. To date the
Cleveland girl has mastered more
than an octave of notes. enough,
scientists say, to prove that the new
method Is a success.

MEAT SCARCE ARTICLE
IN GERMANY JUST NOW
The Card Holders Wait In Line
For Hours To Secure a
Portion.

Berlin, June 10.-For the first
time since the outbreak of the war
meat is hard to obtain in the capital
and larger cities of the German En-
pire. Meat lines" have grown as
long as the "butter and milk lines .
and those forming them often must
wait for hours before they can pro-
cure the quota allotted by their
cards.
Responsible for this condition are
the heavy demands made upon the
meat supply by the army, an almost
total cessation of imports and the
Governments new policy of dis
couraging the slaughterng of meat
animals before fattening has given
them their maximum butcher
weight. Cattle owners recently have
shown tendency to keep stock
from the market because the maxi
mum price arrangement has left
them little profit.
Prospects for a good pork produc-
ton are said to be excellent. Last
fall the pork was poor in quality
and quantity. In the winter of
1914-15 the Government, realizing
that there would be a shortage In
foodstuffs; advised that all pigs in
good condition be slaughtered and
their meat preserved.
This was done, but in many cases
the meat was so poorly cured, owing
to a lack of competent help. that 1t
spoiled by the thousands of tons.
Since then an effort has been made
to bring back the pork production to
something approaching normal pro-
portions.
An Improvement In the pork mar
ket would ease the shortage of fat
in the empire. which is felt almost
more than the shortage Of meat. The
necessity for an ample supply of an
imal fat has never been felt SO by
the people as at present. especially
since the production Of butter fell to
almost nothing during the winter
months.
There has been slight improve
nent in the milk and butter situa-

States where the almost pure article
is found. In Utah and Southern
California, where the mineral is ia

ducing the pure potash from the
