would not pay the increase.

Iowa College authorities have taken
hold of the question of providing places
for all the young women who are max
ing applications for entrance and for
rooning facilities. The new dormitories
are full to overffowing and there are
at least fifty applicants already that
can not be accommodated there and
the applications are increasing every
day. Yesterday the college closed a
deal with DR.. P. f. Somers by which
they get possession of his residence on
Park street just across the street from
the campus on the west. They will
make such changes as may be neces-
sary and use the building as an annex
of the dormitories, the ladies having
their meals in the college dining hall.
The price paid for the Somers resi-
dence was $4,000. The Somers family
have not yet relocated themselves but

REMARKABLE WORK BEING DONE
AT cHlLDRENs HOSPITAL AT
IOWA CITY.
AFTER EFFECTS OF g.
PARALYSIS OVERCOME
Dread of plague Lessened Somewhat
Because Of Successful Work by Sur.
aeons--Treatment Free For Those
Who Can Not Afford to Pay-Most
Defects Cured or Relieved.
Special to- Times Republican.

Special" to Tines-Republ!can.
Des MoiQes, Aug 24.-Renewed in
terest, in the remarkable work which
is being done at the state university
hospital at Iowa City in correcting de-
formities in children is manifest now
that infantAe paralysis is more or less
prevalent. There have been many cases
OF lameness as the result of the blight
OF finfantile' paralysis which the skilled
surgeons at Iowa City have been able
TO entirely overcome. With the nope
OF recovery in case children are manned
by the dread child plague alive IN the
mother heart the dread of the scOurge
is lessened somewhat, so the letters
coming in 10 the state health depart
ment indicate.
At the conference Of experts, health
officials, surgeons and others interest
ed in the control of infantile paralysis
held at Washington D. c., last week
DR.. Henry Albert told of some of the
cures which have been effected at the
state university hospital. A man in
middle life, crippled by infantile par
alysis. was cured. Children with
crooked limbs have been made well.
Curvature of the spine has been cor
rected There have been a number OF
instances where the blight of the child
plague has been entirely conquered.
ga Treatment Free.
Iowa people who have not the means
to care for their crippled children can
send them to the hospital for treat
merit The Perkins law, passed by the
last general assembly. makes this pos
stble. It is necessary to secure the
order Of some district judge who has
examined into the case in order to
get the child into the hospital but this
is merely to make sure that the state
will not be imposed upon, that treat
ment is necessary and advisable. So
the children of the poor who are de-
formed can have the opportunity to
be made whole without expense.
If a child is taken young enough it
appears that almost any defect in
form or figure can be cured Some re-
markable cures have been worked out
with the older people also. It is with
the children, however that the best
work is possible.
An Instance is told Of a mother
whose child had never been able to
walk. The little crippled weakling
was taken to the university hospital.
SPINE time later when the mother
came to see her child she did not rec
ognize It for it was running and play
ing about entirely cured # it's lame
ness.
The death Of a woman q years old
at Fairbanks Of infantile paralysis was
reported Yesterday. The total number
Of cases has now reached eighty-one.
