not always possible, especially In

4Os PERSONS LOST IN LOSS OF

An Irish Port, Oct. 11.-Four hun
.dred and eight persons are believed
to have been lost when the Irish mail
steamship, Leinsted was torpedoed
and sunk off the Irish coast Thurs
day. The ship was torpedoed twice
in quick succession and disappeared
in a short time.
The Leinster was proceeding from
Dublin to Holy Head.
The Leinsted was a packet, the
property of the City of Dublin Steam
Packet Company and was registered
at Dublin. She was of 2,646 gross
tons.
An officer surviving declared all
aboard would have been saved had
not the second torpedo struck. It
smashed the boat to splinters, many
persons being injured kby the flying
pieces. There was time to launch
only four boats.

In the head, eyes, ears, back or other
parts of the body and feeling Of se-:
we're sickness. In most Of the cases the
symptoms disappear after three or four
days, the patient then rapidly recover
ing. Some of the patients, however,
develop pneumonia, or Inflammation
Of the ear, or meningitis, and many of
these complicated cases die. Whether
this so-called Spanish Influenza ia
identical with the epidemics of inf1uen-
"a Of earlier years is not yet known.
"Epidemics Of influenza have visited
this country since 1847. It is interest.
ing to know that this first epidemic
was brought here from Valencia,
Spain. Since that time there have
been numerous epidemics Of the dis.
ease. In 1889 and 1890 an epidemic
of influenza, starting somewhere In the
Orient, spread first to Russia and
thence over practically the entire civ.
ilized world. Three years later there
was another fare-up Of the disease.
Both times the epidemic spread wide.
ly over the United States.
Although the present epidemic is
called Spanish Influenza there is no
reason to believe that 1t originated in
Spain. Some writer's who have studied
the question believe that the epidemic
came from the Orient and they call at
tention to the fact that the Germans
mention the disease as occurring along
the eastern front in the summer and
fall of 1917"
How can "SpanIsh Influenza" be rec
ognized7
There Is as yet no certain way In
which single case Of Spanish influ-
enza' can be recognized. On the 9TH
er hand, recognition Is easy where
there is group Of cases. In contrast
to the outbreaks of ordinary coughs
and colds, which usually occur In the
cold months, epidemics Of Influenza
may occur at any season of the year
Thus the present epidemic ragged most
intensely in Europe in May, June and
July. Moreover, In the case of ordi-
nary colds, the general symptoms
(fever, pain. depression) are by no
means as severe or as sudden in their
onset as they are in Influenza. Final
ly, ordinary colds do not spread
through the community so rapidly or
so extensively as does Influenza.
I'm most cases a person taken sick
with Influenza feels sick rather sud-
denly. He feels weak, has pains in the
eyes, ears, head or back, and may be
sore all over. Many patients feel
dizzy, some vomit. Most of the pa
tients complain Of feeling chilly, and
with this. comes fever In which the
rises to 100 to 104. In
most cases the pulse remains relative
ly slow.
"In appearance one Is struck by the
fact that the patient looks sick. His
eyes and the inner side of his eyelids
may be slightly 'bloodshot,' or con-
gested,' as the doctors say. There
may be running from the nose, or
there may be some cough. These signs
of cold may not be marked; never
theless the patient looks and feels very
sick.
I'm addition to the appearance and
the symptoms as already described,
examination Of the patients blood may
aid the physician in recognizing Span.
