SLEEPING SICKNESS IS
FATAL TO KfNTUCKIAN
Lexington Man Succumbs to Illness
That Is Causing Considerable
Alarm Throughout State.

Conley Congleton, 26, prominent
farmer living nine miles east of Lex
ington on the Richmond pike, died at
9:15 o'clock Thursday morning in a
Louisville hospital Of disease dag
onsed by physicians as sleeping sick
ness"
Several weeks ago Mr.. Coneleton
suffered from an abscessed tooth and
after 1t was extracted had trouble
with boils, which physicians said re-
suited from poison disseminated
through his system from the abscess
Shortly afterward his sight began to
fail and he was brought to Lexington
and placed under observation of n
specialist, who said the eye symptoms
were identical with a case of "sleep-
ing sickness" reported last week from
Jessamine county.
The patient was removed to the Nor
ton Memorial hospital at Louisville
Monday and his condition grew stead
lily worse until his death. He would
rouse at times sufficiently to be fed
and at such times would recognize
members of his family who were with
him but would relapse into a comatose
state.

CELEBRATION OF NINETEENTH

TO BE HELD ON ISLAND TODAY

+ Today Cuba celebrates her nine
teenth anniversary -rof independence
and also the new president, DIR. Al
fredo Zayas, is inaugurated.
OF the many Latin american repub-
lies, Cuba, logically is looked upon by
us with great interest, and there are
many reasons for us doing so. Our
boys helped her to become a free ma
tion; the United States is bound by a
treaty to see that she keeps her free
dom; we have a reciprocity treaty
with the island, and when we go to
Cuba we are received in the most
courteous manner and are accorded
the most hospitab1e treatment, while
the Cubans are treated by US accord
ingly.
The government of Cuba establish
ed an office in Pensacola to encourage
business with the island republic in
1904. v. J. Vidal, well known in this
city, was the consul until 1920. when
at that time the consulate was pro-
NOTED to state office and Santo
