RIO DE JANEIRO.-Nailed to
the wall of a great laboratory here
is huge map Of the world, studded
with little pins-round and square,
red and blue and yellow and green.
Each pin marks the spot where yell
low fever has occurred in the past
often in ghastly epidemics.
There are pins all over the map
of Brazil, along the coast and up
the winding path of the Amazon.
There are others all the way from
Buenos Aires to Quebec and from
Chile to Mexico. In the old world,
they appear from the Belgian Con-
90 to the British Isles and particu-
larly on the slave coast of West
Africa.
Today there are some new pins on
the map-in the Nubian Mountains
of the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan In
Central Africa. They mark the new
est outbreak of yellow fever, and
one that may be the most danger
GUS the world has ever known,
threatening unprotected millions in
India, Malaga and China.
New Danger Watched.
The new danger is being watched
here in Brazil's yellow fever labora-
tory, in which the Rockefeller
Foundation is cooperating. 1t is

bon party up the river, Captain Sires
and LaBarge we're in charge Of the
American Fur Co.'S boat, the Nimrod.
At Bellevue the agent was an ex-
Methodist minister. and a jealous adj
vocate Of temperance. 1t was not easy
to deceive this man, who never al
lowed a package or barrel to escape
his scrutiny. He even used a long,
sharp rod, to prod such packages as
he did not open
In preparation for the Bellevue in
spection, the captain concealed the
alcohol in barrels of flour consigned
to Peter A. Sarpy, the agent for the
company at that place. These we're
marked P. A. S. That they contained
alcohol instead Of whisky was owing
to the well known fact, that a gallon
Of diluted alcohol sold as readily as
whisky, with equal results and far
greater profit.
At Bellevue, the Sarpy barrels were
rolled out onto the bank, when they
we're stored in the warehouse. The ex-
came down to the boat, in

! spected. and found nothing to arouse
/ his suspicion. The only trouble seemed
to be the boat was too good. This sci
/ the minister to thinking, and he sta
toned a man at the landing 70 whistle
If he believed anything was wrong.
Nothing unusual happened until
near midnight. except that the steam
was kept up, instead Of allowing the
boilers TO cool. as is customary at
night The Waterman could not have
failed TO notice this. He did not, how
ever, hear or see the barrels taken
from the warehouse and reloaded on
the Nimrod Captain LaBarge was in
charge Of this business. He had laid
tarpaulins on the deck and gangplank
to deaden the noise and soon had his
freight again in the hold. The deck
hands evidently not enlightened re-
garding the contents OF the barrels,
could not understand what was going
on. One asked the other: What does
this mean? These are the same barrels
we unloaded."
Why don't you see" was the reply,
they're marked P. A. S. They've got
to pass And they did.
Line Cut Clean
The Waterman Just then sounded
the whistle and Captain LaBarge
knew what 1t meant. Selling an AK.
he quickly cut the cable. and shouting
to the men to hasten on board, for
the line had parted. he steamed out
into mid-current, and was on his way
up the river. before the agent could
stop him
Fastening down to the landing, the
agent called across to know why the
boat left so early oh" said LaBarge,
'the line broke. and 1t was so near
time to start we thought 1t wasn't
worth while to tie up again"
This explanation did not satisfy the
agent, who may have found the re-
ported broken" line showed no frayed
ends, but a clean cut. AS Chittenden
says, he could not understand how
it happened that the boat was so
thoroughly prepared for such an &C
cident, with steam up, pilot at the
wheel, crew at their places, and all
at so early an hour Next day he
found that the barrels consigned to
Sarpy we're gone, and saw how COM
pletely he had been duped. Mortified
and indignant. he reported the COM
pany to the authorities, and a long
train Of difficulties ensued, with in
effectual threats Of canceling the COM
pany's license. Meanwhile the alcohol
found its intended destination in the
Of the indiana, and the
company reaped the enormous profit
which traffic in that article always
yielded"
Money Sole Thought
These are but two instances Of what
was a regular business during steam
boating days on the Missouri. Not that
all boats engaged in 1t but many did,
and large fortunes were accumulated
through It, To be a pioneer did not
mean that such one was possessed
Of every virtue. Few engaged In trade |

was true Of fur traders and river men

The effect OF the liquor traffic on
the Indians was certain to be disas-
trous, the more so that more money
could be made from the sale Of the
equivalent Of moonshine. than could
be realized from pure whisky. Like all
weaker races, the Indians began to

Audubon's party did not escape the
treatment generally accorded to pill
grims. Audubon's botanist had boasted
Of being able to tell the name Of any
plant by merely seeing the leaf. The
French guide expressed establishment
at hearing this, and said he would
find plant the botanist could not
analyze. Some Indians, who had spent
the preceding winter where the boat
was tied up, had dropped few kerr
nels Of corn and these were now just
beginning to sprout. Carefully digging
up a plant of this, and concealing
all but the leaf, the guide brought
it to the botanist. The latter, not ex-.
pecting to find corn growing in that
part Of the country, could not make
out what kind Of plant it was, and
finally had to confess the fact. The
guide then removed the wrappings
and disclosed the grain of corn, to-
the discontinue of the scientist.

need for priests is being urgently
felt. This Is true of unoccupied
France, where the native supply
of priests, even before the first
World war, had been curtailed
through anti-elerical agitation,
and the resulting loss was not
entirely regained
Hence, many of the French
clergy were educated abroad and
priests of other nationalities, par
ticularly the Irish, were appoint
ed TO French churches. A typical
instance is that of Able Patrick
Flynn. formerly attached to the
famous church of the Madeleine
in Paris, and now Bishop of
Nevers.

DISCUSSING PLANS
TO RECRUIT PRIESTS

Church authorities in Ireland
are now discussing plans to re-
cruit priests TO be sent from Fire
to unoccupied France. Ireland.
which has been noted for its many
vocations to the priesthood, is
also expected to send priests to
other European countries after the
war.
The new institution created by
the Pope is planned to encourage
ecclesiastical vacations. first, by
urging the faithful to aid all who
may be So called; second. to stress
the dignity and necessity of the
priesthood; and third, TO eneour-
age young men to enter the semi
naTies.
The work will be directed
by the Congregation OF Semi
naries and Universities, one
of twelve institutes which car
~ on the administrative
duties of the church in Rome.
The congregation superintends
all matters pertaining TO the
government, discipline, admin
istration, and studies of semi
naries.
Through the work OF the new
institution, steps will be taken to
encourage an increasing number
Of seminarians in countries where
their studies are numbered. The
supply of priests created is ex-
pected TO be used in the work of
reconstruction following the war.

MORE PRIESTS NEEDED
AS RESULT OF WAR

The Pope took another signifi-
cant step this week when he Great
ed the Pontifical Work for Re
ligious Vocation, thereby focus
sing attention on a possible short
age of priests as result of the
war.
Wartime restrictions in Europe
have not only limited the number
OF priests who can engage in &c
clesiastic work. but has sharply
reduced the normal supply of stu
dents. Many seminaries in Ger
many and the occupied countries
have been closed and their facul-
ties dispossessed.
Even in countries not immedi-
stely occupied by the Nszis the
