DESCRIBES BALKAN WAR.
Frederick Moore Speaks Before Geographic
Society.
Frederick Moore, American war cor- '
respondent recently returned from the
lighting lines in the vicinity of Constantinople,
addressed the National Geographic
Society yesterday afternoon and last
night, his lecture being illustrated with a
number of pictures showing the battle
lines near the Chataldja. The lecture was
an "extra" in the winter course of the
society.
Mr. Moore gave a graphic description
of the slaughter and accompanying panic
in the Turkish army as the Balkan allied
forces drove the Turks back to their :
last line uf defense. the pictures showing 1
the fleeing bodies of Turkish soldiers, the
pitifully crude hospital tents, medical and
eubslster;e departments and picturing
the panic -stricken soldiers of the sultan
as they were driven toward the city.
Mr. Moore also pa d a high tribute to 1
tile work of the officials of the American <
embassy at Constantinople in relieving !
suffering and battling against the spread i
of cholera among the troops and the 1
jKjpulace. He showed pictures of the (
camps established through the efforts of
the Americans, where shelter, food and
medical attention were given to thousands I
of plague-stricken soldiers and civilians.

D. A. Edwards, president of tho Fedcr- c
ation of Citizens* Associations, also made p
an address touching upon topics of gen- t
eral interest to the District, dealing es- 1
peciallv with the improvements of the a
streets and highways. In speaking of s
the reclamation of the Anaeostia flats ii
Mr. Edwards paid a tribute to Commis- a

for commencing this work, after f
earnest effort hud been made for twenty- tj

county courthouse is to be located with- _
in a few days. and the building will be v
taken up at once If plans set on foot Sat- e

Crocker has been authorized to ma?te
any "necessary measurements and such
tentative agreements as are possible for
rights of way, and will submit estimates
to the board of supervisors at a called j
meeting.
A halt in the building of walks in the
county is due to a question raised by Attorney
R. C. L?. Moncure regarding tut
legality of the act under which the spe- ^
elal tax for walks and lights was collected
last fall, but it has now been de- s
cidcd to go ahead. ^
Supervisor Wibirt, with Survfeyor t
'"rocker and several citizens, went over 0
the proposed route Saturday from Colonial
station to the courthouse. They then
considered locating the walk on Washing- *
ton street and Alexandria avenue. This fl
route would rim fromJColonial to Pieckett's i
corner along the existing path, just as the e
other proposed route docs; but front Pica- r
ett's the walk, under the second proposal,
will run across the Boston road, follow
Westmoreland street one block to Alex- ^

and follow Alexandria avenue to Arling- v
ton street at WT A. Bobb's residence, n
thence one block south ou Arlington
street to Washington street, and thence ?
west on Washington street up the hill to 1

tt TO CHILDREN IN
TUBERCULOSIS FAMILIES
lompulsory Removal of Patients
Advocate as a Preventive
Measure.
The necessity for further municipal conrol
of tuberculosis was brought out at
n experience meeting held Monday
vening at the rooms of the Association
or the Prevent ion of Tuberculosis, n
ook, however, the form of a symposium
n the topic: "The Spread of Infection
ti Tuberculous Families."
Amonp those who participated in the
iseusslon were Dr. A. L. Murray of the
lealtli department, Dr. \V. T. Tewkslury,
superintendent of the Municipal
'uliereulosis Hospital; Dr. Charles A.
'fender of the Children's Hospital, Miss
sabel L. Strong, superintendent of the
nstructive Visiting Nurse Society; Mrs.
million Kd wards, Miss Olive Cordon and
liss M. H. Pierson. special visiting
lurses to tuberculous lainllies.
Contracted in Childhood..
The point especially emphasized in the
liscussion was the necessity for securing
. law for the compulsory removal of
latients who refuse to observe rules of
tygicne. Many cases were cited where
he disease is contracted because of I he
efusal of the patient either to go to the
lospital or to observe ordinary rules of
rotection in the home. The danger of
he infection of children wpo are paricularly
susceptible to the disease was
nentioned by several of the speakers. Atention
was called to the conclusions of
nvestlgators whose findings are generally
iccepted, namely, that the disease is
ilniost invariably contracted in childlood;
that where the bodily resistance
s good the germs remain latent, but
where the environment is unfavorable the
,rerms are likely to become active, the
noral being that everybody should pracice
proper rules of hygiene in order to
reep the body resistance strong.
A common cause of infection in the
tome, which in the opinion of many of
he speakers does not receive sufficient
Lttention, is the habit of coughing or
neezing without protecting the mouth or
?ose by holding a hapdke chief in front
>f it. The fine spray produced by such
:oughing on the part of an active case

"William H. Baldwin, for the committee a

attempt to' secure action looking to pro- ^
viskrn for two school nurses in the appropriation
bill now under discussion, and ?
also passage of the bill foiv the compulsory
removal of dangerous and careless

who before entering the room had been j
suffering from bronchial trouble, huU j
the trouble had disappeared during the j
attendance, and of another pupil suffering j
from nervous trouble which had been al- c
layed by the fresh-air treatment. Unfor- c
tnnafely, on leaving the room by proino- p

Carboli? Acid by Mistake.
' William Y. Clarke, sixty-two years old,

quantity of carbolic acid Half an hour
before he died he went to a room in the
rear of the store and drank the poison
from a whisky flask, another flask that
contained whisky having been on the
shelf where the carbolic acid bottle was
kept.

druggist gave him an antidote and summoned

and was a member of Typographical

two sisters. He bought the cigar store
about three months ago. Relatives explained
that the room in the rear of the
-tore was dark when lie entered.
