BANNER YEAR IN TUBERCULOSIS
WAR.
More Organizations Formed and
Institutions Established In
1909 Than Ever Before.
' Interest in the anti-tuberculosis cam
paign now being waged throughout the
United States is evidenced by the fact that
in the year 1909, 163 new anti-tuberculosis
associations were formed, 133 tubercnlosis
sanatoria and hospitals were established,
and 91 tuberculosis dispensaries were
opened. Compared with previous years,
this is the best record thus far made in the
'fight againstconsumption in this country.
Daring the year 1909, forty-thee more
associations for the prevention of tuber
cnlosis were formed than during the pre
vious twelvejmonths, and sixty-two more
hospitals and sanatoria were established.
Onjanuary'i, 1910, there were in the
United States 394 Anti-tuberculosis asso
ciations, 386 hospitals and tuberculosis
sanatoria and 265 special tuberculosis dis
pensaries.
Dnring the year that has passed, the
sanatoria and hospitals of this country
treated over 31,000 patients, giving a total
of nearly 3,200,000 hospital days’ treat
ment. Of the 31,000 patients treated,
abont one-half were discharged as im
proved to a greater or less extent, and a
large percentage of the incipient cases
were discharged as cured. Althougber
there are nearly 20,000 hospital beds pro
vided in the entire United States for
tuberculosis patients, or about one bed
for every 30 patients. The 386 associ
ations have 90,000 members and are con
tributing close to a million dollars every
year for the fight against tuberculosis.
The 265 dispensaries treated during the
year over 60,000 patients, who made over
500,000 visits.
The following table shows the results
of the year 1909, compared with previous
years:

If the year thatjhas passed has been a
recordbreaker in point of number, it has
also broken many records in point of in
terest which it has aroused. Never before
have so many different groups been work
ing for one common end. At the present
time, schools, women’s clubs, labor
unions, chnrches, children’s organization,
state legislature, municipal bodies, insur
ance companies, fraternal organizations,
bill posters, laymen and doctors of every
creed and color are all banded together
in one effort to rid this country of con
sumption.
Delaware Man Finds Gold Coins.
When David Hickman, near Cam
bridge, Del., went after the furniture left
him by his uncle, the late William K.
Scarborough, he came across something
that he did not expect to find. He was
looking through a handsome walnut
wardrobe which Mr. Scarborough had
built himself, and he found carefully
packed away in a secret drawer over one
/ thousand dollars in S2O gold pieces, two
hundred dollars in other gold and silver,
and several hundred dollars in paper.
Mr. Hickman immediately carried the
money to the bank and reported his find
to the Orphans' Court. The total amount
was over SISOO. —Dover Index. s

The tall Sycamore from Rising Sun
Stood proudly leaning on his trusty gun.
He was the Cheese, the Mighty Swell,
For hadn’t folks said he could shoot like—
that is, quite well!
On the grounds about were shooters galore,
German, McCarthy, Mink and Moore,
But when the Big Noise stepped up to his
place.
Their knees smote together, they grew pale
of face.
Not a creature stirred, not even a mouse.
As Our Hero stepped forward, as bigas a
house.
And called with a voioe, which roared like
the wind:
“Let ’er go, boys/I’ve got' you all skinned!" :
Bang! Bang! went his gun; but such is fate,
Out of fifteen birds he only got eight!
Then he swore loudly according to code,
"There’s something wrong with this gol
darned load!”
Quietly we watched this Man from the Sun.
As sadly he packed his once trusty gun;
While ’tween his clenched teeth, he mutter
ed, “What’s more,
I expect to shoot well by the time I’m
two-score.”
Sutton Case To Be Reopened.
The famous Sutton case is to be reopen
ed. Congess is to be asked in resolutions
to make a thorough investigation of the
death of Lieutenant James N. Sutton, of
the Marine Corps, who was found dead on
the grounds of the Naval Academy at
Annapolis, on the night of November 13,
1907, immediately following a fist fight
with several brotbef officers. Senators
Chamberlian and Bourne will father, the
movement. a
Almost at the same time that Congress
is asked to investigate, Mrs. Sutton’s
attorneys will take the matter up with the
Federal Grand Jury in Baltimore. Mrs.
Sutton declares she has a letter from
Lieutenant Roelker, an eyewitness of the
affair, who disappeared at the time of the
court-martial, and that she has found the
sentry who was doing guard .duty, and
who says he saw the man who shot
Sutton.

No More Cents In Rural Mall Boxes
Complaints against the practice of put
ting cents in the rural mail boxes, have
become so widespred that the Post-office
Department has issued instructions to all
postmasteVs at rural delivery offices, that
after February 15, the practice of taking
the cents out of the boxes will be discon
tinued. Estimates show that practically
300,000,000 one cent pieces have been
taken from the boxes annually and the
department has been forced to adopt this
measure on account of the delivery of the
mail matter.
The work of taking the census though
out the country will commence April 25th.

An exehange says: When it is not safe

to thaw them, spead a cloth thickly with

produced as the lime slakes is great
enough to thaw the ice.
