The term” farewell tour” is at last

Helena Modjeska is now in the midst
of a tour that is a farewell in the most
unqualified sense of the word. Never
after this season will she appear on
the public stage in America. She has
given her word to her manager, Mr

ied with the great actress know that
Iher word Is as good as het bond. The
frequency with which such faith bas
been violated by actresses and singers
some of them having a dozen fare
wells, has made Madame Modjeska
all the more careful that hers will be

LAMOUREUX ARRESTED.
Assemblyman Accused at Bosten of
Accepting an Bribe.
BOSTON, March 8 — 8 John La-
moureux of North Adams Republican
representative in the legislature from
the Second Berkshire district, was ar-
rested here on an Indictment returned
by the Suffolk county grand jury
charging him with corruptly request.
Ing and accepting a gratuity
The Indictment, which was a bulky
document, consists of four counts and
alleges that Lamoureux received $180
| from William H. McMasters of this
icity on a promise to Influence two
members of the legislative committee
aginst a certain bill now pending In
the legislature. Lamoureux, who, at
the opening of the session of the house,
asked the members to suspend judg
ment, went directly to the courthouse
and was arraigned before Judge
Brown In the superior court, where
be pleaded not gulity to the charge.
Assistant District Attorney Dwyer
immediately asked for a speedy trial
of the case, claiming that there was
danger of an executive investigation
which under the law would render Im-
mune from appearing In court a num-
ber of witnesses who It was desired to
examine at the trial. Judge Brown
refused the request, although District
Attorney Moran stated that Lamou-
reux’s counsel was as anxious for a
quick disposition of the case
Judge Brown sald he saw po reason
to disturb the regular trial fist. La-
moureux was then sdmitted to $2,000
hall furnished by friends and was
taken to police headquarters, where he
went through the formality of Weing
recorded.
Lamoureux was born In North

IN CRITICAL STATE.
Young Son of Fresldent Hoosevelt
Has Relapse and Sinking Spell.
WASHINGTON, March 8 — Archie
Rousevelt, the young son of the presi
dent, bas had a relapse and s sinking
spell, and Drs. Rixey, Kennedy amd
Mason have held a consultation, with
Dr. Alexander Lambert of New York,
who was summoned by a telegraiu
from President Roosevelt,
Miss Ethel Roosevelt, who was stay
{ lng at the home of Dr. Risey, has re
i turned to the White House
{ Ir. Lambert arrived last night fron
| New York to join lo the consultation
Just previous to his arrival furthe:
doses of antitoxin were Injected lute
the patient. His condition Is critical
It is reported that the president has
telegraphed hs sons Theodore Junior
and Kermit, the, former at Harvan)
and the latter at Gndon, to come to
Washington, although at the executive
offices this was neltber confirmed por
denbed .
President Roosevelt remains at his
son's bedside. When Drs. Kennedy
and Pryor left the White House th
stated that If Archie's vitality held

isoing faculties Christopher Columbus

thousands of years earlier. Give me
the benefit of your reasoning powers
I am well aware that smallpox, in
the western world, is dying out; but
is it due to vaccination or merely co-
incident with it? ‘Tne fatter view can
easily be proved
In the first place, no student of pes
tilence could expect anything else,
than it must die out as othejy ex-
otic diseases have done when left to
{the ordinary circumstances which
such diseases have to meet In civilized
end northern countries. Every other
great scourge has yielded to these in-
fluences, why not this? If it should
{remain here it would simply be a sur-
{prise in epldemology If it did not
{take Its departure scientists
{would set on foot an investigation for
the purpose of discorering what pecu-
lar advantage It possessed that en-
abled it to maintain its tenure. Sup-
pose that this advantage should prove
to be the agent that had been
employed for its extermination Has
this soldier, enlisted for public duty,
proved to be a Benedict Arnold There
seems to be something besides nature
at work. | may conclude to devote a
special article to “vaccination as a
traitor” just for the purpose of hav-
ing a tilt with the doctor on this more
scientific aspect of the subject
I am obliged, for the sake of clear-
ness, to object to the use, by Dr. Cum-
mings, of the words vaccination and
inoculation a8 synonymous Messe
words have come to have a technical
meaning and should be used accord-
ingly. Inoculation, In the considera-
tion of this subject, means the intro-
duction of the virus of smallpox Into
the system and should not be
where other virus Is meant
Early in the 18th century smallpox
showed a marked tendency to die out
but the meddiers of that time would
not let it alone. They commenced to
inoculate and thereby kept it alive
There is practically no limit to the
evidence of this. Smallpox lucreaced
constantly and reached its maximum
during the later half of the century,
though it had had a marked decrease
for a Yong time previously. Dr. Heb-
erden. writing In 1801 and remarking
the fact that the middle and Ligher
orders of society generally adopted
the practice and that “the poor who
have little care of preserving their
lives beyond the getting their dally
bread’ and who had strong prejudices
against it and could not afford It at
any rate. "Hence, while the fnocu'a-
tion of the wealthy keeps up a per-
petual source of infection,” these poor
were continually exposed. Dr. Heber-
den continues: “and the danger is
still Increased by the inconsiderate
manner in which It has lately been
the custom; to send into the open alr
persons in every stage of the disease,
