EilenbeTger delivered t;is illustrated lecture last night on rub eronlosis—How to Prevent and How to Onre It. " It was a most interesting and instructive discourse. «r In;opening!he adverted'to the Span ish American war, tlie capture of Manila, the fall of Santiago and the destruction of the Spanish fleet, All of this was secured by the sacrifice of human life. A much greater victory, however, was secured over disease and death, a victory which resulted in saving thousands of lives. Reference was had to the prevalence of yeilcw fever in Cuoa and the daring experi ments of Drs Heed, Carrell and Lazi er, two of whom died as the result, but not until they satisfa torilv prov ed the theory that the poison of yel low fever is carried from one fever victim to another by mosquitoes. Others quickly made an application of tiie dearly acquired knowledge. The harbors an.l marshes were quickly Cleaned up; coal oil was applied to the breeding places of the mosi;uitc and for the first time in centuries Cub. was freed from yellow fever. These men were martyrs to their calling,bu' what a splendid victory they secured No more do the people of our soutl tremble with fear lest yellow fever in vade the land. Its nature is known The agent that formerly spread ii abroad is recognized. Typhoid fever is also preventable. There is a decline from :i:)0 deaths tc 9!! per million people as a result ol better sanitation and, especially, o \>et:er drinking water. Diphtheria scarlet fever measles and kindred sick nesses would disappear if all who art afflicted with them could be quarant lned and all sources of contagion conic be disinfected. The prevention of disease has beer the motto of many medical leaders, ii is the niotto of Dr. Dixon and the de partrnent of health of Pennsylvania The most fatal illness in Pennsyl van ia duriDg 1907 vas tuberculosis the deaths exceeding 30,000. Pneu monia, a condition not infrequent!.! associated with tuberculosis, was s olose second, also with approximate'. t toe thousand deal is to its credit THE TUBERCLE BACILLUS. The tuoercle bacillus is the well known agent that is present in every Instance of tuberculosis, bat .t is nol the only factor in its production. It if numerously present wherever men are congregated. It is found in all tuber culous iesious, although not alwa.s it the same rmio. It is especially numer ous in advanced cases of consumption. Such a one will expel millions, possi bly billions of tubercle bacilli in 2-i hours. Wherever the sputum of a con sumptive may be there may the germi of the disease be found. They are us ually present in the mouth and on the lips from which they may be trans ferrer. to a drinsing vessel. Recently physicians secured tumblers that had been used hy n number of school chil dren and examined them under tiie microscope. They found much dirt on tiie r m including mud, particles ol Skin, also germs of various diseases. The germß of tuberculosis were there. Tiie I'erms responsible for consuuit tion,diphtheria, toiißilitis and kindred diseases are so small tiiat numbers of them may rest upon a pin point. A Correspondingly small break in the skin or mucus membrane may serve as au open dcor through which they may enter the system. If one is in perfect health he may kill the germs. Under other conditions, however, the germs may kill the individual The dest from rooms in which tuberculous pati ents have lived has been found to con tain active germs as late as six weeks after the removal of tiie patient. Among the lantern slides was a view showing a houie in .Tuniata county, Which doling teu years has been oc cupied by three separate families and in which during that period nine oocupants have died of tuberculos is. Eleven ether occupants have had the same disease. In ten years JO peo ple who have occupied tiiiß house have had consumption. Homes in which the disease exists should be disinfected and rendered safe. They should then have been kept so by the admission of an abun iant supply of sunlight and fresh air. one exception the motion pict ure shows in Chester have been dosed on account of the new law. which re quires thet they shall have a centre aisle< of four feet in width, and two tide aisle*. jUBt as wide. TO KILL ROSE LEAF HOPPER At tills season of the year, when the roses are iu bloom, the damaging ef fects of the Leaf-hoppers, or "white bogs" under rose leaves, are uioet noticeable, because everybody is at tracted to the beautiful blooms, and then confronted with the spectacle of blenched and withering leaves and bashes beiug denuded of foliage. The rose leaf hopper i 6 most active iu its operations about the n.M:tle of June. Prof. H. A. Surface, the State Zoologist, says : "It hat a piercing or suctoria! mouth, and con sequently does not eat away the tisst e of the plant, but Injects a poison and suets the juices. Owing ta their im mense numbers- they cause consider able damage. The eggs are laid on the aider side if the leaves. The young art! hatched there, and first IOOK lite small white plant lice, bus are active and run qoicklv. The white cast-off eiics remain on the under sides of the leaves. The young insects have no wings, and, therefore, do not fly, aad cannot escape the inaei ticides applied as sprays. When full grown they are light In color and winged, and jump and fly quickly, and may escape the spray. Where the hoppers ate at work the upper sides of the leaves will pre sent a grayish appearance along the mid rib-. The whitened leaf denotes their presence. "Spray she under sides of the leaves with a solution made by dissolving oue pound of whale oil soap in sis gallons of water,or with a very strong tobacco decoction, or eight per cent, kerosene emulsion or a very strong so lution of any kind of soap. Being sucking insects, they can not be billed by the arsenical poisons, which are used effectively against the chewing insets. If the insects hop to the ground you can destroy them by spray ing the ground with a stronger solu tion which will not there do any in ur.v to the plants. Tragic Tale of a Tragedian. "The awfulest and the funniest stage wait I ever lived through," said it sprightly English actress, "was when a certain well known London actor manager, whose tioino I dare not divulge, was doing a tremendous cttrso scene on a darkened stage. lie had the audience spellbound with his sonorous declamation, which, of course, they didn't know depended largely upon his ample mouthful of false teeth. At the very climax of his Wood curdling maledictions the entire dental collection dropped out suddenly in the excitement of the moment and bound id into some obscure hiding place. The tragedian's mighty voice died down to an unintelligible mumble as he groped about frantically In search of the miss ing masticators. We were all too help less from laughter to 'no of much help in this critical situation. At last, after what seemed like half an hour of the most hysterical suspense, the stage manager located the teeth with the aid of a dark lantern and restored them to the frantic star, who clappe<l them into his mouth and began cursing again with redoubled earnestness. I never knew what the audience thought, and no one ever darfd to ask the actor manacer."—Ne.w York World. A Fixed Law. "You are positive this happened on Tuesday?" demanded counsel.

Mebus of the firm of A 1 bright and Mebns,engineers who made the plans for the sewage dispoeal pUut i at the hospital for the iusane, by re- i quest while on a visit to this city, | Monday, gave some valuable interna- | tion relating to tiie new plans for sewerage,conveying the sewage to one outlet, and the purification of sewage before it is discharged into the river, which plans under the extension of time granted by Health Commissioner Dr. Dixon the municipality will have to furnish by November 30th. Mr. Mebufe is regarded as an expert on sewerage and sewage disposal plants and he was invited to meet tiie bor ough council in special session Mon day night Unfortunately, tiiere was not a quoram present. Mr. Mebas, however, iu au informal way proceed ed to state his views as to the pro position. What was especially illuminating in 111- talk was the statement that the proposed plans will cost the borougli at leßrt £2500. He would not commit himself to the statement that the cost might not b3 considerably more Mr. Mebns has been closely identifi ed witli the Mate department of health for years past and lie knows precisely what is required by such plans as Dr. Dixon lias asked for. He explained in detail the enormous amount of work involved to pro iuce a map or plans Hush as required taking iu not only the present borougli bat extensions in all directions such as are likely to oc cur daring the next thirty years. The labor involved on such i\ map is all high priced and the firm getting ap the plans, be said, would be obliged to employ a good many men. Mr. Mebus said that at len-t ■f!,,joo would have to be paid out for work done. The greater care and attention to de tail woaid be required in getting ap the plans; otherwise they wonld not be accepted by Dr. Disou. iu which event they wonld be a total loss. The map must show not only every street, alley and building in the borough bat also the contour of the ground. If ap proved by the State department of health it will prove a valuable asset of the borough. It is understood that Albright and Mebus will putin a bid tor the work. Their proposal will be submitted at the next meeting of council In the interim an estimate will be made which will enable the to state the ex aot figure at which they can make the plans. Albright and Mebus will guar antee their plans, which Implies that they will be approved by Dr. Dixon. Pleasant Surprise.

The following report rf the work of the Danville Y Men's Christian Association for the twelve months be tween May Ist, l»08 ami May Ist, 1 DC!), has been prepared for The Morning News by Cieueml Secretnry Mauley from the report which he presented at a recent meeting of the bosid of di rectors of the association. The report contains a uurnber ot interesting items, revealing activity along linos which are not generally known to be includ ed in V. M. C. A. work. In otir report last year we made some suggestions tor thefntnre. From some of these suggestions came plans which later became realities—there are others which are still plnns. We are glad to be able to report, however, that ad vancement has been made along al most every line of association activity. in the religions work department 7 men's meeting have been held with an average attendance of over 100; !113 boys have attended the 15 boys' stere | opticoti meetings and 84« men have ! listened to the gospel in the 31 shop j meetings conducted.

Nineteen visits to the sick wer : made during the year, twelve directfci to boarding houses and four situation secured. There has been more than usual act ivity in the physical department While the total attendance at tin gymnasium classes has not been s< great as last year the attendance at al physical privileges has been greater This Is due not to lack of Interest ii the cla?8 work but to increased inter est in other physical work and also i: other departments of the association. That the classes have been well at t-nded and the work well done wa e- ldeuced by the excellent showing a the exhibition given. The association has also taken a active part in foot ball, base ball basket ball, tenuis,track athletics aui Held sports. in membership there hat beenagaii of nearly .5 per cent, sinre last rcpor and the average da .v attendance ha Increased more than ">0 per cent. Financially the association, like ev erv organization of similar nature i has suffered. What steps it may b< necessary in the future to take we cai only conjecture. It is hoped that i will not be necessary to decrease it efficiency because of lack of funds. The installation of electric light i a feature that should net be passec without mention. The utilitv and at tractiveness of the building has beet greatly increased by the addition Ou; thanks are due to tiie borough council for their action in regard to furnish ing current, and to the men who bj their financial aid made possible tlx necessary wiring, we also owe a debt of gratitude. To the members of the Ladies Anxili ary, who have so unselfishly laborec for the success of; the association, we are also greatly indebted. The verj substantial financial aid furnished UE and the assistance in the many social events of the year have been very much appreciated. Golden Horseshoes. Roman writers inform us that Com modus caused the hoofs of his horse to bo gilded. Nero when he undertook short Journeys was always drawn by mules that had silver shoes, arid those of lils wife, Poppaea, had shoes of gold. From a passage in "I>lo Casslus" there is reason to think that the upper part only was formed of those noble metals or that they woro perhaps plat ed out of thin slips. AVhen Boniface, marquis of Tuscany, one of the richest princes of his time, wont to Beatrix, about the year 1038, his whole train was so magnificently decorated that his horses were shod with silver. The nails were oven of the same metal. His Selection. Mr. Brown and his family wore standing In front of the lions' cage.

A great physician once remarked that, despite its complexity, there was j no organ of the body readier to adapt ] itself to circumstances or more capa- I ble of repaying ordinary care than the | heart. This is very true, aiul an ap- I preciatlon of that fact should cause us ; all the more carefully to follow the | wise man's advice and to keep our J heart with all diligence. When we ! have regard to the tremendous work | the heart accomplishes we might well I with 'Wesley say, "Strange that a harp of a thousand strings should keep in tune so long." Estimated ins untitle ! fashion, a man's heart in tv.\ :>nr i hours perforins an amount oi work which if represented by the energy dt manded for a big lift wquld raise 1" i tons of weight one foot high. Such a calculation can be accurately deter mined by measuring the force expend ed in one beat or cycle of movement of the heart and multiplying the short work into that of the day. Thus in no small degree does the heart's labor contribute to swell the big total of the energy the human engine expends each day it lives.—New York World.

C. float, Harry Ropp, Major Charles F Gearhart, John G. Waite. Walter O Green aud J. O. Mincemoyfr. It was decided to enlist the aid of the merchants of town in the project. It was believed that if the business men could be induced to close their stores and other establishments for half a day aud hie thein off to the woods that one of the biggest picnics that ever took place iu Danville would result. Although the committee wants the proceeds of the outing for a mum mers' parade, yet it is to be d'stinc [ tively a merchants' picuic aud is to he known by that name. The place of holding the picnic as well as the dat« is to be left with the merchants. Those present at the meeting resolv ed themselves into a committee of the whole to wait upon the merchauts and see how they might regard the pro position. By last evening a large num her of the business men had been seen ; as a rule they all tcok kindly to the project. It will be a few days Liter before tiie outcome of the matter will | be made known.
