The "Great White Plague" seems
likely to lose some of its greatness
as the result of the national convention
of the American Anti-Tuberculosis
League which closed at St. lx)uis
recently. The principal demand of
the convention was for legislation
1 against defective cows, it being asserted
that about 9 9 per cent of the
consumptives in the United States
ontract their tuberculosis in raw
milk.
Opposing factions, one advocating
t lie isolation nl!?ii f"'- ??,? ?i........
(of consumptives and the other defending
the present policy ol' treating the
disease in cities, were in combat at
the closing session. The controversy
assumed the form of a debate, I)r.
Walter (J. Tyzzer, superintendent of
the Mayfield Sanitarium, of St. Douis,
representing the isolation advocates,
and Dr. Joseph 13. Chambers, president
of the Ilippocratenn College of
Medicine, of St. Louis, representing
the other faction. The subject of
the debate was:
"Resolved, That tuberculosis can
be more effectively treated in the
isolated arid regions than in hospitals
in cities."
The honors were about even, but
Dr. Tyzzer had the more meritorious
side of the argument, apparently, as
the majority of the delegates not
personally interested in some city institution
were ip his faction.
"Raw Milk" was the title of a paper
submitted by Nathan Straus, the
Now York philanthropist. It was tin
able paper, covering the raw milk
c !i l\ inof Vi AfAturli 1 ir ? ?wl ol/\?i i\ i* %**?#!?
ou?/jvva im?i uu^m,? , iuivi \.iur>ui^ ?ilii
the following three deductions:
"1. That tuberculosis is a preventable
disease.
"2. That raw milk is the common
cause of tuberculosis.
"3. That the peril of tuberculosis
in milk can be absolutely removed by
proper pasteurization."
Ernest J. Lederle, former Commissioner
of Health of New York,
submitted a paper entitled, "Public
Milk Supplies, with Special Reference
to tbh Tuberculosis Problem." He
stated that tuberculosis was now very
prevalent among milk cows and increasing,
and urged legislation aimed
at such consumptive cows.
C. W. Saleeby, of London, England,
spoke on "Potential Homicide,
the Greatest Menace of the Human
Race."
"Sterilization, valuable as it is as
a final safeguard against tuberculosis,
is. after all," said Dr. Donohue, "only
an expedient and must not be put
into so much prominence that the
importance of the other safeguard be
lost sight of. Beyond any puestion,
the ultimate advantage lies in obtaining
milk from cattle free from
disease. It is a fact comparable
with the advantage of obtaining
drinking water from pure source
instead of taking it from a contaminated
one and relying upon purification
afterwards."
Dr. W. H. May field, general secretary
and executive officer of the
American Anti-Tuberculosis League,
predicted in his address that "befoiw
long there will be state and national
laws requiring that inspectors
shall duly examine every cow whose
milk is offered for human use, and
every animal ascertained to be afflicted
even in the slightest degree with
the tubercte bacilli shall be marked
for destruction.
"The mere money cost to the United
States of the plague of tuberculosis
overshadows all other expenditures,"
continued Dr. Mayfield. "The
first five years the United States
army occupied the Philippines the
oost was about $200,000,000; the
second five years $120,000,000, or i
Ntotal of $325,000,000. In 1907 oui
army and navy cost taxpayers $222,
00,000, and with the pension rol
for that year added, makes out.'this
sum to $384,000,000. This is 6'
per cent of the nation's income foi

amounts added together give a tota

According lo a statement of In- ,,

surauce Commissioner McMaster (|
Tuesday, tho affairs of three mutual j
flro companies at Spartanburg ave in- ^
volved and on the face of the returns
it looks as if there has been t
mismanagement of the funds. I]
In the case of the Carolina .Mutual e
under control of Stanyarne Wilson, J1
outstanded contested claims on July
1, 1907 .amounted to $9,907. and c
adjusted claims on the same date to a
$95,897. The amount that should
have been realized was $18,818, and s
the actual amount realized $10,007. v
Contested claims on January 1, 190o. <
amounted to $93,374 and additional c
adjusted claims to $11,871. The 1
account that should have been rcaliz- 1
ed was $10,528 and the actual ^
amount re\lized $5,435. The a mount I
of outstanding claims on May 25, i
was $39,437. i
An examination of the Carolina
iviui 11 {iI s books shows that between <
January 1, 1907, and Juno 6. 190S. 1
$09,3-12 w'ere collocted from all .
sources. Losses In that period wore 1
$38,464. The difference between the I
amount received and that paid out <
in losses excepting $891 was consnin- s

dinarily high. Mr. McMaster shows i
where Wilson received a salary of <
$300 a month through 1 907 and up ?
to March of the current year. After
he resigned as president he got $2 00 <

It can be stated with certainty
hat Mr. IJrynn and Mr. Watterson
lave been in constant correspond- '
nee since the two came together in 1
Cow York two months ago. !
Mr. Watterson was asked for an
xpresBion of opinion on the outlook,
md in substance, said:
"I am merely going to avail rayelf
of a business call to Chicago to
iccopt Mr. Bryan's invitation to run
>ver to Lincoln, There will bo but

iacobs' between him and Mr. Bryan,
But Mr -Tuft can stand 011 no platform
setting forth the Roosevelt policies.
lie is far closer to the Wall
street interests than Fairbanks,
Hughes or Knox. His nomination
means the Republican party wearing
the mask of Roosevelt, but using the
claws of liarriman, Morgan and company.
If Bryan cannot bent this
combine, nobody can. He is its
logical candidate. All suggestions
Lo the contrary are misleading. They
are simply weak devices of the enemy."
"You feel certain that Mr. Bryan's
nomination is already assured?"
"Mr. Bryan said Mr. Watterson,
"will bo nominated by acclamation
at Denver. The only things left outstanding
to be considered by Democrats
are the second place on the ticket,
the platform, and the chairmanship
of the national committee."
Asked about the coming convention
and the general outlook for
Kentucky can be relied upon not to
wreck their bark before she gets out
of port. I do not care what the
Lexington convention does except
that it shows itself fair to all parties.
This I fully appreciate. We Kentucky
Democrats are pretty good
fighters, but in emergencies we know
how to sit down in unity, and to
smoke the pipe of pence. This is an
emerirencv."
THK FIltST VICTIM
Caught in I In* Undertow and Drowned
ut Tybce.
The treacherous tides of Tybee
Deach have claimed their first victim
early this season. Fritz Schv/nlb,
a young man about 10 years
of age, was ciowned thee Suudav
afternoon v) ,'e enjoying a su * brnli.
He and a companion went into the
surf late in the afternoon when the
tide was going out at a great rate of
speed. The young man got into the
undertow and before ho realized his
danger he was being carried out to
sea. When he found that he was in
danger of drowning he grabbed his
companion by his bathing suit and
clung to him with desperation written
upon nis face.
Mr. John Scigcrs, who was with
the victim of the surf, came near being
carried down with liirn and only
Wrenched himself from the grasp of
the drowning man by the greatest
effort. His clothes were partly torn
from his back before he succeeded
in breaking the young man's hold.
After that he did all he could to
save him, but was unsuccessful.
There were several people In bathing
at the time and there were large
crowds on the beach, but the drowning
did not create a great deal of excitoment
in any part of the island ex
cept. in the immediate vicinity in
which it occurred. The body of the
young man was carried out to sea.

A dispatch from Birmingham, Ala.,
says the! parade of the heroes of the
Confederacy Thursday morning was
n fitting climax to what is generally
pronounced to be one of the most
successful reunions of the United
Confederate Veterans. With sprightly
step, measured to the airs the
South loves, the old warriors, no less
than I0.O00 strong, traversed the
two miles of the parade route between
thousands of sympathetic and
interested spectators and there was
not an accident, not a sign of a tottering
step.
Loving hands served ice water to
the old men as they passed along
the route, fans were disturbed and
everything possible was done to relieve
the long tramp of its tedium.
That the heroes were in excellent
spirits was shown by the fact that
many of them sang old camp songs
as they marched, such as "buttermilk
Cavalry," "Old Time Confederates,"
"Bonnie blue Klag."
They were happy and they left a
t rn i 1 of tosivc o <r ......
v ?? ?4i w uiuvfii^ r?^ui;uiiuI H,
Tor every one was touched by the
sentimental appeal made by the appearance
of (he old soldiers. There
wore many in the parade who had
loft a leg, or perhaps both lens, on
some battlefield, but they enjoyed
the occasion as much as the others,
being carried in vehicles. Their appearance
drew forth, if anything,
greater applause than the sight of
the foot soldiers.
The parade formed shortly after
1 I o'clock and required one hour and
4f> minutes to puss a given point.
The route was from Sixth avenue on
Nineteenth street to First avenue, to
Twenty-first street, to Fifth avenue,
to Twentieth street, to First avenue,
countermarching on Twentieth street
to Capitol park, where the reviewing
stand was located. In the vanguard
were eight companies of the local
National Guard. including one battery
of artillery and one troop of
cavalry. Chattanooga had one troop
of cavalry in lino. Gov. n. B. Comer
of Alabama with his entire staff
was next in line. Gen. G. 1'. Harrison,
commander of the Alabama
division, was chief marshal, and Col.
10. J. McCrossin of Birmingham was
chief aide.
Feature of Parade.
The veterans of the department of
the Tennessee headed the line of visitors
of honor, these being followed
by (ho Trans-Mississippi and (ho
Army of Northern Virginia. Among
the more conspicuous companies were
the Forrest cavalry corps, mounted,
and the mounted troop from Nashville
which has attracted a great deal
of attention during tiie reunion.These
companies are regular members of
(he National Guard, being (lie only
onfederate body to have that distinction.
Memphis representatives also came
in for great applause. They were accompanied
by the crack life and
drum corps, which helped to give (lie
martial atmosphere. Probably 110
one person in the parade attracted
more attention than tlie handsome
Miss Tommy Gentry, a fullblooded
Indian maiden who accompanied the
Indian Territory department as sponsor.
Her escort was Adjt. Gen. Colema
'1.
Gen. Clement A. Evans, (he new
ommander-in-chiof, wasat the head of
the column with the entire staff.
The Sons of Veterans followed the
veterans and they were accompanied
by (heir sponsors. A noticeable feature
of the parade was the fact thai
a number of the sponsors preferred
to walk with the companies they represented
rather than ride in the carriages
which had been provided
Miss Mary Hall Gray, accompanied
the Georgia division on foot. Mrs
Kelly of New Orleans, a lady of 7f
years old, went through the march 01
foot as did Miss Edna Raub of Memphis,
who had the title of daughter ol
the company she represented. *

FATAL SHOCK.
Mr. Chas. Lundy Meets Instant
Death From Live Wire.

inn on ? Telephone Wire, Which
Was in ('untuct With Live Klcctrio
Wiro. The I'nfortuuato Man Utul
Keen Kiiorkcil From Wire Hometime
Ago. i
The Columbia State says thotie who
watched Charles Lundy ascend a
telephone pole on upper Main street
Thursday about noon saw him roach
for a cable, fall across two wires
and, while sparks flow from every
metal substance on his person, saw
him make only one convulsive Jerk
and realized that he had been electrocuted.
About 3,150 volts hud passed
through his body and the unfortunate
lineman had died almost instantly.
For fully 15 minutes the
body hung across the wires in midair
though some of those who saw
the tragedy telephoned at once to
the telephone ami <?!.?* ri..
w.wvi iv |?v; ??ui UUUi panics
to have all current shut off
until Lundy could be brought down.
The request was not very promptly
compiled with. In the meuntimo medical
aid was summoned* but it was
too late. One-third of the amount
of voltage would have been sufficient
to cause death even to those who are
used to heavy shocks.
The death of Mr. Lundy is the climax
of a series of accidents witli
which he met while at work on the
wires, and his announced intention of
seeking some other vocation makes
his death peculiarly sad. Some time
before ho became employed by the
city he was nearly killed by a shock
received in the lower part of the
county. About six weeks ago he was
knocked from a pole on lower Gorvais
street and the injuries received
laid him up until lnfet Monday. Ho
went to work again this week and at
the time he met death was engaged
in stringing some of the city wires
to a patrol box to be placed about two
blocks above 101 m wood avenue for the
section just admitted to the city. It.
is supposed that he touched the service
wire of the telephone company
which had crossed with the heavily
charged wire of the electric power
company and perhaps the dampness
and wire he carried formed a short
circuit which resulted in the entire
voltage passing through his body.
Mayor Reamer and Chief Cat heart
wore at mo city hall when the news
iof the accident was telephoned in
and both went at once to the scene.
The body was taken down and after
being viewed by the coroner was ordered
moved. The affair created considerable
excitement in the neighhood
and a very large crowd gathered
to witness the removal of the
body.
Mr. Lundy resided on Gadsden
street and was ahout 82 years of age.
lie came here from Darlington some
time ago and is survived by his wife,
who was a Miss Price, and one child.
Since his accident some time ago he
has been continued on the pay rool
of the city and Mayor Reamer, who
was shocked by the accident, was
gratified to learn that it was through
no fault of tlie city that Dundy met
his death.
Coroner Walker, on being notified,
empaneled a jury, which brought in
the usual verdict, that the deceased
came to his death while working on
a telephone i*>le by coming in contact
with an electric light wire.
