Dr. A. C. Hojrt, of this pity, exhib ited before the teachers three sub jects suffering from the disease. The first subject, was a boy \l years of age, whom he had treated*nd cured; another, a girl of 16 yeai# of age he had under treatment . , Dr. Page stated that pmong the first symptoms of Hookworm were the dryness of the hair In advanced cases, a soreness in the pit of the stsmacb, the pupils of the eye dilated, tongue coated -showing a ,Uck of blood Tfce doctor stated that Ml* child was properly shod he would not contract the disease unless Inoculated through tbo month. Said that bare feet had a tendency to produce Hook worm. He stated that the aversge life of the Hookworm was 10 years. Let tuce be claimed was one of th* vege tables that brought on thta disease, due to Its growth near the earth, but If It were properly washed, before eating, a great deal of the danger would be eliminated. No meats should be eatsn during the tlnqe a patient Is taking medicine as It dis solves the dru^. Said since th? dls esse had been treated In Porto RICo. out of twelve hundred cases, no deaths had taken place. He said whst will prevent typhoid fever will also accomplish the same purpose as to Hookworm.

In every town and village and country Id Ten nessee, the State's serious political situation ha? aroused the most In tense feeling. Regular Democrats ?nd Insurgent Democrats and Repub licans are lining up their forces for the struggle which comes In. Aurfust, a- hen the Btate judlcary and county ilectlons are held. Up to the present time no candl lat to oppose Governor M. R. Pat terson has been announced either by the Insurgent Democrats or the Re publican forces nor is there any likely to be named by tbe latter party until ifter the August election. Over In ?ast Tennessee the Republican strong> told, there are several prospective candidates, but none has actually taken the -field- Governor Patterson la now making his campaign speeches in support of th Judiciary candidates nominated at the regular Democratic primary held In June. It Is this contest which Is now at tracting wide attention and which is causing such Intense feeling. Three of the Supreme Court judge* declined to enter lnto^the Democratic primary, alleging that Governor Pat terson and his administration had at tempted to coerce the judiciary. Their partisans called a contention and these three were re-nomlnated along with two others. The two other jus tices entered Into the primary and lined up with the administration party, thus securing re-nomination. Three opposition candidates were lamed to run against the three so called bolting justices. The saiqe state of affairs exists in the contest tor the judgeships of the court of civil appeals. The pardoning of Duncan Cooper, who was convicted for the slaying of the late United States Senator E. W. Carmack, has been made an issue in the present campaign. The prohibition question, which ivas the chief and practically sole is tue In the last gubernatorial con test, has apparently been lost sight of, but the administration forces have openly declared that If they are vic torious In the August election steps wllll>e taken to have the law repealed It the next BSSion Of th Legislature PKK ACHING VERSUS EDITING. Editing a newspaper in som< aspects Is a good dot! like ^reaching the gospel ? truth must te presented In the form of general! ies or some fellow will get hit and towl. Few persons like truth, even n homeopathic doses if It hit* them lut, while preachers and editors arc ritldaed for what they do soy, nc ?ne thinks of giving them credit foi rhat they do not say. Yet what hey keep to themselves constitute! he ntror port'on of wh.*t they know i bout people. Very many people harbor the be lef that newspapers are eager tc >ubl1sh derogatory things. It's i aiatake. There isn't a newspapei hat could not spring a sensation ii he community at any time bj merely tellng what it knows. Then s not k newspaper that does not teep under the lock of secrecy scorei if drogatory things which never meet he public eye or reach the publl< tar. Deciding what, not to print li he most troublesome part of news taper work. How many good stories are sup iressef* of Innocent relatives ant 'or the public good nobody outside i tewspaper office has any idea of. In some instances he who flies inU i pasalon because a newspaper print! omething about him which he consid srs uncomplixhentary has every rea ion to feel profoundly grateful t< he newspaper for publishing so llttl< >f what It knows about him. An t rfttlmes the loudest bluffer is th< nost vulnerable to attack. A bi( lolse Is often a device employed t< rover trepidation. Newspapers put up with mori >lofftng than any other agency woul< tndure. It Is not because they lacl rourage; it Is' because they sre un billing to use their porter to deatro] >r ruin unless tha interest of so :iety* imperatively demand It.

Hope that 1 the conference tomorrow between tilt members of their committee and Gen eral Manager Myers of the Pennsyl vania aKIlroad Company, will result In a clear understanding of the! r de minds and the necessity for a strike averted, was expresed today by A. B. Oarrlston, president of the Order o. Railway Conductors, and W. G. Lee. the head of the Brotherhood of Train men. While the head of the conductors' organization was reticent and refusec to add anything to the statements he has already made public regarding the controversy Mr. Lee declared his belief that the ten-hour standard the men ask for could be put Into effect by the company without making an> sacrifice. A CONFERENCE TODAY. Many of the delegates from the va rious local unions left the city last night and conferred with the mem bership of their organizations today but all will be present at the confer ence tomorrow at 11 o'clock In the offlce of the general manager. While tuere In a feeling that peace may be arranged at this conference both aides declare they will not recede from the positions they have already taken. The labor leaders will con tinue to hold out for the ten-hour day and the railroad officials while willing to grant this are unwilling to increase the expenses of their road. The over time may be the sub ject of a compromise proposition. It It said. The Pennsylvania Railroad officials had no statement to give out today, but they appear hopeful that tomor row's conference may avert the threatened strike. Nevertheless they are continuing their preparations to cope with the emergency of a walk COMMITTEE RESTS OX ITS OARS Pittsburg, Pa., July 17. ? "We are just resting on our oars," announced tonight the committee representing the conductors, trainmen and fire men, having in charge the contro versy with the Pennsylvania lines west over wages and working con ditions. Awaiting the hour of con ference with General Manager G. L. Peek at 11 o'clock tomorrow morning the committeemen rested Quietly about the headquarters in the Colo nial hotel, but would not dlacuss pos sibilities or probabilities. There was not a development that Indicated the slightest anxiety on the part of the men or what repre sentatives of the company could be reached. Despite the feeling In this section that the controversy will be settled amicably the railroad company is busy with preparations for caring for men who will work. The extent of these is evidenced by the activity around the Pittsburg shops and freight cars are being fitted up with bunks and tables, and coaches are being con verted into dining cars. At the futon station the opinion seems to prevail that even though a large majority of union men voted to uphold the demands, enough men will remain to keep trains moving un til new men can be broken in ae trainmen.
