Etate- board of health, who has been leading a crusade against consumption In this state along with his general program of pure food, hygiene and better health generally, spoke before the Richmond Chautauqua Tuesday afternoon, and although the lecture was a disappointment in some respects, it vas a valuable one, and no doubt set a number to thinking along a line to which they had given liti-e attention before. The lecture was a disappointment in that Dr. Ilurty was quite brief and quit at a point where the audience was expecting him to set forth some remedies for the ills he had presented. In his Iiddress Dp. Ilurty is following a Unique idea, however, and this was not appreciated by his hearers, generally. He is trying to get the people to thinking and to get them to making investigations on their own account. lie feels that this will do more good than for him to tell the people all they Would like to know. That Dr. Ilurty is sincere In his fight against consumption was shown by 4ns turning over the money he secured for his lecture to the Wayne county Anti-Tuberculosis society. The rhautauqua management was much surprised at this action on the part of Dr. Ilurty, but it is said that he has been doing such things over the state. Dr. Ilurty expressed himself privately rs desiring to arouse the people of the state to action and to a belief iu him. Conform Not Reform. "All disease." said the speaker, "can be prevented if we will but be praotier! and obey the social and phys'ral laws. It is not necessary to reform, but rather to conform. Scientists are often called impractical, but no knowledge is impractical if we have the sense to use it. "I sometimes think that this should be called the ae of Pasteur on account Df the great saving that he has mad? possible to the human race. His discoveries which saved the silk industry. the sheep industry and the grape indu try. and even more which showed man i that he has the power to vanish all infectious diseases from the earth, have been valued in a monetary way at f.-.r.o. !. -o per annum. "When I see you turn your backs on the old adage that an our.ee of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and allow disease annually to ravage through j the land. I certainly am led to think you have money to burn." Story Told by Charts. The speaker here set forth the rel Btive prevalence of disease by graphic! u ,t v. .. lliclt 43. lie iiin'-n JUlfVt tUJtf II&U U Ul : the orphans owe their orp'j;vias;e to consumption. The deaths durinsr tlx civil war from bullets were placed at while in the same period there were deaths from disease. The Japs, heathen as they are, the speaker showed, had taken advantage of scirnce's lessons and in their late war there was one death by disease as compared to three from bullets. Dr. Hurty emphasized the fact that general apathy would not reign and julck action would follow if a pack of wolves were turned loose in this state while great droves of microbes are allowed to infect the state and nothing Is done.

States Navy Recruiting Station. IS NOT OFTEN DISPLAYED. The Union Jack is waving in Richmond in front of the Central hotel on Main street. The Union Jack flag with its forty-five big white stars on a dark blue field is unfurled to distinguish the United States Navy recruiting station. The Jack is a formal sort of a flag. It is a distinctly sea going flag for the United States but notwithstanding this it is seldom ifever displayed while ships are at sea. It is displayed in port at the bow, or front end of the ship, when the boat is ready for inspection, but when the anchor is hauled, the flag is taken down. Neither is the Jack displayed when the ship is being coated, or when the decks are being scrubbed. It is always displayed on the bow of a small boat that is taking an ambassador or minister to or from the ship. The Jack is shown when a court martial is in session on the ship. These various regulations do not apply when the flag Is being floated in the breeze here. It may be confusing to Quartermaster Carroll to have to lower the flag everytime the corridors In the hotel are being scrubbed.

The traction company has not girv the slightest intimation as to the plana it has decided on to meet the (dtuation thrust upon it by the action of the city council. John F. Robbins, local attorney for the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern Traction company, was seen this morning and asked for a statement as to the course the traction company intended to pursue, but he said that he was unable to make any announcement as the company had not advised him in the matter. Mr. Robbins' Opinion. Mr. Robbins stated that last ern au official of the company called at hla office, but he was not in tho city, no he did not have an opportunity to learn the plans the company has decided on. Mr. Robbins utates that in his opinion the city has no right to order traction cars to cease running on Main street. Mr. Robbins regards Interurban cars an Rtreet cars, and he nays the Dayton & Western Is operating on Main utreft under a franchise given the Richmond Street Railway company, which provides that Ktreet cars can be run on Main street. Rumors Are Set Afloat. Engineers of the traction rnmpmo surveyed the lot at the corner of Twen ty-third and Main streets Tucnday afternoon, and it was reported that the company intended to locate a freight and passenger station there. The action of the engineers also gave rise to the report that the company, as soon as the Mtln street traction ordinance became effective, . would operate traction cars from the east to the east corporation line, where passengers would be disembarked and freight unloaded. President Merrill of the board tttatrd that if It was the intention of the company to locate at Twenty-third and Main streets a freight and passenger station, It would be unlawful to uw this station as the corporation line runs several yards east of this site.
