FRIEDMAIII VACCINE LACKS CURE POWER

New York Specialist Says Se-

rium Shows Neither Curative Nor Preventive Power

I EDUCATIONAL NOTES f

WASHINGTON, D. C, May 19 Observing patients who had been treated with Dr. Fredrich F. Friedmann's Vaccine for fourteen months Dr. Manheimer of New York declared here today that this so-called cure for tuberculosis has exhibited neither curative nor preventative powers. He made his report before the Clinical Section of the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, now in session here. "In March, 1913," Baid Dr. Manheitner, "eighteen patients were treated under my supervision. Of these fifteen an be followed up and of that number three are dead. The number of infections In those cases were one, two, nd four respectively. Of the remaining twelve patients, ten received one, and two received four injections. Five of the ten patients who received one injection developed abscesses at the site of the injection and were therefore, unsuitable for further injections, according to the Inventor. The other five patients were not reinjected, either because they did not see the Improvement they had been led to expect or because they had become worse and had ' lost confidence in Friedmann. As to their present condition, five of them are now unchanged and five are worse than a year ago. "One patient who had four injections, feels well and presents signs of an arrested lung-process, but has not gained in weight and has developed a new tuberculosis process in another part of the body. The second patient with four injections has tuberculosis of the knee-joint and is now decidedly worse than before. The infiltrate of the fourth injection broke down and discharged pus "Where abcesses resulted at the elte of the first injection, the vaccine apparently produced no additional harmful effect. The disease remained

uninfluenced. Friedmann neglected to t

prevent abcess-formation, although he claimed to know how. To be very charitable, one might judge from one single case, that decided natural healing tendencies, aided by commonsense treatment, will not be hindered by the remedy. When in a quiescent case the first subjective and objective symptoms of a new outbreak appear and one naturally wishes to check it, the remedy is absolutely worthless for that purpose. It cannot prevent the tendency spread, if a case is so disposed. The method of its administration has been anything but careful find intelligent. For these reasons, and on account of the absence of curative and preventative powers in this feries, it cannot be recommended."

The Altoona, Pa., high school serves luncheon daily to 1,500 students at a cost of 7H10 cents. There la a net profit each year of about $400. The teaching of home economics Is now required by law in the elementary schools of Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Montana, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and Washington. When six normal school professors at Fresno, Cal., found it was going to cost 207 to install the new play apparatus on the normal school grounds, they got together and did it themselves at a total cost of 925. A course in social service for parents has just been given at the National Kindergarten College, Chicago. Visiting nurses, playgrounds, juvenile courts and social settlements were some of the topics treated.

SPARTAN TERSENESS IN ARMY REPORTS Ensign Narrates How Battalion Fought in Battle at Vera Cruz City. WASHINGTON, D. C, May 19. With Spartan terseness are written the array, navy and marine reports which officially tell the story of our advance into Mexico. There Is little attempt at literary style and none at bringing into prominence spectacular events and heroic deeds. Yet through these dignified, straightforward pages runs an undercurrent for the careful reader that thrills with a tale of romance and gallantry. Here Is how Ensign Ralph Martin, Adjutant of the Marine Battalion of San Francisco, writing from the Custom House at Vera Cruz tells his brigade adjutant of the capture of the town. He heads his letter "data concerning landing engagements." "The San Francisco's Battalion landed at midnight, April 21. This force consisted of nine officers and 116 men comprising two four-squad infantry companies, two Benet-Mercler automatics and special details with gun-cotton party. April 22d. "Upon landing reported to Regimental Headquarters at Hotel Terminal and then proceeded to Custom House in rear of which our battalion was directed to erect a barricade between No. 1 warehouse and the waterfront in prolongation of Calle Miguel Luerdo. This work was completed and barricade manned before daylight. "One of our automatic guns and one from Utah mounted on the roof of south wing of Custom House began firing on Hotel Oriente at daylight. Hotel was captured and several pris

oners were taken. Desultory firing all along our front during morning and forenoon, which we succeeded in silencing by volley firing. "About 9:00 a. m. the Second Naval Regiment passed in rear of Custom House and proceeded ot southward of our line. When they came abreast Naval Academy and the incompleted market they were subjected to a heavy fusillade principally from these buildings. The regiment deployed in the Plaza between these buildings. After a sharp engagement in which ships in harbor assisted by shelling, the Naval Academy and Market were taken. The San Francisco's guns were firing on the Naval Academy. Fire again became desultory after this engagement and at 10:30 our regiment was deployed along Calle Zaragoza from C. Benito to G. Estaban Morales. "The San Francisco's Battalion acted as a support all along the line. At noon we were quartered in Custom House and have since held Custom House and surrounding territory assigned to our precinct. This district comprised the section of the city from Calle Zaragoza to water front between C. Vicarlo and C. Montesinos. Our position was fired on by snipers from time to time during night.

FOREST NOTES.

Last year the fire loss on the Canadian timber reserves was the smallest ever known, only one-fiftieth of one per cent of the area being burned over. Armstrong lake, within the Beartooth national forest, Montana, is said to rival the famed Lake Louise of the Canadian Rockies. It lies at an elevation of 7,000 feet surrounded by towering mountains. A good road which can be traveled in half a day by automobile connects it with the railroad at Billings. A rustic hotel has recently been completed, and many trails make the surrounding region accessible.

Zentaro Wawase, professor of forestry at the imperial university of Tokio, Japan, has been making a tour of the national forests of this country to learn the government's methods of selling timber and of reforestation.

VERA CRUZ TAKEN 5 TIMESJf ALIENS Fever-port Has Long History of Bloodshed and Pillage to Tell of Its Past.

WASHINGTON, D. C, May 19. The fever-port of Vera Crua had been captured four times before Uncle Sam seized it on April 21. Once it fell to General WinfleM Krntt nnrn tn ttiA al

lied forces of France, England and

opain ana twice to the buccaneers of the Spanish Main. I know several men today who were present at the siege of 1847. It Is probable none of these veterans of the first Mexican struggle will see service this time, although I have Just seen a letter from Brigadier-General HoraUo G. Gibson, U. S. A., retired, eighty-seven years old, in which the venerable fighter offers his sword to the Stars and Stripes and refers to Major-General Leonard Wood as sponser for his physical and mental ability. General Gibson served through the Mexican, civil and several Indian wars. It was March 7, 1847, when the fleet bearing General Scott and his little

army appeared off Mexico's principal seaport. The troops landed without much trouble after the city had been bombarded, but It took a sanguinary siege of thirteen days to capture the defences. Trenches were dug and regular operaUons conducted. While the troubles of the United States which culminated in the Civil War were brewing Mexico grew arrogant to this country and to Europeans. 8panlards Land. The crowning insult was President Mlramon's seizure of $630,000 in specie from the British Consulate. Great Britain, France, Spain and Prussia decided to move. Meantime, the great Benito Jaurez. the General Washington of Mexico, was conducting a revolt in the North. He overthrew Marmon, but the foreign troops kept on their-way. On December 14, 1861, Ve

ra Cruz was seised by a Spanish forcw under General Prim. The result was) the elevation ot Maximilian to the throne and, after the European troops bad been withdrawn, the unfortunate Austrian's execution. The pirates with force equal to a respectable army captured Vera Crux in 16S3. They burned, slew and robbed for many days before they were driven to their shops. In 1712 the notorious buccaneer kings Laurent and Van Horn seized the port and held it ten days. They killed hundreds of Mexicans, carried away women captives and did an immense amount of damage. To this day the nurse girl of Vera Cruz, seklng to still the fretful child, says: Be quiet or I will give you to Van Horn."
