Sneezes and Superstition Cost Many Lives in India; Worship Disease Goddesses NEW YORK, Oct. 21. Sneeies and superstition cost many lives annually in India. This was the statement of Dr. Anna Degenring of the Woman's American Baptist Foreign Mission society, who has Just returned here, on a year's furlough after 14 years as a doctor in India. "A sneeze means a great impending calamity to the Indian mind," said Dr. Degenring. "Whatever happens on the day that one hears a sneeze is sure

I to turn out ill, and the Indian will en

ter upon no undertaking of importance on such a day. Many of our patients have refused to have operations on which their lives depended on the day that had been arranged for, because they happened to sneeze that morning, or even to hear someone else sneeze." Auspicious Days. Indian belief in auspicious dayp is another "hobgoblin" in the path of the

medical missionary there, Dr. Degnering said. Soon after an Indian child is born, the soothsayer reveals to the family its lucky star and its lucky days. Indians who fall ill or are hurt in an accident persist in waiting for their auspicious days before sending for a doctor. The Indians, the physician explained attribute epidemics to the wrath of various goddesses of ill health, adding "there Is ft p-nrlftoss nf malaria arH n

J goddess of smallpox a goddess. In

tact or every recurring epidemic." Though they believe in goddeses, they are hard to convince concerning germs and they have no idea of quarantine for contagious diseases, Dr. Degenring said.

sippi rivers, it is expected the river will see a revival, in some measure o? its old time prosperity. Applications Received. The Queen City is now on the ways at Cairo preparatory to being put into commission for the trip. The company which owns and operates it has been literally swamped with applications for cargo space and her passenger carrying accommodations were long since been spoken. Assurances have been received from Chambers of Commerce and other business organizations in cities on the two rivers that they will co-operate in making the traffic successful. Promoters of the service say that freight can be conveyed from Ohio river cities and towns to New Orleans at a far cheaper rate and equally as fast as the railroads can carry it considering the usual delays that railroad traffic entails. The trip from Cincinnati to New Orleans will take five days and it will take eight or nine days to return.

Curse on Famous Abbey Brings Owners to Death (By Associated Press) LONDON, Oct. 21. The sudden death of Michael P. Grace, father of the countess of Donoughmore, recalls a legend connected with Battle Abbey which he rented from Sir Augustus Webster. The great establishment was seized by Henry VIII and it is said that the last abbott pronounced a curse that the owners of it should meet death by drowning. It is stated that Lord Montague, who owned the property in the ISth century, was drowned, and a similar fate befell his two nephews. Lady Webster, wife of the present owner, was drowned three years ago and a short time later the eldest daughter of the tenant then occupying the abbey lost her life in a similar way.

International Red Cross Ship Leaves for Siberia LONDON, Oct. 21. The first steamer put into service between Hamburg and the Par East by the International Red Cross and the League of Nations has left for Vladivostok carrying 1,200 Russians whose homes are in Eastern Siberia. The ship will return with former war prisoners from Siberia, according to information from the League of Nations. It has been estimated that 100.000 former prisoners of war remain to be repatriated from Russia and Siberia. Comparatively few, however, can be brought from Vladivostok because the soviet authorities have refused permission for prisoners from Siberia proper to leave Russia by way of the Far East. Repatriate Prisoners. Repatriation of former war prisoners by the present scheme is possible as a result of funds raised in the United States, a number of American organizations acting jointly in what is known as the American Repatriation Committee. Already $800,000 has been raised, $1,000,000 being expected.

The principal organizations co-operating in this committee are the American Friends Service Committee (Quakers), American Red Cross, American Relief Committee for Hungarian Sufferers, American Relief Committee for Austrian War Prisoners, Federal Council of the Churches of Christ of America, Joint Distribution Committee, National Catholic War Council, Young Men's Christian Association and the National Lutheran Council.
