WILL W. LOCKWOOD, FORMER DePAUW . STUDENT, GIVES VIEWS REGARDING SCARE CAUSED BY SEVERAL CASES OK DREADED DISEASE IN EAST.

PLAGUE WILL NOT SPREAD

PERU, Ind. July US.—In speaking of the "scare” that exists In the eastern part of the United States on account of the discovery of several cases of Asiastic cholera. Will W, Lockwood, general secretary of the Young Men's Christian Association in Shanghai, China, who is visiting his mother, Mrs. Mary E. Ltockwood of this city., said Thursday that he did not believe there was any danger of a spread of the disease in this country on account of climatic conditions and sanitary precautions which are being taken. Shanghai's Regulations, •'Cholera," said Mr. Lockvotad "will not thrive where there is cleanliness and proper san'tary steps are taken. Every summer Shanghai la quarantined against some port where cholera exists, and so rigid are the quarantine regulations and tfJ effective the treatment of the disease that only once in recent years has there been any Dumber of cases Every year there are probably from ten to twenty cases, but these are at once isolated so the disease does ot spread. "Asiatic cholera is a disease peculiar to tropical countries and there is always danger of it being carried from one pDrt to another On account of their oontiquity to countries where the disease beicomes a scourge, the Japanese and »ome parts of China have established what is probably the most efficient quarantine maintained anywhere in the world. There is cholera In parts of China, but principally in the south. Shanghai and other large cities have kept it down to the minimum through eternal viilgance and the most severe methods Japanese Quarantine. "Japan, especially, fights to keep ut the dread disease The quaranIne regula ions in that country aio erhaps the most rigidly enforced y any government. Special care ! s aken of course to investigate the assengers in the large ships In 'hich steeragn passengers av pacs togethe.' like sardines under ost unsanitary comlitioi.s F.v erv assenger is ce’muled to undeigo a ost thorough examination oefoie e is allowed to land and if cholera discovered aboard ship the entire assenger list of the vessel is held n quarantine.” Conditions in America are not nductive to cholera and with the iHDrous steps being taken by the edical authorities, Mr. Lockwood ays, there is no serious danger of ts spreading.

SLEEPING MAN WALKS OFF CAR

ELI (XM)PER, OF BRAZIL, PAINFULLY INJURED WHEN HE FELL OFF OF THE TRACTION CAR, AT BRAZIL THURSDAY NIGHT.

HAS NARROW ESBAPE

BRAZIL, Ind., July 28—Eli Cooper, residing north of the city near the Excelsoir Clay Plant, was seriously injured Thursday night when he either walked from the east bound limited traction car, in his sleep or was thrown off when he stepped out in the rear vestibule in his sleepy condition. Cooper had been at Terre Haute and he boarduf the limited car leaving that city at 7:55 to come to his home here On the way home Cooper fell asleep in the car and the first thing he remembers is that someone shook him and told him he waa past his stopping place. Cooper walked the length of the car from the smoking compartment to the rear vestibule and either walked off or was thfown off by a lurch of the car. Cooper was found lying in the road at the side of the street car tracks in East Brazil by Frank Morris, Fred Howard and Sam Stewart, who brought him to police headquarters to secure medical attention for the injured man. Mr. Cooper had intended getting off the car at the Midland tracks but the car had passed Morgan’s crossing and was hitting the high places when he fell or was thrown off. It is considered remarkable that Mr. Cooper's neck was not broken in his fall from the rapidly moving car. Dr Williams, who attend* d the injured man, found that lie had sustained a bad gash over the left eye and other lacerations about the head and face, both knees are badly bruised, Doth wrists sprained and swollen and the knuckles knocked down and he is also probably injured internally. Cooper was able to be up and around the-house today, however.
