Pellagra as ft National health problem
was the subject of an address delivered

"The problem of pellagra in Europe and

fragettes conducted a mock polling
booth in Harlem, where all women were
permitted to vote, and where the So
cialist candidate for Mayor polled an
overwhelming majority. In two of the
polling places on the lower East Side
women served as watchers for Prohibi

plains of Conditions.
At a meeting of the Rose City Park
Improvement Association held last night,
which was one of the best attended in
the history of the organization, strong
resolutions- were passed condemning the

a schoolhouse for the district. It wa
brought out that work had been started
to relieve the congestion in the district
and that the contractors were delaying
the completion of -the building.
It was said that in the meantime BO
children are crowded in where there
should be but 15. that at desks for one
pupil three are seated, and that in the
small tem(orary building, 12x14 feet in
sise. there are two teachers. The con
ditions are described as unsanitary and
dangerous, made more so by a leaky roof
during the recent hard rains.
At the same meeting a strong protest
was made by the taxpas ers over the de
lay in getting electric lights on the Sandy
Road, the contention being made that
there were no lights on the street from
East Twenty-eighth street to the city
llmlts. and that in view of the fact that ;
there are no crosswalks in the entire dis
trlct. conditions' are extremely bad af
night.
Resolutions were pased. favoring'the
employment of the Chicago experts,

Hla Kills Says He Takes Only
One of Each Specimen, With
Exception of Lions.
CHICAGO. Nov. 3. (Special.) Members
of the party of Theodore Roosevelt on
his hunting trip in Africa are "tired to
death and ready to quit," according to E.
M. Newman, who returned to Chicago to
day from a tour through Bast Africa over
the same ground as that traversed by the
ex-President.
Mr. Newman met the Roosevelt party
last July at Nairobi, BrlUah Bast Africa,
and he had a longr talk with the ex
President and his hunting companions.
Regret over criticism aroused in America
by the slaughter of animals was ex
pressed by Mr. Roosevelt, according to
Mr. Newman. .
"I regret very much the criticism and
the claim of wanton slaughter of animals
which I have heard has come from
Americans," Mr. Newman quotes Colonel
Roosevelt as saying, "because I have only
been killing one specimen and no more,
except in the case of lions, a pest to
humanity. In the case of lion I nave
received the heartiest thanks of the peo
ple of the neighborhood in. which I have
killed the beasts."
"He shoots only such speciments are
are desired by the Smithsonian Institu
tion." said Mr. Newman, "in addition
to the Hons, which the natives regard
as a menace and a pest.
"Members of his party In July were
nearly tired out and wished to shorten
the trip, as they had been marched to
exhaustion. 'Bwano tumbo the name
applied by natives to 'Colonel Roosevelt,
means 'Big White Chief, by which name
the natives acknowledge the exalted of
fice once held by the hunter and his
prowess as a nlmrod."

VANCOUVER, Wash.. Nov. 3. (Spe

much damage. The big boom containing
several million feet of logs, for which the
Lewis River Boom Company is responsi
ble, broke from its fastenings at the
mouth of Lewis River and are floating
down the Columbia River. Five or six
aunches with expert rivermen and log-
drivers are catching the logs as rapidly
as possible and making them fast to the
bank until they can be better taken care
of and towed back to where they belong.
The launches of the Case Lumber
Company, the Hill Lumber Company and
the Kalama Boom company are assist
ing In recovering the logs. The Boom
Company does not own the logs, but is
handling them for another company, so
it will be held responsible for the logs
that have broken away.

shavings and rubbed them over his face.
I let him drop to the floor and walked
out. When I got back. I saw him ly

heart. It was not beating. I picked him

Then I climbed over fences till I was
three doors from there."
