In 1SS1 Port Arthur was a village I of mud huts, on the farthest outpost i of Chinese terlrtory. Although' China hait been Inhabited for thous ands of years, there was no evidence of any permanent settlement of any strength on the Lu Shun Kow penin sula, as the Chinese call It. The China-Japanese war In 18.M found it a mongrel village of when It was destroyed by the Japan ese fleet. Between 1881 and 18H4 China hud built foundries for cast ing heavy ordnance and had prepar ed to make It the leading Chinese naval supply station. In 188 ltussiu secured a lease upon the entire pe ninsula. Including all the outer und Inner forts as well as the country lying north of Port Arthur. Since that time she has expended 30u. 000,000 in adding to the strength of the forts, besides building Dulny for a commercial port, free to ull na tions. Russia's lease was made for 25 years, but she Immediately laid plans for perpetual possession and the fortifications she built and the preparations she made, alarmed China and Japan. China at once saw that in the 25 year lease she had given the Itussians a perpetual foothold, as Manchuria was being so thoroughly Russianized that It would be Impossible for China to hold the province with its Russian Institutions so firmly founded. From Manchuriu, Russia began ex tending her power over Korea, and then it was that Japan Interfered. The plan of Russia was to make the coast a Russian stronghold from Port Arthur to Vladivostok, thus cut ting off Japan from any Interest In the mainland and leaving her ut the mercy of Russia. The full of Port Arthur wrecks the, entire plan of the empire built at bil lions of expense by Russia. It Insures the continual expansion of Jupan and means an open door to the Orient. Russia would have extended the narrow policy of St. Petersburg across the entire sweep of Asia to the Paci fic, and her success In this war would mean another and more terrible con flict between the Slav and the United States or England, In the near fu ture. A Japanese victory over Rus sia clears away every other prospect of war in the Orient. It means ex tending civilization. It means the beginning of the end of Russian dom ination. Taking hope from a Jap anese victory, Russian peasants at home will take advantage of the weakness of their oppressor and the end may be easily guessed. prevent a possible spread of diphtheria from the reservation to the city, the I'matlllus should be j ciuaVanllned and kept at home until I me danger is past.

Tuberculosis causes annually more than 150,000 deaths in the United states at the average of 35 years. At this age the normal after lifetime Is about 32 years, so that the real loss of life covered, measured In time, Is represented by 4.800,000 veins per I annum. If we assume that the net I value of a year of human life after ! the age of 35 years Is at least J50. the real loss to the nation resulting from I the disease (a large proportion of I which is known to be needless) may be estimated at J240. 000,000 per an num. These astounding und almost In compruhenslve figures are far from being an exaggeration, but lei us as-1 sum that only one-half of this men-! tallty is preventable, und we have a net possible saving to the nation of $120,000,000 per annum. This esti mate does not take Into account the' social, moral and sentimental value ' of at least 100. ooo lives, which, under different conditions, might reasona bly hope to continue fur many years. The mortality from tuberculosis Is. therefore, a problem compared with all other social problems of a medical character sink Into Insignificance, and It Is safe to say that the possible prevention of a large portion or the mortality from tills disease Is Justly deserving of the solicitude, the ac tive personal interest and liberal pe cuniary support of ull who have the real welfare of the people of this na tion at heart. Ulggs estimates thut New York city sustains an annual economic loss of 23.ono,non. and that the na tion at large must sustain an annual loss of 1330.000.000 because of tuber culosis. There are nearly 10,000 deaths from consumption In New Vork city. Seven thousand persons died In Illinois In 1903. half of them between the ages of 20 and 50 years, while the estimated loss to the state alone, because of this disease, was words of a scripture, stark and dread. Once more of the Souls In Siege are said; For at morn they say, Would God It were night; And at eve, Would God it were morn ing light For the fear of their hearts, where with they fear.
