Tho present gamo law is a plcco of

law which has provod a flat falluro is
that providing for tho burning .of
slashings. Thoro is only ono timo to

is ready. All this red tape business
about getting a permit from tho county

would havo beon right if tho Bolons

(Four O'clock Edition.)..
London, Oct. 11. Princess Christian
has issued an appeal on behalf of tho
national commit too for tho establish
rnent of sanatoria for workers suffer
ing from tuberculosis. This organi
zation, formed undor the auspices of
tho Hospital Saturday Fund, is an ex
ceptionally representative body, in
cluding delegates from practically all
tho groat bonovolent societies and the
trados unions'.
How terrible is tho scourgo with
which the committco seeks to copo may
bo gathered from the statement of Dr.
Latham, one of tho leaders of tho
Hospital Saturday Fund, that in Lon
don about 16,000 persons die every
year whoso lives might bo saved with
proper treatment. Ho computes that
80,000 of the population of the me
tropolis aro stricken with one form or
another of tuberculosis and makes the
startling deduction that one In every
65 will be dead in five years' time from
a preventable disease.
