Hart of Brooklyn, sald that while patrolling his beat in an auto, he came upon a group of men who scattered and ran at his approach. Hearing ories of “there they go! Get 'em!” he explained, he believed a serious crime had been committed and chased two of the fleeing men down an alley. As they disappeared over a fence, he fired a shot at the ground, he told the prosecutor, and did not know that the boy, Luigl Musacchio, Ir., had been wounded until the child's father informed him of that fact. The boy was taken to a hospital with the hullet lodged in his head and physiclans said there is no hope of his recovery. Fall From Second Floor Kills New York Woman New York, Oct. 14.—Mrs. Lewls B. Woodruff, 40 years old, was killed today when she fell from a scednd floor window of her home in East 68th street. Mrs. Woodruff, according to her husband, had been ill for some time and was under the constant care of two nurses. While the nurses were ; absent from the room she made her way to the window and a short time later her body was discovered on the pavement two stories below.

C. Little of the university and Dr. W. T. Bovle, professor of biophysics at the Ha vard medical school, who have been conducting ‘a series of experiments with chicks. The findings of these sclentists, it was clalmed, revealed important medical properties of such light, not only in raising of chicks but in the prevention of diseases ot children, especially for rickets. Results in Chicks Experiments conducted on a brood ot pedigreed chicks indicated, ac- cording to Drs, Little and Bovle, that not only can larger and stronger chicks be ralsed under the artifictal sunlight but that chicks which were raised under naturalbunlight fliter- ed through ordinary window glass developed weak legs' or rickets, weighed but one-fifth as much as the others, and died unless a change in living conitions was made, Ordi- nary window glass, it was explained, is opaque to ultra-violet and it was the actinic of health-giving rays which resulted in the marked under- development of the chicks. The same principle, Dr, Bovie sald, would ap- ply to children. “Babies, particularly those of poor families brought up in dark alleys and crowded tenement houses, and rich children brought up in homes where windows are.closed and all sunlight is filtered through glass, de- velop ricketsy! he sald. “This is one of the chief causes of bow legs, which most mothers believe are caused by allowing the child to stand on its feet or walk too early in life. Autopsies on Babies “Autopsies on babies in Dresden showed that of those which were born in the fall and died in the spring and who died in the fall only a very small percentage had rickets. The babies born in the spring were outdoors in the sunlight during the summer and therefore were now de- prived of the ultra-violet rays of the sun.” In the experiments at the.Univer- sity of Maine 233 chicks of three common varleties, two heavier breeds and one lighter, were used. One group, containing 125 chicks, re- celved mo artificial light and were termed “control chicks.” The other 08, which were perfodically bathed PARSONS' | cquae i MON.

New Use for 'Airghips In ultra.violet rays, “treated chicks." ““This ultra-violet light has proved not only a powerful stimulant to the growth and development of chicks, but these experiments have shown that they could not grow and de- velop normally without its influence, whether obtained from the outdoor sunlight ‘or from the mercury mic lamp,” Dr, Bovie sald, in explaining the results of the tests. “The results of these experiments are of very great economic value be. cause it Iy the common experiense of chicken-growers that the deatn rate of chicks at the age of four or five weeks 1s vory high. These ex- periments show that the death rate can be reduced by supplying chicks with ultra-violet light. The chickens recelving this ultra-violet light are not only larger than those were ter{ncd the livelier and more vigorous in every way. The secondary sex characters ald not develop in the chickens which were deprived of the ultra- ‘ violet light, These characters were ' very fully, it not excessively, de- veloped in the chickens which did reccive the ultra-violet radiation. “Another interesting phase of the experiments is that all of the chicks recelving the ultra-violet light lived with the exception of a few the rats killed, About 75 per cent of the chickens in the pens deprived of ul- tra-viojet light dled from a diseass known to chicken-growers as “‘weak legs," but which we term rickets. “The impotance of these experl- ments would be very great if they were only applicable to the raising of chickens. They are quite as ap- plicable to the production of eggs and, more important still, they are applicable to the raising of our own children; for the discase known as rickets is a disease of calcium metab- olism and, can be cured by a proper exposure to the ultra-violet light. Discase Records “The disease records of every city show that from 97 to 100 per cent of all the bables raised in the north- ern countries where it is necessary to keep the children indoors and to use window glass to shut out the cold have rickets when examined in the spring. Undoubtedly many other physiological processes are involved. ‘We may expect to find the same fac- tors influencing the growth rate of children as have been found in thess éxperiments with chickens.” The artificial sunlight lamp used at the' University of Maine is some- what simil#r to the bluish mercury lamp used by photographers exceps that instead of beng a glass tube which is opaque to the ultra-violet rays, it*is made of clear fused quartz produced in the Thomson research laboratory of the General Electric company at West Lynn, Mass, Davis Continues His Attack Upon Machine Oliver I. Davis who announces his platform to be “an anti-machine drive without reservations,” conclud. ed his campalgn for.the republican nomination for representative at Russell & Erwin's factory gate this noon with a spirited attack against the republican machine, and ex- Mayor George A. Quigley, Davis’ campaign manager also attacked the local organization. The former may- or charged that “George W. Klett and his gang elected Paonessa may- or.” In. his campaign, Davis and his manager have made a novel sugges- tion in republican primary cam- paigns, that being a suggestion that Davls, only, be voted for instead of voting for two since there are two offices to be filled. This, they claim, is made necessary because the other candidates have the machine back- ing. The “squamaria,” a colorless, scaly plant found in England, sucks the life from the roots of other plants.
