Slumbering to death In tbe grip of
:lie African sleeping sickness, Dr. Al
»rt 0. Pervell of Brooklyn, explorer
md big game hunter, has attracted the
ittentlon of physicians In all parts of
:he world who are students of tropical
ilaeases. His case Is remarkable In
Lhat five years elapsed between the
ime he was Infected by the germ car
rying tsetse fly In the Kongo Jungle
md his entrance upon what has pror
>d in practically all cases to be the
Fatal sleep. Tbe most unique case on
record previous to this was that of an
English physician, who fought off tho
ileeo for two years.
In a last hope that somewhere a
remedy may be found to rouse her son
Crom his lethargy, his mother, Mrs.
Uelancy Fervell, who has been his de
roted nurse, la making n widespread
ip[«al to physicians with knowledge
>t the dread disease. One physician
isserted a belief that the sufferer
night be saved.
Although he has not been out of 'led
x» eight weeks, I)r. 1'ervetl does lot
raffer the slightest pain. He appears
So be sleeping peacefully and show*
lot the slightest trace of disease. The
•ugged tan of the African sun has not
eft his cheeks, he has lost but little
weight, and as he is In the prime of
life, about forty years old, over six
leet In height and of athletic build It
Is hard to believe, after a sight of
Mm. that be is 111. lie has the ap
pearance of a man coming from a hard
lay's wrirk and sleeping soundly,
Cl»ar Mind In Waking Moment*.
At Intervals during the day ho wakes
ip and remalus awake for several mln
ites. Then he la given food which he
llgests without trouble. In his few
minutes of consciousness he can talk
Nearly of his case, of his African
:ravels and adventures and of matters
»f genera] Interest, but often In the
middle of a sentence his ty-es will close
uid he will sink bn«:k upon the pUlow
joutid asleep. His heart, lungs and all
the organs of his hotly are In sound
:ondltlon.
Dr. Pervell graduated from New
Jork university iu 1SW and six years
later went to the Kongo with an ex
ploring party of Belgians. He remain
ed there until May, 1914, when he re
turned to Brussels. Three years be
fore leaving the Kongo he had been
Mtteu by tsetse flies and was taken
with the first symptoms of the sleep
ing sickness. He used herbs prepared
by the natives and with his rugged
constitution apparently wore away the
disease, but it reappeared when he ar
rived In Brussels.
Dpoa his arrival be found that a
man to whom he had been sending his
earnings bad stolen the money and
laft fur South America. He suffered
i nervous breakdown after hearing of
this, and in his weakened condition
the disease again came on him. He
was treated in Brussels and was tak
en from there to the I'asteur lustltute
in Paris cud later to a hospital in
Liverpool where tropical diseases are
specially treated Nothing could be
done for him, and last August he re
turned to tnis country.
Tbe glands and muscles of his less
and arms were affected when he ar
rived here, but he did not have th«
sleepy feeling. That came on grad
ually aud eight weeks ago became so
pronounced that he could not leave
his bed. His moments of wakefulness
now are getting fewer and fewer, and
It Is becoming more difficult to give
Mm nourishment
Scientists Offer Little Hope.
The little parasite deposited In the
blood by the tsetse fly, which carries
it from the mouths of wild animals
of the Jungle, lodges In the cerebro
spinal fluid, and it is in the spinal
nerves leading to the brain that It ex
erts its Influence, according to Sir Wil
liam Osier of Oxford and Professor
Thomas McCrae of Jefferson Medical
college of Philadelphia, who made a
joint study of the disease. Until ten
years ago the cause of the sleeping
sickness was unknown, and It was be
lieved a disease peculiar to the negro,
but Dr. J. E. Dutton discovered it was
due to germs carried by the tsetse and
distributed with Its bite. The fly Is
about three-quarters of an Inch long
and looks like a cross between a com
mon housefly and a bee.
After stating that a few in the pre
liminary stages of the disease recover
Dr. Osier in his treatise says that
when the patient reaches the sleeping
stage all hope is lost and death comes
sooner or later.
