DAILY EVENING STAR.

HE CHoLERA.-The New York Courier
fears the cholera may reach this country
and city, as it is now so prevalent in En-
rope. The disease has spread most in
England, in filthy locations, as in New
Castle, where there are many more cases
in 1853 than lS49. 1t says:
AT Copenhagen, where the disease has
been raging. out of a thousand persons who
were removed from a crowded locality to an
encamnment outside the town. only ten died
At Hamburgh where the epidemic has been
prevailing upwards of six weeks. only six
casas of cholera have occurred In The i'm
proved parts Of tho town. and in London. in
the ravages of 1919. not single case of chol-
era occurred in any of the model dwellings
for the poor, though the pestilenco ragged
around them among the same class of popula-
ton. 1t ls said that the Hospital Surgeons Of
London, can map down with almost unerring
certainty the districts where the cholera will
first appear and ravage most Indignantly, and
can predict almost the per ccntage OF cases
and the relative mortality"

Tbs Wifs Whipping Affair at Newpor:

The Newport Mercury of Friday pro-
nounces untrue the declaration of Col.
CranSton that the story Of Morgan hav-
ing logged his wife was false" AS we
have copied the allegation OF Col. c., it is
but just that the other side should be
heard; though we had hoped that the pub
iic had heard the last of this unpleasant
affair. The Mercury says:
Morgan did beat his wife, and not
only beat her, but the beating was a Sc
we're one. Three bruises, 1.-TWO of which,
were each as large as dollar, one, on the
temple above the eye, and third was on
the frontal, and was so severe as to break
the skin, were made by the fiogging upon
her face, and these wounds were visible
for several days after they were inflicted.
Two ladies distinctly heard the blows,
and 4 third entered the room Immediately
after they were inflicted, and then noticed
the condition of Mrs. Morgan, while she
was suffering from the immediate conse-
quence of the wounds which were then
upon her, and another lady, five minutes
before Morgan entered the room, noticed
Mrs. Morgan'S face, and knew that there
were then no wounds upon it, and she dis
tinctly heard the fracas.
1t has been proved that Morgan came
to Newport with his wife and took lcdg-
inss at the Touro House, on the 18th
July; that his wife was a stranger in
Newrort-that he left Newport on the
llth of July without making any prerara-
ton for the accouchment of Mrs. NJ,
which took place on the Doth, when Nor
gan was still absent: that for all the at
tentions she received upon that occasion,
size was indebted to some of the lady
guests Of the Touro House, and that
Morgan, when he returned from New
York, did not speak to his wife or show
any act OF tenderness during her confine-
meut,

A M.N FROZEN TO DEATH.

Last winter, man named Schlatter,
attached to the Geological Survey, was
frozen to death in the wild and inhospita-
lie regions north of Lake Superior. He
was one of the best draughtsmen in the
United States. A recent number OF the
Lake Superior Journal gives an account
Of his sad and melancholy death, derived
from one Of the number who went in pur-
suit Of him after he had strayed from the
route: About sundown they discovered
the place where he left the track, and fol
lowing his trail entered a thick cedar
swamp. 1t was evident he had been in

though the night was a cold one, even
