DEATH or Mrs. Z. DORSEY IY-
soN.-Our town and community were
very much shocked on Saturday last by
the announcement OF the death Of Mrs,
Dorsey Tyson, of Frederick city, Md,
formerly Miss Mary Morgan, daugh-
ter of Col. w. a. Morgan, near town.
She died in that city about II o'clock,
Saturday morning and her remains were
brought here to her fathers residence
the same night about y o'clock. The
funeral services, which were attended
by one of the largest assemblages Of
friends upon like occasion, took place
in the Episcopal Church in this town
on Sunday evening at ) o'clock, Mr..
Hubbard, Pastor of the church being
absent at Clarksburg, Rev. Mr.. LeFevre
of Mar!uSburg, read the burial service;
after which the corpse was conveyed 10
Elmwood Cemetery, and amid the sing
ing of beautiful hymn was consi gned
to the tomb. Mrs. Tyson was young
lady of rare accomplishments, and uni
versally admired and beloved by all.
She had only been married about eight
months, having married Mr.. G. Dorsey
Tyson, of Frederick city, in October
last. She was a lady who had smile
and kind word for all whom she met,
and her loss will not only be felt by her
immediate household, but by a loving
aud sympalhizing community in which
she was raised and SO well-known. Her
age was 81 years.

Bulgaria promises to become an interesting
country In the world Of politics. For five
hundred years it has been ground down by
the Turks; has been without government and
without law. Less than a year ago it was
granted autonomy, and it's notables met and
framed a constitution. The first Bulgarian
assembly will meet In a short time, and it is
said It's first work will be the impeachment
and trial of the first minister Of the country
for a violation OF It's brand new constitution.
This Is good work, and will doubtless pre-
cipitate a ministerial crisis. 1t Is not often
that a government begins with an impeach-
ment. It generally wants to establish peace
and order first. With Bulgaria, however. it
is different. Like Minerva, it springs full
hedged into life. ready for anything.

We are glad to see that even the Memphis
papers are convinced hat we have no fever
here and no chance of an epidemic. They
were somewhat slow n loath to admit this.
The unhappy situation of Memphis made
them suspicious. When they saw the fever
invading their own city, it was impossible to
persuade them that the other towns which
suffered In 1878 would not receive a similar
visitation. They confidently predicted an cpl
demic for New Orleans, n insisted that our
authorities were concealing the facts and not
reporting the fever that already prevailed
here. Now, however, they nave given up this
ak. The AUaLanche OF Wednesday admits
the total absence OF any chance OF the fever
in this city, and congratulates New Orleans
on its happy escape. The whole world, In
deed, is satisfied OF our proper sanitary con-
dltion, Of the general good health Of this city
and the absence Of all possibility Of an cpl
demic here, except one little sandy island on
the Gulf coast, which bears the name Of Gal
weston.

The taxpayers of London are thinking OF
investigating their municipal expenses. The
corporation of London has been giving some
very costly dinners lately at the expense OF
the taxpayers. The dinner given to the
Prince of Wales, on his return from India,
cost no less than S1C5 900. In 1872 the corpo-
ration of Londo gave dinners to the King Ct
Belgium, the Sultan, the Khedive and the
Shah of Persia at a cost Of 1881 $50. This is a
pretty sum to spend for mock-turtle soup and
roast beef, the London taxpayers complain
and they want their aldermen restricted to
100000 per year for these grand municipal
feaSts.

THE BOARD OF HEALTH AND THEIR
PURSUERs.

The question OF the wisdom and the eff
cheney Of quarantine to prevent the introduce
ton and recurrence Of q yellowfeyer Or chole-
"a epidemic has been discussed in this city
and State for more than a hundred years.
Nay, before the foundation Of this city it agi-
tated the minds OF the little band Of French
colonists, who made the first settlement in
this section at East Biloxi, now called
Ocean Springs. At this place, where
the whole population did not exceed
three hundred, the yellow fever, or black
death, as 1t was then called, found its way by
ships from Havana and slew one-third of the
hardy colonists, including their Governor.
Leoville, brother Of Bienville and Iberville.
The great Iberville, justly esteemed the chief
and the senior brother Of this interest,"
ing family, SO gloriously identified with
the foundation and early fortunes of this
French settlement, and with some OF
the most glorious achievements Of the
French navy, persisted from the same
disease % his way to Biloxi to rejoln his
old companions. Up to this time 1t is IN
deniable that the visitations Of his epidemic
were distinctly traceable to importation from
Havana, which was the only port with which
the c~olonists had even occasional intercourse.
Here originated the belief in the i'm
portation Of this disease, and though many
facts have occurred since which 60 far to
Justify the conclusion Of those who believe
that the disease can be and Is originated or Is
revived and propagated here through germs
introduced by importation In forme r years. the
belief in the importation theory has always
been held by a large number OF our citizens.
Based on this theory, quarantine. a rigor-
Gus exclusion Of intercourse With ports which
We're believed to be the native seats of this
disease, has always had strong and warm ad-
yocates. It has never been possible to decide
on which side of this controversy was the
preponderant Or majority voice of the people
or OF the scientists. There has never been a
vote taken on the subiect. But it is notable
In our history that the Hmportationists and
quarantinists have frequently obtained the
~ascendancy and procured enactments Of the
Legislature establishing rigorous quaran-
tines.
This was the case in 1924, during the adj
ministration of Cow Where, when the Legis-
lature passed very severe quarantine laws.
But two years experience produced a reac-
ton, and the very people who had a few
months before xsdHamored for a rigid quaran-
line Heset the 1uovernor to recommend the
Legislature T trepeel its quarantine laws. It
