of France, some S(iely distant from ths
infected district An hmaa living q Cour.

the hospital, sD6her lodging was thorough.
ly disinfectef No apprehension Of further
cases is believed to exist in the community.
Two cayk Of cholera have occurred at Far.
bonnie And St. Nszaire.
In village not far from Touiou two
deaths hsp that disease have occurred.
One Of these dessks. was Of an especially
pathetic character. IN unknown woman
was seized with the d. y<ad diseese while pass.
ing along the street She fell prostra.ed 70
the ground and expired mmsdiately. A
pitiable case is reported from Marselles. An
old woman Of over seventy years was miss
ing for several days. The police at last
forced an entrance into her lodging. They
found her body upon the floor in such n con-
dition that she must have been dead for
some days. Examination proved that she
was victim Of cholera. She bad lived a.
most exclusively on fruit.
Not Allowed To Lnsd.
The corvette Argentina, which was re.
Gently n, Mnrseilles, desired to take on coal
at Gibraltar. The English authorities there
forbade this, and threatened to FIRE ualess
the vessel at once departed. The Argeu.
tina thereupon proceeded to q port in Por-
tugal and began coaling But the inhabi.
tants Of the port became panicstrickcn and
compelled the authorities TO order the im-
mediate departure Of the unfortunate YES.
sci. Where the Argentina is TO find fuel
enough to enable her TO return to la Plata
appears to be an insoluble problem.
A steamer with cholera aboard arrived
oil Huelya, in Syain. The inhabitants
were panic stricken. and fed scross ths
frontier into Portugal
Depirr,bis.
The condition Of affairs at Aries is de.
plorable in the extreme The water supply
has been entirely cut of, owing to On scei.
dent in the hydraulic apparatus. The NJ.
mesous funerals Of the cholera victims have
been conducted by men who wcrc generally
drunk These funerals have, moreover.
been greatly retarded by the fact that tho
carpenters refuse TO make cotfins for thoss
who die Of cholera. Nearly I'll
the bakers and butchers have
left the city. The supply Of
food is consequently scarce and difficult to
obtain. The panic Throughout, the city is
simply indsscribable. The epidemic ap-
pears 10 be extending One death has oc.
Cured at Ssintes Mares de Ia Mer. The
inhabitants of that town want TO cSpel ell
the refugees from Aries. In six different
villages Of the department OF Bouchcs du
Rhoue from one 10 two deaths have oc-
CURED.
In Vintmiglia, Italy there have been ten
deaths. At Toulon two foolish youths
made bet as 20 which one could drink the
most sclizer water, One drank nine syphons
and the other eight Both died shortly af.
ter Of cholera.
