It is now certain that the outbreak of
cholera in Europe, of the present year.
has not nearly the intensity it had on
former occasions. Attention to sanitary
rules is once more proved to be the chief
preser'atiye against infection. The dis
ease has fastened less on whole sections
q the population than on scattered indi-
yidaals of sickly constitution. The fol-
lowing statistics bear out the theory that
the cholera loses in intensity with every
fresh appearance of it: In 1882 it killed
at Paris 20, 600 victims in a population of
SOO, 900; in 1S49, $4,000 in l, 200, 900,
and an in 1865, 5000 in 1900, 900. At

Wnat Mr.. Gallagher called ssunnaturalry

tlng up OF money on Gaudaur in a
secret way by some of Teemer's party.
Neither Teemer himself nor Gaudaur
nor st. John, his hacker, are
said to be concerned in this
transaction, however. Regarding
the condition of Teemer's boat.
Eph Morris thinks it was injured ia
the boat house of the Modoc club, but
makes no direct charge against, any
member of that club. The
fact that Teemer was on tho
water, in his shell, rowing
before the crowd seventeen minutes
prior to the start and is not known to
nave observed anything wrong with his
boat would indicated that the injury
was sustained during the race. The
decision of the referee seems to be
generally accepted as just and proper
under the circumstances.
