Worked His Pas sage.

Wash Hight. the rapids pilot, is equal
to every emergency that may arise. The
other day. after steering ore of the great
packets of the Diamond j. line up over
the rapids and having missed railway
connections for returning, lie espied fiat
boat floating serenely down the river
He hailed 1t and on its Ian ling mounted
In such dignified manner that its mas
ter took him for governn ent official of
some kind and was frighte ned nearly to
death. Wash saw his opportunity at a
glance and made dicker with the cap
tain by which he stood on the roof and
pointed out the proper channel through
the rapids to the man at the rudder and
thus saved walking to Rock Island, ar
irving here about fifteen minutes earlier
than he would had he trustt to his pedal
extremities.
Hight leaves tomorrow orning for st.
Louis, his winter home. the steamboat
season on the upper river having prsc>
tically closed. but he will not go by nat-
boat this time. He may rot be up here
next year, as he has the political bee
buzzing in his bonnet. but somebody
else may get the sting and Wash the
honey. Wash has made enough argu.
ments in favor of protection In the las,
few years to secure little for himself
He will get 1t if the g. o. p. has any
gratitude left in Its marrow bones

Miss Hattie Harvey, who appears at
Harper's theatre tomorrow night and Sat-
urdsY afternoon and evening. made her
debut in THE Little Tramp" at Milwsu-
kee on Friday evening last. The drama.
tic critic OF the Milwaukee Sentinel used
half a column in giving a description of
Miss HsrveY's success, and the Evening
Wisconsin said that Miss Harvey is
sweet, talented ana graceful" and that
"she showed signs of budding greatness
already partly fulfilled" The star is sure
Of crowded houses here. Aside from
the intrinsic excellence of the play and
the actress. Miss Hsrveys appearance
gains an added interest in the fact that
she was at one time a we'll known local
adept with the roller skates, and her
father, j. F. Harvey. who by the way
travels with the company. was st one
time manager Of the Rock Island rink.
The famous singer Emma Abbott, ap-
pears at the Burtis opera house at Day
export, tomorrow and Saturday night

The famous Hsnlon Bros. appear at

and Monday. with Sunday matinee. Of
the attraction the New York Herald
says:
1t has come TO be as the known truth.
requiring no demonstration. that what
ever the Hanlons do OF identify them
selves with, it is always q success. In
deed, these famous brothers have never.
since their boyhoOd, made q failure of
anything connected with the stage, and
their names alone, attached to the play OF
"Fantasma, would be a sufficient guar,
sntee of its great worth. Through a
knowledge of the managerial ability and
honesty of these gentlemen alone, their
play might be highly endorsed. but fur
ther than this we have enjoyed the privi-
lege Of Witnessing its performance, and
can therefore speak the more positively
as to Its merit. A-better play of its kind
than "Fantssms" has never been seen in
America, and as such deserves the crowd
ed houses it is drawing at the Fifth Ave
nue. theatre.

The United States steamer Gen. Bar
nard came down the river Monday. She
stopped long enough to turn over the
dump boat sunk on the rapids and re-
pair it. This was a Job q little too

Capt Pierce says if she could not turn
over the dump boat she can outrun any
boat of her size on the river, barring Be-
dsr Woods sand boat.

Checking Diphtheria.

Feeling that the continued existence of
diphtheris is due to lack of precaution on
the part of families wherein the disease is
located, Health Commissioner Eyster has
issued the following notice which will be
sent to all infected houses:
You are hereby notified to use due pre-
caution against the exposure of any per-
sons to the contsgion of diphtheris
during its continuance on the premises
occupied by you. You are also duly
notified to use proper sanitary measures
for the disinfection of said premises i'm
med!ately after the termination of the
disease. GEO. L. EYsTER, NJ. D.,
Com. of Health.
This notice is given in conformsnce to
sec. ~, general sanitary regulations Of
chapter 8. Of the city ordinances and
must be strictly followed or the penalty
for its violation will be enforced.
The health department suggests the
best and easiest means of disinfection Of
premises for contagious disease is the
burning Of sulphur in the different rooms
after the openings into the same have
been carefully closed.

CAUSE OF YELLOW FEVER.

BALTIMORE. Md. Sept. 26.-Dr. Geo. NJ
Sternberg, major and surgeon, United
States army, has just returned from a siA
months STAY in Cuba, where he has beea
continuing his researches with reference
to the cause and prevention of yellow fe-
yer. He found in the hospitals a sufficient
number Of cases. and in the course of the
summer made thirty autopsies. He
has brought with him specimens
in alcohol and cultures OF
microbes. with which he will continue his
Investigations during the winter at the
Johns Hopkins unworthy. AT the end OF
this time he hopes TO present general re-
port of his Investigations to President
Harrison.
''ldy researches mp to the present." said
DR.. Sternburg, have moi led to a positive
demonstration OF the specific cause of the
disease. But / have isolated a con-
siderable number OF pathose0ic bacelli
disease producing germs from the
intestines Of yellow fever cases,
and have strong hopes that one
or more of these may prove to be the
specific germ. | have confirmed my pre-
rlouS conclusions as to the ahSeuce of a
specific microbe organism In the blood and
TISSUES of the patients, and have failed &c
find III any of ny cases the germ which DR..
F'rere OF Brazil. has claimed TO he the cause
of the disease. For this reason | have
given my attention entirely to the bacilli
of the alimentdry canal. As none of the
lower animals are subject to the yellow
fever, and incubation will, therefore, be
impossible, ii viii be extremely difficult
to arrive Mt positive demonstra-
ZION. 1t will, moreover, be
necessary TO make extensive comparative
researches TO ascertain the character of the
bacterial flora III tie inteStines in other
diseases. | have isolated Il long list Of I'M
known and undescIibed bacteria found in
the digestive system of yellow fever pat
tents. But have yet to prove that some
OF these are uniformly constant in this
disease and are not found in others. For
instance, in all nv researches, have never
found the comma bacillus of Koch, now
generally believed TO be the cause OF
cholera"

BY EGOLTEN METAL.
A Carnegie Manager Horribly Burned
W0rkmen Injured.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Sept. pa frightful
accident occurred at Carnege's Edgar
Thompson steel works at Braddock to-
night Captain W. b. Jones, general man
ager of the works, and a number of work
men were horribly and perhaps fatally
burned. While examining it for some de-
fec5 the bottom OF furnace &C., one of the
largest OF the blast furnaces, gave way and
six car loads OF molten metal ran out like
water The terrible rush of the liquid
metal knocked Mr. Jones down into the
lit. Fortunately he fell between the trucks
or he would have been burned To death
When removed from the pit his clothing
had been entirely burned from his body.
The injured are Michael Quinn, so badly
burned that his skin peeled off with his
clothing. He will die.
John Mokak, burned about the arms
and chest.
Captain Ned Quinn, badly burned about
the body.
Patrick Hughes, burned about the body.
Michael Counor, burned about the body.
Michael King cannot be found. 1t Is
feared he was buried under the motion Ii
auid.
Tie 5000 wOrkmen at the steel works
are frantic with grief on account of the
injuries which Captain Jones received.
He is well known throughout the United
States ami Europe, wherever steel and
iron are manufactured. HIS income is
so, 600 a year from his connection with the
steel works. 1t was he VINO took at his
own expense 800 men to Johnstown after
The catastrophe there and aided for two
weeks in the work of rescue and repairs.
At midnight physicians said that Cap
tain Jones had chances of recovery, and it
is believed his face will not be much dis
figured. Two OF the workmen will die.

BAD FOR BURKE.
Criminal Work Evidently Done by the
Louisiana Treasurer.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Sept. 26 The state
ment of Marsh Stoddart. cashier of the
state treasury during Burkes term, that he
had called Burke's attention in 1888 to the
fact that coupons had been presented Of
bonds supposed to have been destroyed,
was cabled to Major Burke III London. In
reply Burke says it is impossible TO attempt
an explanation respecting publications OF
this character, Of which he is ignorant
touching matters Of years ago. He then
shows how the apparent discrepancies
might exist in the payment OF coupons
which are not also presented
when due. In conclusion he says: "lf
l abandon my business here | will
lose the results of SIX months struggle
The day the papers are signed releasing
me from the trusts of the bonds | will sail
for Louisiana. | hold myself responsible
for the Office, and no person Will tor an in
slant be permitted TO bear shadow of
criticism on its account"
Attorney General Rogers being inter
viewed said he did not think Major Burke
was surprised by the disclosure. When
the affairs of his office were examined by a
legislative committee and his books re-
ported to be correct, Major Burke natur-
ally felt relieved. He must have known,
however that the matter would not end
there, but the defalcation in his office
must eventually become known. H fur
Their stated that a state warrant which had
been paid long ago was recently presented
for payment again, and it was found that
Burke had himself given the warrant to a
bank as collateral for loan.
Judge W. b. Stansbury. who was for
some time engaged with eX-Trcasurer
Burke in business capacity, makes a
statement showing that some years ago be
negotiated for Major Burke at different
times loans amounting to thousands of
dollars, always depositing as collateral
state bonds handed TO him by Major Burke
for that purpose. In the first transactions,
made in 1854 and 1886, the numbers Of the
bonds were kept. Comparing them with
the numbers now published by Treasurer
Pipes as fraudulent, he finds that among
the bonds handled by him there were
nearly S20, 900 fraudulent. After the first
few transactions he did not keep the num-
bers, because Burke told him that it was
not necessary as he (Burke) had them.
