STEERAGES EMPTY.
Steamers Carrying Only First and
Second Cabin Passengers.

LONDON, Sept. 1S.-The Cunard line
steamer Servia, Capt. Dutton, from Liv-
erpool, which sailed from Queenstown
for New York today, carried $50 saloon
and 226 second cabin passengers. Her
steerage was empty.
The GuiOn line steamer Arizona, Capt.
Brooks, from Liverpool, also sailed from
Queenstown for New York today with
out any travellers in her steerage. She
had 1856 saloon and 296 second cabin
passengers on board.
The Queenstown authorities hence
forth announce that all danger of chOl-
era infection has ceased. A doctor will
board all the American liners arriving
at Queenstown from ports in the United
States, and that if any sickness is found
on steamer the vessel must be placed
in quarantine before any Of the passen-
gers are allowed to disembark. Other
wise the steamer must proceed direct
for Liverpool, only communicating
with Queenstown for the purpose of
procuring the services of pilot.
When the steamer Eppleton, from
Newcastle, arrived at Queenstown to-
day it was found by the health officials
that a seaman on board of the vessel
was suffering from choleraic disorder.
The doctors who have examined the
patient do not believe that the disease
with which he has been attacked is the
Asiatic type. The steamer was at once
ordered TO be placed in quarantine and
to be thoroughly disinfected and fumi-
gated. A close watch will be kept on
her, and every effort will be made to
prevent spread of the infection.

The Wyoming's Passengers

Islip's Health Board An
nounces That No Further
Protest Will Be Made.
"A Bulletin Showing That New
York Has No Suspected
Cholera Cases.

the Person Of a Canal
Boat Captain.

FIRE ISLAND, Sept. 1s.-Not the
slightest opposition was offered by the
lslip health authorities or bay men to
the landing OF the Wyoming's passen-
gers today. The belief among the mill
tary and civil officers in charge is that
the hostile demonstrations made were
due to the people not being thoroughly
acquainted with what had transpired
during the early part of last week. They
did not know that the resolutions. of
which copies were served yesterday,
had been adopted on Tuesday i'm
mediately after the landing of
the Normannia's passengers. and that
the lslip board of health had had within
a few hours announced that no further
protest would be made, but suits TO re-
cover penalty would be begun and
the matter taken to the grand jury. DIR.
Voight and Manager p. T. Wall had the
arrangements so complete for quietly
and pleasantly locating the new ar
rivals that within an hour after the
landing every one had possession of
room and had dined. Even those who
had protested most against the removal
here express satisfaction. No sickness
among the passengers is reported.

1--WE are accustomed to make sport of

A HANDY TABLE.

1t Would Be a Convenient Re-
ceptacle for Books, Papers, Etc.
New York Tribune.
A low table, designed especially to
hold the last magazines and newspa-
pers, is particularly desirable in a
country cottage, where, in the limited
quarters, the family usually dispense
with a separate room for library and
stow away all their books and papers in
the recesses of general sitting room.
Such table should be light in structure,
so that it may be easily moved to differ
ent corners of the room if desirable. A
little bamboo table. trifle over two
feet square. would be excellent for such
a purpose. One with lower shelf
set in near the floor would be ample
enough to hold the magazines and
newspapers of a family, provided it is
the rule, as it should be. to remove the
old ones as soon as the new ones come.
Otherwise the table will be likely to be-
come an uncomfortable ''clutter-place,"
impossible to keep in order. 1t is a good
plan to make and enforce the rule that
any one removing magazine or papar
to hammock, easy chair, piazza, lounge
or elsewhere from the table shall return
it to the table instead of casting it upon
the floor for the maid or mistress to pick
up. 1t would save great deal of un-
necessary trouble everywhere if each
member of the family took care of the
books and papers that they read. There
seems to be something in masculine nat
ure that considers the floor the legiti-
mate depository for a newspaper.

THE sINIsFER-FACED MAN.

Any Negligence in the Case.


Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
1t was just after the first sickening
crush of the collision. and the air was
filled with shrieks and groans, mingled
with the hiss of escaping steam.
The dark, sinister man with a smooth

rods, but by seeming miracle the
debris had not fallen upon him and his
limbs were free.

A faint smile played about his lips.

ID. ID. Carver, the state librarian, while

were printed by Shirley & Hyde,
OF Portland, between the years of
1870 and 1880 and were from the original
drawings made by Moses Greenleaf, a
noted surveyor in the early history of
the District of Maine. There were some
fifteen sets, each set containing six
maps. The first is map establishing
the principal original grants and sales

Col. ID. E. Austen. who lives in this city,

year 1913 the coffin containing his
remains was conveyed to Seville, where,
for nearly or quite thirty years, it rested
in the Carthusian convent of Las Cuevas.
Royal provisions relating to the removal
to San Domingo have been preserved,
bearing dates of 1887. 1889 and 1910.
From these orders and from the fact
that the cathedral at San Domingo was
completed in the year 154l, the inference
has been drawn that the transfer took
place in that year or little later.
There is evidence that the removal had
been accomplished before the year 1549.
