wards making the quarantine at this
point as nearly perfect as any other 10
the country. not excepting New Orleans
Dr. William p. Orr, jr, the quarantine
physician, has been in receipt of daily
messages from the surgeon general and
other authorities, and the tenor of these
shows that the intention of the govern
ment is to reduce the possibility of the
entrance of cholera TO minimum.
The Winona is TO assist the Louis
Pastcur in the quarantine work and
along with her will come a government
physician The Pasteur is now used as
a boarding vessel, but it will be en-
ployed for fumigating purposes, for
which it is designed. A furnace for the
generation of sulphur fumes can be con-
nected by hose and tubes with any yes
sci under surveillance and the sulphur
gasses thus transmitted. The Pasteur on

During the afternoon, however. he

ANTHRAX AND sYNTAx.
A Morning News Reporter sTixca tic Two
With Fatal Results.

Win IdttA A4t1N4Ncs
Anthrax has attacked horses in the
neighborhood Of Newport and deaths
are reported. DR.. Leonard Pearson, pro.
fessor Of the practice Of veterinary
medicine In the University Of Pennsyl
vania, has made post-mortem examina
tions, being assisted by Drs. H. p. Ewes
and d. Z. Buckingham. The Pennsyl
vanian pronounced it to be anthrax
in its worst form. Thus far
the animals on eight farms have been
affected. Buzzards that feed upon the
bodies of the COWS that died of the dis
ease, have, in many instances, been
known TO die. Anthrax is one thing
that buzzard cannot eat with impunity.
The remains of these iuelegant and in
judicious birds Of perverted taste were
incinerated, as was also the body Of
horse weighing 1 400 pounds.
Howard Gregg, a Newport man who
made q post-mortem examination Of an
'anthraxed' COW has q small case OF
blood poisoning on hand and would have
been dead several days ago If he had
read the sensational reports published In
several Of the Wilmington and Philadel
phia papers.
Clerk OF the Market s. n. Smeltz SAYS
that no butter is coming to the market
from the infected district Any vii.
mington housewife who finds anything
worse than a long gray hair IN any pound
Of butter bought in the local market
is requested TO Ia the print to him. II
it is not strong enough to get of the
electric car at Fourth and Market
streets.
The latest case represented is where a
Morning News reporter has anthrax with
syntax complications. Writing of al
'dnthraxed' pony, he gives it the fol
lowing touching obituary:
The physicians also saw a pony upon
the same farm which was affected with
anthrax. IL was dun and languid, ano
manifested abdominal pain, had stagger
ing gait and an anxious appearance.
1T was very weak ahd would have
died Sunday night If it had not been
killed as a preventive measure to prevent
the further spread Of the disease
Both horse and pony We're buried in
the same hole, covered with lime, and
the hole with earth
The anxious look" and being killed
| before it died and buried in hole GOV
cred with lime, and the hole with earth
are regarded as sure signs of anthrax
/ The same reporter quotes Dr. Ewes a,
saying: ''Ihe disease may spread or il
may stop. / am unable to say whether
it will spread or stop" Taken altogether
there is a certain element of uncertainty
about anthrax that makes it highly
/ amusing
