"Cholera follows the channels Of trade
and commerce." said DIR. Sayre. '1t

That is it's universal history, whether it
goes in the wake of an oriental caravan,
of pilgrimage to Mecca, on the trains
OF a railway or is brought in the steer
age of ship. 1t may come in the
clothes OF persons who have been ex-
posed q bale of rags may place nation

sidious in its movements, but it may be
kept out with proper vigilance, and
once here, with adequate treatment, it
may be- confined and finally extermi-
mated. 1.-The frost idea" the venerable
doctor continued, "does not carry in the

of November that she came, and the

acid across the hold. The sick were
thus fenced off from the we'll. Guards
were placed on this line with orders to
shoot any person who crossed it. All
clothes and bedding were immersed in
tubs OF carbolic acid with oil on top.
The sick were treated, and finally the
disease wore itself out. 1t was confined
to the ship. The conditions were much
more unfavorable then than POW, and
an efficient service ought to stop the dis
ease wherever it may show itself.
"The great need of the hour is federal
control of the guarantees. 1t must be
uniform and strict, and the only way
this can be secured is through the gen

not long after the Atlanta came to port
and the cholera was in tho country from
other sources. tried to use this Incl

they pooh poohed it. Senator Zachariah
Chandler was chairman of the com

the subject. He said he had had cholera

keep it out. asked him where he had

Bremen, Antwerp and Havre, would be
practically suspended until frost. The
inference is obviously that the chief of

Idea that frost will kill the cholera
germs and stop the disease, as it does in
the case of yellow fever
Nothing could be more erroneous.

A RING WHICH SEEMED TO BRING
DEATH 10 ITS OWNER.

Round the neck of the holy virgin
of Almudena, the patron saint OF
Madrid, for whom fine new church
is built close to the royal palace, a
very beautiful opal ring hangs on a
thin gold chain. The ring belonged
to the late King Alphonso XII, and
a strange history is connected with
it, which may well appeal to the
minds of the superstitious Spaniards.
On the day of his wedding to Mer-
cedes, the daughter of the duke of
Montpensier, the king gave the ring
to his bride, who wore it to her early
death. After the funeral the king
gave the ring to his grandmother,
Queen Christine, who died soon after.
Infanta Maria del Piler, the sister of
the king, then became itspossessor
She had worn it only few days
when she died. Then the ring be-
came the property of the king once
more and he gave it to the sister of
his late consort, Princess Christina,
the youngest daughter of the duke of
Montpensier. Three months later
the young girl was dead. The king
had now become aware of the un-
fortunate condolences, and instead
of giving it away again he himself
wore the ring till he also went to his
early grave.
