None of the Plague Stricken Immigrants
Are in Pittsburg.
Up until late hour last night none of
the Massialia passengers reported as having
come to this city had been located, though
every effort had been made to do so. The
health inspectors were on the lookout all
day and every Italian and Hebrew colony in
the city was visited. The only persons of
either nationality coming into the city yes
terday were three Italians and they were
located at house on Liberty street oppo-
site Union station. They proved that they
had been in the country several months
and came here from the anthracite regions.
A telegram from Philadelphia yesterday
stated that it had been officially learned
that IA persons, all Italians, from the ty-
phus smitten vessel, had come to Pittsburg.
The officials here, however, after iyester-
days fruitless search, express the opinion
that if the men came this wav thev have To-
Gated at some point outside the CITY, 1t is
claimed that in the time that had elapsed
since the immigrants landed, unless they
really have the disease themselves, there is
no real danger of contagion. 1t is claimed
that all the immigrants really affected by
the disease were taken to the pssthouse at
New York and none got away.

A Greek Mob in the Port of Athens Show
Their Hatred of Protestants.
ATHENS, Feb. 15.-During the service at
the Protestant Church at the Piraeus (the
Port OF Athens) yesterday, fanatical mob
made an attack upon the building and
forced their way to the interior. They Sc
verely maltreated the minister and the au-
dience. They stole everything of value in
the church and then set fire to it. Before
the flames could be extinguished the in
terror Of the church was destroyed.
News of the affair reached the military
authorities, and a detachment of troops was
hurriedly sent to the scene. When the
troops arrived they found the building
burning. Their efforts were at once di-
rected to extinguishing the flames, which
they succeeded in doing, but not until the
inside of the church had been burned be-
yond repair. Most of the members Of the
mob remained in the vicinity watching the
fire. After they had subdued the fire the
soldiers turned their attention to the van
dals and made many arrests.

Worlds Museum Theater.

The performance of an amusing comic
opera is the chief attraction here this week.
1t is Henry j. Byron's "Blue Beard" and
the Fitzgerald & Lewis Comedy Company
render it very well. Ella Lewis brings good
looks and plenty of chic to her impersona-
tion of Fatinsa and Harry Fitzgerald as
the villain Shacabac is decidedly funny.
The rest of the cast and the mounting
of the piece are good. In the curio
hall number of enteresting features
are provided, including Fatima, the snake
charmer; Captain Chittenden's wild Ameri-
can collection of cur1os, and Dodretti the
American Samson. Large audience at

BENEATH THE WAVES.

A Great Spectacular Melodrama at the
Bijou Theater.
The sensational realism in sThe Bottom
of the Sea- is about as fine triumph of
scenic art as the melodramatic stage has
seen in recent years. 1t is this wonderful
representation of scenes that no man can
see outside the theater, unless he emulate
Magnify, that makes the play a prodigious
success This is its second visit to this the
ater, but the house was filled last night
with an enthusiastic audience. The scenery
worked all right, and the actors are quite
good enough for the play. Altogether it is
q better spectacular melodrama than any
thing on the road this season.

Harry Davis Museum-Theater.

The first day of the six days rowing
tournament between the noted oarsmen
Wallace Ross and Ed Monnagher attracted,
as was expected, large crowd to Harry
Davis Fifth Avenue Museum all day ves-
terday. This was not the only attraction.
Snake charmers, mind readers, traveller
with Indian trophies and the Fitzsimmons
relics added their drawing powers to say
nothing of the very clever vaudeville pro-
gramme in the theater.

In olden times it was the pressure of the
thumb upon the wax of documents seal
that made the deed valid and binding in
strument and in verbal contracts the thumb
ratified the bargain. Goths and Iberians
completed an agreement by licking and
joining their thumbs, as Scotchmen once
did and Moors still do, and rustic lovers
once Detrothed themselves and licking their
respective master fingers and then pressing
them together, as they vowed to remain
faithful to each other for ever and a day.

visitor here, and of late has been seen at
this popular house several times, but the
present company presenting it has never

is it weak. The scenery is good enough,

delight yesterday.
