IL the Crisis Here7
DR.. Jenkins has made arrangements
for meteorological examination to be
made of the bedding and effects of the
twenty-five victims, and will not pro-
nounce an opinion as to whether the
deaths were caused by the dreaded ASH
attic cholera Until the examination has
been completed.
DIR. Jenkins is very reticent and re-
fuses to pronounce fat-footed opinion.
He says:
II got the surgeons report about 10
o'clock, and at once called Dr. Tall
madge and Sanborn, my deputies, into
consultation. We arrived at conclu-
sion, but what it was positively refuse
at this time TO say"
"You have Observed" he added in a
suggestive way, "that the Asiatic chol-
era was diagnosed as cholerine in all the
infected ports by the local authorities
at the outset, but subsequent develop
ments proved every one of such cases to
be the actual and genuine Asiatic
plague"
DR.. Tallmadge refused to answer any
questions whatever, relative to the
Moravias death list ~ am not in au
thority, was his answer to all questions.
"You must see DR.. Jenkins"
DIR. Tallmage insinuated, however,
that he believed the crisis had come, and
that from this time forward the closest
vigilance must be kept at the lower sta
tions down the harbor to prevent the dis
ease from getting as near to this city

ALTHOUGH THEY WE'RE FORTY or

VIcToRIA, B. O., Sept. 1.-THE Amer

reached here Tuesday evening, having
aboard the captain and crews of four
sealing schooners, Rosie, Olsen, Ariel
and Willie MCGOWAN, flying the British
flag, and the American schooner G. Ell.
White, of San Francisco.
These four were sealing off Copper
Islands, between forty and fifty miles,
during the latter part'of July, when the
Russian warship Zabraka, mounting six
teen guns, and the fur company's steam
or Kodiak, bearing the government Of
Behring's Island, rounded them up one
by one, sent the schooners to be sold at
Petropaulovsh and made the captain
and crew prisoners.
The former objected to the seizure,
claiming they were free men on free
waters, whereupon the marines pricks 4
them with the points Of their bayonets
and informed them there was such a
place as Siberia for those who spoke too
loudly Of freedom. Both the British
and American shippers recognized that
1t was no time for talking. Still they
ventured to protest that they were away
outside the three-rniie limit and were
met with the astounding information
from the officers of the Zabraka, "Rus-

Cross Old February.


February is a cross old vixen.
She cannot make the least preten-
sion to beauty, and is entirely de-
pendent upon an occasional display
of Jewels, or a downy mantle OF
snow or particularly dazzling sun
set of ribbon at her throat, for all
the charms she yields us. Aside
from these few outward adornments
she is peculiarly loveless, joyless
and unprepossessing creature. l

late for the matinee and too early
for the ball. Flat and uninteresting

DR.. Dunbar at Sturgeon.

DR.. Dunbar, who had such a sue
cess in Mexico a few days since,
will be in Sturgeon from the 18th of
March for ten days. DR.. Dunbar is
one of the most famous eye, ear and
throat specialists we know of any
where in this portion of the coun-
try. He meets with success where
ever he goes. His second visit to a
town is always more successful than
his first. This shows that he wears
well with the people and does what
he agrees to do. The Centralia
Guard, referring to DR.. Dunbar,
says CDR. J. E. Dunbar, whose
success in the treatment of eye and
ear diseases has gained for him
reputation that has made him ia

March II, 1882, and will remain 2
weeks, at the Commercial Hotel.
DIR. Dunbar is frank and honest with
his patients, and if he cannot cure a
case he will say SO. While in Cen
tralia his office was constantly
crowded with patients, and he ac-
complished wonders in the way of
cures, and gave perfect satisfaction
in every case. Those who are suf-

to consult the doctor, as he charges
