In a moment she was blazing bundle
and regaining her feet ran shrieking to

carried to neighboring house, the
flames having been quenched. She was
horribly burned on every part of her

three hours after the commission of the
deed, in hiding at the place where he
was employed as a baker. To the police

Lecture on Monday by Professor Chester
lsefore the Natural History SncietY.

h,eAoro bhe NATURAL history society.
Professor Frederick ID. Chester of
Delaware College lectured before the
Natural History Society of Delaware
Monday night in the assembly room at
Friends school, Fourth and West streets.
His subject was "F'ungi and Fungous
Diseases" He was assisted in his work
by Professor NJ. II. Beckwith, who used
his fine stereopticon to illustrate many
of the features of the lecture. These
included potato, grape, wheat and oat
fungi. The lecturer stated that the peach
rot fungus causes loss of one-sixth to
one-fourth of the crop. The lecturer
described several local and successful
experiments with the Bordeaux mixture
upon the grape rot in one vine
yard at Smyrna in 1888 before the
mixture was applied the yield Of
grapes was 250 pounds. The mixture was
used in 1889, 1890 and 1891, and the
crops were respectively $500, 5000 and
10000 pounds. The Bordeaux mixture
consists of % gallons of water, six
pounds of bluestone and four pounds of
lime. The government pays 100000
each year for its 46 agricultural expert
ment stations, and the discovery of the
prevention of disease in wheat or oats
would much more than pay all Of that
expense.

The National Republican Committee May
Estabiish Western Mendq rnrtrr..

h<huqtthftffr-
II is likely that the national republican COM
mittee will establish western headquarters in
Chicago, according to the New York sun.
Editor Rosewater Of the Omaha Bee and the
national committeeman from Nebraska arrived
there from New York Yesterday and announced
that a meeting OF the western executive COM
mittee Of the national committee would be held
in Chicago in a week OF ten DAYS. The object
of the meeting is 20 thoroughly look over the
situation and TO determine where there Is any
need Of extra effort 20 counteract the work now
being done in the west by the democratic cam
paign committee.
This committee consists OF W. \. Campbell
of Illinois, Henry c. PAYNE Of Wisconsin. J. ~
Huston Of Indiana, VI. L. Evans Of Minnesota
and L. Rosewater of Nebraska.
The democrats are certainly making q big
effort in the west, 7" said Mr.. Rosewater, and
any one with half eve can see that special
efforts are 20 be made TO carry illinois, I GER
tainly do not think need TO worry about
Illinois or any of the western states nut the
national committee will cooperate with the
state committee. There is no question about
that. Ii il vet too early 20 determine what
will be done, and many things NAV develop
before election day TO change the situation. I
doubt il we viii know just what we will have 10
do before October 1, when the campaign viii

How the Sick and the Dead Are Transported
I'm the Stricken City.

Special Cable to the New York Herald.
HANsURa. Sept. 5.-The cholera reports
from here have been exaggerated beyond doubt,
but the situation is serious. Authentic and re-
liable statistics are hardly obtainsble There is.
however, no doubt the authorities Yesterday
transported 10 the hospitals AS patients and
that the deaths numbered 15s. Besides these
many are under treatment nj private residences,
and many funerals took place which are not re-
ported by the authorities. From all can
learn, there are about 500 new cases daily and
over 200 deaths. Most of the bodies are buried
in trenches at Ohlsdorf cemetery. which is six
miles out of town. The hospital and numerous
barracks are being utilized 10 relieve regular
hospitals.
Hamburg was in no way prepared for what
appears inevitable and has 10 suffer in conss-
quence. The sick are conveyed 20 the hospital
in coaches with seats turned over, while the
dead are transported in old furniture vans and
bakers wagons. The whole matter OF trans
portation in the hands Of a cholera commits
sion OF the senate and the police, although
there are associations of private citizens which
are doing good work. The latter are attending
to the dirinfection Of houses where there have
been cholera cases, the local authorities having
declared their inability 20 do this.
Over dozen gymnasiums are converted into
disinfecting establishments. The bedding Of
the cholera patients is burned IN the fields.
Around the city will be posted notices warning
the pubic against using unboiled water. a. the
supply comes from the river Elbe, into which
the sewers empty.
Till recently the most OF the cases have oc-
Cured among poorer classes, but now the
Weather classes are also attacked. The su-
burbs ere especially affected All summer the
