Sanitary Precautions are Meeting
with the Desired Results.

QUARANTINE, N. Y, September 7. Oil
tank Brilliant, which arrived from Ham
burg on Sunday, was inspected and fumi-
igated by DR.. Talmadge today and allowed
to go up. The Steamer Wyoming which

Talmadge. She has 27s cabin and 1853
steerage passengers aboard. Among the
steerage passengers were fifty Russians.
The emigrants are liable to be detained
sometime. The Western Union steamer
left here this morning to lay a cable to
Sw1nbOTne Island which will be connected
with the Doctors Office in the city of New
York,
According to reports of the police, eigh-
ty-nine new cases and forty-seYen deaths
from cholera occurred in Paris on Monday

NEW YORK, September 7.-The weather
is bright, frostier and every way more brac-
ing than any day since the cholera made
its appearance at this port. Here in New
York all feeling of alarm has subsidized as
the work of cleaning and disinfecting goes
on.
New YORK, September 7.-steamer
Waesland from Antwerp arrived off Sandy
Hook this morning. She reports all well

QUARANTINE, September 7.-Ex-Surgeon
General Hamilton said this afternoon that
he thought cholera could be successfully

OLYMPIA THE PLACE
For the U. S. Circuit Court Of
Appeals to Meet.
The Washington and Montana
state Bar Associations Desire
a More Convenient Place for
Meeting, than san Francisco.

A most important meeting of the Wash
ington State Bar association has been called
to meet in the supreme court rooms in this
city on October 10. Elwood Evans, of Ia
coma, is the president, N. S. Porter secre-
tary, and A. P. Fitch treasurer.
Should the proper interest be taken and
the necessary influence be brought to bear
it is just possible that the Bar association
may succeed in securing two meetings each
year in this city of the United States cir
cult court of appeals. IfOlYmpia does not
get it, Portland will, although it
is generally conceded that Olympia would
be the more central point for the North
west territory, and of the greatest conven-
fence to the members of the bar of this dis
trict who have business to transact.
The Ninth judicial district comprises all
the Pacific coast states, and at present the
United States circuit court of appeals holds
all its sessions in San Francisco, which is
necessarily great inconvenience to those
states on the border OF the district,
The bar association of Montana, at a re-
cent meeting, passed resolution in which
it presented to the justices of the court the
expense and Inconvenience to. which the
members of its bar were submitted and
asked that at least two meetings be held in
Portland each year.
The Washington association will give
the matter careful consideration, and if it
is successful in securing the sessions of the
court in this CITY, the importance and
value to Olympia is apparent.

Bay.
Outcome OF the County Organtza-

Sunday, in which the schools of the neigh
boring towns will participate. Sunday
school workers will be present from Olym-
pia and other parts of the country. A large

ing made to serve dinner on the grounds
after the manner of camp meeting. 1t is
expected that many will bring their din
ners in baskets and thus improve the op-
portunity afforded for widening their circle

This proposed conventionis is the outcome
Of the County Sunday School association,
formed last winter Of which M. G. Royal
is president and Chas. H. Koontz secre-
tary. Vice presidents were appointed in
variousparts of the county and the result
is apparent in the general improvement of

district held at South Union six weeks ago.
e. Hopkins is the vice president for that
district. Jessie +. Mills was secretary of
the institute, Mrs. Julia A. Wood treasu-
rer, and Miss Myrtle A. Gilliland organist.

vice president, Mrs. Julia A. Wood Eme-
lima Stewart, ]. Bryant and Miss Maggie
GunstOne.

ffty-siX scholars, this number being six
more scholars than were enrolled in the
public school of that district. This Sun

The Independence Sunday school has
six teachers and twenty-six scholars, the
number being two in excess of the public
school enrolment.

EXPEDITIONS ICE BOUND.
Pears for the Safety of the Peary
and Kite Paaties.

PHILADELPH1A, Pa, September 7.-"If
reports of the ice extending hundreds of
miles south of Mccormick bay be true,
God help the Peary and Kite relief party"
said Secretary Nolan of the academy of
the natural sciences last night. Consider
able fear is felt in this city as to the fate
of the Arctic explorers, owing to the de.
layed arrival of the Cuyslite from IVigtut,
the Greenland port of Peasemename. This
vessel has passed Cape Race and is expect
ed at Philadelphia daily. 1t has been said
that she was ice-bound at IYigtut since last
June and as Ivigtut is 500 miles south Of
Mccormick bay, where Peary's headquar-
ters are located, the most serious fears are
entertained that the Kite was never
reached at Mccormick bay, but is stuck in
ice closed in about her. The Kite was
known to have taken no extra supplies for
an extended stay. 1t is believed that if
she is forced to spend the winter in ice her
provisions will become exhausted before
January 1st.

derson building was moved up to the side
walk, today filed an application ID the su-
perior court of Thurston county for a di-

in her complaint that her husband is an
habitual drunkard and that he has
neglected to provide for her support for the
past two years. Among other things she
alleges abusive language and personal vio-
lence. A specific instance is mentioned
where, on the first of October, 1890, less
than a month after the wedding, he beat
her with a glass bottle and a club and
choked her badly. Upon this and similar
cases of i'll treatment she bases her plea
for divorce and the restitution of her
maiden name, Elizabeth Murphy.

from Farm Lffe--A Few Facts
Regarding His POeticaI works.
HAMPTON FALLS, N. H., September -
John G. Whittier, the poet, died at 4:8O
this morning.
John Greenleaf Whittier, poet, was born
in Haverhill, Mass, December II, 1907.
His parents belonged to the Society of
Friends, of which he was also member.
He worked on farm until his 10Th year,
attended Hayerhill acaCemy two years; in
1928 became editor of the American Manu-
facturer in Boston. and in 1880 of the New
England Weekly Review at Hartford. But
he soon returned to the farm and in 1856
was member of the Massachusetts, legisla-
ture.
In 1896 he was appointed secretary of the
American Anti-slaVery society, and re-
moved to Philadelphia, where in 1889 he
edited the Pennsylvania Freeman, the Of
flee of which was sacked and burned by
mob. From this time he was one of the
most prominent anti-slavery men in the
country, and his writings, both prose and
poetry, were largely in support of that
cause. In 1910 he removed to Amesbury,
Mass. (where he resided for over thirty-six
years., and became corresponding editor
of the National Era, an anti-slavery news
paper published in Washington He never
married.
His publications include seven of prose
and seventeen of poetry. As poet Whit
tier was more peculiarly American than
any other of equal fame. His poems were
largely inspired by current events, and
their patriotic, democratic and humane
spirit gave them a strong hold upon the
public. One of Mr.. Whittier's most popu-
lar literary achievements was the writing
OF a hymn ior the opening of the centen-
nial exhibition at Philadelphia in 1876.
Whittier passed away peacefully. His
nearest relatives and DR.. Douglas were at
the bedside when death came and he
seemed to be conscious of his surroundings
to the last moment. The funeral will take
place at Amosbury, Mass. next Saturday.
