Kiel University Sends Out $50 Physicians
to Combat the Plague.
BERLIN, Aug. 30.-Kiel University has
sent out $50 physicians, under special in
structions, to work in cities where cholera
has appeared About half of the more
advanced students in the medical depart
ment are among the number.
Several cases of cholera are reported
from Rendsberg, 10 miles west of Kiel,
Oldesloe, about an hours ride from Ham :
burg, and Neumiister, II miles south
west of Kiel. In all these towns families
from Hamburg are said to have taken
temporary residence within the last week.
Following the policy Of the Kaiser to let
the public know all about the progress
and extent of the cholera visitation, Off
cial placards have been posted throughout
the city, announcing that cholera exists
here, and containing exhaustive advice
to the public on the subject of sanitary
arrangements.
The authorities are everywhere enjoin-
ing the strictest attention and obedience
to sanitary regulations, and the streets
are being cleaned with more than usual
thoroughness.
Dr. Harris Graham, an American ply
sician, said to have had experience with
cholera in Syria, is organizing the medi-
cal students to act as assistants and
nurses should cholera become epidemic in
Berlin.

A Cholera Suspect and an Undesirable
Immigrant Not Allowed to Land.
Boston, Aug. 30.-A saloon passenger
of the Cunard Steamer Cephalonia,
which arrived here from Liverpool Sun
day, lady who moves in the upper cir
cles of Boston society, was taken ill on
the day of the steamers arrival, and is
detained on board as a precautionary
measure against cholera.
Mrs. Lizzie G. McAndrews, aged 25, a
native of Bedford, County Mayo, Ireland,
a Storage passenger, is also detained on
board the Cephalonia by order of Emigra-
ton Inspector Colcord. Her husband
owns a public house in the old country,
and can give her comfortable home.
She deserted him and their six small
children, on the ground that her husband
was drinking man and often beat and
abused her She has friends in Cam
bridge, but the chances are that she will
not be allowed to land, as the officials
think that woman who could desert her
six little children would not prove a de-
sirabe acquisition to our population.

STEAMSHIP LINES AGREE.
No Dissent to the Strict Orders Issued by
New York's Health Board.

No Dissent to the Strict orders Issued by
New York's Health Board.
NEW York, Aug. 80.-At the meeting
between Health Officer Jenkins and rep
resentatives of all the foreign steamship
lines in this city he read the orders from
the Board of Health which provide that
all vessels which arrive from ports in
fected with cholera, and even those carry
ing passengers from the infected districts,
shall be put in quarantine for from two
to five days before being allowed to pro-
coed to their docks.
The steamship companies agreed to the
orders without dissent. They will do all
in their power to assist the Board of
Health.
The order issued reads as follows:
CAN vessels from cholera infected ports
or carrying Storage passengers from in
fected localities will be subjected to quar-
antine of detention from two to five
days. Passengers and their baggage will
be transferred to Hoffman Island where
they will receive bath, while baggage
and clothing are disinfected by steam.
Immediately after such transfer steer
age and cargo will be then disinfected.
1.-THE passengers will be then re-
turned to the vessel, which in the
absence of any development of suspicious
cases, will be allowed to proceed to her
dock"
This regulation is in accordance with a
telegram sent the Secretary of the Treas
ury requesting that the same regulation
at the port of departure be enforced
under the direction of the United States
Consul.
If the Health officer is satisfied upon
investigation that such regulations have
been carried out at such ports in regard
to emigrants, the above regulations will
be modified.
The above regulations will entail on
this department an enormous amount Of
labor but by the cooperation of thu
steamship companies it will be accom-
plished.

WAITING FOR THE BOYS TO GRO

Mother, in tho cottage yonder,
Why into the future wander,
Wishing for your boys to grow1
Childhood love is better, purer,
OF them you are ever surer,
Ere into the world they go.
While unto your voice they hearken,
Ne'er n shade they'll cause to darken
Your young motherhood's bright sky.
Take, each hour, its store of pleasures
Sure loves choicest, richest treasures
Round your babies childhood lie.
Wait not for the days you're planning,
All bright omens ever scanning,
Dreaming day dreams for your boys.
Others, too, have lost life's sweetness,
Lost their hopes in full completeness,
All by wasting present joys.
Futures oft strange undoing
or tho castles now we're viewing,
Tow'ring castles in the air.
So, fond mother, cease your yearning,
Taste the sweets you now are spurning,
While your babes are free from care.

Is the Earth HOLLOW

The orthodox Icelander believes that
the earth has an opening through it from
pole to pole; in other words, that it Is
the exact counterpart of a gigantic head.
According to their ideas all waters which
flow to the north are drawn thitherward
by suction created by the oceans trm-
bling downward through the hollow
which they firmly believe exists. Their
authority for this curious belief is the
"Utama Saga" a semisacred work writ
ten early in the Fourteenth century.
If this ancient volume is to be relied
upon, one Bjorn Liefson, fisherman,
who was driven northward By fierce
gale about the year 1891, is the only hui
man being who has ever seen the spot
where the waters of all oceans plunge
downward and are not seen again until
they have passed entirely through the
earth and again appear, bubbling and
frothing like mammoth spring at the
south pole. Symmes, an American
arctic explorer, is said to have enter
tanned a notion somewhat similar.

SECOND REUNI
ON OF THE G. X. OF A.

The Catholic Knights of America
Hall was well filled with an apprecia-
tive audience on the occasion of the
second literary reunion held under the
auspices of st. Charles Brrnch No. 1856
on Tuesday June 7th, 1892.
just about the time appointed for
the entertainment, the heavens be-
came darkened with ominous black
clouds, and the wind blew at a ire
mendoIs rate, thus preventing many
from coming to participate. At all
events, a sufficient number had come
to satisfy the G. K. of A. that their, lit
erary entertainments are appreciated.
The first lecture on the programme
was that of Judge L. P. Caillouet, who
for about an hour told his hearers IF
that mournful passage in history deal.
ing with the exiles of the Acadians
from their native land by their British
oppressors. The story of the Acadians
and their forcible repatriation possess
SEES a more than passing interest tor
our people who are, to q gre at extent.
descended from the exiles who settled
in Louisiana. Apart from this, the
characteristics OF the Acadians, their
mode of life, their gentle, christian
virtues, render their oppression by the
English IN inexcusable crime. All the
salient points in the sad history of this
pastoral people, were well brought ont
by the able lecturer who evidently had
mastered his subject, and listened to
with marked attention.
Judge Caillouet was followed by DR.,
Louis A. Meyer who took for his subject
the human Y By means of q black
board, the Doctor, who is an expert
o%culist, having made especially of this
branch OF surgery, entertained
his audience with u most instructive
and appreciated description of the
various component parts of the eye,
together with an account Of several t
the more difficult operations that are
performed ON the eye. DR.. Meyer has
a good clear voice, is perfectly self
possessed, and is a very pleasing lectu-
rer. We indulge the hope that the
Doctor will soou again, on some future
occasion, favor US with another lecture
ON some other instructive scientific
subject.
The Home Circle Orchestra, who
kindly offered their services,
furnished sweet strains of music for
the occasion.
