CHOLERA IN PORT.
One Case Discovered Among the ouaran-
tined Passengers.


NEW YORK, Aug. s. Health Officer Will
liam 7. Jenkins has officially announced
that there was a case of cholera among the
passengers of the Anchor line steamer kar-
amania, from Naples. The victim of the
plague. who is now we'll on the road to re
covery. is Lorenzo Moratio.
DR. jenkins states that the man will re
cover; that there is no danger of any fur
Their outbreak and consequently no neces-
sity for alarm. Every precaution has been
and will be taken to guard against the in
PRODUCTION of the disease by the passengers
into this country. The passengers will be
detained until every danger from cholera
has passed away.
DIR. Jenkins has given out the following
statement:
QUARANTINE, Aug. Q.
A biological examination in the case of the
man Lorenzo Moratio, isolated on Swinburne
island. has revealed choleraic haCili. He is re-
covering. All the other passengers removed
from the Karamsnia are in good health. The
Massillia arrived from Naples and Marscilles
with all well.
WILLIAM T. JENKINS Health Officer.
The Massilia from Naples, was stopped
in the lower bay on her arrival. DIR. Jenk-
ms was notified, as she comes from port
where the cholera is now raging in almost
epidemic form and where isolated cases eN-
listed previous to her sailing. She is looked
upon with suspicion. The fact that she
was one of the pest ships last year adds to
the suspicion with which she is regarded.
From now until all danger from cholera
has passed Health Officer Jenkins will is
sue daily bulletins giving the exact physi-
cal condition of all passengers on vessels
from infected ports or ports supposed to
be infected.

The Quaker in the Window

A man stands in our window,
Whom all the people love
He stands for all that's good and true,
Like an angel from above,
His face is honest, faithful kind
His thoughts are pure-subhme;
He rarely speaks, but always acts,
Oh how he values time
He tea hes us that honest goods,
Alone will bring Us fame;
And then he points with honest pride
To the range that bears his name.
The virtues Of the Quaker Range
Are known in every State:
1t heats your rooms and saves the coal,
And bakes the bread for Kate.
Your wife will greet you with a smile,
When you 60 home to dine
Divorces are unknown TO Us,
Tie Ranges work so fine.
Our mission on this earth is good,
We keep your tempers sweet
For wives ale always ont of tune,
If the range won't cook the meat,
Moral: Buy Quaker Fause and don't
