tines are empowered to act in emergen-
cies as officers of the national quaran-
tine.
In 1879 a national board of health was
created, but was allowed to expire soon
after by failure to make appropriations
for it. In 1888 eight federal quarantine
stations were established. These divide
between them the entire coast of the
United States and are under the control
of the national marine hospital service.
Thenerve center, so to speak, of all their
ramifcations is in the so called Butler
building at Washington, a granite struc-
ture directly facing the Capitol on the
south.
In the entire service are over 500 per-
sons distributed among the quarantine
stations near the coast cities. AT their
head, with almost absolute power, is DR..
Walter Wyman, and his assistants are
Surgeons II. w. Austin, f. w. Mead, J.
J. Kinyoun and G.. T. Vaughan. Be
sides, there are sixteen other graduated
surgeons, twenty-five passed assistant
surgeons, eighteen assistant surgeons,
seventy-six acting assistant surgeons
and thirty hospital stewards. The re-
naming $50 persons are nurses, attend
ants, seamen and quarantine officers Of
various grades.
The service employs six vessels. Four
are simply disinfecting steamers and
used only locally at the main stations;
but two, the Dagmar and the Charles
Foster, are fine seagoing steamers. By
the last assignment the former is on duty
at the Delaware breakwater and the lat
ter at the Cape Charles quarantine. The
other six quarantine stations are located
on Sapelo island, Georgia, Key West and
the Dry Tortugas, on Chandalour island,

KEEPING OUT CHOLERA.

How the Federal Quarantine Service Is
Conducted.
Surgeon General Walter Wyman has
suddenly and one might say painfully
become an exceedingly prominent mem
Der of the federal government, for he is
at the head of the marine hospital and
national quarantine establishment. AS
the law now stands he has the last word
on preventive measures, and the medical
authorities say cholera is certain to get
in unless extraordinary precautions are
taken to keep it out. The prospect is
anything but pleasant Cholera is al
ready prevalent in some foreign ports.
It's entrance here at any time would be
an evil, but this year a calamity indeed,
for, in the expressive language of Witness
Wilkinson in the Beecher trial, it would
knock the Worlds fair higher than a
kite"
Congress has taken the matter up, and
so have all the medical associations in
the coast cities. Many others have added
their advice, and in the multitude of
counselors there is deal of confusion.
Shall there be national or local quaran-
tine or combination of the two? Shall
immigration be suspended for one year
from March 1, as Senator Chandler pro-
poses, or for few months only, as others
propose, or a rigid system of inspection
be relied on, as Congressman Rayner, of
Maryland, and Brosius, of Pennsylvania,
propose?
Surgeon General Wyman goes much
further. He would combine the several
stringent measures proposed and have
not only national quarantine and very
rigid inspection of all cabin passengers,
but total suspension of immigration by
steerage to begin at once. He wanted it
on the LIST of January and thinks that
valuable time has already been lost And
it is a fact worth noting that the leading
physicians in the Atlantic coast cities
agree with him. Meanwhile it is salts
faction to know that the national quar-
antine service is already well organized
and has often proved its efficiency.
1t was founded by law in 1859 and
has since been much improved and ex-
tended. In 1871 it was reorganized and
made bureau of the treasury depart
ment. The statute of 1899 provided for
the observance of state health regula-
tons by federal officers and gave the
president power to purchase or erect
quarantine warehouses and to remove
certain branches of the government to
places of safety during epidemics of con-
tagious diseases. By the law of 1878
vessels arriving from infected ports are
to be kept out, United States consuls are
required to report the state of health at
such ports and to notify the marine hos
pital service of the departure of infected
vessels, while officers of state quaran-

They Were of Catholic Churches at New
Orleans and st. Paul.
Twenty-six years have passed since
the first work was done on st. Joseph's
church, New Orleans. and it was only
on the last day of last July that it was
opened for the public to see the interior
and but few days ago that it was dedi-
Gated. The history of its slow progress
and the efforts Of the congregation to
complete it would be sort of epitome
of the financial and other disturbances
which have troubled New Orleans since
1856.
The church is an imposing structure.
and in the interior the arched vestas and
lofty ceiling created feeling of solemn
awe and certain sense of vastness;
nevertheless the church is not 40 re-
markable in itself as in its history The
largest religious assembly seen in New
Orleans for many years was gathered,
and the dedication was attended with
most impressive ceremonies. Archbishop
Janssens officiated, Rev. Francis Nugent
delivered the sermon. Bishop Fitzgerald.
of Little Rock, pronounced the benedic-
ton. and all the Catholic societies and
sisterhoods of the city took part.

The Garden and Forest. in a valuable
article on arbor culture. says that street
trees sometimes need pruning. If. how
ever, they have been originally well Sc
lected small knife will be all that is
necessary for few years to remove an
occasional branch that sta rts ont in the
wrong place. There is rarely any neces-
sity for cutting off large limb. If this
necessity ever does come the limb should
be cut off close to the trunk and the
place smoothed over and painted, so that
the wound will be ultimately covered
with healthy bark.
We have often explained that wher-
ever a stub is left this must inevitably
die, and as the trunk grows about it
there will be Il plug of rotted wood where
the branch originally grew, and the
disease will eat inward and downward
as the water soaks in from without
After street trees have attained mature
size pruning is rarely needed beyond the
occasional cutting away of dead branch
or the removal of one which interferes

seem very remarkable that amid the
glorious scenery of the Rocky noun
tains the poets should treat of men
rather than nature. yet it is fact that
to the poetesses rather than to the poets
do we owe the finest touches on natures

Miss Sarah Carmichael (ater Mrs.

and wonderful beauty, as in her poem
called THE Origin of Gold" she told
how
The Fallen One looked on the earth and sneered.

The poem then tells how he took the
