THE PASSING OF CHOLERA.
It May Never Again Amount to Plague in any Civilized Land.
 TEror, ha Topdop TYy,a1

It May Never Again Amount to a Plague in any Civilized Land. From the London Times-I Dr. Klein, F. R. S., lecturer on general anatomy and physiology at St. Bartholo- news hospital, delivered q lecture on cholera at the London Institution on Thursday night.
 The lecturer esid that the prevention of cholera was besst with less difficulty than that of some of the communicable diseas- es which in towns we had almost constant ly among us. He quoted an account by Mr. Ernest Hart of the great religious fes- tival of Kumbh fair of Hardwar, q town on the Ganges. at which, in 1891, eight hundred thousand to one million pilgrims assembled. In the opinion of many expe- risnced officials the most complete sanits- " arrangement would be powerless to prevent the spread of cholera If the fair was allowed to take place. The pilgrims | coming from cholsra-infeoted districts brought the infection with them. and two people died of undoubted cholera at Hardwar during the most crowded period. Owing, however, to the excellent and
 stringent sanitary precautions the infec- | ton did not spread. No more casss arose | in the town or camp, nor did the diseaee develop on the track of the dispersing pil- | erims. That was unquestionably one of | the most remarkable and brilliant achieve
 ments of sanitation in the whole history | of cholera.
 Not only in India. but also In Europe, had 1t been demonstrated that cholera was | . preventable diseass- In 1892 cholera broke out in Hamburg. The insanitary | conditions of its dock and port population and the polluted supply of drinking water

 And the same fact was iliustrsted ir

PREACHING AT HARVARD

PREACAING AT HARVARD. Harvard was originally an Indian school and 1t has always been more or less in-
 clined to whoop things up. Just now 1t Is whooping up religion. It ia announced that . Catholic priest will preach at the regular services in Appleton chapel on Sunday, April first. The preacher is to be Rev. Peter J. O'oallaghan, 6 graduate of Harvard in the class of 'SS, now associated
 with the Paulist fathers in New York city. Felix Adler, the apostle of ethical culture,
 will preach in Appleton chapel on the
 Sunday following that on which Rev. MT. O'Callsghsn will preach. The announce
 msnt that he will be followed by the irrev
 srend Robert G. Ingersoll Is not yet made,
 but 1t would not be very surprising.
 The announcements that have been made concerning the religious performances st Harvard have made some stir, and it was perhaps not entirely unforeseen that they
 would. But if Harvard can get any good
 out of the preaching of Rev. MT. O'Calla-
 ghan, Felix Adler, the Hindoo preacher Mozoomdsr, or even that of Robert G. Ingersoll, there should be no objection. She reeds all the religious and ethical i'm pulses she can possibly get, and she is OCT
 tainly making extraordinary efforts to get some. Success to her.

lSIT n BOYCOTT1

n -
 We hear that the yellow Sunday School scholars who were brought into condemna- tion last week by being caught playing fan.tan on Sunday evening were not in their accustomed seats in Sunday School yesterday. Perhaps they were c little ashamed because of the discovery of their inconsistency, and perhaps they were du- bious about the reception which would be given them by the dear teachers whose teaching they had trampled on and made ridiculous. If these were not the reasons that kept them at homo perhaps they have decided to boycott the Melican Sunday School in retaliation for the Melican boy ootting of fan-tsn. If this Is the state of affairs they can hope, for there are good people in this city who are excited to great earnestness by the peril of soul in yell low skin, and they will do their utmoat to get the boycott lifted. Indeed, we shouldn't be surprised to see compromise the terms of which will include a reasonable amount of Sunday fan tan and the consent of the yellow chaps to be at least partially saved.

Captain wyant, the proprietor OF Inc

warrant issued by Squire Atkins, oil Mont
gomery. Ibis information was wired the
Governor. The dispatch did not state the
ofYense charged, the parties by Whom the
writ was obtained or whether served by ths
sheriff.
Just etore noon Captain Wyant, under
strong guard started from Eagle to Fayette.
Captain Lyons commanded the troops oi
guard.
conspiracy OF a startling nature Is being
unearthed. man was arrested on MOTIFS
Creek with two Winchesters and peculiar
looking bomb in his possession. He says he
will turn States evidence and confess to
plot that Is being Matched to blow up all the
works along the river. He said so tnat re
knew where great deal Of dynamite Is being
stored for this purpose.
1t is said that the men had also planned
10 throw dynamite bombs among the SOL
diers who should accompany the sheriff to
Montgomery, and that the bombs had been
distributed.
The only thing that prevented the outrage
taken place and many lives sacrificed was
that the arrest OF Wyant was not made In the
way 1t had been planned The State Officers
are In possession Of facts and arrests will
follow.
Carver Brothers found a card on thel
store door at Edgewater, warning them tina
their property was to be burned and blowl
up.
There Is no dimunition OF excitement Il
the mining districts. A telegram was re
ceiyed stating that the road from Eagle I
Fayetteville was lined with armed men. Thi
shows that trouble would have been met
the militia had not gone with the sheriff an
his prisoners. Acting Mayor McNabb, wh
is charged with having impsded the sheri
in executing warrants, telegraphed an one
to the Governor OF 100 good citizens for
posse. His offer was not accepted.
