stamped out, and cease to be a public
menace. Grounds for this were found in
the actually diminished death-rate among
cholera patients, and in the increase Of pro-
fessional knowledge Of the disease and
consequent increase of ability to deal with
it, Unfortunately, however, that belief
has not been justified by events. On the
contrary, the plague has during the last
month or two shown extraordinary powers
of recrudescence and great increase Of
virulence, and has spread more widely
throughout the Continent than in either
Of the two preceding years. There is,
therefore, among physicians and sanitari-
ans in all European countries a feeling of
intense anxiety; If not, in some degree, of
Encouragement at the apparent failure OF
their efforts to suppress the epidemic.

tonic Ezeta and his four fellow refugees
from San Salvador were brought into the
United States district court for examina-
tion on extradition. Judge Beatty sat
with Judge Morrow. Counsel for the de-
fense at once raised the question of the
courts jurisdiction. Judge Morrow de-
clared that for the purpose of the present
proceeding the men were fully within its
jurisdiction. The taking of testimony on
behalf of the government of San Salvador
was then ordered to proceed. Nearly all
the afternoon was consumed in wrangling
over a deposition In which Ezeta and
Juan Cienfuegoes are charged with the
murder of Thomas Canas, teamster.

AN ALsATlAN LEGEND.


A Peasant of AIsace Explains Peculiarly
to Prussian Oficer.
There Is an aneodoto related in French
provincial paper which, if true, reflects
credit on the smnrtness of the Alsatian
peasants, or, at all events, of the particu-
lar one whose neat reply to Prussian in
terlocutor is recorded therein It appears
that in the church of Wintzenheim, vii
lagu In Alsaco, there is to be seen an enor-
nous silver mouse suspended near the al
tar Recently the church was visited by a
Prussian officer who, puzzled to under
stand the signincation attached to the
mouse, sought an explanation from vii
lager present in the building. The latter
explained the legend thus:
More than century ago the whole of
the countryside was ovorrun with mice
which invaded the houses, the fields, even
the beds of the inhabitants, who were un-
able to sleep, owing to the attacks made
upon them by these unweloome intrudors.
Little children were especially tormented,
and the village schoolmaster, panied at
seeing numbers Of dis1gured faces round
him, had what according TO the legend,
turned out to bo a happy inspiration. He
called to mind the Israelites, the serpents
whose bites were deadly and the means tax
en- by Moses to deliver them from the rep
tiles Reaecting on this, he conceived the
idea of endeavoring to rid the locality OF
the plague of mice by casting huge
mouse in silver the sum required for the
purpose being raised by taxing the In
habitants according to their means When
a sufficient sum of money had been OBJ.
tained, the project being carried out, the
silver mouse was suspended to the wall OF
the church, and from that day not a mouse
was to be met with In field or house
The Prussian officer, when the peasant
| concluded, indulgod in a hearty laugh at
the expense of the simple villager and In
| quired with amazement whether it was
possible that in the present enlightened
age there were to be found people to be
lievo implicitly in such superstitious non
sense. "Ah, sir " retorted his companion
1--WE are far from believing implicitly il
the story, for If we thought such a miracle
had really taken place we should long
before now have given our last sou to MAKE
q German in gold and should have hunl
him up in the church in order to get rid o
all tho rest"

AN EDIcr was recently p romulgated by
the Vatican conveying to the priests the
PontiH's permission to make use of the
bicycle in the performance of their parish
duties. In consequence of this several Of
the Italian bishops have issued pastoral
letters recommending the clergy Of their
dioceses to learn to ride with a view to
their being able 20 convey more speedily
than by other means spiritual consolation
and assistance to the sick and dying.

Fra1er,s Alleged murders Released.

SEDAN, Kan, Sept. .. The six men
who were arrested two weeks ago, charged
with completely in the famous murder in
1890 of John G. Frazer, a heavy stock
dealer, have been set at liberty. Their ar
rest caused a sensation at the time as the
men were all prominent citizens of this
and surrounding counties. John New, a
convict now serving term in the state
penitentiary was to have been the prose-
cution's strongest witness, but at the last
moment he refused to appear, and the
cases against the six men were dismissed.
