THE NEW RECORD.

Americas admiration for the Campo

all lessened by the reflection that the
Campania is the product of British
brains. skill and capital, and that her
rich earnings 20 into British pockets.
We do not follow English example in
grudging praise to q successful rival.
and the latest triumph of English ship
building Is admired as heartily in New
York as in Liverpool.
The Campania is the fastest steamer
that crosses the ocean. and the fastest
steamer Is the safest. There Is a gen.
eral impression that the great speed
Of modern vessels Is dangerous. The
truth IL that In order to attain
this great speed the vessel must
be SO strongly constructed and so
perfectly designed as to reduce every
element of danger to minimum. The
only possible danger to such q vessel
as the Campania Is a collision, which
would be equally dangerous to any other
vessel; all other possibilities OF disaster
have been practically abolished.
The new time record Axes the future
Of the ocean ferry. These steamers are
built chiefly for tho use OF Americana
Now that It has been proved that the

take his dinner in New York on Friday
we shall expect TO see this made tn,

"DELTH-MARKED" CHILD.
Strange Daily Transformation in
Q Three Month Odds Body.
Tho Mother Brought to Court on
Charges OF Neglect.

Agent King, Of the Gerry Society.
brought a peculiar case to the atten-
ton OF Justice Ryan. in the Tombs Po-
lice Court, to-day. He had as prisoner
Tonetti Cihr. twenty-three years old. of
229 Mott street, whom he charged with
falling to provide proper treatment for
her aforementioned boy.
The child came to court with its
mother. and even the Oldest court OFF,
GERS turned their heads In disgust when
his features were exposed to view.
The child's face looked like that Of
dead person. 1t was emaciated and the
white skin lay In folds over the small
bones on the face. The body was also
covered with loose flesh.
According to the story Of the mother,
the child is what il known as death
marked" She says she witnessed a
death just previous to its birth. and that
Is the only way she can account for its
appearance. During the day there Is
much more life in the body than at
When the child was brought to court
this morning 1t was with difficulty that
It's breathing could be heard. BY 10
o'clock. however, 1t had livened up and
could cry so 1t could be heard at dis
lance of five feet.
Agent King first saw the child last
Wednesday morning. at its home. He
At first she denied there was a child
there, but In a few moments she went
over to corner of the room and
picked up the baby and held 1t up by the
legs. He ordered her to procure medi-
cal attention at once. This order was
not needed.
Justice Ryan discharged the woman,
with instructions to go at once and
procure a doctor. II the child dies. the
Judge informed her, she would be held
responsible.
Mrs. Cihr promised to do this. The
child's father. Pocillio, is a bootblack.
and a strong, ruddy man, while the
mother is a large and healthy-looking
woman.

Cooks and the Complexion.

Professional cooks have cures for bad
compilations that cure. which is more
than can be said for the professions |
complexion restorers. The point to be
borne In mind Is this: II the digestion Is
all right the complexion will be about
the same. People who have work to do
and duties to perform must eat. but In
thu round Of vacation and recreation 1t
Is capital idea to change the diet, or
better still, give the organs an occa-
sional day of. Instead of a feast make
a fast OF SUNDAY. Get back to the reg
ular diet by degrees-breakfast on bread
and milk, lunch on vegetable soup or a
soft egg, have milk and cinnamon at 4
O'Clock and dine on beef tea and black
toast, These are highly nutritious arti-
Giles and may be made very agreeable.
They will comfort the stomach and the
complexion will proclaim the fact.

In TINE OF SAFETY, PREPARE.

Europe again has an anxious eye on
points where cholera has made Its ap-
pearanee. Austria Ii disquieted. Some
Of her soldiers OF the Cracow garrison
have been FRUSTRATED by the disease at
Bielitz. In Holland. cases Of cholera are
reported in several cities and districts.
st. Petersburg and other Russian places
are experiencing severe attacks from the
plague. Emperor William has counter
manded the orders for army manoeuvres
In East Prussia, owing to the threaten
ings OF cholera. And finally, q fatal case
OF the dread disease has been reported
at Battersea, a part OF London.
All this Is OF vital interest to the
United States. 1t Ii now late In the
Summer. and. as not even n suspicious
case has thus far made Its appearance
on this side. It IL possible, and also prob
abe. that we shall escape a visitation
for this season. Nevertheless. the watch
at all points where the plague might
force Its entrance Is TO be kept up vigil
lantly. And the country must be on
guard not alone for the balance of this
season, but just as sharply for next
Summer. 1t Is not too early to impress
the Importance Of having all precaution-
airy measures In full force when the
coming Winter closes.
Cholera germs have a great capacity
In the way Of lying dormant during the
cold months and springing into full life
with the coming OF warmer weather.
1t will be the duty Of the quarantine and
sanitary authorities Of the country. at
all ports of entry. to keep a sharp eye
on the European danger points now and
upon what comes from them next
Spring and Summer.

TOLEDO. o., Aug. 1S.-Edward Points,
the colored man who created a sensation
some months ago by a sudden change
in his complexion. is now in precari-
Gus condition. According to the state
ment made by Points, he has been TAX
ing for a long time a preparation put
up by some patent medicine house for
rheumatism.
His skin commenced turning white in
spots and the cuticle on several portions
of his body was entirely removed. He
was removed to the County Infirmary,
and the attending surgeon stated that
the discoloration was due entirely to the
medicine he had taken. Just what the
drug Is composed of no one knows.
Points's color has now changed from
white to deep yellow. and there Is
