Paducah, KY, Feb. 20. ~. What for
want Of better name is christened the
led plague has broken out with great
violence in Galloway county. Over 100
patients are now suffering. Many
deaths have already occurred, and more

ton makes its appearance on the face,
and soon extends over the whole body.
The joints become stiff, and in most
Instances the limbs swell SO that the
afflicted ones cannot move. Physicians
are unable to correctly diagnose the
queer malady, or treat it successfully.

An Americans Fate i'm Cuba.

Havana, Feb. 20.-Dr. Richard Ruiz,
naturalized American citizen, was
found dead in his cell in the Guanabacoa
Jail Wednesday afternoon at four
o'clock. There is little doubt that he
was beaten to death by his jailers at
Fondaviela's orders. DIR. Ruiz, who
studied and practiced dentistry in
Philadelphia for many years, was ar
rested some ten days ago and charged
with having helped Arrangements band
to derail a train several weeks ago,
when two Spanish officers were cap
tured. The charge was of the fimsiest
character, as everyone in Guanabacoa
knew that Ruiz attended strictly to
his business and took no interest in
political or revolutionary movements.

A SAD FATE.
Family Of EIGHT at Cleveland, o.,
Frightfully Burned
Attempt to Light Kitchen Fire with
Gasoline Results In Fatal In
juries to Five Members Of
tho Household. HE 49, s.

Cleveland, O., Feb. 20.-The family Of
Jacob Ciclecz, of 663 Canal street, was
almost completely wiped out of exist
erce by frightful holocaust of flames.
Eight people were burned in the fire.
OF these, it is thought, five will die.
The injured ones are at the Cleveland
general hospital. ~sa -
Jacob Ciclecz, his wife and three chill
dren, aged three, two and one years,
were in bed. John Ciclecz, brother of
Jacob, arose about five o'clock to light
the fire. He took what he thought was
the kerosene can. Instead he got hold
OF the gasoline can. He poured the
gasoline on the kindling and touched a
match to the stuff. In an instant there
was an explosion. John Ciclecz was
hurled to the end of the room, his cloth
ing on fire. The fire communicated
to the feather bed in which were Mrs.
Jacob Ciclecz, the three children and
another woman. Jacob Ciclecz was
also in the same room at the time of the
explosion. With their clothing all
ablaze, the father, mother and the other
woman seized the three children and
ran out into the yard. Passing work.
men rushed to the rescue. They took
off their coats and heroically did all
they could to extinguish the flames
that were consuming the people. Mean
while Mike Gumbert, who lives at $50
Canal street, and his family put out the
flames in the house.
John Ciclecz' suffering at the hospi-
tai was terrible. The skin of his entire
body dropped off in patches. The finger
nails and flesh fell from his hands. His
eyelashes were gone and his hair was
singed to the scalp. His face was little
more than a mass of roasted skin and
flesh. Mrs. Ciclecz was frightfully
burned. The oldest child, Victoria,
was burned from head to foot. joseph
Jerga, boarder, and Albert Jerno, the
father of Mrs. Ciclecz, were also badly
burned.
