vigorous Quarantine Regulations to Be
Enforced.

Enforced.
AUSTIN, Tex, Sept, 6.-State Health
Officer Swearington today issued an IRON
clad quarantine against Ocean Springs,
Miss, and all other points now affected
or likely to be affected by yellow fever.
Reports from the Gulf coast are to the
effect that the Inhabitants are badly
frightened, and some are talking of re-
organizing their shotgun quarantine
force which patrolled the Gulf shore
some twelve years ago to keep out all
persons, and thereby prevent the
disease from entering the state.

NEW RULES OF. THE SEA.

b: To-day. the new rules of: the road form
+ ulated by: the great M aritime powers will
go: into operation: on all the high seas.
These international rules de fine more
clearly than has ever been done before
Ethe precautions: which must be scrupu-
lousy observed to: prevent disaster, and
enforce lmore accurate and scientific
methods of safeguarding life and property
at sea-. The new. rules will require more
mental effort and watchiulness than the
old, and there will be: less liability Of
collisions. -, -
nregard to the screening OF sideIights
the new rules provide that screens shall
now, as heretofore, be fixed so as to pre-
vent the:red and green lights from being
visible across the bow of the ship. The
helm signals: proposed at the Interha-
tional Washington Marine Conference in
1889: are stained and incorporated in the
new regulations. !:
The new fog signals are i'm portant, and
it is oplned that they viii serve to reduce
considerably the mum Der of collisions.
While the new rules may need amending
in some instances they are generally ad-
mitted to be decided improvement over
former rules and the fact that they are in
force will give a feeling OF better security
to those who do business on the Deep and
be a fresh encouragement to commerce
between the nations. -. !. ..::: ::
1t should be particularly observed. that
the. new rules are applicable not only ON
the. open ocean, but also I'm all waters.

going vessels except. in: waters where

"a. JOINT LECTURE.

The lecture platform is about to receive
two notable acquisitions from the profess
sional world in the persons of those dis
tinguished exponents of the Marquis Of
Queensberry's favorite science-Mr. John
Lawrence Sullivan, late Of Boston, and
Mr.. Robert Fitzsim m orls, recently of Car.
son.. These gentlemen will deliver what
may be termed a jointlecture next Mon
day evening in New York. Their theme
will be "The Manly Art OF Self-defense,'
accom- panied, it is: presumed, by num-
Der of practical demonstrations of the
salient points. s. ..|
The reform wave seems TO. have en-
gulfed New York com ple.ely.= This is. "a
:consumm alton devoutly to be. wished,
anyhow: The fstic. de bate between Mr.
Peter Maher and Mr.. Thomas Sharkey !

ungentie, even sanguinary features, that
the police of the Eastern metropolis are
d determined to prevent all further discus.
sions*of that character which threaten
likewise to culminate in reckless displays
OF temper. A joint: lecture. however, is
much different. Here there is no proba-:
bility of any disregard OF the rules of
strict oecorum. =:
1t were difficult to find two other gen:
tlemen so thoroughly well versed in the
subject above mentioned as Messrs. SuIli.
van and Fitzsimmons. The police of
New York are evidently cultured as we'll
as discreet. The days of vulgar slogging
and brutal Knockout blows have passed
away back in New York. When Mr.. Fitz-
sim mons turns to the people and an
nounces that he will proceed to enlight
them on the scheme of the solar-plexus
blow and to exemplify its effects on SUBJ
iect the police will doubtless smile ap-
provlngly when the. subject is carried out
to hospital on shutter. This would be
simply an illustration. II John L. should
furnish an example of how he came to be
dubbed champion long years ago and in
cidentally drive his colecturer, Robert,
through the ropes, the police would regard
it in the same light as they would a

CARELESS CAMPERS.

The extensive fire which occurred Tues.
day afternoon in the San Joaquin foot
hills, near Burson, and which is believed
to have been started through the careless
ness of campers, should be a warning to
all parties who may be enjoying the sum-
mer slowly traversing picturesque re-
gions. sleeping in tents and cooking in
the open air, to take the trouble always
to extinguish the fire before departing
from a locality. The grass and the woods
are now very dry, and any lack of precau.
ton in regard to camp6res may result in
most serious consequence ces.
The town of Burson was saved from de-
struction only by desperate efforts, and
the fire in question burned the hills. bare
of their chaparral and greasewood for a
distance of many miles. A number of
buildings were consumed, together: with
an immense amount OF feed and pastur-
age. 1t is little enough, in return. for the
