LIKE A CYCLONE.
The Bubonic Plague Moves in a
Straight Line.

New York June 22.-Robert p. Will
bur, an American Presbyterian mission
ary from Peona, India, has just arTiv-
ed in New York. In an interview he
said: THE plague is abating in India,
but the famine is at its height. The
plague has been as bad in PeOna in pro-
portion to its size. as in Bombay. where
IL 900 have died, but it is lessening. 1t
moves in line, like a cyclone, and was
travelling northwest when left in
March. None Of the people in a city
through which the plague passes viii
get it unless they are in the plague bele
or someone who has taken the malady
carries it across to another quarter.
1T originated no one knows how,in a
house in Bombay on a wide street. The
conditions of the building were far more
sanitary than thousands of others. A
Calcutta doctor who looked at it said:
Well if the plague can start in a house
like that, what viii it do when il
strikes Calcutta? :? One cause of the
spread of the disease among the natives
is said to be their practice of walking
barefOOted. Even insects transmit it.
A friend of mine entered a house where
a plague patient had died to get some
of the soil for analysis. The government
officials refused to let him have it. Re
ceiving permission to 'disinfect it, he
threw some sugar on it, and afterward
took up the sugar, together with some
ants, which had collected there, in his
handkerchief and carried them off.
Every one of those ants took a plague
micrObe with it.
THE famine is the great thing there
now. This morning / got letter say
ing that the people We're dying by hun
dreds. It is hard to know how to help
them, as they have no seed to SOW. even
if rains come, and their plowing oxen
have died. There is plenty of grain in
India, but the bunyahs, or merchants,
have it stored up in hidden pits, ana
won't sell it except at ruinous prices.
Some have thought that a cause Of
pla que was the putting on the market
of grain 20 years old. The government
made a great mistake in not beginning
their aid earlier.
THE trouble is with the native over
seers, who rob the people frightfulIy.
They are paid in proportion to the num-
ber of people they feed, and mix
earth in the grain to make
their supplies go longer way. know
of one man who got grain to distribute
free and sold it at auction. The people
are mere skeletons. living on roots and
grass and leaves and glad to get them.
Their troubles have bred queer ideas in
them. Some of them think Queen Vic
toria has sent the plague in revenge for
the daubing of her statue in Bombay.
Many of them refuse to go to the segre-
cation hospitals, because they think it
is the intention of the government to
put them out of the way when it gets
them there. In some cases they have
actually shut up their houses with dead
bodies in them and searching parties
have been organized to unearth the
corpses. The money relief offered hith-
erto for the distress in India is merely
a drop in the bucket"

grandfather, Hu, was a mandarin of in
f1uence. In the seventieth year of his
age he became a convert to the"Jesus
doctrine and with him his two sons,
Hu Po Mi and Hu Yong Mixing Eng's
father-both of whom for more than 80
years have been Methodist pastors and
presiding elders. Soon Grandmother
Hu and her daughters-in-law, all of the
bound-foot class, Influenced by convinc-
ing, even coercive, arguments, also re-
Iuctantly embraced the alien faith.
When quite child, King Eng was
placed in the girls boarding school at
Foochow, where, in time, she developed
into a thorough student, evincing
marked artistic ability-an inherited
talent. Furtive peeps into the dispen-
sary and wards of the adj djacent hospital,
however, determined effectually her vo-
cation to be, not art, but medicine.
With that end in view the little high
caste Celestial maid, now in her 18th
year, came across the seas, having met
and conquered bitter, determined oppo-
sition. She Immediately entered the
Ohio Wesleyan university. graduating
four years later master of arts. Three
years more of study, and the degree of
doctor of medicine was conferred by the
Woman's Medical college of Philadel-
phia, and, also, after a brief post-grad-
uate course, by the Philadelphia Poly
clinic. Then followed several months
of practical work in the Woman's hos
pita1 of Boston.
In December of 1890, DIR. Hu, fully
equipped for her life work, returned to
Foochow to assume charge of Liang-au
hospital A triumphant homecoming
it was. Mandarins and coolies, high and
low, met the ship, eager to pay their
respects.
Her most priced successes, however,
are not social, but professional. One in
stance is related of a coolie wheeling
his blind old mother a thousand miles
in a wheeIbarrow to consult the woman
doctor. A double cataract operation,
and the blind was made to see.
The only son of a wealthy mandarin
was dumb from his birth, and so of no
acoount-disqualifed to worship before
the names of his ancestors. The tied
tongue once relieved, and the dumb
