MEASURES TO BAR
THE YELLOW FEVER
FROM OLD MEXICO
SanDiegoQ Quarantine Officers
Will Detain Mazat1an
Steamers.

SAN DIEGO, Oct 26.-Dr. Mckay,
Quarantine officer at this port is taxing
steps to detain the Mexican steamer AL
bion, which is due to arrive from Mazat-
Ian on Novem Der 4. There is yellow fever
at Mazatlan and from all accounts it is
quite well intrenched, though the Mexi-
can officials there are trying TO keep the
matter quiet. Private advices were re-
ceived yesterday of the existence of the
disease and the fact that the General Gov
eminent had ordered strict quarantine.
A board of prominent physicians was or
dered to make an investigation OF he
maiady and to furnish suggestions for
keeping ii under control.
This evening DR.. Mckay received Off
cial confirmation OF this news in the
shape of a bulletin from the Surgeon
Generals office stating that nine deaths
had occurred a Mazatlan from Septe m Der
20 to October .. The following dispatch
to the State Department from Consul de
Gina, at Mazatlan, dated October IL. is
quoted in this bulletin: yellow fever not
spreading. Nine deaths in seven days.
Mexican officials denied the existence of
yellow fever until yesterday. Great sani-
tary precautions to keep fever from
spreading"
I'VE will be prepared 10 detain anv
vessel arriving from the south that has
not clear bill of heal:h," said DR.. Nc
Kay. Fortunately San Diego has a COM
plete fumigating and disinfecting ap-
paratus at the quarantine station. and no
fear need be entertained that the disease
will reach the city from the sea. The
period OF incubation in yellow fever is
five days. and as it takes from twelve to
twenty Gays to come up from Mazatlan
calling at the intermediate points. the
existence OF yellow fever germs on board
will be clearly settled. one way or the
other. by the time of the vessels arrival
At present the disease is not epidemic at
Mazatlan. though the conditions are said
to be favorable for its rapid spread. The
city was almost depopnlated some years

STRUCK AND SUNK
OFF THE COAST OF
HUMBOLDT COUNTY
Schooner E1norah Lost in
Collision With the Ship
Renee Rickmers.

SANTA BARBARA. Oct. 26.-The ar
enue cutter Corwin with the officers and
crew of the schooner Elnorah was the
first intimat ion that the latter vessel had
met with disaster The Etnorah left here on
October II in ballast Tor Eureka, and, ac-
cording to Captain Erickson, all went well
until 80 o'clock on the morning of the
22d. when at point fifty miles eff Cape
Mendocino the schooner was run down
and wrecked by the German ship Renee
Rickmers, bound for Dunkirk. When the
collision came nearly all the crew was on
deck and had no difficulty in jumping
from the vessel into the rigging of the
Renee Rick mers. The vessel is total
Ioss and the seamen lost all their cloth
ing. When last seen the Elnorah was fill
ing rapidly and keeling over; her mizzen-
mast was gone.
The crew remained aboard the German
ship until this morning, when, near Point
Conception the Corwin was sighted and
signaled 10 take the crew on board. This
was done, the CorwIn arriving at 8 80
O'Clock this afternoon with the ship
wrecked crew.
The schooner Elnorah was the property
of +. p. and s. Hooper of San Francisco
and carried the following crew: Captain
S. Erickson, Mate Henderson, Steward a.
Smonson and seamen Harry Kraft, L.
Larsen and 7. Nerem.
Cantain Erickson would say little re-
garding the accident, but as he mas de-
clared that proceedings would be insti-
iuted against the owners of the Renee
R!cKmers, it is taken for granted that he
blames the officers of that vessel fcr the
wrecking OF his own. One OF the seamer
volunteered the statement that ii was bad
seamanship on the part of the officers of
the German ship. Though it was very
dark and slightly foggy there was no
trouble in distinguishing objects at quite
distance. This seaman says that they
had out the usual lights, and it cannot be

A Bit OF Home Handiwork That Is Not

The illustration shows an attractive
design for standing table lamp.
For any woman who is handy with
light tools this lamp box will be an easy
nne to make, as IL is a very simple af-
fair, though seemingly elaborate.
This box for the lamp, strangely as it
may seem, is made of thin pieces %
board, a yard of bagging, some strips
of stove pipe iron and a few large-head-
ed nails, also a small quantity of paint.
First secure n box such as canned
goods are packed in and break il apart,
taking care not to split any of the thin
boards. Then purchase a lamp fount
having good central draft burner.
md Of the boards made a box the
square of which will be about an inch
larger than the diameter of the lamp
fount.
This box should be about 10 inches
high and eight inches sstcare: in the ton
cut a round hole sufficiently large TO adj
NIT the fount, but not so large that il
would fall through.
There viii be a metal rim or fange
around the top edge of the front to rest
on the edge of the hole In the bottom
of the box have a few large holes to al
low the necessary draft TO pass up to
the burner.
Cover the entire outside of the box
with bagging stretched tight and
tackled securely at the corners, or, if
preferable, / may be held in place with
good liquidglue painted on each side
of the box and against which the bag
ging may be firmly pressed. When the
glue is dry give the bagging several sue
cessive coats of paint of some desirable
color, such as sage green. old iron or
light salmon pink, and when it is thor
oughly dry bind the edges and cor
hers of the box with thin strips of
metal.
At a tinsmith's purchase few sheets
of thin stove pipe iron and cut it in
strips an inch and half in width. Ian
them on the corners of the box so three
quarters of an inch of metal will ar
pear on a side. With an awl and a
small hammer make holes in the metal

strips an inch apart, ard with oval
headed brass upholsterer's tacks, fas-
ten the strips to the box.
The torch and leaves forming the
wreaths can he cut from the thin sheet
ION with stout pair of shears and APP
piled to the box with iron carpet tacks
The stems TO the wreaths are pieces of
ron caught down with small staples.
At a hardware store purchase four
claw feet and fasten one under each
corner of the box; these win elevate 1T
from the table, and allow draft to
pass under the box and up through the
holes in the bottom; otherwise the
lamp would not burn in satisfactory
manner.
All the metal work should be given a
coat or two Of black pain. thinned with
Jurpentine and Japan dryer to finish
them nicely, and if more glossy
black is desired, they may be painted
with asphaltum varnish. a very good
black paint for metal can be made by
adding lamp black 10 brass lacquer.
and if too thick it may be thinned with
alcohol to the consistency of rich milk
and applied TO the metal with a soft
bristle brush
\ balloon shade made Of silk, paper
or silkoIinc will add the finishing touch
% the lamp, and one of this shape will
be found desirable, as it completely
shades the eyes from amy dn,sct rays
from the bright light Boston Globe.
