NOT BUBONIC PLAGUE.
Groundless Rumors Create Little
Stir at San Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov 26.-The
Board of Health is taking vigorous pre-
cautions to prevent the spread of a
mysterious disease in Chinatown. A
few days ago a Chinese died of dis
ease which is said to resemble the bu-
bonic plague. The matter was report
ed to the Board of Health, and China
town is being searched for further
cases. So far none have been found.
DR.. Rosneau, Quarantine officer at
this port and who is familiar with the
bubonic plague, has investigated the
case, and says that, in his opinion, it
is not bubonic plague. Other members
of the Board Of Health, however, are
of different opinion, and While unwil1-
ing to say that there is any serious
cause for alarm, insist that all neces
sary precautions shall be taken Ac-
cordingly, white people employing Chi
nese servants have been warned not to
allow their servants to enter China
town for the next few days Police
men have also been stationed in the
Chinese quarter to warn whites that
they had better keep OUT
AT the Health Office this morning it
was stated that the suspicious case had
turned out to be one of death from
nephutis, and that there were no rea-
sons for believing that the bubonic
plague had entered the city. An au-
topsy was held to-day on the body of
the dead Chinese, and DR.. Spencer, Of
fetal bacteriologist for the board. stat
ed to the Associated Press that there
were positively no traces of the dread
ed plague.
The residents of the Chinese quarter
are in an excited state over a series of
excited events that have recently oc-
CURED among them, and when a GER
tain Chinese died suddenly the report
was circulated in Chinatown that ne
had died Of bubonic plague. The, recent
drowning of thirteen Chinese on a river
steamer and the prevalence of a high
binder war in Chinatown, which has
resulted in several murders. nave In
clined the superstitious Chinese to
think they are being pursued by an evil
spirit, and they are ready to believe
anything.
To-day the police were withdrawn
from Chinatown. so Well satisfied is the
Board of Health that the plague ru-
mors are ground1ess.

the remains Of Harold Frederic, the
newspaper correspondent and author,
who dieH suddenly on Wednesday morn
ing at Henley Of heart disease. was adj
journed during the day until Wednes-

sensational. Mr.. Frederic's daughter,
Ruth, said her father did not believe in
doctors. She added that it was with
her consent. but under the influence Of
others. that Mrs. Miller. a Christian
Scientist. was summoned to attend him.
Doctors Brown and Freiberger. the
physicians who had been called to at
tend Mr.. Frederic by his friends. said
the deceased had suffered from rheu-
matte fever and that he was paralyzed
on one side. Both declared their belief
that with proper treatment the patient

1.-THE place was the strongest Spanish
outpost well fortified and valiantly de
Tended. The position was an excellent
one. San Juan hill is steep, and an ar
tillery battery was located on it. 1t
was also occupied by barracks and other
buildings. But the American troops
stormed the heights, and Spanish valor
had to yield to the bull dog tenacity and
courage of the Anglo-SaXon.-

but the enemy's works are in their hands
and they do not count the cost.

advance which began mt 3 p. m, has
been successful all along the line.
''After driving the enemy out of FL

From Which Dan
gerOuS Blood
Poison Re-
suits.

It matters not how blood
poison is acquired, whether by
inheritance or accident, it Is
a stubborn, obstinate disease
and one which the doctors find
themselves unable to success
fully treat. Whenever there Is
the slightest impnrity i'll the
blood, any accident which pro-
duces even a trivial bruise or
confusion of the flesh, is likely
to result seriously. Chronic
sores and ulcers often result
from such causes, and in many
cases they are so obstinate that
it takes years to get rid of them.
The doctors are unable to cure
such cases because potash and
mercury (the only remedies
which they ever prescribe for the
bloody tend to shut in the pois-
on and dry it up in the blood.
Here it lies dormant for q while,
only to break out in a more ag-
gravated form than before.
This treatment is continued
and the same conditions exist
for years, the old sore or ulcer
becoming a constant compan-
ion to those whom it afflicts.
Capt. j. H. McBrayer, the
well-known distiller of fine Ken
lucky WHISTLES, had just such
an experience, and he is so de-
lighted to find a cure after
many years of suffering that he
wants everybody to know just
how to get rid of these horrible
chronic sores. He now resides
at Lawrenceburg, Ky, and
writes:
Some years ago was shot in the
