The Causes of Cancer

There are few diseases that aff1ict the
human family that are more to be dreaded
than those of a cancerous nature. The
cancer proper is most appalling foe to
life Whether it can be cured is and al
ways has been adebatable question. Cases
are cited where alleged marvellous cures
have been effected, but this does not to
any appreciable extent alter the facts in
the case that the cancer is practically in
durable once it gets any sort of Roadway
in the system The causes of this disease
have been SO imperfectly understood that
any effort at prevention was worse than
useless. A French scientist claims to have
discovered cancer germs in wood and that
artisans who work in wood are much more
subject to this disease, all things consid-
cred, than those who handle most other
materials. Having once started on this
line of research, he found cancer germs in
wood and vegetation of various kinds.
Elm and willow trees showed greater
proportion of these germs than other
woods. In high attitudes or where trees
are not common very few cancer germs
were found. From all of which it appears
chat we may be at last on the highroad to
some reliable and conclusive knowledge
upon subject which has baffled the skill
Of medical scientists for many years.

CAPT. MOSS JOKE.
Capture of a Would Be Blockade Run
ner,

Key West, July 12.-5 p. m-The Brit
ish sloop Wary, another would-be block
ace runner. was captured on the I'd inst
ny the United States auxiliary cruiser
Sc. Louis and arrived here today under
a prize crew consisting of Port Officer
4. j. Albrecht and two men.
Inc Wary is a % ton vessel and was
loaded with provisions OF miscellaneous
character including flour, rice, cheese,
lard, potatoes and beer.
The Wary under Capt. jeremiah Moss
and three men. all Jamaica negroes, was
bound from Kingston to Cape Cruz. 1t
was at first suspected that her British
flag was subterfuge to enable her to run
the blockade but later it developed that
her patent, dated April 10, 1897, was bona
fide and that she was boldly attempting
in the face of all risks to land her cargo
for the starving Spaniards in Cuba.
The St. Louis sent four or five shots
from her six Founders, but as the sloop
showed no indication of surrendering the
gig was lowered and half dozen M en-
pulled toward her peppering her sails
with shot from their small arms.
Capt. Moss afterward said that he
Thought all this was done in sport but
when he found himelf q prisoner of war
be became badly frightened and spent
the whole of his time between capture
and arrival here in praying and weeping.
Another schooner, the Wiokerson, was
captured by one of the converted yachts
at about the same place two days before
the Wary was taken.
