SMALLPOX ON BOARD
The Steamer Doric Runs Up Yellow
Flag

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2s.-The o. and
o. steamship Doris arrived in port today,
one day ahead of schedule time, flying the
yellow flag.
Immediately upon the appearance of the
vessel it was boarded by United States
quarantine officer DR.. Rosenau, who or
dered the ship to proceed to the quarantine
station at Angel island. The passengers
have all been transferred to the station as
well. and will be held there for number of
days.
Two days ago one Of the Chinese passen-
gers died. The ships physician was not
able fully to determine. according to his
report, whether the death of the Mongol
had been due to smallpox or not. However,
he inclined to the belief that it was. In
order to be on the safe side. the vessel and
passengers will be held in strict quaran-
tine and thoroughly fumigated. AS the
cabin passengers are always carefully
segregated from those in the steerage there
is no danger that any will contract the dis.

GOOD AMERICANS ALL

A great deal has been said Of late
years about the United States navy be-
ing filled with foreigners, whose loyalty
to the flag in case of war might we'll be
the subject of suspicion. The facts. as
brought out by the Maine disaster. do
not bear out this assumption.
There were 25S lives lost by the Maine
GERS. OF those killed, 1877 were born in
the United States, distributed among
twenty-four states, as follows: Mary
land, s; New York, 2S; Pennsyl-
vania, 13; Ohio, 4; Virginia, Is; Illinois,
8; New Jersey, 10; Rhode Island, s.;
Connecticut, 4; North Carolina, 8; Mich
igan, 2; Wisconsin, 8; California, 8; South
Carolina, 1; Indiana, L; Missouri, /; Ken
Iowa, 2; Alabama, /: Texas, 1; Wash
ington, D. c., L; Nebraska, 1.
Sixty-one, or only % per cent Of those
lost were of foreign birth, as follows:
Scotland. 2; Japan, 4; Canada, s; Ire
land, Is; England, 2; Denmark, 5; Greece,
2; France, /; Norway, A; Sweden, Z;
Germany. s; Malta, 1; Finland, 2; Cuba,
1; Belgium, 1; Roumania, 1.
1t does not follow that because these
men were born foreigners they would be
unfaithful to the country of their adop-
ton. Take the fifteen Irishmens for in
stance; it would be impossible to con-
ceive Of their taking up arms against
the United States. And every one of these
brave boys went down to death with

70 Make All Kinds of Money in
Cuba.

Says a Havana merchant visiting
in the United States:
Scuba is an out-and-out agricultu-
raj country, and American enterprises
can only succeed when recognizing
the fact. think, however, that one
of the first things needed throughout
Cuba will be electric railroads. After
this the next important item of ship
ment should be lnmber and other
building materials. Real estate in
Havana is selling at next to nothing.
1t has not been possible to collect
mortgages or get judgment against
any property during the last year.
Building operations with q strong
Government, therefore, should, l
think, have considerable boom.
should also imagine that a number of
large sugar refneries in Cuba would
be profitable investment. In addi-
tion public schools, roads and road
implements and mining machinery
are needed. There are many oppor-
tunities, I think, for large hotels"

Interesting Decision.

Two cases that the people were
much interested in were tried in the
County Court here Tuesday. VIM.
McCray, of Bourbon county, and JAG
oh f. Trumbo, of Montgomery coun-
ty, were brought before the Court by
the County Attorney on charge that
they had violated the law. They
both own land in this county and had
it assessed bv their agents and also
paid the taxes regularly. 1t seems
that there is law requiring non-resi-
dents to file each year with the County
Clerk the number of acres they own
and a statement as to whose property
it adjoins. 1t is presumed that the
intention of tie law is to protect
counties from being imposed upon by
nonresident owners OF mineral and
timber lands in the mountain coun-
ties. But in this case the owners gave
in their lands to the Assessor regular
ly and paid their taxes, and did not
try to defraud any one. Judge Ram

The United States authorities have

ders to that effect to the lock keepers
and other officials on the Kentucky
river. Hereafter If dynamiters, seiners
or other violators of the fish law are
caught they will be harnessed up be-
fore the United States Court, which is
terror to lawbreakers. So far the

the fish law
We are glad to see this move on the
part of the United States authorities.
In no State in the Union are game
and fish laws more shamefully neg
lected than in Kentucky. If our pres
ent laws were half way enforced
