What It is and How 1t Affects Vic
The Encyclopedia Britannica de-
scribes the bubonic plague or black
plague as q specific febrile disease
transmissible from the sick to healthy
persons accompanied usually by buboes
and sometimes by carbuncles. There
are two chiefs forms: ~ Mild plague,
in which the special symptoms are &C.
eompanied by little fever or general
disturbance. and (2) ordinary epidemic
or severe plague, In which the general
disturbance 10 very severe. In the MI
nor form of the disease spontaneous
swellings OF the glands occur, chiefly In
groins and armpits, but also In neck
and other parts, which either undergo
resolution or suppurate. There Is q
certain amount of fever; the tempera-
ture is rarely high but has been known
to be 104 degree Fahrenheit. The dur
alton Of the disease is ten to twenty
days usually, but may be eight weeks.

THE PACHT RACES.

There is a suspicion in New York
that the Columbia did not defeat the
Defender, after all, in the race Thurs
day for the cup offered by the New
York Yacht club. That the Columbia
finished first, no one questions; but on
the matter of time allowance the result
Of the race depends. The new boat
gained three minutes and thirty-five
seconds over the old cup defender. but
being a much larger craft she is OBJ
liged TO allow a handicap. Official
measurements. upon which time allow
ance is computed, have not been made.
and will not be for some weeks to
come, though it is presumable that the
actual measurements of both boats are
known by their owners, and, as they
refuse to state which boat won the
cup, and members of the New York
Yacht club who are on the inside also
withhold the information, it has caused
a suspicion that the old cup defender
was superior to the Columbia in the
race Thursday. The New York World
holds that the Columbia must have al
lowed the Defender over three minutes.
and, as she gained only three minutes
and thirty-f1ve seconds, the margin of
superiority-if there was any in that
race-must have been. exceedingly
small Yachtsmen were greatly inter-
ested In the race yesterday, expecting
that it would give them better idea
Of the relative merits Of the yachts
than they obtained from the race
Thursday, which was disappointing in
many respects. This week the Sham
rock will probably be tried out in Eng
fish waters. and yachtsmen can form
something of an idea of what the Co.
lumbia must do to retain the cup.
There is this much to be said of the
Defender as a competitor Of the Column
bia. The yacht is undoubtedly con-
slderably faster than when she sailed
In the Americas cup races several
years ago.
The race yesterday seems to have
been quite satisfactory to the yacht
ing sharps, and demonstrated to some
Of them at least, that the Columbia,
after she is toned up and properly
rugged, can beat the Defender by five
minute over a 9O-mile course, which
1t is held she must do to make her rea-
sonably sure Of winning in the cun
races.
There seems to be wide divergence
Of opinion between those who report
yachting events, over the time allow
ance. While the New York World main
tains that the Columbia must give the
Defender three minutes at least, the
Associated Press makes the allowance
only two minutes

1t is curious and complicated ques-
ton of the electoral franchise that has
caused the recent political turbulence
in Belgium. Under laws that have been
in force for from four to six years. ey-
cry male citizen 25 years of age or old
er is entitled to one vote; every married
man or widower over. IS years of age is
allowed two votes, while real estate
holders, professional men and posses .
sors Of diplomas of higher instruction
have three each. There are, however.
numerous restrictions to introduce
ether Inequalities into the electorate.
Married men must pay certain annual
rental in order to vote, and there are
conditions touching military service,
tax payments and municipal matters
that result in DISTINGUISHING consid-
cradle portion of the population. This
singular travesty of proportional repre-
ssentation has finally brought on some
thing like a revolt, and variety Of
conflicting political interests are en-
gagged in the melee. Socialists, clerl-
Gals. morarchists and Industrial repre-
sentatives are all clawing one another
and the confusion seems hopeless.
