ERU QUEER LAKES.

Puma CPeru) Cor. Chicago Record:
From Crucero Alto. the highest town IN
the world, the Southern railroad OF Peru
drops into the Lagunillas, or lake region
of the Cordilleras, where. l4'zoo leet
above the sea, is a group of large lakes
of very cold. pure water. without inlet
or outlet, They receive the drainage OF
the surrounding hills and conceal 1t
somewhere, but there is no visible means
of it's escape. A fringe of ice forms
around the edges of the lakes every night
the year round, yet they contain an ex-
cellent variety of fish called the pejerray,
which is caught near the shore and SOLO
at Puma and in other n~eighborlng towns:
The two largest lakes, Saracocha AN
C~achipascana. with several smaller ones
in the same neighborhood, are owned by
the family of Mr.. Romano of Arequipa,
! who has just been elected president OF
Peru. He owns immense tracts OF land
in this locality. with thousands of sheep,
cattle, llamas, alpacas and Vlcunas, when
are herded upon it.
A curious phenomena about the lakes
is that they keep at the same level all
the time, regardless of the dry n rainy
! seasons. No amour: of rain will make
any difference with their depth, which,
however, in the center is unknown. n
this adds to the awe and mystery with
which they are regarded by the Indians.
There are no boats upon the lakes except
a few small balsas, or RATS. made OF
bundles of straw. which keep very close
to the shore, for fear of being a wn into
whirlpools tina are said to exist in the
center. There is some foundation for this
fear, for only two or three years ago a
balsa containing five men disappeared in
the darkness, and was never heard of
again. OF course it nay have tipped over
and it's occupants have been paralyzed
by the cold water in an ordinary way,
but their bodies We're never recovered
nor did the balsa eVer float to shore,
Therefore the people think the whole
party was lured into a maelstrom ond
swallowed up by the mysterious waters

Popo. which receives the waters of Lake

WALC0TT DIED
THIS MORNING
Victim of the Smallpox Sue
cumbed.
WAS OLD AND FEEBLE
A Suspect Guaranteed This Morning
council MAY Act
Tonight.
WAS OLD AND FEEBLE

William d.. Walcott. the first smallpox
victim. died at the pest house at an early
hour this morning. The intelligence of
his death was conveyed to the county
authorities by telephone by DR.. Sulli-
van, the contract physician who mas
charge of the pest house. Arrangements
are being made this afternoon for the m
terment of Walcott's remains. 1t being
the desire of the health officers that
burial take place as speedily as possible.
Walcott was about 50 years of age n
unmarried. 1t is probable that his ad-
vanced age had much to do with his de-
mise.
What may be the second case was re-
ported to Health Officer Alexander his
morning. The victim is a Mrs. Trembly.
a professional nurse. whose home is at
No. o27 South Montana street. She has
been employed in the family OF Doc
Beal at German gulch, and for several
days complained of not feeling we'll. Yes
! terday she was brought to the city and
taken to her home. arriving there about
$50 last night. Two ladies from Mr..
Beal's household accompanied her to the
city. A physician was mmoned about
1890 last night. From the symptoms he
took it to be a mild case OF smallpox in
its earlier stages. The symptoms, he
said, were not we'll defined. and he was
not absolutely sure Of his diagnosis. He
instructed the family to allow no one to
go in or out Of the place and at once
notified DR.. Alexander.
Drs. Alexander and Leavitt visited Mrs.
/ Trembly this morning. They noticed an
| pyl1ptinO that MIGHT he Snoai1nny h,1t the
woman insisted that the eruption was
chronic. and had appeared frequently in
the past. They We're undecided as to
whether or not the case was smallpox,
but to be on the safe side ordered the
house under quarantine.
DR.. Haviland informed a reporter of the
Inter Mountain this morning that he had
thoroughly disinfeted his premises and
person twice since his contact with Wal
colt and that it was absolutely impossi-
Bile for him to be carrying the germs of
disease in his clothing.
The city council will meet tonight in
regular session. At that meeting it is
probable the council will enact legislation
of a precautionary nature 1t is possible
that a law providing for compulsory vac
clnatlon will be enacted
The cost of caring for SMALLPOX pa
tients is no small item. DR.. Sullivan,
the contract physician, will be paid at
the rate of $500 per month. and immune
nurses receive $3.50 per month. In add
ton to this there are numerous other ex.
penses for supplies, and for every house
that comes under quarantine two patrol.
men, who receive 800 per month each
must be employed. The commissioner
could not find a teamster who was willing
to convey the sick to the pest house 70,
love nor money, and were compelled tc
purchase a wagon, for which they pail
$50 for this urpose A house was hireG
at the rate OF 81 per day. OF the tota
cost the city board of health has pledged
the city to stand $400 per month.

NUBAR PACHA.

To say that Nubar was far the best
statesman whom the east has produced
in our time would not necessarily be
paying him a compliment. 1t would be
contrasting him with nobodles. The
east does not produce statesmen in our
sense Of the name. 1t produces men
great in a certain way, such as
Mehemet Ali, with his barbaric passion
for justice, and his barbaric ways of
gratifying it, as by trouncing up I'M
just judges and extortionate governors
and bastinadoing them there and then,
as if that could do any permanent good.
Nubar was not merely the, best of
Oriental statesmen. He would have
been distinguished anywhere, and in the
most cultivated society no less than in
the political arena. Never was there
kindlier, more genial wittier, more
fascinating host than Nubar. Now
that he is gone Cairo will not seem the
same place to those who knew it in
Nubar's time. The visitor who knew
Egypt and it's foremost statesman in
the eighties, will perhaps pause before
a certain well known house, about half
way between Shepherds and the rail-
way StdIlOll, anu recall memories OF us
former occupant. He will picture Nu-
bar sitting in his corner seat by the
window overlooking the pathway lead
ing from the big gate in the high wall,
which separates the house from the
street, and listen in ina ination to one
Of the very best takers east or west of
Brindisi. An artist in talk though he
was, Nubar never talked for tallSing's
sake merely. He was not an art for
arts sake man. There was solid, seri-
Gus stuff in his talk; but with mex
haustible wit, and mother wit and hui
NOR. On one of my visits to Nubar
soon after the occupation our discourse
drifted into the somewhat abstract top
ic of self-government for Egypt.
Just at this time Lord Dufferin was
deep in his plans for administrative re-
construction. Perhaps he was polishing
off that famous Memnon sentence,
whereat he may have smiled since,
though l can imagine his generous emo
tional glow in the act of composition.

Nyam- Nyams have self-government.
Yes, they are cannibals in the South
ern Soudan. Well, when the household
slaves carries plump baby into his
Nyam- Nyam Majesty's presence for
His Majesty's breakfast, that's part of
government among the Nyam-
Nyams" But the illustration, Nubar's
dumb show, was the thing. Nubar got
up from his corner. And with that
light, elastic step Of his and with his
fez tilted slightly on one side in it's
habitual fashion, Nubar initiated the
imaginary slave dangling the plump
baby in his arms before the Nyam-
Nyam monarch. "And now, my dear"
said Nubar, as he sat down, his eyes
twingling Tets have another coffee"
Often, when Nubar spoke English, he
followed the French idiom; hence my
dear for mon cher" And it was al
ways Lets have another coffee" my
dear don't go away yet. Stop and
let's have another coffee" In his sense
Of fun, and in his Indifference to cere-
monialism Nubar had in him nothing
of the Oriental. I have often watched
the expression Of good-natured, patient
boredom on his face while procession
Of native visitors made elaborate obei-
sance before him, each bowling down,
with his forehead almost touching the
carpet and with open palm scooping up
the imaginary dust Of humility.
Another trait which distinguished
Nubal from the traditional Oriental
was his humanity which had in it moth
ing Of capricious impulse, but was in
structive, as in the highest western
type. Nubars humanity revealed it.
self in a striking manner during the
cholera outbreak Of 1865, when he per-
sonally attended to the needs of the
sufferers, while the Khedive, Ismail,
fled from the pestilence. 1t must not
be understood from what l have said
about his comical illustration of differ
ences in self-government that Nubar
was lacking in the liberal spirit. A lib
eral he was, every inch of him. But not
in the discriminating temper Of GER
tain enthusiasts whose so-called Liber-
alism would do more harm than good.
What was Nubar's work in Egypt but
Liberalism of the highest and finest Or
der?
There could have been no more elo-
uuent testimony to the European APP
probation of Nubar than the SUCCESS
ton made by many leaders of opinion
in England and on the Continent dur
ing the height Of the Armenian crisis,
that he should be intrusted with the
task of mediation between his native
Armenia and her oppressor, and of de-
vising for her some form of autonomous
government under European guaran-
tees. Nubar could have done it if any
man could. But there were obstacles
which it were profitless now to dis
cuss.
To know Nubar was to love him.
Those of us who were privileged with
his acquaintance will not see his like
again, Englishmen should ever hold
his memory in high regard, for he died.
as he had lived, a firm believer in the
power of their race; while
all men upon whom the name of Egypt
exercises it's peculiar spell will honor
the statesman who did more than any
other to rescue her from her ancient
servitude.-From The London News.
