on the other hand, are generally gifted
with remarkably keen sight, and few
tribes are more noteworthy in this re-
spect than the African bushmen. whose
eyes are veritable telescopes. This
power is no doubt n wise provision OF
nature. for bushmen are small race,
and IL they were not able to see dan
ger a long way off they would be ex-
terminated by their various enemies,
whether savages of other tribes or wild
beasts. A traveller in South Africa
relates that while walking one day in

NO NEW CASES
OF YELLOW FEVER
One Death Yesterday at
Hampton.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-Oficial re-
ports to the Marine Hospital Service
from the Soldiers Home at Hampton
show that the yellow fever situation
there continues favorable. Surgeon
White reports to DR. Wyman that there
is nothing suspicious in the town of
Hampton.
There were no new cases and only
one death at the home to-day, accord
ing to a report DR.. Vickery, the surgeon
at the institution, sent to the Surgeon
General tonight Dr. Vickery ex-
pressed the opinion that the immune
help on their way there should be suf-
ficient, as the epidemic seems to be
checked. The Gordon around the home
and the immediate adjoining village of
Phoebus, Surgeon White says, is as
tight as he ever saw it at any place
The Postofice Department reports
that the mails are now being dis
patched into the quarantined points on
the Virginia peninsula twice daily, and
that mail from there is being thor
oughly fumigated.
NEWPORT NEWS. Aug. NO new
cases and two deaths is the situation
at the Soldiers Home to-day. Governor
Woodfin claims that one Of the deaths
was due to consumption and not to yell
low fever.
SEATTLE, Aug. 4-William Thomas
of Columbia City. Wash, who, it was
stated in yesterdays dispatches was
thought by Marine Hospital officials at
Hampton to have introduced yellow
fever in the Soldiers Home there, said
to-day that there was no foundation
for the statement.
He was an inmate of the home for a
while as represented, but was not sick
while there, neither has he had any
symptoms of yellow or other kind of
fever since returning from Santiago.
He further said that the transport on
which he returned had no fever cases
aboard. Mr.. Thomas served as a
packer at Santiago.

GRAND JURY MAY BE
CONVENED AT ONCE
Marin Officials Investigating the Use
of Money in THE Case of
HARVEY.

SAN RAFAEL, Aug. 4-The publication
of Mrs. J. P Roberts story in regard to
the alleged bribing of jurors at the trial
of Joseph Harvey on a charge of conduct
ing a banking game in his poolroom at
Sausalito has produced CONSERVATION
among gambling cohorts. This uneasiness
was increased to-day when 1T was learned
that if Sheriff Taylor and District Attor-
ney McIsaac succeeded in obtaining
enough evidence to indict the principals
to the affair Judge Angellotu will not wait
until the Grand Jury holds its regular
session next October but will call that
body together at once.
The part ascribed to r. M. Dome in the
affair is the only material element of Mrs.
Roberts tale discredited 1t is not be-
ueved the woman is miSrepresenting the
facts as stated to her, but that her huS-
band erred either Intentionally or other
wise Dome is a prominent merchant of
the community and has always enjoyed
an excellent reputation for honesty and
integrity. The interview published in
morning paper in which he is said to have
admitted that Roberts approached him on
the "swag' is vigorously denied by Dome.
81 told the representative of this paper
what [ have told the Others" said Dome
to-day. Il explained to him that l did
not know whether or not money had been
expended in securing an acquittal, but
that If it was l had nothing to do with it.
1 said Furthermore that l had never seen
Roberts since the jury acquitted Harvey
to talk with him alone. Why should
have been misrepresented in this matter
| am at a loss to explain.
