A CANCER MYSTERY.
Physicians Unable to Discover the
Cnuse or Cure OF the
... Disease.

In the daily press we find full ac-
counts of another discovery of the can
GER bacillus. the investigator in this in
stance being DR.. Bra, of Paris, says the
Medical Review of Reviews. II is no,
surprising to learn that the medical
men Of the French capital do not unani-
mously or even in small numbers in
dorse the validity of the claims made
nor do they express complete conf
dcrce in the source from which the
claims emanate.
The answer 10 the question of the en-
istpnce of a cancer bacillus is still TO be
"e"koncd among the mysteries of bac-
te"ioiogical research. One striking an
"loGy to recognized microbe disease is
lacking in the clinical history Of can
"cr--viz., its rare appearance before
middle life, even though exposure be
prolonged to many years. The tuber-
Gle bacillus may find 81 soil for reproduc-
ton III al ages and among all classes.
This is very far from the fact in the his
tory Of cancer invasion, the exceptions
being too few to prove that 1t is other
than disease peculiar to the period of
middle life and old age.

Popular FaIncy Exploded.

The Scientific American states that

ton Of steel and iron in bridge struc-

probable that large percentage of the
passengers daily crossing Brooklyn

they are renewed, will in the course Of
time give way and precipitate the whole
bridge into the river. Tests in the la
4aoratory and half century's tests in
the field, supplemented by the recent
careful tests made by Prof. Carpenter,
of Cornell. prove that this view is no

DAWSON IS FIRE SWEPT

LOSS Is PLACED AT FOUR MILLION

Nothing In the Way of Rebuilding Can BE
Done Because Of the Lack of Material.
Fire Is Started, as Before, by Drunken
Woman Upsetting Lamp-Every Eff
fort to Check Flames Unsuccessful.
VICTORIA, May 22.-An extra edition
of the Skagway Alaskan received by
the steamer Lees at midnight contains
the following report, wired from BEN
nett to Skagway just previous to the
sailing OF the steamer: tAnother dis
astrous fire has visited Dawson City,
this time fairly wiping out the entire
business center of the town, creating
losses that will aggregate $4,O00,000,
with not dollars worth of insurance.
The news was telegraphed from Ben
nett this afternoon by the special CORE
spondent of the Daily Alaskan, who re-
ceived it from a man named Tokales,
who had just reached Bennett from
long and perilous trip out from Dawson
over broken trails, open rivers and dan
gerous lakes.
Mr.. Tokales reported that the fire
started April 81 in the very business
heart of the city, commencing near the
opera house on the water front, and
spreading with unusual rapidity, driven
by strong wind, destroying. every
thing i'll its way on that street. down to
and including Donahue & Smiths es-
Enlistment, and taking in ali of the
water front buildings abreast Of the
same blocks. The fire crossed the street,
burned through and spread over to Sec
ond street, covering the principal bust
ness portion of Dawson. leaving it all
in ashes, with the firemen helpless and
powerless to do anything The fire
consumed everything from the Simmons
Royal cafe down to and opposite the
Fairview hotel. All the buildings
burned like finder, due to the fact that
they had been standing for nearly two
years and the logs were as dry as pow
| der. The fire spread with such rapid
| ity that the people were unable to save
anything in the away of furniture. goods
and clothing, so that the losses when
footed up promise to be even greater
| than at first estimated.
Among the prominent firms burned
out We're: The Royal cafe, Donahue s.
Smith. Mcclellan g McFeely, Parsons
Produce company, Aurora saloon, Boz
dega saloon, Madmen house, Victoria,
Mcdonald block, Bank of British North
America and scores Of smaller firms and
business houses.
This fire came at time when the mills
and dealers in building materials had ex-
hausted their winter supply and were
waiting the opening of navigation to
replenish their stocks. The results are
that there is q famine in all lines Of
building material and furniture. such as
sash, doors, locks, hinges, etc.
The few articles still remaining out
side of the burned district have quad
rupled in prices Doors are selling for
| $35 each, door locks So each and every
thing else in proportion. The town is
paralyzed, because nothing can be done
until the opening OF navigation, which
will not be for several weeks
The fire was caused by a drunken
woman upsetting lamp.
