The Philadelphia North American tells an
interesting story as to how the artist
Munkacsy was lifted from obscurity to
fame through the aid Of an American pat
ron:
In 1869 Mr.. and Mrs. Wilstach, OF Phila-
delphia. who were travelling in Germany,
paused at Dusseldorf. Mr.. Wilstach, a
great lover of paintings, took a deep inter-
est in the men at work In this center of
art. He met John TAFT an American artist,
and TAFT told him of young Hungarian,
who had bold ideas and vivid style of
coloring. This was Munkacsy. Mr.. Will
stach looked him up, and found him en-
gagged upon a large canvas entitled 1.-The
Last Day Of a Man Condemned to Death" "
The treatment of the subject was so strik-
ing that the Philadelphia Immediately
agreed to buy the picture, and made a pay
ment In advance in order to aid the poor
artist. When the painting, which he did
for Mr.. Wilstach was finished, that gentle
man insisted that 1t should be sent to the
Paris Salon of 1870 There it created a
sensation. and the humble Hungarian found
himself suddenly famous. 1t earned him a
medal, wealthy patron and start on the
road to fame.

The New Orleans Times-Demccrat says
irreparable damage has been done to shade
trees in that city by the electric wires
strung along or through them. Some of
the finest oaks" 1t says, magnificent trees
fifty years and more old. have been killed
by the electric wires, which are supposed
to be insulated but are not because the
work is so poorly and inefficiently done
that the trees are constantly receiving
shocks of electricity and are finally killed
by electrolysis." This sort of vandalism
is going on to a greater or less extent in
all cities. It's effects can be seen here in
many deadened or mutilated trees. 1t is
simply one phase of the recklessness Of
corporations which, having acquired GER
tain rights from a city, use them as a
shield for perpetrating numerous wrongs.
The shade trees in this city are one of its
chief attractions. anc If protected they will
grow more beautiful from year to year.
All they ask is to be let alone, and this
should include protection against tree muir
der and mayhem in all its forms.

SEATTLE GETTING READY
PREPARING TO FIGHT BUBONIC
PLAGUE.
Chinatown There Like it Was Here,
quired to Remedy alters.

SEATTLE, January 20.-The bubonic
plague, which from time immemorial
has been the black terror of the Orient,
and which is now raging in Honolulu,
will not gain a foothold in Seattle if
precautions to be taken at once by the
local health authorities can prevent it.
Health Officer McKechnie yesterday
outlined a policy by which he believes
any possibility of the plague coming
to Seattle will be averted AS preli
minary step, DR.. McKechnie has decid-
ed to thoroughly renOvate and cleanse
Chinatown, which he describes as being
in a filthy condition, after which he
will proceed rapidly to cleansing other
sections of the city.
Two things caused DR.. McKechnie to
decide on radical measures. One was a
request from the United States board
of health at Washington city for infor-
nation as to what steps will be taken
to prevent the spread of the plague
from Honolulu to this city The other
was the alleged arrival of the ship from
Honolulu at Port Townsend yesterday
flying yellow flag that told of the dire
disease having found victims on board.
At late hour last night news was re-
Ceived of the arrival of the bark B. p.
Cheney and the schooner Ethel Zane,
both from Honolulu, but no cases of
! sickness were reported on board and
! the vessels underwent fumigation to
comply with the precautionary regula-
lions now enforced. There seems to
| have been no ground for the report of
the arrival of vessel under the yell
low flag.
DIR. McKechnie went on tour of in
spection through Chinatown. which, he
says, he found to be a wide field for
sanitary operations. Very few of the
! buildings in that locality have any
! sewer connections, and today the health
department VIII serve notice on the
owners to make connections on penalty
of arrest. Inspections will be made
also in various other sections of the
city, and drastic measures will be tax
en- to prevent any possibility of infec-
! ton.

uLLIS FAMILY TO KAuHI.

At the meeting of the Board of Health
yesterday afternoon the matter of send
ing the people from 13 Punchbowl
street, the house in which ]. H. Hart
man lived, to Kalihi was discussed and
decided upon. They will occupy the
cottage there erected for Europeans In
the house are Mrs. Lilis, Frank Lillis,
Mrs. Burt and six children. Mrs. Burt
lived in the block back of the Occidental
hotel and had just come out of quar-
antine at the Queen hotel. The house
occupied by the family and Hartman
is owned by the Holt Estate. 1t will
be destroyed.
f. j. Lowrey moved that saloon hours
be fixed, for the present, at from a. m.

Cecil Brown, attorney for L. L. Nc
Candless, notified the Board that his
client would not tear out the outbuild-
ings on his property fronting Nuuanu
street without an order from the court.
AS the property has been officially con-
demned the Board ignored the protest.
Inspector William Blaisdell submit
ted a report on the condition of cess
pools in the unburned portion of China
town. They were said to be in a very
bad condition and hard to get at. Tt
was suggested that there will be one
general sink to receive the flow from
all closets, the same to be in such posi-
ton as to be easily accessible to the
| odorless eXcavators.
The question of rats again came up
and the motion to place a bonus of
rs cents each upon them passed. Last
night DR.. Wood placed this resolution
into effect. Rats dead or alive will be
received.
Last night A. Frank Cooke applied
| to DR.. Wood for a saloon license for
the Seamans club, explaining that that
was the only way to get the institution
open again. The applicant was referred
to the Minister of Interior.

dNOTHER KANSAS CASE.

1 As everything happens in Kansas, the l case of Mrs. Cook and Mr. Kirby Rog- CTS of Wichita isn't surprising, but 1t is interesting. Mrs. Cook married Mr.
 Cook, who has grown-up children, mar
 ried MT. Rogers she required from him
 ways vote as she told him to, that she was to have two-thrds of their com
 bined property and also that she was
 to have the privilege of travelling alone,
 wherever and whenever she pleased. In return she agreed never to ask him
 where he had been when he got home late at night, and never to hunt through his pockets for letters that he didn't want her to see. So they were married, and then MT. Rogers discovered that Mrs. Rogers knew what she wanted when the ante-nuptial agreement was made. As soon as the preacher was through kissing the bride she informed her husband that she would start at once on the wedding tour, and that she would go alone. MT. Rogers was stag gered, but there was no help for him, and his wife is now enjoying her honey moon, while he is at home waiting and wondering if she will return to tell him how to vote in November or simply call him up on the telephone from somewhere miles away and deliver her instructions.
 Perhaps Mrs. Rogers will order Mir Rogers to vote the Prohibition ticket She evidently wants temperate hus-
