The main feature of humor during all this entangle- ment is supplied by Eddie Foy, who being originally the clown in the aforesaid band of strolling players, assumes the disguise of the count before the real count appears, by which time the latter's reputation has been pretty well sullied.

Precautionary Steps

Washington, January 3.-The war de- partment is taking steps to prevent the in- troduction of the plague in the Philippines, and Secretary Root today called into con- sultation Surgeon General Wyman, of the marine hospital service, to discuss the es- tarbishment of quarantine system for the islands.
 It was decided that the war department should adopt towards the Philippines a policy like it pursued toward Cuba in the matter of protection of the health, namely, confine the maintenance of a quarantine system to the Marine Hospital Service. The reports received by both the state de- partment and from Surgeon General Wy man from Honolulu confirm the Associated Press dispatches relative to the existence of the disease.
 It happens, fortunately, that the Marine Hospital Service has already two quaran- tine plants tn the Philippines, while two of its surgeons are now on their way to Manila, so ulat little delay will be encoun- tered in beginning to draw a rigid quaran- time line in that island.
 Surgeon General Wyman does not feel apprehensive as to the possibility of the infection of San Francisco from Honolulu.
 The Plague in Honolulu
 Washington, January 3.-Surgeon-Ge al Wyman today received a long report from Surgeon Carmichael, who is station ed at Honolulu, bearing on the condition of affairs there regarding the bubonic plague Under date of December IS the re- port says that five cases and five deaths from what is pronounced to be bubonic plague have occurred in Honolulu on the 11th and 12th instants.
 pr. Carmichael says the presence of the disease was not suspected until the morn- -~f fl.r l.t. died. An autopsy was held, the examina- tion pointing strongly to the fact that death was caused by the bltbonic plague Another case, also Chinaman, who had died on December Il, was examined with the same result.
 Cultures from bacilli taken from the first case show Bhe bacillus of bubonic plague. A guinea pig, rabbit and "a rat were in oculated. sTahe guinea pig and rat died.
 Three Chinamen died on the 11th. The fifth case was that of a South Sea islander who died on the 12th. A sixth case was re- ported on December IA, Hawaiian. This

Should Not Be Used.

An eastern firm has issued a circular
letter cautiOning wool growers not to
use sisal grass to bind up their fleeces.
They say that with the exercise of the
utmost care in the removal of this
Irvine from the tleeces some tibres are
liable to adhere to the wool and follow
it through the various processes with
out discovery until the goods are dyed,
when every strand shows plainly on the
surface. This leads not only to vexa-
tious delays, but also serious claims
and cancellations.
Some manufacturers refuse to buy
wool in which thereis more or less of this
Irvine, and others will only do so with
the privilege of rejecting the fleeces
so tied. 1t may readily be seen that
great trouble is occasloned by the use
of this Irvine. Many localities have al
ready abandoned the use of it, but in
Michigan the custom largely prevails,
and the fact that wool is from this
state is often sufficient to create a pref
udice against in some manufacturers
minds, even before examination.
The difference to the grower between
the grass Irvine and the smooth hard
kind, which should properly be used,
must be very trifling and certainly can
bear no relation whatever to the many
losses it causes the consumer.-Mar-
lette Leader.
