ANOTHER PLAGUE CASE
SACRAMENTO Bee SAYS IT'S
FOUND IN SAN FRANCISCO
While Gage Was Reading His Mes
sage to the Legislature Claim
ed to be Twenty Third
Since March.

Sacramento. Jan. 1.-THE Sacramen.
to Bee today publishes the following:
Rare old Caesar used to remark
Whom the gods wish to destroy they
first make mad" Just at the time when
Governor Henry T. Gage would give
anything rather than have any fresh
plague outbreak IN San Francisco an
other case has appeared. Even while
his TRADE against Kinyounism and
those newspapers that refuse to sup
press the facts at the behest of com
mercialism and political consideration
was being transmitted to the Legis'a-
ture and distributed about the streets
of San Francisco through especially
favored journals. Chun Wey Lung. a
Chinese merchant. 60 years old, was
lying dead Of plague. having been
found two days before In his store in
the basement Of 12O Jackson street in
that city. ID
The conditions surrounding this last
case of plague are such as to cause
more than usual apprehension. The
first case of plague in San Francisco,
discovered on March 9Th last, was
found at 1901 Dupont street, which Is
on the cCrncr Of Dupont and Jackson
streets. in the same block with and but
half block away from the place where
this latest case developed. The seventh
case. one of two discovered on May
18th. appeared at III Jackson street. di-
rectly across the street from this latest
case. These circumstances indicate n
well defined center Of infection at this
point. just as n similar center Is indi-
Gated by the fact that four deaths from
plague occurred In the block where the
case Of December eth was found. the
twenty-secOnd on the list.
The present case is the twenty-third
that has been discovered in San Fran
cisco between March G. 1900. and the
present time.
The death was reported by DR.. F. p.
Wilson. City Physician Of San Fran
cisco while he was making his rounds
of the undertaking establishments on
January 9Th Sunday. The body had
not been removed and was found by
DR.. Wilson in the basement.

POTTER'S VICE CAMPAIGN

New York, Jan. 16.- II the present
plans of Bishop Potter are carried to
successful elimination he will have
established in Il few days vigilance
committee numbering 5000 persons,
pledged and sworn to learn of and cor
rect existing evils in this city.
Speaking to a remarkable assem-.
blage of men in all walks of life at st.
Paul's chapel last November, Bishop
Potter advocated the formation of
such a committee, each member of
which would labor individually for
the good of the city and the stamping
out of places of iniquity that have
grown and been fostered by police pro-
lection.
1t Is well known that Bishop Potter
has personally felt that too little at
tention has been given to the fact that
the labor organizations as united bod.
les and workingmen as individuals
have enlisted to assist in the reforma'
ton of the city's evils. In the vigil
ance committee now organizing there
will be hundreds of laboring men, who,
better than anyone else, know of the
overrunning Of immortality In the far
east and west SIDE tenements, where
the homes of honest workingmen are
found.
Bishop Potter said last night: mo
man Is better qualified to take up the
work of publication than he who tolls
to support his wife and children. II
was in realization of the value of
the man representing labor that when
was asked for my advice about the
formation of the committee of fifteen
! said: AT all events let there be It
least two representatives of labor Of
the committee"

What a Patent Costs,

In the course of its progress through
the office up to the issue and mailing
of patent. says Z. Y. Smallcy in The
Century. an application passes through
tlle hands of - persons. An applicant
pays SO to have his claim examined,
and in case he is granted patent an
additional fee of sa0'is required. At
torneys charge from S25 UP, according
to the work demanded by the cases.
and as the applications number about
10000 yearly it will be seen that there
is q good deal of money to he divided
among the patent lawyers whose signs
cover the faces of the buildings in the
vicinity of the patent Office.
An inventor is not required to en-
ploy an attorney. but probably 80 out
Of 100 do. In simple eases where there
is no interference with prior claims an
inventor can almost as we'll deal direct
With the government. but in most eases
the knowledge of the lawyer is valua-
BILE. He can study other inventions in
the same line and knows how to make
the claim of his client broad enough to
cover all that is new and valuable and
not SO broad as to be rejected.

Kipling to the bus owner. who is also
landlord of one of the local inns.
That evening the landlord laid the
letter before the select company of the
bar parlor. They advised an attitude
of calm Indifference. Also Il Crnsus
among them offered $3.50 in cash for
the autograph letter. Both advice and
cash We're accepted.

which tl.c inuzz,c IF Il guncansafely he
pointed; these are up or down. A shot
fired In Dir can scarcely injure any
one or anything and one discharg-

that it is pointed either up or down.
Sometimes a man will he seen who

common. for it is extremely dangerous,
and many men have been killed by
carrying tlleir guns in this way. If a
man stumbles or steps in a hole or
catches his foot on root and falls, his
gun will very likely he thrown for
ward with tho muzzle directly toward
his body and may easily enough be dis
charged.
Sometimes one may see boy or
even a man who will carry the gun
across the back of the neck, with one
arm over the stock and the other over
the barrels. sometimes with the hand
resting OH the muZzle. This is certain
to give a worry uncomfortable feeling

They Were Forming Opinions.

The club was full. Evening papers
were Mt a premium. An atrocious crime
had been that day committed, and ev-
cry member was reading the account
of the tragedy and eagerly discussing
the details.
A foot had been found in the East
river, n leg in the Hudson and the trunk
of body in the park. Loud were the
expressions of horror and disgust. Sud-
denly lull came over the crowd, and
two small voices were heard above the
modified din discussing the law of hu-
man nature which made people lean
toward curiosity even in it's morbid
tendency. The small voices grew louder
and the argument stronger, until at
last man in tones of undisguised pity
turned to the disputants and said:
$50 you think we are filled with NOR
bid curiosity:"
One of the small voices replied that
it looked very much as if that was the
case.
Nothing Of the kind" expostulated
the former speaker. You mistake our
motive. We are merely disqualifying
ourselves for jury duty"

diately seized the only-two newspapers

Eating railway Iron.

Iron for the blood has evidently been
prescribed for the quails of Florida; at
least. these birds are eating steel rails
on the tracks of the sugar belt near
Runnymede. The report, which is well
authenticated. does not charge the
quails with actually swallowing the
rails. but it does say that they pick
away their particles wherever they find
a rusty spot where they are loosened.
From several points in the state
comes the report of holes found in steel
rails. and in cases they are large
enough to seriously weaken the ma
terial. Where rusty spot starts and
is picked out, it naturally holds mois-
ture, continues to rust, to be again
picked out, and SO the work of destruc-
tion goes on.
Railway engineers really believe that
the quails take the iron tonic because
they are not well and find that it re-
lieyes their distress.

Tried to Raise tho Dead.

n remarkable attempt was made In
Denmark recently to bring back to life
q man who had died III hospital The
experiment was measurably successful.
as resuscitation was effected several
hours after the man was pronounced
dead. pr. Mag, who was in chargc.
was unable to maintain life. however.
The patient had died from typhoid
fever, and DIR. Maag decided to try an
experiment. Respiration had ceased
completely and the body was cold. Di-
rect massage of the heart was resol'ted
to. The chest was cut open directly
over the heart. and through, the In
cision HE physician passed his hand
and seized tue heart. He commenced
series of compressions, and in n short
time the heart commenced to work of
it's own accord. The action of the
heart gradually became stronger, hut
the man had not commenced to
breathe. Only after the heart had.
been acting half an hour did the first
gasp for air come.
The patient was then assisted in
this for about an hour until finally he
was able to breathe quite freely. At
the same time his cheeks began to as
sumo a natural color. He lay in this
condition another half hour, but with
out regaining consciousness or appear
ing to feel the effects of the incision.
Then there was a reaction and respi-
ration ceased, although the heart con-
tinued to act eight hours longer. A
second effort was made to induce heart
action, but without result.
