Havana, February Tine report of the
Yellow Fever Board was read today be-
fore the fever section of the Pan-Ameri-
can Medical Congress. Two of the main
conclusions were that the specific cause
of the disease is unknown, and that 1t
can only be carried by mosquitoes. Con-
seauently the distnfection OF clothing
and houses is useless.
The fever can be produced by sub
cutaneoua injection of blood from pa
tient who must have had the disease for
not more than two days. Mosquitoes
must also bite the patient during the frat
two days OF his Illness or they cannot
transmit the diPease. The board kept an
infectsd mosquito for tifty-ons days, wnen
1t was allowed to bite persons, who con-
tracted the disease. Tns board differs
from DIR. Finlay. in that the latter holds
that more than one kina of mosquito can
convey yellow fever. Ths board says
there is only one kind that can do so. Dr.
Finlay also says that q mosquito can
transmit the disease the fourth or NTH
day after biting a patient. while the
board says that twelve days must inter-
vene.
The board reported that non-immunes
were allowed to sleep in infected clothing
and bedding, but none contracted the d.
sease. A member OF the congress objectsd
that thess so-ealled non-immuues might
really have been immunes. The board re-
piled that two of these were subsequently,
subjected to the bites Of infected mos-

ago. One Michael Ryan, patrolman Of
the second precinct and a favorite with
the faculty and students of the State
University, was discharged by Mayor
Ames after twenty-five years Of faith
full service. He is Republican and
was one when Ames was masQuerad-
ing as a Democrat for Office only. He
is a Grand Army man who risked his
life on Southern battlefelds for the
preservation Of the Union, but he is an
Irish Catholic" and consequently not
an American" according to Ames'
classification. When revising his ratio

In an editorial on "Anti-Irish Stage
Blackguardism" Hon. John f. Finerty
says in the Chicago Citizen: There
were Irish comedians-we are glad to
say there are still such-who never
degraded Irish character on the boards.
Tradition hands down to us one Of this
class, the lamented Tyrone Power, who
was drowned in the wreck Of the Presi-
dent, while returning from this country
to Ireland. John Collins was another
of the same school. So also is John
Dillon, when he appears on the stage,
Chauncey Olcott and "Joe" Murphy.
These actors, and some others, speak
and perform naturally, and, therefore,
without offense. But then there are
others who go around the country, got
ten up as a bad cross between a buff
Irishman, unless he happened to be
foon and a jackass, costumed as no
an imbecile or lunatic, ever was
costumed, and speaking such tongue
as no sane Irishman ever spoke or
thought of speaking. These fellows
are, generally, graduates Of the Lon
don or New York dance halls and are
as pestiferous as vermin. They ought
to be hunted off the stage, and If the
law does not protect the Irish-Ameri-
can element from their blackguardism
that element can effectively protect it.

and letting the dirty rascals starve.

pered by satisfaction at the abject and
ludicrous failure of the attempt. From
the moment at which meeting of the
United Irish League assembled after
midnight Mass in the first hour of the
new century at Kiltimagh. the people
in q succession of meetings declared
their defiance of the attempted coer-
cion and their determination to make
their voices heard in the demand for
redress of the monstrous injustice I'M
der which they labor. Side by side
with Mr.. Dillon, member for the di-
vision, throughout this succession of
proclaimed meetings was the patriotic,
Father O'Grady Of Bohola, and Fa-
Their Denis O'Hara, who is, with the
single exception of the bishop of Rap
hoe, the most popular and effective
member of the Congested Districts
board, of which the new chief secre.
tary is eX-officio president.
Such is the system on which, after
the lapse of century, the government
of Ireland is conducted. Today the
chief secretary sets his reckless and
brutal police force to baton Father
O'Hara. Tomorrow, seated by his side
at the Congested Districts board, he
invokes the aid of his knowledge and
experience in the unknown problems
of Irish administration with which he
is confronted. If Mr.. Wyndham de-
sired to open the new century in Ire
land with display of the incompe-
tence of Castle government, he has
amply succeeded. In all other respects
Tuesdays display was a total failure.
The police authorities displayed
their customary offensive violence.
But the National organization tri-
umphcd all along the line. A series of
proclaimed meetings were held where
only one had been originally projected,
and the attack of the Castle as usual
has served only to consolidate the
unity and infiame the enthusiasm of
the people. A hundred years of mis-
rule in Ireland have not advanced our
rulers one jot in justice or wisdom. 1t
has not weakened our peoples pas
sionate resolve to regain their liberty.
This with Mr.. Wyndham's aid has been
satisfactorily demonstrated on the first
day of the new century.

cry upon men determined to be free.
The Mckinley press surpassed the
Salisbury press in virulence and sour
rility, and it was only last week that
the governor of Minnesota inflicted
personal chastisement upon an editor
of an imperialistic sheet for calling
him "a traitor" in its columns. The
same spirit Of animosity toward politi-
cal opponents has characterized the
Anglo-Saxon press on both sides of the
Atlantic during the wars Of subjuga-
ton in South Africa and the Philip
pines. The two Anglo-Saxon govern
ments have pulled together in depriv-
ing weak nations of their God-given
rights, and Americans and English
men are ashamed of their depreda.

are now in the saddle, but the day will

The following item is going the
rounds of the press and we give it for
what it is worth: peasants in Done
gal, Ireland, are anxious to find good
market for the large quantities of hon
ey with which the county is favored.
The honey industry is almost new
phase in Donegal life" The drones of
the British Islands-the nobility and
gentry who neither toll nor spin-can
consume all the honey produced in
"sweet Donegal" They already eat
the fowls of the air, the beasts of the
field, the fish of the river, and every
thing else worth eating in the island
and there is no reason why the 'peas-
ants,'' who live chiefly on vegetables,
should be anxious to find a good mar
ket for the sweet fluid collected from
flowers by Industrious insects. The
aristocracy can get away with all the
milk and honey that Ireland can pro-
duce.

Says our esteemed contemporary, the
Goodhue County News: England's
degradation is complete in the vel
come given to Roberts, returning from
the burning of Boer farms and the in
famous war upon women in an unsuc-
cessful attempt to vanquish the stub
born burghers and extinguish the Afri-
kander republics. At the hour when
the honor Of earldom was conferred on
the endorsed victor, his successor in
defeat was planning to resist invasion
Of Cape colony and stifle rising of
Dutch adherents whose loyalty had
never been shaken but for the atroci-
ties toward their kinsmen. Defeat
may be noble. Victory in an evil
cause may be disgrace. But to what
depths has England fallen when queen
and people make a triumph Of a defeat
in shameful cause! The figure of
Nero fddling while Rome burned be-
comes heroic by contrast.

The recent military reverses and

South Africa have cast gloom over
the inhabitants of England from John

of them, I. N. Ford, in special cable
to the New York Tribune (Whitelaw

Referring editorially to the death of
Ignatius Donnelly, the Philadelphia
Catholic Standard and Times says:
Whether one agreed with his literary
or his political theories, there can be
no cavilling, atall events, at this propo-
sition-that Ignatius Donnelly was an
original thinker and a man of decided
individuality, and will occupy niche
all to himself in the Valhalla Of fame.
The blow of his sudden taking off is
all the more regrettable from the fact
that it came at a time when his family
here were in sore trouble over the pro-
tracted illness of Miss Eleanor Don
nelly, the beloved Catholic poet and
writer. We cannot say more or say
less under such affecting circumstances
than tender this most estimable family
the respectful sympathy of the Catho-
lie public.

attended a gathering of the students
of the College Of the Propaganda in
Rome, where speeches were delivered
by forty young seminarians, one Of
whom was a Boer. When the Afri-

and other English prelates retired. The
students took in the situation and vo-
ciferously cheered the young man from
the veldts.

There are two men in the United
States occupying elective Offices who
appear to be callously Indifferent to
public opinion in the matter of appoint
ments. They are William Mckinley,
of Canton, Ohio, and Albert A. Ames,
of Minneapolis, MINI. The former is
appointing sons Of supreme court judg-
es to offices in Porto Rico while their
fathers are hearing cases in which Nc
Kinley's imperial policy is at stake.
The latter is appointing men to mu-
nicipal positions whose honesty, integ-
rity and responsibility are not above
criticism. William and Albert, though
unlike in other respects, are very much
alike in rewarding their friends at the
expense of the people.
