A BUBONIC PLAGUE CASE.
A STOKER ON A STEAMER FROM CAL
CUTTA FOUND TO HAVE THE
DISEASE.

According TO the report of Surgeon General
Wyman. sent from Washington to DR. Doty.
Health Officer of this port the disease from
which Rabyiane, a British Indian. who was
stoker on the steamer Hohenfels is suffering is
the bubonc plague. When the HohenfeIs ar
rived here from Calcutta and other Oriental
ports on last Monday she was detained at Quar-
antine for the usual examination of the vessel
and crew and the disinfection to which all yes
sells that arrive from ports that are liable to
cholera and other infectious and contagious dis
eases are subject. Part Of the examination is
thorough scrutiny of the crew who are obliged

Rabyiane. who is twenty years old and mar
ried. had swelling of the glands OF the groin
He was removed to Swinburne Island where Dr.
Doty performed operation to obtain the ma
terial necessary for thorough meteorological
test to discover the nature Of the disease A
part Of the official statement given out yester-
day by DR.. Doty the result Of the test was
as follows:
Speciments were taken from the gland and ex-
amined at the Quarantine laboratory and an
organisms believed to be the plague bacillus was
found. Upon discovery L sent the bacteriologist
OF this department to Washington yesterday
with the specimens referred to- and after an
examination by Drs. Ge1dings and Rosenau, of
the Marine Hospital Service, Surgeon General
Wyman reported to me last evening by tele-
firmed the diagnosis made in the laboratory Of
this department. The case is very mild
The Hohenfels is a steamer built especially
for the East Indian trade, and was recently put
on the Calcutta-New-York service.
The health authorities here do not believe that
rats will carry the bubonic plague None the
less. however, they will endeavor to kill the rats

TO Hoffman Island for detention and inspection
The upper part of the vessel will he thoroughly
fumeated. will also the cargo, which will
afterward he removed by lighters. The ship will
be fumigated every night for some time the
effort being to smother the rats that they
NAV not escape to the shore.
Funch. Edge & Co, the agents. had not been
notified yesterday afternoon of the decision of
DR. Doty 1t is not likely that the vessel will
even after fumigation. be allowed touch here
This Is not because the health authorities fear a
spread of the plague, but because they do not
wish to chance alarming the people.
Several times vessels carrying bubonic plague
have entered this port, and each time there has
resulted a scare and obstruction to naviga-
tion that was expensive and troublesome DR.
Doty will endeavor this time to prevent recur-
renee of this inconvenience.

burst through the floor of the car.
The brake was hastily applied and helter skel-

pying every seat they stood between the benches
and in the aisle, as we'll as filing the platforms.
When the flash came all tried to get out at once.

struggling to leave the burning car, was cut by
a piece Of glass from a window and painfully
injured about the left temple. hurry call was
sent to Bellevue Hospital and the woman was

Among the purchases delivered at the door of his rooms in the university town were boilers and mechanical appliances of various kinds. Sometimes the bill amounted to as much as $500. but that did not dismay Henley, so long as his father settled the accounts
 Finally the big bills began to come in with such frequency that the elder Henley warned manufacturers and merchants not to sell anything to his son. Moreover, he took his son per- sonally to task for his reckless expen- ditures. and thereupon the boy ad- mitted that there were times when he would rather do queer things than eat. times when he couldn't help buy ing whatever fancy prompted him to. Henley is said to be precocious youth. He was graduated from a Chicago high school at the age of 14. In school he showed remarkable apt ness in the study of electrical engi- neering and mechanics.

THE IMPORTANT MOMENT.

Resolutely make up your mind to make the most of life as it comes to you, and to enjoy each day as it is borne on to give place to the morrow. If you wait until you feel that you can afford to enjoy, you will never enjoy. Most men kill their capacity for hap piness while they are getting ready to be happy. In acquiring the wealth they think necessary for complete emancipation from business cares, they destroy their ability to find sat isfaction ill the pleasures of life.
 What more pitiable sight can be seen than that of q young couple who start ed out ill life with high hopes, lofty aims, and determination to win for themselves not only d humble compe- tence, but also the means to purchase some of the refined pleasures of life: who slaved early and late to lay up something for future enjoyment, per petually postponing present happiness for the great happiness of the future which a fortune will bring them, drudging year ill and year out, putting off the buying of books, pictures, a piano, bric-a-brac, or even the com forts, not to speak of the luXuries of home; i'll fact. postponing everything for the grand future. which, alas, viii never come When they arrive at the longed-for goal, the wealth may be there, but the power to enjoy will be dead.
 To life of unremitting drudgery, cessation of activity is torment. Leisure does not bring repose, but only fretting for something to do. Men and women who have postponed all relaxation and social pleasures during the long years of youth, until they have accumulated fortune, have robbed themselves of all that makes life worth living. They go to Europe to fulfill youthful dream, and find that strange lands bring more discom- 1 fort than pleasure to those who have lost the buoyancy of youth, and have not kept abreast of the times or learn ed the thousands of things necessary to make foreign travel enjoyable. | They come home, only ever to feel the l unrest of unsatisfied longings and dis | appointed hopes.
