AT CATTLE QUARANTINE.
Col. Bingham Attracts Considerable Atten'
tIon In and About Athena.

PAssAIc. April II Col. j, II. Bingham,
Assistant Secretary Of Agriculture. and
Col. +. R. Burch, the chief clerk In the Gov
eminent Bureau Of Animal Industry AT
Washington. spent yesterday at the uniteo
States cattle quarantine. The purpose
of this visit was to inspect the quarantine
and to arrange for the purchase OF ten
additional acres for the use OF the station.
The visitors were driven around the country.
report says. after they had inspected the
station and attracted considerable atten-
ton, especially Col. Bingham. He is about
8 feet Q inches tall and weighs about PAS
pounds.
The station. which is at Athena is said
by experts 10 be one OF the finest IN the
world The institution was moved from
Garfield two years ago.
IL had been al Garfield for a number OF
years, the Government renting the property
and buildings from a land company. Except
in rare cases. all the cattle entering the
port of New York, including sheep and swine,
are sent TO Athena for detention. Even
in extraordinary cases, as in the importa-
ton Of deer and came j., the rule II Observed
and only q short time ago the detention
farm said an ungrateful farewell to two
wild pigs from the forests OF Germany
which some one had brought over presum-
ably for a game preserve. The only animals
not taken to Athena, but which were
put through az equally rigid examination
as the others, were those Of the big shows
That was because the greatest care Is gwen
10 those animals by their owners.
The station consists Of forty-five acres
Of rolling land, including five-acre reser-
walton for DR.. Pope's Offices and residence,
and on il are twenty stables Isolated and
each with spacious enclosure.
These stables vary In capacity from
dozen head to one which will hold eighty
head Of stock. Eleven of them are OF
brick and nine are wooden buildings, which
were moved over from Garfield and partly
renewed 1t is expected that these will he
torn down and replaced with brick ones
when the stables are built on the newly
acquired property.
In the newer stables cement construction
il used when possible, and between each
period OF occupation barn is suiced out
with carbolic acid and whatever hay or
bedding IL left is burned.
The Imported animal is taken from the
ship by lighter TO the Erie docks in Jersey
City, put on the Erie train and taken TO
Athena on that roads Newark branch.
On it's arrival at Athena the animal steps
from the car to the soil Of the reservation.
1t does not traverse a foot OF public high
way until il has passed the period OF de-
tention. There are frequent examinations
and no beast which is not in good health
Is permitted to leave the place.

DAY OF PRAYER FOR NEGROES.
Colored Congregations Asked TO Set Aside
the First sunday In May.

The negro ministers OF New York and
vicinity have issued an appeal to the negroes
Of the country to devote the first Sunday
in May to fasting and praying for the
lettering Of the condition Of the negro
In America.
The appeal Is issued by the Colored Bap-
fist Ministers Conference of Greater New
York and vicinity and the Afro American
Cosmopolitan Non-Denominational Meet
ing of Greater New York. Part of it says:
We are confronting a crisis in our life I'M
like any former trial through which We have
passed "a crisis fun OF deadly menace to
all free men hold dearest. Our friends are
dying out or becoming indifferent. Our
enemies emboldened by our apparent help
lessness. are seeking to deprive us OF all the
sacred guarantees of the Constitution OF the
United States, which are 80 dear to us and
mean 30 much to every American citizen
We, therefore,. herein designate the First
Lords Day, in May. 1903. as a day of fasting
and praying and ask that every negro who
can will read the fourth chapter OF Esther
and that every negro minister OF all denoinina-
tions throughout the United States, preach
special sermon from this text: For how
can / endure to see the evil that shall come
unto my people? or how can endure TO see
the. distinction of my kindred" Esther
