The movement for the separation Of
church and state in France has
brought out a proposition from a
group of deputies to submit the ques-
ton to a referendum of the country.
The constitution contemplates a ref
erendum. but it is only adopted in the
case of questions of the highest i'm
portance. The proposers of the plan
assert that the separation of church
and state is so vitality important that
it should be submitted to the country.

Examiner, has endeavored to make
people believe that his trouble with
President Bulge was political, and
that his being released from his Off
cial position was due to his differing
with Pres. Bulge on politics, and
he has posed before the people as
martyr to the cause of political lib
erty because the church, with its
usual consistency, and in keeping
with its declarations would not be
dragged into politics when he desir-
ed it to express itself in his favor;
and because of his misrepresenta-
tions, the people, before understand
ing the affair, did lend him some en-
couragement, being led as people
sometimes will be, by their sympa-
thies; but Hart can't work that any
more; the people have been told and
now understand Thoroughly the SYM
pathy trick that the nti-'Mormons'
suggested to him, and they under
stand that he was not released be-
cause of his political belief or atti-
tude, but presumably because of his
betrayal of the church and its auth
critics, (The Statesman article is

that work. and because of making
mischief by misrepresenting what

next years.
Had the Emancipation Proclamation
been proclaimed before it was it would not

the enforcement of such a law.

enforce it. They said to the temperance
people: ''We have given you the law that

SPOTTED FEVER RECORD
TOPS THE 1872 FIGURES
More Cases of Cerebro-Spinal
Meningitis in New York than
for Thirty-Two Years.
REPORT FOR TEN WEEKS

NEW YORK, May 26-Although the Of
fcials of the health department have been
predicting less prevalence of cerebro-spinal
meningitis with the arrival of warmer
weather. the disease. which is also called
spotted fever" has been increasing in the
city steadily for several weeks. and there
are no indications at present of abatement.
The disease is not classed as contagious In
the sense that physicians are required to
report all cases coming to their notice, and.
therefore. the only reports by which the
health department can tell the status of
the disease are the reports of deaths. For
the past ten weeks there have been 357
cases. as compared with fifty-ive cases in
the corresponding weeks of last year.
The sanitary officials profess to see moth
ing alarming in the prevalence Of the dis
ease this year. saying that. while 1t is un-
usually prevalent, is increasing, and is OF
a more malignant type than usual, it in
variably becomes scarce in summer. Ordi-
narily the disease makes its appearance
early every spring and causes slight NOR
tally. such as is shown an the weekly
report of last year. 1t is regarded as mild
ly contagious, although two persons in the
same family are rarely afflicted. Since
only deaths are reported there has been
no way of determining the relative mortal
ity.
There have been about a dozen cases of
cerebro-spinal meningitis at Bellevue Hos
pital for a fortnight. and only one of the
patients has died so far, while the physi-
clans are hopeful for the recovery of all
the others. The disease is regarded at Belle
vue as so mildly contagious that the pa
tients not isolated, but are treated in
the wards. There has not been a case at
the hospital where the disease has been
communicated by patient to a physician
or nurse. the physicians say.
The health department officials and hos
pital physicians agree in the statement that
so little is known about the cause of cere-
bro-spinal meningitis that IL is impossible
to tell how persons contract il. Previous
to this year the disease never has assumed
an epidemic form. except in 1872. when 7s2
deaths were reported In the old city of New
York. now the borough of Manhattan. The
disease that year remained prevalent all
through the summer. reaching its highest
point In May. The special report on that
epidemic said that, while there is no doubt
that the epidemic variety of the disease is
due TO a specific poison the ''etiology of
the disease is obscure In the epidemic OF
1872. AS this year. most OF the persons who
died from the disease were children.

MARVELLOUS ESCAPE
OF RUSSIAN OFFICER

ST. PETERSBURG, May 26.-Captain
Jakovleff. former commander of the Rus
sian battleship Petropavlovsk. and Lieut..
Schmidt, the late Vice Admiral Makaroffs
aid-de-camp. have returned here Schmidt
tells remarkable story OF his escape. He
was busy entering up the adInirars log
when the explosion occurred. IIe jumped
out OF the chartroom onto the bridge of the
flagship, which was lunging from one side
to the other. He saw Admiral Makarof
and Grand Duke Cyril clinging to the end
of the bridge. Almost instantly the great
snip put her head down and plunged
straight 10 the bottom. Schmidt held tight
to the rsil of the bridge and as she went
down he looked up and saw the stern, with
hundred seamen clinging TO il, towering
above him. The aid-de-camp was carried
Tar below the surface. but was suddenly
shot up by the escape of a mass of impris-
oned air from the ship. He caught q piece
OF wrsckage and escaped without scratch.
Captain Jakovleff does not know how he
escaped When the explosion occurred he
lost consciousness and came to his senses
IN the hospital. Lieutenant Schmidt insists
on returning to the far East with the Bal
tic squadron.
