FIND SINGLE CASE
William Bender, When Examined
BY Physician, Found to
Have Smallpox.
QUARANTINE is ESTABLISHED
Or: J. r. Myers, Health Commissioner,
Says Only so Per Cent Usual
Sickness Exists in City.

William Bender, 31S Twenty-third
street, was found this morning to be
afflicted with smallpox, the disease be-
| ing in a well advanced stage. He had
not, before this morning, been eXamin-
ed by a physician. When the physi-
! clan made an examination, he reported
to DIR. J. F. Myers, the health commits
| sioner, that he believed Bender was
suffering from smallpox. The patient
| was at once removed to the detention
| hospital in the southwestern part of
| the city and placed under quarantine.
| The house where he roomed, in whicn
there are two families living, was also
quarantined, and all of the households
vaccinated. No further outbreak is an
| ticipated.
City's Health Good.
In connection with the discovery of
| the smallpox case, DR.. Myers was ques-
toned in regard to the general health
of the city. In reply he stated that
| from inquiries made at the drug stores
and of the physicians, he estimated
| that there is not over so per cent of
The usual sickness in the city at this
| time of year. He declares that the
health of infants has been exceptional,
but one death resulting this year from
the most frequent disease of infants.
There has been little or no contagious
disease here this summer
Due to the Agitation.
The conditions are credited largely
to the fact that the milk supply has
been closely watched by the authori-
ties, and the dealers have been COM
PEELED to furnish not only milk up to
the standard in butter fat. but pure
and clean. This agitation has undoubt-
eddy had its effect on the public health.
Close watch has also been kept on the
ice furnished in the city, and another
reform, looking toward the regulation
of the condition of the bakery delivery
wagons, is to be brought before the
city council. Many of these are very
unclean, and DR.. Myers will suggest
the passage of an ordinance COMPEL
ing the bakeries to keep their wagons
in clean, sanitary condition. These
movements that look toward better
conditions of public health should meet
with general approval and cooperation

CALLS ON DEMOCRATS FOR
CONTRIBUTION OF DOLLAR
Congressional Committee Points Out
Importance of Victory In Com
ing Campaign.

The democratic congressional com
mittee has sent out the following ad
dress to the members of the party
throughout the United States copy
having come to The Argus with re
quest for its publications
"To All Democratic V9ers: If there
ever was a time in the history of the
democratic party for the manifestation
of loyalty and patriotism on the part
of it's members, 1t is right now.
"If we are to win victory and elect
a president two years hence, we must
first elect a house of Representatives
this fall. A democratic house can and
will investigate every department OF
the government. With all of them honey
combed by graft the edges of which
only have been touched by recent eX
posture and prosecutions, there will be
a revelation of rottenness that will as
found the country and create a demand
for democratic administration to clean
the government workshop.
ITO win the house we need money &c
defray legitimate expenses and get ont
our vote. We have no protected mo
nopolies from which TO draw to fill oul
Golfers, as they do those of the repub
lican party. We must, therefore, APP
peal to loyal democrats for contribu
tons.
Twill you send us 81 at once. and in
return for this we will send you copies
of our campaign literature as ISSUED
by the committee. You will have the
thanks of the entire democratic party
for your favorable response to our re
quest.

Tried To Collect
BAD DEBT
And Were Arrested

Hilo. April 20.-The example set here
by two japanese. Fugi Kalchi and Ma
kamoto Snturo. for the collection Of
bad bills ended dlsastrously In District
Court Thursday when Judge Hapai
fined each 800.
II all happened thus: Hamada, a
swlndling Japanese who until the de-
parture of the $. s. olympia. conduct
ed n store here, went aboard the ship
on the eve of its departure. leaving be-
hind number of creditors aud Jos.
Iierra minus n buggy and harness,
which he had borrowed and later sold.
Among the creditors were Kaichi and
Sotaro. who held a note from Hamada
for $40. Knowing Of the departure oil
the storekeeper they went To the store
and at IL o'clock at night, against the
protest OF Hamada's stableman, they
proceeded TO reimburse themselves by
taking some OF the remaining stock.
II IL claimed that while taking this
stock one OF them entered each item In
the sales book. appraising Its worth,
which they entered In the cash column.
The next day. while attempting to
dispose of the goods. they were appre-
hended and charged with second degree
larceny.
Upon trial Monday. their attorney
argued that in their actions there wah
nothing TO indicate an intent to de-
fraud. The Judge thought this was a
poor method to collect debts. and, as an
example to others. fined them the 500
per. An appeal was noted.

ReStariCk Speaks On
San Francisco Disaster

Bishop RESEARCHES sermon ut the St.
Andrews Cathedral yesterday treated
the San Francisco disaster in its moral
and religious aspect. The text was as
follows:
"Or those eighteen upon whom the
tower OF SLOAN fell and slew them.
think ye that they were sinners above
all men that dwelt In Jerusalem?
tell you. Nay, but except ye repent. ye
shall all likewise perish" st. Luke
kill, As.
The Bishops pointed out the fallacy
Of the idea that calamities like the one
in question were to be considered a Wis
itation by God as direct punishment
for the sins OF the people OF the strick-
en- city. The growing greed In our ma
tional and business life he dwelt on at
length, showing that many OF the
houses in the burned districts were
mere tinderboxes. and menace to life
and health which ought to be des'
troyed Other lessons which could be
learned from the disaster were the true
value of things and the essential broth
erhood Of man. He ended his sermon
with these words:
After the crucifiNion comes the re-
surrectlon that Is the eastertide lesson
God grant that after this cross OF fire
San Francisco may rise which shall
be better and purer and SO stronger. A
city whose glory shall not be In III
blocks and stocks but in the character
OF its men. the purity and stability OF
Its homes, the integrity Of its citizens
and It's stand for God, for righteous
ness and for truth"
