PROTECT THE SOUTH.
New Yellow Fever Regulations Will Go
Into Effect Shortly.

NEW YORK. June l9.--Dr. 4. II.
Doty, health officer of the Port of New
York, said yesterday that the new quar-
antine regulations affecting Cuban ports
will 60 into effect on Saturday next and
will be enforced to the letter. Under
these regulations all passengers on the
steaships for Havana and other Cuban
ports must on arrival, produce certii-
Gates, showing that they are immune
from yellow yever. Their failure to do
SO will mean that they will be held for
observation until five days have elapsed
since their departure from Cuba.
The new regulation is intended to
keep yellow fever out of our southern
states" said Dr. Doty. "FOr instance, a
person with the fever in his system may
come from Havana in three days, and if
allowed to land can, by taking fast
train, be in New Orleans before the
expiration of the five.day limit Hence
the necessity for keeping all but i'm.
munes under observation for that period.
New York is of course in no danger. for
there are no yellow fever mosquitoes
here. 1t is different in the South, how
ever. We have got to protect that Sec
tion of the country and that is exact
ly what the new regulation is intended
to accomplish"

THREATENED STRIKE.

CHICAGO, June I9.-The threatened
freight handlers strike, which is due
next Thursday, according to the union
schedule, yesterday assumed a puzzling
aspect. While the men suddenly dis
played faith in reported peace signs the
railroads busily began preparation, for
trouble.
Strike breakers and special watchmen
were being hired at several detective
agencies during the day. No attempt
was being made to cover mp the plans
of the roads in this respect. Notwith-
standing these activities on the part of
the railroads an optimistic feeling per-
vaded the atmosphere about the union
headquarters. 1t was reported that
some of the roads were considering an
advance of wages to the men.

damaged" by her collision with the bar
kentine Jane l.. Stanford off this port
last Tuesday. 1t is quite natural for
her captain to keep mum about his ex-
periences. but it is reasonable to expect
that the reporters would get next and
send out some particulars. They are
badly wanted up this way. When the
truth is known it will be that the Stet.

Nakamura, professor of architecture of
the Imperial Universiay of Toxic and

Of the committee dispatched TO this city
by the Japanese government to investi.
gate the effects Of temblor and fire,
After investigations covering a period
Of weeks, DIR. Nakamura has completed
his lsbors and will sail on the Korea
Wednesday to report his conclusions to
his government.
Il find" said DIR. Nakamura yester-
day, that much OF the damage to San
Francisco from the earthquake was due
to poor mortar and faulty construction,
and the greater portion of the damage
to the class "Z" buildings by fire was
the result of misguided use of hollow
tiling and so-called fire blocks instead
of concrete. 1t is an easy matter, | have
found, to design building that will be
not only earthquake proof, but practi-
cally fire proof.
"There has developed as result of
the earthquake in San Francisco, great
prejudice against brick buildings. How,
ever, they are largely employed in
Japan. where earthquakes of greater Sc
verify than the one experienced in this
city are not uncommon. The secret of
their success. however, lies in the fact
that good mortar is used. The mortar
should either be composed of one part
cement to two parts of sand or of one
part cement, three of lime, and FIVE of
sand. The bricks should be thoroughly
wet before being laid, and when the
mortar has set under these conditions,
a wall becomes practically one stone"

captured and taken to the interior
by the Indians. He fully expected
to be scalped while the fagots
burned about him, but he made
friends with the chief and soon
found himself elevated to a high
position among the tribes. Before
him every one bowed.
After several years Hudson Bay
traders heard that a white man
was held in captivity among the
Indians and, bartering with the
red men, secured the British sailor
upon the payment of a roll of
blankets.
But Jarman went back to live
among the Indians. He married a

ing Gee is his name.
He has visited every large city
in the United States and nary a
nickel has he settled for his rides
over the ribbons of steel.
The famous Twentieth Century
Limited between Chicago and New

The Black Diamond, the Cannon
Ball, the Sunset Limited, the Owl,
the Overland, the Diamond Joe
and other fast ones are just as
easy for him as the little jerk
water line that joins Easyville and
Restful Center in the valley of

without the coin of the realm down
to a science.

catcher Of the Diamond Joe Linn
tied out of Hot Springs that the
railroad gave him a bonus of s25,
and the hobo of the whiteorder
all along the line voted him the
best ever"
His rowing disposition has cost
him the friendship Of his brother
Celestials. He is ostracised by his
