Sir Richard Paget. for many years a

Her marriage to the youngest son OF
the great liberal statesman took place
nearly six years ago. Though she has
given no notable entertainments. this
bright pretty woman often receives

together In the first place. She is
very musical and he is specially fond
Of part singing. And while singing
together they mutually fell in love.

only Of the
eiiecuVad6 Of modern sanitation but
Of the public confidence in the methods
adopted that no general alarm was oo
casioned.
What would have produced positive
panic in times gone by Is now viewed as
q mere matter Of passing interest which
does,not in any way threaten the well
fare Of the community. Bubonic plague,
which was once dreaded as the most dis
astrous Of all disease infections. is now.
thanks to the recent advance In science.
robbed Of all its real terrors. There IS
no longer a mystery regarding its spread
nor anxiety concerning its prevention.
Even If plague cases should be brought
to our shores there would be no more
danger Of the disease spreading than of
any other infectious malady. The con-
ditions Of race, climate. diet and sani-
tary habits are, in this country at least,
entirely against the possibilities Of en-
demic propagation.
This has been abundantly proved in
the history Of the plague invasion Of San
Francisco. The cases, few and far be-
tween, were confined to the Chinese in
Chinatown. Although the latter dis
trict IS situated in the heart Of a great
city, there has been no spread Of the pest
20 the white population.
II is a popularity with plague that
che malady has a special prediction for
the yellow race. and It is only in tho
most severe epidemics in the east that
the white men are attacked. Climatic
and other insanitary influences have
very much to do In explaining such con-
ditions, which are exactly opposite to
those existing here.
II is now well proven that plaeue Is
due to an infectious microbe which at
tacks rats, fleas and flies. and by means
Of the latter agencies finds its way into
the human system Hence the whole
sale destruction Of the vermin in oues-
ton is considered one Of the most ef- !
fective means Of Graduating the dis
ease When prefer precautions are
taken In such directions there is lust as

Whatever, then may be the future de-

ceiyed to the effect that Garland Be
lote was shot and seriously wounded
tonight at Onancock by a negro named
UZzell, said to be the editor of paper
published at that place. The reports
also say that later large numbers of
negroes prepared themselves for riot
ing and went into ambush, that the
white residents of Onancock were en-
tirely unprepared to defend themselves
and were asking aid of Olney, Parks
ley, Accomac, Tasley and other towns,
several Of which had sent help. That
four white men leaving onancock
were made the targets of ,gty shots
fred by negroes from a grocery store
in the suburbs and that it is feared
all four were killed. Special trains
have been ordered by officials OF the
New York, Philadelphia and Norfolk
Railroad to carry aid to the citizens Of
Onancock from PockomOke City, Md.
and Cape Charles Va. There is said in
the dispatch to be great excitement IN
Accomack and Northampton counties

later report is that a negro fired a
number of shots through the windows
OF a train passing through Tasley, but
no one was hit.
