NO DANGER OF
BUBON|C PLAGUE
DR.. BRADEN SPEAKS OF DREAD
DISEASE AND ITS RAVAGES
IN SEATTLE.

while there are some cases of bu-
bonic plague in Seattle, the matter is
we'll under hand and l think there is
little danger Of further spread in
that city ard absolutely no danger in
returned from a trip to the Sound yes
terday.
"A fourth case has just broken out
in the Osborn family in Seattle but the
case is we'll in hand and under the va
kima serum treatment it is thought
will be brought about in good shape.
1.-The plague is brought into the
country and spread by rats which in
fest the ships ard docks. The rats
bring it over from the old country and
when they die of the plague, the fieas
on them bite other animals or persons
and these at once become infested with
the disease.
There are but four known cases in
Seattle although it is suspected there
are several more among the Orientals
who are keeping it dark for fear of a
quarantine Every precaution is be-
ing taken to prevent the spread of the
plague and it is thought it will be
brought under control with little more
appearance in the city.
The city has been divided into 80
districts and inspectors for these dis
tricts are killing the rats. The garbage
which was being dumped in the Sound
and which furnished food for the rats
has been ordered disposed of in other
ways and the rats which are not killed
will s.arve to death.
There is absolutely no danger in
this city of the plague and its spread
will be checked in Seattle without
difficulty. l think

A GEORGIAN REFORMATION.

Georgia will be prohibition state
after the beginning of the New Year.
In this connection here is movement
on foot by the judges of the lower
courts who have the disposition of
cases due to indulgence in strong drink
in hand TO handle the drunkard after
4 new faShion-to seek reformation Of
the drink victim by a process hitherto
untried. The new plan is to be an en-
tire reversal of that ordinarily en-
ploNel. Instead of sending the cul-
prit to Jail. to the rockpile or the chain
gang. if he is a confirmed sot he is to
be given the benefi. of first-class med
zeal attendance. after which he will be
furnished with employment where he
can earn living wage and be sur
rounded With influence intended TO lead
him away from the drink habit
It is held by those in authority in

in crested in the reformation of
drink victims and fhe general advance
ment Of the temperance cause. that the
conditions to obtain in the state of
Georgia after the New Year will be
favorable % the success of the plan
outlined, II is argued that hitherto
any such plaI. would not have been
feasible by reason of the constant
temptation. and the chances of working
successfully with the man who is a
confirmed drunkard will be correspond
ingly improved.
As he average man knows of the
drink evil and its consequences. it is
generally recognized that general plans
yet tried for the reformation of the
drunkard have been unavailing. except
they were OF that character which re-
suited in individual determination to

Feeling retrospective. the weather
man gets busy with his records and
dishes UP the following averages for
the past 81 years in this city. This is
not a forecast but only averages
showing what we may expect if the

About 43 degrees will be the normal
temperature, in all probability, al
though in 1900, the north averaged so
degrees and in 1895 showed a mean
temperature of but a. On November
4, 1891, the mercury showed a record
of 49, the highest it has ever been able
to climb in this month. The lowest it
ever reached was on Nov. %, 1885,
when nine degrees below zero were
registered. The average date on which
a killing frost first occurs, is tonight,
although on Sept. %, 1886, there was a
record of an early killing frost.
About 2:0S inches of precipitation.

will probably be about IL days which

far as drunkenness is to be considered
a disease, there is no doubt that the
proposed Georgia experiment will help,
and help in the right direction. JAN

been in vogue pretty generally and FOR
long time without any perceptlple
Improvement that can be directly ac-
credited to them. These have not beeh
a successful corrective, and, beyond
all manner of doubt, they never Will
be. For offenses committed by the
drunkard while under the influence OF
liquor, penal punishment is necessary
and essential to the proper protection
of society; but there is strong pre-
sumption that the kindlier method OF
bringing a.ou. reform in the abandon
ment of appetite and its degradation
will accomplish more than the stern
punishment hitherto administered.
In any event. everyone who is in
terested in problems of this character
will watch the trial Of this experiment
with more than usual interest. 1t at
least conveys the hope that it may sim
plify the problem of dealing with the
drunkard in such fashion as to con-
vert a larger number of that class to
useful members of society.-Portland

Why All Actors Want to Play
Shakespeare.

Why do all actors want to play
Shakespeare? was asked Louis James
the eminent actor recently and his re-
ply was: The big majority of actors
ceptance of the word, and where have
they a greater opportunity to crafty
that desire than in the portrayal OF the
great bards creations? Again where is
! the author who has so literally dis
tributed so many good parts into e9ch
play as Shakespeare? And that is a
very pointed reason why so many act
ors love 10 play Shakespeare, he has
given them all good parts; something
dear to the latter day actors heart.
parts But best reason of all think is
the fact, that the actor who is really
in love with his art is always anxious
to give to the public all that's beauI-
full and poetic, something staple for a
foundation, something upon which his
reputation can always stand, and there
is 10 surer foundation upon which any
actor can sand than upon Shakes
peare. Dramatic literature and art has
as irrevocable a standard of value and
merit to sustain as any of the sister
arts or science The immutable law
that governs the problems of ari.hme-
tic. the measure of time or the science
of astronomy may, with equal proprie-
ty. be applied to the stage and its lit
erature.
The acknowledged standard of dra-
matte literature is Shakespeare and.
as is the case with all students of the
higher things in art and science, who
aim to thoroughly perfect themselves
in the exemplifying and sustaining of
this standard. every actor VINO has his
art AMI profession at heart, aims for
recognition in that field of labor which
is accepted as the highest standard ir.
his profession, and an actor who can

grea. distinction, for the study and in
depreciation of the Immortal bard"

achievement is accepted as a living

months run at the Broadway theater'
in New York, and now, after amusing
Chicago at the Colonial for three
months more, has been sent on tour
and will be presented at the keylor
Grard theater, Nov. 81 in all the en-
tirety of it's metropolitan run. The
company is a big one. and includes the
majority of the original principals. be-
sides a number of famous stage Deau-
ties who are arrayed in the latest and
most fetching motor" garments.
The play represents the last word in
up-to-date theatricals and the very
apex of managerial art. The big feat
ure. the race between two 90-horse-
power racing machines, is said to be
the acme of stage realism. The stage
set .ings are described as entirely novel,
among them being the replica of the
famous hotel scene which represents
the lobby of the famous Marjorie We'll
lington hotel, where, with the excep-
ton of the clerk none but women are
employed or admitted.
The story is built upon the great
Vanderbilt cup race at Mineola, Long
Island, the trophy being presented by
w. K. Vanderbilt. A clever little
country girl keeps everybody busy, and
manages affairs her own way. The
music and dances are said to be un-
usually attractive.

WAILA WALLANS TO BE CON
GRADUATED.

Various financial circles have been
disturbed to such an extent that COVER
nors. including the chief executive of
the state of Washington, have believed
It necessary to declare legal holidays in
order to provide an available means of
protection to some of the banking in
situations in the event of an emergency,
and We, but for the dispatches in the
newspapers, Walla Walla would hardly
have been aware that any financial dis
turbance was going on, as far as the
average citizen is concerned.
The general and universal prosperity
of this particularly favored section of
the country and the continued settled
conditions has main: aimed such an
abiding faith in our institutions that it
would take considerably more than ru-
mors and fiurries from the outside to
cause anything that would resemble
fright or panic in this community.
Wala Wallans are to be congratulate
ed, not only for the integrity and sound
judgment of the heads of the financial
institutions, but particularly for the
sane manner in which the people of the
city ard county have viewed and
treated the situation.
Local banks have been meeting all
demands of their patrons without diff
ficulty, although other cities throughout
the northwest have been issuing cash
iers' checks and clearing house certi-
fiCates. There is perhaps no other
city in the United S ,ates OF, equal size
in which the citizens generally carry IS
large deposits as do the residents of
Walla Walla and yet in this city there
has been no uneasiness or tendency to
follow the foolish habit of running to
the banks whenever a furry is eX-
perienced in other localities.
The manner in which The situation
has been considered in Walla Walla
demonstrates the sound judgment of
her citizens and will have much to do
with maintaining the confidence of the
people throughout the country who
will realize. as never before, that the
Garden City is one of the most SUBJ
stantial of any in the United tSates.
