sisted desperately. and when the La Tou-
raine steamed away the woman with her
little flock of children and an angry hus-
band, was still standing on the pier.

WILLEMSTAD, Curacao, August II
The government of Curacao yesterday re-
moved the quarantine that was declared
against Trinidad some time ago because
of the bubonic plague. This step was
taken in spite of the receipt of private
letters from Port of Spain declaring that
archaeological examination of rats
there showed the existence of the plague
among the animals.
1t is considered particularly hazardous
because should the plague make its ap-
pearance here it would complete the ruin
alton of the colony and make more diff
cult and complicated any possible action
on the part of the Dutch government
against Venezuela.

Wagon Smashed by Electric Car.

One Of Geon,e L. Warmers bakery
wagons driven by Daniel Lillis was struck
by an electric ear near Carl ;. Hopkins 5
place on Western avenue last Saturday
afternoon and demolished. In fact de-
molition was so complete that the re-
mains OF the vehicle had to be literally
shoveled into cart Neither Lilis nor
the boy who was riding with him was
hurt in the collision, although Lllllss 5
head came in forcible contact with q tele-
phone pole while the wagon was dlsinte-
grating. Iillis was driving across the
tracks towards the house of Mr.. Hopkins
when the accident occurred. He claims
that he looked both ways but saw no ear
until the cart was sauarely across the
rails, when one suddenly appeared at the
brow of the hill few rods away. Mo-
torman Elmer johnson and Others VINO
were on the ear are of the opinion that
the driver was responsible, for the accl,
dent. the damage of which amounts to
about 500. The fact that the tracks were
partially covered with leaves no doubt
made it difficult for the motorman 70 stop
the car as quickly as would otherwise
have been possible
