Italian Sailors Spread infection II
Boarding House.

Boston.--Asiatic cholera has reach
ed Boston and caused one death, ac
cording to statement given out by
Chairman Durgin, OF the Boston
Board OF Health.
The cholera victim was Mrs. Tam.
assino Mastrodenico, who died at
the detention hospital on Gallups
Island. Thursday. Mrs. Mastrodenico
took into her home as dodgers a
few weeks ago two sailors who were
members OF the crew OF a steamer
supposed to have sailed from an
Italian port. The sailors subse-
quently were taken Ill and disap-
peared. Efforts are being made to
find them.
The children OF Mrs. Mastrodenico
are under observation at the quaran-
tine station, and the board has be-
gun examining the many persons
who may have come In contact with
the woman. Her house, In the con-
gested Italian district, will be thor
oughly fumigated and all precautions
taken to protect the rs families, In
Guiding half hundred children, who
live in the building.
The delay In determining definitely
that the woman died from cholera
was due to difficulty In recovering
the germs OF the disease from the
cultures, the diagnosis being made
possible only yesterday by the re-
ceipts from Washington OF a supply
OF anti,cholera serum with which
tests were made. Mrs. Mastrodenico
slept with a girl before the discov-
cry of her disease. The girl Is de-
tanned and will be closely watched.
A thorough examination Of all the
tenants OF the building where Mrs.
lived will be made by
DIR. John Long and DIR. Allan Nc
Of Washington, who came
here two days ago, when the pres
ence of cholera was suspected.
In addition. four inspectors OF the
Health Department here have been

FOUR COMETS HOVER NEAR Sun
Strange Visitors, Invisible to Unalded
Eye, Perform Antics.

Chicago.-Four comets-every one
of the bashful variety which refuses
to be seen by the unaided eye-are
lowering around the earth, lodging
behind the sun and performing other
antics which are keeping astronomers
busy. Two of the four are brand new
visitors and are more eagerly watched
ON that account. The two others are
periodicals.
One of the visiting comets has
proved a distinct disappointment.
This is the Kiess comet, which was
discovered about July by the Lick
Observatory, and WIS later picked up
by the Yerkes' Observatory at Will
Jams Bay, Wis. Observations made
this morning at Williams Bay showed
that the comet was getting away
from the earth.

NEW REBELLION LOWERS.
Disaffected Factions in Mexico Are
Causing Daily Disorders.

Mexico City.-That the period of
reconstruction soon may be succeed
ed by another revolution is the fear
expressed frankly in many quarters
of the capital. Reports of disorders
assuming in a few cases the magni-
ture of battles are not uncommon
and almost daily the authorities are
informed of the Illustration of plots
against Madero or the constituted
government.
The mastering out of the revolu-
tionary forces is not proving easy.
In practically all cases bands of for
mer rebels have refused to give up
their arms or have demanded more
pay for past services. So anxious is
the government to accomplish its
purposes, however, that except in a
few instances these demands have
been met. To complicate conditions
further, the feeling in the ranks
of the Maderists is not brotherly.

FINE FORESTS BURN
Fires Destroy Valuable Timber IN
Pacific Northwest.
Campers Are Trapped on TrslIs-All
Available Men Impressed to
Fight Flames.

Albany, Or.-Having already swept
over an area three miles long and
one mile wide, a most disastrous
fire, which started on the headwaters
of Thomas Creek, about IA miles
east OF Scio, is reported here to be
rapidly getting beyond control OF the
men now engaged in fighting 1t.
The principle green timber in
which this particular fire is raging
Is owned by the Holland, Briggs &
Avery Timber Company, OF Portland.
A patrolman for this company has
a crew OF 10 men fighting the fire,
which Is In an extensive belt OF
heavy timber and is apt to become
bad fire unless stopped soon.
This makes the second forest fire

other one has been burning several
days southeast OF Mill City. A big

Government rangers, has been fight

Officials of the Curtiss Company
assert that this fire, which swept
out the Curtiss Company's logging
camp No. 6, and greatly damaged
its logging railroad, has damaged
but little green timber and has been
confined almost entirely to an old
burn and logged-off lands.
One Of the fiercest fires In years
is raging in Columbia county, IL
miles northwest of st. Helens. The
area now burning is estimated at
five miles In length and a mile wide
Men who have been fighting the
flames admit that the fire Is beyond
their control and that only a change
in the wind or a heavy rain will
stop the conflagration. This news
was brought to Portland last night
by Mr.. and Mrs. William H. Dolman,
who have been camping for the past
five days at point known as BUNK
