ing of the bells and the firing of re
cannon announced the triumph of the
revolution. With one accord they rush
ed toward the chamber but their pr 1g-
ress was halted by the multitude ahead
of them.
Impromptu Parades.
AS the crowds melted away after the
session by hundreds and thousands
they fell into irregular marching clubs.
The marchers carried flag and ban
ners of the national green, white and
red, Hthogra phs of Madero, laurel
of the clean sweep for the rebellion:
while hundreds OF them shouldered
staves and poles like soldiers wi.h
rifles.
All Business Suspended
All business was suspended. Every
where windows were shuttered. but
the remonstrants of last night had be-
come harmless celebratcrs.
Women en- Housetops.
On every balcony in the city and
on every house and Office building
firm to be in the street came out to
see the celebration. Many of them
tossed flowers and confetti on the
marching thousands.
Heavy Guard of Mounted Police.
In their widest moments the mem
bers of the various crowds never fail
ed to exhibit their love for the national
nag. Repeatedly during the hours thr
crowd waited in front of the chamber
for the news of Diaz's resignation the
colors were waved by them and every
appearance of the flag was the signal
for applause or lifted hats.
Very Few Outbreaks.
In is the first time in thirty years
that the people of Mexico have had the
opportunity to shout with impunity the
name of their choice for the presiden-
cy. Unused as they are to freedom
from restraint, the older men of the
country regard it fortunate that the
thousands who have been parading
the streets almost continuously for
more than "a hours were not guilty of
worse acts of violence than the few
outbreaks reported. Few acts of ruff
fianisrn were committed today and yet
the police endured more from them
than they have been asked to suffer
from citizens in a. generation.
Police Gave Wide -Latitsde.
Their orders were not to fire exec 9t
under desperate circumstances. Not
even when a young officer was pulled
from his horse and struck in the face
by an angry msreher did the oflirer IN
command of the troops order his men
to shoot. The assailant of the officer
was arrested.

RE is so years old and came
to this country twenty years ago. He
has had the disease for the last ten
years, according to the doctors. An
effort will be nlada to have him trans

New York colony at Ward Island.
Had Skin Disease Ten Years.
The man was admitted to the hos
pital on AIirii 18th for trea tment for a
skin disease from which he has suffer-
ed for the past ten years, but which
he had not treated until two years
ago.
Had No Thought of Leprosy.
There was no thought sat first that
it was case of leprosv, but an in
terne of the hospital reported on April
18th that he saw what he considered
traces of the disease. In order to make
sure what the case was, three cultures
were taken.
Second Culture Showed Disease.
The first resulted in disagreement:
the second found the hospital staff
without a doubt as to the nature of the
disease, but to be positive d third cul-
ture was sent to Johns Hopkins uni
versity, where the finding of the hos
pital physicians was confirmed.

1t is thought to be the first case in
the history of the state and one of
very few in New England. In case the
patient is not accepted by the Massa-

island in Buzzards bay, or by the

have to build the man a home in an

the man had the disease when he came
to this .cou1try, but as the case has
been slow in developing it had not
manifested itself until after he had
