An Episode In Boerdom.
An Afrikander, trekking from
Schuln's Hoo0 to Palapsle, with a
load of biltong, halted by a"f6nteln at
the foot of a kloof. A Voortrekkcr sud
denly appeared from behind n kopje,
waving a vlerkleur.
"Oorlongi" shouted tho Voortrekkcr.
"Dop!" yelled the Afrikander, who
was a man of ready wit
"Proluce it," snld tho Voortrekkcr,
"though 1 am no doppcr."
The Afrikander's vooloppcr, who was
standing on tho dlssclboom munching
mealies, jumped oil and started on a
run toward a krantz. In Jumping n
slult his foot slipped on a klip and ho
fell into a dongn. The other, after
much dop, got into a heated argument
In Taal over tho quickest way to the
nearest dorp. One said ho should take
tho drift over the Bprult and tho other
that ho should pont over tho pan. A
zarp came along through the poort to
the laager, where they should be safo

STERNBERG ON PlAGUE
Surgeon
General Gives Interesting
Facts ol History.
San and Stnllitlon the Active Agents in Stamp-
In Oat the Disease- Untied Sups Has No
Fear-Ranges Hide In Past Year;.
Bubonic -plague,, the Bcourge whoso
ravages are iraccnuje lo-ccniurfs be
fore tho beginning of the Christian era,
and which has a greater mortality rec
ord than all of the wars, was tho sub
ject of an Interesting lecture by Sur
geon General George M. Sternberg, de
livered recently before the members of
tho National Geographical Society In
Washington, Gen. Sternberg was in
troduced to the largo audience by Alex
ander Graham Bell, president of the so
ciety. Tho recent discovery of the disease
on a vessel bringing to the United
States a cargo of coffee, and Its out
break In Manila nnd Honolulu, gave
added Interest to tho lecture. The lec
ture treated with tho history nnd geo
graphic distribution of tho plague, and
Gen. Sternberg touched but briefly
upon tho spread of the dread dlscaso
in our now island possessions.
Recent scientific researches by emi
nent bacteriologists havo disclosed tho
fact that tho specific cause of tho dis
ease Is a minute bacillus, nnd that by
tho use of antitoxin and strict sanitary
measures tho mortality which has al
ways prevailed hitherto can bo great
ly reduced. Gen. Sternberg said he be
lieves thai even should on epidemic
appear In tho United States, which ho
regards as barely possible, It. would be
readily stamped out by the sanitary
measures which would bo enforced.
SUN FATAL TO GERMS.
Tho bacillus of bubonic plague, Gen.
Sternberg explained, could easily bo
killed by a 2 per cent solution of car
bolic ncldi nnd thnt a fow hours' ex
posure to the sun was equally effective.
Tho sun, .the lecturer declared, was
considered"' by all bacteriologist to bo
-tho grcaWk 'it germ-destroyers. -
Gen. Sternberg's lecturo was illus
trated by many interesting pictures
thrown upon a screen by n stcreoptl
con. Somo of the views represented his
toric scenes, when men wore put to
death by horriblo torture becauso It
was thought they caused tho plague to
appear among tho people Slides show
ing tho bubonic bacillus wero also dis
played. After briefly outlining the subject of
his lecture, Gen. Sternberg said, In
part:
"Although bubonic plague has never
prevailed within the limits of the
United States, Its recent nppenranco in
our Island possessions In tho Pacific
has aroused great interest In the dis
ease, and considerable apprehension as
to Its extension In tho future. It has
effected a lodgment In Portugal and In
Brazil during the past year, and nt
least ono vessol has arrived at tho port
of New York with cases of the disease
on board from tho last mentioned
country. Tho question is, therefore, a
very practical ono as to whether thcro
Is any real danger of tho Introduction
and extension of this pestilential mnla
dy of Eastern countries In our own ter
ritory. OF ANCIENT ORIGIN.
"Tho history of bubonic plague ex
tends back to a rcmoto antiquity.
(lieek physicians of tho second and
third century beforo tho Christian era
havo left a record of a pestilential
malady which prevailed in Libya, In
Egypt, and In Syrln, and two Alexan
dra physicians, Dloscorldcs nnd Posel
donlos, who were contemporaries of
Christ, have given a description of the
dlscaso which leaves no doubt as to
Its Identity with tho plnguo of more
recent times. Wo now know that the
germ of tho disease Is found not only
In tho suppornting sores, but also in
tho blood of an Infected Individual.
"During tho Mlddlo Ages epidemics
' continued to occur, but tho nccotints of
tin'... - . .,. ... . ..
ma luuiiro in ino iiruvmiing pesi nro
usually confused nnd unsatisfactory,'
nnd It was not until nearly tho mlddlo
of the fourteenth century that tho hor
rible epidemic known ns tho Black
Death devastated Europo and caused
tlie death of moro than 25,000,000 of its
Inhabitants. While bubonic plague has
usually Invnded Europo from Egypt,
tho Black Death Is believed to havo
originated In Northern China. It is
not known exactly when or where this
epidemic had its origin, but It Is known
to havo reached tho Crimea In 134G and
Constantinople tho following year. Tho
samo year it was conveyed by ships
to several seaports of Italy, both on tho
Mediterranean and tho Adriatic, and
also to Marseilles, on tho French coast
In 1348 It had extended to tho Interior
of these countries and to Spain; also
to England, Holland nnd the Scandi
navian peninsula. Tho following year
it completed tho Invasion of Europo.
DESCRIBEDB AN EARLY WRITER.
"Tho following graphic account of
tho ravages of this pesttlcnco Is by a
writer of tho period:
Wild places were sought for shel-
ter; some went Into ships nnd anchor
cd themselves afar off on the wntcrs.
But the angel that was pouring tho vial
had a foot on the sen as well as on tho
dry land. No place was so wild that
the plague did not visit none so se
cret that tho quick-sighted pestilence
did not discover none could fly that
It did not overtake.
For a time all commerce was In
coffins nnd shrouds, but even that end
ed. Shrift there was nono; churches
and chapels wero open, but neither
priests nor ponltcnts entered all went
to the chnrnel houso. The sexton and
the physician wero cast into the samo
deep nnd wldo grave; the testator and
his heirs and executors were hurled
from the same'eart Into the same holo
together. Fire became extinguished,
as if its clement bad expired, and the
seams of tho sallorless ships yawned to
tho sun. '1 hough doors wero open and
coffers unwatched, there was no theft;
all ofTenses ceased nnd no cry but the
universal woe of the pestilence was
heard among men.
"Thnt tho 'Black Death' of the four
teenth century was, in fact, tho same
dlscaso which subsequently prevailed
In Europe under the name of 'tho
plnguo,' and more recently known ns
'bubonic plague, can scarcely bo doubt
ed. But tho epidemic was character
ized by an unusually large number of
enses of the pulmonary form of the
disease, In which It seems probablo
that tho lungs nro tho primary scat
of Infection, while In the bubonic form
tho bacillus effects n lodgment through
some superficial wound or abrasion,
or possibly through the blto of Insects,
nnd It first Invades tho lymphatics, pro
ducing inflammation of the nearest
lymphatic glands."
Gen. Sternberg then gave an histori
cal account of the prevalence of plagua
during tho fourteenth, fifteenth, six
teenth nnd seventeenth centuries.

Colonel Ruhlcn said this morning
thnt tho Army warehouse, mentioned
Incidentally In this paper In connec
tion with tho Oceanic wharf extension
matter, had been contemplated for
many moutns. At first it wns designed
to erect temporary warehouse accom
modation on tho barncks ground, but
later It was thought best to havo n
permanent warehouse on Federal Gov
ernment ground closo to tho harbor.
This would be convenient Doth for re
ceiving and shipping army stores nnd
material. The matter has been sub
mitted to tho Department at Washing
ton, where tho decision now rested.
Section 2 of Special Orders, Depart
ment of California, under dato of Feb
