philosophical view of the situation,
and as long as I could not do as 1
liked, I thought I would (as Bob
Ingersoll says) "do as I must."
Yeu see, in my haste I had not
thought of the Spokane Falls or
rather, having seen most all the
great falls in the United States of
America, and being right .on my
vay to the Great Niagara, I thought
the Spokane Falls did not amount
to a hill of beans, but having noth
ing else to do, I strolled down to
the falls this p. m., and I assure
you I was delightfully disappointed.
In all the great falls I have ever
seen not forgetting some great
political party falls I have never
seen anything to equal in piclur
esqueness and grandeur the Spok
ane. As I stood on the image
viewing that stupendous cataract, a
feeling of sadness came over me.
I seemed to realize for the first
time how insignificant science was
to nature (though nature has done
so little for some of us.) I don't
like to writ about these fall3 as
I cannot do them justice. The up
per part of the falls are, us the
Frenchman would say, magnificent.
They are brokn with here a fall,
there an island, there a promontory
and here another fall, they seem to
join in a merry embrace, then go
rolling, tumbling, seething in a
boiling mass, then separate, then
re-embrace, then glide smoothly
along for a short distance, then
make another plunge, over the
lower fail, for a distance of 150 feet
it is one frothing, hissing, foamiirg,
distracted mass of distraction. If
I did not like Spokane for anything
j else, I should like it for its falls.
thebpokane are unlike many oi
the great fails on account of the
nearness of view. While tho Niag
ara falls are on a higher scale, you
cannot approach them so perfectly
as the Spokane. It don't seem to
me now as I ever enjoyed a view
of the Niagaras (and I have seen
them often) with anything like the
satisfaction that I do the bpokane
to-day. I took my pencil and be
gan figuring on the power that
could be generated from that fail,
and after figuring over all the
stationery I had about me I gave
it up. I saw the electric light
nlant that is run bv a tiny bit of
the power and I said to a gentle
man, 1 should think electric light
must be very cheap here. He re
plied, "I should fay so. Why,
when it is any way cloudy here
they use it all day for it is about as
cheap as sunshine any way."
Yours truthfully,

The "Black Death" In China.
The plague, bluck death, has broken
out in China and tho death rate is
reaching from 800 to 1000 per day.
Vessels from Chinese ports arriving in
San Francisco are being fumigated and
every precaution is being used to pre
vent it getting a foothold in this coun
try. A brief history of the plague will
doubtlessly bo interesting reading. The
black death 'is an unfamiliar name to
modern times, but in tho middle ages
it was a current term, never spoken
without a sense of horror. It passed
tinder different names at times, such as
the "great death," tho "bubo plague,"
tbe "plague," and, indeed, it was the
plague of the ancients. - It was the
plague of tho time of Trajan and was
lirst mentioned historically by the phy
sician Rufus, of Ephesus, and for 2,000
years it has paid periodical visits, chief
ly to Mediterranean shores. In tho
fourteenth century it extended all over
Europe and the mortality was fright
ful, fully 25,000,000 of people having
succumbed to the scourge, while at the
same time in the cast 23,000,000 and in
China 13,000,000 perished. In 1050 some
800,000 people were carried off in five
months by the plague in Naples. Lon
don had been visited 'many times by
the disease, when what is known as
the "great plague of London" pre
vailed in 1GG4, and about one-sixth of
the population , of the city was carried
off. In Toulon in 1721 one-third of tho
population perished.
Almost the lost appearance of the
black death in Europe was in 1840 and
1841, in Turkey and Dolmatio. It has
never appeared in the United States.
Our first accurate knowledge of the
scourge dales from its prevalence in
Egypt from 1833 to 1845, where it was
studied by European physieans as care
fully as could be done with the restrict
ed pathological teachings of that time.
Since then there have been outbreaks
in Irak on the Euphrates in 1SC7 and in f
l.a, in is, a at liagaau, in 13. v at otr.er
points on tho Tigris, and again in 18S4
in the samo parts of Mesopotamia. In
1S73 Europe was thrown into a panie by
the appearance of the plague on the
banks of the Volga, but it was mild in
character, and died out spontaneously
in a short time. The various govern
ments sent commissions to the spot to
study and report upon the disorder, but
it had quite disappeared when the
commissioners arrived, and consequent
ly our scientific knowledge of the disor
der was not increased.
We know it to be the most fatal of
all epidemic diseases. The mortality
varies from sixty to ninety per cent, of
those attacked, and occasionally every
person affected dies. Not only human
beings suffer, but rats, cats, dogs, cat
tle and other animals beenme victims
to the pestilence. It is undoubtedly an
acute infectious disease, caused by some
micro organism which has unusually
malignant proclivities, and which mul
tiplies with enormous rapidity within
the body. Death sometimes takes place
in a very few nours. Among the symp
toms which have contributed to its vari
ous designations are enlargement and
suppuration of glands and the forma
tion of carbuncles, whence the same
"bubo-plutrue;" and hemorrhagic spots
and petechia) under the skin, rendering
the body quite dark or oiack, whence)
the origin of the phrase "black death."
Like the1 cholera and smaUpox and
several other contagions diseases, it
haunts the habitations of the poor, the
shiftless, and the squalid. Modern
civilisation in Europe, with its im
proved sanitation of cities aad perfected
water supply, has gradually eradicated
most of the epidemics that so ravaged
medieval peoples, but psulcncc still
lingers among the Orientals, where
everything it demands for its susten
ance and perpetuation is furnished with
prodigal liberality; foul water, decay
ing food, vile habits, filthy houses, an
dean vcrtments, and streets recking
with garbage and ollal. Ss long as
those conditions persist, and unhappily
they do persist oven under the foster
ing care of European governments
having control in these regions, so long
will the cost be a constant menace to
the health of civilized mankind. While
it is hardly probable that the black
death will ever again visit Europe in a
form so calamitous as formerly, still
conditions might at some time become
so favorable for the growth and prop
agation of its germ that it might
cause great havoc in certain continental
cities such as Astrakhan, Constan
tinople, and tho like where sanitation
is scarcely known even bv nm
