The geisha ha si ttiet ter paraIlet the world over, for unlake other women of her class she always retains her native modesty and grace. A auticessful geisha, besides her good looks and graoeful manners, must eiteW geed taste in dreesing teraelt and also; in the errangereente or her hair. Ac- cording to a Japanese idea the lar.monoua colors in her gowns blend in an uneutpassed way. Moreover, every- thing ebout her dress is "smart," Iler • heir is exeluelvely dressed and adorned 4, with kanzashi, jeweled, pins, when she .0an afford, them, and natural flowers, popple,s being th et tavorite. The style of dress off the geisba differs, in eaoh dist riot. She will teacboand play any number of odd and pleasing games, and. thus beguile( your time. It is not alwaya an easy raatter to enter service in a geisba-house. :Be- fore doing sot *the girl must apply in persou for a license at the Metropoli- tan Police Board.

Gras :3 nuoted by hr. Destro-as citing ti case of a huboule epidemic, whic broke out in the convent or St. Jea D'Acre in 1829. In that ease the di ease originated in the opening ot ce tain boxes of clothing which had b loeged to persons who had died of th plague, and had been nailed up fo two years, "Thia doubt, as to the duration o the microbe's life, unfortunately ex :els," 'says the writer in the Rona 'As long as everernana in ignorance o this essettial fact the erection o quarantine barriers against the in troduction of the scourge •cannot la •seriously undertaken. A recent instance of the vitality the bubonic inicroba under favorabl PPndaitions is instanced by M., Dastr m the. outbreak of the plague in Op orto. Portugal, July last. The Cit of Cork came from Bombay, where th restitence has raged so furiously, load ed. with Indian hexap. at is a ntontb' voyage from Bombay to Portugal, bitthe Corp did not go diteet to Portu gat.

In preeisaly the number of yrs necessary to the incubation of the sease under ordinary conditions - on five to eight, M. Destro says -a mber of the stevedores who took e bales of hemp Stem her held were len with the bubonic plague. At st the disetse was not recognized la was not until it had made consider - le progress that Dr. he bac- riologist at the head of Jorge,elm numi- pal hygienic laboratory of Oporto rmally announced., the presence of e scourge.- Another eurious in - anus of the transportation of the ague over many thousand leagues of a is found by the Revue's writer in e case of the two steamship cooks o died at the plague in a London spital October, 1996. Before sail - g from Bombay they each bought in Made° Mop a neckeioth of brit- nt colors.

In 1897 a scientific mission was sent to 13ombay by the stria n - Government to study the borne plague. Dr. Hermann Hul- headed it, and he collected several cimens of the plague microbe and ught them, under proper cultiva- n, to the Anatol -no -Pathologist In- ute of - Vienna for experimental poses.

Dastre, that the piague is spread from rets to other animals and to hu- man beings by the fleas' whieh ere on rate as well as dogs, ; To get the plague one must either be inoculated or breathe the germs, into the loop, where they are conveyed by attaehing themeelves to the nalonte particles of dust that float in the atmosphere, An ',Ascot mob as a floa or a mesquite, Dainre says, van inoculate a person with its bite, as was established by Simond, who shut up insects which had been in contact with an inteeted per- son, in lightly closed boxes in which were perfectly healthy rats and Mice. The rats and mice invariably contract- ed the disease, In the ettSe of a 111.1, - man being, a slight abraaion of the skin is, a sufficient port at entry tar the rmerobe, but the worst form of the disease is when the bacillus Is breathed into the lungs and produees the /nteurizonlac form, Whielt in about tune VMS Mit of ten is fatal, and Is particularly dangerous to those in at - nn the sufferer. M. Destro makes the assertion that this terrible forra of the balm% plague would speedial exterminate the human race if it onee got a good start were it not for the fact that the lite of the mic- robe in .sunlight and In ordinary at- mospherm surroundings is very short, and in consequence, the pheumoniact form of the plague is quite rare as compared with the disease spread through inocalation. RIUTISH DEFEATS IN A 'CENTURY. •••••••• Nothina Compared WIth the Vtetsiles Thnt the Army Itns (ranted. Considering the euraber of wars, big end „little, in which this country has been snigagod sinoe the beginning of the century, our reverses, severe as same ot them have been, are as a mere drop of water in an ocean. of success; and what renders the temporary re- verse of the other day the snore gall- ing is the fact that in nearly all the previous disasters of the ceatury the forces have seldom bean Britons and white men, but generally men of col- or led by British officers. So far as our reversee in Egypt have been le question, we have always not only been outnumbered to a hopeless =tett, but we have also been repre- sented only by a few white officers. Hicks Pasha was aceompanied by the merest hataltill ot Europeans of mixed nationality, and tee massacred garri- son at Sinkat and poor Valentine Baker's forces at Trinkitar were the rawest. of Egyptian levies. Gordon was not only one of a Mere dozen of white men, but he was virtually the only professional soldier present. KHYBER PASS AFFAIR, ,Perhaps the very worst of all our disasters have been in connection with Afghan, campaigns, but in the case of tbe worst ea these, the Khyber Pass affair in 1841, where only one solitary man, a doctor, escaped out of a force of 20,000 men, neaily the whole of the troops were natives, and it was the climate, the mountains, and our own bad generalship that prevailed against us; there was no.ghost of a reflection on the efficiency and bravery of the White rank -and -file. Far worse as a veritable defeat of British troops -a reverse that is the only one compar- able with the recent affair --was the IVIaiwand disaster that took place in July, 1880, and in Ibis General Bur- rows, who, in the opinion of most judges, blUndered grossly, lost nearly 1,400 men out of a total of $,000. This, reverse was counterbalanced to some extent, by Lord Roberts' naarvellous march to his relief -a march that will jive for ever in our history. But then Afghan wars, like those we have en- gaged in in South Africa, have, whilst showing- raixacles of British huoism, been ever attended by an element •of disaster. Except. in the matter of . . immatly bad organization, we had no , sharp. rude shocks of undoubted dis- Is aster in the Ceiratta for our reverses, like our victories, could be made mat - fere of debate, and some rebuffs that we suffered were so allied with super - heroic deeds that the Memory of the , blundering has been dimmed. To some extent this has ma.rked, our military path in South Africa. The Zulus 'practically annihilated two bat- talions of infantry, a battery and some levies at Isandlbwana, but then came ,that magi:111),cent deed of arms when LictItenants Chards and Bromhead, with eighty rnen of the 24th Regiment, kept al bay 4,000 savages, flushed with victory, for hours at Rorke's Drift and swept the tide back from Natal. At Laing's Nek, the Ingogo, and Majuba, the Boers were in vastly superior num- bers in a country every inch of which they knew• intimately, and they took the fullest advantage of their know- ledge. • REPAIRING ATLANTIC CAD.I.E•S Said he, Pretty '-pti Trott 13-ndestsfo.R1 site Rattans Bray give me a MSS.
