Her ohief duty Is to amuse. A geisha

ettain her ,guests, aecording to their
tliood. A witty geisha, one who is a
°food talker, pretty; and. graceful, will
o1 lack employment at any time and
ls'neraliy makes a very good living.
While it is not at all necessary for
far to arouse mirth, her object must
5 to beguile the time that is irksome
..•to her guests. Thus it often happens
iN that one feeling depressed will send
'y far a geisha' girl• She will have taut
enough to study the tempetr of ,per
patron. It might be necessary for: her
'to laugh and chatter, sung and dance,
file. On the other hand, she need only
talk very gently and sympathetically
td him or to engage him ,n some in-
teresting conversation, or she may not
have to dor more than merely' by her
presence remove the sense of teneiL-
neas and -depression. The more mag-
netic her personality, Lhe more like-
ly- is abet to suceeed. She studies her
roles t horoughly, amdr seldom is at a
loss. lo fact, for lull 000nsions she
usually has a little programme of her
own, which her guest or patron never
would have suspected, for the geisha
9 a natural actress. Her taste in
ess is exquisite and her movements
comparable in grace. her
is a delight
erely to watch an accomplished
eisha as she moves, and few would
aspect ,that every movement she
Ores is the result of many hard
hours of study. Of course, f speak
here of the more accomplished and re -
finned, geisha, for by no. means do we
find the geisha girl in general alto-
gether obnt'ming.
The geisha hast not her parallel the
world over, for unlike other women of
her class she always retains her natiee
•modesty and graze. A successful
geisha, besides her good looks and
graceful manners, must show good
taste in dressing herself, and also in
the arrangements of her hair. An -
cording to a Japanese idea the har-
monious colors in her gowns blend in
an unsurpassed way. Moreover, every-
thing about her dress is "smart.' Her
hair is exclusively dressed and adorned
with kanzashi, jeweled pins, when she
can afford thorn, and natural flowers,
poppies being thea favorite. The style
of dress off the geisha differs in each
dist riot. She will teachi'and play any
number of odd! and pleasing games,
a.ld thus beguilel your time.
IL is not always an easy matter to
enter service in
a geisha -house. Be-
fore e
fore doing sot the girl must apply in
f+� person for a license at the Metropoli-
tan Police Board. Here she is warned
of the temptations of the new life she
wishes to enter. IP she still persists
she is then) put through an examina-
tion, and .should she trip in the catech-
ism the license is refused.
The class of geisha called the, taki-
wnke has bolo money and ability, but
being unfamiliar with locality and
rules pertaining to the profession, she
puts herself in; charge of s• geisha of
established reputation, and, agrees to
share with hart her earnings.
The very young geishas aro called
the bang-yoku, on, half -Lees, and they
are permitted to charge bat hull that

erally run between the ages of 13 to
15 years, and are bound to serve from

all the giesha accomplishments. By
the time they have learned all the
arta of the profession, their time ex-

BUBDNISPLAGUE DANGERS

CULTIES OF DISINFECTION.
11. Destro Dentes That the Plague Germ
Isles A fycr High 1 Days to the Open Ale
In 011tcr Than Indian Atmospheric
Cnedlttons -Of I leg Inutnnees of longer
Llfe.
The position taken by the New York
Board of Health in refusing to permit
the docking ,of the bubonic plagued-
infested steamship J. W. Taylor or
the landing of her cargo, of coffee at
New York, is sustained by the con-
clusions reached in an article in a re-
cent number of the Revue des Deuz
11londes. The writer of this artiole,
M. Destro, has made an exhaustive
study of the bubonte scourge on the
basis of the latest soientifio data ob-
tainedduring the recent outbreak pf
the disease in India and China and he
devotes particular attention . to the
manner in which the' bacillus is con-
veyed into the human system and to
the manner in which it is transported
froni ono country to another..In the
discussion. of this last branch of the
subject his remarks might be taken
to apply to the case of the Taylor.
M. Desire, denies that the life of the,
plague bacillus is only eight{ days and
that at the expiration of that time
all danger of infection is past. The+
great uncertainty as to the length of
Limo in which the bacillus will retain
Rs vitality li i ao

one of the great difficulties i` the'
s t d ff oulliea n
of gway

the disease, ho says. It true that
under certain conditions
THE GERM QUICKLY DIES.
Sunlight is particularly fatal to it. Ac-
cording to the Japanese scientist, Kit-
usoto, one hour's exposure to the ac-
tion of the sun will destroy it. When
it becomes dried in the atmos-
phere, even when not exposed; to the
sun, it soon loses its power of propa-
gation, or, in other words, its viru-
lence, and experiments made by the
scientific commission sent by Ger-
many to study the plague in India,
showed that under favorable atmos-
pheric conditions in that climate the
longest life of the microbe was eight
d
-Unfortunately, M. Dastre says, this
statement of the German scientists
applied only to exposure to the at-
mosphere and to the climatic condi-
tions of India. In Europe observa-
tions show that the midrohe will re-
tain its death -dealing power for eigh-
teen days, and that it will retain life
for .a month -that is, of course, in the
atmosphere, but when not exposed to
the direst action of the sun's rays.
When the microbe is wrapped) in lay-
ers of cloths or imbedded deep to the
dark and more or less moist parcels of
a ship's cargo, the duration: of its life
and power for evil is wholly uncer-
tain. The only thing positively known
is thatit may be, very long. 1 Grassi
is quoted by M. Dastre as citing the
caseof a bubonic epidemic which
broke out in the convent of St. Jenn
.D'Acre i,n 1829. In thee case the dis-
ease originated in the opening of cer-
tain boxes of clothing whiele had be-
longed to persons who hnd died of the
plague, and had been nailed up for
two years.
"This doubt, as to the duration of
the ntiosobe's lifo, unfortunately ex-
ists,"
x-iata "
says the writer in the Revue..
"Aa long as we rennin in ig uoranoe on
this essential fact the erection of
quarantine barriers t;gninst the in-
troduction of the scourge cannot be
seriously uncertain -no
A recent instance of the vitality of
Um bubonic microbe under favorable
condnitions is instanced by M4 Destro
in the outbreak of the plague In Op-
orto, Portugal, July last. The City
of Cork came from Bombae, where' the
lresl ileacs has raged so furiously, load-
ed with Indian hemp, It is a month's
voyage from Bombay le Portugal, but
111e Corp did not go dirent to Portu-
gal. She went first to London, re-
maining there several days, and it
was between
St`s WIdI'iKS AND TWO MONTHS
from the time she was loaded i,n Born -
bay before she discharged her cargo
In Oporto. In precisely the number of
days nesees5ory to the Ineubation of the
disease under n I u do ordinary lcondi rions -
tr'Onl five to right, M. Desire says --a
number of the stevedores who look f
the bales of hemp from her hold were c
down with Lha bubonic plague. At t
.01
first the disease was not recognized.
It was not until it hnd made consider-
able progress tihat Dr. Jorge, the bac-
teriologist at the heat) of the nunli-
citlal hygienic laboratory of Oporto,
formally announced the presence of
the soourga. Another 'ur:0118 in-
stance of the transportation of the
plague over many thousand leagues of
sea is found by the Revue's writer In
the case of the two steamship cooks
who died of the plague in a London
hospital in October, 1990. Before :mil-
ling from Bombay tbey each bought in
a I•ISndoo shop a neakoloih of bril-
liant colors. When they reached
London they decorated themselves
with their purchases, which they
had not worn until then, and started
out to stun the town with the gor-
geous neckwear. Five days later both
were down with the plague and both
cases proved fatal, though, owing to
the perfection of London hospital
management, the disease did not
spread.
Si ill another curious outbreak of the
disease, M, :Dastre says, was that
which broke out in October, 1808;. in a
Vienna laboratory, and was stamped
out in a nearby hospital before it
spread to the city: In 1897 a 'scientific
commission was•sent to -Bombay by the
Austrian Government to study the
bubonic, plague. Dr. Hermann Hul-
ler headed it, and he collected several
specimens of the plague microbe and
brought them under proper
cultiva-
tion, to the them,
In-
stitute of Vienna for experimental
purposes: For nearly a year he con-
ducted, these experiments with rate for
victims. One Clay the young man
who had the oars of the inoculated rat s
fell 111. His ailment seemed to be an
attack. of influenza complicated with
pneumonia. It had none of the out-
walrfl characteristics h
of t o bubonic
plague of Bombay, and Dr. Muller was
deceived at first, yet it was none the
less the bubonic plague r
h a
pure and
sample, end in its most deadly form -
the form which has now Dome to be
known as the pneumonic. Three days
after he was attacked, on Use 28th of
October, the man died.
By this time Dr. Muller had fully
reoogaized the nature of the disease.
He attended his unfortunate servant
to the last, and took every precaution
he knew to prevent the spread of the
disease. He personally disinfected the
sick room and every article that had
been anywhere near the patient.
BUT HE WAS TOO LATE.
Ono of the nurses who had been in
attendance upon the patient was
stricken. On the following day an-
other nurse and a sister of charity
wbo had visited the siok room were
down On the 31st of October, tbo
third day after the first patient's
death, Dr. Muller himself was attack -
.ed. The moment he recognized in
himself the fatal symptoms Dr. Muller
shut himself up in his room to die
alone. While he still had strength
he wrote farewell .letters to his family,
directing that his body be burned to
avoid all danger of spreading the dis-
ease. lie also requested tbot a priest
stand in the street before his open
'indow and give him absolulion. Two
nays after he was attacked he died.
One of the nurses died soon afterward.
The other nurse and the sister of
charity recovered. dere the minia-
ture epidemic stopped.
It is well established, according to
M. Destro, that the plague is spread
from rats to other animals and to hu-
man beings by the fleas; which are on
rats as well as dogs. ; To get the
plague one muat.oither be inoculated
or breathe the germs into the lunge,
where they aro conveyed by attaching
themselves to Lhe minute particles of
dust that float in 1115 atmosphere. An
inaeel, such as a flea or a mosquito,
M. Metre says, ono inoculate n Person
n
with its bile, as was established by
Simond, who shut up insects which had
1
brei in content with an infected per-
son in lightly closed boxes in whicls
were perfectly healthy rata and mice.
Tho rats and mite invariably contract-
ed the disease. In the case of a hu
man being, a slight abrasion of the
skin is a sufficient port of entry for
the microbe, but the worst form of
the disease is when tihe bacillus la
breathed into the lungs and produces
the pnrumoniao form, which in about
nine cases otlt of ton is fatal, and is
particularly dangerous to those in at-
tendance on the sufferer. 131. Dastre
mikes the assertion that this terrible
form of the bubonic plague would

The reoont death of Capt. Samuel
Trott,whose reputation es a eons
mender in the cable service extends
to all English-speaking countries,
serves to call attention, to the won -
(Jarful perfection to which cable -lay -
Mg and cable -repairing has been
brought within the last -twenty years.
It was said of Capt. Trott that he

in laying en Atlantic oable was over-.
taken by a storm, and had to abandon
a Length 0f cable worth many thous-
and .dollars, One day, many years.
afterward, Capt. Trott, who happened
to be in the locality, thought hs might
as well pick the cable up. He stop-
ped his fillip, grappled and recovered
the broken end, and steamed on to-
ward home within an hour. On ar-
riving in port he presented the cable
to the company to whLcth' it belonged,
declining to acoept any remuneration
for his work. 11 used to be consider-
ed absolutely impossible to pick up
cables during the months from Octo-
ber to May, but Capt. Trott proved the
error of this idea. In the middle of
the winter of 1876 he sailed from Lon-
don to Nova Scotia, repaired the direct
cable in a gale of wind and a blinding
snow storm, and was back in the
Thames again in'lide of thirty-five
days.. As he steamed up the river the
whole of the amazed marine popula-
tion, who had seen him go to sea, turn-
ed out to cheer hire.
