Lig 212-214 EliPaso Street. NO JUAREZ QUARANTINE. The Authorities Across the River Agreed To Adopt Vigorous Mea sures To Stamp Out Contagious Diseases. The board of health held a meeting Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock at the office of Dr. Vilas with the following present: Dr.

Vilas, Dr. Race, city physician, Dr, Yandell, C. N. Buculer and C. R.

Morehead. Dr J. A. Samaniego, Mayor Valentin Onate and Ex-mayor E. Provencio of Juarez were also present.

The board met pursuant to the call of Dr. Yandell who had advised that quarantine regulatipns be established against Juarez. After the meeting had been called to order by Dr. Vilas, Dr. Yandell state quarantine officer (and assistant, city physician, stated that he had visited Juarez and made careful inquiry concerning the situa tion tbere ana baa been miormea Dy reputable American residents that no precautionsto-prevent the spread of the disease were being taken by the authorities.

He said he found a well developed case on one of the principal thoroughfares near Hotel Porfirio Diaz, and no warning of any kind had been posted, but people were permitted to come and go at will. Dr. Race took issue with Dr. Yandell on this point. He said he had visited Juarez since receiving the communication from Dr.

Yandell, and he knew positively that Mayor Onate was doing everything in his power to carry oat the agreement entered into, and that he had eeen men out distributlcg placards of warning, and that one had since been placed at the point mentioned by Dr. Yandell, near the Hotel Pofirio Diaz. He asked Dr. Samaniego if they had the same trouble in Juarez as here, where the people hid themaway from the health officers. Dr.

Samaniego said that-some of their people did this and it was very difficult to locate them. Dr. Yandell said that Juarez was badly in neei of a house to bouse inspection to locate hidden cases. He declared-thatfugitive smallpox-patients from El Paso had been allowed to take refuge in Juarez without opposition from the authorities. Mavor Onate agreed to appoint in spectors immediately which CKueed Dr.

Vilas to remark that the Juarez authorities seemed inclined to do the right thing and he could, therefore, see no need of a quarantine. Judge Buckler concurred In this opin ion. He said, however, that tho board was responsible for the health of the city and would not hesitate to establish a quarantine against Juarez if there was no other remedy. He wanted to impress upon the Juarez authorities that the time for vigorous action had arrived. Dr.

iVilas stated that the Juarez health authorities were invited to at tend any or all meetings of the El Paso board and that no action would be taken regarding the quarantine unless they were invited to be present. Dr. Yandell said be would make visits of inspection to Juarez from time to time and would be pleased to have some of the officials accompany him on his rounds. The Juarez visitors then withdrew and after the board voted to recommend to the council that an am bulance be purchased to convey pa tients to the pest house, adjournment was taken. Alvarez Died.

The man Leon Alvarez, who was wounded by an unknown hunter at Anthony a few days ago and brought in on the Santa Fe on Saturday morning and taken to the hospital, never recovered enough from the shock of the wound to have an operation performed. Lhe aoctor in charge ol the case worked with him all day Saturday to try to prepare him for the operation. but Alvarez was too far oooe to be able to stand it, and about 5:30 he passed away. His wife and family were with him to the end. Alvarez was buried this morning at ten o'clock in Concordia cemetery.

6t BASS HOYT iiiiiiiiiiiiiiuuiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiuiaiaiuuuaiiuuuiiiiuiuiiiiuc LETTER FROM MARRIOTT. Member of Jones' Company of Im-munes Writes From Santiago. Last summer Tom Marriott, a young Englishman, who was then residing in El Paso, enlisted in the Hood regiment of Immunes and went to Santiago to fight for Uncle Sam. The other day Park. Pitman, county court clerk, received the following letter from him: Holguin, Cuba-Mr.

Park W. Pitman. Dear and Brother: I wish to thank you all for the unexpected pleasure I received from our lodge; it was very gratifying aod I feel the honor and. I am sorry I didn't have the chance to slaughter innumerable Spaniards and give a practical illustration of patriotism. But, Park, what with the bad Cuban niggers and pretty Cuban eenorl- tas I doub.

if I have remembered enough to get in the lodge, but I guess you can square that when I return These "poor oppressed Cubans" (tbat is the Ignorant portion) an just raising hell. They wish to rule themselves right away, yet in this rich country wnere anything will grow without cul tivation they cannot make a living for themselves but strut around with pistol ana macnete strapped on, oegging ne-, cessities or are iromthe American gov ernment. This island is sure enough a wreck. Fine plantation bouees and sugar mills: yes, and whole villages de stroyed. Vegetation is so luxuriant that since three years there is no trace left of what were fine roads and cultivated fields.

The grass grows as high as my head when on a lb-band horse and is so thick tbat if cattle were turned loose they would die for the want of exer cise. 1 am detailed to command a party overland from Songo to 'Holguin about 250 miles and tne first American expedition to go through, but then an El Pasoan is- equal to any taeic oi that kind Jones is well and recommended for a captaincy and your bumble servant for a hrst lieutenancy. I wish to take out my papers, Park. Please let me know the easiest way I can go about it. I would like to take tbem out right away if it is possible.

I enclose you a Cuban peso the only one I have ever found. Remember me to all friends and believe me ever to remain. Yours Fraternally. Tom Marriott. Remember me kindly to J.

Connors. Will Ten Eyck, G. Parker and others. T. Marfa Jottings.

B. Sheridan, well known in El Paso and formerly a customs inspector under Collector Magoffin, has recently been appointed deputy U. S. marshal at Sbafter. Sheridan was an old union soldier and a somewhat famous republican politician in El Paso.

Marfa. the capital and principal city of Presidio county, wants a dairy. The children tbere are crying milk, milk, milk, but there is no milk, and they sigh for a milk wagon with a pump painted on one side. It has been suggested that five or six of the El Paso dairymaids put in a bid for supplying the Marfanians. A fashionable dress maker or modiste just from Paris also much needed.
