Vaccination Prevents Disease.
From page 3 of the annual report
of the Bureau of Health for the Philip
pine Islands for 15)07, the following was
taken:
"The Provinces of Cavlte, Batatas,
Cebu, Rizal, La Lacuna, Bataan and
La Union, where heretofore there have
been approximately 6,000 deaths annual
ly from smallpox, have not reported one
death from this disease. In all, there
have been over 2,000,000 vaccinations
performed, the direct effect of which
was that many lives were spared and
thousands of persons were saved from
being disfigured for life, and at the few
places at which smallpox did break out
it made no headway."

CARLOTTA AND NAPOLEON.
How the Crazed Empress' Curae Came
to a Fulfillment.
General Henrico d'Alinonle was from
1803 to ISimi the aintKiHundor or Km
peror Mnxlmlllntf of Mexico to the
court of Napoleon 111. The most Inter
esting nud most pn Miotic eplwnlv to
which D' Almonte whs ii witness ill id
which is vividly, tiearrlhetl in his
memoirs l the meeting hetwoen the
scheming French eiiiHror and Mail
mlllan's wife, the. beautiful and ambi
tious Carlotta, who shortly before the
catastrophe at Queretaro bad come to
Paris to invoke Napoleon's aid for the
tottering throne, of her husband. But
Napoleon III., who for bis own per
fidious purposes had by promises and
allurements Induced Maximilian, then
archduke of Austria, to accept the "re
stored" throne of Montezuma, faith
lessly abandoned the unfortunate
prince to his cruel fate as soon ns he
realized his schemes to be impractica
ble. Even at ber arrival In Paris Carlot
ta's mind was already in such a high
state of Irritation that It" was deemed
advisable to have General d'Almonte
at her side during the meeting with Na
poleon, which took place In the em-,
press' apartments at the Grand Hotel
de Paris.
What lends special interest to that
Interview is the fact that the empress,
crazed by desperation and fear for her
husband's safety aud by Napoleon's
unsympathetic attitude, hurled a curse
at the latter which In time was Indeed
fulfilled to the very letter.
"The empress," says General d'Al
monte, "plcnded, partly on her knees
and In the most beseeching terras, with
the stony Frenchman to no avail. Then
it was that I witnessed the most har
rowing and dramatic scene of my life.
Frantic with grief and excitement, the
empress, with drawn mouth and flash
ing eyes, sprang to her feet, extending
both her hands toward the retreating
emperor.
" 'Leave me,' she yelled in a voice
which cut through me like a sword
leave me, but go laden with my curse
the same curse that God hurled at
the first murderer. May your own
house and throne perish amid flames
and blood, and when you are humbled
In the dust, powerless-and disgraced,
then shall the angel of revenge, trum
pet into your ears the names of Maxi
milian and Carlotta r "
At Sedan and by the revolution In
Faris Sept 4, 1870, the unhappy Cftr
lotta's curse was fulfilled to the letter.

Strength of Rings.
' Some elaborate calculations, backed
by experiments, have been made In
England to determine the breaking
strength of rings. It appears that a
ring of ductile metal, like malleable
Iron, will be pulled out into the form
of a long link before it breaks and that
the ultimate strength of the ring is
virtually Independent of lis diameter.
Fracture finally occurs as the result of
almost pure tension, and the resistance
to breaking Is a little less than twice
that of a rod of the same cross section
subjected to a straight pull. As the
ring Increases In diameter there ap
pears to be a slight approach toward
equality, with double the strength of
a bar. Thus a three inch ring, made
of three-quarter inch iron, broke at
nineteen and one-half tons, a four Inch
ring at nineteen and nine-tenths tons
arid a six inch ring at twenty tons, the
strength of h bar of the same mntnl
being ten and one-half tons.
