The death of Miss Clara Maas from yellow fever, caused by the bite of an Infected mosquito during the expert- menta of the Government physicians at Havana, has almost broken the heart of her mother, who lives at No. 344 Main street, East Orange, N. J. The dead girl wan twenty-four years old and was soon to have married u prominent New York buatness man whom she met in Havana, Miss Sophia Mau 4 for Havana pall Aug. 21, She reached that port yester- day, only to learn tyat her sister had died a few hours before. She is a trained nurse, and had hurried to Ha- vana to care for her sister, who she knew was iI, and she had accepted a Position from the Government at $0 a month. Misa Clara Maas graduated from the Newark German Hospital as a trained nuree and in 15% became a Red Cross nurse. She worked in the camps at Jacksonville and Savannah, and later nded the wounded and sick on the battlefleld of Santingo. Then she went to Manila, and several months ago turned to Cuba, She received $10, the usual fee, for permitting Infected mosquitoes to bite her arm. Six times she submitted tu the test without ifl effects. On Aug. 13, while assiating in the experiment on two other gubjects, she was accidentally bit- ten. Ina short time the dreaded diseane set in and was particularly virulent. She died before the $100 fee that sie had received had been sent to her mother, to whom she had promised it in a letter dated early in August. The body has been buried in Havana. Her alster will probably return home at once. err WOMAN STRANGELY HURT. Knocked Down by Wagon in Crowded Ferryhouse—Leg Broken.
