Sun Stroke.
\ medical ftiend of ours suggests that |
there is no better way known among men |
, of avoiding the effects of the sun than by |
} placing Il wet handkerchief in the hat. A |
cheaper preventive could not be devised, |
while its adoption as precauton will save |
health and even life.
Fire.
An alarm of fire was sounded on Sunday |
, evening about 0 o'clock from the double |
tenement, two,story building, Nos. l4l and
143 Carondelet street. The fire originated |
among a lot of old papers and rags near the
division between the two kitchens. The
tiremen were on hand promptly and extin-
guished the fire before any great damage
was done. About three weeks ago fire oc
Cured similarly, but was extinguished with
I out any alarm, The premises were occd-
pied respectively by Mrs. Overdeer as a
boardinghouse, and by Mrs. Carter as a
dwelling. The latter we learn was insured
, for $500 in the National Insurance COM
, pany. The property belonged to Mrs. Green.
, No cause is assigned for the origin Of the
. fire.
The rain which fell in torrents yesterday
: noon discharged such a volume OF wa.er
c that it flooded the streets in the rear part of
| the city so much that foot travel resulted in
! | navigation below the knees. w re the
' draining machines in good working order
I this need not occur, and persons residing on
the streets rear of Dryades would not be
:, house-bound for several hours for want Of
l. an unhidden sidewalk for their foo step7.
