Investigating the Yellow Fever.

Many physicians and sanitarians in
our country are of opinion that the
yellow-fever epidemic which has raw
aged the Mississippi valley might have
been prevented or checked III the be-
ginning of its career, only the knowl-
edge of effectual measures was lacking
Therefore, by the advice of members of
the American Public Health Associa-
ton, the Surgeon General of the United
States Marine Hospital Service has APP
pointed a special commission to investi
gate the scourge. Prof. S. M. Bemiss,
M. D., of New Orleans has been selected
as Chairman of the commission, and all
the gentlemen associated with him are
practical sanitarians. DR.. Bemiss is a
native of Kentucky, a graduate of the
University of New York, and at present
Professor of Medicine in the University
of Louisiana, and editor of the New Or
leans Medical and Surgical Journal.
The great object of the investigation is
to obtain all important facts possible
which have reference to measures of
prevention of future epidemics; but
the first inquiries and observations are
to be directed especially to the cause of
the epidemic of the present season,
leaving more general inquiries into the
history of the yellow fever to be prose-
cuted subsequently. The sixth annual
meeting of the American Public Health
Association will be postponed until the
probable cessation of the epidemic,
having been appointed to commence on
Nov. 10 at Richmond, Va. The atten-
ton of this meeting will be wholly de-
voted to the yellow-fever epidemic and
the results of the Investigations of this
special commission. 1t is believed that
the promptness of the present investi-
CATION may develop most valuable infor-
nation in regard to the prevention and
cure of yellow fever.

Ten Years in the Penitentiary.

George j. Hathaway, the second OF
the trio of Fall River defaulters, was re-
Gently sentenced in that city to ten
years in State prison. A local paper
says she read the story of his fall to the
court, which was as dramatic as any
passage in sensational fiction. 1t dis
closed a pretty state of affairs among
the manufactures, and showed that
SANGER Chace, now in prison on ten
years sentence, was largely to blame for
his present position. Hathaway's story
of his experience with Sanger Chace
was terrible revelation of confidence,
error, and despair. He traced Chaces
motives in elevating him to position
of confidence; in urging him to start the
Border City mills; in compelling him
almost against his will to accept the
Treasurership; in then deceiving him as
to the privileges of a mill President,
which position Chace at that time occu-
pied in the Border City mills; in taking
advantage of Hathaways weak admira-
ton of, and his confidence in, Chace's
pecuniary resources to borrow the mills
money through its Treasurer, until he
had obtained 100000, when there was
no longer any need of concealing his
hand, and then Hathaway was permitted
to see that he was utterly in the power of
this evil genius of Fall River, Sanger
Chace. The grief, agitation, and almost
overwhelming weakness of Hathaway as
he traced his history to this fatal point
were terrible to witness. He said that,
while he was thus sinking his honor and
all prospects OF future success by per-
hitting Chace to help himself to the
funds of the treasury, he was so hard
pressed for money for personal purposes
that he could not sleep at night, and
was often obliged to beg of Chace. al
most invariably without success, the
loan or restoration of few hundred
dollars. His story was, in brief, the
most pitiful appeal man could possibly
make. Taught to regard Chace as i'm
maculately pure in his habits, high and
in his morals and business
integrity, he asked, with tears and sobs,
if it was any wonder that he should al
low him as President to take out of his
hands the first fatal $4,000 which sent
the speaker to his ruin, and brought
him where he was to-day. He claimed
that DIR. Durfee and his son knew all
about the transaction; that for twenty
years Chace and the two Durfees lived
without any regard to their incomes.

Eleven Days without Food.

The matches on the steamer City of

A DueI With COwhides.

One of the most remarkable duels ON
record occurred in this place to-day
Virginia has been famous for all kinds
of affairs of honor, but it remained for
Hon. A. Hackett and Col. H. w. Krou-
heimer to inaugurate system of duel
ing up to this time unknown to the
chivalrous Southerner. Hackett was
until recently the editor-in-chief of the
Mecklinberg Democrat, and Krou-
heimer his associate, and now editor-in-
chief. The misunderstanding cul-
minating in this affair of honor grew
out of an article written by Hackett
whilst editor of the Democrat, in favor
of the imitation of the currency, which
his associate bitterly opposed and de-
nounced in strong terms. Hackett, on
this account, resigned his position on
the paper, and in the last issue Krou-
heimer, in caustic and severe article,
babe his late associate farewell. To-day
it was known on the street that the lat
ter had expressed his determination to
cowhide the former on sight. Late in
the evening Krouheimer was walking
down the street, accompanied by his
brother Benjamin, when he was met by
Hackett, also accompanied by one of his
brothers. Hackett at once made the at
tack, III. Hackett and II. w. Krou-
heimer using cowhides, VIM. Hackett
the butt end of a large pistol, and Ben
Krouheimer knife. 1t is generally I'M
derstood that Krouheimer got the best
of the cowhiding, but he received sew
eral severe licks over the head with the
hammer of the pistol. The cowhiders
we're both severely injured.-Boydton
