that fact. In one conversation lat
terly with the doctor he expressed
a wish to resign his cadetship and
go. home, but the doctor sue
ceeded in persuading him not to
do SO, telling him to remain in
the hospital until he was strong
enough to travel, and then to lose a
years time and go to the Arkansas
hot Springs. This also preyed on
MS mind toa certain extent. Last
evening the cadets had an enter.
tainment, and some of the conya.
lesce4ts in the hospital went to it
and returned about 1890, at which
hour some of them saw Todd IN
his room. That was the last that
was seen of him. He stood at the
head of the third class, and the
teachers say he was a very bright
boy. His classmates all speak highly
of him.

even beyond these limits severe
outbreaks of the disease have oc-
CURED, and upon our coast as far
north as 43 degrees of latitude,
epidemics of yellow fever have been
observed, but less frequently within.
recent years. Philadelphia has suf-
fered from these visitations, but to
no great extent since 1906. In
1853 there was an outbreak of the
disease on July 18th, causing, be.
tween that date and October, 1913
deaths. In 1870 the disease APP
peared at the Lazaretto the latter
part of June, causing a number Of
deaths there and several in the
city, the total number amounting
to IS. So it appears that this city
has been comparatively exempt
from the disease since 1905.
We know from the past that fa'
vorite spots first selected by the
disease, and in fact where 1T has
mainly prevailed, have been in tina
portion of the city lying close t.
the Delaware river front. Thus, il
1889, the fever broke out in thu
vicinity of the dock, near the foo
of Spruce street, where the settle
ment had originally commenced
and near the river, at several point
of which dwellings we're erected, Il
1747 the disease originated and wa
mostly confined to the southern
parts Of the city, below the draw
bridge, at a short distance from tn
river. In the next epidemic, tina
of 1862, the original seats Of tn
disease were the sugar.house wharf
situated below South street, and th
vicinity of the new market, extend
ing to Front and Water street,
Even more evident was its origi
about or near the wharves in 179;
when the early cases occurred i
Water street, and for some time
was almost invariably traced tc the
locality. ,s

d TIRED OF LIFE.
The Supposed Suicide Of a Bright
Boy In the Third Glass at
West Point.

A special dispatch from West
Point, N. Y, says: The officers and
cadets in this military department
were shocked this morning over the
announcement that Cadet James
Todd had probably committed sui
eide. What led to the belief was
the finding Of three letters in his
empty room at the hospital, one of
three pages addressed to DR.. Irwin,
another Of twelve pages addressed
to Todd's mother, Mrs. Susan B.
Todd, Of Indiana, and another ad-
dressed to two of his classmates.
The one addressed to DR.. Irwin
speaks Of the writer's illness in de-
tail, and argued that inasmuch as
the great length Of time that must
ensue before he recovered would
greatly impair his standing in his
class, he saw no prospects for the
future; that he would only be a
burden upon his friends, and that
nothing but woe and grief seemed
to be before him. Therefore, he
said, before he would be missed his
body would be found in the Hudson.
The letter to his mother was full Of
tender words. He tells her that
he sees no chance Of recovery from
u scrofulous disease which affected
both his head, throat and eyes.
The letter to his classmates was
brief, and pertained to petty bust
ness matters only. In this letter he
did not even hint his intended sui
eide, except that in telling them
where they could find some cuffs
and collars he adds. "You use
them, for l shall never need them
again."
When DIR. Irwin found these let
tiers, the case was at once reported
to Major General Schofeld, and
search was instituted for the body.
Some of those engaged in the searci
went along the shore north an(
south of the steamboat landing.
Others went 10 the north dock ant
beyond, and another party flee
along "Flirtation Walk" to visi
the rocks which jot out along tht
: river front. The last-named part.
' found, upon the rocks of Gee,i
,Poiht, Todd's coat, trousers ha
+ and shoes, as carefully piled in tw'
y heaps as though he had taken then

A few points relative to the his

and the usual prophyIactic meas
ares adopted, briefly stated, may
not be out Of place at this time,
since We are considering what addi-

prevent its introduction into the
city. A clear comprehension of a
few important facts will assist us
very materially in intelligently de-
Vlslng certain whether yellow fever
was first developed in Africa or the
Wcst India Islands, but as far as
our knowledge goes, the Antilles
have long been the homo OF the dis
