The New York Times notices some OF the
curiosities Of yellow fever. At the Brazilian
port of Pernambuco, in 1872, the ships In the
harbor were throwing their dead overheard
by dozens, while not a case occurred on shore.
In Rio de Janeiro, a few years later, many Of
the residents remained In town during the
sickly season. Strange to say, the yellow
fever did not come that year; but when the
people who had gone out OF town returned,
almost all OF them were attacked violently by
the disease and many OF them died. The
Times thinks the most curious case OF all Is
that of the Island of Jamaica, where the
disease prevailed for years, but where during
the last half century 1t has not been known.
Yellow fever Is around it on every side, in
Cuba and In San Domingo but In Jamaica 1t
is unknown.

Jay Gou1d's new telegraph company seems
TO mean business When it's organization
with capital Of $1o,ooo,0o0 was announced
last spring, it was regarded as movement
intended to affect Western Union stock In
the bear interest. The company, however,
went to work In earnest, and In q few days
will have a completed line Of wire from New
York to San Francisco, with branches in all the
principle centres OF the North. Taking adj
vantage OF the law passed by the last Con-
gress, 1t is now said to be the intention Of the
management to cover the whole country
with network Of wires and enter into COM
petition with the Western Union atall points
It Is to the manifest advantage Of the busi-
ness public that this should be done. Tele-
graph rates will never be reduced within
reasonable limits until there Ia an active COM
petition between rival companies. It Is too
early to predict such result from the estaD-
lishment of Gould's line.

Chicago is famous for its public buildings,
and there is q history attached to every one
of these. There is not d public building In
that town that has not been built q dozen
times and as often pulled down and built over
again. The custom house, after 1t was fin
ished, was found to be constructed almost
wholly OF rotten stone. The consequence was
that it had to be improved and fixed up again
at a cost of several millions to the govern
ment. An investigation has just been made
into the new city hall by board Of architects
appointed for that purpose. Their report on
this subject uses very strong language. The
building, they declare, is fraud and an outrage
"a complete swindle from beginning to end.
There are no less than two hundred and forty
one serious defects in its construction, any
one Of which might bring the entire building
down on the heads Of those working In It..
And this explains, perhaps, how Chicago is
built up so rapidly.

The late drouth in this country Is probably
the most extensive that has ever afflicted It..
It has prevailed everywhere on the Pacific
slope, on the lakes, on the Gulf and on the
Atlantic. In this State, and, indeed. through
out the South, In Alabama, Mississippi and
Georgia, the corn crop was completely burned
up; in Florida the orange crop Is q complete
failure for lack Of rain; In West Texas, corn
and cotton are alike ruined and the cattle are
suffering for water; New Jersey reports q
similar condition, but in Virginia exists by
far the worst state OF affairs The drouth In
that State Is the greatest since 1916. The
corn crop is totally destroyed, the tobacco is
almost ruined, grass LIS lifeless, the very trees
are dying, streams are drying up, cattle are
dying Of thirst and mills are stopped for
want Of water. In Petersburg prayers are of
fered every Sunday in the churches for rain,
and last Thursday WAS observed In several
churches as day OF fasting and prayer for
rain

Clerks ana sherIffs.

Instead OF seven or eight, the number Of
clerks OF courts In this city Is reduced to one
for the civil district and one for the criminal
district court. The former Is an e1 oficio
clerk OF the court Of appeal, where the cases
are heard upon the records Of the district
court.
These clerks are to have salary of three
thousand dollars and to be elected by the
qualified voters Of the parish Their deputies
are limited to salaries of eighteen hundred
dollars, and their appointment must be APP
proved by the judge of the court to which they
ars assigned.
There Is to be civil and criminal sheriff to
be elected By the voters Of the parish every
four years. The civil sheriff is the executive
officer OF all the civil except the city courts, and
the criminal sheriff OF all the criminal courts.
The salary Of the civil sheriff Is fixed at ten
Thousand dollars and that of the criminal
sheriff at thirty-six hundred.
These officers are to collect such fees as the

night OF the twenty.sixth. He had passed bis
slxtieth year. He was the son OF Judge Ben
johnson, who emierated from Kentucky to
Arkansas before the latter became State,
and who during his whole life filled high judi
cial positions and the first place In the affec-
tions and veneration 81 the people Of Arkansas.
Judge Ben johnson was one Of the six broth
ers who constituted the famous Johnsons OF
Kentucky who have been so prominent
In the history OF the State. They were
James johnson, Richard NJ, John T.,
Ben and Henry johnson. a sister Of
these brothers was the mother OF Robert
j. Ward, OF whom our older citizens
retain SO warm a remembrance, as long
leading merchant and most benevolent and
publle-spfrited citizen. Jas. T. and Richard M
Johnson were the colonels OF the two Kentucky
regiments which achieved the great victory
over the British and the Indians under the
famous Tecumseh at the River Thames DUR
Ing the beginning OF 1912. Col. Richard was
elected Vice President OF the United States,
and was throughout his long life regarded as
one OF the most reliable OF the Democratic
chiefs throughout the West and South. The
brother, Ben johnson. was engaged all bis
life In judicial duties. Col. SEWER The first
Senator from Arkansas, married his daughter.
Robert W., starting In manhood with q
good education and very popular manners,
embarked early in public life, was elected to
the House OF Representatives In 1847, where he
exhibited great talent and efficiency, and In
1853 was chosen Senator and retained the po-
sftion until the civil war, when he returned to
Arkansas, engaged zealously In the Confede-
rate struggle and was sent to Montgomery
and Richmond as Senator from Arkansas.
At the close OF the war Col. johnson, having
lost his estate, repaired to Washington City
and engaged In the practice Of law In eonjunc-
tion with Albert Pike. He, however, retained
his residence In Arkansas, and at the last
election Of Senator OF that State was strongly
supported for the position. He had
previously filled 1t with great ability
and fidelity. There was no more pop
ular, influential or magnetic member Of
the old Senate than Col. Bob, OF Arkansas,
as he was Familiarity known to all frequenters
Of Washington City. Endowed with admira-
BILE good sense, tact and practical capacity,
his genial, frank and manly bearing and cap
tivating manners won him the esteem and
confidence OF all classes. He was thorough
Democrat, brave honorable and true gen.
tleman, an ardent patriot, citizen OF large
liberal and progressive opinions upon all pub
lie subjects, and In all social relations man
to be loved and trusted by all who were
brought into intercourse with him.

DR.. Reilly, Of Memphis, declares the fever
there this year to be much milder than In
1878, and that not more than 20 per cent of the
sick die. whereas last year 50 per cent Of them
succumbed. Statistics, however. do not ap-
pear to back DR.. Reilly up. There have been
145 cases Of fever reported this year and fifty
four deaths, and this undoubtedly shows 8
greater mortality than 20 per cent to the re-
ported cases. On the other hand only one
person who had the fever In Memphis In 1878
has had 1t again this year.

THE o1TY JUDICIARY.

We have given In our article OF yesterday
Oh epitome of the provisions OF our new con-
stitution relative to the organization of the
State judiciary. It Ia curious and quite
Objectionable anomaly In this instrument
that II creates an exceptional system Tor the
parish and city Of New Orleans.
court OF appeal of exclusive appellate
Jurisdiction Ia oil cases involving more than
two hundred dollars and less than one thou
sand is created by II. This court consists OF
Two judges, 10 be elected by the Legislature.
They must possess the qualifications pre-
scribed for the other circuit judges. Their
salaries are fixed at four Thousand dollars.
There 10 q curious distinction here as TO the
cases which are renewable on questions OF
law and those where the court will review
the whole case both In law and the facts.
When the amount In dispute is less than
five hundred dollars, the court will only re-
view the law questions involved. In all other
cases. which include those involving more
than five hundred dollars, the review will be
Of both the law and the facts.
We confess our inability to appreciate the
wisdom or principle Of this distinction.
There IL very iudiolous provision which
transfers to this court all causes now pending
on appeal from the parish Of Orleans lii the
Supreme Court, In which the amount In dis
pute ID less than one Thousand dollars. This
will operate greatly to the relief Of the over
laden docket OF the Supreme Court, and will
supply this new court with an abundance OF
work from the time Of Its organization, and
relieve 1t Of the tedlum Of waiting for appeals
from the district courts.

It Is proposed to celebrate this fall the an

1t Is proposed to celebrate this fall the an
niversary Of WashiDgton's great victory over
Lord CORVALLIS at Yorktown, October 10,
1871. The Courier Journal thinks that such q
celebration would do more to unite the North
and South than all the series OF centennials
which included Lexington. Concord and
Bunker Hill, for at Yorktown the people of
the North and South could meet together In
the very trenches where they fought each
other In 1852, and, overlooking that late fra
ternai strife, carry back their memories to
ISL when they fought, side BY side, for the
same cause
