the operative, but secures general uDifor-

This electric stop motion has already had a
most extensive application in England, and
is meeting with great favor from those of
our American manufacturers who have ex-
amined It.

YELLOW FEVER.
Marked Change at Pensacola-Absen-
tees Warned Against Hasty Return.

PENSACOLA, fla October 2s-Thirty-
three new cases of yellow fever and one
death were officially reported yesterday at
the Office Of the Board of Health, showing
slight falling of in the number of cases.
Total number Of cases to date 2,166, and
III deaths.
PENSACOLA, October r29.-Thirty-three new
cases OF yellow fever and one death were
reported yesterday. These figures indicate
an abatement. The only doubt is whether
1t will be permanent or temporary in case OF
a continued absence Of frost. The weather
yesterday was warm and somewhat upset.
tied. The total number Of cases to Satur-
dav is 2,199, and the deaths 172.
DR.. Hsgis, President of the Board Of
Health, is again on duty. DR.. Whiting, the
Secretary, is still disqualified. Messrs Brent
and Walthall are both on their feet, after
temporary suspension OF activity from slight
attacks.
Only nine new cases of yellow fever and
one death were reported to-day. This sud.
den and remarkable decline In the number
OF new cases causes great surprise, melting
hope in some and skepticism in others. It
Is the more extraordinary as there
has been 10 frost, and the
weather is unseasonably warm,
Some believe that material for the fever is
exhausted, and others suggest that the ply
scians are tired Of reporting, and have
abandoned It as q useless and improbable
routine. In any case there is ground for
hopefulness, but it would be fatal
presumption in sbsentees to think
Of returning until ore or more
than one frost shall have put an end to the
infection. The Board of Health met yester-
day, and in anticipation OF probable
abatement Of the fever, passed resolutions
OF warning against this too frequent error.
NEW ORLEANS, October 2S.-The Pea
yltRe's Pensacola special reports thirty
three new cases and one death to-day.
New YORK, October 2S The Pensacola
relief fund to-day was augmented to the
extent OF $3.50, making an aggregate OF over
81 $50.
BROWNSVILLE, October 2S-Cof. Lister,
OF tue NineteeRth Infantry, who was down
with yellow fever, is cOnValesceDt.
In the past few days some new cases have
developed here, the largest proportion Of
which are new arrivals. The parties from
TsmpicO put across the river yesterday by
Health Onlcer Wolfe are Americans. They
complain against his harshness and Illegal
ity. The weather continues very hot.
BROWNSVILLE, TEXAS, October 29.-Tle
cases Of fever developed lately are pro-
uOunced by the physicians malaTial and not
yellow fever. Some persons Just arrived
are, however, down with the latter
disease, but are doing well. The sickness is
no longer needed, IL having been considered
as over some time ago. Mail communica-
tions and politics are the most engrossing
public topics. The weather is hot.

THE STATE ROAD LEASE.
The Progress of the Case In the Supreme
Court of the State.


1t was supposed that the Macon Circuit
would have been finished by this time, and
that the Supreme Court would Yesterday
hear the case relative to the lease OF the
Western and Atlantic Railroad. The case
goes 10 the Supreme Court on an order
of prohibition issued by that court
to prevent Judge Willis from proceeding
with the trial of the case by a Jury.
When the question OF the sufficiency
Of the bond or the lessees and the question
of the ownership Of a majority OF the stock
within the State of Georgia were raised be-
fore Judge Willis, counsel for the lessees
argued two elaborate demurrers, both Of
which were overruled. Bills of exceptions
were presented and Judge Willis certified
them, but ordered that the trial proceed in
the court below on the merits of the case,
Notwithstanding the exception to his ruling
on the demurrer. Counsel for the lessees
applied to the Supreme Court for writ of
prohibition to prevent Judge Willis from
hearing the case on its merits pending the
appeal contained IN the bill of exceptions
signed by him. The application for prohi-
bitfon was granted and proceedings thus
stopped in the court below. The Supreme
Court will hear argument as to whether the
case should proceed in spite OF the excep-
ttons TO the rulings on the demurrers. It
is thought that the Macon circuit will be
concluded next Tuesday and this case will
then come up for argument Wednesday. A
sharp legal battle is anticipated.

THE ARMY.
suggestions of the Paymaster General

WASHINGTON, October 2S.-The Psymas-
ter General, in his annual report, recon-
mends that the act Of July 80 be so amended
as to allow, in the discretion Of the Secretary
Of War, one month leave Of absence to the
officers OF the army without deduction of
pay or allowance, for each year during which
such absence has not been taken. He thinks
it would be better still If all laws affecting
the pay of officers while on leave
were repealed. He also recommends
the repeal of that provision in the act of
July as to mileage over land grant railroads,
saying that is is desirable that paymasters
should be notified within a reasonable time,
say one year from the time the paymasters
are actually made, Of the condition of their
accounts In the hand OF the Auditor and
Comptroller.
He says that the enlisted men of the army
continue to avail themselves Of the benefits
OF the deposits system. He recommends,
In this connection, chat the act of May 15,
1872, be so amended as to slloW interest on
a mininunI deposit of five dollars from the
date OF deposit, and. further, that the bene-
fits OF the deposit system be extended to the
commissioned officers OF the army.

three or four nights, and then the family
discovered that she had beau. He
came regularly every night after that,
and three or four nights ago the Colonel
was at the back gate waiting for him.
When the young man appeared the Col
onel threw whole iceberg into his tones
as he inquired:
"Well, sir. did you come here to

TIRED TRAMPERS.
Close of the Walking Match.

New YORK, October 2s-Shortly after
six O'Clock the pedestrians retired to their
tents to prepare themselves for their nights
appearance. As the four staggered into
their houses It was too evident that the
strain upon them, had bsen enormous.
There was but one thing to cheer them-in
few hours this struggle on the
track would be over. The gar
den became enlivened.s At z o'clock
there were but faint hopes OF getting
crowd to witness the dying struggle OF the
Tour pedestrians left of the nine confident
men who began the long walk on Monday
morning. At O'Clock the men came on the
track for the last time. a considerable
crowd had then gathered In the garden,
aud the band struck up a lively
air. Fitzgerald was dressed in a
new suit Of white flannel tights.
Noremac was freshened up q little In a
white racing suit with blue silk cap and
breech cloth. Herty stuck to his purple
colors, and seemed better able to bear the
torture Of the last miles than the Others.
Hughes looked shiny IN a new silk shirt, but
no trappings could light up the deathly pal
lor OF his face and almost idiotIc stare of his
sunken eyes. Once as he was passing the
scorers stand he looked at the clock appeal
inglY, mutely begging It to move faster to
the END. Some one shouted: "Take him
off the track" A woman in one
OF the boxes said disapprovingly /:
"WhY, the idea. Let him 90 on"
The men ran little together, with the ex-
ceptioa OF Hughes, whose legs sank under
him when he attempted to quicken his pace.
Rowell came into the garden at nine O'Clock
and watched from the box the last laus of
his former rivals. Coming near ten O'Clock,
the audience was very enthusiastic, and
cheered the walkers Justify as they ran
around the track.
The gross receipts, including the bar and
all other privileges, is $26, ,373 The rent is
$4,000. and the other expenses, including
10 per cent. to Peter Durnea and advertis-
Ing, will reduce the net receipts to almost
nothing.
At ten O'Clock the race was a thing
OF the past, the following being the
scores: Fitzgerald 577. Noremac 567,
Herty SAL, and Hughes 525.

EMBARRASSED. The Rev. Mr.. -
was one of the most bashful men in the
profession and was constantly getting
into scrapes through his nervous mis-
takes. at one time he rose in his pulpit
to give out the hymn, "This world is all
a fleeting show" and clearing his throat
he struck high pitch of voice and began
solemnly:
"This world is all floating shoe. )"
Everybody smiled except the deacons,
and the minister was covered with con-
fusion as he began again:
"This world is all shouting flow."
This only made matters worse, and
the unhappy man cleared his throat
with tremendous force and began once
again:
"Thls world is all floating She"
Then he slammed the hymn.book
down. and wiping his clammy brow,
said:
Brethren, for some raason cannot
read that hymn as it should be read: we
will omit 1t and the choir will please
sing the grand old lines beginning:
Just as l am without one fea. -

Will take place between members from

ahead Of several other candidates.

Photography Of the interior OF boiler by
the electric light is reported in the Manches-
ter, England, Times: The boiler was at the
marine exhibition, Tynemouth. The water
used in the boiler was very hard, forming
scales quickly. When the boiler was open
ed, the scales fell to the bottom, the CORFU
gated flues hayiL & stripped themselves from
scales. The appearance Of the interior was
such as to make a photograph desirable.
The pictures made by aid of the electric
light were entirely successful, and showed
that the interiors Of the machinery can be
taken In this way. The patentees
claimed that the hdes were self-stripping,
and this experiment helps 10 confirm their
