deeper and deeper into the mysteries OF

something. "Why doesn't il :" exclaim-

that flaw had been detected In his calcu-

the work. There had indeed been mis-

"It doesn't give us Tit gives us T."
And from that hour Professor Newton
looked upon Mr. Phelps as mathematical

from yellow-ieyer occurred here during the
past week.
GUAYNAs, Mex, September 22.-Nine
deaths from yellow-fever have been re-
ported during the last twenty-four hours.
The thermometer has risen to go. Fears
are again entertained that under the great
heat and filthy condition Of the streets the
fever will increase and spread. Eleven
new cases were reported yesterday. Not
enough rain fell to clean the streets, and
this has tended to increase the malaria.
The increase OF deaths and new cases has
driven the people almost frantic, not know
ing whether they should flee from the city
or remain in the hope that the worst has
passed. The members Of the Board OF
Health have proved themselves utterly in
competent to deal with the matter.
