Stricter Every Day.

and the adoption of some new precaution.

Jesup were strengthened to-day. The
Gordon of guards on the other avenues of

apprehension is in measure subsiding and
people feel reasonably secured. Sanitation
is by no means overlooked. Every nook and
corner is undergoing rigid investigation,
and vigorous measures are adopted when
day before the quarantine was estab-
lished, family named Raven moved
to the city from Jacksonville. While moth
ing in the least suspicious has manifested
itself. the family has been removed from
town and placed in quarantine in Taylor's
chapel, five miles from The city, where they
are made as comfortable as circum-
stances will permit Their house and
furniture were most thoroughly fumigated,
and next Monday, if no suspicious syInp-
tons develop, they will be permitted to re-
turn. The family accepted their isolation
with resignation, acknowledging its
wisdom.
The board of health are de-
termined to work with all
vigor for the safety of the people. The
mayor is issuing clean bills of health to all
persons leaving the city. 1t reminds one of
war times to see people filing IN to get their
passes.
