The committee appointed to investigate the
charges preferred by Principal Cardoza Of the
Colored High School against his assistant,
Browne. continued its session last night In the
Franklin School building. DR. Francis was
the only member of the examining committee
absent. The cross-eXamination OF Cardoza
was continued by Mr.. Hammond, counsel for
Browne. Very little headway was made, owing
to the number of questions asked the witness
not gernane to the investigation. The inves-

Fleet Birds of Passage.

New York Dispatch.
There seems to be no doubt that
the "frigate bird" an inhabitant of
the tropical seas, is the swiftest bird
that flies. 1t has been impossible to
calculate its rate of flight within fix.
ed limits. The pectoral muscles are
immensely developed, and weigh
nearly one-fourth as much as the
whole body of the bird. Another
rapid flyer is the common "black
swift" 1t has been computed that
the great speed it attains is about 276
miles an hour, which, if maintained
for about six hours, would carry the
bird from its summer retreat in En-
gland to Central Africa. Our Amer
lean canvass back duck" is COM
puted to be capable of flying 200
miles an hour.

News Of the Fever.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA, Sept. g.
The spread of yellow fever through
the city continues steadily. Twenty
four new cases and two deaths are
reported today. A thunder and rain
storm this afternoon refreshed some
what the gloomy appearance of
things, and cleared somewhat the in
fected air of the city. 1t cleaned the
streets and flooded the sewers, and it
is hoped did much good. The citizens
who were permitted by the health
authorities took the first opportunity
offered by the special train for refu-
gees, put on for the first time today
to Atlanta. The first train went out
today bearing four partly-filled
coaches. Many of the citizens, who
had not yet made arrangements to
take this opportunity of escape, will
leave during the week, and it is ex-
pected that the population will be re-
duced to q minimum. ..
JACKSONVILLE, FLA.,H Sept. 81
The official bulletin for the twenty
four hours ending at 6 p. M. is as
follows: New cases 81, deaths, 2, one
of them being DR.. VIM. Il. Baldwin,
a leading physician, and the other
Geo. Tyler. This makes the total
number of cases reported up to date
295, and the total number of deaths
36. 1t is believed, however, that if
all the actual cases were reported the
total number would reach 400. The
weather is at present damp, and is
favorable to the spread of the cpl
demic. Increased efforts are to be
made to get the people out of the
city, the only sure method oflimiting
the number of victims of the disease.
VERY DIsCOURAGING.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA, Sept. A.
The record was again broken today.
There were forty-three new cases, but
only one death. Total number of
cases reported 1873, total deaths 81.
The conference between the health
officials and Surgeon-General Hamil-
ton today at Camp Perry resulted in
the assurance of certain aid from the
government to get the people out
of the city and sustain them; also to
do sanitary work. The outlook is
very discouraging.

United States Signal Corps Assistant
Wheat Reaches $l.OO in Chicago.

-
CHICAGO, Sept. 2.-Wheat sold
at 81 yesterday. 1t just touched the
figure, and for the May future at that,
but an actual sale of 10000 was made
at the price the bulls have long pre-
dicted, and the yell that went up has
not been heard on Change for many a
day. The prices ruled strong through
out both sessions, and the active fu-
lures scored an advance of about be.
The underlying cause of the strength
was the same that has doomed wheat
for the last few weeks-wet weather
in Europe, advancing foreign markets
and damaging reports from spring
wheat sections.
