hold the suit together until he had buried him.

when his head reached the surface once more

He felt something entanging his feet and

The Proctor Case.

The autopsy on the body of Prof. Proctor
failed 10 show the cause Of his death. This
doctors stated that although they failed to
find anything that proved that he died from
yellow fever. they found nothing that was
incompatible with death from that disease
There is no doubt that Prof. Proctor was
not treated with judgment and discretion
| by the board of health of New York. II
be really had yellow fever, his removal
from the hotel TO the hospital, and that, too.
on day when the weather was cold and
| rainy, was calculated TO hasten the disease
to fatal termination. 1t appears also that
big dose of brandy and soda was admins
tered to him when he was leaving the hotel.
Is brandy and soda good thing for per
son who is suffering from yellew fever in It's
advanced stagel
One of Prof. Proctor's Florida friends,
who is now in New York, and who was his
neighbor does not believe that the professor
died from yellow fever. He thinks that his
disease was malignant type of malarlal
fever, and he says that he has known OF
instances where black vomit preceded death
in that fever.
1t seems that Prof. Proctor had been in
perfect health all summer until within
few days before he left his home. During
those few days he showed symptoms of ma
larial fever. He went to Gainesville, Fla,
on Sept. 5, and thence 70 New York by way
of Live Oak, Waycross and Savannah. He
could not have been very sick when he
passed the quarantine officers on his way
north. If he had been they would have no.
ticed 1t. The conductor of the Pullman car
noticed that he was not in good health, and
got the idea somehow that he was suffering
from malaria.
From the testimony it is quite apparent
that Prof. Proctor had been suffering from
malarial fever for week or more when he
reached New York, and it may have been
that disease from which he died. 1t is not
improbable, however, that he became in
fected with yellow fever along the route,
and that the malarial fever from which he
was suffering made him an easy victim Of
that disease 1t is a well-known fact that
in yellow fever epidemics those attacked by
other fevers show very marked Symphonic
of the prevailing fever.
But whether Prof. Proctor suffered from
malarial OF yellow fever there was nothing
to justify the treatment he received in New
York. If he had yellow fever, there was
more danger of spreading the Infection by
removing him at the stage Of the disease at
which he was removed than by permitting
him to remain in his room in the hotel until
the disease had run its course His removal
not only endangered his life, but brought
him in contact with many more people
than would have been permitted to APP
preach him in the hotel. Doubtless great
deal more will be heard of the Proctor case.

Evils of Quarantine.

A suggestion has been sent to the marine
hospital bureau, from the permanent relief
committee Of Philadelphia, that the gov
eminent place military Gordon around all
infected places to prevent the further
spread Of the yellow fever The suggestion
is a very good one, and such Gordon as is
suggested would be vastly better, far less
expensive and immeasurably less obstruct-
i've than the present method OF quaran-
timing against infected places.
Now, nearly all of Florida is cut off from
direct communication with the rest Of the
world, and each healthy town in that state
has q quarantine against each Infected
place Not only are these quarantine regu-
lations of the most rigid kind in Florida,
but every town within hundreds Of miles
of that state has querantined against her
fever-stricken places.
What ought TO have been done as soon as
the fever appeared in Jacksonville was TO
have put a Gordon around the place, and 10
have kept open one outlet to the north.
The cars upon that should have been locked
when passing through any town, and they
should have been placed in charge of fever
proof officials AS soon as the first exodus
was over no one should have been permit
ted to leave the city, except through refugee
camps, such as have been established by the
surgeon general The same sort of Gordon
should have been placed around other
places in which the fever appeared. Had
that course been pursued, there would have
been no occasion for the local guarantees,
which stop travel and business.
The evils of the present system Of quar-
antine were never more clearly illustrated
than by the action Of the health officer of
Texas the other day. Without warning the
city Of New Orleans was notified last Sun
day morning through the newspapers that
the whole state of Texas had quarantined
against her Nobody seems to know why
the quarantine was established, but the peo-
pie Of New Orleans and Texas know that
their intercourse was suddenly checked and
their great business interests jeopardizei.
Perhaps the Texas health officer heard
rumors that there was yellow fever in New
Orleans. If he did, he ought to have in
vestigated them before taking such has:y
action. In our dispatches yesterday it was
stated that the quarantine against New Ut
leans had been removed; from which it
would appear that if there were rumors of
fever in that city they were false. But the
damage that was done by the hasty action
of the health officer-can that be repairedl
1t is time that congress clothed the gov
eminent with authority to take charge of
guarantees, and TO establish such rules and
regulations as would give the people ample
protection, while permitting the greatest
freedom in travel and traffic consistent with
safety.

The democrats have wept since
They've read your bright acceptance,
And at Cleveland scowl. and mutter
For leaving out the butter;
The butter to butter their bread.
So churn up the counties,
And promise them bounties
That the mugwumps who wandered
May flock to your standard
For butter to butter their bread.
And farmers will bless you,
And milkmaids caress you,
And republicans utter
Panegyrics on butter,
So that it may butter their bread.

Kills the Cleveland sensation,
Gives plank to the nation
With a solid foundation
To fight on for butter and bread.
What subject to write about!

The theme Is so glorious,

Tho your churn yields no butter or bread
