JACKS0NYILLE'S SCOURGE.
The Condition in the Yellow Fever Dis
trict Rapidly Growing Worse.

Nav ORLEANS, Aug. 30.-A special to
the Picayune from Jacksonville, Fla. says
The situation today is not only no better
but worse. The great jump in the num-
Der of new cases caused dismay among the
people in town and trains out were crowded
from 1 until 2. Health certificates are
now issued daily by the board of health.
1t has been decided here by the auxiliary
association to try to get moved out to the
camps so as to depopulate the city and by
this means endeavor to check the fever S
course. The poor who are unable to go
will be assisted and every effort made to get
rid of large number of the poor people.
New cases today spring up right and LETT
and the prospects are good for an increase
in the number of cases tonight. Thirteen
cases were reported up to noon with three
deaths This rapid increase helps on the
exodus and will carry out 800 people this
week. The number discharged could not
be learned last night, but DR.. Mitchell
thinks it approximately light. All that
can be done had been done already, but in
lection seems to creep out IN the Grand
Union hotel neighborhood with alarming
rapidity. One gratifying feature of the
situation is the mild form of many of the
new cases. There are exceptions TO thls
rule, however.

tion and caused resolution yesterday

Something About ''Fairy Rings

The fairy rings Of England, SO Ia
nous in folk lore, began at bit of ma
nure dropped by COW. or by birds. A
mushroom growth it was that ate up the
nitrogen of the soil. No one noticed
their beginning, but after awhile would
be seen a circle Of grass, and within it a
barren spot. The grass Of the edge, or
ring. was deeper green and more lu1uri-
ant, but inside whatever grew was
stunted Mushrooms of different sorts
abounded and crowded up to the edge Of
the grass. These are terrible eaters Of
nitrogen, carbon, phosphorus, potash.
As they exhaust the soil their n1ycelium,
or seed, extends outward, and, thus
springing up, ezhausts again. But the
decay Of the mycelium. which is so rich
in plant food, frs. fattens and feeds

A rich ring Of dark, stout grass is formed
BY the deposition of carbon and phos-
pilates, and then this is crowded back
and cut By the craft Of the toadstocls.
All this the folk did not use to know,
but instead they saw it to be the work OF
fairies.-Nary e. Spencer ii Globe-Dem.

Cheating the City Directory.

A few days ago I desired to call upon
young friend who Is reckoned among
the swells of New York. I had forgotten
his address, and turned to the directory.
To my surprise, for he had lived in the
city all his life and was well known
about town, bis name did not appear
there then hunted for the names Of
several mutual friends, from whom ex-
pected to obtain the desired information,
and, to my increased establishment, I
found that their names; too, were
omitted. Fortunately found copy Of
the ''Society List" the directory that
pretends to contain the names Of the elite
Of the city, and in that way discovered
the object Of my search.
1t was while talking to my friend later
on that II loosely referred to his having
been dropped from the list of citizens.
"Why, my dear fellow" was his re-
ply, ''there's nothing accidental about
that. It is the result Of design, and I
congratulate myself on having been
clever enough to keep clear Of those
deucedly persistent fellows that go
around collecting names"

Of gunny cloth had been losing money for

point last September and October that all
the smaller mills had to stop and the
larger mills run only To Novem-
Der and December instead OF running
right along. They were hoping that the
new year would leave them little better

Mills bill was introduced and bagging

MNRE HAN fn6 WEARS OLD.

GALVESTON, Tex, Aug. 30.-Mrs. Nancy
Jones, widow of Sharach Jones and
mother OF Mrs. Herman, OF this city, died
Tuesday night of extremes old age.
Though her age is fixed at 100 years it is
probable that it exceeds that by several
years. as her familiarity with scenes aud
incidents dated back to the first year of
the revolutionary war. The News pub
lished an interview with Mrs. Jones some
four or five years ago at which time,
though much eufeebled by old age, she
still retained her memory to a marked
degree Though unable to state her age,
she remembered the circumstance of her
father taking his flint and steel rifle from
the walls of the old log cabin and going to
battle for American independence.

CHICAGO,S WORKWOMEN.

CHICAGO, Aug. 30.-Some of the leading
newspapers of Chicago have for several
weeks past been investigating the wages
and conditions of the working girls and
women of Chicago, and publishing the ac-
counts furnished by the daily reports of
the revolving conditions under which the
white female slaves live. The agitation
gave added interest to the closing meeting
today at the fremont house of an organi-
Zation known as the Working Girls Rest
and Fresh Air association. Reports were
read from the several ladies in charge of
the work showing that a total of 125 work
girls have been sent out OF the city for va
cations this summer. Letters from the
girls and those who entertained them were
read. All were enthusiastic in support of
the organization. Arrangements for send
ing out a few additional and specially
urgent cases were made. A resolution
thanking the Inte-Oceau for assuming the
society's expense for transportation was
passed unanimously and it was decided TO
prosecute the work on q much more eX-
tenSive scale.
