The rir.t Oa.e of Yellow Fever.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, A pril 24.-Dr. Daniel president of the State board of health, has declared that the death of Mrs. Charles De- mont, of Sanford, was from yellow fever. She had been sick two weeks and her health had been bad for months. The case was not of a virulent or infectious type, but was sporadic. There are no other cases in the family and the house is isolated and all pre- cautions have been taken. Sanford has vol untarily embargoed her pc ople from leaving for fifteen days and has prohibited their traffic from p. m. to a. m. There are no fears of an epidemic. Under the new laws every point in the State is kept under close watch on reports of doubtful cases. On re- quest from citizens the State health officers visit the town and make an exhaustive ex- animation. The Sanford caseis the first and only one this year. The State board has an- pie funds for prosecuting it's work and more would be readily appropriated if needed The board is composed of the. best medical and sanitary experts in the State, clothed with almost despotic powers and 1t may al- most be said that neither panic nor e1- tensivs epedemic is possible in Florida this year.

Dangerous Use of Strong Purgatiyes

Most pills, purgatives and Bitter Waters which act quickly upon the bowels, irritate and often de- stroy the mucous coats of the stomach and bowels Indeed their cathartc action is directly caused by the irritation of the bowels which they produce Their action should te soothing and stimulating, instead of irritating. A continued use of such remedies produces chronic inflammation of the stomach and bowels. This often ends in dangerous disease: The use of the genuine imported Carlsbad Sprudel Salt is highly recommended as aperi. ent laxative and diuretc, because it's action is due solely to its solvent and stimulating properties It soothes and allays inflammation, and is therefore
 much preferable to all strong purgatives and Bitter Waters.
 Beware of limitations. Dr. Tobofdts lecture on Carlsbad Sprudel Salt and pamphlets mailed free. Eisner & Mendeson Co.,, sole agents, Barclay st., New York.

A SAD ACCIDENT.

Five Year old Boy Run Over and
 Killed by a Wagon on Ashmun
 Street.
 An accident occurred on Ashmun street about 4:s0 yesterday afternoon by which Alexander Ilg, the little son of Lucas Ilg, of 27 Bristol street, lost his life.
 Delan s. Hotchkiss had driven from North Haven, with large load of brick, weighing seventy hundred pounds. When near Web ster street, he stopped his team of four hor- ses, and got off to ask Patrick Meaney of 30 Canal street, in what direction to go. He talked with Meaney few minutes.
 While he was talking, young Ig climbed upon one of the back wheels, unseen by Hotehkiss. When Hotchkiss started up Meaney shouted to him and a child was heard to scream. The wagon had gone but four feet. Meansy and Hotchkiss rushed back and found that the child had been run over, and was nearly smashed to death.
 Medical Examiner White was on hand at once and he found that the child's spinal column had been broken, the wheel passing over the small of the back. The child was taken into Mrs. Shay's saloon, No. Ill Ash nun street, where in few minutes he gasped his last.
 Medical Examiner White told Hotchkiss he could go, as he was satisfied that he was in no way to blame, but that he had better go to the police office later. He did so, and was arrested on a warrant sworn out by City Attorney Daley, charging him with breach of the peace.
 Lieutenant Wrinn was going to hold him for manslaughter. Mir. Daley said that from what he heard MT. Hotehkiss was not to blame, but he must hold him until the facts were known.
 Fred I. Shares gave $500 bonds for Hotch- kiss. The latter has worked for Shares for nine years, and the latter says he has always been sober and faithful. MT. Hotehkiss feels badly about the affair. He is about thirty years old, and has relatives. Frank Kelley, ir.. is his attorney.

G0nHk NNfeA.

Patrick McKeon, charged with manslaugh- ter in causing the death of E. 0. Gobeir at the Yale memorial building by letting stone fall upon his head, was defended by Attorney T. J. Fox yesterday. Foreman Charles F. Williams, Dr. N. c. White and Philip McGibney were called as witnesses. Both Williams and McGibney testified that McKeon was as rule very careful, cautious man. Mir. Williams testified that soon after 1 o'clock he ordered MeKeon to gather up the rubbish and debris which was on the sec ond floor and lower it down through the stair well by means of block and fall. After giving these directions he left him, but re- turned soon after and saw McKeon lowering down according to directions. There was a number of large stones scattered about the floor at the time which were to be lowered down the same way as the barrels of debris.
 McGibney testified that he was working with McKeon clearing away the rubbish which was lowered to him.
 Dr. M. c. White, medical examiner, testi- fled to the nature of the wounds inflicted by the stone.
 McKeon said he was cleaning up rubbish in the tower. He lowered some stones with a hand rope and some were dropped down. It was McGibney's duty to warn all passers. by and also to signal to McKeon when all was ready. He did this number of times, but the deceased came out of passageway immediately after he had signaled to McKeon to drop the stone, Gobeir was struck squarely on top of the head by the stone, which weighed about 46 pounds.
 Fudge Pickett in rendering his decision said that he thought that it was his duty to bind the accused over to the July term of the Superior court. Bonds were furnished to the amount of $1 ,000 by Bartholomew MeKeon of Davenport avenue.
