SATURDAY, DECEMBER Is, So

New Orleans stacks up the NOR
tally bills as the winter comes on,
and this increase in the death rate
is directly due to inefficient drain
age and imperfect sewerage. These
two evils will knock the stutItng
out of San Antonio in time unless
they are promptly guarded
against. SO long as the people are
scattered over large tracts of ter
ritOry this evil is not very observ-
able, but as soon as conditions
change and the population be-
comes more dense the baleful ef-
fpCts will be seen. There is but one
preventive, perfect drainage and
an efficient system of sewerage.

SCOTS. Emulsion

of Cop-LvER OIL, with hypophosphites of lime and soda,
is a nufyxysaI Sbyfur nouyishment. 1t makes the weak strong.
and preserves strength in those fortunate enough to possess
it. Consumptives and all whose lungs are weak, can not
we'll get along without it. Thin persons need the flesh it
supplies. Those whose blood is impoverished, either by
chronic ailments or by the strain of Winter, and children
whose energy is Slapped by growth, ought to take SCOTS
EMULSION. In fact, almost everybody needs in the spring
the ready nourishment it furnishes.
The reason f7 this universal benefit of SCOTS EMUH- SION is in the
of the preparation. ii a food rich in fat, and is in such a forr that
te swtemc can utilise lis PROPERTIES u1Hom effort All fat has TO be emulshed,
OF broken no into tiny particles before it can be assmiated. The fat in
SCOTS EMULSION is already emuSihed, and the oil is made palataole.

of the following day. While the men had
been hoping to join their comrades OF the
Second and Third companies, who had
preceded them 10 the Peninsula, informa-
ton had come that the enemy oc-
cupied Alexandria and that Federal
troops were Fastening TO seize Manassas
junction. At that time Captain Delaware
Kemper's battery was the only artillery
in that region. General Bonham moved
with his command at the same time 10
the same place, ana the HowitZers were
10 his brigade. This unex-
pected separation from the other compa-
MES of the battalion was a serious uls-
appointment TO the men or the FIRST

But 1t IS the most wantOn calumny to
say that she was e0quette. Nothing could
have been more foreign to her instincts than
that.
'She was a refined. highly educated, at

the highest and purest character. She
would have been the last person to indulge
In or conntenance any sin. Is is impossible
for one familiar with her sweet, absolutely
sincere nature to think of such thing as
deceit or the wanton exercise of blandish-
ments in connection with her. She never
went through the country breaking hearts
as stated IN the dispatches, and she was not
engaged TO Salvation Army soldier down
here. OF course, she mas had countless ad-
mirers, and, being an extremely prominent
worker attracting much attention every.

COAL-BUNKERS IN DANGER.
A Lively and Expensive Blaze on
Howard Street.

What came near being one of the most
disastrous fires of the present era took place
last evening.
The alarm was turned in at 9:40 p NJ
from box SO. and the San Pedro lodging
house, on Mission and Steuart streets, was
found to be in full blaze. 1t is a two-story
frame building. and the fire was caused by
the upsetting of coal-oil lamp by one of
the servants of the house.

but the fire gained headway in spite of
their efforts. Soon the building was COM
pletely gutted.
Adjoining the house are the coal-bunkers
of Jehn Rosenfeid's Sens. Here the coal
bunkers got ablaZe and came within an ace
OF going. However, they we're got out in
time TO save catastrophe.
The lodgng-house was rented by August
johnson and owned by Hermann Hers
Underneath the house were number of
saloons and chop-houses, with a BARRIERS
and taflor's shop and three goud-slzed
saloons. The saloon on the corner of East
and Howard streets was swned by Warnke
Bros.
The whole building extends from East TO
Steuart streets on the north side of Howard.
1t was completely gutted. Johnson had a
saloon and restaurant IN connection with
his lodging house. The damage is estimated
at So, ,0O0.

The committee appointed to make az

aid of the Youths Directory assembled last
evening in the hall of the institution named

sigued them.

From the reports of the Rev. Father
Crowley it appeared that there has been an
exceptionally heavy drain upon the re-
sources Of the Directory during the past
year, and at the same time, owing presum-
ably to the dullness of the times, large
falling off in the voluntary contributions
upon which alone the institution depends
for support At no time in its history has
the Youths Directory been the recipient of
aid from the public exchequer. The object
of the proposed festival which will be held
in the Mechanics Pavilion early in Sep
tember. is to raise funds for this charity,
and. Judging from the manner in which
the undertaking is being conducted, there
Is every likelihood that it will prove grand
iuceess.
The entertainment will be of the most
varied and interesting character and will
extend over a period of ten days. Many
novel features will be introduced In order
to attract public attention. not the least eff
fective of which will be an elegantly
finished Irish jaunting-car and set OF har-
ness, which the committee have already
ordered shipped from the manu- factory In
Dublin to this city. The vehicle and har-
ness will be disposed of during the fair.

These boats were soon picking up those

these lost got out OF the ship, but were
caught In the vortex or scalded to death by

the sea hereabouts is infested with sharks.
1t is the duty Of the marines when col

When the Camperdown struck the Victoria,
